Speaker 1: happy to weekend his head brother since yesterday, Nah, it's here. Today.
Speaker 1: Today is today, boy, Today is today. I'm excited about that,
Speaker 1: how y'all. For No, no, no, I mean not not
Speaker 1: like today's today, like it's d Day, like it's a rap. No.
Speaker 1: I mean like, you know, I'm tired, like you know yesterday. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm in LA right now for super Bowl. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm out here, uh DJ and working and I'm going
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl on Sunday. But yesterday I had
Speaker 1: to first stop in Houston. You know, I'm doing car
Speaker 1: show season. It's starting back up, and Houston is one
Speaker 1: of the new markets that I'm doing the car showing.
Speaker 1: So I had to go to Houston before the Rodeo
Speaker 1: came in town so I can actually see the space.
Speaker 1: So I flew to Houston for a couple of hours,
Speaker 1: uh seeing the space at the Energy Stadium, and then
Speaker 1: after that I got back on a plane and flew
Speaker 1: to LA. So it's been a lot of traveling, a
Speaker 1: lot of running around, and I'm happy I could just
Speaker 1: just relax today. After the show's over, I'm going back
Speaker 1: for bed. Brother difference. That time difference in LA can
Speaker 1: really be crazy because you know, the show is on
Speaker 1: the East Coast at six am in LA, that's three am.
Speaker 1: But the energy. I would say is is great in LA.
Speaker 1: When I landed, I think I landed at about ten
Speaker 1: o'clock at night, and what I see everybody I see
Speaker 1: posting stuff like violence, Tucky Chain, this weekend alive. When
Speaker 1: I got to the airport, it was everybody was cheering
Speaker 1: and happy and everybody, you know, a lot you could
Speaker 1: tell it was a lot of Rams fans there. And
Speaker 1: then when I got to the hotel, all night I
Speaker 1: kept hearing siren. So I guess it's a little bit
Speaker 1: of both. I guess it's a little bit exciting and
Speaker 1: a little bit of action. So it's probably two different
Speaker 1: world two different perspectives. You got some people there that's
Speaker 1: there for the super Bowl, and you got some people
Speaker 1: there that's, you know, there for the violence. Some people listen,
Speaker 1: it's a lot of people there that's gonna be looking
Speaker 1: for quick come ups this weekend. Absolutely, So I just
Speaker 1: want to let everybody know, I got three dollars in
Speaker 1: my pocket, no jewelry, no watch, and that's it. So
Speaker 1: if you try to rob me, it's practicing. Yeah. So
Speaker 1: I tend to listen to the people who actually lived there,
Speaker 1: the natives, you know what I mean, who really know
Speaker 1: what's going on on the ground. Yea, I tend to
Speaker 1: listen to them, not the tour. If you want to practice,
Speaker 1: you can gay all day long. Give me what you got,
Speaker 1: here's who dogs? All right? Thank you? I ain't got nothing,
Speaker 1: So just just letting you know, just letting you know.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they all say, and be very careful if
Speaker 1: you're moving around, make sure you move around safe with
Speaker 1: a bunch of people. Don't go anywhere because it is
Speaker 1: a stick up season. When you say a bunch of people,
Speaker 1: like what are you? Who are you talking to? Because
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like regularly people, who do
Speaker 1: you mean you're talk abou celebrities, athletes? Who you talking about?
Speaker 1: A bunch of people? You remember when the police put
Speaker 1: out that memoir. So we can't protect you. You're on
Speaker 1: your own to be smart, be careful and if you
Speaker 1: got anything value, but don't wear you remember when the
Speaker 1: police put that stack. Yeah, but you said a bunch
Speaker 1: of people, I'm just like, who, Who's who's rolling around
Speaker 1: with a bunch of everyone? Everybody don't have an entourage?
Speaker 1: Well that's that's that's what you mean, moving around with
Speaker 1: a bunch of people. Yes, it's not at home. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not just celebrities and athletes in the super Bowl
Speaker 1: in LA this weekend. Everybody look alive. Just be careful
Speaker 1: if you're out here. What about you, Yeah, you're still
Speaker 1: in Detroit shooting it up. Yeah, I actually been out
Speaker 1: here every day. Um, just doing like a couple of
Speaker 1: scenes for this movie. My friend Dennis Reid is doing
Speaker 1: out here, so I'm doing a little role. But um,
Speaker 1: it's a lot of work. So every time you watch
Speaker 1: a movie now I'm looking at it like how every
Speaker 1: single scene has to be shot several times from different angles.
Speaker 1: It's like a very long process of waiting around and
Speaker 1: then reshooting scenes over and over and over and over
Speaker 1: and over again. But I'll be home today, y'all. Pop.
Speaker 1: I didn't do nothing yesterday but watching ESPN and watch
Speaker 1: James Hawk and get you sent to the sixes and
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons get sent to the next Well, yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean in front page. I watched that on the phone yesterday.
Speaker 1: And I do want to shot out to Central Kitchen
Speaker 1: out here too. They sell my coffee as an espresso martini,
Speaker 1: my cup coffee, so I went there yesterday for dinner.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's get the show cracking. Uh. Gary
Speaker 1: Chambers Junior, he's running for Louisiana Senate and he'll be
Speaker 1: joining us and you might know him. Um. Recently he
Speaker 1: had a video go viral when he announced he was running.
Speaker 1: He was smoking some weed and people were the mom
Speaker 1: So this week he's gonna be joining us this morning,
Speaker 1: and this week he burned the Confederate flag. I like
Speaker 1: gar change a lot because he's he is the change.
Speaker 1: He's being the change he wants to see in politics.
Speaker 1: So can't wait to talk to him, absolutely all right,
Speaker 1: and we'll get into that. And also today a major hype,
Speaker 1: all right, major hype comedian, Caribbean comedian. He's gonna be
Speaker 1: performing in New York City all weekend long for Valentine's.
Speaker 1: They're actually just Sunday, just for Sunday for his big show.
Speaker 1: So we'll be talking to major hype later on as well.
Speaker 1: But let's get the show cracking. Front page news. What
Speaker 1: we're talking, well, let's talk about a White House Press
Speaker 1: Secretary Jem Saki has addressed the inaccurate reporting on the
Speaker 1: quote thirty million dollars in federal grants that are going
Speaker 1: to be used to supply free crack pipe. She said
Speaker 1: that is not true. Oh god, why are they holding
Speaker 1: onto this? All right, well, we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ
Speaker 1: Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news all right. Now,
Speaker 1: yesterday was the trade NBA trade deadline, and everybody was
Speaker 1: talking about the trade James Harden for Ben Simmons and
Speaker 1: who else was part of that? Andre Drummond, Seth Curry.
Speaker 1: So the Nets got Stef Curry, Andre Drummond in two
Speaker 1: first round draft picks, and the six has got uh
Speaker 1: James Harden and Paul Miss miss Sap, Miss Millsap Mill Sap. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people are saying it's not it's not actually a bad
Speaker 1: deal for Brooklyn if Ben Simmons comes to play. They're
Speaker 1: saying Ben Simmons is a great player. They saying Seth
Speaker 1: Curry gets busy and they say it's it's not a
Speaker 1: bad deal for Brooklyn. The Nets absolutely one that deal,
Speaker 1: and the really not mad at it. Yeah, the next
Speaker 1: one gets busy too. They got two first round picks,
Speaker 1: They got two first round picks, and they got Stef Curry.
Speaker 1: So that's that's that's a great deal. And people will
Speaker 1: say that the team will be more balanced. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's what they're saying. So that's but we are
Speaker 1: letting nets fans off the hook a little easy because
Speaker 1: boy y'all had a parade played in Brooklyn, and we
Speaker 1: told y'all, this wasn't gonna work, that James Harden, Kyrie
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant combination. But boy y'all had already played the
Speaker 1: parade in Brooklyn last year, didn't y'all? A lot of
Speaker 1: things happen Kyrie was playing, Yeah, the only played sixteen games.
Speaker 1: It was thirteen and three when the Big Three were playing.
Speaker 1: It was they only played sixteen games out of one
Speaker 1: a year and a half with each other. So there's
Speaker 1: no way to really tell, yes, there was if you
Speaker 1: watch basketball. So many people predicted that wouldn't work. I know,
Speaker 1: injuries and everything else. Even with him on the court,
Speaker 1: I didn't think that was gonna work. Not enough ball
Speaker 1: going around and they don't play no defense. It's like,
Speaker 1: come on that wasteen and three when they were together
Speaker 1: on the court. Well, I know one thing, Ben Simmons,
Speaker 1: if he comes back and he plays right in his
Speaker 1: mind is right. He's gonna make them a better defensive
Speaker 1: team immediately. So Andre Drummond, that is a fact. All right?
Speaker 1: What else we got easy? All right? Well, you saw
Speaker 1: a lot of headlines the White House is going to
Speaker 1: be supplying free crack pipes to drug users with the
Speaker 1: new plan that they're doing for thirty million dollars in
Speaker 1: federal grants. White House Press Secretary Jen Saki has addressed
Speaker 1: what she is calling inaccurate reporting on this topic. These
Speaker 1: are harm reduction programs, and she discusses what is actually
Speaker 1: contained in that safe smoking kid. Here's what he had
Speaker 1: to say. They were never a part of the kid.
Speaker 1: It was inaccurate reporting, and we wanted to put out
Speaker 1: information to make that clearer. Is in the safe smoking kit.
Speaker 1: A safe smoking skin may contain alcohol, swabs, lip bomb,
Speaker 1: other materials to promote hygiene and reduce the transmission of
Speaker 1: diseases like HIV and hepatitis. I would note that what
Speaker 1: we're really talking about here is steps that we're taking
Speaker 1: as a federal government to address the opioid epidemic, which
Speaker 1: is killing tens of thousands, if not more, Americans every
Speaker 1: single day, week, month of the year. I don't even
Speaker 1: know what they're talking about it anymore because the full
Speaker 1: thirty million dollar grant. Yes, all she had to do
Speaker 1: is say is not you know, just towards crack pipes.
Speaker 1: But the grant description does require a provision of smoking
Speaker 1: kicks and those smoking kids, and those kids constitute just
Speaker 1: one of several subcomponents of a long list. So yes,
Speaker 1: it's a very small part of a larger program. But
Speaker 1: when you look in that smoking kid, there is this
Speaker 1: blue tube that looks a lot like a pipe. So well,
Speaker 1: she she did say all of that, but then they
Speaker 1: did ask what's in the smoking kit in particular, but
Speaker 1: she did describe everything else. It's happening the time production program. Yes,
Speaker 1: and you don't think that thing looks like a pipe?
Speaker 1: It does. Um, I mean tell you what she said.
Speaker 1: People are saying it's a crack pipe, but she's saying
Speaker 1: that it's not a crack pipe. I mean, she may
Speaker 1: not call it a crack pipe because I mean, a
Speaker 1: crack pipe is more so slang than anything. But that
Speaker 1: is some type of two that you would smoke cracking.
Speaker 1: So whatever, there's no pipes and safe smoking kids. The
Speaker 1: goal of harm reduction is to save lives. Yes, that
Speaker 1: is very true. All of that is very true. But
Speaker 1: she's they're acting like this is not a part a
Speaker 1: small part of a larger program. It is a small
Speaker 1: part of a larger program. Like whether people want to
Speaker 1: name it crack pipes or whatever, it's a tube to
Speaker 1: smoke cracking. Like what's I think. I think what she
Speaker 1: was trying to do was correct all the headlines that
Speaker 1: say things like biding crying policy, crack pipes for all,
Speaker 1: what could go wrong? Or they're spending thirty million dollars
Speaker 1: to send meth and crack pipes to minority communities in
Speaker 1: the name of racial equity, And that's not true. That's
Speaker 1: not true. It's it's just that's what she's saying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it is part, a very small part of a
Speaker 1: larger program. They're just not doing a good job of
Speaker 1: describing the larger program because Democrats suck at messaging. Simply that, well,
Speaker 1: that is your front page news. Now get it off
Speaker 1: your chess eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.
Speaker 1: If you need to vent, hit us up right now,
Speaker 1: phone line to wide open again. Eight hundred five eight
Speaker 1: five one oh five one. Is the breakfast Club, God
Speaker 1: Morning the Breakfast Club. This is your time to get
Speaker 1: it off your chests, whether you're mad or blessed. So
Speaker 1: you better we want to hear from you on the
Speaker 1: breakfast Club. Hello. Who's this? Hi? This is Monica from Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: Hey Monica, Monica. Hi. Um, So I just wanted to
Speaker 1: speak about that whole drug thing you guys were just
Speaker 1: talking about with the crack PI, the harm reduction, the
Speaker 1: harm reduction program. Yeah, that and maybe the messaging just
Speaker 1: needs to be clear because I don't see how it's
Speaker 1: fair that we're spending thirty million dollars on this, but
Speaker 1: we're not addressing again, like the student loan issues. We're
Speaker 1: not giving you know, people who are in debt who
Speaker 1: worked hard, like any type of assistance. So I just
Speaker 1: don't understand what's happening and who's making these decisions about
Speaker 1: how that money should be allocated. This doesn't seem better. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's actually a good program. You know,
Speaker 1: I personally wish that you know, they would spend more
Speaker 1: money on you know, rehabilitation and mental health services, but
Speaker 1: you know a lot of people aren't willing to just
Speaker 1: go out there and get help. So this harm reduction
Speaker 1: program could be a first step to them getting rehabilitation.
Speaker 1: But they're just not doing a good job of describing
Speaker 1: the larger program. That's it very true. They should do
Speaker 1: something with euphoria. Maybe they show euphoria. I'm saying because
Speaker 1: that's kind of the point of the show is India,
Speaker 1: that would be a great add for it. Maybe that's well,
Speaker 1: that's the thing. I'm a teacher, and I just feel
Speaker 1: like maybe we can start some more interventions with young
Speaker 1: people in the schools that start putting money into our
Speaker 1: schools versus into like the problem, Like let's feed more
Speaker 1: proactive and avoid the problems. I agree with that too.
Speaker 1: That was a thank you? Hello? Who's this? Hey? What's up? Brother?
Speaker 1: What's going on? If Miguel, Miguel? What up? Man? Whatever?
Speaker 1: Why are you calling it? Like? We know you can? Peace? King?
Speaker 1: How are you? Good morning? Harry you good morning? Agually.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm coming for you. I gotta get off
Speaker 1: my chet. You gotta stop for the Democrat. Somebody sep
Speaker 1: something about them. You always got them really stopping already.
Speaker 1: You gotta break up with that relationship. I can't wherever
Speaker 1: I went and believe what I went right, just like
Speaker 1: you can, you can, and I know you do. And
Speaker 1: I grew up Democrat at all too, you know, but
Speaker 1: it's just like because you only have two parties and
Speaker 1: it's just not fair to vote like, you know, keep
Speaker 1: going back to the Democratic Republicans. I don't want either.
Speaker 1: I'm a chameleon. You gotta be a comedian. You should
Speaker 1: start the Funny Party. They are they are, they are there.
Speaker 1: I've seen people say they want Dave Chappelle the runner president.
Speaker 1: I think people say they want your Rogan Rubber president.
Speaker 1: They're both comedians. Hum, I guess it's phone. Did want
Speaker 1: anybody to run for president? But get it off your chests?
Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If
Speaker 1: you need to vent, hit us up right now. Phone
Speaker 1: lines a wide open. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. I'm telling, I'm telling, what's doing? I
Speaker 1: calling you? This is your time to get it off
Speaker 1: your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. Eight hundred five
Speaker 1: eighty five one oh five one. We want to hear
Speaker 1: from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello. Who's this yo?
Speaker 1: It's good This Jermaine out of Atlanta by way of
Speaker 1: hallowing King. Get it off your chest. I wanted the
Speaker 1: proposal something to you guys, see what y'all thought of it.
Speaker 1: It's based on the conversation y'all was having yesterday about
Speaker 1: economics in our community and that kind of stuff. Um,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we have to lean
Speaker 1: in the way we are celebrated and not tolerated. Like
Speaker 1: Charlomagne no Away say yes, sir. So, like what if
Speaker 1: we do a program where like we take a product
Speaker 1: made by the community promoted, getting a million units of
Speaker 1: it sold by us, Like I like that idea, post
Speaker 1: a product once every once, once every month, every three months, whatever,
Speaker 1: and like everybody in the community, even our allies, they
Speaker 1: don't just have to be black, support support product and
Speaker 1: buy a million units of that product. So that so
Speaker 1: that business to the least, had that that kind of
Speaker 1: start to get off the ground and get something popitle
Speaker 1: I like that idea. To be honest with you, we
Speaker 1: wouldn't even we wouldn't even need a million. You buy
Speaker 1: a one hundred thousand of somebody's product, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, You change their life. Yeah, the wall material
Speaker 1: to produce stuff. So we have to partner up with
Speaker 1: these these other coaches in order to predict, to get
Speaker 1: our products with duce. So like you're right now, I agree.
Speaker 1: I mean Charlomagne and I we're talking to shout to
Speaker 1: John Cohen. He's one of the I think the only
Speaker 1: black NASK called owner. Yeah, the only black nask called owner,
Speaker 1: the brothers from now New Jersey. And he, Uh, we're

Speaker 1: not having to support as everybody else, and a lot
Speaker 1: of times we don't just watch, we don't watch the NASCAR,
Speaker 1: but like he said, we make everything sexy and we

Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next, so don't move.
Speaker 1: It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Listen.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, got report got j All right, Well,
Speaker 1: you can't always just read the headlines. Right now, Kanye
Speaker 1: West is supposed to be headlining Coachella alongside Billy Eilish,
Speaker 1: and he posted a headline Billy Eilish dis Travis Scott
Speaker 1: at her concert after she stopped the show to give
Speaker 1: her fan and inhaler, he posted, come on, Billy, we
Speaker 1: love you. Please apologize to Trav into the families of
Speaker 1: the people who lost their lives. No one intended this
Speaker 1: to happen. Trav didn't have any idea what was happening
Speaker 1: when he was on stage and was very hurt by
Speaker 1: what happened. And yes, travel will be with me at Coachella.
Speaker 1: But now I need Billy to apologize before I perform.
Speaker 1: But let's flash back to what Billy actually said while
Speaker 1: she was on stage. Okay, okay, we'll take you care
Speaker 1: of our people. Hold on, I wait for people to
Speaker 1: be okay, til be gone. It was a shot a
Speaker 1: trap now, Billy Billy Alice reponded, literally never said a
Speaker 1: thing about Travis, was just helping a fan. I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: Kanye got nerved to demand an apology from anyone for
Speaker 1: something they have said. Imagine someone demanding Kanye was apologized
Speaker 1: with something he said. Come on now, you also posted
Speaker 1: someone's comments. Somebody said Man's off the Med's album gonna
Speaker 1: go crazy. Kanye posted that and responded, the world is racist, sexist, homophobic,
Speaker 1: and crazy phobic at our core. It's cheap and dismissive
Speaker 1: to say I'm off my meds anytime I speak up.
Speaker 1: Phobia in this sense doesn't mean being afraid of. It
Speaker 1: means not giving power to less, be more conscious and
Speaker 1: not write each other off so easily. I'm watching that
Speaker 1: genius documentary this weekend. Though you got a link to it.
Speaker 1: You can't wait to watch. That hurts really good? All right,
Speaker 1: And congratulations to Eve. She has welcomed her first child
Speaker 1: with her husband, Maximilian Cooper, so congratulations to two of them.
Speaker 1: She posted our beautiful boy was born in February first,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Wild Wolf Fife Alexander Summers Cooper. Words
Speaker 1: can't describe this feeling probably even Maximilian. Congratulations, glad you
Speaker 1: had a healthy delivery. That's the most important thing. And
Speaker 1: Anderson Cooper has announced the birth of his second son.
Speaker 1: He said his newborn son name is Sebastian Luke Maisani Cooper.
Speaker 1: He was six point eight pounds at birth and he
Speaker 1: is healthy and happy. Even his occasional hiccups are to
Speaker 1: me adorable. So that's his second child. His first son, Wyatt,
Speaker 1: was born in April of twenty twenty, and he's co
Speaker 1: parenting Wyatt and Sebastian with his best friend and former partner,
Speaker 1: Benjamin Maisani. Dropping a clue bumps and Cooper benation, they
Speaker 1: had a healthy delivery. Important thing. And Dave Chappelle, people
Speaker 1: were saying that he killed this affordable housing plan that
Speaker 1: was going to be in Yellow Springs. He actually went
Speaker 1: to one of the meetings in the town which he
Speaker 1: always goes to, and he argued against the quote affordable
Speaker 1: housing options. That video went viral. Here it is. I
Speaker 1: just want to say, I don't know why the village
Speaker 1: council would be afraid of litigation from a twenty four
Speaker 1: million dollar year company. Well, it's out sixty five million
Speaker 1: dollars year company. I cannot believe you would make me
Speaker 1: audition for you. You look like clowns. I am not bumped.
Speaker 1: I will take it all off the table. That's all,
Speaker 1: thank you now. A rep of his, Carlos Sims, actually
Speaker 1: responded and said day Chapelle didn't kill affordable housing, concerned
Speaker 1: residence and a responding village council killed a half baked
Speaker 1: plan which never actually offered affordable housing, and they said
Speaker 1: that he's not an opposed to affordable housing options, but
Speaker 1: the proposal in question was a sprawl style development plan
Speaker 1: of which day Chappelle was not a fan. They also said,
Speaker 1: according to reports, it was supposed to be affordable housing,
Speaker 1: but it was three hundred thousand dollars, which is not
Speaker 1: even affordable in Yellow Springs, So that's not even affordable
Speaker 1: housing units. Yeah, we really live in a headline culture world,
Speaker 1: because if you just read about that situation and you
Speaker 1: would see that, you know, the affordable housing was they said,
Speaker 1: was a future possibility, not a given, and it was
Speaker 1: like one point seven five acres of land to be
Speaker 1: donated and later developed in the affordable housing. But it
Speaker 1: was like, he's not even what he's pushing back against
Speaker 1: that's not even a part of the project, Like the
Speaker 1: affordable housing project they talking about would have been separate
Speaker 1: from this development that he's even pushing back again. So
Speaker 1: I don't even understand where that headline came from, right So,
Speaker 1: but I guess people just you know, wanted that to
Speaker 1: go viral. All right now, there was a bunch of
Speaker 1: white people mad that a black man was flexing his
Speaker 1: power like that. That's what it sounded like to me,
Speaker 1: all right now, Wendy Williams, according to the Bank Wells Fargo,
Speaker 1: was saying. They're saying that she needs a guardianship and
Speaker 1: that she's an incapacitated person. They sent a letter to
Speaker 1: New York Supreme Court Judge Arlene Booth requesting a hearing
Speaker 1: to determine whether or not Wendy Williams needs a professional
Speaker 1: to intervene in her affairs. According to that attorney, they said,
Speaker 1: we are concerned about Williams situation. It is our hope
Speaker 1: that the guardianship part of the court will eminently a
Speaker 1: temporary guardian or evaluated to review the situation and ensure
Speaker 1: that Williams affairs are being properly handled. So not sure
Speaker 1: what information they have that they would believe she's not
Speaker 1: able to handle her own finances, but as you know,
Speaker 1: she's been trying to access her own accounts. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a tough one because you want to make sure that
Speaker 1: you know she is okay, that she could get her money.
Speaker 1: But then they said that she might foreclose on a property.
Speaker 1: She can't pick a staff because she get it because
Speaker 1: she can't get into those accounts. So I mean, I
Speaker 1: hope they handle that fast. But if she's okay and
Speaker 1: everything is fine and she's trying to get her money,
Speaker 1: she should be able to get her money. We also
Speaker 1: don't know exactly, but we also don't know the full situation,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It sounds to me like
Speaker 1: we're only getting a very very very very small part
Speaker 1: of the story, and that's why the story doesn't make
Speaker 1: any sense. But we're sending healing energy to Wendy Williams.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm doing. Well. Wendy Williams denies that she
Speaker 1: is the victim of undue influence and financial exploitation, and
Speaker 1: they have requested a temporary restraining order against the Wells
Speaker 1: Fargo to restrain the bank from freezing her accounts. And
Speaker 1: interfering with her right to access her financial assets and statement.
Speaker 1: All right, now, I saw this story circulating yesterday, and
Speaker 1: there was a story saying that this person claims they
Speaker 1: work at worked at iHeart but due to the vaccine
Speaker 1: mandated iHeartMedia not being extended last Thursday, many employees were terminated,
Speaker 1: including myself. That person claims they took snapshots from a
Speaker 1: privileged meeting and that the breakfast club will no longer exist,
Speaker 1: and that they have a tentative lists to change the
Speaker 1: morning show based in New York when their contract expires
Speaker 1: next spring. And they also claim to have had the
Speaker 1: salary information that they're planning to pay for the replacements.
Speaker 1: And so one blog posted this, but clearly that is
Speaker 1: a fake story. So you sure, I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't think you guys have both signed your contracts and
Speaker 1: they don't expire. I don't think you're fake. I don't
Speaker 1: know how you could. I don't think it's fake. I
Speaker 1: don't think it's fake at all. I don't even know.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's fake. I believed it when I
Speaker 1: saw it. I don't know what you're talking about. I
Speaker 1: don't know who even by this to do things like this.
Speaker 1: But okay, but shout out to my girl Roxy. You know,
Speaker 1: I see she was on the list that they said
Speaker 1: they were offering her money. A girl some morning, yeah,
Speaker 1: y and awesome, and somebody else's on the Remember my
Speaker 1: mother knows. Oh yeah, this is definitely true. I believe it.
Speaker 1: I believe it, and I'm sure Remy would ask for
Speaker 1: more money as well. Remy would ask more money. Believe
Speaker 1: the story. Alright, fact? What is it? A fact? Facts? Okay, well, yea,
Speaker 1: I have no I have no proof of stories that people.

Speaker 1: Day vocation? All right? Well, lat is your front your
Speaker 1: rumor report. Now we got front page news. Next we
Speaker 1: were talking about, yes, and let's talk about a black man.
Speaker 1: It was a FedEx delivery person and he got chased
Speaker 1: by two white men who didn't believes he needed to
Speaker 1: be in that neighborhood. All right, we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, So Breakfast Club, your
Speaker 1: mornings will never be the same. The General Insurance a
Speaker 1: quality insurance company that has been saving people money for
Speaker 1: nearly sixty years. Whatever y'all is dj envy and you

Speaker 1: restrictions apply. Morning. Everybody is dj Envy. Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get in
Speaker 1: some front page news now. NBA trade deadline was yesterday
Speaker 1: and the biggest trade of the day was James Harden
Speaker 1: for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry drumming and some two first
Speaker 1: round six sixes gave up a lot um. But Eddie, Eddie,
Speaker 1: Eddie who's from Philly, he's the sixes fan. He explained it.
Speaker 1: You know, it's not how do you explained to Eddie?
Speaker 1: Like the first round picks, one pick would be late,
Speaker 1: another one's protected. What was the next year? It's not
Speaker 1: going to mean, you think, because the six is gonna
Speaker 1: be in the playoffs, so that's probably like a twenty
Speaker 1: ninth pick or something like that, and then the next
Speaker 1: pick is protected, so got you. They go to a
Speaker 1: lot of reading, got twenty nine picking first round. Still
Speaker 1: could be a great player. Though they still could be
Speaker 1: play it'll be a great play. I just feel like
Speaker 1: they gave away a lot an Stef Curry Curry is
Speaker 1: a great piece. And Ray Drummond m m all right,
Speaker 1: Oh okay, long, I thought you guys were talking about it.
Speaker 1: Long term, US markets race have hit their highest in
Speaker 1: two years three point six nine percent, so that is
Speaker 1: potentially bumping some home buyers out of the market. With
Speaker 1: Americans getting squeezed by higher costs for just about everything.
Speaker 1: So just giving y'all it's still pretty low though, you know,
Speaker 1: the past two years. Yeah, but that's what they've been saying.
Speaker 1: They've been saying they're gonna try to raise interest rates
Speaker 1: on everything on loans, housing market, and in that all
Speaker 1: cut down some of inflation and also cut down the
Speaker 1: fact that some of these companies in these houses are
Speaker 1: going way over priced. So that's what they're trying to do.
Speaker 1: So it's going to hurt a lot of people. All
Speaker 1: r right, Now, let's go to Brookhaven, Mississippi. Two white
Speaker 1: men are facing criminal charges. There was a black FedEx
Speaker 1: Express driver who alleges that he was chased and shot
Speaker 1: at while he was simply doing his job delivering packages.
Speaker 1: And he says when he called the police to report
Speaker 1: the shooting, they didn't even take him seriously. Now, Dame
Speaker 1: Ontario Gibson, he's twenty four years old. He told CNN
Speaker 1: he was delivering packages to a home around seven pm
Speaker 1: on January twenty fourth, and he saw a white pickup
Speaker 1: truck coming from the house behind it. The truck approached
Speaker 1: him and started blowing the horn at him. Now, his van,
Speaker 1: by the way, Gibson, who was delivering the packages. His
Speaker 1: van was a Hurtz Rental van and he had on
Speaker 1: though the FedEx jacket, shirt and pants, but his vehicle
Speaker 1: didn't have any FedEx markings on it. Now, he said
Speaker 1: he thought he was in the truck's way, so he
Speaker 1: tried to leave, but the truck swerved around him and
Speaker 1: tried to cut him off. He said, at that point
Speaker 1: his instincts kicked in and he just swerved around the
Speaker 1: guy who was trying to cut him off to get
Speaker 1: out of the neighborhood. He said, he drove down the
Speaker 1: street about two or three houses and then a man
Speaker 1: in the middle of the road pointed a gun at
Speaker 1: his vehicle and was yelling at him to stop. Gibson said,
Speaker 1: he shook his head no, and then hid behind the
Speaker 1: staring wheel and swerved around him. And that's when that
Speaker 1: person started firing at him, at least five shots, he said,
Speaker 1: and he heard the bullets hitting the van. As he
Speaker 1: was leaving the neighborhood, one of his managers called. He
Speaker 1: told the manager someone was shooting at him. She told
Speaker 1: him get back to the station as fast as you can.
Speaker 1: And now the truck that was following him had both
Speaker 1: men inside and chased him out of Brookhaven into the interstate.
Speaker 1: And so that's what happened. Now, he did end up
Speaker 1: going to the police station to follow a report, and
Speaker 1: he felt like he was targeted by both of these
Speaker 1: white men because he's African American when he was doing
Speaker 1: his job as a FedEx driver in full uniform, when
Speaker 1: they chased him and assaulted him by gunfire. Can you
Speaker 1: imagine that happening. You're doing your job and all of
Speaker 1: this goes down. So he says he went to the
Speaker 1: police station, filed his report. Police weren't taking him seriously.
Speaker 1: One officer incorrectly repeated his statement back to him three
Speaker 1: or four times before finally getting it right, and the
Speaker 1: second officers said he was going to play devil's advocate
Speaker 1: and say, did you do anything to make them think
Speaker 1: that you were suspicious? Gibson said that with a slap
Speaker 1: in the face to him. And it actually took them
Speaker 1: eight days before they even got an arrest warrant to
Speaker 1: arrest these men that were shooting at him. So, yes,
Speaker 1: they are still investigating, and what they're saying is it
Speaker 1: takes a while for an investigation to happen, but we'll
Speaker 1: keep you updated on that case because he could have
Speaker 1: lost his life just trying to actually go and deliver
Speaker 1: these packages. And they did say FedEx is voluntarily paying
Speaker 1: for Gibson's therapy also, by the way, because after that,
Speaker 1: you know, he said he's um, he's been on leave.
Speaker 1: He's on unpaid leave for something that happened on the
Speaker 1: job and he should be on paid leave. And FedEx is, however,
Speaker 1: paying for that therapy. But they don't like the way
Speaker 1: FedEx handled it either wow wow, wow wow. We're praying
Speaker 1: for that, brother, but because you imagine you're trying to
Speaker 1: do your job and people start shooting at you. Two
Speaker 1: FedEx uniform delivering packages. All right, well that is your
Speaker 1: front page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now
Speaker 1: when we come back, we got a special guest joining us.
Speaker 1: We have man, Gary Chambers Junior. Gary Chambers Junior. This
Speaker 1: brother man, his brother is absolutely being the change that
Speaker 1: he wants to see in politics. He's running for Senator
Speaker 1: of Louisiana. All right, and we're gonna kick it with
Speaker 1: him next, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne
Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club. We got a
Speaker 1: special guest in the belting. He's running for Louisiana Senate.
Speaker 1: Gary Chambers, Julia Yes King. What's good, brothers, you're running
Speaker 1: for Louisiana Senate. Now, the video that that everybody seen
Speaker 1: was you smoking a little cannabis, no doubt, no doubt
Speaker 1: a little bit of week before that. You know, your
Speaker 1: story is so interested in me because you were just
Speaker 1: a tack fan citizen who got fed up with politics
Speaker 1: in your city. So who decided to be the change
Speaker 1: you want to see? And you know you stood up
Speaker 1: at that was the school board meeting, right board. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the one that that first went viral. Con explaining
Speaker 1: that meeting. So we had a school that was named
Speaker 1: after Roberty Lee and Baton Rouge, and I've got a
Speaker 1: twelve year old daughter that's in the Baton Rouge school
Speaker 1: system and she's on the track to potentially end up
Speaker 1: at that school. Not just me, but several of my
Speaker 1: brothers and friends in the community had kids that were
Speaker 1: in this school, and we didn't want our kids to
Speaker 1: have the name of a bigot on the high school diploma.
Speaker 1: We tried in twenty sixteen to change the name and
Speaker 1: were unsuccessful, but we kept pushing the issue, and then
Speaker 1: when George Floyd happened the country was in this bubbling point,
Speaker 1: we went back at it again. School Boy member Land
Speaker 1: has brought it and we showed up at the meeting.
Speaker 1: Connie's in the meeting, black woman sitting right next to
Speaker 1: her talking and she's on the end of the shopping
Speaker 1: It pissed me off, and I went to the mic. Well, first,
Speaker 1: I took a picture of Kannie because I knew she
Speaker 1: was gonna lie. Who was she shopping? What was she
Speaker 1: shopping for dresses? She was newly shopping for dresses while
Speaker 1: we were talking about the institutional racism that existed in
Speaker 1: our school system. And bat Much has a school system
Speaker 1: that's eighty percent black, right, And here's this middle aged
Speaker 1: white woman who just doesn't give a damn about what
Speaker 1: we're talking about. And so I did what I do,
Speaker 1: shopping all up there, you know. And so I did
Speaker 1: what I do and confront the truth about what was happening,
Speaker 1: and then gave historical context to what the problem was
Speaker 1: with robidly Leave and why his name shouldn't be on
Speaker 1: the school. It went viral for whatever the reason was,
Speaker 1: and I'm thankful for because, as someone who's been advocating
Speaker 1: in the community, the hardest part is getting the rest
Speaker 1: of the country to hear what's going on in your backyard.
Speaker 1: We won that night. The name is now Liberty High School.
Speaker 1: I would have rather PBS Pinchback High School. There are
Speaker 1: no high schools in Baton Rouge named after black people. Wow,
Speaker 1: did you ever have, like any dreams of being in
Speaker 1: politics or being some type of civil So I owned
Speaker 1: a media company, a black owned media company in Baton Rouge,
Speaker 1: and really I had no political aspirations because I'm a
Speaker 1: high school graduate, somebody who started the business with his
Speaker 1: friends and decided that I wanted to push the issues
Speaker 1: around making money. What I recognized there was a brother
Speaker 1: named Lamar Johnson and Baton Rouge, who a few weeks
Speaker 1: before Sandra Bland, he was said to have hung himself
Speaker 1: in Paris prison. I had this platform. I wrote a
Speaker 1: column about it. Forty thousand people read it, and Baton Rouge,
Speaker 1: that's a big deal. A few months later I dished
Speaker 1: attorney there, Hiller Moore, attempted to do this misdemeana jail,
Speaker 1: which basically was rounding up people who had simple traffic
Speaker 1: violations and arresting them for that right. We had one
Speaker 1: hundred and forty thousand people with those in Baton Rouge,
Speaker 1: and so I thought that if you can't handle what
Speaker 1: happened Lamar Johnson in Parish prison, then you don't need
Speaker 1: to open a temporary jail to cart people in on
Speaker 1: and so I wrote columns about that, people read it,
Speaker 1: showed up at a meeting A couple of other young
Speaker 1: black men showed up at the meeting and we killed it.
Speaker 1: And that was kind of like the beginning of my
Speaker 1: journey and the advocacy. It was because there was an
Speaker 1: issue in my community. I had a platform. I just
Speaker 1: spoke up. I didn't know the overall impact would be
Speaker 1: that we would never have a misdemeanor jail and baton
Speaker 1: rouge again. But I never stopped going to city council meetings. Wow, man,
Speaker 1: I mean that shows the importance of the city councilmen
Speaker 1: in the school board meetings. It's like the importance to
Speaker 1: that because a lot of us don't go to those
Speaker 1: council meets. We got enough time. We're working with Tide
Speaker 1: with sleep beat me too, me too. I think I
Speaker 1: think that that is the easy answer to why we
Speaker 1: don't do it. But what I realized is every one
Speaker 1: of us is paying taxes every day, right, and so
Speaker 1: when you're given to the government, if you opted not
Speaker 1: to be a part of the process, you're allowing people
Speaker 1: to decide with your money, to make decisions at a
Speaker 1: contrary to your beliefs. For me, if you if you're
Speaker 1: mad about the potholes in your neighborhood, that's a city councilmember.
Speaker 1: If you're mad about, you know, the lack of investment
Speaker 1: in your school system, that's your school board member. A
Speaker 1: lot of us don't even understand the different layers of
Speaker 1: government and what everybody does. And I know that because
Speaker 1: in running for office, people ask you about, well, this
Speaker 1: is this issue, and it's like I have no control
Speaker 1: over that. We got to learn the institutions and structures
Speaker 1: around us and then mobilize them to be powerful for us. Wow.
Speaker 1: Now when you decided, you know, okay, I'm gonna run
Speaker 1: for office after the school board meeting? What problems today? Well,
Speaker 1: when Cedric Richmond took the job with President Biden, to Cedric,
Speaker 1: I had a platform and an opportunity, and really people
Speaker 1: around the country and around Louisiana asked me to run.
Speaker 1: I wasn't looking at that at all. I was looking
Speaker 1: at this US Cenate race. We decided to run for
Speaker 1: Congress because it was like, this is an opportunity we
Speaker 1: didn't think was gonna open up Cedric when it took
Speaker 1: the job, Let's go for it. I'm proud of the
Speaker 1: race we ran. We raised five hundred thousand dollars in
Speaker 1: a three month period. That's amazing for a candidate like
Speaker 1: me and that race. We came within fifteen hundred votes
Speaker 1: of winning that election with a grassroots people power movement.
Speaker 1: And to put that in the perspective, the opposition raised
Speaker 1: millions of dollars and spent their first TV buy was
Speaker 1: six figures. Right. We spent thirty thousand dollars on TV
Speaker 1: and came within fifteen hundred votes because of the people
Speaker 1: power that we built on the ground. This time around,
Speaker 1: we have a deeper understanding of the science and the
Speaker 1: art of politics that we do need to be in
Speaker 1: the media spaces. So we got to raise the capital
Speaker 1: to do that. But we know that we know how
Speaker 1: to touch the communities and people in the state of
Speaker 1: Louisiana in a way that other people don't. I want
Speaker 1: to ask you, because you named a couple of examples,
Speaker 1: when did Gary Chambers Junior first realize first just in life,
Speaker 1: that your voice could actually change something. So I'm an
Speaker 1: ordained minister and always knew that at some point God
Speaker 1: would use my voice to speak to his people. My
Speaker 1: campaign slogans do good and seek Justice, which is Isaiah
Speaker 1: one and seventeen. Do Good, Seek Justice helped the widow,
Speaker 1: the orphan, Neil Preston and poor I lived by that,
Speaker 1: and this is really just an opportunity for me every
Speaker 1: time to live out my faith. Jesus was about healing
Speaker 1: the sick, right, and if he came to heal the sick,
Speaker 1: then widen medicare for all good for us. If that
Speaker 1: was a structure of our faith that we believe He
Speaker 1: could redeem, then we also have to have the knowledge
Speaker 1: to understand that medicine works, science works, and if we're
Speaker 1: paying into a system. The church get ten percent of
Speaker 1: the money from some of the people, the government get
Speaker 1: thirty percent of the money from all the people, they
Speaker 1: should be producing solutions in healthcare for the people of
Speaker 1: this country. Boy Garret, you've been cheating man, You old
Speaker 1: damn minister, and you got a background in media. They
Speaker 1: ain't even see you coming. No no, though, we see
Speaker 1: with a viral for your announced that you're running for
Speaker 1: Louisiana Center and you're smoking some weed, no doubt, talk
Speaker 1: about that. I think that we wanted to cut through
Speaker 1: the noise. I do smoke. Cannabis is not something that
Speaker 1: should be controversial anymore. Sixty eight percent of people in
Speaker 1: Louisiana believe that cannabis should be legalized recreationally, and in
Speaker 1: order to make sure that we destigmatize a lot of
Speaker 1: these things, people who have platform influence, whatever that is,
Speaker 1: they need to use that platform and influence to steer
Speaker 1: a conversation. It worked, It did cut through the noise,
Speaker 1: and it got us to talk about the real issues
Speaker 1: around Louisiana and cannabis. You got folks in Angola Penitentiary
Speaker 1: right now who are serving what amounts to a life
Speaker 1: sentence for basically simple possession of marijuana. That's wrong. While
Speaker 1: people in California, Illinois and other places New york Is
Speaker 1: don't come online people gonna make millions of dollars, but
Speaker 1: you got folks still sitting in jail for it. That's
Speaker 1: not right. You know. I saw that video and I said, man,
Speaker 1: Gary is such a threatned people. They might try to
Speaker 1: lock him up for smoking. To wee, I went to
Speaker 1: the most legal place in Louisiana you could go to
Speaker 1: do it and and help pass the policies in New
Speaker 1: Orleans last August, shout out to City Council President Hilena Moreno,
Speaker 1: who brought a piece of legislation that basically, if the
Speaker 1: police stop you in New Orleans and give you the citation,
Speaker 1: that it's automatically pardoned by the city council. So that's
Speaker 1: a new legislation that they used to work around the
Speaker 1: state policies that basically say you can't have it now.
Speaker 1: Somebody told me that you were supposed to see something
Speaker 1: in the video, but you got so high that you
Speaker 1: didn't even know. Nah after nah badah man. We always ready,
Speaker 1: I always ready. We got more with Gary Chambers Junior
Speaker 1: when we come back. He's running for Louisiana Senate. It's
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy
Speaker 1: angela Ye. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club
Speaker 1: was still kicking it with Gary Chambers Junior. He's running
Speaker 1: for Louisiana Senate. Charloman you know you also just uh,
Speaker 1: you did something that that I did some years ago,
Speaker 1: but they wouldn't let me air it on television. You
Speaker 1: burned the Confederate flag because I'm from South Carolina. So
Speaker 1: after you know that that devil Dylan Roof, you know,
Speaker 1: murdered the Manual nine. He was holding up the Confederate
Speaker 1: flag and his pictures and everything and then you know,
Speaker 1: bring new some scale the pole to bring the flag down.
Speaker 1: So I actually took the flag and shredded it on
Speaker 1: one of my talk shows back in the day on MTV.
Speaker 1: But if they wouldn't, they wouldn't let it air like
Speaker 1: we shredded it. Through it up as confetti and everything.
Speaker 1: But you actually burned it in your visit. But we'll
Speaker 1: prompted that. Eric on my team came to me and
Speaker 1: said that he thought we should build a conversation around
Speaker 1: race in America. We should burn the Confederate flag. As
Speaker 1: soon as he said that, I said, yeah, because everything
Speaker 1: we are dealing with in the American government right now
Speaker 1: that is inequitable is rooted in the Confederacy. We're watching
Speaker 1: people right now in every state in the South attempt
Speaker 1: to disenfranchised black voters. I live in a house district
Speaker 1: that the legislatures attempting to jerrymander right now to put
Speaker 1: the community I've lived in my whole life in a
Speaker 1: district that connects to a community that has no similarities
Speaker 1: between each other, right, and all of it's rooted in
Speaker 1: the heritage of bigotry and racism. It's been since eighteen
Speaker 1: seventy three and paint this picture. Now eighteen seventy three,
Speaker 1: you have PBS Pinchback, who is a black man elected
Speaker 1: to the United States Senate. He's never seated, Okay, prior
Speaker 1: to that, he's the president of the Louisiana State Senate.
Speaker 1: Black folk running around here talking about not voting and
Speaker 1: not participating in the process. When one of the first
Speaker 1: things we did it wouldn't just go build businesses. It
Speaker 1: was elected of black folks to the state legislatures in
Speaker 1: South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana. Louisiana had all these black men
Speaker 1: that we had. Oscar Dunn was the lieutenant governor of
Speaker 1: the Louisiana darkskin black man, right, And this image was
Speaker 1: shown to all of these people in the state of Louisiana.
Speaker 1: And I post this whenever I go live. I have
Speaker 1: an image behind me of these men. And you end
Speaker 1: up with a government that then builds a litany of
Speaker 1: structures to prevent that image from ever existing. PBS Pinchback
Speaker 1: becomes the governor of Louisiana. Because Oscar Dunn dies, Pinchback
Speaker 1: becomes the governor. He's the governor for like thirty days.
Speaker 1: It's a hundred years before Douglas Wilder becomes the governor
Speaker 1: of Virginia. Wow, when we talk about black history, these
Speaker 1: people were methodical. Once they recognized the power of the
Speaker 1: black vote immediately after emancipation, they did everything they could
Speaker 1: to strip us of our power. And now we're just
Speaker 1: giving it away. Fifty percent of us showing up ain't
Speaker 1: fifty percent of us paying the taxes. And so when
Speaker 1: when you talk about burning Confederate flag, for me, it's
Speaker 1: like until we burn the remnants of the Confederacy from
Speaker 1: every piece of legislation that's in this government, we're gonna
Speaker 1: continue to have problems. Whether you look at cannabis legislation
Speaker 1: rooted in racism, You look at the housing issues we
Speaker 1: have rooted in racism and red lining, You look at
Speaker 1: the banking issues we have rooted in racism and not
Speaker 1: giving us loans from the gi bal and all of
Speaker 1: those things. Every system and structure of this country was
Speaker 1: designed around racist policies to prevent equity. What you're talking about,
Speaker 1: you know, even we're burning the flag, it's what I
Speaker 1: like to call the de gratification of America. And I
Speaker 1: liking it to the denoxification in Germany, because we're still
Speaker 1: a country that still celebrates the Confederacy, So essentially we're
Speaker 1: celebrating white supremacy. We're celebrating oppression, like everything from Roberty
Speaker 1: Lead schools, schools named after him in highways or scrom
Speaker 1: Thermin highways, or the Confederate flag, all of that. So, yes,
Speaker 1: you gotta get rid of all of that, all of
Speaker 1: that imagery, because substance, substance, and sybolism matter. Right, tell
Speaker 1: me why you even put up Robberty Lead schools in
Speaker 1: the forties and fifties, not after he died, Right, you
Speaker 1: wait a decade because you use it as a fear
Speaker 1: tactic against people in our community. And then you had
Speaker 1: black folks going to schools with people waving Confederate flags
Speaker 1: until the early two thous right, you know, like literally
Speaker 1: there are schools in Louisiana that until the last decade
Speaker 1: had separated proms. Even when you talk about imagery and symbolism,
Speaker 1: you think about a movie like Birth of the Nation
Speaker 1: in nineteen fifteen, there's a scene where they show all
Speaker 1: of these black elected officials just basically being ratchet as hell, barefoot,
Speaker 1: you know, drinking whiskey, eating fried chicken, all crazy because
Speaker 1: they wanted to show the image of this is what
Speaker 1: happens if you vote black people in off and they
Speaker 1: do it every day. You know, I grew up in
Speaker 1: North Baton Rouge. I grew a middle class black You know,
Speaker 1: I don't have the story of people robbing and stealing
Speaker 1: and killing in my neighborhood. And my neighborhood was one
Speaker 1: hundred percent black, But we don't tell those stories when
Speaker 1: we talk about black communities and then every city in
Speaker 1: this country, they exist, but all we talk about is
Speaker 1: the zip coach where the problems are. But the zip
Speaker 1: codes where the problems are exists because you won't deal
Speaker 1: with the structural issues and communities. So if when you're
Speaker 1: elected to Louisiana Senate, what's what's the first thing that
Speaker 1: you're gonna do? Well, one of the first things is
Speaker 1: to really figure out how do we move the economy
Speaker 1: forward to work for working class people. If we give
Speaker 1: people the ability to feed their family, I trust the
Speaker 1: genius of the human capacity that they can produce for
Speaker 1: themselves a better outcome. I think we also have to
Speaker 1: look at the government structure that exists. I thought Biden's
Speaker 1: Build Back Better plan was something that would have helped
Speaker 1: a lot of people. We got to figure out how
Speaker 1: to you structure policy and get it past. You got
Speaker 1: to extend the Martins in the Senate. Having somebody like
Speaker 1: me increases the ability to decrease the power of somebody
Speaker 1: like Joe Manchin and Christen Cinema. And so the election
Speaker 1: of me here, Charles Booker, Mandela Barnes, Valdemmings, all of
Speaker 1: these people is critically important because that is the only
Speaker 1: way we end up in the capacity to make sure
Speaker 1: that our voices aren't muted in the Senate. They've only
Speaker 1: been eleven people black folks in the history of this
Speaker 1: country to serve in the Senate. You have the capacity
Speaker 1: to send four or five more in November. And so,
Speaker 1: regardless of how pissed off you are with Biden or
Speaker 1: what you feel about the administration isn't doing, you have
Speaker 1: the capacity to enhance the checks and balances right now
Speaker 1: by sending people there that can help us pass. So
Speaker 1: now people will say on a local level, right when
Speaker 1: it comes to some of the things that you name,
Speaker 1: whether it's cannabis right or you know, cannabis, they say, okay,
Speaker 1: we'll give you give certain people licenses. But then you
Speaker 1: need liquid, and most of our people don't have the liquid.
Speaker 1: For us, we have to partner up with you know,
Speaker 1: a white person that has the liquids, who is really
Speaker 1: not our business. Or you talk about real estate and
Speaker 1: they say, okay, you know you could building these places,
Speaker 1: but to building these places is not just black people
Speaker 1: building these places. So what happens is a lot of
Speaker 1: the white people that come in there and they develop
Speaker 1: in those places. So we really have nothing. So as
Speaker 1: local how are you going to help the people locally
Speaker 1: to make sure that they can have businesses, that they
Speaker 1: can create generational wealth, and that they can have better
Speaker 1: school systems. How do you plan on attacking that? Well,
Speaker 1: I think one of the major things a US senator
Speaker 1: has a whole lot of influence and power, right and
Speaker 1: to be able to leverage the resources that you're gonna
Speaker 1: bring into the state to make sure that when those
Speaker 1: policies come in, they're equitable. Once cannabis is legalized around
Speaker 1: the country, there's gonna be federal subsidies for that. There's
Speaker 1: gonna be federal resources attached to that. How do we
Speaker 1: build those policies to ensure that whatever those subsidies are
Speaker 1: are attached to an equitable premise that we ensure that
Speaker 1: if you're gonna get this money, you got to commit
Speaker 1: x amount of dollars to be spent with black and
Speaker 1: minority businesses. You have to commit to how these partnerships
Speaker 1: are structured that not minority partners, that they need to
Speaker 1: be majority partners on these things, and figure out the
Speaker 1: way that we build that equity, and then really using
Speaker 1: the bullet poolpit. One of the most powerful things that
Speaker 1: a legislative can do is use their voice, and a
Speaker 1: lot of times they're scared to speak out on certain
Speaker 1: issues they don't want to offend nobody. I don't really
Speaker 1: care about pissing people off. I care about getting stuff done,
Speaker 1: and so if it means that I upset you in
Speaker 1: order to get you to do what needs to be
Speaker 1: done legislatively, then I'm gonna call you out and do that.
Speaker 1: And committing the free and all of those people that
Speaker 1: did those absolutely the President Biden needs to do everything
Speaker 1: in his power at this point to do good on
Speaker 1: the things he's said in the campaign trail decriminalizing cannabis.
Speaker 1: What he committed to is decriminalized. For me, I fully
Speaker 1: support legalizing, but at least do what you said you was, lawyer.
Speaker 1: We got more with Gary Chambers Junior when we come back.
Speaker 1: He's running for Louisiana Senate. Mister breakfast Club for morning
Speaker 1: everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. Were still kicking it with Gary
Speaker 1: Chambers Junior. He's running for Louisiana Senate, charloman One thing
Speaker 1: you mentioned about all of these cenacias that are up
Speaker 1: for grabs, you know this year, all these people that's
Speaker 1: running for Senate. The problem I have with Democrats is
Speaker 1: they don't speak out against the senators that are holding
Speaker 1: up progress like the cinemas in the mansions, and they're
Speaker 1: not speaking up for the people who are running for
Speaker 1: these Senate chives that could probably, you know, tip the
Speaker 1: balance of power. So you look at Senator John Nnedy,
Speaker 1: who you're running against. He already got the endorsement of
Speaker 1: Trump right when you're trying to underseat him. Why do
Speaker 1: you think Democrats aren't speaking up for people like you?
Speaker 1: We do. We actually need the Democratic Party in the
Speaker 1: state of Louisiana right now to make sure we're the
Speaker 1: only candidate in the race. We know we've raised more
Speaker 1: money than everybody else. We've clearly built the national conversation.
Speaker 1: The Democratic Central Senate Central Committee should join us and
Speaker 1: prioritize Louisiana. Louisiana is a state of four million people.
Speaker 1: That's Houston. If the DNC can't invest in Louisiana and
Speaker 1: flip Louisiana, fold a tent up and close the whole
Speaker 1: thing up. Close the whole thing up. Because if you
Speaker 1: can tell me that you can flip Texas but you
Speaker 1: can't get Louisiana and Louisiana has a Democrat as governor,
Speaker 1: it's because you're not making that investment. And so for me,
Speaker 1: I think that what we're trying to do is show
Speaker 1: what is a new age of politics, that you can
Speaker 1: be free in your ideology and your thought process, you
Speaker 1: can tell the truth, you can represent the people, and
Speaker 1: you can look good while you do. So none of
Speaker 1: my content is ever going to be like cookie cutter stuff.
Speaker 1: We intend to shock your senses. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: apologize for that because the only way I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: you to pay attention to the state that's ranked fiftith
Speaker 1: in the nation is if I shock your senses, and
Speaker 1: if that gets you to pay attention to the fact
Speaker 1: that I live in a state that's fiftifth in crime,
Speaker 1: forty seventh in the economy, forty ninth in the environment,
Speaker 1: forty six in healthcare. To say that that's a place
Speaker 1: that we need to make investment, that I'm gonna keep
Speaker 1: doing it all year long. You think this old establishment
Speaker 1: that is Democrats will accept somebody like a Gary Chambers Junior.
Speaker 1: I don't really look for acceptance. I get elected. There
Speaker 1: ain't got no choice. I'm there, uh and my vote.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use that the way that I believe that
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be used to help out the people
Speaker 1: of my state. What about Cedric et Cedric showing up?
Speaker 1: You know, me and Cedric, we gotta put the pressure
Speaker 1: on him. If now me and Cedric have a decent
Speaker 1: enough relationship. I don't know if he was thrilled that
Speaker 1: I ran against Troy, But Troy and I who the
Speaker 1: new congress Congressman Troy Carter, we have a great relationship.
Speaker 1: We built that through the campaign trail. I got a
Speaker 1: great deal of respect for Cedric. He's limited in his
Speaker 1: capacity because he works for the White House. UM. But
Speaker 1: there are people who I hope that he can nod
Speaker 1: his head too and say, you know what, I think
Speaker 1: the Brothers the right person to be in this position.
Speaker 1: And I think that whatever the people of Louisiana do,
Speaker 1: we have to ask ourselves, especially black folk, how long
Speaker 1: are we gonna help elect people who continue to disappoint us.
Speaker 1: Right now we're dealing with the Ronald Green case and
Speaker 1: Louisiana black man killed by Louisiana State Police text messages
Speaker 1: found by Governor John Bill Edwards to have known the
Speaker 1: details of what happened to this brother. We need to
Speaker 1: ensure that when we put our vote behind somebody, Democrat, Republican,
Speaker 1: whatever you are, that you deliver for us. And what
Speaker 1: I like about you man, You know, first of all,
Speaker 1: Democrats messaging sucks. Yours is very clear. You know why
Speaker 1: they don't understand where the post of the people is.
Speaker 1: They spend so much time in these boxes debating policy,
Speaker 1: and that is the job, Okay, that you are not
Speaker 1: in touch with the community in a way. There's no
Speaker 1: other politician in America that would have smoked weed in
Speaker 1: a video or burn the Confederate flag in the first
Speaker 1: two adds that they did. Yet both of those We
Speaker 1: raised six figures yesterday, six figures yesterday from that flag.
Speaker 1: Not because I don't believe the majority of people are
Speaker 1: racist and the majority of people want us to move
Speaker 1: beyond that, but we allow a certain group of people
Speaker 1: to dominate the conversation. And doctor Keene told us about
Speaker 1: the white moderate right right that they were almost as
Speaker 1: bad as the Clue Clubs Clanner. And so we allow
Speaker 1: those people to steal too much of the conversation. And
Speaker 1: that's why we don't produce no change. How can people
Speaker 1: doing it? Because you talk about donate, how can people
Speaker 1: donating chambers from Louisiana dot com. Yes, and I appreciate
Speaker 1: that because it is a winnable race. The truth is,
Speaker 1: if black folk and brown folk and white folk in
Speaker 1: Louisiana could elect John Bell Edwards twice twenty fifteen and
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, then that is proof a Democrat can win
Speaker 1: in this state. The question that we have to ask
Speaker 1: ourselves is in the second blackest state in America, why
Speaker 1: is it that there's been a hundred years since a
Speaker 1: black person that has been elected statewide in that state?
Speaker 1: And we need to do everything in our power this
Speaker 1: year to redeem what is wrong in that, And I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna be perfect. I'm not gonna promise you are
Speaker 1: you or anybody else. And I'm never gonna make a mistake.
Speaker 1: I'm never gonna say something about youdn't have said, or
Speaker 1: step out of line. But what I will promise is
Speaker 1: that I'll be accountable to the people and show up
Speaker 1: about the issues that I say I'm gonna show up for.
Speaker 1: Do you need white people to vote for you to win? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Let me say this, we need all people to vote
Speaker 1: for us. But the truth is John Kennedy was elected
Speaker 1: with five hundred and thirty six thousand votes. There are
Speaker 1: one point two million black folks in Louisiana. How many votes.
Speaker 1: Five hundred and thirty six thousand votes is how much
Speaker 1: John Kennedy was elected with. There are one point two
Speaker 1: million black people in Louisiana that can more of us
Speaker 1: that can vote, that can vote. It's interesting to me, man,
Speaker 1: because you know, being from South Carolina, a lot of
Speaker 1: times it's habits that a lot of these people just
Speaker 1: end up back into these seats. Right. So when I
Speaker 1: saw it states the Ara's been in Georgia, I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: I think we can change things in these southern places,
Speaker 1: the south ist way. It's that you know, I have
Speaker 1: this this logic of a new Black South, and I
Speaker 1: need y'all to go one hid and switch your residency
Speaker 1: to a southern state. I know you're gonna do your
Speaker 1: business in New York. But the best capacity for black
Speaker 1: people in America to flip political power and financial power
Speaker 1: is by moving back to the South. Black people in
Speaker 1: sixty percent of black folks live in the South. Right,
Speaker 1: we are never gonna flip California. We're never gonna flip
Speaker 1: New York. There's four million people in Louisiana. If another
Speaker 1: four hundred thousand black folks move to that state, we
Speaker 1: increase the voting population. When you talk about billionaires, and
Speaker 1: we love to talk about black wealth and all the
Speaker 1: money we get, Jay Z, Beyonce, Oprah Jordan, all those billionaires.
Speaker 1: I love the fact that they billionaires. But you know
Speaker 1: what the government has every year in Louisiana. That's a
Speaker 1: thirty billion dollars a year budget that we get to
Speaker 1: put a governor over to make decisions about thirty billion
Speaker 1: dollars a year that we could do in six or
Speaker 1: seven states. Right, you go from three black US Senators,
Speaker 1: and you can count Tim Scott out, you know, because
Speaker 1: you don't really vote for nothing. Rid of us. So
Speaker 1: you can go from three black US Senators to potentially
Speaker 1: seven eight black US Senators, potentially sixteen if you go
Speaker 1: eight states where we get two black senators in both
Speaker 1: of those, that's a block of the US Senate. When
Speaker 1: you talk about trillions of dollars of impact that you
Speaker 1: get to influence, it is a hard task that we
Speaker 1: have put on Corey Booker and Raphael Warnt because that's
Speaker 1: two black folks in a room with eighty plus other
Speaker 1: people that are not full of color, and we are
Speaker 1: asking them to make those people give a damn about us.
Speaker 1: We need to send them some reinforcements, and we do
Speaker 1: that by being strategic. Everybody ain't gonna move to the South.
Speaker 1: I understand that I'm not asking everybody to move to
Speaker 1: the South. But if you can send your kids to
Speaker 1: college in the South and tell your kids start their
Speaker 1: family in the South, if those who have resources can
Speaker 1: can live in multiple places, buy you a property in
Speaker 1: voting the South. To ask this question, who does Jay
Speaker 1: Z and Beyonce have more influence over Gavin Newsom in
Speaker 1: California or John Bill Edward was okay IVY in Louisiana
Speaker 1: and Alabama, John Bell ed was kV Gonna lose their
Speaker 1: mind if the queen calls. You know, Gavin Newsom talking
Speaker 1: to popular people all the time because he's the governor
Speaker 1: of California, sixty million people in this state. I think
Speaker 1: they got property in Louisiana. There were some property in
Speaker 1: New Orleans that I don't know. I think they recently
Speaker 1: sold the property. I think that's the one that burned
Speaker 1: down on one time. Yeah, but even leaven with that
Speaker 1: like donate some finances. I mean, look, look how close
Speaker 1: Jamie Harrison came to you know, unseating. We can do this, man.
Speaker 1: What we need is Black America to stand up in
Speaker 1: a way that is substantial for us financially, that gives
Speaker 1: us the power to go win this. We know that
Speaker 1: we can mobilize the people. We just got to have
Speaker 1: a resource to do it. And no black candidate Cleo
Speaker 1: Fields in Louisiana was the last black person in nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety six to have a real shot at running against
Speaker 1: somebody statewide. We got that opportunity if we got the resources.
Speaker 1: So where can they donate to your campaign. Tea Chambers
Speaker 1: from Louisiana dot Com. You can follow us on all
Speaker 1: the social media that Gear Chambers Junior. I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: a donation now and tell us to other people who
Speaker 1: are running. Said, you have Malcolm Kenyada in Pennsylvania. You
Speaker 1: have Val Demmings in Florida. You have Charles Booker in Kentucky.
Speaker 1: You have Mandela Barns in Wisconsin. All of these people
Speaker 1: are running for the US Senate right now, and if
Speaker 1: they have the financial supporting, the capacity, they can win.
Speaker 1: And also Senator war Knocker is running for reelection and
Speaker 1: Stay Sadiams is running for the governor Georgia. And when
Speaker 1: you do everything we can to support those people to
Speaker 1: get them there, Chambers from Louisiana dot Com. Make a
Speaker 1: donation right now. Man, that's right. It's Gary Chambers Junior.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, Go morning. This is the rumor
Speaker 1: report with Angela years All right, Well, a lot of
Speaker 1: excitement building up over the halftime show at the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: And doctor Dre was at the press conference yesterday and
Speaker 1: he was um talking about what's going to be happening
Speaker 1: for the halftime show, and here is what he had
Speaker 1: to say about what's going to be happening, wardrobe malfunctions
Speaker 1: and things like that. Can we afford any surprises I'm
Speaker 1: not talking about that. Yes, yes, but I'm not going
Speaker 1: to talk as there will be surprised. Absolutely, there won't
Speaker 1: be any wardrobe Snow to keep your shirt on? All right,
Speaker 1: I may, I may not. No, I have to talk
Speaker 1: to snoop, I'll penises like whoa okay es right, okay,
Speaker 1: and he doesn't want to watch now and he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to watch now. No, you don't want to watch
Speaker 1: no shirtless man. No people you said earlier you didn't
Speaker 1: want to watch if that wasn't happening. That is true.
Speaker 1: But here I would like, I mean, that would be incredible,
Speaker 1: right like that would be like that would make Janet
Speaker 1: Jackson's breasts look like nothing. If Emine bullis penis out
Speaker 1: on stage, that would ensure no rappers ever performing super
Speaker 1: Bowl shows ever again? Right all right now, as far
Speaker 1: as far as the performances and any surprises, here's what
Speaker 1: doctor Dre had to say. We're going to open more
Speaker 1: doors for UM hip hop artists in the future and
Speaker 1: making sure that the NFL understands that this is what
Speaker 1: it should have been a long time ago. You understand
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So, yeah, we're gonna shore exactly how
Speaker 1: professional we could be, how dope we could be on stage,
Speaker 1: and how it's how exciting we're going to be to
Speaker 1: the fans. So we're gonna let you know what it is.
Speaker 1: I don't like the professional part of that statement, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. That's because sounds like respectability politics
Speaker 1: in a way, like, oh, we're gonna show you that
Speaker 1: rappers canna be professionally. We know rappers are professional. You're
Speaker 1: a billionaire, Drake. You're proving that already. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean. Go out there and do your thing. I
Speaker 1: can't wait to watch. Personally, we ain't got nothing to
Speaker 1: proved to nobody. Dy late. If you ask me to
Speaker 1: the NFL's late, they're all late. We don't have nothing
Speaker 1: to prove to anybody on that stage on Sunday. All right. Well,
Speaker 1: there is rumors going around though that fifty will be
Speaker 1: making a surprise appearance on that stage. So I saw
Speaker 1: that's what a lot of people are saying. HHDX has
Speaker 1: said it. Hip Hop DX has said it also, So
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. It makes sense, right, It would
Speaker 1: only makes sense. It would only makes sense, like you cannot.
Speaker 1: I mean even when I saw that line up and
Speaker 1: I was like, damn what fifty not a part of this?
Speaker 1: I means Luther Kendrick and you know of course the
Speaker 1: Queen Mary j blog, but fifty should definitely be up there, absolutely,
Speaker 1: and he's in town by the way. All right, now
Speaker 1: we'll see. Now. Eminem did a sit down with Sway
Speaker 1: on Shade forty five and he talked about some things like,
Speaker 1: first of all, did you know he's nervous? I tell
Speaker 1: you it's a nerve wracking Okay, nerve wracking like this
Speaker 1: is like it's to me. It's like there's nothing more
Speaker 1: final than live TV, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: like if you fuck up your up, he's there forever.
Speaker 1: He's done live TV before and before and before. But
Speaker 1: I guess this is the biggest stage, right, That's what
Speaker 1: they say. Man, you can still get nervous, of course,
Speaker 1: and glad it should be natural in a case like this,
Speaker 1: but nobody on that stage has anything to prove to
Speaker 1: anyone at all. And then he's excited to be on
Speaker 1: stage with with Kendrick Lamar and here's what he had
Speaker 1: to say about k Dot Kendrick is uh like the
Speaker 1: very top top tier of lyricists, not just to this generation,
Speaker 1: but of all time. That's a fact no lie told
Speaker 1: all right, and Mary Jay Bligh sat down with the
Speaker 1: Cruise Show. I mean, everybody's doing their rounds right now
Speaker 1: because we are so excited for this halftime show. And
Speaker 1: here's what you had to say about her performance. And
Speaker 1: as you know, they don't get paid for this. All
Speaker 1: the production costs are taken care of, but these artists
Speaker 1: don't get paid. Here's what she had to say. Really,
Speaker 1: you know they always say you don't get paid to
Speaker 1: do the Super Bowl? Is that what's happening is that
Speaker 1: it's just a major look right, I mean, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to get listen. You're gonna be paid for the
Speaker 1: rest of your life off of this, Yes, man, people
Speaker 1: don't want to be knocking at you. It opened so
Speaker 1: many doors. You don't have to pay me. But if
Speaker 1: he was paying, it would be a lot of money.
Speaker 1: You know, this is opportunity of a lifetime. Man. Em
Speaker 1: says that it moves yourself. This is the opportunity of
Speaker 1: a lifetime. You feel me. You lose yourself. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: got to lose yourself real. Let's not get it twisted.
Speaker 1: Mary has an album that comes out today and so
Speaker 1: the snoop, so the streaming numbers are going to be
Speaker 1: through the roof. That was well played. What song that
Speaker 1: this is Mary gonna do? Remember Mary was trying to
Speaker 1: pick what songs she wanted to do. I want her
Speaker 1: to do real Yes, she got you, that's a that's
Speaker 1: that's yeah. I wanted to do real Love. I wanted
Speaker 1: to do real love. Man imagine hippop version. No, I
Speaker 1: want her to do the regular version with the lunch
Speaker 1: room table beat, you know what I mean. Introduced that
Speaker 1: to a whole new generation version next year. Next year,
Speaker 1: the NFL should have Mary J. Blige to do our
Speaker 1: own Two Bowl halftime show, because she could do our
Speaker 1: own Two Bowl halftime show by herself. Katy Perry could
Speaker 1: do a half time show. Mary J. Blige absolutely positively
Speaker 1: can absolutely and flashing back to fifty cent. By the way,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to give a shout out to PowerBook
Speaker 1: for Force. That's the one the stars shows to secure
Speaker 1: as a Tommy that got three point three million multi
Speaker 1: platforms vieused in the US across Stars Linear on Sunday.
Speaker 1: So that is the most watched premiere ever in Stars

Speaker 1: shout out to them for that. Yeah, I'm gonna catch
Speaker 1: up with that this weekend. Drop on a clues bomb

Speaker 1: black crime crime stories. And he has so much more
Speaker 1: on the table. That's the crazy party. Has about four
Speaker 1: or five shows coming, and he put Stars on the map.
Speaker 1: The fact that he went to Stars, a network that
Speaker 1: you know, people weren't really checking for launch Power. Now
Speaker 1: you got this whole Power universe and BMF come on, man,
Speaker 1: that's it's unprecedent, it's unpresidented for anybody to do that.
Speaker 1: Definitely have to shout out fifty for that. And they
Speaker 1: said Power Break for a forced that premiere couple with
Speaker 1: Power Book two Ghost Season two finale on Sunday, broke records.

Speaker 1: who you give me your dog? Two? You know? Four
Speaker 1: after the hour? Man, We need to talk to this
Speaker 1: middle school in Connectic, Connecticut called John F. Kennedy Middle School. Um,
Speaker 1: and let's talk peach the gate. Yeah you haven't heard that.
Speaker 1: Haven't heard that that phrase in a while. Right, we'll
Speaker 1: talk about it, man, all right, we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, Go morning, So Breakfast Club, your
Speaker 1: mornings will never be the same. The General Insurance a
Speaker 1: quality insurance company that has been saving people money for
Speaker 1: nearly sixty years. What if y'all is dj MB and
Speaker 1: you should take a closer look at the General called
Speaker 1: eight under General or visit the General dot com the
Speaker 1: General Auto Insurance Services in an insurance agency Nashville, Tennessee.
Speaker 1: Some restrictions. Charlo Mayne say that game. Don't get out
Speaker 1: the shape man you are? You? Donkey today does not discriminate.
Speaker 1: I might not have the song of today, but I
Speaker 1: got to donkey that. So if you ever feel I
Speaker 1: need to be a donkey man, hit it with the
Speaker 1: Prakfast Club. Bitches. Please don't give today today. Wow, don't
Speaker 1: here today for Friday, February eleventh, schools to John F.
Speaker 1: Kennedy Middle School and Connecticut in particular, a teacher named
Speaker 1: Bree Wharton. She's the district's health and Physical Education cord
Speaker 1: and they're there and Superintendent Christopher Dreesick I think I'm
Speaker 1: pronouncing his last name right now. I have extreme love
Speaker 1: for public school teachers dropping the Colols bonds for all
Speaker 1: the public school teams shot down because my mother has
Speaker 1: been a public school teacher in South Carolina for as
Speaker 1: long as I've been alive, and I understand the impact
Speaker 1: that public school teachers have on kids, and I know
Speaker 1: how hard that job is because you have to truly
Speaker 1: love it because it's not like the pay as your incentive.
Speaker 1: You have to really care for these kids in their
Speaker 1: well being. Lesson plans, assignments, all of these things teachers
Speaker 1: come up with the educate kids. We appreciate you dropping
Speaker 1: another clue's bomb for teachers. Man, public school teachers. We
Speaker 1: know it's not easy, and in this era of social media,
Speaker 1: video games, all types of things just pulling at these
Speaker 1: kids attention, cutting through to these children and creating things
Speaker 1: that can actually appeal to these kids is tough. So
Speaker 1: I'm not judging, okay, but as a parent of a
Speaker 1: middle schooler, I would be concerned about this lesson plan
Speaker 1: that came out of JFK Middle School. I'm holding it
Speaker 1: in my hand right now, okay, And the title is
Speaker 1: Pizza in Consent. Okay. Basically, kids at JFK Middle School
Speaker 1: in Connecticut were instructed to use pizza as a metaphor
Speaker 1: for sex and asked to cite their favorite toppings. For example,
Speaker 1: cheese was for kissing and olives were forgiving oral. Basically,
Speaker 1: they compared ordering a pizza the receiving consent. I guess
Speaker 1: I can't make this kind of stuff up. Listen to
Speaker 1: Eric Sonzi, director about for Parents Defending Education. She did
Speaker 1: an interview with ABC seven KATV to describe the assignment.
Speaker 1: The assignment started out with a sentence that said, yes,
Speaker 1: pizza can be a metaphor for sex, and then it
Speaker 1: went on to explain that just like when friends have
Speaker 1: to agree on pizza toppings when they're sharing a pizza,
Speaker 1: that people need to agree on what they're willing to
Speaker 1: do and not do in terms of consent. And so
Speaker 1: they decided to have the students list their sexual likes
Speaker 1: and dislikes and then draw them on a pizza as
Speaker 1: pizza toppings. Now, again, these are eighth graders, and it's
Speaker 1: important to keep in mind under fifteen percent of eighth
Speaker 1: graders have had sex. So they're being asked very personal
Speaker 1: questions on a topic that many of them are totally
Speaker 1: inexperienced with and likely uncomfortable talking about in school. This
Speaker 1: is middle school. How many toppings do you think of
Speaker 1: animal pizza in middle school? Now? I'm not a conspiracy theorist,
Speaker 1: but I enjoy a great conspiracy theory, and Pizza Gate
Speaker 1: was a great conspiracy theory. You remember Each Gate, don't you?
Speaker 1: Had a false allegation that the Clintons used to comt
Speaker 1: Ping Pong pizza restaurant and watched in DC as a
Speaker 1: front for a pedophile sex ring in the back room
Speaker 1: was supposedly used for kidnapping and kidnapping and trafficking children. Okay, now,
Speaker 1: of course all of this was proven to be false,
Speaker 1: but it made a lot of noise a right, the
Speaker 1: owner of Ping Pong and his staff received death threats,
Speaker 1: people protested outside of the restaurant. A guy actually went
Speaker 1: in the restaurant and fired a gun at an employee.
Speaker 1: See these fake stories be having real world consequences. Okay,
Speaker 1: people believe these conspiracy theories, and when you promote these
Speaker 1: false and reckless conspiracy theories, bad things happen. I'm saying
Speaker 1: all that to say JFK Middle School in Connecticut has
Speaker 1: done nothing but contributed to that conspiracy theory. I don't
Speaker 1: even know if pizza gate is still a thing, but
Speaker 1: this right here is going to resurrect it. All right. Listen,
Speaker 1: my daughter the day grade, she's thirteen. These kids are
Speaker 1: watching shows like Euphoria. These kids have social media. These
Speaker 1: kids talk amongst each other. Do you remember when you
Speaker 1: were thirteen, twelve, eleven, whatever age we were in middle school,
Speaker 1: we was already talking about sex in a real way.
Speaker 1: So I can only imagine if all the access these
Speaker 1: kids have now what their conversations are like. So you
Speaker 1: don't need stunt like this. Just talk to the kids. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's talk to them, all right, listen, let me let
Speaker 1: me reach out some of this. This is why they
Speaker 1: use the metaphor for sex. They say, when you order
Speaker 1: your pizza with friends, everyone checks in about each other's preferences.
Speaker 1: Some people might be veg and some people might be
Speaker 1: gluten free. Others might love pineapple while others prefer pepperoni.
Speaker 1: Some might not like pizza at all. If you're a
Speaker 1: vegetarian but your friend is a meat lover, sharing a
Speaker 1: pizza is gonna bring up a lot of issues. You
Speaker 1: don't know who you can share your pizza with unless
Speaker 1: you ask, Okay, didn't they say the same goals with sex? No,
Speaker 1: what are talking about? The metaphor to make no sense?
Speaker 1: The correlation makes no sense. You have to check in
Speaker 1: with your partners and ask for their preferences. Your partner
Speaker 1: might be comfortable with one sexual activity but not another.
Speaker 1: Maybe your partners only want to be touched a certain way,
Speaker 1: or maybe your partners prefer to use certain language, or
Speaker 1: maybe they don't want to have sex at all. You'll
Speaker 1: never know your wants, desires, and you'll never know if
Speaker 1: your wants, designs, and boundaries are compatible with theirs unless
Speaker 1: you ask. No, I don't want y'all asking my daughter
Speaker 1: about any of that. And once again, furthermore, how many
Speaker 1: toppings do you think these kids have had in middle school?
Speaker 1: Middle school? I would hope these kids are virgins. Okay,
Speaker 1: just playing cheese pizzas matter of fact, no cheese, no tomato, sauce,
Speaker 1: just raw dough. You know that haven't even been putting
Speaker 1: up in yet. All right. Amanda, who is a parent
Speaker 1: from that school district, took to social media to express
Speaker 1: her discuss with the assignment. Let's listen to Amanda. Just
Speaker 1: last week, a school assignment and JFK labeled pizza and
Speaker 1: content were sent out for students. What's pizza got to
Speaker 1: do with it? You wonder we can use pizza as
Speaker 1: a metaphor for sex. Those are the first two lines
Speaker 1: of this assignment, which are centered around establishing consent and boundaries,
Speaker 1: except for page two, where it takes it one step
Speaker 1: further in states. Now that you know the metaphor for sex,
Speaker 1: let's explore your preference, draw and color your favorite type
Speaker 1: of pizza. Mirror these preferences in relation to sex. Here
Speaker 1: are some examples, like cheese equals kissing, dislikes allives equals
Speaker 1: giving oral. Since one has become acceptable for a teacher
Speaker 1: to ask a student what their sexual wants, desires, and
Speaker 1: boundaries are, maybe our board members would like to answer
Speaker 1: this assignment and share their thoughts, just like our eighth
Speaker 1: grade students were requested to do. Now of course, the
Speaker 1: school is currently backtracking. Superintendent Christopher Dreesi says it was
Speaker 1: a mistake and the assignments had been inadvertently sent to
Speaker 1: the students. Basically, they are claiming they sent the pizza
Speaker 1: to the wrong house, okay, he said. While the assignment
Speaker 1: was inappropriate, there was no hidden agenda. He said while
Speaker 1: addressing the parents, there was no secret cabal to indoctrinate
Speaker 1: kids on something. Let me tell you, man, if you
Speaker 1: know you have to, you know, explain that there's no
Speaker 1: secret cabal to indoctrinate kids. If a school superintendent has
Speaker 1: to explain that, all right, then my kids might be
Speaker 1: in the wrong school, all right. An explanation like that
Speaker 1: is just I don't know, man. I just feel like
Speaker 1: this assignment is prompting kids to become sexually active before
Speaker 1: the time. And what does pizza have to do with consent?
Speaker 1: I still don't even know that, all right. Choosing what
Speaker 1: to put on your p when you are ordering with
Speaker 1: a group, it's hard enough by itself. Now you trying
Speaker 1: to make it a metaphor for sex, And even after
Speaker 1: it's been explained, I still don't know what any of
Speaker 1: this has to do with consent. All right, just talk
Speaker 1: to these kids, they're young adults. Speak to them as such.
Speaker 1: I promise they can handle it. But pizza as a
Speaker 1: metaphor for consent, they cannot. And what's the topic for antal?
Speaker 1: Please give John F. Kennedy Middle School in Connecticut the
Speaker 1: Biggessye huh, my kids ain't eating pizza no more. That's
Speaker 1: what you got out of that. That's what you got
Speaker 1: out of that. That's what you got out of that,
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. And what is the time? What is the
Speaker 1: topic for anal? Now? Just that? Can y'all? Can? I
Speaker 1: just want to know? I just want to know. I
Speaker 1: just want to because they only put two. They put
Speaker 1: cheese and they puts olives. No alives was oral sex
Speaker 1: and cheese was kissing. I would like to know what y'all?
Speaker 1: The topic trade? Probably peppers, I would say hallepeino peppers.
Speaker 1: Hallo that. I would say hallepeino pepper because everybody don't
Speaker 1: love hallepeino peppers. Right, Huh. What's something on the pizza
Speaker 1: that people don't pineapple? I would think pineapples because everybody
Speaker 1: doesn't get pineapples on their pizza. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: You mushroom now everybody likes mushrooms. Everybody don't like it,
Speaker 1: you know what? All right, guys, yeah, all right, well
Speaker 1: thank you for that dog here to day. Yes I
Speaker 1: don't yeah, I don't agree. Yes, Now what are we
Speaker 1: doing though? Are we asking people? Do they agree with this?
Speaker 1: But they think about this method of teaching kids about
Speaker 1: sex and eighth grade. I don't see any parents agreeing
Speaker 1: with this lesson plan. And also too, man, I think
Speaker 1: we underestimate how smart these kids are. So when you're
Speaker 1: talking to these young kids in middle school, you can
Speaker 1: talk to them like young adults. You can just have
Speaker 1: conversations with them, you know, about sex. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I want any teacher talking about that kids about sex.
Speaker 1: I just think that's a parental conversation. But I agree,
Speaker 1: I agree, And then you never know, like eighth grade
Speaker 1: might not be the time because myself, I was a
Speaker 1: late bloomer. So you know, eighth grade, I wasn't thinking
Speaker 1: about sex. I was thinking about basketball. He didn't even
Speaker 1: think about sex. I was thinking thinking about sex. Eighth grade.
Speaker 1: I was a late bloomer. I was thinking about yeah,
Speaker 1: thinking about Okay, let me rephrase that you have the
Speaker 1: friends that would bring the playboys to the school and
Speaker 1: the traffic keepers. You know what I mean, right, You
Speaker 1: weren't about to have sex, but you thought about it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was a five for two, I had glasses, braces,
Speaker 1: I was short. That I wasn't I wasn't pimples all
Speaker 1: over my face. That wasn't something I was ever thinking about.
Speaker 1: You thought about it. We are so In other words,
Speaker 1: other people weren't thinking about having sex with you. Jesus Christ,
Speaker 1: she you are? You are? Really? You just triggered me. Jesus,
Speaker 1: I'm triggered. I'm about to cry. But let's hopen up
Speaker 1: the phone lines eight hundred five eighty five one oh
Speaker 1: five one, cos you just hurt my feelings. About to cry?
Speaker 1: Say sorry, I'm not performing. Sorry Kanye West. Okay, there
Speaker 1: we go. Eight hundred five eight five one o five one.
Speaker 1: What is the question? What are we asking? People? Um?
Speaker 1: Do y'all agree with this lesson playing pizza in consent?
Speaker 1: I just want to know what parents think. That's all
Speaker 1: simple as that, All right? Call us up right now.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. It's
Speaker 1: topic time. Called eight hundred five eight five one oh
Speaker 1: five one to join it. To the discussion with the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Talk about it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy
Speaker 1: Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we are the breakfast club.
Speaker 1: Now if he just joined the Charlomagne gave Donkey the
Speaker 1: day to who the John F. Kennedy Middle School in Connecticut,
Speaker 1: they have a lesson plan called Pizza and Consent, Okay,
Speaker 1: where basically they use pizzas a metaphor for sex, and
Speaker 1: they I asked students to cite their favorite toppings. For example,
Speaker 1: cheese was kissing, olives were giving oral. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: So we're asking eight hundred five A five, one oh
Speaker 1: five onod what are your thoughts on this practice? Me? No, don't.
Speaker 1: I don't want you to teach my kids anything about sex,
Speaker 1: and especially when it comes to pizzas. Like now, every
Speaker 1: time my kids eat a slice of pizza, they can
Speaker 1: be thinking about anal, oral and all that other stuff. No,
Speaker 1: it feels like nobody thought this too, right because it's
Speaker 1: middle school kids. I feel like, you know those guys,
Speaker 1: those kids are young adults, and you can just simply
Speaker 1: have a conversation with them. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: If you want to teach them about consent and everything else.
Speaker 1: And also you had to keep in mind the conspiracy
Speaker 1: theory Pizza Gate when you put this together. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. Pizza Gate was when you know it
Speaker 1: was the false allegation that the Clintons were using a
Speaker 1: restaurant in DC as a front for a pedophile sex
Speaker 1: ringt Like, come on, you gotta know what kind of
Speaker 1: bad headlines stuff like this is going to create. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I say, no, what do you say you? I think
Speaker 1: the best thing to do is be direct and use
Speaker 1: the real words so that kids know how to use
Speaker 1: that language in real life. And instead of having to
Speaker 1: go around things and feel like certain things to taboo
Speaker 1: and thinking you're not supposed to say those things. I agree,
Speaker 1: just have a conversation with the kids, like, we don't
Speaker 1: need no metaphors for sex, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You don't have to tell me olives is oral. You
Speaker 1: don't have to tell me cheese is kiss And that's
Speaker 1: too confusing. By the way, you're not how hard it
Speaker 1: is to order pizza with a group friends when it's
Speaker 1: like four or five y'all and one each pepper Berni
Speaker 1: and one don't eat Paul and the other ones blacktolts
Speaker 1: intolerance and they don't want cheese. I gotta time call
Speaker 1: that alright, complicating already complicated issue. Let's go to the
Speaker 1: full lids. Hello, who's this Janet? Hey, Jenny, what's your thoughts? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think that was a bit much like crazy. Just
Speaker 1: should not be asking thirteen year old what they like
Speaker 1: perfect professive, not as a piece of metaphor. That were
Speaker 1: terrible metaphor, honestly, and I thought that was just completely
Speaker 1: inappropriate because I don't want nobody asking my thirty year
Speaker 1: old daughter what she liked perfect. They shouldn't even thinking
Speaker 1: about that. It names grade word and what is the
Speaker 1: consent part is? Where does that come into play? That's
Speaker 1: a good question. That is a good question because honestly,
Speaker 1: I'm the first time you're not even old enough to
Speaker 1: consent to anything at thirteen or it names grade, so
Speaker 1: that should have been that. The whole conversation just should
Speaker 1: have been nulling boy, because that no I know thirty
Speaker 1: old consent to anything at that age. I agree, thank
Speaker 1: you mama. Hello, who's this? Hello? This is Lesian. I
Speaker 1: am a teaching Dragon School, listening to the Morning show
Speaker 1: and cannot believe what the kind of assignment was given
Speaker 1: to students on metaphors and peace and that. I'm going
Speaker 1: to defend teachers a little bit and say, sometimes we
Speaker 1: are told we have to teach things that we don't
Speaker 1: think are appropriate because districts says this was the curriculum
Speaker 1: and you need to teach it. But second of all,
Speaker 1: if you're a teacher, you know wellforehand what you're gonna
Speaker 1: be giving students, and you got to know what you're teaching.
Speaker 1: If you have problems with it, that's when you go
Speaker 1: to your administration. To Paris nowadays eat you up for
Speaker 1: anything that you say to kids. So it's shaming both
Speaker 1: the teacher and the district for having an assignment like that.
Speaker 1: Ye Paris the teaching to the thing and an assignment
Speaker 1: like that completely inappropriate for eighth grade. I teach, I'm
Speaker 1: among you, I'm a second grade. Oh okay, no mind.
Speaker 1: But hey, they talk about you'd be surprised what second
Speaker 1: graders know and come to school and tell you. That's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. We act like we were start We
Speaker 1: act like we weren't kids once. So why if we're
Speaker 1: going to have the conversation with these young adults, talk
Speaker 1: to them like young adults. Absolutely, yes, just be straight
Speaker 1: up with them. Secrets, Yeah, you gotta be straight up
Speaker 1: and honest with kids and certain conversations. Yeah, you need
Speaker 1: to know your student body. You need to know your parents.
Speaker 1: We don't start talking to our kids like adults and
Speaker 1: be truthful and honest. This is real misinformation and communication
Speaker 1: breaks down between kids because are you talking about peace
Speaker 1: on ship? But it is what they like. They're he's
Speaker 1: gonna want to have a conversation when you make it.
Speaker 1: Well here I agree, mama. All right, well eight hundred
Speaker 1: five eight five, one oh five one if you just
Speaker 1: joined in, Charlemagne gave donkey to day to whos Charlemagne
Speaker 1: John F. Kennedy Middle School in Connecticut. Man, they have
Speaker 1: a lesson plan they that's called pizza and consent, where
Speaker 1: they use pizza as a metaphor for sex and you're
Speaker 1: asked to cite their favorite toppings. Uh so kissing his
Speaker 1: cheese olives is giving oral And I still don't know
Speaker 1: what consent has to do with any of this. All right,
Speaker 1: we'll get into that next. Calling us up, what is
Speaker 1: your thoughts since the breakfast club commorit me and your
Speaker 1: opinions to the Breakfast Club Top eight one morning. Everybody
Speaker 1: is dch Envy Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are
Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. Now if you just joined us, we're
Speaker 1: talking about Charlomagne's Donkey of the Day now. I gave
Speaker 1: it to a school in Connecticut because of what Charlomagne,
Speaker 1: John F. Kennedy Middle School and Connecticut. Uh, they have
Speaker 1: a lesson plan called pizza and Consent, and they were
Speaker 1: instructed to use pizza as a metaphor for sex, and
Speaker 1: students had to cite their favorite toppings, uh, for their
Speaker 1: sexual preferences. I don't know where to con comes into play.
Speaker 1: And this because as a caller called earlier and said,
Speaker 1: you know, kids in middle school, they're not old enough
Speaker 1: to consent to any damn thing, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: So that I don't even know where the consent comes
Speaker 1: into play here. And then also too, man, as I
Speaker 1: said during Donkey Today, if you know anything about the
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory Pizza Gate, and you know this right here
Speaker 1: does nothing but continue to fuel that conspiracy theory, which
Speaker 1: is a conspiracy theory that has almost gotten people killed.
Speaker 1: You know, So we're asking your thoughts, all right, eight
Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one oh five one. Hello, who's
Speaker 1: this all right? Good morning, Good morning, What are your thoughts?
Speaker 1: I think the way they went about it with the
Speaker 1: pizople was completely wrong, But I do think having sexifucation
Speaker 1: in the schools really important. Bill With some studies, if
Speaker 1: even just like Google, but there were some studies where
Speaker 1: it showed between the ages of fourteen and seventeen, sixty
Speaker 1: nine percent of those boys and seventy two percent of
Speaker 1: those girls were sexually active. And there's another study worth
Speaker 1: shows fourteen they in the fourteen point four people had
Speaker 1: um sexually transmitted diseases. I'm gonna reas to colamdia. So
Speaker 1: having speaking to those kids about education is really important,
Speaker 1: and it shouldn't just come from parents. It should come
Speaker 1: from people who they respected to be on a daily basis,
Speaker 1: such as their teacher. Listen, I'm not opposed to that,
Speaker 1: but listen, how about just have the conversation with them.
Speaker 1: They're young adults, like, think about how when we were
Speaker 1: young and the things we were thinking about and the
Speaker 1: things we were talking about. Just be straight up with
Speaker 1: them as opposed to doing silly stuntch with pizza. No,
Speaker 1: I agree with that definitely. All right, well he brayday.
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to another Carla. Hello, who's this wanting?
Speaker 1: This guy from Texas pace guy? Good mord, what are
Speaker 1: your thoughts here? Pointed? Well, I'm a four do have
Speaker 1: a fourteen year old son, and I'm not particularly disturbed
Speaker 1: by the technique that they're trying to use. I mean,
Speaker 1: times are different. Yesterday you guys were talking about boundaries
Speaker 1: over stuff with fo dogs. Here in Texas, we're dealing with,
Speaker 1: you know, just a simple massage that it wrong, well
Speaker 1: a few of them, supposedly from DeShawn Watson. So I
Speaker 1: think it's okay to talk to the kids about what
Speaker 1: could be appropriate and what's not appropriate. I mean you
Speaker 1: better start talking to him now. Yeah, but why do
Speaker 1: it under the guys and pizza? Why not just have
Speaker 1: the conversation with him straight up? Your son fourteen? You
Speaker 1: can talk to him straight up and tell him what's
Speaker 1: going on in the world. Why but I don't talk
Speaker 1: to him like that. I had a mother who talked
Speaker 1: to me like that and it didn't do any different.
Speaker 1: It actually, baby have a mouth that was inappropriate at times.
Speaker 1: The boundaries again, you have to remember that the school district,
Speaker 1: so they have to still keep it. You know, if
Speaker 1: you can't say the word vagina all day at schools,
Speaker 1: then they may be a little bit reluctant to just
Speaker 1: put it on a paper and send it home with
Speaker 1: the kids. I don't want nobody talking to my kids
Speaker 1: in cold especially, you know, when we don't know if
Speaker 1: pizza gate is really facing Nay, I'm serious, but I
Speaker 1: think you should take the help where you can get it,
Speaker 1: because you do know I have so many blocks on
Speaker 1: his phone, but he finds it, you will suggest it,
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'll take whatever help I can get.
Speaker 1: I believe they are attentions who was good, and I
Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna harm them. And by the way,
Speaker 1: I believe what you can use for anal is anchovie.
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Do you see what you said?
Speaker 1: You said anchovies a disgusting but some people love anchovies.
Speaker 1: Anchovies isn't the thing that you just regularly want to
Speaker 1: get on your pizza. That's it. You hit it, anchovies,
Speaker 1: Andy Brown, anchovies for anal. Oh my goodness, how about
Speaker 1: we don't talk about pizza when we come to talk
Speaker 1: about having sex. How about that? Listen, you're gonna have
Speaker 1: a hard time con visit people pizza gate in the
Speaker 1: real when when things like this pop up. Okay, you know,
Speaker 1: I can say pizza gate is false, but situations like
Speaker 1: this make you be like, hmmm, let's rethink this. Can
Speaker 1: you imagine the superintendent standing up in front of parents
Speaker 1: telling parents there is no secret cabald and doctrinate kids
Speaker 1: on something that's like when sevested. The chat used to
Speaker 1: be sitting there with tweet bird all in his mouth
Speaker 1: and the feathers be coming out of his mouth. I
Speaker 1: didn't need the canary. What's wrong with you? I don't know,
Speaker 1: but it's wrong with you. I don't have therapy today,
Speaker 1: thank god. All right, we got rumors all the way. Yes,
Speaker 1: we were discussing new albums earlier in reference to the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl Snoop Dogg and Mary Date Blade to have
Speaker 1: new albums coming out today. But we'll tell you about
Speaker 1: some more new music you'll be interested in. All right,

Speaker 1: Baller Alert, they had an exclusive and he says she's

Speaker 1: this will be a game changer in the music industry.
Speaker 1: Snoop said, if anything is constant, it's that the music
Speaker 1: industry will always be changing. Blockchain tech has the power
Speaker 1: to change everything again and tip table in favor of

Speaker 1: Effect iHeartRadio podcast network, hosted by my Guy b dot
Speaker 1: And on today's episode, we will talk about the origins
Speaker 1: of the term Uncle Tom. Listen, Welcome to mister Doty neighborhood,
Speaker 1: and we're at the home of one of the most
Speaker 1: influential saxophonies of all time, John Coltrane, right here in
Speaker 1: Hot Point, North Carolina. On today's episode, If I didn't Know,
Speaker 1: Maybe you didn't either, Let's talk about a term that
Speaker 1: gets used a lot wrongest head, Uncle Tom. Have you
Speaker 1: read the book Uncle Tom's Cabin Probably Got It was
Speaker 1: written in eighteen fifties by Harriet Stowe. The climax of
Speaker 1: the book is when Uncle Tom is tragically beaten by
Speaker 1: his slave man because he would not tell the whereabouts
Speaker 1: of two black women who would escape. Now that was
Speaker 1: powerful to take that beating and let them live. Now,
Speaker 1: you know, the white people at that time couldn't let
Speaker 1: the power of black folk be magnified to the world
Speaker 1: when they adapted it to stage plays and instrel shows.
Speaker 1: So how did they depict Uncle Tom as a cornball,
Speaker 1: as a sellout, someone who wouldn't dare give up his
Speaker 1: life to save two black women when that's exactly who
Speaker 1: Uncle Tom was. So when you call someone on Uncle
Speaker 1: Tom to try to play him, or to say they
Speaker 1: ain't black enough, you're sound ignorant, is heir? Uncle Tom
Speaker 1: was very black. Uncle Tom was a protector. Uncle Tom
Speaker 1: gave his life so the two black women could live.
Speaker 1: We should all be as strong as Uncle Tom. I
Speaker 1: didn't know. Maybe you didn't need very valuable information. Some
Speaker 1: of this stuff I'll be knowing. Some of this stuff
Speaker 1: I didn't, but you can download. I didn't know. Maybe
Speaker 1: you didn't either. Daily on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network.
