Speaker 1: was pretty bad, pretty pretty bad for the New York Yankees.
Speaker 1: But they play again tonight. I'm going to the game.
Speaker 1: I'm taking my pops, my sixteen. You might be bad
Speaker 1: luck now I didn't go last night. Okay, I watched
Speaker 1: it from the cram. I'm gonna go to night and
Speaker 1: team the one sixteen one dropping a clues bound for
Speaker 1: the Boston Red Shots. They must be on that old
Speaker 1: school steroids. It was the old school steroids. Course that
Speaker 1: can't happen one at home random. Oh yes, okay, everybody
Speaker 1: knows baseball was better when everybody was on steroids. I
Speaker 1: would know. I would have watched that game that sounded exciting,
Speaker 1: sixteen to one. Everybody was a baton has been been
Speaker 1: real good this year. What is batting? Hitting home runs offense?
Speaker 1: It's been pretty good this year. So anyway for the Yankees,
Speaker 1: I'm going to the game tonight, usually for the Yanks,
Speaker 1: but I'm going to that last night c C Sabathist picture.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go see CC Sabathia win tonight. Now,
Speaker 1: this morning we got from Black Lightning Crust Williams joining us. Yes,
Speaker 1: because Black Lightning Season two premiers tonight on the CW.
Speaker 1: Isn't Erica Alexander joining the cast? Now? I saw that
Speaker 1: that'd be interesting because he used to play school on
Speaker 1: Living Single, which I didn't know. It didn't It didn't
Speaker 1: connect with me. It didn't click with me until yesterday.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh shoot, that is school from living. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so we'll kick it with him in a little bit,
Speaker 1: and we got front pagers. What we're talking about, you, Well,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump went Chicago to do stop and frisk policies.
Speaker 1: Now about that, all right, we'll get into all that
Speaker 1: when we come back. Keeping lockes the Breakfast Club, Good
Speaker 1: morning morning. Everybody is DJ mv Angela yee, Charlemagne the
Speaker 1: guy we are the breakfast Club's getting some front page news. Now.
Speaker 1: Last night and Monday night football, the New Orleans Saints
Speaker 1: beat the Redskins forty three nineteen. Now, this game is
Speaker 1: so great because my division sucks, right, the Eagles suck,
Speaker 1: the Cowboys suck, the Redskins are halfway decent, and the
Speaker 1: Giant sucks. So I gotta like I'm only one game
Speaker 1: away from being the second place. Aren't watching? Foo? I
Speaker 1: don't know what you're talking about. As a Dallas Cowboy fan,
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm standing with Cat. Now you staying
Speaker 1: Cat and the Yankees lost last night sixteen to when
Speaker 1: they play tonight, CCS on the mound. All right, what
Speaker 1: else were talking about? You? Well, Donald Trump is urging
Speaker 1: Chicago to adopt stop and frisk policies. He said, I
Speaker 1: have directed the Attorney General's office to immediately go to
Speaker 1: the great City of Chicago to help straighten out the
Speaker 1: terrible shooting wave. I'm going to straighten it out and
Speaker 1: straighten it out fast. He wants the FEDS to work
Speaker 1: with the local authorities to try to change the terrible
Speaker 1: deal the city of Chicago entered him with ACLU and
Speaker 1: to strongly consider stop and frisk. He said, it works,
Speaker 1: and it was meant for problems like Chicago. It was
Speaker 1: meant for it. Stop and frisk. Well, stopping frisk would
Speaker 1: absolutely increase racial profile and because they would talk your point,
Speaker 1: disfranchise areas which are heavily populated by black and brown people.
Speaker 1: But it has to be some productive way to come
Speaker 1: back gain crime and gun violence in Chicago. So my
Speaker 1: question is, didn't Ye gets safe after the stopping frisc
Speaker 1: Actually did not know now the NYPD did you stopping frisk?
Speaker 1: And he accredited that to Rudy Giuliani. A judge did
Speaker 1: rule that it discriminated against my nerves, which it did
Speaker 1: because you could get stopped as a black person, were
Speaker 1: getting stopped with so much more frequently than white people.
Speaker 1: And then a small thing like having a bag of
Speaker 1: weed on you might end you up, might land you
Speaker 1: in prison, and then you have to sit there until
Speaker 1: you can get bail or not. So the city record,
Speaker 1: so the city didn't get say they actually reduced when
Speaker 1: they reduced the use of stopping frisk, then the crime
Speaker 1: dropped even more after stopped doing stapp and frisk. So,
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no way to see if stopping frist work.
Speaker 1: Then if you tested it on a huge city like
Speaker 1: New York, the biggest thing in America, and it didn't work,
Speaker 1: while would you implemented as well, it makes no sense.
Speaker 1: Crime actually jobed when they stopped using staff and frisk
Speaker 1: all right. Now. In addition to that, Donald Trump apologized
Speaker 1: to Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation. Here's what he had
Speaker 1: to say on behalf of our nation. I want to
Speaker 1: apologize to Brett and the entire Kavanaugh family for the
Speaker 1: terrible pain and suffering you have been forced to endure.
Speaker 1: Those who stepped forward to serve our country deserve a
Speaker 1: fair evaluation, not a campaign of political and personal destruction
Speaker 1: based on lies and deception our country. A man or
Speaker 1: a woman must always be presumed innocent unless and until
Speaker 1: proven guilty. And with that, I must say that you, sir,
Speaker 1: were proven innocent. I saw people mad at that. But
Speaker 1: I mean, if you believe Kavanaugh didn't do it and
Speaker 1: he deserves an apology, well, he wasn't proven innocent. They
Speaker 1: just couldn't prove that he did it. So we just
Speaker 1: don't know. We don't know if he did it or not.
Speaker 1: They didn't prove that she mean, they didn't prove that
Speaker 1: she was lying. Yeah, but I mean he was technically
Speaker 1: and whatever that court was or whatever, but he wasn't
Speaker 1: in court. It was just really a job interview. It
Speaker 1: wasn't a trial or they investigated. They investigated it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but people had problems with the FBI investigation because there
Speaker 1: were a lot of witnesses that could have come forward
Speaker 1: that they didn't investigate. So the whole thing wasn't a
Speaker 1: trial that you're innocent. This is just basically, well, they
Speaker 1: clearly investigated in their in their mind, they found found
Speaker 1: like he didn't do anything. So if you believe Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: didn't do it, then he deserves an apology. If you
Speaker 1: believe he did do it, then you feel like an
Speaker 1: apology was inappropriate. Right. I can't say that he was
Speaker 1: proven instant though. This wasn't in a court of law
Speaker 1: where you were proving anything. It's just you know, we
Speaker 1: don't know. We'll never really know how he was proven innocent.
Speaker 1: And whatever that court was or whatever it was investigating,
Speaker 1: it was investigent. It was investigating. Yeah, all right, and
Speaker 1: the Flint here's good news. They're getting safe water fountains,
Speaker 1: thinks to Elon Musk. The Musk Foundation is donated donating
Speaker 1: money to install knew water fountains the filtration systems at
Speaker 1: all of the schools. So that's a great thing, a
Speaker 1: positive thing that happened. Yes, it is. Drop on a
Speaker 1: blue bump for Elon Musk right after you scare everybody
Speaker 1: in LA again, Why don't even keep falling for that?
Speaker 1: Every time space x launching something, it's some R and
Speaker 1: B star recording it in the sky saying, what is that?
Speaker 1: What if that happens every few months? Ms is launching
Speaker 1: rockets through SpaceX every few months, and we fall for
Speaker 1: the same trick over and over. It's like Kanye's Magga
Speaker 1: had at this point, come on, oh, and I just
Speaker 1: want to say that that limo that crashed a day ago,
Speaker 1: that twenty people were killed. They said that that car
Speaker 1: didn't have the right inspection and the driver didn't have
Speaker 1: the right license to be driving that limo. So again,
Speaker 1: rest in peace to anybody who last, anybody in that crash.
Speaker 1: It's horrible, and they're getting more and more details about
Speaker 1: who owned it and more and more details about the car.
Speaker 1: Is just very, very crazy. So if you do have
Speaker 1: to take a limo, they're saying, no matter what it is,
Speaker 1: whether it's prom whether it's wedding, whether it's going out,
Speaker 1: do your homework because some of these cars are not
Speaker 1: even registered in that license right, So just definitely do
Speaker 1: your homework, all right, Well, last front page news. Get

Speaker 1: own at late night TV show. All right, we'll get
Speaker 1: into all that when we come back. Keep it locked
Speaker 1: as to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Shout
Speaker 1: to my homie Deep Powis today it's his birthday, turns
Speaker 1: forty two. Happy birthday, Happy birthday to him. All Right,
Speaker 1: now let's get to these rumors. Let's talk new late
Speaker 1: night show. Listen, Oh gosh, report guys, it's the rum
Speaker 1: report the Breakfast Club. But it looks like we might
Speaker 1: be seeing Nick Cannon on your TV screens on late
Speaker 1: night television. He has ink to deal. He's going to
Speaker 1: develop a series for Fox. They said it's untitled right now,
Speaker 1: and it will cover topical subjects like pop culture commentary,
Speaker 1: celebrity interviews, music performances, and comedy acts as well. Salute
Speaker 1: to Fox would being for not being afraid of Nick
Speaker 1: Cannon's head wraps. Okay, people people like safe Nick Cannon.
Speaker 1: They don't like militant Nick Cannon. When you started talking
Speaker 1: all that black power stuff, you know, they walked away.
Speaker 1: NBC did. So it's a beautiful thing to see Fox
Speaker 1: embrace with NBC couldn't handle. Well. Yeah, I'm glad. I'll
Speaker 1: definitely be supportive of that. They haven't announced a date
Speaker 1: for that talk show now. Kanye West is supposedly going
Speaker 1: to meet with Donald Trump and Derek Kushner at the
Speaker 1: White House at some point this week, So we don't
Speaker 1: know exactly when that's going to happen, but according to reports,
Speaker 1: that's going to go down sometimes going on. I have
Speaker 1: no idea. Did he get back on social media yet
Speaker 1: or is he still gone? I don't know from all
Speaker 1: his accounts. I think he's off all right, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think he's off. Um. Now, Donald Trump has some issues
Speaker 1: now with Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift posted and she's never
Speaker 1: voiced her own political agendas or anything any support that
Speaker 1: she's given to anybody, but now I guess she felt
Speaker 1: the need. She posted on Instagram. I'm writing this post
Speaker 1: about the upcoming midterm elections on November six, in which
Speaker 1: I'll be voting in the state of Tennessee. In the past,
Speaker 1: I've been reluctant to publicly voice my political opinions, but
Speaker 1: due to several events in my life and in the
Speaker 1: world in the past two years, I feel very differently
Speaker 1: about that now. And she goes on to support a Democrat.
Speaker 1: She's voting for two Democrats in that state, and she's
Speaker 1: also going against the Republican Marsha Blackburn, who was running
Speaker 1: for Senate there. Well, Donald Trump didn't like that at all.
Speaker 1: And here's what he had to say about Taylor Swift.
Speaker 1: You know, well, Marsha Blackburn is doing a very good
Speaker 1: job in Tennessee. She's leading now substantially, which you should.
Speaker 1: I'm sure Taylor Swift does nothing or not doesn't know
Speaker 1: what to think about her. And let's say that I
Speaker 1: like Taylor's music about twenty percent. Now, okay, I think
Speaker 1: that's crazy. Now, be aware, though, if you are not
Speaker 1: registered to vote. Today in some states is the last
Speaker 1: day to be able to register to vote. To make
Speaker 1: sure you check your team states dot org to see
Speaker 1: in your state when is the last day, But for
Speaker 1: fifteen different states, yesterday is the last day for you
Speaker 1: to register, so make sure you go ahead and check that.
Speaker 1: I wonder what Taylors's political leanings were before this administration.
Speaker 1: I just assumed she was conservative, which is my fault
Speaker 1: for profiling. But I just assume that I wonder what
Speaker 1: her political leanings were before this administration. Well, all we
Speaker 1: know is that Instagram post did bring a spike voter registration.
Speaker 1: According to vote dot org yesterday, there were about fifty
Speaker 1: one tho new registrations in the past twenty four hours,
Speaker 1: and in the state of Tennessee alone, there were about
Speaker 1: thirty five hundred new registrations so far. No. Well, and
Speaker 1: goes to make the power of Manny's Yeah, so that's
Speaker 1: a big deal that people are going to go out
Speaker 1: and now and register to vote just because of Taylor
Speaker 1: Swift saying what you have to say and putting that
Speaker 1: information out there. All right. Jim Jones has announced a
Speaker 1: new Diplomats album and release date as well, So if
Speaker 1: you guys are excited, it's going to be the follow
Speaker 1: up to the Diplomats two thousand and four album Diplomatic
Speaker 1: Community two all right. So they actually announced this at
Speaker 1: the A three C Festival. I've seen him shooting a
Speaker 1: video yesterday too. Yes, it's going to be coming out
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving and it's called Diplomatic Ties. I'm here for that,
Speaker 1: all you guys. So Thanksgiving is on Thursday, November twenty second,

Speaker 1: be in that. So we get to see post Malone
Speaker 1: on the big screen as well. So I see him
Speaker 1: taking some shots with Nas yesterday. O post Malone, post
Speaker 1: malhonea Nas were together. I see him taking shots. The
Speaker 1: post would have to cover up all his tattoos and
Speaker 1: everything to really act, right, depends on playing less. He's
Speaker 1: being super typecasted. Yeah, it plays on the character. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have no IDEA banker definitely a biker. Biker, definitely
Speaker 1: a biker with all those tattoos or who lever Well.
Speaker 1: Congratulations to him. That's a great first acting role to
Speaker 1: be alongside market. I think post Malone is a great clown.
Speaker 1: It's going to be a Netflix film also, by the way. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back,
Speaker 1: we got front page news. What we are talking about
Speaker 1: frontage nugi. Well, let's talk about Flint. Find out what's
Speaker 1: happening for schools and Flint thanks to Elon Musk. All Right,
Speaker 1: we'll get to that when we come back. Keep it locked.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ MVY,
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Let's getting some front page news now. Last night Major
Speaker 1: League Baseball, the Yankees got blown away by the Boys
Speaker 1: to Red Sox sixteen to one. But don't worry. Game
Speaker 1: three tonight. CC's on the mount taking my pops and
Speaker 1: my son today, so it should be a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: The Ashtrolls beat the Indians eleven three, and the Dodgers
Speaker 1: beat the Brave six two. Now in Monday Night football,
Speaker 1: the Saints beat the Redskins forty three nineteen, which is
Speaker 1: great for me because my division sucks. So the Giants
Speaker 1: are like, what, one in four and we are in
Speaker 1: third place, so that's not bad. Listen, man, you know
Speaker 1: I'm a Dallas Cowboy fan. My team is in that
Speaker 1: NFC East, but I'm not watching football, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying now, You're not watching from standwood cap All right, Okay,
Speaker 1: what else we talking about? Hurricane Michael is taking aim now,
Speaker 1: so some counties in Florida have in order to evacuate. Also,
Speaker 1: there will be damaging wins across the Florida Panhandle, southern Georgia,
Speaker 1: in southeast Alabama as Michael is moving inland. So just
Speaker 1: giving y'all their heads up. If you're flying traveling, make
Speaker 1: sure you check on all of that as well. I'm
Speaker 1: also in Flint, schools are getting safe water fountains. That's
Speaker 1: because of a half a million dollar donation from Elon Musk.
Speaker 1: They are donating money to install new water fountains with
Speaker 1: filtration systems at all of the schools. It's a crazy
Speaker 1: they're still living with these issues in Flint. Absolutely, it's
Speaker 1: crazy that he's still living with those issues, and it's
Speaker 1: crazy that Elon must keep launching those rockets from SpaceX
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles and people keep falling forward. Every single time,
Speaker 1: like every few months is some R and B single
Speaker 1: with the camera in the sky talking about what is
Speaker 1: that in the sky. You should know what's in the
Speaker 1: sky by now. It's rockets from SpaceX. Alright. And Donald
Speaker 1: Trump has apologized to Brett Kavanaugh for sexual misconduct allegations.
Speaker 1: He apologized during Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation. Here's what he said
Speaker 1: on behalf of our nation. I want to apologize to
Speaker 1: Brett and the entire Cavanaugh family for the terrible pain
Speaker 1: and suffering you have been forced to endure. Those who
Speaker 1: stepped forward to serve our country deserve a fair evaluation,
Speaker 1: not a campaign of political and personal destruction based on
Speaker 1: lies and deception our country. A man or a woman
Speaker 1: must always be presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
Speaker 1: And with that I must say that you, sir, were
Speaker 1: proven innocent. But the only problem with that apologies. You
Speaker 1: can't apologize for the whole nation because some people in
Speaker 1: the nation think Kavanaugh is guilty. If you believe Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: didn't do it, then he deserves an apology. Okay, if
Speaker 1: you should believe he did do it and you feel
Speaker 1: like he doesn't deserve an apology. And a lot of
Speaker 1: people were upset with that apology just because they said
Speaker 1: it wasn't anything proven by this, because it wasn't a trial.
Speaker 1: It was basically just an FBI investigation that they felt
Speaker 1: was flawed as well. All right, well that is your
Speaker 1: front page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now
Speaker 1: when we come back, let's take your calls. Eight one
Speaker 1: five one oh five one. Yesterday my wife and I
Speaker 1: were talking about this. This meme was floating around. Right
Speaker 1: in the meme is parents, please stop sending your kids
Speaker 1: to school with the idea someone hits you, you hit
Speaker 1: them back. You are part of the problem. What's the problem,
Speaker 1: let's talk about it. And so it's my problem that
Speaker 1: your child is putting the hands on my child, and
Speaker 1: then when my child defends himself, they're part of the problem.
Speaker 1: Teaching my child to defend themself as a problem. Five
Speaker 1: eight five one on five. While they have self defend
Speaker 1: classes for kids, what's the kids? Why kids in karate?
Speaker 1: Kids learn how to box point? What's the point in karate?
Speaker 1: They teach you not to be the aggressive. But if
Speaker 1: somebody push their heads on you, then you defend yourself.
Speaker 1: Somebody teach youself. Let me ask you this. If a
Speaker 1: little girl hits your little boy, should he beat her up?
Speaker 1: But we didn't say beat up. I'm just asking our
Speaker 1: should he hit her back? Or I'm just asking you
Speaker 1: all got to go to the extreme of gender. You know,
Speaker 1: we ain't talking about damn gender. No, but we're saying,
Speaker 1: you're teaching your kids to hit somebody back if they
Speaker 1: hit you. Do you talk to women? All right, That's
Speaker 1: what I'm asking I don't have kids. I'm asking a question. Well,
Speaker 1: I tell I tell my kids if somebody hits them,
Speaker 1: you hit him back. But if a boy hit you
Speaker 1: or pushes you, you hit them back. Yes, I do
Speaker 1: tell him. But Logan went a little too far when
Speaker 1: he was a kid, and he would really hit these
Speaker 1: kids back. And the problem was is when these kids
Speaker 1: pushed the hit Logan, Logan wouldn't cry. So Logan hit
Speaker 1: the kid back. The kid cries, and then Logan would
Speaker 1: get in trouble and we would always stay in the
Speaker 1: principal's office. But I had to tell him that if
Speaker 1: you if you get hit once, tell it, teach it
Speaker 1: the second time. Defend yourself. No, I had to tell
Speaker 1: him because he would always get in trouble because, like
Speaker 1: I said, he logan plays football a rough kid. You
Speaker 1: hit him, he's not crying. Hey. The reason I put
Speaker 1: my daughter in my ten year daughter in tagwon door early. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, you're gonna get a take down, right, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: And I tell the same thing with my girls. Keep
Speaker 1: their hands to theyself. How about everybody keep their hands
Speaker 1: to theyself. But in the event that some child does
Speaker 1: put their hand on my child and my child knows how,
Speaker 1: it's defend it. And I agree with you and a problem.
Speaker 1: And I really think, and this is gonna sound crazy,
Speaker 1: I really think it reduces bullet because now if you
Speaker 1: if you show your kid, if somebody hit you, you
Speaker 1: hit them back. You defend yourself. I remember teaching my
Speaker 1: daughter how to snap on the bus, Like, how did
Speaker 1: this people on the bus? If people did, sure, just
Speaker 1: it reduced bullet Now somebody had need to come over
Speaker 1: here for that that type of advice. Okay, her daddy
Speaker 1: don't know how to do those snaps, but you know,
Speaker 1: you know I would turn to tell her come over here.
Speaker 1: She needs some advice on how to hurt people feelings verbally.
Speaker 1: I like, your mama, that's that's what How far your mama,
Speaker 1: that's all you got. But your mama driving Toyota. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I couldn't think wow, wow, yeah wow, that's
Speaker 1: that's all I could come with it. Discust, I know.
Speaker 1: But anyway, eight hundred five A five one oh five one.
Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with Toyota's parents. Please stop sending your kids
Speaker 1: to school with the idea someone here to don't talk
Speaker 1: about you hit them Offend me because I grew up
Speaker 1: in a Corolla US. I had a hundred of Toyota too.
Speaker 1: But I've justly hurt your feelings, and that's what I
Speaker 1: was supposed to do. But the eight hundred five A
Speaker 1: five one oh five one. Someone hits you, you hit
Speaker 1: them back. You are part of the problem. Do you agree?
Speaker 1: Call us now, It's the Breakfast Club. Come morning morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ mvy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. Now if you just joined us.
Speaker 1: This was a conversation to my crib last night. This
Speaker 1: meme was going around and the meme went like this, parents,
Speaker 1: please stop sitting your kids to school with the idea
Speaker 1: someone hit you, you hit them back. You are part
Speaker 1: of the problem. See I don't. I don't understand this logic.
Speaker 1: And the reason I understand this logic is because that's
Speaker 1: not how the world works. You know, we're always taught
Speaker 1: to never be the aggressor by words of action, but
Speaker 1: in the event you are attacked, you should defend yourself.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. And my daughter is ten
Speaker 1: years old. She was taking taiekwondo very early on. I
Speaker 1: put her in taekwondo because I want her to be
Speaker 1: able to defend herself. You put my hand, you put
Speaker 1: your hands on my daughter. She knows how to defend herself. Now,
Speaker 1: I did the same thing with my kids. My daughter
Speaker 1: is in tai Kwando, my son is in Tai Kwando.
Speaker 1: My son even went to boxing, and that was part
Speaker 1: of the thing. If somebody hit you, you hit them back.
Speaker 1: And especially because my kids are so small, like I
Speaker 1: have small kids, Logan is a small kid, so and
Speaker 1: that's what will happened. The only problem with that is
Speaker 1: when Logan wound up hitting these kids back, these kids
Speaker 1: would cry. Because Logan played football, he's rough, he boxed,
Speaker 1: he you know, did karate. So when these kids hit him,
Speaker 1: he didn't cry. But as soon as Logan hit the kid,
Speaker 1: the kid would cry and all the principal or teachers
Speaker 1: would see what the kids a little one trouble. So
Speaker 1: I have to change it a little bit and say
Speaker 1: the first time you get hit, you tell it teacher.
Speaker 1: Second time you defend yourself. Oh make him, don't let
Speaker 1: him marginalize himself, suppress his strip just because somebody don't
Speaker 1: know how to keep their hands to theyself. That's what
Speaker 1: happens in life and life. You put your hands on somebody,
Speaker 1: you push somebody, They may punch you, and guess what
Speaker 1: that punch maybe Mike Tyson level right, and that's your fault.
Speaker 1: You may get hit by the next Canelo Aluriz and
Speaker 1: don't even know. Hey, hey, what were you taught you?
Speaker 1: Of course we retretted somebody hits you to hit them back,
Speaker 1: but also to let the teacher know so that it's
Speaker 1: not just a situation where you end up fighting all
Speaker 1: the time. So you gotta let the teacher know. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's easier, that's easier. Said now, my dad said the
Speaker 1: same thing. If y'all know smack from Smack DVD. Does
Speaker 1: the goddamn smackstory again? Yes, Mike, it's been the only fighting.
Speaker 1: That's the only one when people who know Smack Smack
Speaker 1: hit me and I hit Smack back every single time.
Speaker 1: But it is what it was. That's when my dad
Speaker 1: taught me. Let's go to the phone line, Tello. Who's
Speaker 1: this Brittany, Hey, brig, good morning. What do you think
Speaker 1: about that statement? Um? I have to disagree. I have
Speaker 1: a I have a daughter and a son at school,
Speaker 1: and um, they both know, if anybody hit them, you
Speaker 1: hit them back. If anybody has a problem with that
Speaker 1: on fight kids too, you know that. But I ain't
Speaker 1: mad at you. Yeah, I'm fit kids too, because I
Speaker 1: don't allow that bullying. I have a son and I
Speaker 1: tell them all the time, don't put your hands on
Speaker 1: the girl. But if somebody hits you, you hit them back.
Speaker 1: Goddamn right. Absolutely. And I even tell my son if
Speaker 1: somebody puts their hands on my daughter, you gotta defended sister.
Speaker 1: Thank you, mom. That's what my son does. Helcome no
Speaker 1: proper Hello. Who's this Hi? This is Carl and Carl kids.
Speaker 1: Good morning. What do you think about that statement? N
Speaker 1: y'all agree? With you. I think if someone is hitting you,
Speaker 1: you definitely need to hit them back or her back,
Speaker 1: because it will reduce bullying. Yeah, if they're going to
Speaker 1: keep them your faith and it will continue. It's hard
Speaker 1: because I'm an educator and I also have two sons,
Speaker 1: but I definitely think you need to hit them back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because that's the thing, the thing at the end of
Speaker 1: the day when it comes to bully, and bully's only
Speaker 1: going to keep doing what you allowed him to do. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's exactly right. So I just have to say. And
Speaker 1: as far as whether or not as a girl or boy,
Speaker 1: a girl crass the skin of my son's face when
Speaker 1: he was in third grade. So I teach my son
Speaker 1: to not beat him up. But you can get them
Speaker 1: off you without really fighting them. But you can't let
Speaker 1: them today your personal face. You have to get them back. Okay,
Speaker 1: thank you mama. Well you guys have a great guy
Speaker 1: you too, Grace, Good morning, Hello morning, good morning. Now,
Speaker 1: it was a meme going around where somebody said someone
Speaker 1: hits you, you hit them back. You are part of
Speaker 1: the problem, meaning that idea is part of the problem.
Speaker 1: What do you think I disagree. I would tell my
Speaker 1: kids to hit back. No one should be able to
Speaker 1: be put the hand on your on your face or
Speaker 1: anybody that's rightolutely not. I told my kids I'm a
Speaker 1: grandmother now, and I told my girl so I'm the
Speaker 1: same thing. You don't hit first, but if somebody hit you,
Speaker 1: you'll hit them back. And if you come home and
Speaker 1: you'll end them back, then I'm gonna hit you absolutely.
Speaker 1: And my dad might have told me that one to today. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't understand this unrealistic way of thinking. And then
Speaker 1: one thing I tell my daughter too is man like,
Speaker 1: you know, don't worry about the consequences from school. Don't
Speaker 1: worry about what the teacher's gonna say to you, don't
Speaker 1: worry about the principle gonna say to you. We got this,
Speaker 1: don't worry about that. Tell them what I'm saying. You
Speaker 1: will not get in trouble at home now. Somebody put
Speaker 1: their hands on you and you defend yourself. Not at all.
Speaker 1: And we've been to the principal many of times for this.
Speaker 1: But the eight D five eight five one oh five one.
Speaker 1: This meme was floating around yesterday, so let's talk about it. Parents,
Speaker 1: Please stop sending your kids to school with the idea,
Speaker 1: someone hit you, you hit them back. You are a
Speaker 1: part of the problem. What do you think? What are
Speaker 1: your thoughts calling us up? Now? Was the breakfast Club
Speaker 1: in the morning? Everybody is DJ mvy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Good morning if
Speaker 1: you just joined us. This conversation comes from a meme
Speaker 1: that was floating around yesterday. Now, parents, please stop sending
Speaker 1: your kids to school with the idea someone hit you,
Speaker 1: you hit them back. You are a part of the problem.
Speaker 1: So they want your kids to grow up to be punks.
Speaker 1: They want your kids to grow up to be suckers
Speaker 1: who don't know how to defend themselves. Now, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be honest. Right, growing up in Queens, it was more,
Speaker 1: of course minorities, right, more Black, more Spanish or Latino's Caribbean,
Speaker 1: and that was the mentality. Someone hit you, you hit
Speaker 1: them back, and if you don't hit back, when you
Speaker 1: get home, you're fighting your pops. That's that's what it was. Yeah.
Speaker 1: When I moved over out to Jersey, white people think
Speaker 1: a little differently. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie like they
Speaker 1: they tell first they somebody hit you, go tell a teacher,
Speaker 1: which which I don't necessarily agree with. I think that
Speaker 1: kind of starts bullying. I think they put that into
Speaker 1: the black kid's head in these rich white areas because
Speaker 1: they want us to be goddamn you know, marginalized and
Speaker 1: oppressed all the mother ff and time. They want us
Speaker 1: to feel like victims all the time. If the white
Speaker 1: man hit you, you don't hit them back, all right,
Speaker 1: So I don't go I don't see color that. I
Speaker 1: don't see color when it comes to I don't see
Speaker 1: color when it comes to defending yourself. If somebody puts
Speaker 1: their heads on you, regardless of race, you have every
Speaker 1: right to defend yourself. Yeah. Do you tell your kids
Speaker 1: to tell the teacher? Also? Yeah, after you punched him
Speaker 1: in the name out, then you gonna tell the teacher
Speaker 1: he hit me, so I hit him back? Yes, I
Speaker 1: mean they have to. They have to hit first, because
Speaker 1: they can't go tell the teaching. Then't hit Then it
Speaker 1: looks like he you know, planned it. But um, yeah,
Speaker 1: tell him to tell the teacher. But now you know,
Speaker 1: I tell him. If somebody hit you the first time,
Speaker 1: you let it go. The second time you hit back.
Speaker 1: That the old kids, by the way, because if you
Speaker 1: get a hit, if if a kid hits you, and
Speaker 1: then your first inclination is to going to tell the
Speaker 1: teacher your fool. You're fool for the rest of your
Speaker 1: school career. I tell you now, I tell you, bust
Speaker 1: somebody head in the hallways. See didn't see the problem
Speaker 1: with me? Was was Logan a kid to hit him?
Speaker 1: The kid wouldn't cry. Logan plays football, so he doesn't cry,
Speaker 1: So he's gonna hit the kid back, right, And now
Speaker 1: Logan's in the principal's office because the kids crying on
Speaker 1: the that's with them, little white kids in you're a
Speaker 1: rich town, get for hitting on the Dominican all right, now,
Speaker 1: little Dominican boy can fight. Okay, you know what? You
Speaker 1: know what forget you? Hello? Who's this from, Jeff? What
Speaker 1: do you think? Jeff? I said the same thing like
Speaker 1: you say, envy, tell the teacher the first time the
Speaker 1: second time, hit him back. See nobody telling no teacher.
Speaker 1: Ain't nobody got time for that when you get punched
Speaker 1: in the face. I only did that because Logan would
Speaker 1: always get in trouble and because and this is gonna
Speaker 1: sound crazy, one of the few black kids in this
Speaker 1: schoo we were always in the principal's office. I said,
Speaker 1: just chill out, let him hit you first, and he
Speaker 1: does it again, knocked his ass out. That's why I
Speaker 1: did that. But for the for the younger ones, it's
Speaker 1: the same thing. Somebody hit you hit him back, and
Speaker 1: the teacher ain't gonna do nothing to teach. You're gonna
Speaker 1: treat that situation like she had cops. You don't feel
Speaker 1: like doing all that paperwork. All she's gonna do a
Speaker 1: telling boy, telling the boy stop hitting on that, stop
Speaker 1: hitting people. Then what ica. I grew up in Jamaica,
Speaker 1: and that's how I was ready. Somebody lick you look
Speaker 1: them up. So I moved to America. I had kids.
Speaker 1: I tell my kids the same thing, except in a
Speaker 1: different dialect. I don't know. I don't be telling these
Speaker 1: kids to lick each other's cool now that can go
Speaker 1: either way nowadays, going on, ta hey, Trina, what do
Speaker 1: you think about the meme now was floating around yesterday.
Speaker 1: I disagree with it because when our kids were smaller,
Speaker 1: I used to tell them if somebody hit him or
Speaker 1: do something to him, tell the teach her first. If
Speaker 1: she does them do anyse things, then you go ahead
Speaker 1: and defend yourself. Now once they got older, I'm like,
Speaker 1: if somebody hit you hit them back, because sometimes, like
Speaker 1: you said, it's bullying and they need to send up
Speaker 1: for themselves. If you send up for the bullet, they'll quit. Typically, hey,
Speaker 1: just telling the teach her first business whack. No, But
Speaker 1: I did that when Charlotte, Maine. I did that when
Speaker 1: they were really really small, like because I didn't want
Speaker 1: them fighting because I got a son. That's like how
Speaker 1: Envy said his son was. He was. He's in football
Speaker 1: and he's very aggressive. He even had a fight with
Speaker 1: one of the teachers kids one time. So I don't
Speaker 1: I didn't want him to be in or doing it.
Speaker 1: But now is like, since they're older, I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: if they hit you, you hit them back. Don't let
Speaker 1: nobody touch you. They ain't got no business being that
Speaker 1: close to your face and your face though, if they
Speaker 1: hit you hit them back, and that's just that I don't.
Speaker 1: Of course they're high school is now, so I don't
Speaker 1: want them to get locked up. But what you're gonna do?
Speaker 1: And I told the older one, you got to defend
Speaker 1: your sisters. Bro, I'm like, if I'm not there and
Speaker 1: something bout of if you defend your sister, you got
Speaker 1: you gotta make sure you defend and make sure that
Speaker 1: when you the eldest Dominican around the hold down the
Speaker 1: rest of the family. We're not dominican, man. What's the
Speaker 1: more hold of the story? Man? The mold of the
Speaker 1: story has never be the aggressive about word of action.
Speaker 1: But in the event, you are attack in yourself. Simple
Speaker 1: as that. Kids, ain't that. It ain't that serious, not
Speaker 1: like you looking for a fright. I really think that.
Speaker 1: Will you know, limit bullying because bullies will not get
Speaker 1: off if you get punched in the face one time.
Speaker 1: You don't want to bully, That's a fact, because the
Speaker 1: bully is only going to keep doing what you allow
Speaker 1: him to do. Simple as that. And I just I
Speaker 1: always think about the time when Charlemagne was bullying the
Speaker 1: down syndrome kid, and then down he was a slow kid.
Speaker 1: Charlemagne was bullying a slow kid. I wasn't bullying him.
Speaker 1: I was teasing him. It's the same thing. It was
Speaker 1: a joke. And why did you stop? Because he put
Speaker 1: me in the chokehold that that that I felt like
Speaker 1: it was almost over. There would be no Charlemagne on
Speaker 1: the breakfast Claus. I saw, I saw, I saw my
Speaker 1: brief sixteen year old, seventeen year old life flat before
Speaker 1: my eyes in that moment. But thank god the slow
Speaker 1: child to day, and that's gonna calm your ass down right,
Speaker 1: Not really, but you know, but you got them alone.
Speaker 1: I knew to leave slow kids alone. Anybody else could
Speaker 1: get it all right with that slow kids scrimped different.
Speaker 1: You know what? We got roomors on the way, he asked,
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about Kevin hard he was running the
Speaker 1: Chicago Marathon and find out what he witnessed on his run.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Speaker 1: Keep it locked as to Breakfast Club Corning. This is
Speaker 1: the Ruble Report with Angela. So Kevin Hurtt was competing
Speaker 1: in the Chicago Marathon and things got very real now.
Speaker 1: He said he wasn't too happy with his time. Check
Speaker 1: it out Marathon number two complete. Man, I didn't get
Speaker 1: the time I wanted, but the weather was on my ass.
Speaker 1: It rain for the first sixteen miles, but it didn't
Speaker 1: stop me. I ran twenty one mile straight, broke down
Speaker 1: a mile twenty two. Felt like somebody was on the
Speaker 1: roof with a little thing called a cramp, gun shot
Speaker 1: me in my ass feet, froze up, saw two older
Speaker 1: women on themselves, true story. One of them just it
Speaker 1: just came down the back of a leg. The others
Speaker 1: stopped in the grass and moved to short. That's me up.
Speaker 1: But I made it. I ran with a purpose. Today,
Speaker 1: I'm about to send more kids to college. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: double up on what I did. Yes, you know, guys
Speaker 1: run his diarrhea is real. Yeah, you talk about it
Speaker 1: all the time. Yeah, so when when you run a marathon,
Speaker 1: it happens all the time. You can look it up
Speaker 1: online and see pitches of people actually winning the marathons.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you poop beforehand? Though? If you know what that's
Speaker 1: gonna happen when you run twenty six miles. It kind
Speaker 1: of like breaks down your insides while you're running. And
Speaker 1: that's why it happens. It's just a scientifically is what
Speaker 1: can happen to you? I don't even think human beings
Speaker 1: can do that. You can't just poop and keep moving.
Speaker 1: Yes you can, when you're trying to win a marathon,
Speaker 1: you can ain't that's serious, mate, But yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I don't think you can control that from happening like
Speaker 1: you don't anticipate that. I'm sure everybody tries to go beforehand,
Speaker 1: but imagine running twenty six miles. That's a long time.
Speaker 1: Kind of hell. Kevin Hark got time to run marathons.
Speaker 1: He's training, and I'm telling you, talent, I mean, hard
Speaker 1: work beats talent. When talent doesn't work. You can say
Speaker 1: whatever you want about Kevin Hardt. You can say he's
Speaker 1: not funny, but he will outwork your ass all day long.
Speaker 1: And he's funny. I think it's funny. But right now
Speaker 1: Bill on his payroll. According to Radar Online, Bill Cosby
Speaker 1: and jail had some issues. He was trying to tell
Speaker 1: some jokes in prison, and somebody slapped him across the
Speaker 1: face with the chicken patty. Wait a minute, the first
Speaker 1: time he allegedly got slapped in the face with a
Speaker 1: hot dog, Well, no, he did not get slapped. They
Speaker 1: said somebody threw a hot dog. Oh, hit him in
Speaker 1: the face with a hot dog, and then this time
Speaker 1: a chicken patty. Ain't none of this stuff, true, man,
Speaker 1: hot dog bun the first time is what they're saying. Allegedly.
Speaker 1: Now they're saying that he cracked this joke and the
Speaker 1: inmate was mad enough to take his chicken out of
Speaker 1: the bun and plunge it at her. It is true.
Speaker 1: I don't believe any of this. Who told you this?
Speaker 1: What's what's the source online? I don't believe it, I said,
Speaker 1: all right. Jamae Dupree has postponed the launch of his tour.
Speaker 1: He said to all my fans. I know what I'm
Speaker 1: about to say is going to create a very very
Speaker 1: big fire, but due to my schedule and creative changes,
Speaker 1: I don't feel comfortable starting this tour on the fourteenth.
Speaker 1: I honestly believe I need another week to get this
Speaker 1: to where I wanted to be. You gotta gotta seal
Speaker 1: the deal with bow Wow. Can't hit the roll without
Speaker 1: Shaddy Moss now bats that he's back in. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: back in. He's out, he's in. Who knows what people
Speaker 1: bone crushing and bone crushing must be holding it up
Speaker 1: with contract negotiations. All right, Vica Man said, we told
Speaker 1: you about this early year about DJ Scheme. Upset about
Speaker 1: what Vic Menson said during his freestyle Cipher at the
Speaker 1: BT Hip Hop Awards about xxx Dantasion Now, DJ Scheme
Speaker 1: had tweeted out Yober, How are you going to say
Speaker 1: your favorite rapper is an abuser and then follow it
Speaker 1: with the line saying some ish X some ish so
Speaker 1: I won't live long. You can deny it, but everyone
Speaker 1: who was there heard that ish well. Vic Menson went
Speaker 1: on Instagram to actually, I guess, try to give more
Speaker 1: clarity to what it was he was trying to do.
Speaker 1: Here's what he said. Recently, I did a freestyle for
Speaker 1: the BT Awards Cipher addressing and condemning rappers who unabashedly
Speaker 1: abuse women and those who stand up for them and
Speaker 1: even call them legends. I stand behind no statements. It
Speaker 1: was prerecorded weeks ago, and I had no idea a
Speaker 1: grieving mother would be in the audience to honor her
Speaker 1: lost son. I never intended to disrespect her and offer
Speaker 1: my deepest condolences for her loss at the hands of
Speaker 1: gun violence. However, I vehemently reject the trending hip hop
Speaker 1: of championing abusers, and I will not hold my t
Speaker 1: about it. I agree with the overall message. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yes, we should denounce abuses and you
Speaker 1: know people who commit violence against women. But Vick, you
Speaker 1: have to address your own bs first though, because Vic
Speaker 1: Minsa admitted in a song that he choked out his
Speaker 1: girl here on the Breakfast Club. I mean he said
Speaker 1: it in a song, but we talked about it here
Speaker 1: on the Breakfast Club. No, I'm talking about between me
Speaker 1: and her. How how far? Yeah, I mean I was
Speaker 1: just he choked her out in the song. But that's
Speaker 1: that's the beginning of the story. That's that's that's when
Speaker 1: you realize. I mean, that's when I realized that. Wow.
Speaker 1: But that was like maybe two years or something before
Speaker 1: we broke up. So in my album, I deal with
Speaker 1: a lot more of just like some crazy you gotta
Speaker 1: admit your own bs first. You gotta put yourself in
Speaker 1: that mix too, right, Yeah, I would think. So I
Speaker 1: need to apologize for the fact that Xxx and Tasson's
Speaker 1: mother was in the audience. So that's a poor timing
Speaker 1: on his part. All right, Well I'm ante la yee
Speaker 1: and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you,
Speaker 1: miss ye Charlemagne. Yes, so you're giving that, oh man.
Speaker 1: You know, I suffer from parental paranoiacsig. I'm a father
Speaker 1: of three, and I think that we should have some
Speaker 1: rational anxiety when it comes to being a parent. But
Speaker 1: this story right here is why I have that rational anxiety,
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about it four after the hour, all right,
Speaker 1: we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked.
Speaker 1: This to breakfast club, Good morning, ya, don't get today
Speaker 1: For Tuesday October, NiFe goes to a Long Island man
Speaker 1: named Russell Cohen. You know, as a father of three
Speaker 1: beautiful girls, I suffer from the rational anxiety that I
Speaker 1: think comes with being a parent. I call it parental paranoia. Now,
Speaker 1: anyone who suffers from anxiety knows how irrational those fears
Speaker 1: and insecurities that come from suffering from anxiety can be.
Speaker 1: But being a parent, it's a lot of rational anxiety
Speaker 1: that comes with that. I call it rational anxiety because
Speaker 1: I know exactly why I'm anxious when it comes to
Speaker 1: my kids, because they're my kids, okay, and I want
Speaker 1: them to be safe at all times. And one of
Speaker 1: the main ways to ensure safety in America nowadays is
Speaker 1: to avoid crazy at all costs. Okay, crazy as crazy
Speaker 1: situations and most importantly, crazy people. But that is almost
Speaker 1: impossible nowadays because you just don't know who's crazy anymore. Okay,
Speaker 1: All the safe spaces that used to exist in this society.
Speaker 1: All the people we used to could count on to
Speaker 1: not be crazy are sometimes the craziest. For example, the
Speaker 1: church not safe. Okay, crazy people coming there, Remember that
Speaker 1: bastard Dylan Roof ain't police. Some of them are crazy
Speaker 1: and they think we're crazy, so they're scared, and that
Speaker 1: combination of scared and crazy with a gun leads the
Speaker 1: problems a lot of the time. Okay, Walmart, the holy
Speaker 1: grounds of Walmart used to be a safe space, but
Speaker 1: now it's no shortage. You're crazy in there. Someone may
Speaker 1: try to buy your kid for two hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: In schools, oh, the institution that we have to send
Speaker 1: our kids to for eight hours a day. I already
Speaker 1: have their anxiety of potential school shootings. But the most
Speaker 1: anxiety comes from having to entrust our kids safety to
Speaker 1: a bunch of adults that we hope we can count on. Okay,
Speaker 1: a bunch of adults that we hope aren't crazy. But
Speaker 1: Lord have Jesus Christ, we know that's not the case.
Speaker 1: And that brings me to Russell Cohen, who was a
Speaker 1: fifty eight old driving instructor. Now he's not a teacher,
Speaker 1: per se Well, he's an instructor at Suffolk's Auto driving
Speaker 1: school and on Saturday morning he was driving and instructing
Speaker 1: three teams and this happened. Let's go to CBS two
Speaker 1: New York for the report. Please. A mom and daughter
Speaker 1: are telling an incredible story about a driving instructor teaching
Speaker 1: Lila Mabanta over the weekend how to drive. When the
Speaker 1: kids in the car, including Lila, realized that the driver
Speaker 1: something was terribly wrong. He thought he was drunk, Lila right,
Speaker 1: yea or high? He was overly complimenting us and he
Speaker 1: was actually really weird. You say that he was driving
Speaker 1: a radically actually hitting curb. Yeah, he hit a curb place.
Speaker 1: He told him to take us to McDonald's as soon
Speaker 1: as he hit the curb so that we could get
Speaker 1: out as soon as possible. And then he got out
Speaker 1: of the car and he called nine one one, and
Speaker 1: Suffolk Police have arrested Russell Colne, fifty eight years old,
Speaker 1: a driving school instructor. That driving school was contracted Suffolk
Speaker 1: Community College, which says that they are reviewing their policies
Speaker 1: and their contract with the Suffoc County Driving School. Russell Coin,
Speaker 1: you have one job, okay, and that's teach kids how

Speaker 1: it comes to driving, it's where a seatbelt and don't
Speaker 1: drink and drive? Okay, Like those are the basics, all right,
Speaker 1: all right? If you're trying to teach kids what not
Speaker 1: to do behind the wheel, those are the basics, all right.
Speaker 1: These kids had to convince this guy to pull into
Speaker 1: a McDonald's. That's how I know he was drunk, because
Speaker 1: nothing soak up liquor like McDonald's, all right. They had
Speaker 1: to promise this man a sausage, egg and chiefs mcgriddle
Speaker 1: just so they could get to a location to escape. Now,
Speaker 1: Russell was arrested on aggravated DWI and and dangering the
Speaker 1: welfare of children. And the only lesson he taught these
Speaker 1: kids was one they should already know, and that's highways
Speaker 1: can be dieways, the choice is yours, all right, don't

Speaker 1: You're gonna be going through it. Man. I was talking
Speaker 1: about you as a superhero. Yeah, yeah, Well you're always
Speaker 1: in the comics. As a kid, I was in the
Speaker 1: cartoons and stuff because I couldn't afford comics. I couldn't
Speaker 1: afford anything, but I was always into cartoons and superheroes. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Did you know anything about the Black Lightning backstory? I didn't. Um,
Speaker 1: I didn't. I was. I was familiar with like John Stewart,
Speaker 1: Green Lantern, and uh, that was really at the top
Speaker 1: of my list. But then, um, once I read the script,
Speaker 1: and then I started getting into the comics. Um, it was.
Speaker 1: It's so topical, even the comics in the seventies. You
Speaker 1: read some of the seventies comics that they could be
Speaker 1: written today, problems today. But people testing you after the
Speaker 1: first episode, like because comic heads are serious about yes, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: Issue thirty five you were wearing about. Yeah, they all
Speaker 1: know they're crazy. Yeah, But I mean that's why I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna read all of this because I
Speaker 1: know they're gonna test me, and I'm not trying to
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I don't know. I wasn't familiar with
Speaker 1: Black Lightning and I'm a commic kid. I'm a Marvel
Speaker 1: guy though. Okay, yeah, I wasn't familiar with Black Lightning. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a cool I mean, you should pick it up, man,
Speaker 1: especially starting from the seventies. It's a cool, cool comic.
Speaker 1: When I think about it, I'm more of a DC
Speaker 1: guy anyway, because a Superman was always my man trash
Speaker 1: what trash? What? He's so powerful? Man? As white supremacy
Speaker 1: in the flesh. They wanted to think white supremacy is,
Speaker 1: that's what the S stands for. Who was? I was
Speaker 1: somebody I brought it up yesterday. Man, I was like,
Speaker 1: you're like, what's like, what's Batman? Superpower? White privilege? That's
Speaker 1: what it is. That's what it is. A rich white man,
Speaker 1: a rich and title white man. He's Donald Trump. If
Speaker 1: Donald Trump had a heart, My goodness. You wanted to
Speaker 1: be an act of your whole life, right, my whole life.
Speaker 1: I mean every since I was a little kid. You
Speaker 1: went to THTA I did. I went. It was kind
Speaker 1: of like I was the first person in my family
Speaker 1: to go to college. So I was like, I really
Speaker 1: wanted to do that and be the first and complete it.
Speaker 1: And then I was like, and I knew I wanted
Speaker 1: to be an actress. So I was like, I'll go
Speaker 1: this round. That's playing your background for people that don't
Speaker 1: know you were born in Germany. I was born in Germany.
Speaker 1: My father was he was drafted Vietnam, and thankfully he
Speaker 1: didn't have to go to Vietnam. He wanted to being
Speaker 1: stationed in h Germany, in Heidelberg. And then, as a
Speaker 1: story goes, he called my mom and said, come to Germany.
Speaker 1: I want to make a baby. And so that's what happened.
Speaker 1: See born German. Then you moved to Chicago. Move to Chicago,
Speaker 1: that's where my family's real July from. And then my
Speaker 1: parents split up and I moved to la with my
Speaker 1: mother when I was three. And was your mom and
Speaker 1: dad married when he told her to come to Germany? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: they were married. About to say, yeah, you can't call here.
Speaker 1: Conceived in Germany? I was, yeah, did you ever live there?
Speaker 1: Just no, because as soon as I was born, we
Speaker 1: came right back. I gotta get there. I've never been there.
Speaker 1: Got to do a citizenship though, that's what they say,
Speaker 1: and I might you don't need to things keep going
Speaker 1: and going to Germany. I'm yeah, how poor were y'all?
Speaker 1: I mean, especially with my like like po po yeah wow,
Speaker 1: like I don't even afford to o R yes, oh,
Speaker 1: but I mean and my mother she held it down,
Speaker 1: you know, I always say television was my babysitting, And
Speaker 1: I feel like I was meant to be an actor
Speaker 1: because she was like, hey, when you were a baby,
Speaker 1: if you cried, I wad do was turn on television
Speaker 1: and you were like transfixed. So I think I was
Speaker 1: meant to do it. You before to go to college
Speaker 1: scholarships and grants and loans and paid all that stuff off. Yes, okay, yes,
Speaker 1: what kind of scholarships you kind of talk you. No, No,
Speaker 1: it wasn't that. It wasn't it was that it was
Speaker 1: well Maine. It wasn't until I got to like UCLA.
Speaker 1: They gave me some grant money and some like acting
Speaker 1: like like kind of scholarships for the most part. First
Speaker 1: of all, I started at junior college and back then
Speaker 1: it was like fifty dollars to go to college. Fifty dollars. Yeah,
Speaker 1: junior college was fifty dollars, where like dollars a semester
Speaker 1: and bragging about student loans and you only order twenty
Speaker 1: fifty dollars by the time I was at UCLA for
Speaker 1: like two years, and I racked up in two years,
Speaker 1: I racked up like twelve thirteen thousand dollars. Wow. So
Speaker 1: with your dad in your life, growing up or not really,
Speaker 1: I mean honest, like I would see him occasion because
Speaker 1: he was still in Chicago, and so I would take
Speaker 1: some summers and and go out and see him. And
Speaker 1: we had this kind of not really involved relationship from
Speaker 1: most of my life. But then, um, I really reached
Speaker 1: out to him, like probably a year before he passed
Speaker 1: and just a couple of years before you fast and
Speaker 1: just said, luck man, this is not cool. And thankfully
Speaker 1: he like he uh took him about a year to
Speaker 1: do it, but he stepped up and called me out
Speaker 1: of the blue and we just over the phone. We
Speaker 1: had this just hash and everything out. He took like
Speaker 1: responsibility for not being there, and it just it lifted
Speaker 1: everything right because we just had this cathartic moment. And
Speaker 1: then from that point on he was he was my dog.
Speaker 1: I knew that feeling I had. I got that this
Speaker 1: summer because I had some issues with my father basically
Speaker 1: about you know, when he divorced my mom and you
Speaker 1: know moved on with another family. Oh yeah, that same story.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was always there for me, but I
Speaker 1: had that conversation with him this summer, Like that was
Speaker 1: always on my heart and my mind, Like you know
Speaker 1: I had I felt a way about that. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: understand that lifting feeling you probably, yeah, you know, I
Speaker 1: mean because it was always there, and I guess when
Speaker 1: I was growing up, I just didn't want to just
Speaker 1: bring it up, like, Yo, how come you ain't calling me?
Speaker 1: And then finally you, I guess you reach a certain
Speaker 1: point of adulthood where for me it was just kind
Speaker 1: of like, okay, either I gotta say this and this
Speaker 1: relationship's gotta change. Oh, I'm cool with it just keeping
Speaker 1: it moving and not have a relationship. So I had
Speaker 1: to get to that place and I just kind of
Speaker 1: put it all out there and it took him a while,
Speaker 1: but he came. He stepped up. The crazy thing is,
Speaker 1: no matter how old you get, you still had that
Speaker 1: fear of your father. Absolutely. Yeah, like you still like
Speaker 1: you want to have a conversation, but you just it's
Speaker 1: not as easier just packing up the phone like hey man, Papa,
Speaker 1: but you can't. Yeah yeah, I mean, you just almost
Speaker 1: got to get to the point of your backs against
Speaker 1: the wall, and he just like, I can't do this anymore. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, thankfully we did it. Once you make a
Speaker 1: transition from the seat to like TV it was just
Speaker 1: weird smooth transition. It was right into college. Man, I
Speaker 1: had like two quarters left to school, and I was
Speaker 1: trying to figure out howctually house gonna pay for it.
Speaker 1: I went through my first year at UCLA, and like
Speaker 1: I said, they gave me some award money and I
Speaker 1: spent all of it over the summer and didn't work
Speaker 1: a job. So the next quarter was about to start
Speaker 1: and I was like, I didn't have enough money. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I only got two quarters left and I may not
Speaker 1: even finish. And this connection that I had, like they
Speaker 1: called me out of the blue and said, hey, you
Speaker 1: got an audition, come pick up the stuff tomorrow. It
Speaker 1: wound up being this re occurring on Beverly Hills nine
Speaker 1: two one, and then they got me the job. They
Speaker 1: got me an agent. The very next audition that my
Speaker 1: agent actually sent me out on was living single and
Speaker 1: then I got that job. He was a living single. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: that's what Scooter boy, I do remember that. Wow, Wow,
Speaker 1: you've been around brow Yeah, ninety ninety three, ninety four.
Speaker 1: What was your first gig? That was? That was Beverly
Speaker 1: Hills and Hill and they went up airing around the
Speaker 1: same time, so they were technically like he remember now,
Speaker 1: I used to watching nine two one though, so real
Speaker 1: Toll did not. Yeah, this was tory spelling, Brian Austin Greg. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was the college years. Yeah, and then once they
Speaker 1: got to college. I don't remember that. I was a
Speaker 1: de Sean Hardell. I was like this college basketball player
Speaker 1: and Brandon was supposed to to me, and I just
Speaker 1: was like, no, man, just stereotype. He was the basketball
Speaker 1: player and needed help in the education. It was stereotype,
Speaker 1: matter of fact, not even that like, it was a
Speaker 1: stereotype where I wanted he was supposed to to me,
Speaker 1: and I was just like, man, just go take my
Speaker 1: test for me. Oh so he was a super black.
Speaker 1: He was a black job right, all right? We got
Speaker 1: more with Chruss Williams from Black Lightning when we come back.
Speaker 1: Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Angela, yee,
Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We have
Speaker 1: Chriss Williams from Black Lightning in the building, Charlemagne. But
Speaker 1: how to roll a Black Lightning happened? You know? I
Speaker 1: saw that they were auditioning, and I wanted, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: it's been a top of my list Player, superhero Man.
Speaker 1: Uh thankfully. Yeah. I just like because I would have
Speaker 1: never thunk it because as a kid, we didn't see it,
Speaker 1: but we didn't sunk money. I like, funk I've never
Speaker 1: heard you use that word in my life. We got
Speaker 1: at being in the room all of sudden, you want
Speaker 1: to say your words like funk o. Yes, I've never funking, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: um no. I mean it's just you know, I said,
Speaker 1: I grew up watching these things and they started making
Speaker 1: movies and television. The technology is now where you could
Speaker 1: see like the special effects. So I was like, man,
Speaker 1: I want to do this. And I auditioned for Luke
Speaker 1: Cage way back in the day. It didn't get it
Speaker 1: to play Luke. Yeah. Yeah, I don't see you as
Speaker 1: a little Cage. Yeah well I thought at the time,
Speaker 1: But now I'm happy that that didn't happen because I'd
Speaker 1: rather play black Lights. But yeah, I got the audition,
Speaker 1: and I just it actually happened pretty easy. Like from
Speaker 1: what I was told, they like they were always thinking
Speaker 1: of me. Why do you think it's such a hunger
Speaker 1: for black superheroes? Man, there's a hunger for diversity, and
Speaker 1: I think it's honestly, it's because of the dude we
Speaker 1: got in the White House. I think everybody like and
Speaker 1: things that are going on in the world. I always
Speaker 1: look at it, like we thought. I always kind of
Speaker 1: liking it to roaches and we thought, you know, prior
Speaker 1: to this, we thought that we had like squashed a
Speaker 1: lot of roaches. And then with him coming in and
Speaker 1: it kind of turned on the lights and we looked
Speaker 1: around and whoa, we got a lot more roaches than
Speaker 1: we thought. And so I think that made artists rise
Speaker 1: up and want to like, you know, swing the pendulum
Speaker 1: the other way and wait, so we're getting a lot
Speaker 1: more diversity. You're just funny you say that, because I
Speaker 1: was thinking about this this weekend. We have to make
Speaker 1: sure that we're not reacting to them the way they
Speaker 1: reacted to Obama. And then like like like there was
Speaker 1: a lot of irrashal I'm not gonna say irrational, but
Speaker 1: there was a lot of the way we're acting towards
Speaker 1: Trump is the way that inside was acted towards Obama. Right, Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: and well I think it's always got to be rooted
Speaker 1: in action, you know what I mean. And and uh,
Speaker 1: I don't like getting back and forth with the name
Speaker 1: calling and uh or just the generalization of like republican Democrat.
Speaker 1: It can't be that like bad, evil, racist people are
Speaker 1: only Republicans. Like it's it's on both sides and not
Speaker 1: even crime Bill came from Democrats. Right, you gotta call it,
Speaker 1: you gotta call president as they like to say. Okay, right,
Speaker 1: I think we just gotta call action to action. So
Speaker 1: you see something that's wrong, I don't care if you're
Speaker 1: a Democrat, I don't care if you're Republican. Wrong is wrong.
Speaker 1: I mean Trump his actions are very clear. How is
Speaker 1: that being a father? Because you got three kids and
Speaker 1: how are you raising them kids? I mean, I'm just
Speaker 1: trying to make them, you know, the best people they
Speaker 1: can possibly be. Like it doesn't necessarily change how I
Speaker 1: raised them, but there it just it does change. Like
Speaker 1: I don't know, I have these thoughts, you know, in
Speaker 1: the car, We're looking at the way the world is,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, was it responsible that I'm bringing kids
Speaker 1: into the into this right now? Because I I mean,
Speaker 1: my wife and I we had this little phrase at times.
Speaker 1: You just see something that's happening, I just like, you
Speaker 1: know what I want to get off? Can we stop
Speaker 1: the train because I want to get off. I want
Speaker 1: to get off this. I want to you know, like
Speaker 1: I just want out all this. Are you kids? Yes? Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, A white wife. Yeah, Italian I Tali. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I tell you, I te How was that going into
Speaker 1: an Italian home? At first? It was scary? Uh, it
Speaker 1: was scary. I mean it would be honest. I mean well,
Speaker 1: I just thought, like, I mean, I knew she had
Speaker 1: a big Italian family. I'm like, Okay, one of y'all
Speaker 1: gotta be racist, like one of y'all like like how
Speaker 1: would you look? And just your number? Your number? One
Speaker 1: of y'all gotta hate me, you know, even just meeting
Speaker 1: their parents. I mean, I think it's just like I
Speaker 1: grew up primary in California and southern California, and I
Speaker 1: just I'm always cautious. So the minute I leave my neighborhood,
Speaker 1: I'm expecting trouble. Right. I was scared. I was worried.
Speaker 1: And thankfully they like they got they squashed all that.
Speaker 1: Like my in laws are amazing. How is your family?
Speaker 1: Because I know that you know, back in those days,
Speaker 1: you know, Mama only wanted to see a black woman
Speaker 1: with it with a black man. My mom was cool,
Speaker 1: but I mean I got it. I guess I caught
Speaker 1: it from her my mother, like growing up watching you know,
Speaker 1: like I said, my mother. My parents divorced so when
Speaker 1: I was a baby, so I don't have memories of
Speaker 1: them being married. So my mother was single. She never remarried,
Speaker 1: but she was dating. And my mother dated everyone, And
Speaker 1: so I guess I grew up watching like all all
Speaker 1: races coming through the house. You know, she's mad on
Speaker 1: her as a black superhero. Are you aware that white
Speaker 1: women are a black man's kryptonae? What I ever aware
Speaker 1: of that? Yes? Yea? So so what is black lightning
Speaker 1: in the characters? Didn't mean to you? Just like black excellence. Man.
Speaker 1: I mean, the thing that I'm struck with and I'm
Speaker 1: really proud of is that Jefferson Pierce. You know, the
Speaker 1: alter ego is like he's a heroic person even if
Speaker 1: he doesn't have powers. Him and his wife are divorced,
Speaker 1: but he has custody of his daughters. He's raising his daughters.
Speaker 1: He's a principal and a teacher, uh like community leader.
Speaker 1: So it's like all these things and I don't I
Speaker 1: still didn't really come up with any other superhero black
Speaker 1: otherwise whose alter ego is that heroic without powers? Um black,
Speaker 1: he's a king, that's true. Yeah, yeah, I mean but
Speaker 1: most of the time, like you know, he said garbage
Speaker 1: a Superman. I mean, he was just a reporter. There's
Speaker 1: nothing like heroic about that. You know, batmana is a
Speaker 1: rich playboy. The word you know what. You know what
Speaker 1: I hate about Superman now as you say about it,
Speaker 1: more than now we all say white people. They all
Speaker 1: say black people look alike. White people look so much
Speaker 1: like that Superman can just throw some glasses on and
Speaker 1: that I don't even thinking about that. Y'all know, it's
Speaker 1: not real, Like it's it's fake. People write it's like
Speaker 1: like I act like it's real, Like yeah, but I
Speaker 1: see issue thirty five. Why is it important to have
Speaker 1: like black superheroes in this political climate, especially with the
Speaker 1: messages that are in black lightning. When I first thing
Speaker 1: I got, when I got the role, I almost went
Speaker 1: back to being a kid because the first thing I
Speaker 1: thought of was myself as a kid. I was like, man,
Speaker 1: this show was being on, was gonna be on. I
Speaker 1: would circle the calendar. I would be like so hype
Speaker 1: that this show was on, and you know, we never
Speaker 1: had I remember Selim, the creator of the show, he
Speaker 1: was talking about he was a Batman fan growing up
Speaker 1: as a kid, but like when he went off to
Speaker 1: get the Halloween costume, He's like the Batman mask had
Speaker 1: like a mask, but like then the face was white white. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and he just had to just and he would talking
Speaker 1: about like putting gloves on the cover his skin so
Speaker 1: he could like play this hero. Well, that alone is
Speaker 1: ridiculous that we didn't have a superhero that we could
Speaker 1: like emulate for now, for our kids, like to have
Speaker 1: a black superhero, not just one, but like multiple black
Speaker 1: superhero on Black Lightning. You know, my daughters are also
Speaker 1: superhero so it's like we have black female superheroes. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be like our kids, This is gonna
Speaker 1: be their normal that they're gonna you know, I took
Speaker 1: my daughter, I'm playing Black Black Lightning. We went to
Speaker 1: go see Black Panther, and I'm sitting right next to
Speaker 1: you and seeing all these these black women who were
Speaker 1: just like the foundation of the film. Weeks later, I
Speaker 1: take it to go see A Wrinkle in Time, and
Speaker 1: the girl and her are like so much alike and
Speaker 1: it's like, this is gonna be their normal and what
Speaker 1: is that gonna do for their self esteem? But they're
Speaker 1: confidence absolutely just their identity moving forward that we didn't have.
Speaker 1: We had to overcome that. We need more of that though,
Speaker 1: We need more family friendly films like that, because what
Speaker 1: you say makes a lot of sense. I remember I
Speaker 1: took my daughter to see Black Panther and then I
Speaker 1: went to the Wrinkle in Time premiere in La. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it's like she saw those back to back representations. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then that night she met Oprah and Able Duvena.
Speaker 1: So that's a whole nother level of superia representation. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But thank you for joining us, man, Thanks for having
Speaker 1: Chris Williams Black Lightning. Make sure you check it out,
Speaker 1: and we thank you for sharing so much this morning. Man. Oh,
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Thanks for having me, Man, I had.
Speaker 1: It's to Breakfast Club. It's Chriss Williams the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Bring everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to these rumors.
Speaker 1: Let's talk Odell. It's about report is the rumor report?
Speaker 1: Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. All right, now, Odell Beckham,
Speaker 1: that's your guy, right, Envy, Yes, Odell Beckham Junior. Well,
Speaker 1: he gave an interview where he talked about Eli Manning
Speaker 1: and basically kind of blamed him for certain things that
Speaker 1: were going on this season. How's your record for the
Speaker 1: Giant so far? We're in third place, one in four Right,
Speaker 1: all right, here's what Odell Beckham Junior had to say.
Speaker 1: He's not gonna get out the party. He's not you know,
Speaker 1: Eli's not running. Is it amount of time and you can't?
Speaker 1: Can you still do it? Yeah? It's been pretty safe,
Speaker 1: and it's been you know, cool catching the shadow and
Speaker 1: trying to take it to the house. But I'm you know,
Speaker 1: I want to go over the top of somebody. I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm being out schemed. And then I also
Speaker 1: don't have a chance to like do something well, I
Speaker 1: gotta take a slant and go safety. And not to
Speaker 1: say it's not fun, but it's like I want I
Speaker 1: want some easy touchdowns too. I'll watch everybody across the league,
Speaker 1: all the type receievers get the ball the way that
Speaker 1: they you know, should, and if they don't, they say
Speaker 1: something about it. I mean, he may be correct. He's correct.
Speaker 1: It just sounds crazy for a guy that's never wonted
Speaker 1: nothing to be critique in the two time Super Bowl champion. No,
Speaker 1: he's correct. Well, he didn't backpedal. He didn't backpedal after
Speaker 1: this last game on Sunday. And here's what he had
Speaker 1: to say about these statements because he's not taking it back,
Speaker 1: and he doesn't regret saying that actually bought the team
Speaker 1: closer together. I don't regret anything that I said. If
Speaker 1: it took that for us to come together as a
Speaker 1: team like we did today, I could take that. Every
Speaker 1: single time it had been on my heart, and I
Speaker 1: think all the stuff that was built up inside it
Speaker 1: just kind of it came out in the wrong way.
Speaker 1: U and I texted him and I asked if I
Speaker 1: can have a minute just to talk to the team.
Speaker 1: If we're not all on the same page, if it's
Speaker 1: not authentic and real and we can all understand each other,
Speaker 1: then there's gonna always be miscommunication. Yeah, I'm not mad
Speaker 1: at what he said. I don't understand why he had
Speaker 1: to say it publicly. It's a football team, Like, well,
Speaker 1: don't you got locker rooms and stuff for that? Like
Speaker 1: it's not like Eli Manning was out there bashing him public.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he probably did say it in the locker
Speaker 1: room and nothing probably changed. He probably was very frustrated.
Speaker 1: I'm definitely sure. I just thought, when it comes to
Speaker 1: a team sports, I think it should be kept inside.
Speaker 1: But Eli Manning said he hasn't heard anything, and he
Speaker 1: said Odell and I have a great relationship. Our mindset
Speaker 1: will be everybody stay focused on beating Philadelphia. So that
Speaker 1: was his comment after that. All right, Kat Williams, what
Speaker 1: happened that he got arrested. He's Kat Williams. Now, we
Speaker 1: told you he got arrested for allegedly assaulting his driver.
Speaker 1: But he's still in jail in Portland. And apparently he
Speaker 1: was supposed to be in court. He had a scheduled
Speaker 1: court date, but instead the people around him didn't tell
Speaker 1: him about the schedule court date because they wanted him
Speaker 1: to get some shine at the Emmy's. His management team
Speaker 1: didn't tell him that he was due in court in
Speaker 1: atlant at the same time that he was going to
Speaker 1: LA to attend the Emmy's. So I guess he had
Speaker 1: a warrant out as well. So a lot of different
Speaker 1: issues going on here, and this is why it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter how funny you are, how much talent you have,
Speaker 1: if you're always a liability. If you're a career liability,
Speaker 1: this is why you don't get to the next level. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Kat Williams on his bed, he would have went and
Speaker 1: went to court and took care of that business instead
Speaker 1: of going to the award show if he had to.
Speaker 1: All Right, still assaulted to drive it though, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's how we found out about the war and
Speaker 1: he got arrested. He's got a lot going on the
Speaker 1: liability regardless. All right, Now let's discuss Jonah Hill. It
Speaker 1: looks like he might have some type of deal with Adidas.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw his post, but
Speaker 1: he posted a picture and he's Adidas and he says
Speaker 1: something fun coming from me and Adidas. So I'm not
Speaker 1: sure exactly what that means, if he has his own
Speaker 1: Adidas launching, or if he's going to be endorsing them
Speaker 1: or just has the project coming with them. But he
Speaker 1: posted another picture said got my new reading in the
Speaker 1: bathroom waiting to take a bath, and then he put
Speaker 1: at Adida's originals hooked it up. So maybe he's doing something,
Speaker 1: all right, and Antonio Brown this story if you guys
Speaker 1: do have kids, so this will affect you, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: Now he's being sued allegedly what happened is he was
Speaker 1: in a violent rage back in April, and he was
Speaker 1: throwing furniture off the balcony of his fourteenth story apartment building.
Speaker 1: While according to Old fair stir Burg, who is suing
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown, some of those items almost hit and killed
Speaker 1: his twenty two month old son who was walking around
Speaker 1: the pool at the apartment complex. That's when they said
Speaker 1: large objects started to fall from the building many floors
Speaker 1: above them, including two very large vises, an ottoman, and
Speaker 1: other pieces of furniture which actually landed right near the
Speaker 1: toddler and his grandfather. So right now they are suing
Speaker 1: saying that they caused extensive damage and the child was
Speaker 1: terrified and traumatized by that incident and has had night
Speaker 1: terrors as well. He's suing for assault, intentional infliction of
Speaker 1: emotional distress and saying that Antonio Brown acted without regard
Speaker 1: for human life. If this is true. By the way,
Speaker 1: y'all can't be throwing furniture off an apart out of
Speaker 1: a window in the complex of people are walking around
Speaker 1: below you. Yeah, you know, I don't throw nothing out
Speaker 1: of a window where you know people maybe walking down.
Speaker 1: If you're like in a city or someplace where you
Speaker 1: know people could be by the pool or something. You
Speaker 1: don't do that, not at all. Yeah. I don't do
Speaker 1: that period. All right. I'm angela Ye. And that is
Speaker 1: your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Ye. Vote.
