It was called Charlamage and Friends. 50 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: We did a six episode run. We didn't even have 51 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: a real name for it. You did a little six 52 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: episode run called Charlottage and Friends, and that turned the 53 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: uncommon sense. But go back and watch that show, right, 54 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: go back and watch Charlamagne and Friends. Why because every 55 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: week I would have three people on you know what 56 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: I mean? 57 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 3: First episode it was ice Cube. 58 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 2: You would try and people you and then what was 59 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 2: that the same one you were just trying Twitter people? 60 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 3: No, that was the second that was that was the evolution. 61 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: That was Charlamane Friends. 62 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: The first episode was ice Cube, Kevin Hart and Tika 63 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: something because ride along with that and I had like 64 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: a real small part and right along. But every week 65 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: I would have my actual people on that show, people 66 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: that weren't who they are now, the Pete Davidson's you 67 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Alisha Orne, who you're about to 68 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: hear a lot more from in the future, like all 69 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: these like Tennisian law, these people that you know evolved 70 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: to grow into these people that you see now, right, 71 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: And then Charlotage friends turned the uncommon sense. 72 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 2: Uncommon sense was the one man. Now what was MTV 73 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: at in this time? Like I'm saying, TV was a 74 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 2: whole of the network. 75 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: So MTV two was the small network that my man 76 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: Christ MacCarthy used to run through. The Christ McCarthy, he's 77 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: the big dog over at Paramount now. But Christ McCarthy, 78 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: Paul Richie, uh, Candida Clemens was over there. My girl 79 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: Tiffany Wims, she was at MTV, but she's the one 80 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: who brought us into the system to begin with. 81 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: But and this is what you need too, somebody to 82 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: bring you into the system. That's right. 83 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 3: MTV two didn't have no original programming. Guide Cold was 84 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: that's in the fact, God Called. 85 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: Was the second original programming that they ever had. I 86 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: think the first was MTV Sucker Free and then we 87 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: used to host and then I started. 88 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 2: Holding Now did they did they have proper funding and 89 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 2: all of that? That, Like, what the what did MTV 90 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: to look like? We was getting paid pennies back then. 91 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: Remember I remember when when they came to me in 92 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: twenty twelve twenty thirteen and asked me to do an 93 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: overall deal, which is a television deal with them. I 94 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: was getting paid fifty five grand a year because because 95 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: in my mind, I was like, what they want me 96 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: to do TV for? 97 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 2: I'm the radio guy, right, you know. 98 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: And they didn't even make and by the way, they 99 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: didn't even know what it is they wanted me to do. 100 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: They just wanted me to sign to the network as 101 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: the talent, which I did, and Guy Cold ended up 102 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: being the first show. And if you go back and 103 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: you watch gud Cold, now the biggest person on Guy 104 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: Cold at that time was Donnelle Rowlins.

Yeah, but 111 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: then Charlamage and friends involved in the Uncommon Sense. Man, 112 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: if you go look at the people we had on 113 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: Uncommon Sense, Loni I used to have Das and Mari 114 00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: in every episode. 115 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 2: Demeri never did TV before they went and warranted a 116 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: big deal.

You know that was her song 175 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: I'm like this girl. 176 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 2: They even actually said that Charlote might be getting paid. 177 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: He was right, was saying I'll get big. I got 178 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: to check from carl I remember this. I just fucked 179 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: with Cardy. So to go back to your point about 180 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: you know, uh, would I be afraid somebody gonna be 181 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: bigger than me? 182 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: That's the whole point. And then like you said, I'm 183 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 2: just doing what was done for me. That's because I 184 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 2: see that that's the way I got to the next level. 185 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 2: Because without that, I might would have crashed out. I 186 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 2: might wouldn't have had no real role map. And that's 187 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: what I need for us to understand that, Bro, we 188 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: are leaving the role map we're in. It's like being 189 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: in an undeveloped city. That's right. Podcasting is like it's undeveloped. 190 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: Charlamagne been out here for twenty five years. Though, when 191 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: when I get here, I need to hook up with 192 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: somebody that either unhooked up with Charlamagne or hooked up 193 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: with somebody that's already been here. But I don't. I don't. 194 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't even want people to just focus on podcasts. 195 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: And that's that's like one of the big things I 196 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: keep trying to stretch, Like I'm a multi media entrepreneur, 197 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I don't like that people 198 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: like to say Mogo. I let other people say I'm 199 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 1: a I'm a multi media. 200 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 2: They put you Mogo down on one of them things too. 201 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: That's what they That's what I'm saying, Like they say 202 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: that they put me on these lists when they introduce me. 203 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: That's what they say. What constitute of mogo though, Look 204 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 2: what all you've done. I mean, that's what I'm saying. 205 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 2: Getting back and let's let's remember this because I want 206 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: to speak on that because at some point you had. 207 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: This is the problem I think we're dealing with too, 208 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: is that Charlemagne is the guy who's actually got the 209 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: stats and the numbers and the ship to back up 210 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 2: what he's saying. But he's in this space where you know, 211 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: I won't I'm not proclaiming it, and these other guys 212 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: may not have the numbers, but they're proclaiming it like hey, 213 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: I know what to do. Hey, I'm the person that 214 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 2: tells the culture. Hey, don't anyone take that kind of deal. 215 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 2: That deal is bad, or don't go this way with 216 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 2: your ship. That's right, And it's like, yo, but have 217 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: you even done it that way? 218 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: Well, it's up to it's up to people to pay attention. 219 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: Like you lo and you look under the hood of cars, 220 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: Oh yes, you know what I mean. So if people 221 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: just want to look at the nice paint job on 222 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: the car and be like, Yo, that's what I want 223 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: to drive, jump in it. You're gonna go a few 224 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: miles and realize this engine bad as a mother. You 225 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like the people I follow man, 226 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: like the people that I look to. 227 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 2: And entertainment. 228 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: I got four entertainment role models on Senior Hall because 229 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: what he did with that late night talk show was legendary. 230 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: Do you want to do that that you you ultimately 231 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 2: want to you want to want to be? Well, I'll 232 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 2: tell you this. 233 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: And this is another misconception that they say online, right, 234 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: They love to say. 235 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: And that's what we are with the shows and ship 236 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 2: so we. 237 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: Can talk about They love to say Charlamagne has failed 238 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: TV shows I've had. I've had great success in television, 239 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: and I've had moderate success in television. The great success 240 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: came from the guy Codes and all of that stuff 241 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: like that That guy Cold did like five or six 242 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: seasons and spawned off so many different spinoff shows. 243 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 3: You heard all the shows that I. 244 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: Got named before, not just for me, but for other people. 245 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: And then with the talk show. The first talk show 246 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: I've ever had canceled was Hell of a Week, was 247 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: just got canceled. The first one, No, this one that 248 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: just happened one. That's a big misconception because Uncommon Sense 249 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: was on for three seasons, like three years. The only 250 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: reason Uncommon Sense stopped because MTV two stopped doing original programming. 251 00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 2: Period industry change. 252 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: It was like there was there's no more original programming 253 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 3: on MTV too. 254 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: It is the same reason you don't see No Guy 255 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: cod or any of that stuff like that. 256 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 2: I think I might have been the last show. What 257 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 2: makes MTV? What makes someone like Comedy Central make that 258 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: decision to go that other way and say, Yo, we're 259 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 2: kind of getting out original program and we're going the 260 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 2: other way. Did they converse that because I it was 261 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: another thing I want to tell the youngsters. Negotiation is 262 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: so important because although you didn't film that third season, 263 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 2: you still were paid. 264 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: We were supposed to come back for a third season, 265 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: but the business changes. Trevor Noah left the Daily Show. 266 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: I mean, so when the Trevor Noah leaves, that was 267 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: our leading that's Comedy Central's. 268 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 2: Lead fain leading for them too. 269 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: Or he used to come on at eleven o'clock. So 270 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: you know what they hope with the lead in is 271 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: you got a great lead in and you're able to 272 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: maintain at least fifty to sixty percent of those ratings. 273 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. Some weeks we did that, 274 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 2: some weeks we didn't. 275 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,599 Speaker 1: But when Trevor Noah left unexpectedly, now Comedy Central's like, 276 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: damn what you know, Like that's that's the guarantee, the 277 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: guy that's the guaranteed number, guaranteed ad revenue. Then you 278 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: get a writer's crap that happens, you know what I mean? 279 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: When the writer's crake happens, Man, and you will show 280 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: and you know you're not on air and you're not 281 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: like established like a lot of the other talk shows. Yeah, 282 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 1: they're gonna, they're gonna, they' gonna they're gonna move in 283 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 1: another direction. I mean, that's just part of the business. 284 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: And that's industry change. 285 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 2: And I think again, the same way we see that 286 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 2: industry change with that, this is what we speak to 287 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 2: when we talk about YouTube, is that there can be 288 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: an industry change in which they just say, you know what, 289 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 2: if you've been using the N word in your videos, 290 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: you're done. Now. All of you guys that got this 291 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: big catalog on YouTube with videos, you're done. Now. It 292 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: creates a job. Not only does it decrease your income. 293 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 2: Now you got to send somebody in the edit. So 294 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: now it becomes an expense because of the industry change. 295 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 2: But when you negotiate in a way that you did, 296 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: even though the industry change, they still have to make 297 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: sure that I'm paid. How did you is that? Is 298 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: that just your team being at. 299 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: A that's my that's my team. But it's also just 300 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: having having having good relationships, you know what I mean, 301 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: having good relationships, but also sometimes things what's in the 302 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: contract still got to be honored, like you know, that's 303 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: that That's why you got to be very careful of 304 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 1: you know, when you say certain things in emails or 305 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: when certain things are said, because that has to be honored. 306 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: Like people don't realize. You can be going back and 307 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: forth in emails and you know, if I need to 308 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: make sure you, if I need to make sure you 309 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: uphold what you know, if you if I need to 310 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: make sure you do what you said you're going to do, 311 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: I could say, I got this email chain that shit 312 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: is That shit is binding all the deal points and everything. 313 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 2: And then like you said, that communication back and forth 314 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: is definitely binding in court. 315 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the other thing too, I'm I'm I'm in 316 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: a great space with Paramount and have been for the 317 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: past eleven twelve years. 318 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 2: And so that that even speaks to the council. Relation 319 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 2: wasn't one of there's no more value in Charlemagne and 320 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: that's how your enemies are painted. Of course they painted like, yo, 321 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: the late night show is like, it's no value in 322 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: Charlemagne on the late night market. But you got these 323 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 2: companies saying, hey, our relationship with Charlemagne is still in good. 324 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: Stands, and that's all you want at the end of 325 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: the day. Like I said, I've had great success in television, 326 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: and I've had moderate success in television, not just being 327 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: in front of the camera but producing shows as well. 328 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: Same thing with you know, producing films.

Like I don't, I don't really understand 828 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 2: because I know where they live at. With the point right, 829 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 2: the point is with Sean Main, you built that, and 830 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 2: we've been taught to if we build it, we need 831 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 2: to own it. 832 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 1: Breakfast Club is a nationally syndicated radio pro. 833 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 2: That you were hired for. But I got I have equity. 834 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: No, I wasn't hired to do a nationally syndicated radio show. 835 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 2: Here we go, this is the business I was hired to. 836 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 2: This is what we look. 837 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 1: I was hired to do a show called The Breakfast 838 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: Club that was a local show. 839 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 2: In New York. 840 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 1: Meeting with me and Van Angelie, we built it into 841 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: a nationally syndicated program. That's when you start having the 842 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: equity conversations. And by the way, loan, let me see, 843 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: I've been doing Breakfast Club for thirteen years, one two, 844 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,280 Speaker 1: I'm on my fourth contract. 845 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 2: You don't think you don't think my people updated anything 846 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 2: or no amendments happen. How does black effect happen? But 847 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 2: it's important to speak on me and you me and 848 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 2: you have the common sense to navigate this. Absolutely, it's 849 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 2: important to clarify these points in detail. 850 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: Because because you know, when it comes to radio, you know, 851 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: there was a point in my life where I thought 852 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: about wanting to own a bunch of radio stations, like 853 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: you know, like people like Stevie Wonder, Kathy Hughes. But 854 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: then it's twenty twenty three, Like my mind has been 855 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: on podcasts since I became a part of loud Speaking 856 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: network Combat Jackson when I was behind the scenes there, 857 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,760 Speaker 1: you know, and having equity in loudspeakle not not just equity, 858 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 1: but the ownership taking loud speaker, which I gave back 859 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: to Chris once I luned black effective with what the hell 860 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: on my hole on the. 861 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 2: Right loudspeaker like look for what likes. 862 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: Plenty of money to go around. So it's like I 863 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 1: started seeing it back then. I started seeing what Gimblet 864 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: was doing and Bill Simmons the Ringer and you know, 865 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: all of these networks. I was like looking at all 866 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: of these networks selling this, you know, Spotify one hundred 867 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: million millionaire. I'm like, yo, we got all of these 868 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: podcasts host about all of this black talent out here. 869 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: Whenever I have conversations with a lot of these black talent, 870 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: they don't necessarily know how to translate that that that 871 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: viewership and that listenership and the dollars. Yes, so it's like, oh, 872 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: I know what I want my next play to be 873 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: get owning radio stations. 874 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 2: Let's do a podcast network. Yes. So that's where this 875 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 2: comes into playoffs. 876 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, to your point when you first start Breakfast Club, Yeah, 877 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna work for hire. It's been thirteen years man. 878 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 2: And that's so come on man. Thats because people because 879 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 2: see it. For them to blimish the image of Charlemagne, 880 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 2: it couldn't have just been one thing. It has to 881 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 2: be all these little tit bits of things they try 882 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 2: to amplify. Right, Oh, you built that, bro, you don't 883 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 2: own it? Well, no, I didn't own it, or I 884 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 2: don't own one hundred percent of it. It's not just 885 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 2: me right now, someone like Joe may own one hundred 886 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 2: percent of this podcast, and you had people that to 887 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: help build it. So that's a weird thing. Let's talk 888 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 2: in rap terms. 889 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: Do you think fifty gave a fuck that he didn't 890 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: own Shady Aftermath? 891 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 2: Exactly? No, you gonna start g on it, exactly.

You know, I have 896 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,720 Speaker 1: large ownership stakes and some things small, am. 897 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 2: But I have a portfolio and these dudes are talking 898 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 2: to me about a podcast. This is what's strange. You know. 899 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 2: I'm saying, God blessed, shout out to everybody hustling and 900 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 2: making their money. But bro, I'm saying that there's kind 901 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 2: of a different hustle going on that. No, that's one 902 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 2: of my hustle. That's what I'm saying, Like. 903 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: Think that that's one of my hustles. The podcast that 904 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: I love. I love podcasting. I love the world of podcasting. 905 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: Like I said, Brandon, if we started ten years ago, 906 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 1: I got a slew christ More always because Chris told 907 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 1: me two things that changed my life. Chris told me 908 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: that I need to write a book, which I always 909 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: wanted to do, and he told me I need to 910 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 1: start a podcast. And I was arrogant. I was like, 911 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 1: start a podcast? Why I do morning radio? And he 912 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: was like, nah, man, I'm telling you man, podcasts is 913 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 1: gonna be the wave. 914 00:40:58,360 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 2: You need to do it. 915 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: You know, it gives you a platform outside of breakfast club. 916 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 1: You know you're donet have been fired for a time, 917 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, oh, he might be right? 918 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 3: Who you want? 919 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,959 Speaker 1: Who want to do a podcast with? Let me think 920 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: the ball all the way in Atlanta. You know I 921 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: need somebody you know here in New York. Oh, my guy, Andrew, 922 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: Andrew Funny and Ship. He's smart at Ship. I know Andrew. 923 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: I believe Andrew is going to be a star. Let's 924 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: start this podcast early. I didn't see it at first. 925 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,799 Speaker 1: Now it's clear, it's like the fuck he turned that 926 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: into summer. But at first it was like, what is 927 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 1: Charlemagne doing? And I want to talk about that too, 928 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: because I see, you know, people try to pit me 929 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,479 Speaker 1: and Andrew together and I see the play. 930 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 2: Right, let's called some device, right right, right? Yes, I've 931 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 2: never looked at Andrew as being beneath me, being smaller than. 932 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: Even when you was the guy. You know why, I 933 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 1: just I know his talent. Yes, I'm looking at your talent. Yes, 934 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 1: I don't care about your status. 935 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 2: You respected this conversation in the same way you're doing 936 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 2: with me. That's it. 937 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: That's why the podcast has always been The Brilliant Idiots. 938 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: It ain't the Charlamagne to God podcast, you know. And 939 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 1: I got that name from being I was a guest 940 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: hosting on Bethany Frankels show one time and I said 941 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: something and the crowd started laughing, and Bethany goes, you 942 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: come on this show all the time and you say 943 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: the smartest, stupidest things.

But that's why it's always 946 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: been the Brilliant Idiots. It's not Charlamage the God. It's 947 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: not Andrew Schultz. I see what he I knew what 948 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: he was capable of back then, and I'm even watching 949 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 1: him now and I know what he's capable of. In 950 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: the last thirteen years we have we bumped heads absolutely. 951 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: You know, he might check me for something, I check 952 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:48,439 Speaker 1: him for something. 953 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 2: It's two males, two men, that's right.

Somebody might have to come in when business 957 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,879 Speaker 2: is involved and try to help me. See when I'm 958 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 2: not seeing he's saying this, I really don't, you know, 959 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 2: and so we have to be able to work through that. 960 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 2: I respect what he's built, Like I said, at first, 961 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 2: I felt like, all right, I know he gonna be 962 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 2: okay because Charlamagne got love for him. So I felt like, 963 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 2: if nothing else, he gonna at least be around Charlotte. 964 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 2: But then he started to kind of pull away and 965 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 2: pull up, and I said, oh, that's what Sean Smaller 966 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 2: was seeing. 967 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: You see you see like the brilliant of this YouTube page, 968 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: we had over a million followers.

We created a space Shultz was on stage. 978 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,720 Speaker 1: He took that content on stage and then use YouTube 979 00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:00,479 Speaker 1: as a platform to get that content. Scene Show Saves 980 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 1: America when he's doing to turn your camera phone created 981 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: that used YouTube to get that content out, but that 982 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 1: content can live anywhere.

It was definitely wrong. I 1374 01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 2: think he crashed out. I think he crashed a lot 1375 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 2: of his relationships out based on people saying, Yo, you 1376 01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 2: might have handled that wrong. 1377 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:11,680 Speaker 1: By the way, I love that. I'm gonna tell you why. 1378 01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 2: I love that. 1379 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 1: Now you're making me thinking I have to think back 1380 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:19,600 Speaker 1: on it. The reason I love that is because, yeah, 1381 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 1: he was going through that. And then him and I 1382 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 1: had a conversation on the phone after I made my 1383 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 1: comments on the air, right well, I think my comments 1384 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,760 Speaker 1: was something like, you know, I think he understands his value, 1385 01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,240 Speaker 1: but he may not know how to properly negotiate it, right, 1386 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 1: And so me and him had a conversation and I 1387 01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:42,720 Speaker 1: was explaining to him why those the Bill Simmons of 1388 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,120 Speaker 1: the world, you know, they why they got the money, 1389 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:46,880 Speaker 1: they warrant that money. You know what I'm saying, It's 1390 01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:49,240 Speaker 1: because they got a network. You know, you can't Joe 1391 01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 1: Rogan is an anomaly. You can't even look at this 1392 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 1: man was getting a hundred million downloads a month. 1393 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:57,320 Speaker 2: He's still getting an exclusive contract getting eleven million, That's 1394 01:01:57,320 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. 1395 01:01:58,200 --> 01:01:59,960 Speaker 1: At one point he was getting a hundred million download 1396 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,280 Speaker 1: a Mutton Audio. If you know anything about the podcast 1397 01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:03,520 Speaker 1: audio space, you know how. 1398 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 2: Ridiculous that that's carrying a whole organization. 1399 01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:07,920 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. And then his videos on YouTube, 1400 01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:10,360 Speaker 1: he was getting billions of views. He gave Spotify the 1401 01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 1: exclusive rights to his videos, so that's it's just a 1402 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 1: different But let's look at the networks. The reason the 1403 01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:18,960 Speaker 1: network he's getting getting this money is because they have 1404 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 1: actual networks. Bill Simmons had seven to eight successful shows 1405 01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 1: already under him. Now, I didn't tell him what the 1406 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: player I was about to do. I'm just explaining to 1407 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:32,480 Speaker 1: him what warrants the money, what warrants the money? And 1408 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 1: you know, I remember he put out a tweet and 1409 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:39,520 Speaker 1: the tweet was like he said, Charlottage, I am a network. 1410 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: We'll talk or something like that. 1411 01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:44,720 Speaker 2: Cool.
