Speaker 1: what's happening? Kim? Hey? Hey, dj M B Hey, charlotmin
Speaker 1: Hey angelay m okay. So I just want to take
Speaker 1: it off my chest that Yesterday I had a situation
Speaker 1: with my baby dad and he and I have been
Speaker 1: working on our relationship to get stronger, and there was
Speaker 1: a situation where his friend was like involved because she
Speaker 1: was in the car in the vehicle with us, and
Speaker 1: she just made a comment to me where he kind
Speaker 1: of compared us or said out live like y'all are
Speaker 1: common similar and her joking way, she was like, well,
Speaker 1: there there's no comparison, so don't compare me to her,
Speaker 1: and kind of got real rude in her situation and
Speaker 1: you just made me feel uncomfortable, which I know I
Speaker 1: should have spoke up for myself, but he did correct
Speaker 1: the situation once I got the car, but she has
Speaker 1: nothing to do with what he and I have going
Speaker 1: on and us taking here about order, and I just
Speaker 1: feel like she's real rude and just respect. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: never let other people's energy affect what you have going on.
Speaker 1: And that's not his fault that she said that, And
Speaker 1: you can't let her affect you that way because that
Speaker 1: was her intention, and you ain't gonna swing on him.
Speaker 1: A lot of times people intentionally try to say and
Speaker 1: do nasty things and you have to let it slide
Speaker 1: because you know that's what they want. And the best
Speaker 1: thing you can do is not react unless you feel like,
Speaker 1: unless you feel like swinging on him. All right, But
Speaker 1: why didn't I catch it in that moment? Like, Yo,
Speaker 1: she's being rude to me. Let me really think about
Speaker 1: and speak up for myself. So kind of mad at myself,
Speaker 1: like I should have spoke up, but no, you to something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you got when you got a lot of things
Speaker 1: going on and you know you're blessed and you know
Speaker 1: you're not stressing about nothing. Sometimes you miss stuff like that.
Speaker 1: You'd be like, was he trying to play me? Or
Speaker 1: was she trying to play me? Did you catch your later,
Speaker 1: But who cares let them die in their own misery?
Speaker 1: Well that's true, Thank you. We'll have a good one,

Speaker 1: it off your chest. Eight undred five eight five one
Speaker 1: oh five one. If you need to vent hit us
Speaker 1: up right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. It's topic times, the phone call eight hundred
Speaker 1: and five, eight five, one oh five. Want to join
Speaker 1: it to the discussion with the breakfast Club, talk about
Speaker 1: it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now if he
Speaker 1: just joined us, we're talking about a statement that did
Speaker 1: he made? And can we play a statement? Black vote
Speaker 1: is not gonna be for free? You know what are
Speaker 1: we getting in return for our vote? Nothing has changed
Speaker 1: for Black America. And in order for us to vote
Speaker 1: for Biden, we can't be taken for granted like we
Speaker 1: always are because we're it's supposed to be Democrats, or
Speaker 1: because people are afraid of Trump. It's whoever's gonna take
Speaker 1: care of our community, whoever wants to make a deal.
Speaker 1: It's business at this point. You know, we can't trust politicians.
Speaker 1: Body needs to make it clear that he's going to
Speaker 1: change the lives and quality of life of black and
Speaker 1: brown people. I will hold the vote hostage if I
Speaker 1: have to. First of all, I want to say, what
Speaker 1: did he said in that video? Is what I've been
Speaker 1: on for the past year. That's why every presidential candidate
Speaker 1: that came to the breakfast club, I asked him, do
Speaker 1: they have a specific Black agenda? Because I made up
Speaker 1: my mind a long time ago that I was going
Speaker 1: to vote my interests, and my interests are black people.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I'm not voting for individuals.
Speaker 1: And to me, the concept is simple. It's when you
Speaker 1: do business. When you do deals, you go in to
Speaker 1: negotiate the terms of what you want. That's how we
Speaker 1: need to start treating democrats. If not, black people will
Speaker 1: be voting out of fear for the rest of their lines.
Speaker 1: And if you're being honest with yourself, conditions of black
Speaker 1: people have been the same in America for decades, regardless
Speaker 1: of who the president is, and we will not make
Speaker 1: any real systemic change in our communities until we change
Speaker 1: our approach to politics. I don't think it's too much
Speaker 1: to ask of a candidate like Joe Biden who owes
Speaker 1: his political life to black people, then meet some demands
Speaker 1: for black people. Number One, you want to know what
Speaker 1: those demands are. And this is what did he messed
Speaker 1: up because he didn't say what he wanted number one.
Speaker 1: I think a black woman running mate is a must
Speaker 1: that should be non negotiable period. Joe Biden already said
Speaker 1: he would put a black woman on the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1: He committed to that. Great, we need that. And most importantly,
Speaker 1: Biden needs to adopt one of these a black agendas
Speaker 1: and make it his own. I've been talking to y'all
Speaker 1: about Black Futures, lab Black agenda, which urges elected officials
Speaker 1: in government to make Black people powerful through policy in
Speaker 1: the economy and our democracy, our families, our society, our communities,
Speaker 1: and the legal system. Joe Biden can take things from that.
Speaker 1: He can take things from Bloomberg's economic Black agenda, like
Speaker 1: wanting to invest seventy billion dollars in low income neighborhoods
Speaker 1: throughout the country, increase the number of black homeowners, and
Speaker 1: doubling the number of African American small businesses. If he's
Speaker 1: elected president, he can adopt all of those things to him,
Speaker 1: and he should. It's quite simple, and I don't think
Speaker 1: it's anything wrong with making those demands. But there is
Speaker 1: a lot of people out there that says, hey, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna vote for anybody that's against Trump and the reason
Speaker 1: this conversation came up is because Kenny Burns, who's somebody
Speaker 1: that used to work with Diddy and k Rockefeller. He's
Speaker 1: in the industry, he says puff this statement is very irresponsible.
Speaker 1: At this point, the only option is to get Trump
Speaker 1: out of office, Come on, Champ. Encouraging people a standby
Speaker 1: is not an option. Hashtag vote a die and needing
Speaker 1: his comments. He didn't. He didn't say standby? Did he said,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold my vote hostage? What happens when you
Speaker 1: hold something hostage? You hold it hostage and tell your
Speaker 1: demand a met What is wrong? What's wrong with ask?
Speaker 1: I know, but there's nothing irresponsible about demanding something for
Speaker 1: your vote. The only thing did he did remotely wrong
Speaker 1: in that if he didn't say what he wanted He
Speaker 1: said black agenda, but I guess he was too vague
Speaker 1: on that. Now, what do you think? Yes, I was
Speaker 1: actually looking at Joe Biden's website to see what he has,
Speaker 1: because they have this whole page highlights him Joe Biden's
Speaker 1: agenda for the black community and what he's planning to
Speaker 1: do so it says he's investing over seventy billion dollars
Speaker 1: in HBCUs and he's also doing loan forgiveness that works
Speaker 1: for public servants and double funding for the State Small
Speaker 1: Business Credited initiative to three billion dollars to assist small businesses,
Speaker 1: especially those owned by people of color. He's talking about
Speaker 1: investing in the communities through housing, and then I know
Speaker 1: we also discussed this task force that he is planning
Speaker 1: to do, and then I know he has Bernie Sarenders
Speaker 1: on board with him as well now, and Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: and a lot of people endorsing him. But what I
Speaker 1: really pay attention to is who are you putting in
Speaker 1: office around you? I think that's what I find to
Speaker 1: be extremely important. And so I'm paying attention to who
Speaker 1: is endorsing and supporting Joe Biden. Who is he listening
Speaker 1: to right now, because I look at somebody like Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: who is very dangerous as we can see in particular
Speaker 1: during this pandemic, and I'm looking at who he has
Speaker 1: around him advising him, because I don't think Donald Trump
Speaker 1: comes up with everything that he wants to do on
Speaker 1: his own. It's not a dictatorship. So what's most important
Speaker 1: to me right now is who are you putting into
Speaker 1: position around you. I would never say I'm holding my vote, Hostess.
Speaker 1: What I would say is that these are the demands
Speaker 1: that I met, These are the people I want to
Speaker 1: see in position, and I would want to make sure
Speaker 1: that those things get done. I don't want to say
Speaker 1: we've been raised, but I feel like we've been conditioned
Speaker 1: that if the Democrat we automatically just vote, really instead
Speaker 1: of really asking for something, and which Joe, like I said,
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think that he cares about our people.
Speaker 1: I honestly don't think that he hasn't stood up and
Speaker 1: said what he does. Now, it's all cooler to accept
Speaker 1: these things because he knows he has to. But does
Speaker 1: he really care when he gets in the office, is
Speaker 1: he really going to implement these plans? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know. A lot of people feel like they
Speaker 1: have to do whatever it takes to get Trump out.
Speaker 1: But but but it's a campaign, right, So during the campaign,
Speaker 1: make you make a lot of promises. Make us some promises.
Speaker 1: Mother effort simple as that Black people give Democrats almost
Speaker 1: ninety percent of their votes in all elections, and we
Speaker 1: don't we don't ever ask anything in return. But don't
Speaker 1: drink five eight five, one oh five one. Let's talk
Speaker 1: about it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: I know, call me at your opinions to the Breakfast
Speaker 1: Club top. Come on eight hundred five five, one oh
Speaker 1: five one, voting. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now if you
Speaker 1: just joined us, we're talking about didd He He was
Speaker 1: on Instagram and this is what he said. Voting is
Speaker 1: not gonna be for free. You know what are we
Speaker 1: getting in return five vote? Nothing has changed for Black America.
Speaker 1: And in order for us to vote for Biden, we
Speaker 1: can't be taken for granted like we always are because
Speaker 1: we're supposed to be Democrats, or because people are afraid
Speaker 1: of Trump. It's whoever's gonna take care of our community,
Speaker 1: whoever wants to make a deal. It's business at this point.
Speaker 1: You know, we can't trust politicians. Biden needs to make
Speaker 1: it clear that he's going to change the lives and
Speaker 1: quality of life of black and brown people. I will
Speaker 1: hold the vote hostage if I have to. I love
Speaker 1: the energy now. Nothing responsible about demanding something for your vote. Now.
Speaker 1: Kenny Burns is a young man that worked with Diddy.
Speaker 1: He also worked with Rockefeller before. He has his own
Speaker 1: liquor podcast and all that. He replied puff this statement
Speaker 1: is very irresponsible. At this point, the only option is
Speaker 1: to get Trump out of office. Come on a champ.
Speaker 1: Encouraging people to stand by is not an option. Then
Speaker 1: they said puff erasedist comment and block them. I will
Speaker 1: keep saying over and over there's nothing irresponsible about demanding
Speaker 1: something for your vote. I think the only thing that
Speaker 1: Diddy did wrong, and that's that in that video is
Speaker 1: he didn't, you know, say what he wanted. I've been
Speaker 1: clear about what I want for the past year. What
Speaker 1: I want it's a black woman running mate. That's a must,
Speaker 1: that should be a non negotiable. Joe Biden already said
Speaker 1: he would put a black woman on the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1: That is great, and most importantly, we need Biden to
Speaker 1: adopt one of these black agendas that's out here. I
Speaker 1: don't It can be Black Futures lab black agenda, it
Speaker 1: could be pieces of Mayor Bloomberg's economic agenda, it could
Speaker 1: be pieces of U Mayor Peach um Uh Douglas plan.
Speaker 1: Whatever it is, adopt one of these black agendas, make
Speaker 1: it your own. Okay, Like, Yo, you can't even lie
Speaker 1: to us, bro, it's a it's a freaking presidential campaign.
Speaker 1: You can't even tell us what you're gonna do, even
Speaker 1: if you don't do it. But a lot of people
Speaker 1: feel believe in what Kenny Burns has said. One person said,
Speaker 1: if we don't vote Trump, if we don't vote Trump
Speaker 1: wins again. We saw this last term. Somebody said, oh, man,
Speaker 1: he just randomly said this on a Tuesday. The check
Speaker 1: must have clared. Some people said, no, we have to
Speaker 1: get Trump out of office. Some people says, no, we
Speaker 1: have to work. Beating Trump doesn't doesn't necessarily mean better
Speaker 1: for us. So people, that's all I'm saying. So let's
Speaker 1: go to Okay, Hello, who's this? Hey, what's up? It's
Speaker 1: que from the brom What are your thoughts? I'm really
Speaker 1: disappointed in you, man, I'm really disappointed in you. Why
Speaker 1: are you disappointing? Has done nothing to earn the black vote.
Speaker 1: He was one of the main creators of the nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety four crime bill that put behind bars so many
Speaker 1: black men. So I actually like City, but I agree
Speaker 1: with him what Kenny Burns said. I said a lot
Speaker 1: of people feel that way. That is not what envy
Speaker 1: feels I'm saying, But a lot of people do feel
Speaker 1: like the only goal is they have to get Trump
Speaker 1: out of office. I feel like any candidate has to
Speaker 1: have something for me in my community. And Joe Biden
Speaker 1: has been dodging the breakfast club to even come up
Speaker 1: here and talk, and I want us to use us.
Speaker 1: That's why I use us because they automatically think black
Speaker 1: people are Democrats, and that's not the case. I agree
Speaker 1: with you. It could be a Republican, it could be
Speaker 1: an Independent, it could be a it could be Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely I'm really serious. If Donald Trump came with
Speaker 1: a plan to show, you know what, black people have
Speaker 1: been abused for this amount of time, this is what
Speaker 1: we're gonna give them. We're gonna reform this. We're gonna
Speaker 1: influx with these stimulus packages into our inner city communities.
Speaker 1: I'm voting with Donald Trump. You're voting your interests. Ever
Speaker 1: is going to actually have a plan. And it's really
Speaker 1: crazy because look at this. The Holocaust never happened in
Speaker 1: this country, Yet Jewish people received reparations, Bravery built this country,
Speaker 1: and black people have not received anything. So Joe Biden
Speaker 1: to me right now, he's an OP. He has done.
Speaker 1: He called him an OP as the truth though behind bars,
Speaker 1: and he got to earn it. You're right, my brother,
Speaker 1: I'm on God on God. I would vote for Donald
Speaker 1: Trump if he came out. I don't know about all that.
Speaker 1: I don't know about all that. We can't people hearing
Speaker 1: sound bites, so you can't say things I would like.
Speaker 1: I would just vote for Donald Trump. He said he
Speaker 1: would vote for Donald Trump if Donald Trump actually put
Speaker 1: something on the table tangible for black people. I want
Speaker 1: Joe Biden to have these three things on his table
Speaker 1: in order for me to feel comfortable voting for him.
Speaker 1: Number one is a black agenda. Number two is a
Speaker 1: black women are running mate. Number three he already said
Speaker 1: he put a black woman on the Supreme Court. I
Speaker 1: want him to commit to those things for me to
Speaker 1: feel really, really comfortable going out to vote for him
Speaker 1: in November. Now, I just feel like he does a
Speaker 1: lot of comfortable interviews where I don't think they'll necessarily
Speaker 1: ask him the questions that need to be asked. I
Speaker 1: think that he avoids our community a lot. I don't
Speaker 1: think he has anything on the table for our community,
Speaker 1: and I think he's done a lot to hurt our community.
Speaker 1: It hasn't even said, you know, because I did was
Speaker 1: I made a mistake, and I'm sorry. I apologize. I
Speaker 1: made a bad decision. I made a wrong decision in life.
Speaker 1: We all make wrong decisions. But it's it's what you
Speaker 1: do after that wrong decision to fix it. Yes, say
Speaker 1: you have to atone. He has to atone for the
Speaker 1: ninety four crime bill through policy. It's really not that hard. Like,
Speaker 1: I really don't understand why people are so confused about
Speaker 1: what did? He said? There is nothing irresponsible about demanding
Speaker 1: something for your vote. Simple A hundred five eight five
Speaker 1: one oh five. One is the breakfast club? Come on
Speaker 1: and call this suffice to taking your calls. It's topic
Speaker 1: times the phone called eight hundred and five eight five
Speaker 1: one oh five. Want to join it to the discussion
Speaker 1: with the breakfast club, talk about it voting? Everybody is
Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we are the
Speaker 1: breakfast club. If he just joined us with talking about
Speaker 1: something that did he said, can we play it right? Fast?
Speaker 1: Vote is not gonna be for free? You know what
Speaker 1: are we getting in return? Five vote? Nothing has changed
Speaker 1: for Black America, and in order for us to vote
Speaker 1: for Biden, we can't be taken for granted like we
Speaker 1: always are because we're supposed to be Democrats, or because
Speaker 1: people are afraid of Trump. It's whoever's going to take
Speaker 1: care of our community, whoever wants to make a deal.
Speaker 1: It's business. At this point, you know, we can't trust politicians.
Speaker 1: Biden needs to make it clad that he's going to
Speaker 1: change the lives and quality of life of black and
Speaker 1: brown people. I will hold a vote hostage and five
Speaker 1: to or a lot of people feel like it's irresponsible
Speaker 1: and he should just be saying just vote against Trump. Now,
Speaker 1: what do you think? I think right now? This is
Speaker 1: exactly what Trump supporters want to be happening, all of
Speaker 1: this going back and forth within the Democrats, and I'm
Speaker 1: not voting, I'm not doing this. I'm holding my vote
Speaker 1: hostage and all of that. I have been saying, I
Speaker 1: pay attention to who people put an office around them,
Speaker 1: and I think that has been very important for me
Speaker 1: as far as deciding who I like and who I
Speaker 1: want to support, and what policies they are going to
Speaker 1: be presenting for us and what positive chances are gonna
Speaker 1: be making. I've been looking at Joe Biden's website just
Speaker 1: to see what his proposals are and what his plans are.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that he's not doing he doesn't have
Speaker 1: any plans at all, because I don't think that's true.
Speaker 1: But you know, for the black community, so I don't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say nothing, because that's simply not true. Just
Speaker 1: based off of what I see he planned to do
Speaker 1: for HBCUs and the money that he wants to put
Speaker 1: into that, and into education and into housing and development,
Speaker 1: and the task force that he's now saying that he's
Speaker 1: going to do. I think you just have to keep
Speaker 1: on demanding those things. But I just hate to see
Speaker 1: how united the Republicans always are and how divided the
Speaker 1: Democrats always. Well, you know why, because Republicans fall in line,
Speaker 1: Democrats fall in love. You know what I'm saying. We
Speaker 1: have to love the individual Republicans, love their interests, and
Speaker 1: that's all we need to start doing. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean. You talk about the task for us, Okay,
Speaker 1: the same task for us that he wouldn't. He doesn't
Speaker 1: even want a truth to truth to power speaker, like
Speaker 1: need a turner on You know what I'm saying, Yes,
Speaker 1: I would love the investment in HBCUs, but there's other
Speaker 1: things that we need. You know, we need housing, we
Speaker 1: need I like the fact that Bloomberg wanted to invest
Speaker 1: seventy billion in low income neighborhoods throughout the country. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, I want to help number were
Speaker 1: on them. And he talks about expanding on our band
Speaker 1: here on his website, and he does talk about housing
Speaker 1: also on his website for and so that is on there.
Speaker 1: But but we want to see all of that really
Speaker 1: come to fruition, and we also want to continue to
Speaker 1: keep building. I don't think anybody's plan has everything in
Speaker 1: it that we want and everything's perfect, but we do
Speaker 1: have to keep on saying, Okay, good, we got this.
Speaker 1: Now we want this, we want this, and we want
Speaker 1: these things. By the way, that's all did He's saying
Speaker 1: once again, I'm going to hold my vote hostage until
Speaker 1: my demands are met. There is nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 1: Everything that we're saying is absolutely correct. When you want
Speaker 1: something from one of these candidates, unders saying that your
Speaker 1: vote is transactional, I give you something, you give me something.
Speaker 1: You know you give me something. Trump another four years
Speaker 1: is very scary to me, and I will say that. Well,
Speaker 1: let's go to the phone lines. Hello, Who's this is blue? Hey, guys.
Speaker 1: I wanted to say thank you for taking my phone call,
Speaker 1: but I wanted to say I understand where did he
Speaker 1: is saying as forts what he wanted a black agenda?
Speaker 1: But this is not the time for that. Trump. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, hold on, hold on, let me talk to
Speaker 1: Charlotte Magne. He's spend rolling back human right as far
Speaker 1: as he want to nominate another Supreme Court justice that's
Speaker 1: gonna take away women's rights. He rolling back hoods or programs.
Speaker 1: He's trying to take away people's voting right. Like I
Speaker 1: definitely want a black agenda. But man, we gotta get
Speaker 1: out there and vote and get this guy outside of
Speaker 1: here or we're gonna lose more than what we even
Speaker 1: had before he came me. Thank you for I feel
Speaker 1: I feel you. But man, it feels like every single
Speaker 1: election black people are void, are forced to vote out
Speaker 1: of fear. Every single election, black people are choosing between
Speaker 1: the lesser of two evils. When are we gonna get
Speaker 1: to choose between our interests? And I ain't gonna front man,
Speaker 1: you know, reading his stuff on his site about highlights
Speaker 1: from Joe Button's agenda for the Black community running for president,
Speaker 1: maybe Joe Biden, it seems so vague through his policies education,
Speaker 1: Joe will ensure that black families can build and sustain
Speaker 1: wealth for themselves in their communities because homeownership is the
Speaker 1: key to building. And this is vague. Man, this is
Speaker 1: really vague. It's not that's not a necessarily a plan.
Speaker 1: But I said, you have to build on that you have.
Speaker 1: We talk about these are the things that I want met.
Speaker 1: I see you have this written, So how is that
Speaker 1: actually going to work? What's how is this being implemented.
Speaker 1: What's the money that's being injected for this? Those are
Speaker 1: all things that you have to make sure that you
Speaker 1: bring to the table, like end violence against women, Joe
Speaker 1: will build on the landmark violence against Like this is
Speaker 1: so vague. It's not even saying what he's doing. He's
Speaker 1: just saying, I'm gonna build on the things that's there.
Speaker 1: It's not that's like saying I'm gonna sell a car
Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, this car is really fast and
Speaker 1: you're safe if you wear your seatbelt, Like a building
Speaker 1: on anything that's there anymore. That's all I know is
Speaker 1: the conditions of black people have been the same in
Speaker 1: America for decades, regardless of who the president is, and
Speaker 1: we would not make any real systemic change in our
Speaker 1: communities until we change our approach to politics. And I
Speaker 1: don't think it's too much to ask of a candidate
Speaker 1: like Joe Biden, who owes his political life to black people,
Speaker 1: to meet some demands for black people. And by the way,
Speaker 1: he's right, you need both. You need an inside outside game.
Speaker 1: You need somebody rattling the cage saying look, we're gonna
Speaker 1: hold these volte hostage. And you need somebody else talking
Speaker 1: to him and another man, and you can do both,
Speaker 1: because guess what, you know what people in Biden's camp
Speaker 1: need to be doing for him today, whether it's Simone Sanders,
Speaker 1: et Centric or anybody, they need to be going to
Speaker 1: Joe Biden and saying, bro, we're gonna have a problem
Speaker 1: on our hands in November. If you don't get this
Speaker 1: black agenda going, We're gonna have a problem on our
Speaker 1: hands if you don't pick a black woman running me.
Speaker 1: Simple as that. I just feel like Diddy's a powerful person,
Speaker 1: and he has access that he could get a sit
Speaker 1: down with Joe Biden, he could present these plans and
Speaker 1: could have people and could support. You know, I don't
Speaker 1: know personally, you know he could. Yeah, we don't know
Speaker 1: where he tried. Maybe he tried to get a conversation,
Speaker 1: and maybe he did. He's like, nah, after denying my conversation.
Speaker 1: This is how I feeling. Sometimes you got to vote
Speaker 1: out there, so people are understanding. Put the pressure on people.
Speaker 1: We've seen it over and over and over again. Position
Speaker 1: to represent for us and to really present some things
Speaker 1: that he feels like would be great for our community,
Speaker 1: and also do that in conjunction with maybe you're Bernie Sanders,
Speaker 1: or in conjunction with Elizabeth anybody. But I feel like
Speaker 1: he does have a lot of access. We're the average person.
Speaker 1: All right, We got more coming up next. We're a
Speaker 1: breakfast club, The Breakfast Club, DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We have a
Speaker 1: special guest on the phone lines this morning. We have
Speaker 1: Barbara Cochrane. Welcome, welcome to you to have me, Thank
Speaker 1: you for having me now. One of my favorite sharks.
Speaker 1: Barbara and Damon John are my two favorites. Well, you've
Speaker 1: got good taste because sir Damon's my favorite as well.
Speaker 1: So how are you quarantine? And how is everything where
Speaker 1: you held up back? What are you doing? I'm held
Speaker 1: up that New York City and right over for Parks.
Speaker 1: I have a beautiful view and I've watched those medical
Speaker 1: tents go up and go down, which is a note
Speaker 1: of gave me a positive feeling. But I'm trying to
Speaker 1: keep my marriage together. It's going on thirty seven years.
Speaker 1: I know everything wrong with my husband. There's nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with me. Wow, that's what my wife said. Everything you
Speaker 1: know everything right about them too? Then, yeah, I do.
Speaker 1: I'm sitting with it. I'm afraid at this point. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Now with the real estate industry right now, you know
Speaker 1: you made a fortune off real estate, and I'm sure
Speaker 1: you continue to do so, you know, what do you
Speaker 1: advise people to do? Is this a good time for
Speaker 1: people to get in the real estate. I know a
Speaker 1: lot of people are scared with the market dropping. I'm
Speaker 1: looking at real estate. I see the house market is
Speaker 1: going down a little bit. What would you advise for
Speaker 1: people to do right now outside of this pandemic? If
Speaker 1: they have a little money saved. As far as real
Speaker 1: estate is concerned, well, today is a day where you
Speaker 1: could really make a killing, but a lot of people
Speaker 1: don't have the guts to do it. You know, I
Speaker 1: think every single property I ever bought that became my
Speaker 1: best investments over time, homes, investment properties, because that's what
Speaker 1: I do for a living. I got them all in
Speaker 1: on certain times and everybody was saying, which one we're
Speaker 1: going to go? What's going on? And right now the
Speaker 1: real estate market is choppy. You've got some areas we
Speaker 1: have overbidding, like Seattle, Washington, portions of even San Francisco
Speaker 1: still urban markets, and then you've got markets that are
Speaker 1: dumping like crazy, like New York City, for example. People
Speaker 1: genuinely renew the eleases. Last month that we're up for renewal,
Speaker 1: only forty percent of everybody renew the eleases. People are
Speaker 1: vacating cities for the time being. But amidst all that change,
Speaker 1: what you've got is you've got a desperate seller somewhere
Speaker 1: in that pile as a desperate seller. And so if
Speaker 1: you could stay in the market, you're looking in whatever
Speaker 1: your home ballpark is, because that's where you want to
Speaker 1: stay stuff. You know, if you could pounce on something,
Speaker 1: you can get yourself a great deal. But again I say,
Speaker 1: you got to have a set of you know what
Speaker 1: to get in there and do that kind of you
Speaker 1: could say, well you learned to say that. I thought
Speaker 1: even that was illegal. Now you could say I wasn't
Speaker 1: a sick By the way, I was recently reading about
Speaker 1: a lot of people are going to Connecticut now from
Speaker 1: New York and they said the prices of real estate
Speaker 1: of Connecticut are going up, and I'm seeing a lot
Speaker 1: of people. I don't know if this is a trend,
Speaker 1: but a lot of people who had like small apartments
Speaker 1: in the city are wanting to have more space now
Speaker 1: and after this pandemic, they're thinking, Okay, let me get
Speaker 1: rid of this small, expensive apartment and actually move somewhere.
Speaker 1: And moved to Brooklyn, moved to Queens, moved to Connecticut
Speaker 1: where I can yeah Jersey, where I can have more space.
Speaker 1: So what kind of trends are out there that we
Speaker 1: should be paying attention to. Will you actually name the
Speaker 1: main trend? And that is true of New Jersey, Westchester County, Connecticut.
Speaker 1: If you're away from the Prey, that's the new commodity
Speaker 1: out there. Everybody wants to be away. The idea of luxury,
Speaker 1: forget about it. Nobody's talking those words. Even people families
Speaker 1: who are shopping for homes right now aren't even talking
Speaker 1: about how good is the school district. You know why,
Speaker 1: because they're thinking they're going to home school their kids anywhere.
Speaker 1: You know, the home today has to be the office,
Speaker 1: it has to be the schoolhouse. It has to be
Speaker 1: a place where you could actually love your family twenty
Speaker 1: four seven and have the freedom to get away from
Speaker 1: everybody else that's asking a lot. So what that's translating
Speaker 1: to right now is a huge demand for housing in
Speaker 1: those areas. Even though they can't fairly show those houses.
Speaker 1: People are riding up, parking in the driveway, or brokers
Speaker 1: are opening door. Tell them to put a mask on,
Speaker 1: help yourself. Nobody's home. It's very difficult to do business.
Speaker 1: But despite all that, these properties are going up and
Speaker 1: value because of fear. You know, it's funny that you
Speaker 1: said that I'm actually selling my house and that was
Speaker 1: the time I'm gonna put it on the market because
Speaker 1: I live in New Jersey and everybody has been reaching
Speaker 1: out saying, hey, we want to get out of the city.
Speaker 1: It's too close. I need something, and you know what's
Speaker 1: selling right now? People want a pool. Its summertime. They're like,
Speaker 1: if your house has a pool, it will sell. So
Speaker 1: I've had agents called and I'm glad. I was going
Speaker 1: to sell it last year. But now it seems like
Speaker 1: the market the prices went up even more. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm glad I waited. And not only that, but interest
Speaker 1: rates came down. But now I have a question, where
Speaker 1: are you gonna move? I would give that a little
Speaker 1: bit of flow up before you have that family move
Speaker 1: into your house. Oh, I found a home run similar
Speaker 1: to what you said. I found a home run this
Speaker 1: was it was up there in price, and I was
Speaker 1: able to get it for a great, great, great deal.
Speaker 1: So even if I, you know, not take as much
Speaker 1: in Dirty Dog, shame on you. I'm following your footsteps.
Speaker 1: I'm following your footsteps. I don't want the competition cut
Speaker 1: it out. I want to be the big shot in town. Now.
Speaker 1: I love your whole story too, how you started everything
Speaker 1: with a thousand dollars And I read an article where
Speaker 1: you were talking about how you feel like the people
Speaker 1: that you would invest in and who you feel could
Speaker 1: be most successful are people who come from poverty and
Speaker 1: difficult circumstances. So do you find that still holds true,
Speaker 1: especially right now. Yeah, identify with people like that, and
Speaker 1: I can give you a whole list of reasons why
Speaker 1: it makes good financial sense as well. My background is
Speaker 1: one of ten kids in a two bedroom flat. Let
Speaker 1: me tell you we've worked since the time we were twelve.
Speaker 1: We may not have been like I was terrible at school,
Speaker 1: but I was a great hard worker. And so people
Speaker 1: who struggle, and in fact, people who have a real
Speaker 1: deficit in their childhood I find make phenomenal entrepreneurs. They
Speaker 1: create a world like kind of how they envision it
Speaker 1: versus fitting in with somebody else's world. And so when
Speaker 1: I'm on that Shark Time show, every time I'm sitting
Speaker 1: in that seat, I'm looking for a loser. It sounds weird,
Speaker 1: but I'm looking for the guy who was raised by
Speaker 1: a single mom. I'm looking for the gal whose mother
Speaker 1: said should never amount to anything. I'm looking for somebody
Speaker 1: who's motivated by insult, somebody who's got something to prove,
Speaker 1: somebody who knows what it's like to take a hit,
Speaker 1: be smashed around a bit, because you know what they
Speaker 1: learned in that journey, they learn to get back up. Instead,
Speaker 1: you give me a privilege, kitter, and now I've got
Speaker 1: privileged kids, so I'm not not going to really, so
Speaker 1: give me a privileged kid. And they lack the experience
Speaker 1: of struggle. You know, they've been on the fancy vacations.
Speaker 1: Everything's kind of come easy. It's not their fault, it's
Speaker 1: just their environment how they've grown up. And you can't
Speaker 1: learn the toughness in the skin and the streets marks
Speaker 1: that you learn when you come from the ghetto or
Speaker 1: the family that needs this and needs that. You how
Speaker 1: to help out so many different values. So that's what
Speaker 1: I do. I buy the entrepreneurs what I do when
Speaker 1: I'm buying those businesses, and the poorer they are, the
Speaker 1: better they do for me every time. It's a different
Speaker 1: work ethic. When a person knows if they fail, they
Speaker 1: can just call their parents or get more investors to
Speaker 1: invest in them. When people know that if they do fail,
Speaker 1: this is it, you know. So I think it is
Speaker 1: a different mentality of I can't fail. Absolutely. I'm going
Speaker 1: to add something to that that you might not think
Speaker 1: of because I've seen both sides, the privilege side and
Speaker 1: the poor side. I've lived both lives. The one advantage
Speaker 1: huge advantage and Gaymon John talks about it the power
Speaker 1: broke to steal his idea. But I learned it for myself.
Speaker 1: Is when you are poorer, you have an advantage of
Speaker 1: you have nowhere to go but up. You don't have
Speaker 1: pushing parents have been really successful, like monkeys on your back,
Speaker 1: expecting to be a big deal. When you grow up,
Speaker 1: you are free to boot being exactly who you are.
Speaker 1: And privileged kids don't walk into the work world with that.
Speaker 1: They've got the attorney dad, the high finance mom, push him,
Speaker 1: push him, pushing from behind, and you know what it does.
Speaker 1: It winds up becoming somebody to make happy versus making
Speaker 1: yourself happy. It's you have a huge advantage when you
Speaker 1: don't come with all that monkey business on your back.
Speaker 1: All right, we have more with Barbara Cochrane. When we
Speaker 1: come back, don't move. It's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee Shlomne the guy. We
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking with Barbara Cochrane.
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you know, we've seen a story
Speaker 1: a couple of months ago about somebody trying to scam
Speaker 1: you out of four hundred thousand dollars. Yes, halfway to this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what happened in that case, Well, we got an email.
Speaker 1: My bookkeeper gets an email from a company saying I'm
Speaker 1: buying four or six investment properties in Berlin, Germany. Now
Speaker 1: I buy investment properties, but not in Berlin. Okay, I
Speaker 1: don't know Berlin, but it wasn't out of the norm.
Speaker 1: And they wrote in the name of one of my
Speaker 1: colleagues at my office who usually authorized our billing. So
Speaker 1: it was authorized by a fake name which looked real,
Speaker 1: and out went the money. It was wired out. Okay,
Speaker 1: I had a heart attack, but fortunately they wired it
Speaker 1: to a German bank on its way to China and
Speaker 1: we stopped it in Germany. I got the money back.
Speaker 1: I was threating that one all night. Yeah, because I
Speaker 1: emailed you too. I emailed you too. I said that
Speaker 1: I was your adopted son that you never paid child
Speaker 1: support for, and I asked for only one hundred thousand,
Speaker 1: but I never got that wire. I'm not paying your nickel.
Speaker 1: I can tell your scamming right here on You I
Speaker 1: don't know. Wow, no, no, no, it does fear and
Speaker 1: stuff going on, forget it. Not not at all. Well
Speaker 1: what happens now with protocol in the office because we
Speaker 1: had we actually debated this at work because I was like, well,
Speaker 1: it feels like, you know, for Barbara Corkman, four hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars might be a typical Okay, I let my
Speaker 1: office handle it. But I remember you guys were like, no,
Speaker 1: there's no way that is too high of an amount
Speaker 1: of money that it doesn't go through certain approve of
Speaker 1: path protocols, certain protocols. Yeah, it's just well, today we
Speaker 1: have all the protocol and you know what's the most
Speaker 1: safe one is of all outside the internet before any
Speaker 1: money is wired over a very small amount that people
Speaker 1: have to kick up the phone and say did you
Speaker 1: send this wire? That's all it is. It's just a
Speaker 1: phone call, is a stop check. And that's what we've
Speaker 1: initiated at the office. Now, what markets do you think
Speaker 1: is a good market for somebody that's trying to get
Speaker 1: in the real estate game, and say what markets should
Speaker 1: they be looking at? You know, Angeli and I invested
Speaker 1: in Detroit and did very well. What markets would you say, well,
Speaker 1: kind of like the old days when people used to
Speaker 1: make a lot of money real estate when they followed
Speaker 1: the train lines. You know, you follow those train lines.
Speaker 1: Just do all those new places in California opening up.
Speaker 1: Today's version of that is followed the job market. If
Speaker 1: a large company is opening up in an area and
Speaker 1: they're employing a lot of well educated people, you know,
Speaker 1: prices are going to go through the roof. So for
Speaker 1: example up A great example is very close to my
Speaker 1: home here where I'm investing in heavily, which is Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1: I almost said Philadelphia. Kody say Pittsburgh. Yeah, everybody's saying Pittsburgh,
Speaker 1: and they're a little late. I mean, I've been investing
Speaker 1: there for almost three years. Not to show off about it,
Speaker 1: but I've watched bad my prices go up. In your
Speaker 1: memory as you deficit, it makes you hesitate, like, wait,
Speaker 1: I could have gotten a cheap or two years ago.
Speaker 1: But it's got so much room for going up because
Speaker 1: there's so much industry moving in, there's so much government support.
Speaker 1: The city is supporting real estate development, and there aren't
Speaker 1: as many restrictions, so you can wheel and renovate. You
Speaker 1: could increase your rent and so it's a very secure investment.
Speaker 1: Right now. I don't see anything really downside. It's got
Speaker 1: to be something, but maybe I'm turning an eye to it. Yeah, Now,
Speaker 1: were you affected bad by you know, the pandemic and
Speaker 1: people not being able to pay rent and all those things.
Speaker 1: You know, how are you holding up with that end?
Speaker 1: You know what happens from there, what happens next outside
Speaker 1: of that with those properties that you own. Well, I'm
Speaker 1: actually a small property owner. I own small buildings, like
Speaker 1: a twelve units sell. Maybe that sounds big, but in
Speaker 1: real estate terms of New York City, it's not like
Speaker 1: a high rise building of something. That's where I'm comfortable.
Speaker 1: But the moment the eviction proceedings were frozen here in
Speaker 1: New York, I had roughly twenty percent of my tenants
Speaker 1: calling saying they didn't want to pay their rent. This
Speaker 1: was in April one. And of those twenty percent, ten
Speaker 1: percent we allowed not to pay our int because you
Speaker 1: know what the other ten percent we're doing. They all
Speaker 1: had their jobs, they had fancy jobs, and they're well
Speaker 1: educated kids, maybe in their thirties, and they were calling
Speaker 1: and saying, we don't want to pay our rent. And
Speaker 1: when we asked why it was because we just don't
Speaker 1: want to pay it. They still had jobs, they still
Speaker 1: had income, but ten percent of the people were working.
Speaker 1: Because we're doing everything we can to help people like that. Now,
Speaker 1: what's interesting to realize is the landlords position. I can
Speaker 1: afford to have ten percent, maybe fifteen percent of my
Speaker 1: tenants not pay their rent. Don't tell them because ten
Speaker 1: percent is plenty in my books. At say twenty percent,
Speaker 1: I'm going to problem. I got to pay my real
Speaker 1: estate taxes and I've got to pay my mortgage, and
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be able to afford it. So
Speaker 1: what happens then buildings go into foreclosure. Rents have to
Speaker 1: be set, but buildings can't be fixed, roofs can't be
Speaker 1: without leaks that can't be fixed, radiators going, you can't
Speaker 1: provide heat, and we've had that. I lived it actually
Speaker 1: in the early seventies when landlords are walking away bandoning
Speaker 1: buildings because the rink control. So we kind of have
Speaker 1: like a short term version of ringk control all over
Speaker 1: again with all these freezes and don't pay your rent,
Speaker 1: you can't foreclose. So I'm all for it to help
Speaker 1: out people, but I'm worried it might go too far,
Speaker 1: particularly in New York City, and then we're going to
Speaker 1: have really big problems with the landlords, which means we
Speaker 1: have problems with the financiers, the banks who give the mortgages.
Speaker 1: Who did they care into and the crap just rolls downhill.
Speaker 1: That's how it rolls. But you know what I had
Speaker 1: that problem to I had. I had closer to forty
Speaker 1: percent not pay. But you know what it was for.
Speaker 1: It was because the mayor and the governor's most got
Speaker 1: on air and said, hey, we're gonna make it where
Speaker 1: you know, if you can't afford to pay rent, you
Speaker 1: don't have to pay rent. You can't you can't get evicted.
Speaker 1: So when people hear that, automatically they think, oh, I
Speaker 1: ain't gotta pay rent, you can't evict me. And I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: don't work like that. Power to the people, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what, they've just changed all those rules that
Speaker 1: the only way the attendant campaign ranted, you could prove hardship,
Speaker 1: show that he's collecting unemployees. You should know that because
Speaker 1: that makes a big difference. That's the need case, and
Speaker 1: that's how it should be really, and that's been changed absolutely. Now, Barbara,
Speaker 1: how are your businesses that you're invested into doing from
Speaker 1: shark tank in particular, because it is a hard time
Speaker 1: for small businesses right now. So I'm sure that's something
Speaker 1: that you've been paying attention to attention to with the
Speaker 1: paychech protection program and all of that. Yeah, of course,
Speaker 1: you know. I've invested about eighty similar businesses to date,
Speaker 1: and I'm in touch with not everyone, but just about
Speaker 1: everyone over the many weeks. I'm always staying in touch.
Speaker 1: What are you doing, what are you thinking about? Where
Speaker 1: is your head going, what are the numbers? Not with
Speaker 1: them towards seeing if we're making money or not, but
Speaker 1: simply laying myself out there, like I've lived through four
Speaker 1: bad times and came out alive. So how could I
Speaker 1: help you? And here's the interesting thing I have found.
Speaker 1: I have found that probably ten percent of my businesses
Speaker 1: are actually going to make it through the other side.
Speaker 1: I wish I could say all of them, but here's
Speaker 1: what the difference is. A lot of them listen, but
Speaker 1: are waiting for the change. If you sit and wait
Speaker 1: for the change, you're not coming out the other side.
Speaker 1: I tell them that that they don't know what to do.
Speaker 1: They're afraid to do whatever. Whatever. They didn't even take
Speaker 1: advantage of the PPP program, which was open to everybody,
Speaker 1: but about ten percent of my businesses did a couple
Speaker 1: of things really smart. They looked at where all their
Speaker 1: money was coming from. They assumed it wasn't going to
Speaker 1: keep coming, and they reinvented how they could sell their
Speaker 1: product or service. And so those particular businesses are going
Speaker 1: to come through fine and interesting. Going back to that
Speaker 1: early conversation we had, they were all streets smart people
Speaker 1: who have been through hard times. For them, it wasn't
Speaker 1: a real shocker. All right, we have one with Barbara
Speaker 1: Cochrane when we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good morning, DJ Envy Angela Yee Shlomagne the guy we
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. Were still kicking with Barbara Cochrane.
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about Shark Tank. Are you tired of
Speaker 1: Shark Tank? Are you still enjoy it? You're still enjoying
Speaker 1: seeing the crazy people and the crazy ideas. I'm tired
Speaker 1: of Robert Herschevak. Yeah, Tank Tank chatty chatty chatty, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm tired of listeners. Calmed down Robert. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: never tired of Shark Tank. Let me tell you when
Speaker 1: I got hired for Shark Tank. When I signed that contract,
Speaker 1: I was the happiest girl in New York City. I
Speaker 1: bought myself a new set of luggage, new outfits, and
Speaker 1: I was going to Hollywood. And I told everybody I
Speaker 1: knew I'm going to Holly. You know was the sign
Speaker 1: and everything. And then Shark Tank siglunated Cole and told
Speaker 1: me I wasn't hired. They replaced with another woman. But
Speaker 1: I signed the contract. I need. I signed the contract
Speaker 1: based we didn't sign the contract. Yeah, what a shocker.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to tell my family and friends I'm
Speaker 1: not going to Hollywood anymore. And so I sent him
Speaker 1: an email. I said, Mark Burnette, the top producer who
Speaker 1: owned the show them. I didn't though he was a
Speaker 1: big show. I just knew he was in charge. And
Speaker 1: I sent him an email and tell him. You know what,
Speaker 1: all my best winnings came on the heels of failure.
Speaker 1: When Donald Trump said I'd never see a penny of
Speaker 1: the three million dollars you old mean, I beat him
Speaker 1: in federal court. When sister Stella Marie I went on
Speaker 1: and on and told me I would never learn to
Speaker 1: read just because I was stupid in school. I know
Speaker 1: how to read. I just gave it to him. Who him?
Speaker 1: And then I ended by saying, I consider your rejection
Speaker 1: a lucky charm, and I'd like to come out and
Speaker 1: compete for the seat. And I expect to be on
Speaker 1: that plane. And what do you think he did? You
Speaker 1: let me cocaine in that one? That's dope. Who is
Speaker 1: the other person? I'm not telling you that would have
Speaker 1: to be I can't tell you. I've been asked at
Speaker 1: a few times. I will not ever say who the
Speaker 1: other person? It's not right. How do you think this
Speaker 1: show has changed from when I first started until now?
Speaker 1: Because it feels more like you already have to have
Speaker 1: shown some real numbers in order for you to even
Speaker 1: get on Shark Tank, to have had some success already.
Speaker 1: I feel like earlier you didn't really have to be
Speaker 1: so polished. Yeah, well, I have to say them my perspective.
Speaker 1: Those earlier days, I liked them for two reasons. One,
Speaker 1: people came in and asked for ten thousand, you know,
Speaker 1: for twenty percent of the reasons. Now people come in
Speaker 1: and ask for thousand for one percent for five percent.
Speaker 1: That is Mark Cuban every time. Of course money, you know.
Speaker 1: But the difference here today is they do expect sales,
Speaker 1: but there are oxflections. And the exception that I made
Speaker 1: just on a women, just on my gut, was buying
Speaker 1: into the Companies, which is an oversized sweatshirt. The company,
Speaker 1: the original company, and there were just two guys standing
Speaker 1: there and two one shot. They had a great shingle,
Speaker 1: like two guys drunk in a bar, two brothers. And
Speaker 1: when I said, what are you sales? We don't have
Speaker 1: any what a suppose you to make that thing? We
Speaker 1: don't know who you're gonna sell with you all the
Speaker 1: wrong answers, especially if you think about a shark tink today. Yes,
Speaker 1: nobody comes with no answers. And I on the sholf,
Speaker 1: you know, and I said, what the hell, I'll take
Speaker 1: thirty percent of new business. But I don't know what
Speaker 1: I paid the fifty thousand, maybe twenty thousand old. Now
Speaker 1: they've done eighty six million in sales. Oh my gosh. No,
Speaker 1: they're my single most successful investment. And the reason I
Speaker 1: brought into them was I said, these are great guys
Speaker 1: I can have a beer with them, and I've found
Speaker 1: out a bar, not a lot of money. Let me
Speaker 1: throw it and see what happens. We'll look what happened.
Speaker 1: And so I think every season for me, it's a
Speaker 1: new surprise, like who's coming through them? Did today? I
Speaker 1: feel like you really have to have it together, like
Speaker 1: I've always First of all, I just wanted to. I've
Speaker 1: always went into beyond shark tink and do a pitch
Speaker 1: because I watched it. But it's also seemed so nerve wracking,
Speaker 1: and it's not an easy thing to do. And then
Speaker 1: sometimes you watch it and you're like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: they are bombing right now, you know, but you can
Speaker 1: never predict. I think sometimes I think, oh that went terrible,
Speaker 1: or I think that went great, and it'll be the opposite. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what happened last year was shocked me. Four
Speaker 1: guys came out and started to pitch in the middle
Speaker 1: of the pitch. They were great, Yeah, really a dog
Speaker 1: and pony show the middle of the pitch. They got
Speaker 1: so excited. One guy hits support and lace quietly well
Speaker 1: everything like crazy. That's funny. You know, when he had
Speaker 1: fainted out of the pressure really revived. But you know
Speaker 1: what the reality is. No second chances, that's reality to
Speaker 1: they we never saw them again, a prof we know.
Speaker 1: I like Shark Think the most and I love Shark Tink.
Speaker 1: I love watching that and I love trying to, you know,
Speaker 1: make a bid myself before you guys make a bid
Speaker 1: or say how much I would offer a give. But
Speaker 1: the thing that I like about it the most is
Speaker 1: my kids watch Shark Tink. My kids are into it.
Speaker 1: You know, I have an eighteen year old or sixteen
Speaker 1: year old. They watch it and they are into it.
Speaker 1: They know the you know what a company is worth,
Speaker 1: and they're learning this way before I did. Like you know,
Speaker 1: I'm from co I didn't know anything about investing. So
Speaker 1: they're learning that and they're calling me Dad, I think
Speaker 1: this company is worth this month because of this, that
Speaker 1: and the other. And I love that. Yeah, of course,
Speaker 1: because you know what, it's a real life education. It's
Speaker 1: something that can really use. But do you want me
Speaker 1: to give you the bedside of that. They're gonna come
Speaker 1: to you say, hey, Dad, how many you make an
Speaker 1: investment in this great idea we have? And my valuation
Speaker 1: is give me the cash, and you're not gonna like
Speaker 1: it at all, you know, they already started it. My
Speaker 1: son already started a business where he sold where he
Speaker 1: was selling used clothes, which he did well. Then he
Speaker 1: started another business where he was selling video game coins
Speaker 1: and needed money to um to promote himself. He already
Speaker 1: started to see those businesses. I'm helped because it's small money,
Speaker 1: you know. I'm just waiting to the day where you know,
Speaker 1: like Donald Trump's son and be like, hey, dad, can
Speaker 1: I all Bart have a million dollar loan. I'm not
Speaker 1: there yet, but the small things I can definitely give
Speaker 1: him five hundred dollars in one hundred dollars, I can.
Speaker 1: I can do that much. Huh. They sound like a
Speaker 1: good dad to me. But thank you so much for
Speaker 1: being on the Breakfast Club of the first time. We
Speaker 1: really appreciate that. My pleasure. Really nice hang out with
Speaker 1: you guys. You're lovely to speak with. Really all right, well,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. It's Barbara Coker and it's the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good Morning's Donkeys, get you are. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: fatten all that around your want this man to Doten Blowers. Man,
Speaker 1: they're waited for Charlomagne the top end blobs. Let's go
Speaker 1: have to make a judgment who was going to be
Speaker 1: on the Donkey of the day. They chose you, the
Speaker 1: breakfast club bitch, Who's donkey of the day to day?
Speaker 1: Donkey of the day goes to police officers at the
Speaker 1: Louisville Metro Police Department in Kentucky. Their names are Jonathan Madden,
Speaker 1: Lee Brett Hankinson, and Miles cost Grove Okay. According to
Speaker 1: NBC News, they were identified by the police department as
Speaker 1: the officers who are currently under investigation for shooting and
Speaker 1: killing Brianna Taylor Okay because they were looking for us
Speaker 1: at the wrong home. I repeat, they were looking for
Speaker 1: a suspect at the wrong home. Another day, another black
Speaker 1: life is taken at the hands of the police. Now,
Speaker 1: if you haven't heard the story, Rihanna Taylor, a twenty
Speaker 1: seven year old EMT worker and essential worker Okay, died
Speaker 1: on March thirteenth after police officers with the Louisville Metro
Speaker 1: Police Department executed a search warrant at the wrong damn house.
Speaker 1: Let's go to wha s ABC eleven News for the report.
Speaker 1: Police Taylor's mother says that the twenty six year old
Speaker 1: and her boyfriend were never involved in drug activity. She
Speaker 1: was an EMT preparing to confront the coronavirus, working for
Speaker 1: both Jewish and Norton hospitals. A necessary search warrant, she
Speaker 1: did not have to die. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump
Speaker 1: represented high profile cases like Trayvon Martin and most recently
Speaker 1: Ahmed Arbory. This was a botched investigation that ended up
Speaker 1: were for innocent young woman killed. A lawsuit says that
Speaker 1: the three detectives were searching for JaMarcus Glover, who was
Speaker 1: detained that morning. They did not check to see if
Speaker 1: he was already in custody before they went in here,
Speaker 1: shooting over twenty two times. After Taylor was killed, LMPD
Speaker 1: healthy briefing later that day, the detectives are a part
Speaker 1: of the Criminal Interdiction Division, and we're not wearing body cameras.
Speaker 1: Officers knocked on the door several times and announced their
Speaker 1: presence as police who were there with a search warrant.
Speaker 1: Taylor's attorney disputes that, claiming police never identify to themselves.
Speaker 1: The lawsuit says Walker, a registered gun owner, shot Eddie
Speaker 1: Sargent in self defense. He was arrested and charged with
Speaker 1: attempted murder of a police officer. All three of the
Speaker 1: officers were placed on administrative reassignment. Now I was looking
Speaker 1: at this thing. Man. Rihanna Taylor was an award winning
Speaker 1: EMT and model citizen. Okay, she loved her family and community.
Speaker 1: She worked at two hospitals as an essential worker during
Speaker 1: the pandemic. I saw that posted on Instagram, and she's
Speaker 1: dead now because police in Louisville, Kentucky failed to measure
Speaker 1: it twice in order to cut once. Now, let me
Speaker 1: tell you something. You know, how we say things like
Speaker 1: the most valuable thing you can make as a mistake.
Speaker 1: You can't learn anything from being perfect, or you know,
Speaker 1: making mistakes is a lot better than not doing anything.
Speaker 1: Or mistakes are proof that you're trying. None of those
Speaker 1: quotes applied to this with all right, not one see
Speaker 1: the mistake in this situation shows that the offices in Louisville,
Speaker 1: they weren't even trying at all, not even a little bit.
Speaker 1: When you are executing a search warrant, you don't have
Speaker 1: the luxury of learning from your mistakes because you shouldn't
Speaker 1: be making an error to begin with. Okay, some people
Speaker 1: in some professions don't have the privilege of being that irresponsible,
Speaker 1: because being irresponsible can truly be a matter of life
Speaker 1: or death. It can be some life altering situations. Okay,
Speaker 1: and all these officers get is placed on administrative reassignment. Huh.
Speaker 1: Speaking of reassignment, do you remember that story that happened
Speaker 1: back in the day when the sixty seven year old
Speaker 1: man went into surgery for bladder cancer, but when he
Speaker 1: woke up, he discovered doctors that amputated his penis, and
Speaker 1: the doctors never even told him that this was a
Speaker 1: possibility before the surgery. You know what that's called mile practice?
Speaker 1: You know a police officers did in Louisville, Kentucky. Male practice. Okay,
Speaker 1: to add insult to injury, you arrest her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker,
Speaker 1: for assault an attempted murder on a police officer. Now,
Speaker 1: this brother, Kenneth Walker, he had a license to carry
Speaker 1: and kept firearms in the home for protection, as we
Speaker 1: all should to a all day. Now officers are saying
Speaker 1: they knocked on the door and announced themselves, but the
Speaker 1: lawsuit says they entertailer's home without docking and without announcing
Speaker 1: themselves as police officers. Yo, I don't know what happened.
Speaker 1: All I know is Walker did what any person should
Speaker 1: do in that situation. You hear somebody breaking into your house,
Speaker 1: waking up in the middle of the night, and you
Speaker 1: got your legal firearm, you get the busing. Okay, these
Speaker 1: officers weren't playing clothes. They pulled up an unmarked carse
Speaker 1: how is this brother, Kenneth supposed to know what's going on?
Speaker 1: Kenneth had zero listen to me, zero criminal history for
Speaker 1: drugs of violence. No drugs were found in the home.
Speaker 1: He's not part of that lifestyle. So when he hits
Speaker 1: somebody breaking in his house, all he's thinking is protect, protect, protect,
Speaker 1: and I feel him. Okay, Kenneth Walker didn't make a mistake.
Speaker 1: The police in Louisville, Kentucky did. Okay, you know who
Speaker 1: should have charges brought against them? The police in Louisville, Kentucky,
Speaker 1: Like what do we do in America? These officers executed
Speaker 1: the search warrant on the wrong house. From that moment on,
Speaker 1: it's their fault period a woman is that And all
Speaker 1: they have to offer, literally is a statement saying, due
Speaker 1: to it on going internal investigation into this situation, we
Speaker 1: are not able to comment at this time. Damn, I
Speaker 1: can't even get them my bad condolences to the family. Nothing.
Speaker 1: I can even play white Devil's advocate in a situation
Speaker 1: like this and say, if they didn't if they didn't
Speaker 1: know they were in the wrong house and you know,
Speaker 1: gunfire started, I can see why they, you know, reacted
Speaker 1: the way that they did. But that logic goes out
Speaker 1: the window simply because they were in the wrong house.
Speaker 1: This is their fault. Period. Now we have to ask
Speaker 1: ourselves the question who polices the police, Brianna Taylor, is
Speaker 1: that Kenneth Walker is facing charges of trying to kill
Speaker 1: a cop. Their lives will be changed forever. Meanwhile, these cops,
Speaker 1: get what, Who's gonna make your justices serve for the regular,
Speaker 1: everyday people who pay those cops salaries with tax dollars.
Speaker 1: Louisville Mayor Greg Fisher said in the state Tuesday that
Speaker 1: he was monitoring the case and talked to the police
Speaker 1: department's chief to ensure a thorough investigation. Yeah. Right, the
Speaker 1: same police department who can't even execute a search warrant
Speaker 1: properly or going to give a thorough investigation if it
Speaker 1: was anything thorough about this police department, Brihanna Taylor wouldn't
Speaker 1: be dead today because you officers would have done your
Speaker 1: due diligence before you ran up in the wronghouse. Okay,
Speaker 1: condolences to the family of Brianna Taylor. Kenneth Walker needs
Speaker 1: his charges dropped immediately, and Jonathan Mattingly, Brett Hankinson, and
Speaker 1: Miles cossbro should be fired and charged with second degree
Speaker 1: murder period. Nothing else to talk about here, folks. Please
Speaker 1: let Rimy Mark give those three officers from the Louisville
Speaker 1: Metro Police Department the biggest he had. He ha, he ha.
Speaker 1: He's stupid, mother far are you dumb? Totally again? And
Speaker 1: whatever happens to those officers is not enough, because Brianna
Speaker 1: Taylor is dead. This is a This is an essential
Speaker 1: worker who worked at two different hospitals during the pandemic,
Speaker 1: saving our lives and you just took hers because you
Speaker 1: made a goddamn mistakes. Thank you, search one on the
Speaker 1: wrong house. Come on, man, man, that is so sad.
Speaker 1: All right, well that's the fft up bro, All right, Well,
Speaker 1: thank you for to even have to listen to even
Speaker 1: talk about to even listen to absolutely well, thank you
Speaker 1: for that. Donkey. Today it's the breakfast Club, Good Morning,
Speaker 1: the breakfast Club, the relationship advice, need personal advice, just
Speaker 1: the real advice, Call up down for ask ye morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela, Yee, Charlomagne, the god we
Speaker 1: are the breakfast Club. Is time for ask ye and
Speaker 1: let's go to the line. We got Jamie on the
Speaker 1: lone Jamie good Morning's good morning? What's up? Hey? Um Uh,
Speaker 1: just to say I love this show, guys. I've been
Speaker 1: listening to you guys for a long long time and
Speaker 1: you guys are doing good in this situation. Applaud you
Speaker 1: guys on that. Thank you so much. Thank you. What's
Speaker 1: your question for you? Yeah? My question is, um, well,
Speaker 1: I'm a lot of depth right now and uh over
Speaker 1: the over the holidays and her anniversary with my wife,
Speaker 1: I went on and at her pretty expensive gifts, and
Speaker 1: uh well it's now it's catching up to me um mentally,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I'm not really general when
Speaker 1: it comes to mental stress, and I just want to
Speaker 1: come clean to my wife about it. And my wife
Speaker 1: could she she has a mouth on it like she
Speaker 1: could get on all me if if I mess up
Speaker 1: and she's not well today. You know, I'm the one
Speaker 1: to blame about it and okay, no, yeah, what's the
Speaker 1: best idea or advice could go with that? So when
Speaker 1: you say some credit card debt, like how much, Well,
Speaker 1: it's a lot. It's probably like eight thousand or something
Speaker 1: like that. But it's something that I already had. I
Speaker 1: just had it more to more to it, you know. Okay,
Speaker 1: So first of all, the one thing you have to
Speaker 1: do and I know you said that she has a
Speaker 1: mouth on her and you know it's going to be
Speaker 1: an issue, it's going to be some drama is when
Speaker 1: we make mistakes like this and we know that we
Speaker 1: have some things that we need to work on, we
Speaker 1: have to own that, right. So it's important for you
Speaker 1: to acknowledge the fact that you've gotten yourself into this
Speaker 1: situation right now. Do you have a plan of action
Speaker 1: on what you plan to do to work towards fixing this,
Speaker 1: because you know, I think it's great when we can
Speaker 1: communicate when there's issues, but are we also coming up
Speaker 1: with solutions? Yeah? Well, I was thinking, well, I get
Speaker 1: paid every week, so in my head I was thinking, yeah,
Speaker 1: this Friday, I'm just going to come clean to her
Speaker 1: about what's going on, because I mean, I'm already losing
Speaker 1: I lost like twenty pounds and I'm doing great with everything.
Speaker 1: It's just the mental stresses. I've never been good for time.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I took me died to be completely healthy,
Speaker 1: and I was thinking motifight to give her like pretty
Speaker 1: much my entire paycheck. She manages that, and I just
Speaker 1: keep myself for a little bit money so I could
Speaker 1: pay for guys because I be driving for work, you know.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if you guys have any other advice. Well,
Speaker 1: it feels to me like, obviously your wife loves you, right,
Speaker 1: that's why she's with you, and she's there for better
Speaker 1: or for worse, and so that's something you've got to
Speaker 1: keep in mind too. But you're right, this is something
Speaker 1: that is very stressful for you. So you need to
Speaker 1: let her know what it is that's going on. You
Speaker 1: guys need to come up with the solutions and how
Speaker 1: you're going to handle this as a couple. And you
Speaker 1: need to take ownership of the fact that you put
Speaker 1: yourself in a situation where you gut yourself into this debt.
Speaker 1: But debt can be manageable, and it's so eight thousand
Speaker 1: dollars is not something that I feel like you can't
Speaker 1: handle if you just make a plan, and so I
Speaker 1: think it's important for you to sit down. I actually
Speaker 1: do this credit chronicles, and we're actually following a couple
Speaker 1: right now, and you can look on the Breakfast Club
Speaker 1: YouTube page and you can see that there. But we're
Speaker 1: actually following a couple who have debt, and their debt
Speaker 1: is way crazier than yours. It's because it's student loans.
Speaker 1: It's a debt that the man had and when they
Speaker 1: got married, she had to take his debt also, and
Speaker 1: she didn't have any debt at all. So this is
Speaker 1: something that I think you guys have to work together
Speaker 1: as a couple to get through and figure out how
Speaker 1: can we make ourselves stronger after this? And if that
Speaker 1: means that you have to look at your spending habits,
Speaker 1: why are you spending this money? Obviously, you know you
Speaker 1: love your wife. You want us to buy her something nice,
Speaker 1: but maybe financially you weren't in the position to do that.
Speaker 1: And now you're stressed out because the bills are adding up, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: And you got to think about what's important to her,
Speaker 1: and it might be more important to her to not
Speaker 1: have those stresses because Now this is something that you've
Speaker 1: lost twenty pounds, it's hard for you to communicate with
Speaker 1: your wife. So these are things that you guys have
Speaker 1: to talk about because usually when we spend like that,
Speaker 1: it comes from another place, you know, your emotional spending
Speaker 1: that you're doing. So this is a conversation that yes,
Speaker 1: you are going to have this with your wife. You're
Speaker 1: gonna let her know what it is, and you guys
Speaker 1: are going to solve this issue together and sit down
Speaker 1: and figure out how to come up with the budget.
Speaker 1: What is you know? Moving forward? How do you make
Speaker 1: sure that you don't put yourself in a worse position.
Speaker 1: But I think that this is something you definitely can
Speaker 1: manage and definitely come out stronger as a cup well after.
Speaker 1: So just focus on that. The positive is that you
Speaker 1: guys have each other during this time, you're still making
Speaker 1: money and you have a plan of action. Yeah that
Speaker 1: sounds good. Thank you guys so much. Find that really
Speaker 1: helped on. What credit card was it? What credit card
Speaker 1: company did you use? It was American Eagal I had JAYC, Pennyy, Walmart.
Speaker 1: You know all those master cards and stuff, so you know,
Speaker 1: if you if you call the card companies now they
Speaker 1: a lot of them are diffirmed payments and allowing you
Speaker 1: to put things on hold for a little bit, so
Speaker 1: you can use that to definitely catch up a little bit.
Speaker 1: But I would definitely call every credit card company and
Speaker 1: tell them what's going on, especially with the coronavirus thing,
Speaker 1: and most cards companies are very being very lenient and
Speaker 1: helping people out. That sounds great, guys, Thank you so much.

Speaker 1: the one second. Hey, Mona, you an work? No, I'm
Speaker 1: ama way to work? Okay, So before we get out
Speaker 1: of where do you work? Mona? I work at a
Speaker 1: doctor's office and there boring Michigan. Okay, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: so it's going on, I'm gonna ask ye. So basically,
Speaker 1: I've been working at this job for six years. My
Speaker 1: third office an m A, and now i'm office manager.
Speaker 1: I'm the only black person, and I'm also the youngest person,
Speaker 1: and I deal with racism quite often. Um. I had
Speaker 1: a co worker who said that she didn't know that
Speaker 1: the N word was considered racist. When they buy lunch
Speaker 1: without asking me what I want, they always buy me
Speaker 1: fried chickens. I don't even really eat fried chickens. Um,
Speaker 1: just comments like I know you like rap and I
Speaker 1: don't even care for rap. Just a lot of things
Speaker 1: like that, and I'm at a point where I'm really
Speaker 1: getting tired of it and I don't know how to
Speaker 1: handle it. First of all, y'all need some diversity in
Speaker 1: that office, right, and that is something that they need
Speaker 1: to take seriously because a lot of places are having
Speaker 1: to make sure that they even have like people who
Speaker 1: work as far as helping create diversity and office environments,
Speaker 1: because as you can see, when you don't have diversity,
Speaker 1: people think that black people are monolithic. Yeah. Even I'm
Speaker 1: the youngest person and also the office manager, So I
Speaker 1: don't know, Now, how do you respond when these things happen,
Speaker 1: do you point it out and say, just so you know,
Speaker 1: just because I'm black doesn't mean I like five chicken,
Speaker 1: or just because I'm black doesn't mean I listen to
Speaker 1: rap music all day. Sometimes I'll do, sometimes I don't.
Speaker 1: What depends on how anger I am. Like when she
Speaker 1: made the comment about the INN word that she didn't
Speaker 1: know what was offensive, I basically d care to herself
Speaker 1: her that the N word or was created way back
Speaker 1: in slavery and it was always so identify black people
Speaker 1: as being like inferior, and that words never have been okay,
Speaker 1: like common sense. I actually use the word common sense.
Speaker 1: And was that beneficial when you had that conversation. I'm
Speaker 1: just curious, not really, you know what, I'm a big
Speaker 1: fan at work when things what is that noise? Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan when things are going on at
Speaker 1: work like that to leave a paper trail, And what
Speaker 1: that means is when these incidents do happen, I would
Speaker 1: make sure that I document them, as far as sending
Speaker 1: an email out to whoever the supervisor is or whoever
Speaker 1: it is that you need to send that email to,
Speaker 1: so that you have all of that documented, because that way.
Speaker 1: It makes people think twice about what they're doing, and
Speaker 1: it makes people take things seriously. And I would also
Speaker 1: request that we bring in somebody to do some diversity
Speaker 1: training and say, look, this is a very environment where
Speaker 1: I'm the only black person, I'm the youngest person here,
Speaker 1: and I feel like this is not representative of the
Speaker 1: people who we serve in the community. And I would
Speaker 1: put that in an email as well. But I think
Speaker 1: it's important for you to document when these things happen
Speaker 1: and to educate people, which it sucks because I wouldn't
Speaker 1: want that to have to be my job, but this
Speaker 1: is also laying down the foundation for your corporation to
Speaker 1: be even more diverse in the future. And if that
Speaker 1: means recruiting people other black people to come and other
Speaker 1: people of color to come and work in that office,
Speaker 1: then that's what they need to do. They need to
Speaker 1: take steps towards doing those things right. I would think so,
Speaker 1: because I'm personally like I'm at a point where it's
Speaker 1: starting to turn into anger. At first, it was just
Speaker 1: like all those just my ignorant coworkers, but now it's
Speaker 1: starting to like really bother me because some stuff is
Speaker 1: just common sense. Have you spoken to a supervisor. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm the manager and it's a private practice, so like
Speaker 1: I am the supervisor, so it's like it's and then
Speaker 1: I've talked to my bas like the actual doctor before
Speaker 1: and he hasn't really done much about it. I don't. Well, girl,
Speaker 1: it's time for you to flex your authority as the
Speaker 1: office manager, and maybe you need to take the initiative
Speaker 1: to bring in more people, a more diverse staff. But
Speaker 1: also maybe it's time for you to call a meeting
Speaker 1: with everybody and be like less, some ground rules down here,
Speaker 1: and let's go over anything and put all these things
Speaker 1: on the table and make it mandatory for people to come.
Speaker 1: I can agree with that. I can do that, all right,
Speaker 1: I hear how this turns out. I've been bothered since
Speaker 1: this whole conversation started. I'm judging you for not liking
Speaker 1: fried chicken and rap music. Like, what the hell's wrong
Speaker 1: with you? Don't let what other people like chicken? I
Speaker 1: like chicken it's not fried, like rap, but also like country,
Speaker 1: also like R and B, also like rock. I like
Speaker 1: different things. And the problem isn't that that I like
Speaker 1: rap music. The problem is you don't know anything about
Speaker 1: me or my personal life to preconceive that I like
Speaker 1: those type of things. You don't want them stereotype of
Speaker 1: you with what you're saying exactly, don't like basically look
Speaker 1: at me and say, oh, you're black, this is who
Speaker 1: you are. No, I'm black and boring. That's not that
Speaker 1: doesn't signify my personality traits. Okay, all I'm saying, be
Speaker 1: saying that, don't let don't don't don't miss out on
Speaker 1: the beauty of Popeyes. Okay, just because you care about
Speaker 1: what other people think of you. All right, somebody bring
Speaker 1: you a Popeyes chicken sand which you appreciate it. I
Speaker 1: get it. I'm chicken. I'm She's like, I might want
Speaker 1: to salad. My goodness, I've never ordered chicken. I was
Speaker 1: working here. Let me ask you a question. I bet
Speaker 1: you every time you get a salad you put real
Speaker 1: chicken in it. I do exactly. What's your favorite what's
Speaker 1: your favorite country song? My favorite country song? I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of like a fake country yards. I look
Speaker 1: like a Taylor su I consider her country. Okay, she's
Speaker 1: popped now. But Mona, I will say this though, you
Speaker 1: are the manager, so I think for you, you have
Speaker 1: the power and the authority. Don't feel like you don't
Speaker 1: have the power and authority to make sure that you
Speaker 1: make certain things happen in that office. Okay, thank you, Mama,
Speaker 1: good luck. I'm on her to flex her authority. Up

Speaker 1: not sure this is you're the person that I want
Speaker 1: to be with, or maybe they'll say, you know what,

Speaker 1: not proud of, that have brought us to the point
Speaker 1: wherehere you are today, and I can accept you for

Speaker 1: I was thinking, but then what if I lose her?
Speaker 1: Because then then that that might resort me again. Spread
Speaker 1: my butt cheezs might haunt you. You know what, though,
Speaker 1: you could either lose her now or lose her later. Right,
Speaker 1: We'll probably gonna break up with you because this point,
Speaker 1: old born if if all you're doing is spreading your
Speaker 1: butt cheeks, that's a that's a boring point. Oh bro,
Speaker 1: that's all you could do? Well? I mean you would

Speaker 1: to the top. Aren't your kids around you? Bro? Okay?
Speaker 1: But yes, definitely please let your girlfriend. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you watch Love is Blind. But Carlton, who was
Speaker 1: sexually fluid, he waited until they were engaged to let

Speaker 1: and that is definitely something that you have to be
Speaker 1: honest about. Was he able to keep his girl? No,
Speaker 1: it did not work out. Oh, no answer. Ye, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna keep this to myself. I just at some point,
Speaker 1: you know, at some point she will find out though.
Speaker 1: Whatever comes to the thought does come to the last,
Speaker 1: that's what they say. But on this when I think
Speaker 1: I'm going to meet the truth, that's another good point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah. Because it's a gay porn like you're
Speaker 1: on like video, people can eventually see you. They will.
Speaker 1: People around you might hold over your head when they
Speaker 1: see her and be like, you know, I'm gonna tell her.
Speaker 1: Have you told her yet? Have you told her yet?
Speaker 1: That's something that you'll always be thinking about what if

Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you
Speaker 1: need relationship advice, call ye about anything. Yeah, as you see,
Speaker 1: really anything you need that? All right, we got more
Speaker 1: coming up next. We're a breakfast club morning. Everybody is
Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the
Speaker 1: breakfast club. Good morning. Now, if you just joined us
Speaker 1: with talking about a statement that did he made yesterday?
Speaker 1: And can we play a statement? Voting is not gonna
Speaker 1: be for free? You know what are we getting in return?
Speaker 1: Five vote? Nothing has changed for a black America. And
Speaker 1: in order for us to vote for Biden, we can't
Speaker 1: be taken for granted like we always are, because we're
Speaker 1: supposed to be Democrats or because people are afraid of Trump.
Speaker 1: It's whoever's going to take care of our community, whoever
Speaker 1: wants to make a deal. It's business. At this point,
Speaker 1: I will hold the vote hostage if I have to.
Speaker 1: First of all, I want to say what Diddy said
Speaker 1: in that video is what I've been on for the
Speaker 1: past year. That's why every presidential candidate that came to
Speaker 1: the breakfast club, I asked them, do they have a
Speaker 1: specific Black agenda? Because I made up my mind a
Speaker 1: long time ago that I was going to vote my interests,
Speaker 1: and my interests are black people. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'm not voting for individuals. And to me, the concept
Speaker 1: is simple. It's when you do business. When you do deals,
Speaker 1: you go into negotiate the terms of what you want.
Speaker 1: That's how we need to start treating democrats. If not,
Speaker 1: black people will be voting out of fear for the
Speaker 1: rest of their lives. And if you're being honest with yourself,
Speaker 1: conditions of black people have been the same in America
Speaker 1: for decades, regardless of who the president is, and we
Speaker 1: will not make any real systemic change in our communities
Speaker 1: until we change our approach to politics. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's too much to ask of a candidate like Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: who owes his political life to black people, to meet
Speaker 1: some demands for black people. Now, now, what do you thinking?
Speaker 1: What I really pay attention to is who are you
Speaker 1: putting around you and surround who are you putting an
Speaker 1: office around you? I think that's what I find to
Speaker 1: be extremely important. I would never say I'm holding my
Speaker 1: vote hostage. What I would say is that these are
Speaker 1: the demands that I met, These are the people I
Speaker 1: want to see in position, and I would want to
Speaker 1: make sure that those things get done. Now, I will
Speaker 1: say this, I mean, for too many years, I think.
Speaker 1: I don't want to say we've been raised, but I
Speaker 1: feel like we've been conditioned that if the Democrat, we
Speaker 1: automatically just vote really instead of really asking for something.
Speaker 1: And with Joe Biden, like I said, I don't necessarily
Speaker 1: think that he cares about our people. I honestly don't
Speaker 1: think that he hasn't stood up and said what he does. Now,
Speaker 1: it's all cooler to accept these things because he knows
Speaker 1: he has to, But does he really care when he
Speaker 1: gets in the office, is he really going to implement
Speaker 1: these plans. I don't know. I don't know. A lot
Speaker 1: of people feel like they have to do whatever it
Speaker 1: takes to get Trump out. But but but it's a campaign, right,
Speaker 1: so during the camping you make, you make a lot
Speaker 1: of promises. Make us some promises. Mother effort simple as
Speaker 1: that Black people give Democrats almost ninety percent of their
Speaker 1: votes in all elections, and we don't we don't ever
Speaker 1: ask anything in return. Let's go to one line. Hello,
Speaker 1: who's this Hey, Victor? Victor, how are you doing? Good morning?
Speaker 1: Hey Victor, good morning. We're talking what it's a statement
Speaker 1: that did? He said? What are your thoughts? Yeah, you're
Speaker 1: to be honest, I'm with Charlemagne in the way, you know,
Speaker 1: holding back, you know, the vote hotpits. That just mean
Speaker 1: that they're not voting for him. But what are you
Speaker 1: gonna do to me? Though? Just because I like the
Speaker 1: other dude, that doesn't mean that I'm a vote for
Speaker 1: you automatically. What do you do for me? That's the
Speaker 1: bottom line, man, simple. Now, let me ask you a question.
Speaker 1: If he says I'm not gonna give you nothing, now,
Speaker 1: what happens in November? Let's just say he does. Okay,
Speaker 1: then let me ask you something, then why should I
Speaker 1: give him If he's not giving anything back, We're stuck
Speaker 1: in the same vote. But if Joe Biden came out
Speaker 1: and said I'm not giving black people nothing, I'm telling
Speaker 1: you right now, I'm not voting if you. If you,
Speaker 1: if he fixing his mouth to say that right now,
Speaker 1: because I know what, man, thank you? Hello, who's this?
Speaker 1: He was something envious que from the brom sounds it going,
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts? Really, I'm really disappointed in you, man,
Speaker 1: I'm really disappointed in you. Has done nothing to earn
Speaker 1: the black vote. He was one of the main creators
Speaker 1: of the nineteen ninety four crime bill alone that put
Speaker 1: behind bars so many black men. So I actually like Pitty,
Speaker 1: but I agree with him right. I feel like any
Speaker 1: candidate has to have something for me in my community.
Speaker 1: And Joe Biden has been dodging the breakfast club to
Speaker 1: even come up here and talk and wanted I want
Speaker 1: us to stop use us. If Donald Trump came with
Speaker 1: a plan to show you know what black people have
Speaker 1: been abused for this amount of time, this is what
Speaker 1: we're gonna give them. We're gonna reform this, We're gonna
Speaker 1: influx with these stimulus packages into our inner city communities.
Speaker 1: I'm going with Trump if he can. I don't know
Speaker 1: about all that. I don't know about all that. We
Speaker 1: can't see people hearing sound bites, so you can't say
Speaker 1: things I would like. I would just vote for Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: He said he would vote for Donald Trump if Donald
Speaker 1: Trump actually put something on the table tangible for black people.
Speaker 1: But you know you can break that up, but envy.
Speaker 1: The only thing I wanted to stop saying is we
Speaker 1: gotta stop saying Joe Biden didn't come on the Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: because people think that we're personally attacking Joe Biden because
Speaker 1: he didn't come on the breakas Club. I want Joe
Speaker 1: Biden to have these three things on his table in
Speaker 1: order for me to feel comfortable voting for him. Number
Speaker 1: one is a black agenda. Number two is a black
Speaker 1: woman running me. Number three he already said he put
Speaker 1: a black woman on the Supreme Court. I want him
Speaker 1: to commit to those things for me to feel really,
Speaker 1: really comfortable going out to vote for him in November. Hello,
Speaker 1: who's this just Blue? Hey guys. I wanted to say
Speaker 1: thank you for taking my phone call, but I wanted
Speaker 1: to say I understand what Diddie is saying as for
Speaker 1: as what he wanted a black agenda, but this is
Speaker 1: not the sound for that. Trump. Oh my god, let
Speaker 1: him talk. Hold on, hold on, let me talk with Charloteagne.
Speaker 1: He spend one back human rights as far as he
Speaker 1: want to nominate another Supreme Court justice that's gonna take
Speaker 1: away women's rights. He rolling back hoods or programs. He's
Speaker 1: trying to take away people's voting rights. Like I definitely
Speaker 1: want a black attender. But man, we gotta get out
Speaker 1: there and vote and get this guy out father here,
Speaker 1: or we're gonna lose more than what we even had
Speaker 1: before he came. I feel you, But man, it feels
Speaker 1: like every single election black people are forced to vote
Speaker 1: out of fear. Every single election, black people are choosing
Speaker 1: between the lesser of two evils. That I just hate
Speaker 1: to see. How united the Republicans always are and how
Speaker 1: divided the Democrats always Well, well you know why, because
Speaker 1: Republicans fall in line, Democrats fall in love. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. We have to love the individual. Republicans
Speaker 1: love their interests, and that's all we need to start doing.
Speaker 1: All right, keep a lot of this to Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne
Speaker 1: the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Hey, now it's
Speaker 1: time for the positive note. Listen man. The positive note
Speaker 1: simply that you know you got my new books, shook
Speaker 1: one anxiety playing tricks on me, and you know. I
Speaker 1: like to talk about positive affirmations a lot. I feel
Speaker 1: like positive affirmation keep you in a mentally healthy space.
Speaker 1: So I just want to tell you today to tell
Speaker 1: yourself a few positive affirmations, like today will be a
Speaker 1: good day. Everything will be okay. I am in control
Speaker 1: of my life and feelings. I have people that love me,
Speaker 1: I have a lot to be grateful for. Tomorrow will
Speaker 1: be better. If you're having a bad day to day
Speaker 1: and everything you need is within you, say that to yourself,
Speaker 1: everything I need is within me. Breakface Club. You y'all
Speaker 1: finish or y'all dumb.
