To know 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.120 where you go for breakfast? That's where you go for 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:33.880 breakfast this morning? I have a I have a question 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:38.520 this morning. So this fireworks situation, right, is this happening everywhere? 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.840 Because fourth of July is coming up it was just Juneteenth. 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.480 I saw in New York they actually went to the 0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:48.560 Mayor's house, to Gracie Mansion to protest, just because people 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.239 can't sleep at night because there's so many fireworks. Is 0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:53.760 this something going on across the nation? Let me tell you, 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.760 it's getting so ridiculous here in New York. When I 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:58.760 was using fireworks, Yeah, when I was a kid, you 0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:01.639 couldn't get fireworks. You had to drive to Pennsylvania or 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:05.160 Virginia to buy fireworks. Now they, like I said, they 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:06.760 sell it in the grocery store, they sell it in 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:10.440 the BJ's coscoal. You can get it, damn it anywhere, 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.360 and kids are going crazy with them. They shoot Roman candles. 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.600 I've never heard this many fireworks for so many nights 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:23.040 in a row, all night long. Expensive. No, I mean, 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:24.840 I grew up in I grew up in South Carolina, 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:27.120 so we always shot fireworks. But I have been here. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.000 I've been reading a couple of stories with people complaining 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:33.720 about firework activity all throughout the night. I saw in 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:38.960 Oakland complain. Yeah, we've always always had California, but they 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:42.240 were they were illegal. You weren't supposed to have them. 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:46.960 But you know, a little body I was gun shot. 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:50.000 You heard in Brooklyn stopped. We always as a matter 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:51.960 of fact, somebody on my black growing up, he blew 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.880 his hand off from lighting fireworks on the roof. Yeah, 0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:57.160 we used to get the m eighties from the bodaggas 0:03:57.280 --> 0:03:59.640 or the jumping jacks or the Roman candles, or they 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.240 had the tank that would roll a little bit and 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:05.000 then explode. But yeah, you didn't hear too many people 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.080 that had them. All. We used to as a kid. 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:08.920 We should take the m ads and put them in 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.600 the telephone move and blow up the telephone move and 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.360 get like two dollars in quarters. That was fun, you know, 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.600 I mean, it was stupid stuff, but they banned it. 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:20.160 I used fireworks. The woman who used to molest me 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.559 when I was eight, I used fireworks to make cress stop. 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:24.320 It was a little snap of things that you throw 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:28.560 and they popped. That's not fire works. Yeah, you buy 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.719 them at the fireworks though, the little snaps. Of course, 0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:33.920 that wasn't a damn fireworks. Then you didn't light it 0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:37.280 with Don't tell me what my childhood was like. You 0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:39.120 don't light them with a lighter. Their little fireworks you 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:48.520 throw they pops. Say fireworks though, where you buy the snaps? 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:50.280 Where where do you buy those snaps from? Now? Then 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:52.440 you could buy that like one of the little novelty 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:56.640 shops and dollar stores have them. Yeah, everybody has. I 0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:58.480 never I've never seen him in the novelties to only 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.400 buy them into fireworks then, but I used when she 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:02.400 used to touch on me, I started throwing them at a. 0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:10.160 I guess that's why she stopped. All right, Okay, that's 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:13.760 a little awkward. But now, um, today, Yes, John Legend 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:17.680 will be joining us, John Legend, John two Johns will 0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:23.320 be joining Johns, John Stewart, and John Legend. That's right, John. 0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:27.000 John Legend has an album out right now. John Stewart 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:30.800 has a movie coming out called Irresistible. I thoroughly enjoyed 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:33.960 the movie. Um, I saw, I got some terrible, terrible 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:37.440 reviews I read. I read those yesterday. Oh yeah, it 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.760 did I read those yesterday? We see. That's one of 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:41.440 the reason I don't like read reviews or listen to 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:44.799 other people's opinions before I watched something before I consume something, 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:47.480 because I watched it just on the script when they 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:48.920 sent it for us to watch. Because he was coming 0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:52.560 to do the conversation and I thought it was greatly Yeah, 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:55.440 I enjoyed it. I wouldn't thought they got terrible reviews. 0:05:56.480 --> 0:05:59.160 Horrible they killed it. Wow. All right, well, let's get 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:02.440 the show crack in front page news. What we're talking about, Well, 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.360 maybe you're gonna be ready for some baseball soon. It 0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:07.080 didn't look like it was coming back, but now it 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:09.640 looks like Major League Baseball is really trying to start 0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:12.200 July twenty fourth. All right, we'll get into that next. 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:16.920 Keeping lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, DJ Envy Angela, Yee, Charlomagne, 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.000 the guy we all the Breakfast Club. Let's get in 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:24.240 some front page news when we're starting with ye, well, 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:26.720 let's start. We're in Major League Baseball might be coming 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:29.600 back around July twenty fourth, and they're targeting a sixty 0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:32.440 games season. But first any players to sign off on 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:34.880 a health and safety protocol and to pledge to arrive 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:37.920 at home stadiums by July first in order to prepare 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:40.960 for the season. So we'll see, it's been three months 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.720 of negotiations and it still hasn't been worked out. I 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:47.200 knew that immediately. Yesterday. I took my son fishing yesterday 0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:50.520 and as we were going fishing. I looked on a 0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:53.400 baseball field and they're playing a game. The little league 0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:55.799 actually playing a game. So when I seen little league 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:58.920 playing and like, these are kids playing, I'm like, oh, 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:01.240 major League Baseball definite coming back. They allowing these kids 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.040 in these different states to play, They're gonna bring major 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:04.760 League Baseball back. That's not what it is. They've been 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:06.920 trying to negotiate. But it all has to do with 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:10.600 the finances of it also, so you know, they're trying 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:13.120 to pack in as many games as they can, and 0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:16.160 there's a Yeah, that's what the real issue is. It's 0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:19.760 not that they can't play. Oh, so they don't care 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:23.000 about the same COVID. They care just about the money. Well, 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:25.720 I'm sure they care about that also, but yeah, of 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.480 course they care about that. Also, they gotta care about COVID. 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:30.960 I'm sure that's the only reason that it's a delay 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.640 and they're having the kind of I guess shortness season 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.280 that they're having. I'm sure it's because of COVID. But 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.120 but but people are not gonna make the same noise 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:41.960 about the MLB as they did about the NBA. And 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:44.920 I don't find the MLB as a distraction and then 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:46.600 they say that about the NBA. The NBA can't come 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:48.360 back and they would be a distraction. And everything that's 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:49.840 going on right now, you don't have the same energy 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:53.160 from Major League Baseball. Maybe once they announced a real plan, 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:57.440 we'll see, but yeah, it doesn't look it doesn't look 0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:01.720 that way. Now, let's talk about what's happening with Donald Trump. 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:05.200 He is focusing on restricting immigration into the United States. 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:08.680 So he as you know, they have extended DOCCA, and 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.280 he said over the weekend he intends to refile paperwork 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.960 to end DOCCA, that's the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:18.880 after the Supreme Court rejected his first attempt to do so. Now, 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.560 his reasoning for that is because he wants to make 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:24.840 sure that the economy can recover and that people who 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:30.080 are US citizens can actually get these jobs. And Amazon, Google, Twitter, 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:32.760 and other tech companies are speaking out against Donald Trump's 0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:35.960 freeze on immigrant work visas. So the company said they 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.600 will the company said it will make American firms less 0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:42.240 competitive and less diverse, as he has extended that freeze 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:47.319 on these work visas. So the tech industry does rely 0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.360 very heavily on the visa program and other work visas 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:52.599 to recruit employees from outside of the United States, and 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:56.360 that's in particular for technical facing jobs. And so they're 0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.600 saying it's now an unbelievably bad policy that will undermine 0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:06.800 a merror because economic recovery and its competitiveness. If you 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:10.839 guys pay attention to this whole immigration situation. Now, this 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:15.920 NYPD shake Shack poisoning, whole scandal they said was not 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:17.440 what it was made out to be. If you guys 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:20.280 remember three cops went to shake Shack and they said 0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:23.160 that they were poisoned, right, But now there's a full 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.319 picture of what really happened because they said it tasted 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.400 like bleach, so they threw it out. So it's saying 0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:29.360 it's impossible for them to have known that it was 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:32.080 actually drinks that were made for police officers. Their drinks 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:33.880 were waiting for them when they arrived at shake Shack 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.120 because they actually placed an order using the mobile apps, 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:38.880 so you have no idea who's placing this order. They 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.160 purchased three shakes across two separate orders, and the workers 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:43.760 couldn't have known it was cops that were doing it 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:46.079 because it wasn't done in person. They couldn't have done 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:48.800 anything to the drinks after the officers arrived, because the 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:51.839 drinks were already packaged and waiting for pickup. So what 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:53.800 ends up happening is, you know, how they clean out 0:09:53.840 --> 0:09:56.520 the machines, and so when they clean out the machines, 0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.160 they have this thing called the residual milkstone remover. It's 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:02.520 a tip acidic solution that they used to combat build 0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:04.320 up in dairy equipment. So maybe there might have been 0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:06.480 a little bit with that. They tasted of that in 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:08.840 their drinks, but it wasn't what it was made out 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.600 to be, Like some officers were being poisoned and they 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:13.960 don't know why this whole thing was blown out of proportion. 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:16.880 So they lied because it couldn't have been bleaching if 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:18.840 they if they called ahead, and there's no way they 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:20.760 would have known that they were police officers that were 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.800 just like, it's just a random over each person just 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.719 ordering food. Correct. Yeah, And I don't think it was 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.920 the officers that lie because it did have a taste 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:29.960 to it, and that's probably what the taste came from. 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.360 But they said when they went back to work, I 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.679 guess for some reason, you know, they made a huge 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:39.280 deal out of it. Their higher ups and made it 0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:42.439 a big deal. The Police Benevolent President Association president made 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:45.079 a show of visiting the hospital and said that the 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:47.800 police officers came under attack from a toxic substance that 0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:50.679 was believed to be bleach. That whole story just ended 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:52.679 up spreading, and so I don't think it was the 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.959 actual police officers that made it a big deal. Well, 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:59.800 just to play white Devil's advocate, what if they frequent 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:03.760 this shake shock often and the workers their new their name. 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:08.680 That's a possibility. Yeah, but it was, but there wasn't 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:10.880 actually bleacher.

I 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:06.319 wasn't trying. I wasn't trying to I wasn't trying to 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:08.600 debate her. I don't think. I just get very concerned 0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:10.679 when people trying to roll back women's rights and a 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:14.120 woman's right to choose. I think that's concerning. It's concerning. 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:16.480 But she was coming with some she was coming with me. 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:18.720 I'm gonna be real, y'all listening back to the interview, 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.640 Yeah I did. I watched it. I watched it yesterday. Yeah, 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:27.480 she cooked, she could. She definitely cooked the room. I 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:29.920 enjoyed it. I th I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm not. 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.120 I mean, sometimes sometimes you just can't argue people. You 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.280 just gotta let people say this side. I mean it is, 0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:39.319 why were you arguing like? I wasn't arguing though, I 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:42.080 wasn't arguing. I I think I think as a woman 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.040 is very concerning to me for people to put out 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:46.839 this false and narrative like if you're a pro choice, 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.200 that means you're walking around killing babies. I don't like that. Yeah, 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:53.080 it was a lot of different. I didn't. I didn't. 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:55.640 I didn't agree with that part. Yeah it was. And 0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:59.440 I also don't agree that if your child is trans 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.800 that means you're encouraging to have sex or something like 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:05.760 it's crazy to me what she said with that, like 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:09.680 the whole the LGBT community, all those letters, the first 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:12.920 three letters are sexually on it, or say you know 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:16.200 what says or like those. I mean, let's just be real. Yeah, 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:18.960 but I think when the kids come to you and says, look, 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:21.240 i'm a i'm a boy or i'm a girl, doesn't 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:23.360 mean I want to have sex with whatever. It just 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.560 means this is what I identify as a gender as well. Wait, man, 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:28.720 appreciate you all.

But let's talk about Bubba Wallace. 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:22.200 He's the only black driver in NASCAR's Top series and 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:26.679 he found a noose in his team's garage. All right, 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.440 who wow? All right, we'll get to that next keeping 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:35.439 lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:39.520 Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:41.960 are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's 0:18:42.040 --> 0:18:46.560 talk Bubbo Wallace. This is the rumor report with Angela 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:54.240 year Breakfast Club. Well, Bubba Wallace, who was the only 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:57.920 black driver in NASCAR's Top series, did confirm that on 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:01.119 Sunday there was a new was found in his team's 0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:05.360 garage stall at Talladega Superspeedway. And now they are investigating. 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:08.200 The news was found by a member of Bubba Wallace's team, 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:12.200 and it was just hours after somebody flew a Confederate 0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:15.920 flag over the track to protest NASCAR banning the Confederate 0:19:15.960 --> 0:19:19.640 flag at all events. So they're trying to figure out 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:21.919 who did this. Now NASCAR released a statement, we are 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:24.920 angry and outraised and cannot stay strongly enough how seriously 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:28.160 we take this heynous act. Yeah, that is totally fall. 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:31.040 I heard Jesse Smolette was trending yesterday because people will 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:33.920 believe and maybe he did it himself, but that's crazy. 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:36.680 You can't go to work without seeing that they banned 0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:38.800 the flag. People still come out to Hija Jaha with 0:19:38.880 --> 0:19:40.920 the flags and trying to put it on their cause. 0:19:41.040 --> 0:19:43.920 It's just so disrespectful man. Positively, Yeah, they were trying 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:47.040 to do all these like truck drivers rolling past with 0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:50.840 the Confederate flag. It was like a protest parade with 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:52.560 a lot of the people. They were people setting up 0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:54.760 camp across the street, and they were also displaying the 0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:57.720 Confederate flag. That's how much step flag means to them. 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:01.199 And there were some Trump flags alongside the Confederate flags 0:20:01.240 --> 0:20:04.840 as well. All right. In addition to that, Bubba wile 0:20:04.880 --> 0:20:08.040 this did Finnis fourteenth yesterday, drivers did rally behind him. 0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:10.680 It was a very emotional scene. So listen to this. 0:20:11.240 --> 0:20:14.000 It's been tough, it's been it's been hell. Earlier I 0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:16.800 would say hell, it's just been hectic, you know, carrying 0:20:16.840 --> 0:20:19.159 its weight and carrying his burden. I wouldn't really say 0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:20.920 burden either. I'm proud to stand where I'm at and 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:23.080 carry a new face. Look at this first time right 0:20:23.119 --> 0:20:27.200 here from Atlanta. The sport is changing. Sorry, I'm not 0:20:27.280 --> 0:20:29.879 wearing my mask, but I wanted to show whoever it was, 0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:33.800 You're not gonna take away my smile and I'm gonna 0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:36.119 keep on going. The pre rate steal was probably one 0:20:36.119 --> 0:20:37.720 of the hardest things I've ever had to witness in 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.879 my life. From all the supporters, from drivers, from crew members, 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:45.280 everybody here the badass fan base, thank you guys for 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:48.439 coming out here. Yeah, definitely positive eyes for that brother man. 0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:49.960 He's going through a lot, and I'm glad that they're 0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:53.639 rallying behind him. Yeah. Yeah, most people are so, and 0:20:53.720 --> 0:20:55.760 I know that's a hurtful time and things to go through. 0:20:55.880 --> 0:20:58.520 So you know, I'm glad that NASCAR is doing the 0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:01.720 right thing though, at least right all right, little baby. 0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:05.320 He's upset that Walmart has been selling fake gold chains 0:21:06.000 --> 0:21:08.280 with his logo on it, four pockets full of jewelry, 0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:10.720 and he's not happy at all. He called him out 0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:13.760 on Twitter. He said, Walmart got me ffed up. Did 0:21:13.840 --> 0:21:16.239 y'all see these bootleg chains? I did see him. I Mean, 0:21:16.440 --> 0:21:18.200 the good thing about it is that's his logo, so 0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:20.600 he could probably sue if it's you know, his and 0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:22.680 his trademark. But remember we used to see that all 0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:24.159 the time. I've never seen in a Walmart, but we 0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:25.520 always used to see it in the mall where it 0:21:25.640 --> 0:21:28.080 was cash money. I've seen the Rockefeller stuff. I've seen 0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:31.879 Masterpiece ice cream trunk. There's been a lot of jewelry 0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:35.000 in the mall though. Yeah, absolutely, we might have some 0:21:35.119 --> 0:21:40.320 of those chains, right, No, that mean ninety nine, all right. 0:21:40.400 --> 0:21:42.840 Carl Crawford is being sued for one million dollars by 0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:45.240 the mother of the child who drowned at his home. 0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:47.800 We told you about this drowning incident. It took place 0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:50.560 last month. It was a small gathering and it was 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:52.600 a five year old boy and an adult woman who 0:21:52.680 --> 0:21:54.600 died when the little boy fell into the pool. She 0:21:54.720 --> 0:21:57.640 actually dove in to try to save the five year old, 0:21:57.920 --> 0:22:01.080 and they both later died at a nearby hospital. Now, 0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:04.240 the mom, leb on Hersey, is saying that Carl Crawford 0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.280 is solely responsible for the incident. She says her five 0:22:07.359 --> 0:22:10.440 year old son, who suffered from drowning, wasn't properly protected, 0:22:10.760 --> 0:22:13.159 and that this pool had no fencing, no alarm system, 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:16.439 and so she's holding him responsible. She went to one 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:19.119 million dollars in her lawsuit against him. Yeah, you know, 0:22:19.200 --> 0:22:23.160 the defensing only secures it if around the whole yard. 0:22:23.240 --> 0:22:25.359 But if you're out in the barbecue, having a you know, 0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:27.720 having a barbecue by the pool, a pool is usually open. 0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:29.720 I do know in Florida, which I thought was dope, 0:22:29.720 --> 0:22:32.280 they have these alarms that when you go outside to 0:22:32.359 --> 0:22:34.640 the pool, the alarm goes off like crazy, which I'm 0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:36.639 going to install in my house or my kids. Not 0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:39.480 a swim But he has insurance. I'm sure it's insurance 0:22:39.480 --> 0:22:40.840 to be able to take care of it. But you know, 0:22:40.920 --> 0:22:43.920 it's a sad situation. It's definitely a sad situation. I 0:22:43.960 --> 0:22:45.639 don't know how do you claim whose fault it was? 0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:47.520 You know what I mean? Because when I'm out, I 0:22:47.560 --> 0:22:49.840 guess if it's on your property, I don't know, but 0:22:49.960 --> 0:22:52.360 it's in my kids my responsibility though, Like if I'm 0:22:52.400 --> 0:22:54.560 out at a pool party, I'm watching my kids to 0:22:54.600 --> 0:22:56.480 make sure my kids are safe. So I don't know 0:22:56.560 --> 0:22:59.520 who's you know, responsibility legally, I don't know how this 0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.320 works legally. I don't know if you know this happening 0:23:02.320 --> 0:23:04.160 on your property, Just like if you slip and falling 0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:07.680 someone's property or something happens to you, you can sue, right, Yeah, 0:23:07.720 --> 0:23:09.880 that's if you slip and fall. But if my child, 0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:12.720 you know, goes into the pool or jumps into the pool, 0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:15.360 falls into the pool. Shit, As a parent, you keep 0:23:15.359 --> 0:23:17.080 an eye on your kids to make sure you know 0:23:17.119 --> 0:23:19.720 what they're at at any given moment. I'm just asking. 0:23:19.800 --> 0:23:22.120 I honestly don't know, and I would love to know. Yeah, 0:23:22.119 --> 0:23:23.639 I mean, I don't know. They might. She's saying that 0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:26.240 it was unsafe because there was no way for if 0:23:26.280 --> 0:23:28.600 you're at someone's house and a child could just fall 0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:31.280 into the pool. I don't know, but I guess we'll 0:23:31.320 --> 0:23:33.560 see what happens. All right, Well, I man de la yee. 0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:36.080 That's your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss ye. 0:23:36.200 --> 0:23:37.880 Now when we come back front page news, what we're 0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:40.320 talking about, Yes, we we're talking about Dak Prescott and 0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:42.919 his deal that he just signed with the Cowboys. All right, 0:23:42.960 --> 0:23:45.160 we'll get into that next. Keeping lock this to Breakfast Cloud, 0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:48.800 Go morning, vj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy, we 0:23:48.880 --> 0:23:51.720 all the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page 0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:57.320 news where we're starting you well, Dak Prescott has officially 0:23:57.400 --> 0:24:00.800 signed his thirty well received his alty one point four 0:24:00.920 --> 0:24:04.919 million exclusive franchise ten there from the Dallas Cowboys. They 0:24:04.960 --> 0:24:07.880 have until July fifteenth to work out a long term deal, 0:24:07.960 --> 0:24:12.080 otherwise one cannot be done until after this season. So 0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:14.240 the good news is, I guess he'll be back for 0:24:14.320 --> 0:24:16.680 this season and he does want to stay. Is he 0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:20.200 worth the money having? I mean, I don't know what 0:24:20.359 --> 0:24:22.200 his deal is. I think I saw something yesterday that 0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:25.080 he signed a thirty one point five million dollar franchise 0:24:25.119 --> 0:24:27.480 tag for the Cowboys, But I don't know how long 0:24:27.560 --> 0:24:29.160 it is. I don't know if that's where. I don't 0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:33.080 know what that is. It's not a long term. Yeah, 0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:35.080 it's not a long term deal. So they're saying that 0:24:35.240 --> 0:24:36.960 he will be one of the highest paid players in 0:24:37.000 --> 0:24:39.840 the NFL, and then they said next season that could 0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:42.960 increase by a mandatory twenty percent to thirty seven point 0:24:43.040 --> 0:24:46.040 seven million with a flat or lower cap in twenty 0:24:46.119 --> 0:24:49.000 twenty one. So they do want to do a long 0:24:49.119 --> 0:24:51.840 term deal before July fifteenth, But if they wait till 0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:57.840 after that, then you can't do it till after the season. Okay, Okay, 0:24:57.880 --> 0:24:59.399 got it? I hope we gets all the money that 0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:05.240 he's worth. Runnun all right. Rhode Island. Now, I didn't 0:25:05.280 --> 0:25:07.200 know about this, but they saying Rhode Island might change 0:25:07.200 --> 0:25:10.760 its official state name because of slavery connotations. I didn't know. 0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:13.399 Rhode Island's full name is the State of Rhode Island 0:25:13.480 --> 0:25:17.200 and Providence Plantations. So right now they're going to change 0:25:17.240 --> 0:25:19.720 the name to just Rhode Island instead of all that. 0:25:19.800 --> 0:25:24.680 I never heard anybody call it that, but makes sense, right, 0:25:25.119 --> 0:25:27.720 all right now. Eight corrections officers at the Ramsay County, 0:25:27.720 --> 0:25:32.200 Minnesota jail where Derek Chauvin is being held in Minneapolis 0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:35.000 said they were briefly barred from the floor where he 0:25:35.119 --> 0:25:36.920 was being held the day that he was booked into 0:25:36.960 --> 0:25:40.520 the jail because they're black, according to the discrimination charges 0:25:40.560 --> 0:25:43.640 that have been filed with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights. 0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:46.359 So they said when Chavin was charged with murder in 0:25:46.440 --> 0:25:48.399 the death of George Floyd, they were told to report 0:25:48.440 --> 0:25:51.159 to the third floor of the jail. They said that 0:25:51.480 --> 0:25:53.840 the facilities employees of color were all on that floor. 0:25:53.920 --> 0:25:56.520 They had all been segregated from the fifth floor, which 0:25:56.600 --> 0:25:59.080 is where Chavin was to be held. So they said 0:25:59.119 --> 0:26:02.160 they believed that those action towards discriminatory because they openly 0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:05.200 singled out and segregated officers of color because of their 0:26:05.280 --> 0:26:08.480 skin color. Now, according to the jail official, what he's 0:26:08.520 --> 0:26:11.359 saying is that he said, recognizing that the murder of 0:26:11.400 --> 0:26:15.359 George Floyd was likely to create particularly acute racialized trauma, 0:26:15.400 --> 0:26:17.800 I felt I had an immediate duty to protect and 0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:20.600 support employees who may have been traumatized and may have 0:26:20.720 --> 0:26:23.159 heightened ongoing trauma by having to deal with Shavin. Out 0:26:23.200 --> 0:26:25.680 of care and concern and without the comfort of time, 0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:28.080 I made the decision to limit exposure to employees of 0:26:28.160 --> 0:26:31.800 color to a murder suspect who could potentially aggravate those feelings. 0:26:33.520 --> 0:26:37.359 He said. He reversed that decision within the hour, And 0:26:37.440 --> 0:26:39.679 it doesn't ever happen the other way around them. Right 0:26:39.720 --> 0:26:43.240 when they arrest somebody who's black, they're not like, Okay, 0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:45.440 we're not going to have any white officers. I've never 0:26:45.520 --> 0:26:47.600 heard of that before with them, So I don't see 0:26:47.600 --> 0:26:49.320 why it should happen the other way, And why shouldn't 0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:52.240 they be able to do their job as police officers 0:26:52.800 --> 0:26:55.600 and handle the situation just because of the color of 0:26:55.680 --> 0:26:58.240 their skin. Absolutely yeah. If you know, if you're not 0:26:58.280 --> 0:27:01.359 gonna worry about potential prejud it's our potential bias when 0:27:01.400 --> 0:27:03.679 it comes to you know, people that you arrested are 0:27:03.720 --> 0:27:05.800 black and white officers, and the same energy should be 0:27:05.800 --> 0:27:09.280 applied for the black officers as well. Okay, well, right 0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:13.520 now those officers are seeking compensation. Yeah, the black officers 0:27:13.560 --> 0:27:16.880 have some prejudice and some bias towards the white cop 0:27:16.960 --> 0:27:20.560 Derek shoving. They should okay, they should feel that way. 0:27:20.640 --> 0:27:22.600 Y'all don't have no reason to be prejudice and biased 0:27:22.600 --> 0:27:26.400 towards us other than the color of our skin. All right, 0:27:26.520 --> 0:27:28.560 well I am Angela. Yeah, and that is your front 0:27:28.600 --> 0:27:31.200 page news. All right, thank you. I want to I 0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:34.639 want to salute Kentucky too. Man. They got primary elections today, 0:27:34.960 --> 0:27:37.639 Senate primary elections. We all know that less than a 0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:40.560 few less than uh, they have less than two hundred 0:27:40.560 --> 0:27:43.199 polling places to vote because Mitch McConnell, the state senator, 0:27:43.280 --> 0:27:46.480 has repeatedly refused to vote on bills to improve access 0:27:46.560 --> 0:27:49.040 to the ballot. So, you know, everyone exercising their right 0:27:49.119 --> 0:27:52.879 to vote, be patient today. Thug it out, Andy and all, 0:27:53.040 --> 0:27:55.639 and always remember if voting didn't matter, then you know, 0:27:55.800 --> 0:27:57.359 why do they why do they go so hard to 0:27:57.440 --> 0:28:00.520 make it difficult for us to vote? Do it? Thug 0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:02.360 it out and stuck it out in Kentucky today, even 0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:04.359 though they cut the polling places from thirty seven hundred 0:28:04.359 --> 0:28:06.440 to two hundred and one polling place for the state's 0:28:06.440 --> 0:28:09.480 two biggest cities, Louisville and Lexington. Thug it out. Yeah, 0:28:09.520 --> 0:28:11.160 that line gonna be long, but like you said, thug 0:28:11.200 --> 0:28:13.160 it out. Man. Please, if you can't bring extra water, 0:28:13.440 --> 0:28:16.200 please stug it out. All right? When we come back, 0:28:16.480 --> 0:28:19.560 comedian John Stewart will be joining us. Of course. He 0:28:19.720 --> 0:28:23.400 has a new movie coming out called Irresistible, and we'll 0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:25.440 talk to him about that very good film. And I'm 0:28:25.480 --> 0:28:27.320 glad I watched it before I saw the reviews for 0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:30.880 it because I enjoyed it. Okay, all right, well, we'll 0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:32.480 kick it with him when we come back to the movies. 0:28:32.520 --> 0:28:38.480 To Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club forty. Everybody 0:28:38.600 --> 0:28:42.200 is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are 0:28:42.280 --> 0:28:44.520 the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the 0:28:44.640 --> 0:28:50.120 line right now on the zoom we have John Stewart. Welcome. Yeah, Hey, 0:28:50.200 --> 0:28:53.640 what's up, guys? Thanks going. What's happening? Hey, thank you 0:28:53.720 --> 0:28:56.720 for coming. First of all, I want to I really 0:28:56.920 --> 0:29:01.360 enjoyed Irresistible, man, really enjoyed. Thank you. Now breakdown what 0:29:01.480 --> 0:29:05.080 Irresistible is about. How it's about a young boy who's 0:29:05.160 --> 0:29:12.120 left alone over Christmas by his family. Thank you, John. 0:29:12.280 --> 0:29:19.959 That would It's a movie about the current political system 0:29:20.400 --> 0:29:25.520 and the gravitational pull that it exerts, and how far 0:29:25.640 --> 0:29:29.400 away it's drifted from the problems and the facts on 0:29:29.480 --> 0:29:32.880 the ground of the real people that it's purporting to serve. 0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:36.560 And hopefully it's funny and uh and people have a 0:29:36.600 --> 0:29:39.000 good time watching, you know, right out of the gate. 0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:41.240 Not to give too much away, but you know, these 0:29:41.280 --> 0:29:44.520 political strategists, they admit their lying to us, yet the 0:29:44.600 --> 0:29:49.320 American public still listens. Why. I think ultimately what they've 0:29:49.520 --> 0:29:55.800 learned is noise is an effective strategy to blunt any 0:29:56.000 --> 0:29:59.480 change of the status quo. And one of the best 0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:05.080 kind of noisemakers is to flood the zone with non 0:30:05.240 --> 0:30:09.280 fact and lies and spin to make it much more 0:30:09.320 --> 0:30:13.520 difficult for people to be able to discern what's real 0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:16.120 and what's not. Because here's the other thing. We're busy 0:30:16.640 --> 0:30:18.240 and they count on that it's sort of like you 0:30:18.320 --> 0:30:20.720 ever look at your credit card statement and they send 0:30:20.760 --> 0:30:23.640 you that pamphlet that explains to you, like the rules. 0:30:24.680 --> 0:30:28.080 You cannot figure out what it is they're trying to 0:30:28.160 --> 0:30:31.120 tell you about your credit card rate, And it's done 0:30:31.200 --> 0:30:34.920 on purpose. They don't want you to know the ins 0:30:34.960 --> 0:30:39.160 and outs. They don't because that means you'll hold them accountable. 0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:41.880 You know, there's a scene in the movie when I'm 0:30:41.920 --> 0:30:43.760 not gonna give it away, but Colonel Jack is basically 0:30:43.840 --> 0:30:47.360 saying that money is the problem in regards the politics. 0:30:47.920 --> 0:30:51.440 How can that system that will be dismantled? So I 0:30:51.640 --> 0:30:54.280 think that's what we've tried. You know, there was McCain, 0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:57.320 Fondal and campaign campaign finance reforms. But I think it's 0:30:57.320 --> 0:31:00.280 always nibbling at maybe the edge of it, you know, 0:31:00.400 --> 0:31:02.239 because when you have money in a system, I think 0:31:02.280 --> 0:31:06.000 we all know that system is going to protect itself. 0:31:06.360 --> 0:31:10.520 Systems don't generally dismantle their own profit. So what happens 0:31:10.680 --> 0:31:14.560 is elections now become permanent, and so you've got billions 0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:18.560 and billions of dollars flowing into this thing, and everybody 0:31:18.600 --> 0:31:21.080 in that system is getting a case. But there out 0:31:21.120 --> 0:31:24.320 the other day, Joe Biden raised eighty million dollars. I 0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:27.080 think Trump raised seventy eight million dollars in a month. 0:31:27.560 --> 0:31:30.160 And that's not even the half of the kind of 0:31:30.200 --> 0:31:32.720 money that's flowing through this thing. And by the way, 0:31:32.960 --> 0:31:36.320 that's the least of the money. The real money is 0:31:36.400 --> 0:31:39.800 the dark money that's flowing in from corporations and billionaires 0:31:39.960 --> 0:31:43.520 to influence that system. Also, in the movie, you show 0:31:43.560 --> 0:31:47.200 how Democrats don't know how to talk the regular everyday people. 0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:50.479 Why can't Democrats get their messaging right? So the Publican 0:31:50.520 --> 0:31:53.680 Party has an advantage in that they're more homogeneous. They're 0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:58.080 just talking to one group. The Democrat Democratic Party is 0:31:58.120 --> 0:32:00.560 really a coalition of interest. And you'll see no matter 0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:04.479 where you go, you've got people. You've got DOCTA standing 0:32:04.560 --> 0:32:08.560 next to BLM, standing next to Free Palestine, standing next 0:32:08.600 --> 0:32:11.800 to Behalf, standing next to five guys going legalized park 0:32:12.000 --> 0:32:16.400 like it's a mishmash. And so there is no real 0:32:17.200 --> 0:32:21.480 singular common language for the Democratic Party to speak to 0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:25.200 each other, and certainly not to reach across and speak 0:32:25.320 --> 0:32:29.640 to you know, a Republican party that's become really entrenched 0:32:30.000 --> 0:32:33.320 in that identity. Yeah, Republicans will go for their candidate 0:32:33.440 --> 0:32:36.120 no matter what, whether they agree with them disagree with them. 0:32:36.520 --> 0:32:38.600 And I feel like with Democrats, we do such a 0:32:38.680 --> 0:32:41.360 great job of being really divided amongst each other that 0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:44.000 we kind of like tear each other down so much 0:32:44.040 --> 0:32:45.880 that by the time it's time for an election. And 0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:49.560 we've seen that happen obviously with Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. 0:32:50.040 --> 0:32:53.680 With the Republicans, whoever their candidate is, it doesn't matter 0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:58.200 they are behind them, Nie, they'll switch what they think 0:32:58.680 --> 0:33:01.400 depending on what they're leading or tells them. There's no 0:33:01.920 --> 0:33:04.719 there's no principle behind it anymore. If you look at 0:33:04.760 --> 0:33:07.960 the criticisms that were leveled at Barack Obama by the 0:33:08.080 --> 0:33:12.600 Republicans for eight years, well, Donald Trump by almost every metric, 0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:17.440 has performed worse according to their own criticism. So what 0:33:17.560 --> 0:33:20.920 they do is they change the metric. So what they 0:33:21.080 --> 0:33:25.000 told you they believed in eight years ago, they've shown 0:33:25.040 --> 0:33:27.040 you they don't believe in now. Well, what do you 0:33:27.120 --> 0:33:37.280 anticipate happening in November? Man? I you know, I would 0:33:37.320 --> 0:33:42.520 say the focus for the left should simply be protecting 0:33:43.200 --> 0:33:48.240 the vote we can. You're gonna see four voting boots 0:33:48.760 --> 0:33:54.719 for eight hundred thousand people like protect the ability to vote. 0:33:55.280 --> 0:33:57.520 They couldn't. They couldn't do that in twenty sixteen, though, 0:33:57.640 --> 0:33:59.920 Like they can't get an election security bill path because 0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:03.400 Mitch McConnell, we know its voted suppression. Not to mention 0:34:03.480 --> 0:34:06.240 voter depression just because people aren't enthused by Joe Biden. 0:34:06.680 --> 0:34:09.640 It's like it's gonna be bad. The hardest thing for 0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:13.799 someone like in your position to do is maintain your 0:34:14.360 --> 0:34:20.479 optimism and enthusiasm because they're trying to wear you down. 0:34:21.160 --> 0:34:26.399 You guys are are drivers of enthusiasm and interest. Keep 0:34:26.840 --> 0:34:31.640 deconstructing the nonsense. What the problem I have? Sometimes with Democrats, 0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:34.560 they'll say, we need the largest voter turnout in US 0:34:34.680 --> 0:34:37.480 history to win this November, but we can't tell people 0:34:37.560 --> 0:34:39.520 all the things they are up against because they may 0:34:39.600 --> 0:34:42.000 not come out in November. And in the movie, Colonel 0:34:42.080 --> 0:34:43.680 Jack has a lie where he says, you can't win 0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:46.280 a battle if you're not honest about what you're up against. 0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:48.960 If DEM's told the American people the truth, we may 0:34:49.000 --> 0:34:51.200 be energized to come out in November. Let people know, 0:34:51.440 --> 0:34:54.399 yes there's Russian interference, Yes there's voted suppression, Yes there's 0:34:54.440 --> 0:34:56.120 voted depression people are they're gonna try to steale this 0:34:56.200 --> 0:34:57.600 election from you, but we need y'all to come out 0:34:57.640 --> 0:34:59.600 in droves in order to beat that. Tell the truth 0:35:00.360 --> 0:35:03.000 completely agree. And part of what I was trying to 0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:05.840 show in the movie is that again there's rot in 0:35:05.960 --> 0:35:10.200 the infrastructure of those systems. You'll see here's what's gonna happen. 0:35:10.239 --> 0:35:12.960 You're gonna see Joe Biden have to go out and 0:35:13.120 --> 0:35:16.319 talk to YouTube influencers, and he's gonna do it without 0:35:16.360 --> 0:35:18.600 wearing a tie because you know, young people, if you're 0:35:18.600 --> 0:35:21.040 wearing a tie, they don't know you know, you already 0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:25.360 kicks up. It's the one thing what I really you know, 0:35:25.719 --> 0:35:29.720 for Joe Biden, what Biden wasn't my guy? Perfectly honest? 0:35:30.320 --> 0:35:33.720 How much more in the Biden Warren Camper, h Sanders 0:35:33.760 --> 0:35:37.759 Warren Camper. But he's my guy now because I do 0:35:38.080 --> 0:35:42.400 think it's not just about anybody but Trump in this moment, 0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:48.920 we are a nation in anguish and anger and fear. 0:35:49.520 --> 0:35:52.279 And here's my hope about Biden. This is a man 0:35:53.200 --> 0:36:00.640 who knows loss. He has suffered, his wife, a young child, son. 0:36:01.960 --> 0:36:06.320 My hope is that loss has humbled him to the 0:36:06.520 --> 0:36:13.120 idea of what it feels like to be an anguished people. 0:36:13.840 --> 0:36:16.920 I feel like we need a leader in this moment 0:36:17.520 --> 0:36:23.480 of humility who is looking to understand their own ignorance 0:36:23.560 --> 0:36:27.200 and blind spots and do better and be humble enough 0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:30.600 to know what they don't know, and to be humbled 0:36:30.719 --> 0:36:35.440 enough by grief to know the pain that people carry 0:36:35.520 --> 0:36:38.560 with them every day. All right, we got more with 0:36:38.680 --> 0:36:40.800 John Stewart when we come back, don't move. It's the 0:36:40.840 --> 0:36:46.960 Breakfast Club. Commoney Morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, 0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:48.919 the guy we all the Breakfast Club was still kicking 0:36:48.920 --> 0:36:52.719 in with John Stewart. Charlomagne's autold Rolling Stone Magazine. That 0:36:52.800 --> 0:36:56.000 you believe the issue with situations like George Floyd's death 0:36:56.360 --> 0:36:58.200 is that we're addressing the wrong problem. Is that what 0:36:58.280 --> 0:36:59.880 you mean is that we should be addressing whites of 0:37:00.000 --> 0:37:03.200 emacy and systemic racism. That what you meant we should 0:37:03.200 --> 0:37:07.880 be addressing equity? Okay. In the Great Depression, we formed 0:37:07.880 --> 0:37:13.080 the Federal Housing Administration, and it specifically wrote into federal 0:37:13.160 --> 0:37:15.680 guidelines for housing that black people couldn't get loans to 0:37:15.760 --> 0:37:18.319 buy their houses. The wealth of this country has been 0:37:18.400 --> 0:37:21.920 built on equity, and then there was redlining, and then 0:37:21.960 --> 0:37:26.120 there were zoning changes. This is not happenstand, and you 0:37:26.320 --> 0:37:30.279 can't build a ghetto and then suddenly decide, Okay, that's 0:37:30.320 --> 0:37:32.640 not here anymore, but we are going to police the 0:37:32.840 --> 0:37:34.680 edge of it, and we're never going to tear it 0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:38.920 down because when you quarantine people, you cut off the 0:37:39.160 --> 0:37:43.640 economic tributaries that exist to feed that area. What you 0:37:43.800 --> 0:37:45.799 have to do to face this, and maybe this plays 0:37:45.840 --> 0:37:51.120 into what reparations could be, which is call it project equity, 0:37:51.520 --> 0:37:56.600 a martial plan to build black ownership, because you can't 0:37:56.719 --> 0:38:02.440 negotiate equality from a subserve in position. So our generational 0:38:02.600 --> 0:38:07.040 challenge is to help build black equities. I just want 0:38:07.040 --> 0:38:10.399 to hear from from you guys what you think are 0:38:10.440 --> 0:38:14.000 the remedies beyond police and things like God No, the 0:38:14.080 --> 0:38:16.879 only way America can atone for its original sin, which 0:38:17.000 --> 0:38:20.800 is slavery, is through legislation and most importantly, reparations. So 0:38:20.880 --> 0:38:22.279 I totally agree with you. There has to be some 0:38:22.360 --> 0:38:26.000 type of economic equity package that is, you know, presented 0:38:26.000 --> 0:38:28.040 to the black community like it's really it's really just 0:38:28.239 --> 0:38:31.040 that simple. Yeah. I think education is really important in 0:38:31.080 --> 0:38:33.480 making sure if our kids that they have something to 0:38:33.600 --> 0:38:35.880 do when they're not in school, but making sure that 0:38:36.040 --> 0:38:38.600 it's equal. Like just some people don't want to send 0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:41.520 their kids to school in certain districts and the school 0:38:41.560 --> 0:38:43.760 system is not good there. They don't have the right books, 0:38:43.800 --> 0:38:46.320 the right tools, the right teachers. Even we have to 0:38:46.440 --> 0:38:49.120 make sure that we fix up neighborhoods that people living 0:38:49.120 --> 0:38:51.000 in that they have access to things that people in 0:38:51.080 --> 0:38:54.240 other neighborhoods have access to. If there is a domestic 0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:57.319 dispute that I agree that police shouldn't be called into 0:38:57.400 --> 0:39:00.120 a situation like that. I do think that something that 0:39:00.239 --> 0:39:03.279 a mediator or someone that is specialized to deal with 0:39:03.400 --> 0:39:05.080 something like that, And I know we've said that also 0:39:05.160 --> 0:39:08.280 about people who suffer from mental health issues, addiction issues, 0:39:08.360 --> 0:39:10.719 things like that. I think certain cases, we don't need 0:39:10.760 --> 0:39:13.560 somebody with a gun to show up that may not 0:39:13.719 --> 0:39:16.840 necessarily know how to de escalate or handle that situation. 0:39:16.920 --> 0:39:19.640 So I think there's a lot of things that are necessary, 0:39:19.680 --> 0:39:21.200 and there's a lot of things that we need in 0:39:21.360 --> 0:39:24.960 order for us to start achieving some of that some 0:39:25.080 --> 0:39:26.919 of that equity. Like you said, think what she said 0:39:26.960 --> 0:39:31.239 is the most important is knowledge, right, you look at 0:39:31.640 --> 0:39:33.520 for myself. I'm the first person in my family to 0:39:33.600 --> 0:39:35.880 graduate from college, the first person in my family to 0:39:35.920 --> 0:39:39.319 be an entrepreneur. Not because my parents didn't is because 0:39:39.360 --> 0:39:41.719 they didn't know how to. You know, we're trying to 0:39:41.760 --> 0:39:44.120 get equality, and most white people have equity. You know, 0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:47.040 we're just trying to figure out how to get equity. 0:39:47.160 --> 0:39:48.840 You know, we still have to face the fact that 0:39:48.960 --> 0:39:50.560 the banks won't lend us money. We still have to 0:39:50.600 --> 0:39:52.640 face the fact that, you know, they push us out 0:39:52.680 --> 0:39:56.680 our communities, buy our communities, then put our communities back together, 0:39:56.680 --> 0:39:58.920 and then charge us three times the rent. John America 0:39:59.000 --> 0:40:00.560 still have to give us what they oh, call you 0:40:00.680 --> 0:40:03.600 white friends and tell them that reparations is all to 0:40:03.680 --> 0:40:07.799 the black community. And how would you like to see 0:40:07.880 --> 0:40:10.440 that Who do we make the check out to, first 0:40:10.440 --> 0:40:13.560 of all? And how would you like to see that done? 0:40:13.640 --> 0:40:16.600 Because that's really so here's part of the issue. Right, 0:40:16.880 --> 0:40:18.719 We're still in a position that you've got to sell 0:40:18.800 --> 0:40:21.600 that to the white community. So you've got two problems. 0:40:21.800 --> 0:40:24.680 Run the large portion of white people who think black 0:40:24.719 --> 0:40:27.760 people are responsible for that that it's that that poverty 0:40:28.360 --> 0:40:32.560 and crime is of poor virtue and culture. By the way, 0:40:32.880 --> 0:40:35.600 wouldn't talk about white poverty that way. If you listen 0:40:35.719 --> 0:40:40.120 to them talk about the rust belt poverty, the factory workers, well, 0:40:40.200 --> 0:40:44.080 those they're victims of circumstance. Black people come on suck 0:40:44.120 --> 0:40:48.480 it up. So that's one perception that has to be changed. 0:40:48.800 --> 0:40:53.960 The second is resource guarding. So another large portion might think, well, 0:40:54.040 --> 0:40:56.760 my life's not that easy, and why do I always 0:40:56.800 --> 0:41:00.279 have to give up my resources to go to people 0:41:00.360 --> 0:41:03.120 when I didn't do anything wrong? So how do we 0:41:03.239 --> 0:41:07.520 bridge that gap? And I think the answer is, Look, 0:41:07.840 --> 0:41:12.120 we're stuck in this trickle down theory of economics where 0:41:12.160 --> 0:41:15.680 one point five car tax go to people at the top, 0:41:15.960 --> 0:41:19.360 and we've tried it since the eighties and it doesn't work. 0:41:19.880 --> 0:41:25.640 The job generationally for us is a marshal plan at 0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:31.240 that scale of building infrastructure, of creating you will change 0:41:31.719 --> 0:41:35.000 welfare and fluss by bringing money back to the dignity 0:41:35.040 --> 0:41:38.480 of work, taking it away from the investor class. The 0:41:38.600 --> 0:41:41.600 pendulum is swung to fall, and I think that black 0:41:41.640 --> 0:41:44.440 people have to be in charge of their rebuilding effort. 0:41:44.800 --> 0:41:47.560 It can't be the white people in the government step 0:41:47.640 --> 0:41:49.279 out and say, okay, we're going to give you an 0:41:49.280 --> 0:41:52.600 opportunity zone. This isn't about an opportunity zone. This is 0:41:52.640 --> 0:41:55.799 about black people building equity for themselves and for each 0:41:55.840 --> 0:42:00.719 other and being funded by an infrastructure in investment. And 0:42:00.800 --> 0:42:03.920 you could take hundreds of billions of dollars in funding 0:42:03.960 --> 0:42:06.960 and technical support and turn around, you know, one hundred 0:42:07.000 --> 0:42:10.000 of the country's most disadvantaged communities like you can focus on, 0:42:10.640 --> 0:42:14.120 you know, disparities in early childhood schools, higher education, skills 0:42:14.160 --> 0:42:17.640 and training, employment, health and environmental conditions that you could 0:42:17.640 --> 0:42:21.440 literally turn the hood around tomorrow and ownership. And then 0:42:21.520 --> 0:42:24.759 what I would say is to make sure that in 0:42:24.960 --> 0:42:30.280 those infrastructure investments that middle class white people are also 0:42:30.480 --> 0:42:35.719 reassured that these replarations aren't being taken from you, that 0:42:35.880 --> 0:42:40.839 it's an investment in rising up and creating a much 0:42:40.920 --> 0:42:44.719 stronger middle class throughout the country. But also making sure 0:42:45.160 --> 0:42:51.719 that they're reassured that resources will also be available for them. 0:42:51.920 --> 0:42:55.000 It seems so crazy when there's problems, right and they say, okay, 0:42:55.000 --> 0:42:56.480 well we're going to cut a tree in dollar check 0:42:56.840 --> 0:42:58.640 to bring the economy back. And then we look at 0:42:58.680 --> 0:43:00.799 all our communities and said, you could have cut these 0:43:00.880 --> 0:43:03.560 checks file communities years ago if it was that easy 0:43:03.600 --> 0:43:06.840 to make the money that's right, and that's what three trillion, 0:43:06.880 --> 0:43:09.719 four trillion dollars in this pandemic and we don't even 0:43:09.800 --> 0:43:13.719 know where it went right the exactly. You know what 0:43:13.800 --> 0:43:15.239 else you can do? You can you can you can 0:43:15.360 --> 0:43:18.880 increase access to capital um both debt and equity by 0:43:18.920 --> 0:43:21.520 supporting black owned banks, you know, because those black owned 0:43:21.520 --> 0:43:23.120 banks are going to make sure that, you know, people 0:43:23.200 --> 0:43:29.480 get your money for entrepreneurs, are school owners, education, your homeownersaire, 0:43:29.520 --> 0:43:32.200 all that. And I definitely feel like the marijuana business 0:43:32.280 --> 0:43:34.520 has to come back into the communities since so many 0:43:34.560 --> 0:43:37.600 people were sent to jail for marijuana convictions and lost 0:43:37.680 --> 0:43:39.959 so much. I think all the money they're they're making 0:43:40.360 --> 0:43:43.279 for marijuana and they're going to make a percentage of 0:43:43.360 --> 0:43:45.680 that has to go towards these programs as well. And 0:43:45.840 --> 0:43:49.440 that's another great point answer because look, man, I truly 0:43:49.520 --> 0:43:52.319 believe in power black I'd be in jail because when 0:43:52.360 --> 0:43:55.880 I was growing up, I pulled, but it would do 0:43:56.040 --> 0:43:59.320 I was given a past. It was drugs and alcohol 0:43:59.440 --> 0:44:02.960 and Shenanigan's vandalism. If you're trying to tell me that 0:44:03.280 --> 0:44:06.400 black kids in this country do more drugs and white kids, no, 0:44:08.440 --> 0:44:10.839 but white kids don't go to jail for it, right, 0:44:10.920 --> 0:44:13.279 because it's just the part of being a kid. Right, 0:44:14.120 --> 0:44:17.800 So we've criminalized being a teenager. So let's say we 0:44:17.920 --> 0:44:20.960 did do something like that. Play it out. Who runs it? 0:44:21.440 --> 0:44:24.880 Somebody like Obama, somebody like like you need a point 0:44:25.000 --> 0:44:30.960 person of Robert Smith, Ye, Robert Smith riches African American 0:44:31.040 --> 0:44:36.200 in America. Why not start making this a concrete proposition 0:44:36.760 --> 0:44:40.120 and start putting names and numbers and things to it 0:44:40.920 --> 0:44:45.440 and realize that in a way that we haven't been 0:44:45.480 --> 0:44:47.680 able to do before. All right, we got more with 0:44:47.800 --> 0:44:49.920 John Stewart when we come back, don't move? Is the 0:44:49.960 --> 0:44:55.279 breakfast Club good morning ej Envy Angela Yee. Chalomagne, the 0:44:55.360 --> 0:44:57.200 guy we all the breakfast Club was still kicking in 0:44:57.280 --> 0:45:00.080 with John Stewart. Chalomagne. You know that's an interesting as 0:45:00.080 --> 0:45:02.040 you say that, because I mean, you've got legislation passed 0:45:02.120 --> 0:45:05.920 and you got people paid with eleven billful of first 0:45:06.000 --> 0:45:10.000 respond is how difficult was the incredibly difficult and the 0:45:10.120 --> 0:45:14.560 strangest thing was it was most difficult to convince those 0:45:15.200 --> 0:45:20.120 that supposedly represent patriotism in this country the most. It 0:45:20.400 --> 0:45:25.040 was Republican leaders who never fail on nine to eleven 0:45:25.400 --> 0:45:28.640 to tweet out, don't forget our heroes. But when you 0:45:28.800 --> 0:45:31.000 go to their office and go and man, I'm here 0:45:31.040 --> 0:45:33.440 with the heroes and three of them have staged four 0:45:33.520 --> 0:45:37.640 cancer and this guy's on an oxygen machine. So what 0:45:37.800 --> 0:45:40.879 about that? That's the New York problem. Well, you can't 0:45:40.920 --> 0:45:44.600 really prove that it came from that. So the government 0:45:44.960 --> 0:45:49.359 is set up to deny, to continue the status quo 0:45:49.719 --> 0:45:52.799 so that the money flows to the people that they 0:45:52.960 --> 0:45:57.200 believe helped entrench them in their positions. And that's where 0:45:57.640 --> 0:46:00.920 it has to change. What it's going to take is 0:46:01.400 --> 0:46:06.520 tremendous will, but almost more importantly, tremendous stamina. It also 0:46:06.600 --> 0:46:09.800 takes you white men like you, who have privilege and 0:46:09.880 --> 0:46:13.279 power to admit that white supremacy exists, to admit that 0:46:13.360 --> 0:46:17.560 systemic racism exists. I do feel like what's hard about 0:46:17.600 --> 0:46:20.640 that for people is you get defensis. Nobody likes to 0:46:20.680 --> 0:46:23.359 be called on their especially when they feel like it's 0:46:23.400 --> 0:46:26.799 not really there. Look when I started on The Daily Show, 0:46:26.920 --> 0:46:30.680 right pretty much an all white staff, mostly male, and 0:46:30.800 --> 0:46:33.120 people would call me out on various about it, and 0:46:33.200 --> 0:46:35.759 I would get defensive until I had to stop and 0:46:35.840 --> 0:46:37.400 think about it. You know, there was an article written 0:46:37.640 --> 0:46:39.880 there weren't enough women writers, and I was sexist, and 0:46:39.920 --> 0:46:42.359 I was like sexist. I was raised by a single mother. 0:46:42.480 --> 0:46:45.080 My mother wore a T shirt that says a woman 0:46:45.120 --> 0:46:47.040 needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle, and 0:46:47.120 --> 0:46:50.080 I'm a man. I drew up in the house where 0:46:50.080 --> 0:46:52.920 I knew I wasn't and I've never gone back into 0:46:52.960 --> 0:46:56.600 the writer's room and saying, you believe they Kevin Steve 0:46:57.160 --> 0:47:06.279 like Bob. Now, we had had a policy that all 0:47:06.360 --> 0:47:09.120 submissions there'd be no names on it, right, because we 0:47:09.280 --> 0:47:13.040 thought that's the way to not be sexist or racist things. 0:47:13.320 --> 0:47:16.719 But we still kept just hiring white dudes. And what 0:47:16.840 --> 0:47:20.640 we realized is the river that we were getting the 0:47:20.800 --> 0:47:25.640 material from, the tributary was also polluted by the same inertia. 0:47:26.719 --> 0:47:29.520 And you had to say to them, send me women, 0:47:30.040 --> 0:47:33.880 send me black people, And all of a sudden women 0:47:33.960 --> 0:47:37.040 got funny. But they've been funny all along. We had 0:47:37.400 --> 0:47:39.560 a writer of color. He and I got an argument. 0:47:39.600 --> 0:47:43.680 I did a bit about Herman Kinge where I adopted 0:47:43.760 --> 0:47:48.080 Herman Kane's accent, right, and to me is just his accent, 0:47:48.520 --> 0:47:51.960 but to that writer is a racist bit. And he 0:47:52.080 --> 0:47:54.120 called me out in a meeting with everybody around, and 0:47:54.200 --> 0:47:58.239 I got defensive and got mad, and it took me 0:47:58.280 --> 0:48:01.920 a long time to realize that the real issue was 0:48:02.520 --> 0:48:06.440 that we hired a person who is black and that 0:48:07.000 --> 0:48:12.320 because then they felt like they're carrying the weight of representation. 0:48:13.480 --> 0:48:16.840 So they suddenly feel like I've got to be the 0:48:17.040 --> 0:48:19.880 speaker of a rick and that puts a pressure on them. 0:48:19.960 --> 0:48:22.719 That so we think we're doing the right thing, but 0:48:22.840 --> 0:48:25.719 we're not doing it in the right way. And those 0:48:25.800 --> 0:48:29.360 were hard lessons for me, and they were humbling lessons. 0:48:29.760 --> 0:48:34.080 Here's another one, socioeconomic. The television business, the radio business. 0:48:34.280 --> 0:48:38.000 It's run by people from Westchester and Long Island, right, 0:48:38.280 --> 0:48:42.400 because the internships weren't paid, so interns would come in. 0:48:42.600 --> 0:48:44.279 And if you're going to hire somebody, where are you 0:48:44.320 --> 0:48:46.720 going to hire them from the people you've met already? 0:48:46.800 --> 0:48:49.960 The intern The only people who could do internships had 0:48:50.040 --> 0:48:52.879 parents that were rich enough that could allow those kids 0:48:53.120 --> 0:48:55.120 to take a little time off of college, live in 0:48:55.160 --> 0:48:57.880 New York City and do that job. So the whole 0:48:58.480 --> 0:49:04.440 thing is needed with inertia. And I don't consider myself malevolent, 0:49:04.880 --> 0:49:11.360 but my ignorance of that dynamic had real consequences. But 0:49:11.520 --> 0:49:14.520 she was willing to learn, though I honestly think that 0:49:14.680 --> 0:49:18.160 most people are willing to learn. It's getting over the 0:49:18.280 --> 0:49:22.920 defensiveness to realize you're not being called racist or like 0:49:23.280 --> 0:49:25.680 or maybe you are or not giving so much of 0:49:25.719 --> 0:49:28.640 a ship that somebody might call you that, and be 0:49:28.760 --> 0:49:31.600 willing to say, like, we all have blind spots, and 0:49:31.760 --> 0:49:35.200 we still have blind spots. I know I do. But 0:49:35.840 --> 0:49:42.440 for us to dismantle the entrenched tributaries that continue to 0:49:42.840 --> 0:49:49.759 contribute to any quality of outcome of equity, it takes effort. Yeah, 0:49:49.760 --> 0:49:51.480 it's all got to be intentional. Men got to be 0:49:51.600 --> 0:49:53.800 intentional when it comes to women. White people got to 0:49:53.840 --> 0:49:55.640 be intentional when it comes to black people's great people 0:49:55.680 --> 0:49:57.200 got to be intentional when it comes to gay people. 0:49:57.200 --> 0:49:59.879 We got to be intentional about it. I think that's 0:50:00.000 --> 0:50:02.880 the perfect encapsulation of it. I got a couple more 0:50:02.920 --> 0:50:05.279 questions about the Daily Show. You. I saw what you said. 0:50:05.360 --> 0:50:12.839 You regret the Daily Show's involvement in the evasporation, expectation, inviseration, 0:50:12.920 --> 0:50:16.160 I'm sorry, inviseration. Sometimes we'd have someone on, like like 0:50:16.320 --> 0:50:18.919 Jim Cramer or something like that. It's what they would 0:50:18.920 --> 0:50:21.960 call good television, so that blows up on the on 0:50:22.040 --> 0:50:25.960 the internet or whatever. I don't regret that moment, but 0:50:26.280 --> 0:50:29.360 what I regret is sometimes you get in the mindset 0:50:29.480 --> 0:50:33.600 of creating those moments, those moments that weren't authentic. Yeah, 0:50:33.680 --> 0:50:37.000 it's like you're it's like you're your people pleasing too much. 0:50:37.080 --> 0:50:39.120 Like instead of going in there and doing what's natural, 0:50:39.200 --> 0:50:41.640 you want to do what you just saw work. So 0:50:41.800 --> 0:50:44.040 you want to do that again. Yeah, that happens. It 0:50:44.040 --> 0:50:46.560 happens to Radio two. And then the second thing I 0:50:46.640 --> 0:50:49.200 think that's important to do, and this is the hardest one, 0:50:49.680 --> 0:50:52.640 is to give yourself. Right. For giving yourself is the 0:50:52.760 --> 0:50:57.200 key to getting over your own defensiveness and imperfections, like 0:50:58.160 --> 0:51:02.279 I had to learn and to forgive myself for being 0:51:02.400 --> 0:51:07.399 wrong in situations and that hurting people and not wanting them. 0:51:07.680 --> 0:51:09.400 But we have to be able to start having the 0:51:09.520 --> 0:51:13.560 honest conversations because it's like everything else. You don't fix 0:51:13.680 --> 0:51:16.320 something if you don't get to what's really the cancer 0:51:16.400 --> 0:51:18.719 at the bottom of it. For a period of time, 0:51:18.760 --> 0:51:20.400 people that you were going to come back. Are you 0:51:20.560 --> 0:51:25.480 enjoying this behind the scenes more though? Law? You know, 0:51:25.560 --> 0:51:28.719 look at this face. This face was young man. I'm 0:51:28.800 --> 0:51:36.160 aging like a guacamole president President of America. I feel 0:51:36.239 --> 0:51:39.279 like I took that conversation as far as I could 0:51:39.320 --> 0:51:43.240 take it for my own thing, and that show deserved 0:51:43.320 --> 0:51:46.359 and that audience deserved somebody who was going to bring 0:51:46.400 --> 0:51:51.239 a different perspective and an enthusiasm and an insight that 0:51:51.400 --> 0:51:54.640 I can't bring. And I think we've seen that play out. 0:51:54.800 --> 0:51:58.120 You know, to me, diversity is still technology, you know 0:51:58.160 --> 0:52:00.200 what I mean. It's like an old person when they 0:52:00.200 --> 0:52:02.560 get a smartphone. It's new and I can work it, 0:52:03.239 --> 0:52:06.480 but it's not my kids when they get on the phone. 0:52:06.719 --> 0:52:12.000 It just is Trevor in this moment, just is yeah, 0:52:12.400 --> 0:52:14.920 and I still have to work. And I don't say 0:52:14.960 --> 0:52:17.359 that in the way of like white guilt. I don't 0:52:17.400 --> 0:52:19.960 mean it like that. I mean I didn't see the 0:52:20.000 --> 0:52:23.399 whole field, and by not seeing the whole field well enough, 0:52:23.880 --> 0:52:27.960 I wasn't able to make the kinds of changes that 0:52:28.440 --> 0:52:30.960 I should have made at the speed and depths I 0:52:31.040 --> 0:52:33.880 should have made them. Wow, we're always not going to 0:52:33.920 --> 0:52:35.920 get it right, you know. And that's what therapy is for. 0:52:36.520 --> 0:52:41.840 That's exactly what it's for. Appreciate it. You have to 0:52:41.880 --> 0:52:44.160 tell us why the title is irresistible. Why is that 0:52:44.280 --> 0:52:48.080 relevant to the plot of the film, Because sometimes you 0:52:48.200 --> 0:52:53.759 can trap somebody with date, with lure that you know 0:52:53.920 --> 0:52:58.239 would be irresistible to them, that when you see how 0:52:58.360 --> 0:53:02.640 somebody views the world through that prism of conflict and 0:53:02.800 --> 0:53:06.440 left versus right and rural versus city, you can lay 0:53:06.480 --> 0:53:10.640 out something for them date that you know they're gonna take. 0:53:11.320 --> 0:53:15.960 We would take debate every time. Holy don't just hit me. 0:53:16.400 --> 0:53:21.759 Did that goddamn pastry represent that in the movie? Boom, Okay, 0:53:23.360 --> 0:53:25.880 got you, got you, got you, got you, got you, 0:53:26.000 --> 0:53:29.719 got you, got you. I'm getting fat, got you, got you, 0:53:29.920 --> 0:53:32.239 got you got you And even when he now, I'm 0:53:32.239 --> 0:53:36.479 not gonna give it away. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Brilliant movie, 0:53:36.560 --> 0:53:39.080 John Stewart, brilliant movie. Man. Thank you for calling in 0:53:39.120 --> 0:53:41.560 and checking in and you know, stay up with us sometimes, 0:53:41.600 --> 0:53:44.480 you know. Absolutely, guys, thank you so much for the conversation. 0:53:44.520 --> 0:53:48.120 I really appreciate it. Appreciate it. All right, it's John Stewart. 0:53:48.200 --> 0:53:51.800 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. I think everybody is 0:53:52.239 --> 0:53:55.560 ch Envy Angela, Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the 0:53:55.640 --> 0:53:58.880 Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Eminem 0:54:00.120 --> 0:54:08.680 about report. This is the rumor report Angela Ye fun 0:54:08.760 --> 0:54:13.279 the Breakfast Club. Yes, so an old version of a 0:54:13.560 --> 0:54:17.560 song Conway the Machines Bang from twenty nineteen has leaked 0:54:17.560 --> 0:54:21.160 out and it has Eminem's original feature and he's going 0:54:21.239 --> 0:54:24.440 in on Revolt and Joe Button. He jes had out 0:54:24.480 --> 0:54:27.200 Puffy Combs. Listen to this. Shut the puffy calls, but 0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:29.960 fu revote. Y'all are like a funk up remote. Now 0:54:30.000 --> 0:54:31.840 I get it while buttons broke because you press them. 0:54:31.840 --> 0:54:33.839 But he don't do nothing, No, especially when it comes 0:54:33.880 --> 0:54:37.439 to Punch's throwing smoke. So the brunning roll. Take another 0:54:37.520 --> 0:54:39.759 boss that is clipping in al because all you're gonna 0:54:39.800 --> 0:54:42.480 get is an al smoke coming approach. So we don't 0:54:42.520 --> 0:54:44.399 got nothing in common, not even though he's got cold 0:54:44.440 --> 0:54:46.279 and he's an issue with it comes to blows. We 0:54:46.320 --> 0:54:48.200 used to teach each other's journal. Let's kick to the stuff. 0:54:48.200 --> 0:54:52.160 He knows. It's like always learning me goes all right, Well, 0:54:52.200 --> 0:54:54.239 there's no secret that Eminem is not a big fan 0:54:54.280 --> 0:54:57.719 of Joe Button. Yeah, well, I revolte catches Tree. I 0:54:57.760 --> 0:55:00.960 think because state of the Coaches. I'm revolte see state, 0:55:01.040 --> 0:55:04.040 say stated the coaching say a black owned the whole 0:55:04.320 --> 0:55:07.080 TV network just because you're mad at what personality. It's 0:55:07.120 --> 0:55:09.560 a bad time people saying. People don't say F Power 0:55:09.600 --> 0:55:12.239 one oh five or after breakfast Club, they might say 0:55:12.280 --> 0:55:16.520 F Charlemagne. They do say after breakfast club. Yeah, they do, 0:55:16.800 --> 0:55:19.799 because you'll be doing y'all y'all be y'all be owning 0:55:19.840 --> 0:55:22.160 y'all own smoke. Though y'all y'all gone y'all own smokes. 0:55:22.239 --> 0:55:25.880 Sometimes they're saying bad things that we had nothing, Like 0:55:25.920 --> 0:55:28.080 if I'm not even here for a day, they'll be like, 0:55:28.200 --> 0:55:30.279 F the Breakfast Club. I'm like, I wasn't even there. 0:55:30.520 --> 0:55:32.759 I'll take it. Yeah, I mean it is what it 0:55:32.920 --> 0:55:36.080 is that he gave it to the whole network because 0:55:36.120 --> 0:55:38.640 he doesn't like Joe Button Ma. I mean that means 0:55:38.680 --> 0:55:41.800 Effre me ma after Breakfast Club and K Williams F 0:55:42.000 --> 0:55:45.680 no Orion drink Champs. Did he so F vote is 0:55:45.680 --> 0:55:47.920 the staff record label and mother Effre crew And you 0:55:47.960 --> 0:55:51.120 gotta think, yeah, wash a little button, GETU the skin 0:55:51.239 --> 0:55:54.240 like that so much? Though, um, I guess probably because 0:55:54.239 --> 0:55:57.080 the record he was signed. Yeah, it's old, but I 0:55:57.160 --> 0:55:59.440 think it's you know, because of what Joe Button said 0:55:59.440 --> 0:56:01.880 about him, and he probably feels like I thought it 0:56:02.000 --> 0:56:04.880 was cool. I you know, he was signed to the label, 0:56:05.280 --> 0:56:08.719 and he probably feels like he was betrayed. All right, 0:56:08.800 --> 0:56:11.520 Little Yadi crashed his Ferrari on a freeway in Atlanta 0:56:11.560 --> 0:56:15.360 after hydroplaning. How scary is that? So they said it. 0:56:15.640 --> 0:56:18.040 Fortunately he was able to walk away with just minor 0:56:18.120 --> 0:56:20.800 injuries to his arm and that's it. So that's the 0:56:20.920 --> 0:56:24.920 most important thing. We're not sure what's gonna happen with 0:56:25.000 --> 0:56:28.359 that Ferrari, but they're saying it's totaled. Yeah, it's totals eight. 0:56:28.440 --> 0:56:32.000 Spider ferraris about I would say, knew about three hundred 0:56:32.000 --> 0:56:34.160 and thirty thousand dollars. But he has his life. That's 0:56:34.160 --> 0:56:36.000 the only thing that matters. He has his life. He 0:56:36.239 --> 0:56:40.000 walked away alive, thank god. That's right, all right, all right. 0:56:40.080 --> 0:56:42.880 Jimmy Kimmel has announced that he is going on vacation, 0:56:43.520 --> 0:56:46.400 and that is after a lot of controversies has been happening, 0:56:46.480 --> 0:56:50.200 like this blackface sketch that resurfaced where he's playing kar 0:56:50.320 --> 0:56:53.680 Malone on comedy centrals. The Man's Show. Listen to this 0:56:54.320 --> 0:56:57.120 sometime a night call old look up in sky and 0:56:57.239 --> 0:57:01.239 say what the hell going on up there? UFO Live 0:57:01.280 --> 0:57:05.719 on other planet, folding hole like et Kamalo Rido TV 0:57:05.840 --> 0:57:09.200 about white people getting deducted by alien sticking all kind 0:57:09.280 --> 0:57:12.480 of hell up big and that's a damn thing. Now. 0:57:12.560 --> 0:57:14.960 In addition to that, they've been circulating this clip of 0:57:15.040 --> 0:57:16.880 an interview that he did back in two thousand and 0:57:17.000 --> 0:57:20.360 nine with Megan Fox, where she was recalling an experience 0:57:20.440 --> 0:57:22.800 with director Michael Bay from when she was a teenager 0:57:23.360 --> 0:57:26.000 and she was working as an extra on Bad Boys Too. 0:57:26.560 --> 0:57:28.640 She said, she was only fifteen years old, and here's 0:57:28.680 --> 0:57:32.000 what happened. I had just turned fifteen, and I was 0:57:32.080 --> 0:57:35.280 an extra and Bad Boys Too, really and yeah, they 0:57:35.320 --> 0:57:38.120 were shooting this club scene and they brought me in 0:57:38.440 --> 0:57:41.600 and I was wearing a stars and striped bikini and 0:57:41.640 --> 0:57:44.960 a red cowboy hat and like six and sheels and 0:57:45.200 --> 0:57:48.600 he approved it and they said, you know, Michael, she's fifteen, 0:57:48.720 --> 0:57:50.280 so you can't sit her at the bar and she 0:57:50.400 --> 0:57:52.480 can't have a drink in her hand. So his solution 0:57:52.600 --> 0:57:56.320 to that was to then have me dancing underneath the waterfall, 0:57:56.400 --> 0:57:59.000 getting soaking wet. That's sort of a microcosm of how 0:57:59.080 --> 0:58:01.840 Bay's mind work. Yeah, well, yeah, well that's really a 0:58:01.920 --> 0:58:05.280 microcosm of how all our minds works. But some of 0:58:05.400 --> 0:58:08.760 us have the decency to repress those facts and pretend 0:58:08.840 --> 0:58:11.280 that they don't exist. Yeah, Jimmy, that shouldn't have been 0:58:11.280 --> 0:58:13.880 a week. That should have been some men's thoughts. But 0:58:14.000 --> 0:58:16.760 if you felt that way, you know, he said it 0:58:17.440 --> 0:58:21.080 honest dead wrong, But honest, we really need to have 0:58:21.200 --> 0:58:24.640 a broader discussion about all of this, because everybody has 0:58:24.680 --> 0:58:26.240 the right to be offended. Everybody had the right to 0:58:26.240 --> 0:58:30.000 be upset. But I have an issue with retroactive outrage, 0:58:30.080 --> 0:58:33.360 retroactive punishments for things that were already public, because if 0:58:33.360 --> 0:58:36.160 it was public, that means it was appropriate at the time. 0:58:36.280 --> 0:58:39.320 The context of time matters, because the eighties and nineties 0:58:39.360 --> 0:58:42.360 and early two thousands was a wild ass, feel fory 0:58:42.440 --> 0:58:44.560 ass time. If you sit at home and watch some 0:58:44.640 --> 0:58:47.520 of those old movies, TV shows, listen to old music, 0:58:47.560 --> 0:58:50.440 you will absolutely say, how the hell did we get 0:58:50.480 --> 0:58:51.959 away with some of this stuff? And if you didn't 0:58:51.960 --> 0:58:54.640 grow up in that era, and when you look back 0:58:54.840 --> 0:58:57.479 and taking some of that content, yeah, you're probably gonna 0:58:57.480 --> 0:58:59.440 be a Paul. I'm sure you will. Be, but it 0:58:59.560 --> 0:59:01.160 was a different from a world back then. When I say, 0:59:01.200 --> 0:59:02.960 we are in a whole new world from where we 0:59:03.040 --> 0:59:05.800 were as far as censorship and pushing things to the edge, 0:59:06.000 --> 0:59:09.920 we are in a whole new world. I think people want. 0:59:09.960 --> 0:59:12.880 Tommy came out to address it, though, like Jimmy Fallon 0:59:12.920 --> 0:59:15.480 addressed his black face sketch that he did of Chris 0:59:15.640 --> 0:59:18.560 Rock and said he made a terrible decision and he 0:59:18.760 --> 0:59:21.760 was sorry for making that offensive decision at the time, 0:59:21.840 --> 0:59:23.360 and he said, thank you all of you for holding 0:59:23.400 --> 0:59:26.920 me accountable. So the only problem a problem with that 0:59:27.120 --> 0:59:29.560 is is you know, these people are what were hurt 0:59:29.600 --> 0:59:31.240 by it, and even though that that they were hurt 0:59:31.280 --> 0:59:33.840 by it back then, maybe they didn't get the apology 0:59:33.920 --> 0:59:35.800 that they wanted back then. So now that it comes 0:59:35.840 --> 0:59:37.840 back out now, they could be getting the apology that 0:59:37.880 --> 0:59:39.360 they need it back then, you know what I mean, 0:59:39.520 --> 0:59:43.400 It's okay to acknowledge and behavior. Yo. Some of these 0:59:43.440 --> 0:59:46.520 people probably weren't even born back then. And if you're 0:59:46.520 --> 0:59:49.240 gonna I also think if they're gonna do those retroactive punishments, 0:59:49.440 --> 0:59:52.040 you gotta punish everyone involved, not just the individual. You 0:59:52.080 --> 0:59:55.760 gotta punish the producers, the writers, the standards and practices, 0:59:55.840 --> 0:59:58.200 anybody that green lit those things. But I don't think 0:59:58.200 --> 1:00:01.440 it should be punishments. It should be a conversation about conversation, right, 1:00:01.520 --> 1:00:04.480 how coaches shifted and yes, you're right, he should acknowledge 1:00:04.520 --> 1:00:08.240 that that was wrong, right, and how that shouldn't continue 1:00:08.320 --> 1:00:11.840 moving forward. But we need to have a conversation about 1:00:12.000 --> 1:00:15.760 context and how culture shifted, because boy, when they start 1:00:15.840 --> 1:00:18.440 digging into the eighties, nineties and early two thousands, it's 1:00:18.480 --> 1:00:21.760 going to be a lot of apologies. Well, I don't 1:00:21.760 --> 1:00:24.200 think Jimmy Kimmel's not being punished. He's taking a break 1:00:24.240 --> 1:00:25.640 from the show. And here's what he had to say 1:00:25.640 --> 1:00:28.479 about taking a break. Tonight is my last new show 1:00:28.880 --> 1:00:31.600 for the summer. I'm taking the summer off to spend 1:00:31.760 --> 1:00:34.280 even more time with my family. I've been doing this 1:00:34.480 --> 1:00:37.840 job for almost eighteen years. I've done three thousand, one 1:00:37.960 --> 1:00:40.960 hundred thirty shows, and there's nothing wrong. My family is healthy, 1:00:41.080 --> 1:00:43.840 I'm healthy. I just need a couple of months off, right. 1:00:43.920 --> 1:00:46.040 So he's decided to take a break just to be 1:00:46.200 --> 1:00:48.320 with family. He said he needs a couple of months off, 1:00:48.360 --> 1:00:51.160 and all these things have been surfacing, So that's what 1:00:51.280 --> 1:00:53.280 it is. I mean, it's not like he's got punished 1:00:53.360 --> 1:00:56.080 or lost his job, right, Yeah, I still think it 1:00:56.120 --> 1:00:58.920 needs to be a broader conversation, not just with Kimmel, 1:00:59.000 --> 1:01:02.560 but just the whole context of the eighties, nineties, in 1:01:02.720 --> 1:01:06.040 early two thousands, it was a totally different world because 1:01:06.040 --> 1:01:07.640 you see what happened to Jimmy Fowling, You see what 1:01:07.680 --> 1:01:11.280 happened to Howard Stern. You see what happens you know, well, 1:01:11.360 --> 1:01:13.120 we haven't seen it happen in hip hop yet as 1:01:13.160 --> 1:01:14.640 far as like the content of that music. But I mean, 1:01:14.680 --> 1:01:16.600 if you think about the movies, the TV shows, like, 1:01:16.680 --> 1:01:19.080 it's just we should have a context about how culture 1:01:19.120 --> 1:01:20.760 is shifted. But you know what the thing is when 1:01:20.800 --> 1:01:23.440 it does affect people like Megan Fox was trending yesterday, right, 1:01:23.480 --> 1:01:25.120 and if you know the full story of what happened 1:01:25.160 --> 1:01:27.720 to her, she basically kind of got black ball from 1:01:27.720 --> 1:01:30.320 the business because Michael Bay was saying that she's terrible 1:01:30.440 --> 1:01:33.480 to work with. He calls her an unfriendly bitch, he 1:01:33.560 --> 1:01:35.360 said she's a porn star. He called Hi Miss hour 1:01:35.400 --> 1:01:39.280 Pads dumb as a rock, and he said when facing 1:01:39.320 --> 1:01:41.480 the press, Megan is the queen of talking trailer tress 1:01:41.520 --> 1:01:43.920 and posing like a porn star, and yes, we've had 1:01:43.960 --> 1:01:46.600 the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set, 1:01:46.680 --> 1:01:49.320 and yes it's very cringeable. So maybe being a porn 1:01:49.400 --> 1:01:51.360 star in the future might be a good career option. 1:01:51.440 --> 1:01:54.320 But makeup be where she has a paragraph tattooed to 1:01:54.400 --> 1:01:57.480 her backside, probably due to her rotten childhood. Easily another 1:01:57.520 --> 1:01:59.640 forty five minutes in the chair. So that was a 1:01:59.720 --> 1:02:02.960 letter that Michael Bay actually wrote, an open letter. And 1:02:03.040 --> 1:02:05.000 so I think when things like that can affect people's 1:02:05.080 --> 1:02:08.160 career later on in the future. Because Megan Fox is 1:02:08.280 --> 1:02:10.680 traumatized by certain things that happened to her, and she 1:02:10.880 --> 1:02:13.440 even said it on her own social media post, you 1:02:13.560 --> 1:02:15.720 know that there are people that she feels like need 1:02:15.800 --> 1:02:18.760 to be held accountable. Yeah, I don't know what I'm 1:02:18.800 --> 1:02:21.840 talking about content, but anyway, I'm Angela Yee and that 1:02:22.040 --> 1:02:24.800 is your rumor report. It was a public letter that 1:02:24.960 --> 1:02:27.480 he wrote about Megan I'm talking. I'm just yeah, but 1:02:27.560 --> 1:02:29.360 I'm just talking about content, and I wasn't talking about 1:02:29.400 --> 1:02:32.080 Megan Fox. I'm talking about the content that people put out. 1:02:32.480 --> 1:02:34.320 All right, Well, who are you giving your donkey too? Bro? 1:02:34.960 --> 1:02:38.200 Four after the hour, we need to have a conversation 1:02:38.280 --> 1:02:41.840 about you know, this disease on this planet that has 1:02:41.920 --> 1:02:45.400 just caused nothing but havoc on this planet since day one, 1:02:45.680 --> 1:02:48.200 and that is old white Man. We'll discuss four after 1:02:48.280 --> 1:02:50.360 the hour. All right, we'll get into that next keeping 1:02:50.400 --> 1:03:12.880 lock this to breakfast club. Good morning, Donkey, Donkey Today 1:03:12.960 --> 1:03:15.800 for Tuesday, June twenty third goes to a Laney College 1:03:15.840 --> 1:03:19.960 professor in Oakland named Matthew Hubbard. Matthew, I don't know you, 1:03:20.200 --> 1:03:22.920 but you made this weird. Okay, you made this awkward. 1:03:22.960 --> 1:03:25.520 I would think that when you are a teacher, professor, 1:03:26.120 --> 1:03:28.560 your job is to make kids comfortable. I don't care 1:03:28.560 --> 1:03:31.880 if it's college or grade school. Kids have insecurities. Everyone 1:03:31.960 --> 1:03:34.760 is trying to do their best, and you should encourage that, okay. 1:03:34.840 --> 1:03:37.400 But instead you are the adult who wants to make 1:03:37.480 --> 1:03:41.120 things awkward okay for kids and magnify whatever in the 1:03:41.280 --> 1:03:46.919 issues these young adults may have. Now, Laney College has 1:03:47.000 --> 1:03:49.880 put Matthew Hubbard on leave because he asked the kid 1:03:49.960 --> 1:03:52.360 to change their name. In fact, he told the student 1:03:52.880 --> 1:03:56.760 anglicize their name. That means to make your name English. 1:03:56.800 --> 1:03:59.200 And the reason Matthew told this student to change their 1:03:59.320 --> 1:04:02.600 name is because Matthew said it sounded like an insult 1:04:03.000 --> 1:04:06.040 in English. In fact, on the second day of class, 1:04:06.160 --> 1:04:09.960 Matthew sent an email to the student asking her verbatim 1:04:10.000 --> 1:04:13.160 to anglicize her name because it sounds like an insult 1:04:13.200 --> 1:04:17.240 in English. Oh the call Cassidy what. A student told 1:04:17.360 --> 1:04:20.600 CNA she was shocked and felt disrespected by the email, 1:04:20.680 --> 1:04:23.000 as she should have been, and that the professor had 1:04:23.040 --> 1:04:25.920 never seen her before or asked her how to pronounce 1:04:26.000 --> 1:04:29.160 her name. The student replied back and told Matthew his 1:04:29.280 --> 1:04:31.960 requests felt discriminatory and warned him she would file a 1:04:32.080 --> 1:04:34.280 complaint if he did not refer to her by her 1:04:34.320 --> 1:04:38.080 birth name. He responded by saying her name an English 1:04:38.520 --> 1:04:41.560 sounds like an insult, and then Matthew replied, if I 1:04:41.720 --> 1:04:44.360 lived in Vietnam and my name in your language sounded 1:04:44.440 --> 1:04:48.320 like Eda Dick Gregory, I would change it to avoid embarrassment. 1:04:48.440 --> 1:04:50.720 He also then repeated his request for her to change 1:04:50.760 --> 1:04:53.680 her name in his reply. Now Laney College President to 1:04:53.760 --> 1:04:56.600 mel Gilkerson said in a statement on Thursday that the 1:04:56.680 --> 1:04:59.840 college was aware of the allegations of racists and zena 1:05:00.000 --> 1:05:03.520 big messages from a faculty member at our college with 1:05:03.680 --> 1:05:06.720 a student about the pronunciation of their name. We take 1:05:06.800 --> 1:05:10.280 these allegations seriously and immediately placed the faculty member on 1:05:10.320 --> 1:05:16.640 administrative leave pending an investigation. Matthew Hubbard told The New 1:05:16.720 --> 1:05:19.120 York Times, the first email was a mistake, and I 1:05:19.240 --> 1:05:22.080 made it thinking about another student willing to anglicize. But 1:05:22.200 --> 1:05:24.600 it is a big difference with someone doing it voluntarily 1:05:24.680 --> 1:05:27.400 and asking and asking someone to do it. The second 1:05:27.440 --> 1:05:30.040 email is very offensive, and if I had waited eight hours, 1:05:30.040 --> 1:05:32.840 I would have written something very different. This is exactly 1:05:32.920 --> 1:05:36.959 why historically we call old white men the devil. Okay, 1:05:37.040 --> 1:05:39.960 this is why nobody likes old white men. Okay, Guys 1:05:40.040 --> 1:05:42.120 like this give every old white man a bad name. 1:05:42.200 --> 1:05:45.560 This is a classic case of whiteness. Okay, old white 1:05:45.600 --> 1:05:47.880 men can't help but to be racist, because when you 1:05:47.960 --> 1:05:50.640 are old white male, you have always benefited from the 1:05:50.760 --> 1:05:55.160 power that comes with privilege. Okay, the patriarchy is in 1:05:55.280 --> 1:05:57.800 your blood. Okay, it's in your blood to get a 1:05:59.560 --> 1:06:02.880 marginal lines person to change their name, because, Matthew, your 1:06:03.000 --> 1:06:05.760 ancestors with slave masters, and a slave name is the 1:06:05.800 --> 1:06:08.400 person to name given by others to an enslaved person. 1:06:08.600 --> 1:06:12.280 Our name inherited from enslaved ancestors, so you just couldn't 1:06:12.360 --> 1:06:15.000 help yourself. You wanted this young woman to change her 1:06:15.120 --> 1:06:18.600 name because you thought it sounded like an insult. Who 1:06:18.680 --> 1:06:21.160 the hell are you, white man? Okay, go trim your 1:06:21.240 --> 1:06:23.680 earheads and leave people to hell alone. Now I know 1:06:23.800 --> 1:06:28.400 you're wondering, what is this young woman's name? Okay? What 1:06:28.640 --> 1:06:32.040 what about this young woman's name? Did this old white 1:06:32.080 --> 1:06:35.240 man find so insulting? I would like to know myself, 1:06:35.400 --> 1:06:37.560 So let's go to ABC seven for the report police 1:06:37.720 --> 1:06:40.440 the Asian American Lady College freshman who was told by 1:06:40.520 --> 1:06:43.360 her professor via email to change her name to sound 1:06:43.440 --> 1:06:47.600 more anglicized. Math professor Matthew Hubbard says in emails to 1:06:47.760 --> 1:06:51.200 the student footboy Dan Winn, that her name sounded like 1:06:51.320 --> 1:06:53.760 the F word and asked her to change it now. 1:06:53.840 --> 1:06:57.440 When she declined, citing discrimination, he refused to use her 1:06:57.520 --> 1:07:01.600 given name. Hubbert declined multiple requests for an interview, but 1:07:01.760 --> 1:07:05.040 tweeted an apology to Win, whose family confirms he sent 1:07:05.120 --> 1:07:07.840 an email to her as well.

We'll kick it with 1:08:48.439 --> 1:08:50.400 John Legend when we come back. Don't move. It's the 1:08:50.439 --> 1:08:58.000 Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Pj Envy Angela yee, 1:08:58.160 --> 1:09:00.400 Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got 1:09:00.439 --> 1:09:03.640 a special guest on the line right now. Just had 1:09:03.960 --> 1:09:07.280 a great Father's day, I should say, in Father's Day Sunday, 1:09:07.360 --> 1:09:11.400 John Legend. Ladies and gentlemen, good morning, good morning, Well, 1:09:11.439 --> 1:09:14.280 how was your How was your father's day? How was that? 1:09:14.600 --> 1:09:18.439 Father's Day? Was good? Christie surprised me. She had a 1:09:18.920 --> 1:09:21.800 catered dinner in the backyard just for me, and she 1:09:22.640 --> 1:09:26.040 cheated me like a king. It was nice. What is 1:09:26.080 --> 1:09:28.640 it like to release an album? In this time in 1:09:28.720 --> 1:09:31.160 these days. Well it's different. You know. We used to 1:09:31.280 --> 1:09:33.959 being out like we used to going out the Loute promotion, 1:09:34.320 --> 1:09:38.240 so everything is different, but we're making it work. Can 1:09:38.280 --> 1:09:41.000 you put out music that doesn't that isn't a soundtrack 1:09:41.080 --> 1:09:43.200 for what's going on right now? Though? Yeah, you know 1:09:43.400 --> 1:09:46.000 I thought about that because I was writing it before 1:09:46.040 --> 1:09:49.280 all this stuff happened. I wrote it mostly in twenty nineteen. 1:09:49.600 --> 1:09:52.320 I wrote a few joints, like in January and February 1:09:52.720 --> 1:09:55.880 of this year, and then I was done writing, and 1:09:55.920 --> 1:09:58.479 I felt like I had a dope album by you know, 1:09:58.920 --> 1:10:01.719 beginning of March, and and soon as March comes around, 1:10:01.800 --> 1:10:05.120 everybody's on lockdown and the whole world change. So the 1:10:05.200 --> 1:10:07.040 question is do you scrap all of that and try 1:10:07.120 --> 1:10:11.000 to make something that's right in this moment, or do 1:10:11.080 --> 1:10:13.360 you get people what you've made, you know, which is 1:10:13.560 --> 1:10:15.719 what I made. It was an album that's more loving 1:10:15.800 --> 1:10:19.439 and joyful and hopeful. I think it was great marketing 1:10:19.479 --> 1:10:21.200 to actually do the verses on the same day that 1:10:21.240 --> 1:10:24.960 the album came out. It makes perfect sense because yeah, 1:10:25.200 --> 1:10:28.559 I mean, it's been clear that every every versus has 1:10:28.600 --> 1:10:32.160 been good for the artists, you know, just to. You know, 1:10:32.439 --> 1:10:34.360 a lot of the artists, you know, haven't been making 1:10:35.439 --> 1:10:37.840 a lot of new music, so it brought them back 1:10:37.880 --> 1:10:40.800 to people's attention. And Alicia, we're kind of different because 1:10:40.800 --> 1:10:43.879 we're still making music these days and still making releases 1:10:43.920 --> 1:10:47.240 and all this stuff. But most of my verses I spent, 1:10:47.479 --> 1:10:49.240 you know, educating people on what I had done in 1:10:49.280 --> 1:10:53.040 the past, you know, many years ago. Some of the 1:10:53.080 --> 1:10:55.880 stuff I played was from nineteen ninety nine, two thousand 1:10:55.880 --> 1:10:58.960 and three, you know, just letting people know that I 1:10:59.120 --> 1:11:01.280 was behind the scenes doing my thing. Even before you 1:11:01.400 --> 1:11:04.120 first heard Get Lifted. Yeah, I didn't know that you 1:11:04.280 --> 1:11:06.960 was on Everything Is Everything? Yeah, that was the first 1:11:07.000 --> 1:11:11.160 record I ever played on. How Lauren find Who? How 1:11:11.200 --> 1:11:13.160 did that come about? So there was a girl named 1:11:13.320 --> 1:11:15.960 Tera Michelle. I was directing this church choir while I 1:11:16.040 --> 1:11:18.040 was in college, so part of the way I paid 1:11:18.240 --> 1:11:21.960 for like my experienses in schools, I was the director 1:11:22.000 --> 1:11:25.280 of music at this church and one of the choir 1:11:25.400 --> 1:11:28.680 members was a girl who had gone to school with 1:11:28.800 --> 1:11:31.320 Lauren Hill. And she was like, I'm about to go 1:11:31.400 --> 1:11:34.800 to the studio. She's working on her solo album. Do 1:11:34.880 --> 1:11:37.280 you want to come to the studio with me, and 1:11:37.439 --> 1:11:41.559 so I was this studio with her and just chilling 1:11:41.640 --> 1:11:43.600 literally not trying to get in the way, you know. 1:11:44.080 --> 1:11:46.080 She was like, John, won't you played a couple of 1:11:46.120 --> 1:11:48.880 songs for her because I want her to hear you 1:11:48.960 --> 1:11:53.080 know what you can do. And so I played one 1:11:53.120 --> 1:11:55.479 of my own songs, a song called too Late, and 1:11:55.560 --> 1:11:59.200 then I played a Stevie Wonders song and then she's 1:11:59.240 --> 1:12:01.000 like one of Lauren was like, why don't you play 1:12:01.000 --> 1:12:03.040 on this record we're working on now? So I played 1:12:03.080 --> 1:12:05.639 piano on the record and that was the first major 1:12:06.000 --> 1:12:09.120 recording and a partum. Wow did you do it for free? 1:12:09.479 --> 1:12:12.280 I got five hundred dollars and my name is in 1:12:12.320 --> 1:12:18.280 the credit on a classic album exactly, I was. I 1:12:18.400 --> 1:12:22.439 was very happy with that. That's all I needed. Now, 1:12:22.560 --> 1:12:24.679 let's talk about the versus bat a little bit, because 1:12:24.680 --> 1:12:26.960 obviously you and Alicia Keys have worked together. You guys 1:12:27.000 --> 1:12:29.320 are friends. So how did y'all even decide? Because I 1:12:29.400 --> 1:12:31.400 know you both had been talking about it for quite 1:12:31.479 --> 1:12:33.800 some time and we kind of had a feeling it 1:12:33.920 --> 1:12:37.280 was going to happen. So what solidified that? Well, I 1:12:37.840 --> 1:12:41.200 was doing radio for my new music, and I think 1:12:41.240 --> 1:12:45.599 I was talking to Nick Cannon and he was like, well, 1:12:45.600 --> 1:12:48.439 who would you who would you do a versus me? 1:12:49.280 --> 1:12:50.600 And I was like, I feel like the one that 1:12:50.640 --> 1:12:53.120 would make the most sense will be Alicia Keys And 1:12:53.280 --> 1:12:56.679 I said, in fact, I think we should play it live. 1:12:56.880 --> 1:12:58.560 You know. I was like, you know, do some of 1:12:58.600 --> 1:13:03.719 the songs on the piano, piano to piano. UM. Swizz 1:13:03.760 --> 1:13:08.120 and Alicia saw it, and and uh, Swizz hit me up. 1:13:08.280 --> 1:13:10.160 He called me and then we talked about it, and 1:13:11.000 --> 1:13:13.240 and that was it. I was like, my bad for 1:13:13.400 --> 1:13:18.720 calling your wife out in public, but you know it 1:13:18.800 --> 1:13:21.639 would be good, so let's let's good. And uh, everybody 1:13:21.800 --> 1:13:23.920 was into it. And we knew from the beginning that 1:13:24.080 --> 1:13:26.680 it was all love because we really respect each other, 1:13:26.960 --> 1:13:29.720 and uh, we just wanted it to be a celebration. 1:13:30.200 --> 1:13:32.880 What did y'all say about What did you say about 1:13:32.880 --> 1:13:35.040 Teddy Raley's Wifeire you said something because Teddy Raley was 1:13:35.040 --> 1:13:36.800 like John Legend is old jokes? What did you say 1:13:36.840 --> 1:13:40.559 about Teddy Wholey's wildfire? Y'all gotta leave Teddy Raley alone? Man, 1:13:41.560 --> 1:13:44.320 I just I just when I had a technical moment 1:13:44.760 --> 1:13:48.000 because of the track wasn't playing properly. I don't want 1:13:48.040 --> 1:13:50.240 to do a Teddy Raley here, all of just playing 1:13:50.280 --> 1:13:53.880 with him. You know, I love Teddy and uh he 1:13:54.000 --> 1:13:56.599 had had We had a rough time getting it together 1:13:56.760 --> 1:14:00.320 sometimes for the for the Bird's Battle, but I think 1:14:00.600 --> 1:14:03.360 Swizz and everybody have worked it out so everybody, you know, 1:14:03.479 --> 1:14:06.639 everybody's technical aspect of a little more on point now 1:14:06.720 --> 1:14:08.720 and they had a set up so there were no 1:14:09.280 --> 1:14:12.599 major problems. I know it was all love, but who one? 1:14:12.640 --> 1:14:14.080 Who do you think one? Because I'm not gonna lie. 1:14:14.120 --> 1:14:16.639 I picked Alicia to watch you. I picked the Leisia 1:14:16.680 --> 1:14:19.240 not because you're not super talented, John, but just Alicia 1:14:19.320 --> 1:14:22.639 got a lot of records. Alicia has a lot of records. 1:14:22.800 --> 1:14:26.400 I think she has more solo hits than I have. 1:14:26.680 --> 1:14:29.040 But I think what I was able to show people 1:14:29.160 --> 1:14:31.960 was I was doing records that they didn't even know 1:14:32.120 --> 1:14:34.479 I was a part of. And I think that's what 1:14:34.600 --> 1:14:36.639 the cool thing about Versus is is you could show 1:14:36.680 --> 1:14:39.280 people behind the scenes work you did as well. And 1:14:39.400 --> 1:14:42.120 so I think, you know, people are gonna judge what 1:14:42.200 --> 1:14:44.439 they were to judge, and so you let the people decide. 1:14:44.640 --> 1:14:48.080 But I thought it was fairly even, and I loved 1:14:48.120 --> 1:14:50.080 our collaborations. I just thought it was a good night 1:14:50.280 --> 1:14:53.120 for music. It was it was dope looking back out there. 1:14:53.200 --> 1:14:55.360 Some songs you're like, man, I missed this one, or 1:14:55.360 --> 1:14:59.040 I should have played this one. Also not really, Honestly, 1:14:59.080 --> 1:15:00.920 I felt like I played the right song. There's like 1:15:01.160 --> 1:15:03.120 one or two that were on the bubble for me 1:15:03.240 --> 1:15:04.760 that I could have played one or the other, but 1:15:04.920 --> 1:15:06.519 I didn't feel like it would have made a big difference. 1:15:06.520 --> 1:15:09.320 I feel like the I picked the right joint. Listen, John, 1:15:09.560 --> 1:15:11.680 let's talk about the new album You Got Bigger Love. 1:15:11.760 --> 1:15:14.160 What does that phrase mean to you? It's uh, well, 1:15:14.200 --> 1:15:16.479 the album is joyful. It is full of love and 1:15:17.320 --> 1:15:21.680 songs about you know, um, resilience and hope and just 1:15:21.880 --> 1:15:24.160 making it work through all the challenges. I was gonna 1:15:24.160 --> 1:15:26.200 ask you with Chrissy, I see y'all play a lot. 1:15:26.479 --> 1:15:28.200 Does it ever go too far? Black Baby? You're going 1:15:28.240 --> 1:15:29.920 too far. You called me, you call me that name, 1:15:30.000 --> 1:15:32.080 and enough is enough. You can't be calling me names 1:15:32.120 --> 1:15:34.479 like that. She calls you, she calls she calls you 1:15:34.560 --> 1:15:37.680 a bitch a lot, John, Gee, she does not call 1:15:37.760 --> 1:15:41.519 me a bit a lot. Talking about when when she 1:15:41.760 --> 1:15:44.640 was when she was mad about the song lyric as 1:15:44.720 --> 1:15:50.160 she she said bitch to me and come on now, 1:15:50.640 --> 1:15:52.320 you can't say it to her though, Let's be clear, 1:15:53.920 --> 1:15:56.600 it's a whole another story. But that that is not 1:15:56.760 --> 1:15:59.040 a that is not a normal part of our conversation, 1:16:02.360 --> 1:16:08.439 not even in the bedroom. If y'all getting spicy, No, no, never, 1:16:08.560 --> 1:16:13.439 like she's never like, yeah, bitch. I was gonna talk 1:16:13.439 --> 1:16:15.320 about the album. I was gonna say, I like how 1:16:15.360 --> 1:16:17.479 you started it off with a nice little throwback to 1:16:17.720 --> 1:16:20.920 duop sounds. I thought that was really sweet, So, well, 1:16:20.960 --> 1:16:23.120 what made you decide to do that? Well, that's all 1:16:23.880 --> 1:16:27.439 Oakfelder produced, And when we talked about he was like, 1:16:27.479 --> 1:16:30.840 we should do a song where duop meets trap, and 1:16:31.080 --> 1:16:34.080 so we got some a oas. We got the duop 1:16:34.200 --> 1:16:37.559 vocals that I Only have Eyes for You sample in first. 1:16:37.680 --> 1:16:40.760 It's just a perfect track to open up the album. 1:16:40.840 --> 1:16:43.880 It's fresh, it feels good, it's sexy, and it's a 1:16:43.960 --> 1:16:46.439 beautiful beginning to the album. All right, we got more 1:16:46.479 --> 1:16:48.559 with John Legend when we come back, Don't Move. It's 1:16:48.560 --> 1:16:52.519 to Breakfast Club. Good Morning Morning, everybody is DJ Envy, 1:16:52.760 --> 1:16:55.720 Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all the Breakfast Club 1:16:55.800 --> 1:16:58.840 was still kicking with John legend Charlomagne. You know, in 1:16:59.160 --> 1:17:02.360 early June, John you said your friendship with Kanye West 1:17:02.880 --> 1:17:06.760 has evolved? What what? What? What? What does that mean? Well, 1:17:06.800 --> 1:17:08.439 I was just saying we're in a different place now 1:17:08.520 --> 1:17:11.600 because I'm not I had a five album deal with 1:17:11.800 --> 1:17:15.920 Good Music and that deals. Uh, so we don't have 1:17:16.080 --> 1:17:20.880 a direct business relationship anymore. And then, um, he's up 1:17:20.960 --> 1:17:23.439 in my only most of the time and we're still cool, 1:17:23.520 --> 1:17:25.560 but we just don't see each other that much for 1:17:25.680 --> 1:17:28.400 work or you know, we're not living in the same place. Yeah. 1:17:28.439 --> 1:17:30.439 They was trying to make it about your politics being 1:17:30.520 --> 1:17:34.000 so different. Yeah, and our politics have been different for 1:17:34.040 --> 1:17:36.640 a while now, and that that is what it is. 1:17:37.080 --> 1:17:39.799 As you can tell from my boys. I'm not shy about, 1:17:39.960 --> 1:17:42.800 you know, being proud of the work we did together, 1:17:42.840 --> 1:17:46.240 because we did some great work together. Absolutely, you think 1:17:46.280 --> 1:17:49.240 you could become friends with somebody now who's a Trump supporter, 1:17:49.400 --> 1:17:51.160 Like if you think you would be like real cool 1:17:51.240 --> 1:17:53.920 with somebody who's a huge Trump supporter, Um, I mean 1:17:54.160 --> 1:17:56.479 a new friend. It'd be different to make a new 1:17:56.560 --> 1:17:59.040 friend that somebody like me and Kanye got so much history. 1:17:59.080 --> 1:18:01.559 It's like you don't just get rid of a friendship 1:18:01.600 --> 1:18:06.560 because of but start anew and I don't know have 1:18:06.720 --> 1:18:09.200 y'all ever gotten not from the secret service? Y'all be 1:18:09.280 --> 1:18:12.240 going hard on Twitter sometimes, Well, y'all used to We 1:18:12.400 --> 1:18:15.080 never threatened his life. We never said anything about his 1:18:15.479 --> 1:18:18.360 you know, anything about his life. We just just just 1:18:18.680 --> 1:18:24.000 uh demeans his character because he has no no character. Yeah, 1:18:24.479 --> 1:18:26.439 now your wife has definitely called the president of bitch. 1:18:26.840 --> 1:18:35.639 Oh yeah, bitch. When you when your when your five 1:18:35.680 --> 1:18:38.439 album deal was up, I'm sure they made a play 1:18:38.479 --> 1:18:42.200 to resign you, right. No, you know, when you're signed 1:18:42.280 --> 1:18:45.880 to produce your production company at that point in your career, 1:18:46.040 --> 1:18:49.000 you're like, you're just like you're in a different power 1:18:49.080 --> 1:18:52.000 position at that point in your career. And partly due 1:18:52.000 --> 1:18:53.880 to the fact that Kanye helped blow me up, I 1:18:53.960 --> 1:18:55.280 was in a position where I didn't have to sign 1:18:55.560 --> 1:18:59.160 to anybody's production company. I could just do my own deal. Um, 1:18:59.680 --> 1:19:02.840 So you know, there was never any doubts that I 1:19:02.880 --> 1:19:06.320 would just sign my own deal after that five albums 1:19:06.439 --> 1:19:08.639 was up. But like I said, I wouldn't be where 1:19:08.640 --> 1:19:11.439 I am without doing that deal with Kanye. So I'm 1:19:11.680 --> 1:19:13.840 having no regrets. What do you what is your thoughts 1:19:13.840 --> 1:19:15.360 on the word urban now that they're not going to 1:19:15.479 --> 1:19:17.760 use that at the Grammys anymore. You know, I just 1:19:17.840 --> 1:19:20.640 felt like urban was it was like talking around what 1:19:20.720 --> 1:19:22.200 you were trying to say. I didn't think it was 1:19:22.280 --> 1:19:24.360 racist or anything. I just always thought it was like 1:19:24.960 --> 1:19:26.320 kind of saying what you were trying to say, but 1:19:26.439 --> 1:19:29.400 not really saying it. Using urban as a as a 1:19:29.960 --> 1:19:34.200 replacement for flat just always felt imprecise to me. So 1:19:34.320 --> 1:19:36.160 I feel like, just call it what it is. If 1:19:36.160 --> 1:19:38.120 it's black music, you call and it, just call it 1:19:38.200 --> 1:19:40.839 black music. If it's R and B or a soul 1:19:41.040 --> 1:19:44.760 or reggae or any other our music that we made 1:19:44.880 --> 1:19:48.280 hip hop, call it what it is. It's this love 1:19:48.360 --> 1:19:52.160 of blackness that we're seeing from these corporations and music industry. 1:19:52.360 --> 1:19:53.960 Do you think it's gonna last? You think it's just 1:19:54.040 --> 1:19:55.920 a trend? Well, I think some of it it's just 1:19:56.040 --> 1:20:00.280 a trend um. I think everybody's feeling the pressure right 1:20:00.320 --> 1:20:04.600 now because people are protesting, people are seeing you know, 1:20:05.080 --> 1:20:09.280 horrific videos, are people getting suffocated in the streets and 1:20:09.479 --> 1:20:13.200 all that. So there is clear outrage and there's clear 1:20:13.640 --> 1:20:16.839 there's a clear moment where people are really paying attention 1:20:17.160 --> 1:20:19.839 to black lives I feel like some of these companies 1:20:19.960 --> 1:20:24.919 will do these little statements and do these little Instagram 1:20:25.000 --> 1:20:27.799 posts or whatever, and then go about their regular business. 1:20:28.000 --> 1:20:31.400 But hopefully some of them will actually change. And to me, 1:20:31.600 --> 1:20:35.439 change looks like actually hiring black people and other people 1:20:35.479 --> 1:20:39.040 of color having their voices heard in the executives week. 1:20:39.240 --> 1:20:44.200 We need to see like actual inclusion inside the places 1:20:44.240 --> 1:20:46.640 where the decisions are being made, where the budgets are 1:20:46.680 --> 1:20:49.920 being determined and the money is being spent, not in 1:20:49.920 --> 1:20:52.360 an Instagram post. So how do we make that happen? Though? 1:20:52.400 --> 1:20:55.200 Because you know, I believe hope is not a strategy. 1:20:55.280 --> 1:20:58.320 You believe hope is a strategy. Hope is the fuel, 1:20:58.479 --> 1:21:01.320 I think, part of the fuel you use to get 1:21:01.360 --> 1:21:03.960 the work done, because hope means you believe that if 1:21:04.000 --> 1:21:07.120 I keep working at something, we'll get it done. And 1:21:07.280 --> 1:21:11.040 so I think we still have to keep pressuring these companies, 1:21:11.120 --> 1:21:14.240 the governments, all of them, to do the right thing. 1:21:14.880 --> 1:21:21.000 And that requires tenacity, it requires vigilance, it requires transparency, data, 1:21:21.120 --> 1:21:23.640 all these things. Hope it's part of it. If you 1:21:23.720 --> 1:21:26.240 look at what the activists, you know, people that started 1:21:26.280 --> 1:21:30.040 Black Lives Matter, and you know other organizations have been doing. 1:21:30.360 --> 1:21:33.400 They've been actually working on this stuff, you know, when 1:21:33.479 --> 1:21:36.160 nobody's really paying attention, and so they were ready for 1:21:36.240 --> 1:21:40.120 this moment. And so that means we have to stay vigilant. 1:21:41.120 --> 1:21:44.840 We have to continue to organize and be activists and 1:21:44.880 --> 1:21:47.720 speak up. And it's not a big moment like this. 1:21:48.360 --> 1:21:50.160 We've seen you guys give a couple of hundred thousand 1:21:50.200 --> 1:21:52.240 to the protests that were locked up to make sure 1:21:52.320 --> 1:21:54.559 that their lawyers and bail were taken care of. Yeah, 1:21:54.680 --> 1:21:56.960 we gave a bail fund. We also gave to the 1:21:57.040 --> 1:22:00.320 Movement for Black Lives and then I always give to 1:22:00.720 --> 1:22:06.480 other organizations that are supporting ending mass criminalization, massive carceration, 1:22:07.080 --> 1:22:10.160 and that's an ongoing thing for us and for me particularly. 1:22:10.439 --> 1:22:13.719 Have you ever had any rats with the police yourself? Personally, 1:22:14.040 --> 1:22:18.240 I have had running. We've nothing termed violent, but like 1:22:18.479 --> 1:22:21.200 when I was in college, they would just stop me 1:22:21.280 --> 1:22:24.160 for no reason. It's just having to prove that we're 1:22:24.240 --> 1:22:27.000 not a criminal. It gets frustrating sometimes and you can 1:22:27.360 --> 1:22:31.200 understand why sometimes brothers will resist because it's like it's 1:22:31.320 --> 1:22:35.560 ongoing indignity of having to prove that you should in 1:22:35.640 --> 1:22:38.479 the places where you exist, and that You're not a threat, 1:22:38.880 --> 1:22:40.960 and I've definitely had to deal with it myself. Y'all 1:22:41.080 --> 1:22:43.840 go ask how this quarantine slowed things down at your TV, 1:22:44.080 --> 1:22:47.200 your TV and film production company. You got a very 1:22:47.240 --> 1:22:51.559 successful production company. I don't know, people know, Yeah, get lifted. Um. 1:22:52.000 --> 1:22:54.519 We've been putting out some great stuff. We were co 1:22:54.720 --> 1:23:00.160 produced on the Specialist Night. We produced a documentary that 1:23:00.439 --> 1:23:03.200 series that was on HBO called Atlanta's Missing and Murdered 1:23:03.439 --> 1:23:06.240 about the Atlanta child murders. And we have some great 1:23:06.240 --> 1:23:09.880 stuff that we're working on. We have We were going 1:23:10.000 --> 1:23:13.800 to start Rhythm and Flow a little earlier this year, 1:23:13.880 --> 1:23:15.559 but we've had to push that back a little bit 1:23:15.600 --> 1:23:18.200 because we have season two of Rhythm and Flow coming 1:23:19.560 --> 1:23:22.439 soon as soon as we can get all the production happening. 1:23:22.800 --> 1:23:25.679 So you know, some things were delayed, but we're still 1:23:25.760 --> 1:23:27.960 moving and we're still excited about what we have going. 1:23:28.360 --> 1:23:32.280 Of course, Sherman's Showcase was our comedy music show that 1:23:32.880 --> 1:23:35.560 we did a Black History months in June special that 1:23:35.680 --> 1:23:38.680 aired on Friday as well, and then we just got 1:23:38.760 --> 1:23:40.920 announced that we got picked up for season two for that, 1:23:41.360 --> 1:23:43.840 so we're excited about that. So we got a lot 1:23:43.880 --> 1:23:45.880 of things happening, and I'm excited to all the work. 1:23:46.640 --> 1:23:49.120 What happened to the Black Wall screen project with Tika Something, 1:23:49.120 --> 1:23:51.200 because now I see like it's like three Black Wall 1:23:51.240 --> 1:23:54.600 screed documentaries coming out. What happened with that exactly? We 1:23:54.720 --> 1:23:57.960 were just talking about that with Hulu because we had 1:23:58.040 --> 1:24:00.800 originally planned to do it with Hulu and then it 1:24:00.840 --> 1:24:03.920 didn't get picked up, and we literally just wrote the 1:24:03.960 --> 1:24:06.599 email to our exact same who were like, yo, y'all 1:24:06.600 --> 1:24:09.200 got to pick us up. This is very relevant right 1:24:09.280 --> 1:24:12.439 now and it needs to be told, and so we're 1:24:12.479 --> 1:24:16.240 gonna try to resuscitate that. Did Hulu reply? We got 1:24:16.560 --> 1:24:19.320 a nice reply. We got nice when I emailed somebody, 1:24:19.400 --> 1:24:22.920 they reply yeah, okay, okay, okay, they want to work 1:24:24.000 --> 1:24:25.920 all right, Well, thank you John Legend for checking in. 1:24:26.000 --> 1:24:30.240 We appreciate you. Your albums out right now, Big a Love, Yes, Yes, 1:24:30.439 --> 1:24:33.920 thank you for joining us, brother, thank you all right here, 1:24:33.960 --> 1:24:37.599 it's the Breakfast Club. It's John Legend, the Breakfast Club. 1:24:43.479 --> 1:24:46.560 She's filling the team. This is the rumor report with 1:24:46.760 --> 1:24:51.680 Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, NBC Universal is 1:24:51.720 --> 1:24:55.120 removing four episodes of thirty Rock from streaming services and 1:24:55.200 --> 1:24:59.840 syndication because characters had black face. Now they remove these 1:25:00.000 --> 1:25:02.800 at the request of Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, who 1:25:02.840 --> 1:25:06.040 are the show's co creators. Tina Fey released a statement, 1:25:06.120 --> 1:25:07.679 as we strive to do the work and do better 1:25:07.720 --> 1:25:10.120 in regards to race in America, we believe that these 1:25:10.160 --> 1:25:13.000 episodes featuring actors in a race changing makeup are best 1:25:13.040 --> 1:25:16.840 taken out of circulation. I understand now that intent is 1:25:16.880 --> 1:25:19.160 not a free pass for white people to use these images. 1:25:19.200 --> 1:25:22.120 I apologize for pain they have caused. Going forward, no 1:25:22.240 --> 1:25:24.760 comedy loving kidneys to stumble on these tropes and be 1:25:24.880 --> 1:25:28.160 stung by their ugliness. I think NBC Universal for honoring 1:25:28.240 --> 1:25:30.920 this request. And there you have it. And we've already 1:25:30.960 --> 1:25:33.200 told you about Gone with the Wind being removed from 1:25:33.320 --> 1:25:36.280 HBO Max, and they're going to return that to the 1:25:36.320 --> 1:25:39.679 streaming services with a disclaimer about historical context as well. 1:25:40.400 --> 1:25:44.800 All right, Blake Griffin has recalled experiencing racism in a 1:25:44.880 --> 1:25:47.240 high school and you kind of look back and be like, oh, 1:25:47.280 --> 1:25:49.360 that was pretty racist. This was an episode of arm 1:25:49.479 --> 1:25:51.679 Chair Expert with Dak Shepherd as the host. And listen 1:25:51.720 --> 1:25:54.679 to this. So my parents did a really, really, really 1:25:54.760 --> 1:25:58.360 good job of just rising above it. And so there's 1:25:58.400 --> 1:26:01.560 situations that my brother and back now and we're like, 1:26:02.040 --> 1:26:04.080 oh wow, that was like that was racist, you know 1:26:04.120 --> 1:26:06.960 what I mean? Like where because my parents didn't give 1:26:07.000 --> 1:26:10.760 it the power, it didn't affect us either, which I 1:26:10.920 --> 1:26:13.240 didn't realize what was happening at the time. But remember 1:26:13.320 --> 1:26:15.560 girls in like high school saying, oh, I like you, 1:26:15.640 --> 1:26:17.160 I like you thaying and they're like, I like you too, 1:26:17.240 --> 1:26:19.400 but like I can't, I can never date you. I'm like, 1:26:19.479 --> 1:26:21.720 you're like why, Like my dad will let me. He's right, 1:26:22.200 --> 1:26:25.320 I'm sure everybody has had those experiences. Hell, it's been 1:26:26.040 --> 1:26:28.759 If you read uh Bobby Brown's book, Janet Jackson wouldn't 1:26:28.760 --> 1:26:30.920 bring Bobby Brown home because she said Joe wouldn't want 1:26:30.920 --> 1:26:33.720 her to bring a black man home. What happens, Yeah, 1:26:33.760 --> 1:26:36.200 Blake Griffin. His mother's white, his father is black. And 1:26:36.280 --> 1:26:40.240 this was while growing up in Oklahoma. So I have mercy, 1:26:40.920 --> 1:26:44.479 all right. Fortnite has has removed cop cars from their 1:26:44.600 --> 1:26:48.920 game amid police protests. So the Shooter Survivra video game 1:26:49.000 --> 1:26:53.000 has removed those cars, and they were you know. Fortnite 1:26:53.000 --> 1:26:55.759 obviously is a super popular game. Even I played Fortnite 1:26:55.800 --> 1:26:58.559 at some point. Now players never used the police vehicles. 1:26:58.600 --> 1:27:01.080 They were just for decoration. So this just remove those 1:27:01.360 --> 1:27:06.000 from the game period. What why? That's getting kind of crazy, 1:27:06.520 --> 1:27:09.760 getting kind of ridiculous, like like what's next. You're gonna 1:27:09.760 --> 1:27:13.960 cancel Paul Patrol? No, they better not. They definitely gonna 1:27:13.960 --> 1:27:15.840 cancel Paul Patrol. They better not. If they know what 1:27:15.920 --> 1:27:19.360 I know, they better not. It's only a matter of time. 1:27:19.560 --> 1:27:21.400 Well let's do us. Told the Wall Street Journal, I 1:27:21.439 --> 1:27:23.800 wouldn't say it's a political statement. I think it's just 1:27:23.960 --> 1:27:26.160 as being sensitive about the issues many people in our 1:27:26.200 --> 1:27:30.400 audience are dealing with. You need some sort of law enforcement. Though, 1:27:30.479 --> 1:27:33.360 you need some sort of law enforcement. You just can't 1:27:33.439 --> 1:27:37.599 have uh no police officers. It'll be anarchy in these streets. 1:27:37.640 --> 1:27:39.280 Like if somebody breaking into your house right now, who 1:27:39.280 --> 1:27:41.640 are you gonna call ghostbusters? No, you're gonna call a 1:27:41.680 --> 1:27:44.960 goddamn police. Okay, So so you need some type of 1:27:45.080 --> 1:27:46.960 law and order. You just need you just need a 1:27:47.080 --> 1:27:50.200 better form of law and order. The police need a reform. 1:27:50.520 --> 1:27:52.280 And I hate people that say, no, it ain't cooling. 1:27:52.720 --> 1:27:54.639 Who are you gonna call him? Who you're gonna call somebody? 1:27:54.640 --> 1:27:59.120 Breaking Houn. Call stop, it's a damn lie, stop all right. 1:27:59.280 --> 1:28:03.240 Singer Marie says that he recalls being stopped by Miami police, 1:28:03.600 --> 1:28:06.400 and he said he was held at gunpoint until a 1:28:06.479 --> 1:28:09.840 female officer recognized him. Now, he said, three months ago, 1:28:09.920 --> 1:28:11.800 he was driving in Miami with a friend who has 1:28:11.840 --> 1:28:13.920 a license to carry a can seal gun, and his 1:28:14.000 --> 1:28:16.040 friend got into an argument with another man. He said, 1:28:16.040 --> 1:28:17.400 my friend pulled out a gun and so did the 1:28:17.479 --> 1:28:19.680 other guy, so I got out to defuse the situation. 1:28:20.120 --> 1:28:22.160 He said he managed to calm everyone down. The other 1:28:22.200 --> 1:28:24.599 guy with the gun eventually left. He said, my boy 1:28:24.720 --> 1:28:26.599 got in his car, he put his gun in the armrest, 1:28:26.640 --> 1:28:28.519 and then he went to his building to use the 1:28:28.600 --> 1:28:31.160 bathroom and left the gun. But Mario said he didn't 1:28:31.200 --> 1:28:33.760 realize somebody had called the police. They had witnessed the 1:28:33.760 --> 1:28:36.479 altercation called the police. He said, two cops came up 1:28:36.520 --> 1:28:39.240 to the car with their guns drawn, shouting. He said, 1:28:39.240 --> 1:28:40.960 I forgot about the gun that was in the arm wrest, 1:28:41.000 --> 1:28:42.400 and when they asked me if there were any guns 1:28:42.439 --> 1:28:44.120 in the car, said no, there's no guns in the car. 1:28:44.200 --> 1:28:46.360 The officers then told him not to move and he 1:28:46.439 --> 1:28:48.560 put his hands up and the cops said, there's a 1:28:48.640 --> 1:28:50.320 gun right there. Why did you lie to me? And 1:28:50.439 --> 1:28:52.760 he was trying to explain. But then that's when the 1:28:52.840 --> 1:28:54.679 woman who was a cop appeared and said, wait, aren't 1:28:54.680 --> 1:28:58.160 to Mario and he was like yeah, and he told them, 1:28:58.240 --> 1:29:02.639 don't shoot. And so he said he did experience racism, 1:29:02.680 --> 1:29:05.280 but he says, I've also experienced privilege as an artist. 1:29:05.360 --> 1:29:07.400 As an artist, I would say we do have privilege, 1:29:07.400 --> 1:29:09.960 whether it's sports, entertainment. We see power in all these 1:29:10.000 --> 1:29:13.840 different spaces. But with that also comes privilege. Oh yeah, 1:29:14.479 --> 1:29:18.000 he's right. Yeah. Dave Chappelle talked about it getting pulled 1:29:18.040 --> 1:29:20.280 over and the cop was like, oh, you're Dave Chappelle. 1:29:20.360 --> 1:29:23.720 Will know who you are. That's the fact, all right. 1:29:23.800 --> 1:29:28.200 Nicki Minaj has congratulated the barbs because Trolls is number 1:29:28.280 --> 1:29:31.720 one on Billboard's Hot one hundred Songs chart this week. 1:29:32.120 --> 1:29:34.560 Here's what you had to say. Y'all did this with 1:29:34.760 --> 1:29:37.920 no playlist thing and no radio so for us to 1:29:38.080 --> 1:29:41.760 do that debuting, that's insane. So I love you guys 1:29:41.840 --> 1:29:45.280 so much. We just did the highest pure sales of 1:29:45.400 --> 1:29:47.720 the year. So yeah. The one thing she does want 1:29:47.760 --> 1:29:49.160 to get off her chest though, is things that have 1:29:49.280 --> 1:29:51.360 been going on in this industry for just way too 1:29:51.439 --> 1:29:54.679 long as well. Yeah, like them, love them going number 1:29:54.720 --> 1:29:57.000 one with no radio play and no real support. That's 1:29:57.120 --> 1:29:59.920 that's big congratulations to them. All right.
