Speaker 1: still number one. Eagles lost last night to the Seahawks
Speaker 1: twenty three seventeen, and there was supposed to be a
Speaker 1: football game today but they postponed it again because of COVID.
Speaker 1: So the Ravens Steelers game will be Wednesday at three forty,
Speaker 1: which is weird in the afternoon, and the reason it's
Speaker 1: in the afternoons. Of course, later on that evening, of course,
Speaker 1: you have the Rockefeller Christmas Tree like the hell one
Speaker 1: got to do another. The rock Fella Christma Tree lighting
Speaker 1: is in New York. It's a big thing. Everybody watches
Speaker 1: over all over the country. They don't want to ruin it.
Speaker 1: I grew up oble win it. They ain't never watching.
Speaker 1: Still don't care what else we got. Well, let's talk
Speaker 1: about this vaccine. So according to Operation Warp Speed, they've
Speaker 1: given a timeline for the coronavirus vaccine shipment. They said
Speaker 1: there's about one hundred and twenty million people at risk
Speaker 1: in the United States. They said, by the end of
Speaker 1: the month of December, about forty million doses of vaccine.
Speaker 1: They'll have that, and then it's going to take a
Speaker 1: while for all Americans who need it on a priority
Speaker 1: level to get it. But they said over probably two
Speaker 1: or two and a half months stay all will get it.
Speaker 1: And those are people over sixty five. Healthcare workers and
Speaker 1: frontline workers are the people first in line to get
Speaker 1: the vaccine. Both Fiser and Maderna have filed for an
Speaker 1: Emergency Youth Authorization for coronavirus vaccine from the FDA. Now
Speaker 1: what does that mean. Well, Maderna just applied for FDA authorization.
Speaker 1: They did their own tests and what they found out
Speaker 1: in their phase three clinical trial they gave thirty thousand
Speaker 1: people either the vaccine or a placebo, and the race
Speaker 1: that they found out. Among the approximately fifteen thousand people
Speaker 1: who got the vaccine, eleven of them developed COVID nineteen.
Speaker 1: The fifteen thousand people who got the placebo, one hundred
Speaker 1: and eighty five of those people developed COVID nineteen. And
Speaker 1: so that was according to the phase three trials. Now
Speaker 1: they said, none of the eleven people who did get Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not the highest grade of weed in
Speaker 1: the dispensary. That ain't the thing that come out your
Speaker 1: wife whence you have a baby, Right, it's the placenta.
Speaker 1: All right, what hey man, it's early. Man, give me
Speaker 1: a moment. Okay, we're just getting started at the placebo
Speaker 1: means they don't they give you nothing like it's it's fake,
Speaker 1: so you don't know who got the fake one or
Speaker 1: who got the real vaccine, and then that way they
Speaker 1: can really monitor you, and you don't as a person,
Speaker 1: you don't even know which one you got. None of
Speaker 1: the eleven got a headache, but they don't really have it.
Speaker 1: They just think they have a headache. But they did placebo,
Speaker 1: not a placenta. Okay, now, none of the eleven people
Speaker 1: who also got the vaccine became severely ill the eleven
Speaker 1: people that did get coronavirus. But thirty of the one
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty five people who got the placebo became
Speaker 1: severely ill, and one of them died. So what they're
Speaker 1: saying is what even if so the placebo killed somebody, No,
Speaker 1: if you got the placebo, you can still get coronavirus.
Speaker 1: So of those people who did get the placebo, one
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty five of the fifteen thousand did get
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen, so they would have gotten it. They got
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen, they didn't know they had the placebo, and
Speaker 1: then one hundred and eighty five of those people died.
Speaker 1: I'm so confused. I mean that's a very ill, that's
Speaker 1: a really ill and one of them died. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: why don't play with me. Don't say yea, we're gonna
Speaker 1: give you the vaccine. I think I got the vaccine,
Speaker 1: but you really gave me the placebo died. Well, when
Speaker 1: you agree to be part of a trial, you know
Speaker 1: that you'll either get the placebo or the vaccine. You
Speaker 1: just don't know which one. And they don't give you coronavirus.
Speaker 1: That means you just so, how are we not it
Speaker 1: while you were out and about? So? How we know
Speaker 1: one of them didn't die from the actual vaccine and
Speaker 1: not the placenta because they got the placebo. They she
Speaker 1: just said that Parson got the placebo. But what if
Speaker 1: it was actually the vaccine and the vaccine is what
Speaker 1: killed them and it wasn't placebo. You don't know. No,
Speaker 1: they know who they get. Yeah, they know what they
Speaker 1: tell us. The dactors that did the trials, who got
Speaker 1: place they know what they told them. They know what
Speaker 1: they're telling you. They'm telling you, hey, here's the placebo,
Speaker 1: here's a vaccine, But I'm actually giving you place giving
Speaker 1: you the vaccine or the vaccine killed them. Okay, here
Speaker 1: was the placebo. Oh my goodness. Hey, hey, but you're
Speaker 1: walking around thinking you're immune because you think you got
Speaker 1: the vaccine, and that's what crazy. No, but they're telling you.
Speaker 1: They're not they're telling them that you might get the
Speaker 1: vaccine of placebo. They're not telling you. Everybody's in the back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're not telling everything. They're not telling all the people, Hey,
Speaker 1: you got the vaccine. You know when you take part
Speaker 1: in the trial that you're either getting up placebo or
Speaker 1: you're getting the vaccine is at fifty Hey, man, wear

Speaker 1: I did it. I'm going in there to Connor McGregor. Up.
Speaker 1: Is it fair to say of his actual interest? Jake, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there is. It's business, baby, Jake Paul versus Connor McGregor
Speaker 1: and its quickly boxing match. I don't I don't knew.
Speaker 1: I have to go back and watch how McGregor looked
Speaker 1: in the ring against Floyd maywhether I do remember McGregor
Speaker 1: getting very tired in that fight. But I mean, if
Speaker 1: Jake Paul has been training in the past three four
Speaker 1: years consistently just it's just boxing, I suppose I give
Speaker 1: Jake Paul a fighting chances randomly. I suppose to Jake
Speaker 1: Paul yesterday and no such thing as random exactly. It
Speaker 1: was really random. Somebody that I knew was he called me. Well,
Speaker 1: he FaceTime me first and I didn't answer, and it
Speaker 1: was like pick up right fast. So I picked up
Speaker 1: and it was him and Paul and he wants to
Speaker 1: come on the UM Show this week actually too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's been up here before. I wonder. I think Jake
Speaker 1: Paul versus Common Gregg in a boxing match, I don't know,
Speaker 1: all right, And Snoop Dogg is co signing the idea
Speaker 1: of becoming a sportscaster. I think that could potentially happen
Speaker 1: for him. I think people really enjoyed his commentary. Yes,
Speaker 1: and I saw Snoop Dogg posted what somebody said that
Speaker 1: he's a natural commentator, he's Barkley on steroids, he's hilarious.
Speaker 1: Three years with fifteen million dollars, who will make the call?
Speaker 1: I think it'd be great, So he should do it. Now,
Speaker 1: Little Wayne, why didn't he perform? Because you know, he's
Speaker 1: one of the owners of Triller, so it was one
Speaker 1: of owner as well. Yes, and but Little Wayne was
Speaker 1: supposed to perform didn't make it to the event. Well,
Speaker 1: according to sources, they said that there was a third
Speaker 1: party event producer who interfered at the last minute and
Speaker 1: tried to insert themselves. There was a whole mess, a
Speaker 1: lot of confusion, and Little Wayne got frustrated and decided
Speaker 1: to just not do the performance. And then by the
Speaker 1: time Trailler found out, it was just too late. But
Speaker 1: he said he was happy that things went well. I
Speaker 1: respect it. I don't do nothing. I don't want to
Speaker 1: do all. Right. Now, we didn't get a chance to
Speaker 1: discuss this, but in the next hour we'll talk about
Speaker 1: every Day Struggle. That show is coming to an end
Speaker 1: Complexes every Day Struggle. It's been over three years since
Speaker 1: the show has been on Complex and we'll tell you
Speaker 1: what went down. Okay, all right, we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1: And we got front page news what we're talking about, Yes,
Speaker 1: and we'll we'll talk about Joe Biden and who he's
Speaker 1: been appointing because now we're finding out more about what
Speaker 1: his team looks like. All right, we'll get into that next.
Speaker 1: Keeping locked this to Breakfast club. Good morning, Hey morning,
Speaker 1: everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Guie Charlomagne the guy. We
Speaker 1: are to Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news. Hey,
Speaker 1: my giants is number one? You know why the cause?
Speaker 1: Last night the Eagles lost to the Seahawks twenty three seventeen.
Speaker 1: I felt so bad for Russell Wilson in the Seattle Seahawks.
Speaker 1: I'm like, why do they have to face an NFC
Speaker 1: East team during COVID? Okay, it's a waste to sort
Speaker 1: of a gathering. There wasn't an easy window, but they
Speaker 1: did pointless gathering. Hey, they took the social distance from
Speaker 1: all NFC East teams. Challenge is still number one. Now
Speaker 1: what else we got you? Well, let's talk about what's
Speaker 1: been happening with some COVID relief talks. Now, they said
Speaker 1: that a bipartisan group of senators actually had some talks.
Speaker 1: They were informal to try to figure out what's going
Speaker 1: to happen to provide more economic relief to Americans. And
Speaker 1: they have to figure this out. You know. They're saying
Speaker 1: that right now, the key programs that were enacted amid
Speaker 1: the pandemic are set to expire at the end of
Speaker 1: the year. That includes the Pandemic Emergency, unemployment compensation, of
Speaker 1: federal student loan freeze, and nationwide eviction moratorium. So both
Speaker 1: sides have to do some give and take. They have
Speaker 1: a Democratic House and the Senate. There's a need for
Speaker 1: Democratic votes to pass any bill. So they need a
Speaker 1: true bipartisan bill. They said, not this is our bill,
Speaker 1: take it or leave it. So they do need a
Speaker 1: specific timeline on when this can happen. They want to
Speaker 1: actually have some legislation passed. They're saying after the January fifth,
Speaker 1: Georgia runoff election, but before Joe Biden is inaugurated January twentieth.
Speaker 1: All right, now, Joe Biden and his transition team announced
Speaker 1: several nominees and appointments for the incoming administration's top economic post.
Speaker 1: You know, that's all gonna have to do with this too.
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to make sure that they figure out
Speaker 1: what to do with coronavirus. And yeah, there's some first
Speaker 1: in there too. They have the Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen.
Speaker 1: She's a former Federal Reserve Chair. She's Biden's official nominee
Speaker 1: for Treasury Secretary. If that is confirmed, she'll be the
Speaker 1: first woman to serve as a department's leader in the
Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty one year history. Also, Nara Tanden
Speaker 1: is going to be serving as director of the Office
Speaker 1: of Management and Budget. If that's confirmed, she'll be the
Speaker 1: first woman of color to lead that department as well. Dope. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you can see there's a lot of diversity in
Speaker 1: people right now that Joe Biden is appointing. Now, today's
Speaker 1: also World Aid's Day, just so you guys know, December first,
Speaker 1: and right now they are calling for global lead and
Speaker 1: citizens to rally for global solidarity to maintain es central
Speaker 1: HIV services during COVID nineteen and beyond and to make
Speaker 1: sure that there is continued provisions of HIV services for children,
Speaker 1: ado lessons and populations most at risk for the disease.
Speaker 1: They want to call on countries to provide health workers
Speaker 1: with greater protection and support so that they continue to
Speaker 1: work safely during this pandemic. And they did find out
Speaker 1: from research. They've been investigating whether people with HIV have
Speaker 1: an increased risk of poor outcomes with COVID nineteen and
Speaker 1: according to preliminary evidence, there is a moderate increased vulnerability.
Speaker 1: So it's even more urgent right now that people with
Speaker 1: HIV have access. All right, that's your update. Okay, thank you,
Speaker 1: miss Ye. Now when we come back, let's open up
Speaker 1: the phone lines eight undred five eight five, one oh
Speaker 1: five one. Now, let's talk about this restaurant in Dallas.
Speaker 1: What happened with this restaurant in Dallas. I've seen it
Speaker 1: all over the social media blogs. Well, it's called True
Speaker 1: Kitchen and Cocktails, and Kevin Kelly is the owner and
Speaker 1: people were upset with him. This video went viral. There
Speaker 1: were women who were dancing, and one woman in particular
Speaker 1: was dancing on his seat and she was leaning on
Speaker 1: the glass. She was twerking this song through that ass
Speaker 1: in the Circle was playing, and you know, he cursed
Speaker 1: everybody out. Some would say throw that ass in the
Speaker 1: circle as a Negro spiritual and when that song comes on,
Speaker 1: the spirit moves you and you can't control yourself. Some
Speaker 1: would say that, some would say that, who would say that? Me? Well,
Speaker 1: I think we do. Do we have the audio of
Speaker 1: the owner of the restaurant. Yes, I invested a lot
Speaker 1: of funny in the buying this building, into developing this
Speaker 1: concept so black people can have somewhere knights to go to. Okay,
Speaker 1: somewhere we can feel good about ourselves and say stop,
Speaker 1: somewhere where people can feel good about ourselves as a
Speaker 1: cultural Okay, it's all that's tworking, taking the prime, taking
Speaker 1: the peak. Don't bring it here because we're a restaurant.
Speaker 1: And so beyond that, seventy five percent of our customers,
Speaker 1: the ladies and I'm on be in the show respect
Speaker 1: for themselves. But how they carry themselves here? So how
Speaker 1: can I tell them being to respect himself? And you
Speaker 1: guys talking last year, do you want to do it?
Speaker 1: Got a restaurant? Well, well, he went up to collective
Speaker 1: reaction of the audience, he said that for work. But
Speaker 1: he went up to the table a couple of times
Speaker 1: and asked him not to work and not to dance
Speaker 1: on the chairs, and they continued to do it, and
Speaker 1: he got upset and said, you know what I asked
Speaker 1: you nicely pretty much to not get there froout the restaurant, right,
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean that's and I think what happened
Speaker 1: was when this first happened, people didn't know the backstory.
Speaker 1: They didn't know that he had addressed them several times.
Speaker 1: They also didn't understand why he cursed and made a
Speaker 1: speech to the whole restaurant instead of just the people
Speaker 1: that were tworking and make them leave. I think he
Speaker 1: kicked them out. But if it's his restaurant, if he
Speaker 1: wanted to get his MLK junior on and give a
Speaker 1: I have a brunch speech, that's his right, right. I
Speaker 1: also think he felt like he was talking to family
Speaker 1: because he's black, and you seemed like it was majority
Speaker 1: of black people in there. He thought that they could
Speaker 1: have some you know, real candid conversation. That's what I
Speaker 1: took from it, right. But there's, like he said, there's
Speaker 1: certain places where you're dancing you have a good time,
Speaker 1: and there's certain places where you eat. Never like, I
Speaker 1: go to restaurants and I never see nobody standing on
Speaker 1: tables or standing on chairs turking. But then when I
Speaker 1: go to lounges and I go to clubs, yes, I
Speaker 1: see that, and I think his whole thing was Look,
Speaker 1: I asked you a couple of times, this is not
Speaker 1: that type of place. Please, don't stand on the chairs,
Speaker 1: don't stand on the table, don't stand on the couch,
Speaker 1: don't put your he said, don't put your hands on
Speaker 1: the glass, because you can fall and hurt yourself. I
Speaker 1: don't want to lossuit. I asked you nicely a couple
Speaker 1: of times. Now I can't be nice anymore from my restaurant.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have cursed that the remaining customers in the restaurant,
Speaker 1: you know, because they weren't the ones that were causing
Speaker 1: the disruption. That's that's about it. But other than that,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't see what he did. What did
Speaker 1: wrong here? What did I miss? People were upset about this, yeah,
Speaker 1: very yeah, well yeah, and I said, like I said,
Speaker 1: I don't think people have the fullback story. They just
Speaker 1: saw the video of him cursing them out. They didn't
Speaker 1: know what had happened prior to that until it all
Speaker 1: came out after that's what happened. Yeah, I don't think
Speaker 1: he should have said get the f out of the restaurant.
Speaker 1: But if you've asked someone to stop doing something a
Speaker 1: couple of times, and they do it again intentionally just
Speaker 1: as an fu. That's an FU to me. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: then then you gotta go. You jump on my furniture
Speaker 1: and push on the glass working in my establishment after
Speaker 1: I ask you not to you and you just don't
Speaker 1: respect me and my venue. And I ever hate that though.
Speaker 1: I hate when people say, well, he shouldn't have used
Speaker 1: the F word. So it's like, but I, when I
Speaker 1: ask you to leave a couple of times and you
Speaker 1: continue to do it, you're saying F me. So I
Speaker 1: can't say, hey, well, I think those people were gone,
Speaker 1: talk about he shouldn't have said that to the remaining
Speaker 1: customers in the building. I don't know that. I wasn't there.
Speaker 1: I don't know if the people were still there, and
Speaker 1: I don't know. All right, Right, well, we'll get more
Speaker 1: into it because we'll talk more about his response, and
Speaker 1: he did a response on Instagram as well as an
Speaker 1: interview with TMZ, So we'll tell you what that is,
Speaker 1: all right, We'll get into that next eight hundred five
Speaker 1: eight five one oh five one. Let's talk about it
Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club, Go MORNINGE call in right now, call
Speaker 1: me at your opinion to the breakfast Club. Top break
Speaker 1: it down eight hundred five eight five one oh five
Speaker 1: one the breakfast Club, think out the phone call eight
Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one oh five. Want to join
Speaker 1: it to the discussion with the breakfast club, talk about
Speaker 1: it wanting everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the breakfast Club. Now if you're just joining us,
Speaker 1: we opened up the phone lines. We're talking about a
Speaker 1: restaurant in Dallas. The name of the restaurant's name, the
Speaker 1: restaurant et true True Kitchen and cocktails. True Kitchen and Cocktails.
Speaker 1: Now the owner got it. Some people, uh that was
Speaker 1: working at this restaurant. I invested a lot of funny
Speaker 1: in the buying this building, into developing this concept. So
Speaker 1: black people can have somewhere knights to go to, Okay,
Speaker 1: where we can feel good about ourselves and say good
Speaker 1: talk to you please, Somewhere where people can feel good
Speaker 1: about ourselves as a cultural okay. And so all that's working,
Speaker 1: taking the crime, taking the peak, don't bring it here
Speaker 1: because we're a restaurant. And so we got that seventy
Speaker 1: five percent of our customer and the ladies, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be in the show respect for themselves. How they
Speaker 1: carry themselves here, so I can I tell them being
Speaker 1: to respect himselves and you guys want to do it restaurant.
Speaker 1: I don't like how we're reducing this to just twerking.
Speaker 1: I don't like that narrative. That's not what happened in
Speaker 1: this situation. It wasn't the twerking. It was disrespect. If
Speaker 1: you come to a table and you ask, you know,
Speaker 1: some folks not to do something, and you know, they
Speaker 1: continue to do it and then intentionally jump up on
Speaker 1: the table at the restaurant, put their hands on the
Speaker 1: glass and twork to say f you for telling them,
Speaker 1: you know, not to twork a couple of times. That's
Speaker 1: just disrespect. You don't have nothing to do with the
Speaker 1: fact that throw that ass in the circle was playing
Speaker 1: and the Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost got into this
Speaker 1: young lady and she just had to throw her ass
Speaker 1: in the circle. That's not what happened here, right, And
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I mean he went to the
Speaker 1: table a couple of times and asked him please, and
Speaker 1: they disrespected him and said, not only am I still
Speaker 1: gonna do it, I'm gonna get on the couch and
Speaker 1: put my hands on the glass and continue, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: gotta get out, you gotta get out, because all I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about at that time it is not only the disrespect,
Speaker 1: but if you fall into that glass, if something happens
Speaker 1: to you, I'm losing my He said that, he said
Speaker 1: that facebook posts. I saw that in his Facebook posts,
Speaker 1: he said, because he's an attorney too, Yes, he said, Well,
Speaker 1: he also said why I would like to apoloizeze the
Speaker 1: patrons who I offended by my poor choice of wording.
Speaker 1: I think this full story and a bit of video
Speaker 1: it might help your understanding of the final stong with
Speaker 1: guests address and asked to leave. So at first people
Speaker 1: didn't see that he had went over to the table
Speaker 1: multiple times and asked these guests to stop. And then
Speaker 1: the video we saw was just him pretty much cursing
Speaker 1: out people in the restaurant. Yeah, I don't think he
Speaker 1: should have said get the f out of the restaurant
Speaker 1: to to the to the remaining patriots in the restaurant.
Speaker 1: But if you've asked someone to stop doing something a
Speaker 1: couple of times and they do it again intentionally just
Speaker 1: as an f you, then then you got to go.
Speaker 1: You jump on the frontiture and push on my glass
Speaker 1: working in my establishment. After I asked you not to.
Speaker 1: You just don't respect me? How many? How many times
Speaker 1: I gotta ask you nicely, like like you know how?
Speaker 1: And I asked you a couple of times like hey,
Speaker 1: can you not do it? You get that out? He's black, right, correct,
Speaker 1: He's a black restaurant. I guarantee he's in a white
Speaker 1: area in Dallas. And those white folks probably be giving
Speaker 1: them hell. Seeing all those black folks in that establishment
Speaker 1: all the time. They probably always reporting them, trying to
Speaker 1: get them jammed up, you know. And one thing about
Speaker 1: being black when you own establishment like that, it's very
Speaker 1: difficult to get licenses, yep, but easy for them to
Speaker 1: take them away. Absolutely, so he's probably overly cautious. Let's
Speaker 1: go to Hello, who's this alli? This is Katrina from Florida.
Speaker 1: Hey Katrina, Hi you guys. M my thoult Is. I
Speaker 1: don't think he said anything wrong at all. I think
Speaker 1: a lot of the time, as black people we complaining of,
Speaker 1: you know, our establishment and businesses not having great customer service,
Speaker 1: or we always find a way to put each other down.
Speaker 1: And finally, you know, from the way looking a video.
Speaker 1: How many people was there. He has a well established restaurant,
Speaker 1: and the only thing he's asking is for you to
Speaker 1: respect the restaurant as you will somewhere else. You know,
Speaker 1: there's there's no place restaurant, any business really to stand
Speaker 1: on furniture and act like that, especially when he told
Speaker 1: you guys multiple time not to do it. I tell
Speaker 1: people all the time, if your mama told you don't
Speaker 1: play on the furniture at home, that mean you don't know.
Speaker 1: I can play on the furniture nowhere else, you know.
Speaker 1: So I didn't think they should have had a little
Speaker 1: bit more respect, you know, for his business, and like
Speaker 1: he said, especially been a black owned business. We have
Speaker 1: something good going, don't mess it up, you know, make
Speaker 1: ourselves look bad. We're here to uplift each other. So
Speaker 1: just respect, you know, his things, and you know that's
Speaker 1: all you have to do. You know what you gotta do.
Speaker 1: You gotta put plastic on this furniture in the restaurant.
Speaker 1: All black people know, not get on the furniture with
Speaker 1: the plastic. Can't do that. Don't even sit on it,
Speaker 1: and the fool look good. I can't wait I get
Speaker 1: back to Dallas. I'm going to try that resture that
Speaker 1: fool look amazing. Hello, who's this? Hey lording and it's
Speaker 1: que man. Hey cue much man? This brother, I'm a
Speaker 1: business owner and this brother was wrong. I could have
Speaker 1: I could have completely understand that the ladies were disrespectful,
Speaker 1: But at the same time, you have to me shame
Speaker 1: your composure. I've been in that situation plenty of times,
Speaker 1: and it could actually turn ugly. God forbid. They had
Speaker 1: dudes come to pick them up and one of them
Speaker 1: comes inside and wants to fight the owner down. Um,
Speaker 1: they could turn really ugly. So he shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 1: I think if there were dudes, wouldn't have spoke to
Speaker 1: them like that. What would you expect him to do? Though? Women,
Speaker 1: what would you look like? They wouldn't go to a
Speaker 1: white restaurant and act like that. I don't think you
Speaker 1: would have spoke to white women, or Hispanic women, or
Speaker 1: or Asian women like that. I think anybody disrespecting this restaurant,
Speaker 1: what would you do? What would you do in that
Speaker 1: in situation? Um, I would tell them I would turn
Speaker 1: off the music. I'll say, DJ, you know what, cut that,
Speaker 1: throw that whatever in the circle off and then i'd
Speaker 1: like listen, that's the music off. Because people don't want
Speaker 1: to respect the rule. Ask you to leave, you don't
Speaker 1: want to leave. Now I have to get the authorities
Speaker 1: involved because what happened. We don't want to call the
Speaker 1: cops on these women. Yeah, I wouldn't want to call
Speaker 1: the cops, and he did, I will say afterward, he
Speaker 1: did apologize for his poor choice of wording, So he
Speaker 1: did say that, Yeah, the white man would have definitely
Speaker 1: called the cops on them asap. First time out the gate,
Speaker 1: you called the cops to escort because the situation. Now,
Speaker 1: when you don't keep your composure in situations like that,
Speaker 1: it becomes what you said and not actually what the
Speaker 1: people did. So in the Bronx, it was a similar
Speaker 1: situation brons a little different, you know, and the girls
Speaker 1: did something and the business owner handled it wrong. He
Speaker 1: disrespected her even though she was wrong. She went to
Speaker 1: call her boyfriend. He shot her and he died. The dude,
Speaker 1: the dude, I mean the dude her boyfriend came in
Speaker 1: and shot to do that. He died. Listen, you know
Speaker 1: what's so crazy if you just spoke to her with respect.
Speaker 1: It was a time leaving working in a restaurant, were wrong.
Speaker 1: But you still, as the black men, the way we
Speaker 1: interact with our women, we have to treat them. But
Speaker 1: he did. But he went to the table three times politely.
Speaker 1: What I see with his prayers. Now you called Securado,
Speaker 1: the police asked him to leave. Now, I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: honest with you, as the black man, I would not
Speaker 1: call the police, only because we've seen what happened in
Speaker 1: situations like wiffle house and stuff like that. It would
Speaker 1: be very hard for me to call the police in
Speaker 1: the situation like that. I'm not gonna probably have my
Speaker 1: security at the restaurant do it, but not the police.
Speaker 1: But also we don't know when he was standing in
Speaker 1: the restaurant yelling at people, if those people were still there.
Speaker 1: I don't know if those people were still there. Right,
Speaker 1: But not only that, you call the police. Now you
Speaker 1: have an infraction on your business. Does that go against
Speaker 1: your business and that police came to your business? You
Speaker 1: might not want that. I know a lot of times
Speaker 1: when your own businesses, you don't want the police to
Speaker 1: put any infractions on your business. That they had to
Speaker 1: come for any reason. Because when you got to go
Speaker 1: against the community board up for the community board. It shows, Oh,
Speaker 1: we would call to this restaurant twenty times. We would
Speaker 1: call to this restaurant five times. And like you said,
Speaker 1: he's a brother in a white neighborhood. He's just trying
Speaker 1: to keep his business alive without having to problem because
Speaker 1: I'm sure they're trying to push push the above out.
Speaker 1: But let's talk about it some more. Eight hundred five
Speaker 1: eighty five one oh five one. What are your thoughts?
Speaker 1: It's the breakfast club the morning. Call me and your
Speaker 1: opinions to the breakfast club topic on five morning. Everybody
Speaker 1: is cej Envy angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy We all
Speaker 1: the breakfast club. Now, if you just joined us, we're
Speaker 1: taking your calls. Eight five one oh five one. We're
Speaker 1: talking about this restaurant in Dallas. What happened in Dallagy Yes,
Speaker 1: the owner of Dallas's True Kitchen and Cocktails. He actually
Speaker 1: had to have some women leave because he went over
Speaker 1: to the table several times asking the staff to working.
Speaker 1: One woman was standing on a seat with her hands
Speaker 1: against the glass windows. He said, my immediate reaction was
Speaker 1: this woman could fall through this window and we could
Speaker 1: be the target of a lawsuit if she is injured.
Speaker 1: My second reaction was enough is enough? After already addressing
Speaker 1: this behavior twice, these customers no longer deserved the courtesy
Speaker 1: of kindness I expressed in the earlier encounters, as it
Speaker 1: was met with disrespect and intentionally ignored. That's why they
Speaker 1: were told to leave. So I ask you a question,
Speaker 1: because I didn't see this on social media, what exactly
Speaker 1: are people upset about that he talked to him and
Speaker 1: told him that they couldn't dance in the restaurant in
Speaker 1: the way that they spoke to him. Well, now, I
Speaker 1: think that they didn't see the videos because he posted
Speaker 1: the videos and he posted his lines that he had
Speaker 1: went over there a couple of times before, with the
Speaker 1: video that people saw of him cursing them out, and
Speaker 1: you know, he did tell them. I think we had
Speaker 1: the audio right of him cursing them out. Yeah, let's
Speaker 1: let's play the audio. I invested a lot of money
Speaker 1: in the buying this building, into developing this concept so
Speaker 1: black people can have somewhere knights to go to, Okay,
Speaker 1: somewhere we can feel good about ourselves and say the
Speaker 1: book stop, somewhere where our people can feel good about
Speaker 1: ourselves as a cultural, okay, And so all that's talking
Speaker 1: taking the crime, taking the pink, don't bring it here
Speaker 1: because we're a restaurant. And so beyond that, seventy five
Speaker 1: percent of our customers, the ladies, and I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: in the show respect for themselves for how they carry
Speaker 1: themselves here. So how can I tell them being to
Speaker 1: respect themselves? And you guys are talking about last year?
Speaker 1: Do you want to do it? I got my restaurant.
Speaker 1: I did it more our people, and I didn't more
Speaker 1: our culture. Now see, I guess that's the thing for me.
Speaker 1: I don't know if those people were already removed from
Speaker 1: the restaurant, if he was talking to the remaining customers
Speaker 1: in there, I wouldn't have said get the f out.
Speaker 1: Maybe the remaining customers staughter was foul and he was
Speaker 1: explaining what he did and that he told them that
Speaker 1: I talked numerous times to get up the restaurant. There's
Speaker 1: a restaurant in Atlanta called b Qwe shout the BQ.
Speaker 1: I love that restaurant. I put my feet on the
Speaker 1: table right and uh, why would you do that? My
Speaker 1: feet on? My feet on the couch? You got you
Speaker 1: sit on the couch like, you sit on the couch,
Speaker 1: on the couch, and Mama came up, come and came
Speaker 1: over there and said, take my damn feet off the couch. Right.
Speaker 1: You know what I did. I took my damn couch.
Speaker 1: I didn't take it personal. I was like, she right,
Speaker 1: my feet shouldn't be on this couch. And I gotta
Speaker 1: respect people's establishment. You gotta respect people's venue. Respect people
Speaker 1: like like if if that guy came to you and
Speaker 1: told you twice, look, don't do that, please, YadA, YadA YadA,
Speaker 1: and then you still did it as an f you intentionally,
Speaker 1: what do you expect to happen from that point? What
Speaker 1: do you expect? Let's go to the phone lines. Hello,
Speaker 1: who's this eight O three? What's happening in metro? Man? Whatever?
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts? Bro? Man? My thing is just
Speaker 1: like this. I understand what you say. That's cool. That
Speaker 1: is his run. He got his own opinion on that
Speaker 1: for my things too. Where I see whatever music that
Speaker 1: you're playing, that's gonna sit that thing. That's like if
Speaker 1: you go to a cloud and you're going in, they saying,
Speaker 1: you know, buck, give you up. Whatever I'm saying, you're
Speaker 1: gonna have a fight. First of all, your black hard's
Speaker 1: taking away because you said buck before knuck goddamn stuff. Well,
Speaker 1: I look, I'm tought a seven years old ran with
Speaker 1: all that. Man, I'm old school for two. You know
Speaker 1: that's our error. And you're from South Carolina. That's right,
Speaker 1: that's our error. Nun, that is our area. Okay, look then, fun,
Speaker 1: that's too late. Now you ain't knowing. That's right. We
Speaker 1: might have to hang up with you like you're right.
Speaker 1: If man, you're gonna hang up on me, I'm from
Speaker 1: the door three. No, man, go ahead, express yourself. Man,
Speaker 1: were just nucking. Now you go. Now you we start bucking.
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right, It's all good. I'm sucking now.
Speaker 1: It's the music that you sit in the scene with. Man,
Speaker 1: I don't agree with that. You had swag surfing. You
Speaker 1: just start swag surfing and you had dood to brown.
Speaker 1: You just jumped out the car and start shaking bro. Yes,
Speaker 1: but that has nothing to do with anything. What I'm
Speaker 1: saying is it has nothing to do with the music.
Speaker 1: She was being blatantly intentionally disrespectful because he told her
Speaker 1: to stop doing that twice off. Yeah, I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: you can dance in your seat. You can have a
Speaker 1: good time. You don't have to stand on the furniture. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and she only did it because he had told her
Speaker 1: not to do it twice. That's right, that is true.
Speaker 1: It was intentionally disrespectful. Yeah. Now if you got those
Speaker 1: now you know what they call him, the N words.
Speaker 1: You know you're gonna have some of those every where
Speaker 1: you go. So that is goodbye, bro, goodbye, man go
Speaker 1: buck if you know, man down goodness gracious it is
Speaker 1: though he I mean, listen all jokes aside. I mean,
Speaker 1: these awesome neat girls parituals, I can't help it. And
Speaker 1: certain songs come on, I'm gonna let this ask go.
Speaker 1: What a lot of them? If you buckets one of them,
Speaker 1: I can't. Where are you at? Nuck? If you buck,
Speaker 1: We're gonna start nucking and bucking. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: What's song made you? Made you? You shake your ass?
Speaker 1: I want to rock, my uncle Luke, Oh, I do
Speaker 1: want to rock. I want to rock. You can't keep
Speaker 1: still when that comes. So anyway, putting Drom about to
Speaker 1: play that record? He Drom, you can keep drum, you can.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna come right there there and grind right behind
Speaker 1: drum the ground. How did we get here? You know
Speaker 1: how we got here? What story of the story is
Speaker 1: just simply respect people? Like why can't you just respect
Speaker 1: people like he was being respectful? Why couldn't that other
Speaker 1: party just show that respect back? It's simple, and disrespect
Speaker 1: usually will be met with disrespect, that's all. So you
Speaker 1: felt like you got disrespected, it's probably because you put
Speaker 1: that energy of disrespecting somebody else out there. Listen. I
Speaker 1: agree with him that he should have asked those women
Speaker 1: to leave the restaurant if they weren't respecting his business.
Speaker 1: I don't agree with his how he addressed the whole restaurant,
Speaker 1: and he did apologize for that, and I do think
Speaker 1: his wording was wrong, and certain things that he said
Speaker 1: about women respecting themselves, like you can't work but respect yourself.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's true, and so I think what
Speaker 1: he had to say was wrong. But I do think
Speaker 1: when you own a business, you don't want people standing
Speaker 1: on the furniture, pushing on the glass, and you asked
Speaker 1: them politely twice and they continue to do it, they
Speaker 1: gotta go. You know what it reminded me of too.
Speaker 1: You remember that desk it on reasonable doubt after twenty
Speaker 1: two two goes off, Oh can I kick your goals off?
Speaker 1: And Maria Davis is like such and such a such,
Speaker 1: like who wasn't here smoking? Shut up? And You're like,
Speaker 1: that's why we can't have nice things and we need
Speaker 1: to do better. Yeah, that's what it felt like. Honestly,
Speaker 1: somebody need put that on the album, is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: All right, all right, well we got roomors on the way. Yes,
Speaker 1: let's talk about Travis Scott. Now, Forbes did this huge
Speaker 1: article on him about the money that he makes from
Speaker 1: McDonald's PlayStation and Nike deals. Will tell you what that
Speaker 1: looks like. All right, we'll get into that. Next. It's
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Go Morning c j Enzy Angela, Yee,
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the God. We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get
Speaker 1: to the rule as. Let's talk every Day Struggle. Oh
Speaker 1: go Breakfast Club. All right, Well, unfortunate news for Everyday Struggle.
Speaker 1: That show is coming to an end. Wayno, Nadeska Academics.
Speaker 1: The final show is now slated for December seventeenth. Why
Speaker 1: did they say why? Well, okay, so Academics had his
Speaker 1: explanation of the demise of the show, and so according
Speaker 1: to academics, he feels like it had something to do
Speaker 1: with Chrissy Teagan and Freddie Gibbs. Here's what he had
Speaker 1: to say. Yes, it was a very weird moment with
Speaker 1: the Chrissy Teagan thing, but it wasn't only that. I
Speaker 1: received calls from them about other content that they felt
Speaker 1: I probably or shouldn't be engaged in. And I specifically
Speaker 1: told him, I said, listen, while you may look at
Speaker 1: me as I'm the guy on your show, I have
Speaker 1: a whole different brand to run. Remember I got suspended,
Speaker 1: but I remember saying to them, if you guys are
Speaker 1: gonna police what I do off of your platform, not
Speaker 1: realizing that I have to defend my own platform that
Speaker 1: I'm building. I never came here to be an employee.
Speaker 1: Brother of all dropping a clue box for academics microphone.
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's doing that from the house,
Speaker 1: but that audio is fantastic. But yeah, I mean saluting
Speaker 1: my guy, way know, an academic saluting the desk. I
Speaker 1: don't see any of them being synonymous with every day struggle.
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't know of the deska until the platform,
Speaker 1: but way know, an act have been making them mark
Speaker 1: way before that show existed, So I'm sure all three
Speaker 1: of them will be a okay And sadly, that's just
Speaker 1: the lifespan for a lot of hip hop shows, three
Speaker 1: or four years. That's why when folks look back and
Speaker 1: see what the Breakfast Club has been doing for almost
Speaker 1: ten years, next week could be ten years. Actually, y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all appreciate the evolution because I personally feel like we
Speaker 1: show how far you can take it, and we showcase
Speaker 1: to many dimensions of hip hop. Well. He also talks
Speaker 1: about Freddie Gibbs and how he feels like that situation
Speaker 1: where him and Freddy Gibbs had it back and forth
Speaker 1: also played a role. I felt it was a spit
Speaker 1: in the face when complex while trying to tell me
Speaker 1: that I should shut them up, you said something about
Speaker 1: Chrisyatigue and that's not okay. They awarded I mean literally
Speaker 1: a couple days after, they awarded Freddy Gibbs with Like
Speaker 1: Lyricists or like some like award. Even though he was
Speaker 1: saying that he couldn't wait till I die, that he
Speaker 1: could spit on my casket. It told me a lot.
Speaker 1: Welcome to my world. Okay, you know, many artists have
Speaker 1: threatened to kill me and they still get radio play
Speaker 1: and still get invited the concerts. And then I got
Speaker 1: to come to the concerts and introduced him. It happens. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's part of the game. I do complex got rid
Speaker 1: of him because of that. All right, Well, Freddy Gibbs
Speaker 1: of course responded and he said, and you a lie, bitch.
Speaker 1: I didn't say that I was gonna squeeze your breast.
Speaker 1: And then he played the audio proving what what what? What? What? What?
Speaker 1: What did you just say that you there? Freddy Gibbs
Speaker 1: responded to academics, and he said, you would lie. I
Speaker 1: didn't say, yea, I was gonna squeeze. I didn't say that.
Speaker 1: I said I was gonna squeeze your breast. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: And here is that freestyle where he said that castled
Speaker 1: that bitch got that bitch five? You know that that?
Speaker 1: And oh with me, when I catch academic, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: squeeze the Freddy is silly. I wouldn't just say nothing
Speaker 1: about Freddy gut because you already know he's gonna get
Speaker 1: on his Instagram story and have something funny to say
Speaker 1: that I can't. I can't no joke with his word
Speaker 1: player either. Now, okay, that's a good back and forth,
Speaker 1: all right. Now let us discuss ice Cube. Where has
Speaker 1: he been? Or ice Cue posted himself where the hell
Speaker 1: has ice Cube been? And here's what he posted. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been working behind the scenes a few major companies
Speaker 1: who want to do stuff. We all modifying the contract.
Speaker 1: It's taking a minute because you know, we want to
Speaker 1: make sure we're you know, specific hitting all the areas
Speaker 1: that who may have missed, all the people who did
Speaker 1: what I was doing. I'm gonna just watch and see
Speaker 1: what you get out the whole deal here talking about
Speaker 1: I was worried about getting some taxes or something. Anybody
Speaker 1: that would go through all this for some taxes is
Speaker 1: an idiot, all right. So he's still working on it, guys.
Speaker 1: I have faith in ice Cube, unlike a lot of
Speaker 1: other people. You know, I don't know why people would
Speaker 1: ever think that ice Cube would be on the side
Speaker 1: of anything except for the side of blackness. So yeah,
Speaker 1: but I never think ice Cube has bad intentions and
Speaker 1: anything that he's doing. You may not like the way
Speaker 1: he does things, but he definitely his intentions a pure
Speaker 1: all right, now Walmart has revealed that Patty LaBelle so
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred sweet potato pies per hour during Thanksgiving per hour,
Speaker 1: I believe drop on a clue's boss for Queen Patty LaBelle.
Speaker 1: Then that is amazing. Thirty six thousand of her sweet
Speaker 1: potato pies every day. That's how much she sells. So
Speaker 1: that's they said, fifteen hundred per hour. How many hiding
Speaker 1: to call the house for number one? You can call
Speaker 1: the house person. I do check on this LaBelle. I
Speaker 1: got the house number. She got a house for still,
Speaker 1: I got the house numb. But I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't know, all right, And let's talk about Travis Scott
Speaker 1: for a second. They did a Forbes article on him
Speaker 1: about how much money he's making from McDonald's, PlayStation, Nike,
Speaker 1: Dales and all of that. And you know, he has
Speaker 1: a lot of different things going on. He has brands
Speaker 1: that he works with like General Mills, PlayStation, Epic games, McDonald's,
Speaker 1: and for Epic he did that performance Aren't Live concert
Speaker 1: within Fortnite that got twelve million viewers. For McDonald's, who
Speaker 1: did Travis Scott branded menu, They said it was so
Speaker 1: popular that McDonald's had supply shortages and that never happens.
Speaker 1: They said that Travis is a cultural icon. They said,
Speaker 1: the largest story here is that brands historically have told
Speaker 1: celebrities how to say their message. I think it's very
Speaker 1: clear that Travis Scott and his team have gotten through
Speaker 1: to these brands that they have a very clear esthetic,
Speaker 1: messaging and strategy. They said, if he can make McDonald's
Speaker 1: cool the thing of pop culture right now, that's the
Speaker 1: ultimate sign that he's made it. And he made a
Speaker 1: lot of money off of doing that merch too for McDonald's.
Speaker 1: So what they're saying is that he's making more than
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars this year from PlayStation fortnite, McDonald's
Speaker 1: and Nike. God bless I love it, So, you know,
Speaker 1: shout out to him, because they said with the McDonald's merch,
Speaker 1: he bought in about fifteen million dollars from sales from that,
Speaker 1: he made five million dollars from the endorsement aspect of
Speaker 1: the Dale Nike They said, probably earns him about ten
Speaker 1: million a year or so. But the added value that
Speaker 1: the partnership brings him as a go to person for
Speaker 1: brands looking to level up is unquantifiable. Travis out here
Speaker 1: like he bounced into basketball. He got all him damn
Speaker 1: endorsement deals. Drop on a clue, Bob Scott, But don't
Speaker 1: think about travel to see He stays in his lane.
Speaker 1: He does what he wants to do. He don't do
Speaker 1: interviews unless he wants to, like Travis does him and
Speaker 1: I love it. Minding his business. Mind is damn mine
Speaker 1: is black owned business. All right, Well that is your
Speaker 1: rumor reports. All right, thank you, miss ye chall speaking
Speaker 1: of mind your business. Four after the hour, Chicago, Chicago.
Speaker 1: Y'all out here acting like Florida. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But this is a classic case of trauma. But we'll
Speaker 1: discuss it, all right, we'll get into that next keeping
Speaker 1: lock just to breakfast club. For morning, it's time for
Speaker 1: Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Dunky
Speaker 1: of the day a little bit of a mixed so
Speaker 1: like an other day. Now I've been called a lot
Speaker 1: of my twenty three years. But Donkey of the Day
Speaker 1: is a new wife. Yeah, it's Donkey today for Tuesday, December,
Speaker 1: first goes to a Chicago man named James Dixon. James
Speaker 1: is twenty nine years old and he is facing first
Speaker 1: degree murder charges because he's stabbed a brother named Vincell Jackson,
Speaker 1: who was fifty two years old. Rest in piece to
Speaker 1: Vincell Jackson, Now, I know, I know, I know. In
Speaker 1: the words of my guy Jansus nice, you gotta hear
Speaker 1: both sides. Some people can sit back and say some
Speaker 1: stabbings could be justified depending on what happened. Let me
Speaker 1: assure you this isn't one of those times. Okay, let
Speaker 1: me paint the story for you. According to the Chicago Tribune,
Speaker 1: James allegedly had drank several alcoholic beverages prior to the stabbing,
Speaker 1: so he was drunk, and he allegedly punched Vincell Jackson
Speaker 1: in the face, and then the fight moved to the
Speaker 1: front porch. You know, nice little holiday fight. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, keep your blood flowing. But when they
Speaker 1: got to the front porch, Vincell was stabbed nine times,
Speaker 1: leaving him with wounds to his head and face. Now
Speaker 1: what did James Dixon punch Vincell in the face for.
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Chicago Tribune for the report. Police
Speaker 1: I Thanksgiving Guests is accused of killing a Chicago man
Speaker 1: in a fight over putting hands in the leftover food.
Speaker 1: Stop stop right there, Stop stop stop that's very Florida. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, stop for a second before we hear or
Speaker 1: anything else. James Dixon, a Walmart worker with three prior
Speaker 1: felony convictions, including arson, stabbed a man because he put
Speaker 1: his hands in the leftover was not James James. Prior
Speaker 1: to being escorted out of court on Sunday, James asked
Speaker 1: to judge how much time he faces if convicted. The
Speaker 1: judge said, oh, for first degree murder carries twenty to
Speaker 1: sixty years, twenty to sixty years. Because you didn't like
Speaker 1: the fact as someone put their hands and the damn
Speaker 1: leftover Thanksgiving food played a whole clips from the Chicago Tribute.
Speaker 1: A Thanksgiving guest is accused of killing a Chicago man
Speaker 1: in a fight over putting hands in the leftover food.
Speaker 1: James Dixon, thirty nine, was charged with murder after a
Speaker 1: fight early Friday morning that began inside a home and
Speaker 1: spilled outside to the porch. Dixon was spotted digging into
Speaker 1: the leftover food with his bare hands, and the hosts boyfriend,
Speaker 1: fifty two year old VINCEL. Jackson, tried to escort him
Speaker 1: out of the home. Prosecutors said Dixon sucker punch Jackson
Speaker 1: and stab him nine times on the porch. Dixon ran
Speaker 1: away from the house. Jackson later died at a hospital.
Speaker 1: Dixon told investigators he fought with Jackson, but said he
Speaker 1: was stabbed first. Dixon was treated for a small cut
Speaker 1: on his neck and cuts on his fingers at a
Speaker 1: hospital before he was arrested. Now, see, when one knucks,
Speaker 1: you must buck. But there was no knucking going on him. Okay,
Speaker 1: don't tell me you got upset. This man put his
Speaker 1: bad hands in the leftovers because of COVID, because you
Speaker 1: swung on him. There's no such thing as socially distanced fighting. Okay,
Speaker 1: my brother, James Dixon, I don't know what type of
Speaker 1: trauma that you're dealing with that has you in such pain,
Speaker 1: that has you so hurt, that would cause you to
Speaker 1: throw your whole life away and take a whole life
Speaker 1: because he put his bad hands in the leftovers. My god,
Speaker 1: I wish someone, someone would have intervened early on in
Speaker 1: this man, James Dixon's life. Okay, this is why I
Speaker 1: be on Folks ask about going to therapy. That's why
Speaker 1: I be on folks ask about getting some healing, because
Speaker 1: this ain't got nothing to do with no damn Thanksgiving leftovers.
Speaker 1: James was already hurting. He was mad about something else,
Speaker 1: and unfortunately he took it out on Vin Sail. This
Speaker 1: is why I'd be staying out of people's way. Okay,
Speaker 1: hurt people, hurt people, and it's a lot of hurt
Speaker 1: folks walking around and is a common reaction to trauma.
Speaker 1: You be angry at the person, the situation responsible for
Speaker 1: the trauma. You'd be angry at yourself because you be
Speaker 1: blaming yourself for what happened that caused you the trauma,
Speaker 1: and that makes you more irritable than usual, and you
Speaker 1: have a hard time understanding why you keep snapping in folks.
Speaker 1: It's because you traumatize full and you need to go
Speaker 1: deal with that hurt and stop taking it out on
Speaker 1: other people. And that's what happened to Vincell. He was
Speaker 1: the victim of the trauma that James Dixon has inside
Speaker 1: of him that he hasn't dealt with. So I have
Speaker 1: empathy for both parties here, Okay, James and Vincell, But
Speaker 1: God damn James leftovers, My g you're facing twenty to
Speaker 1: sixty years because someone put their bare hand in the leftovers.
Speaker 1: That's not worth going to prison for. No twenty sixty
Speaker 1: years and have a man put his bad hands in
Speaker 1: your boogie. Please let Remy Mark give James Dixon the
Speaker 1: biggest he hall he ha ha, You stupid mother, are you?
Speaker 1: The only thing can make this story worse is if
Speaker 1: the leftovers were today day old. Okay, if you still
Speaker 1: eating Thanksgiving leftovers right now, you kind of deserved to
Speaker 1: get swung on. I'm just saying, don't judge anybody. I
Speaker 1: just threw mine out yesterday. Last night, I threw mine out,
Speaker 1: justed it. But we have been stopped eating them though,
Speaker 1: but I threw I did throw mine out, justed it,
Speaker 1: and I felt bad. But I'm like, why would I
Speaker 1: give this to somebody and I wouldn't even eat it,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So let the raccoons have
Speaker 1: it in the bears and the DearS and whatever else
Speaker 1: the possums. Yeah, all right, well, thank you for that
Speaker 1: donkey today. Now when we come back, m grand Master
Speaker 1: Maurice Astley will be joining us. Explain who that is
Speaker 1: now he's up, Jamaican American Chess Grandmaster from Brooklyn. He
Speaker 1: gets busy in chest. It's not too many grand masters,
Speaker 1: it's not too many black grand masters. So he is
Speaker 1: a black grand master. He's gonna talk about how he
Speaker 1: got into the chest. So he's the man in chess.
Speaker 1: He's like the lebron James of Chester. Patrick mahomes a
Speaker 1: chess absolutely. I mean, I've been watching this thing on
Speaker 1: Netflix called Queen's Gambit that's all about chess, watching that too.
Speaker 1: I've been loving it so Um the fact that shout
Speaker 1: out to him, Yeah, shout out to him, because you know,
Speaker 1: I've heard about him for so long because I used
Speaker 1: to work for woods Hang and they're so big into chess,
Speaker 1: and he's like a major hero for them. So I'm excited.
Speaker 1: You know how to play chess. I do know how
Speaker 1: to play chess. I learned because of them, you know,
Speaker 1: I know what how to play chess. No, I lie
Speaker 1: like I do though, like in life, I'll say things
Speaker 1: like this is chess, not checkers. Don't even know what
Speaker 1: the hell that means. I do know how to play chess.
Speaker 1: Takes a lot, a lot of patients, and sometimes you
Speaker 1: you overthink. You overthink so much about what moved because
Speaker 1: if you like, if I move here and then he
Speaker 1: moves there, and then I move this, But then what
Speaker 1: if he moves this and then I have to move here?
Speaker 1: Is a lot is thinking thinking ten steps ahead? Why
Speaker 1: do we disrespect how to play chess? Why do we
Speaker 1: disrespect checkers like that, as if checkers isn't a intricate
Speaker 1: game as well? I think the thing about that that's
Speaker 1: different is that all the pieces move differently. Yeah, different
Speaker 1: play Yeah, different pieces different ways. One might move to
Speaker 1: the left, one differently. I don't know how to play chess,
Speaker 1: but I listened to wool Tang and I love the
Speaker 1: movie Fresh. It's one of my favorite movies, So therefore
Speaker 1: I love chess. That's all you got him? All right? Well,
Speaker 1: Maurice Astley, Grandmaster Maurice Ashley. When we come back, it's
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody's
Speaker 1: DJ Envy and ngul Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we all
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Grandmaster Maurice Astley. Charlomagne.
Speaker 1: I love the fact that you know you're you're a grandmaster,
Speaker 1: because that's just something people don't see, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Black people. A lot of times we go
Speaker 1: towards athletics entertainment, but I feel like you would inspire
Speaker 1: so many just because you've made money doing what you
Speaker 1: love to do. When you're playing chess, It's exactly right.
Speaker 1: It's a big issue for me as well. You know,
Speaker 1: I went to Rikers Island once to teach young people
Speaker 1: at Rikers. I'm talking about seventeen eighteen, nineteen year olds
Speaker 1: and I came in the first day and the teacher
Speaker 1: introduced me as a grandmaster and a young brother in
Speaker 1: the back looked at him and said, there's no way
Speaker 1: he's a grand master. I thought he was going to
Speaker 1: be Asian or something. Oh wow wow. Yeah. And you know,
Speaker 1: that really hurts me because it spoke to the fact
Speaker 1: that when we see us as athletic, as athletes and
Speaker 1: rappers and the like, it's easy and that's our perception
Speaker 1: even of ourselves. And to see a fellow black man
Speaker 1: walk in the room and be a chess grandmaster, not
Speaker 1: only did it shock him if he insisted that it
Speaker 1: wasn't true. And so we've got to fix that. We're diverse,
Speaker 1: we have talents in multiple areas, and we need to
Speaker 1: promote our intellectuals that are doing big things in many
Speaker 1: different fields. What does it take to be a grand master? Like?
Speaker 1: What does it take to get that on your name? Like?
Speaker 1: What does it take? What's the process? The International Chess
Speaker 1: Federation has a very rigorous process based on who you
Speaker 1: play against. They have to be rated players, they have
Speaker 1: to be internationally ranked as well. There has to be
Speaker 1: grand masters in the group of players who competed against,
Speaker 1: and they store their ranking. There's a formula that says
Speaker 1: you have to perform at this level. How many women
Speaker 1: grand masters are there currently? The thirty seven women grandmasters
Speaker 1: in the world. Women are vastly underrepresented in the sport.
Speaker 1: It's something that we're trying to address. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you saw the movie, the Netflix series of Queen's
Speaker 1: Gambit that's just tearing up the airways right now. It's
Speaker 1: actually the most popular Netflix series in the world, and
Speaker 1: I think it's mainly because of, Okay, the storyline, it
Speaker 1: was really well done, but also seeing a woman do
Speaker 1: her thing in that rarefied air has got a lot
Speaker 1: of people excited. Do you actually drink Henessey Murray's I
Speaker 1: do I do? From time to time? I don't you
Speaker 1: know they gave me like you don't even want to know.
Speaker 1: I got like the liquor store in my apartment right now.
Speaker 1: But you know, I chill. I chill a little bit.
Speaker 1: I love a little cocktail once twice. How did you
Speaker 1: feel when they reached out to you for the Black
Speaker 1: Excellence campaign. I was stunned, to be honest, it was
Speaker 1: absolutely incredible. It was an honor. I knew about the
Speaker 1: campaign that Never Stopped, Never Settled while Rabbit campaign based
Speaker 1: on the story they did with Major Taylor Marshall Taylor
Speaker 1: the cyclist from the nineteen hundreds, and I only knew
Speaker 1: about it because I saw Hennessy Ads. I only knew
Speaker 1: about him because I saw Hennessy Ads while I was
Speaker 1: watching the NBA games. And when I found out they
Speaker 1: were gonna do me and that possibly my commercial is
Speaker 1: gonna run during an NBA playoffs while I'm watching Lebron
Speaker 1: getting done. And then on top of that, just thinking
Speaker 1: about the memories the people who raised me, my mom,
Speaker 1: who sacrifice all she sacrificed so that her kids could
Speaker 1: come to the United States. I'm from Jamaica originally, and
Speaker 1: you know she was apart from us for ten years
Speaker 1: and my grandmother in her older days, raising us while
Speaker 1: my mom was away. My dad as well, turning his
Speaker 1: life around so he could be a part of our lives.
Speaker 1: And you know, it's just amazing to later have this
Speaker 1: opportunity to represent where I'm from and the people who
Speaker 1: really got me to where I am today. Who introduced
Speaker 1: you to chess? I first learned from my brother. My
Speaker 1: brother played with his but it was like any game.
Speaker 1: It was like check, it was Mike Monopoly. I didn't
Speaker 1: get serious until I got to high school, and that's
Speaker 1: when I fell in love with it and just played
Speaker 1: all day. I was one of the nerds in high school,
Speaker 1: you know, one of the kids. You know, Angela. She
Speaker 1: wouldn't even looked at me back in the day. She
Speaker 1: would have been like, oh, come on, man, he's like
Speaker 1: lords now a little there you go. You know, they
Speaker 1: usually come around later. They usually come around to the
Speaker 1: nerds later. Yeah, boyfriend gets killed and sent to jail.
Speaker 1: I'll be real, Maurice. I knew. I knew when radio
Speaker 1: was my passion, right, When did you know chess was
Speaker 1: your passion? High school? I was lit up in high school, man,
Speaker 1: that was it. I just wanted to do it every day.
Speaker 1: My grade started slipping. My mother was talking to me, like,
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do with chess? Where's the money
Speaker 1: in chess? But I just really wanted to do it.
Speaker 1: I didn't even plan it. I just wanted to do
Speaker 1: it every single day. I didn't know what the money
Speaker 1: was gonna be. Like, I wanted to become a grandmaster.
Speaker 1: That's all I knew. Do You got to imagine a
Speaker 1: young brother in Brownsville, Brooklyn, in chess books in his apartment.
Speaker 1: You know, gunshots is going outside, and all I'm doing
Speaker 1: is studying chess every day. I mean imagine that. I
Speaker 1: was just so passionate about it. I just wanted It's
Speaker 1: all I wanted to do. And I can't believe, you know,
Speaker 1: years later, becoming a grand master, getting inducted into the
Speaker 1: US Chess Hall of Fame. It's like a miracle. It's crazy.
Speaker 1: I have so much respect for the game too. When
Speaker 1: I used to be on tour with woutang Ah, they
Speaker 1: used to do backstage. People would think it would be wild,
Speaker 1: but they'll be back there playing chess for hours before
Speaker 1: they perform, and that's how they would like Rizen and
Speaker 1: Jizza at least that's how they would get ready. It's amazing, man,
Speaker 1: It's an amazing game. Makes you mentally tough, to get
Speaker 1: you focused. It's just the type of game that transforms
Speaker 1: a lot of your thinking patterns. It helps you to
Speaker 1: manage life better, manage business better. It's just fantastic. And
Speaker 1: I'm not surprised. Man, those guys just in they're the
Speaker 1: real deal. When when did you make your first dollar?
Speaker 1: When did you be like, when did you say to yourself, well,
Speaker 1: I can make money off this. And at what point
Speaker 1: did you go to mom and say, Mom, look, you
Speaker 1: know it's funny. Came to me. It was an old
Speaker 1: Jewish lady. Your name was Betty Dikeman. She's passed on,
Speaker 1: but she came up to me and said that they
Speaker 1: had a chess program in the with the America's Chess
Speaker 1: Foundation that was bringing chess to inner city kids and
Speaker 1: would i'd be interested in teaching kids in the Bronx
Speaker 1: and in Harlem. And I was in college at the time,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't know, you know, sounds interesting.
Speaker 1: And then they said, well, you know, for your level
Speaker 1: of play, will pay you fifty dollars an hour. I
Speaker 1: was like, what college kid fifty an hour. I mean
Speaker 1: it was only like eight to ten hours a week,
Speaker 1: but still going to college and bringing that down. I
Speaker 1: was like, yo, this is it right here. You know
Speaker 1: when moms heard that, she was eyes lit up like okay,
Speaker 1: now you're finally getting paid, and it was you know,
Speaker 1: it's all gravy after that, absolutely, little Maurice. I appreciate
Speaker 1: you for checking in and inspiring the youth. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: how and how did they get in touch with you?
Speaker 1: Do you got like a, I don't know, a class
Speaker 1: or something that's available some way to the tea young kids?
Speaker 1: You know, how to be like Marie. Well, you know,
Speaker 1: we have chess programs in Brooklyn with the Police Athletic League.
Speaker 1: But if you really want to find out about me,
Speaker 1: you can just go on our website Maurice Ashley dot
Speaker 1: com and I'm on all the social medias. You know,
Speaker 1: you can hit me there too. All right, Well it's
Speaker 1: Maurice Ashley. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Thank you brother,
Speaker 1: thank you morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to
Speaker 1: the rumors. Let's talk Steph Curry. This is the rumor
Speaker 1: report with angela year Breakfast Clubs. Well, Steph Curry is
Speaker 1: going to be creating a new brand with under Armour.
Speaker 1: It's called Curry Brand, so it's gonna be footwear, apparel
Speaker 1: and accessories. And that extends his relationship with under Armour
Speaker 1: beyond his sneaker deal that he did back in twenty thirteen.
Speaker 1: Is that, um, he got equity and under Armor right
Speaker 1: then you got yeah yeah, okay, sooth to Steph Curry. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you usually got your shares at let'sten. That's why I
Speaker 1: was excited because I'm really hoping one day these shares
Speaker 1: going back up because I do have yes, some stuck
Speaker 1: in under armed kind of break down on us. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll see hopefully shot back up. I just held on
Speaker 1: to it all the time and did nothing, so hopefully
Speaker 1: something really happens. Come on, Steph Curry. Let's go now.
Speaker 1: Laverne Cox, let's talk about her. Her and her friend
Speaker 1: were victims of a transphobic attack and she said it
Speaker 1: is not safe in this world. Here is her account
Speaker 1: of what happened. Just walking through the park talking to
Speaker 1: my friend and then we passed this guy and the
Speaker 1: guy very aggressively asked for the time as he passes us,
Speaker 1: and my friend who I'm with that tells him the time.
Speaker 1: I sit and watch and tells him the time, and
Speaker 1: then the guy who had asked for the time says
Speaker 1: to my friend guy or girl. My friend says off,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, the guy is attacking
Speaker 1: my friend. She called nine one one and and she
Speaker 1: said it was over. The guy was gone and he
Speaker 1: just disappeared after that. You know, just to be minding
Speaker 1: your business and has somebody come up and attack you
Speaker 1: like that, it's crazy. Well, you know, on the side
Speaker 1: or not to say that they do it, they did
Speaker 1: anything wrong. But my daughter goes to school a NYU
Speaker 1: And that's the first thing I tell us. If somebody
Speaker 1: asks you a question, if they ask you, what time
Speaker 1: is it? I don't have a watch, Well you have
Speaker 1: your phone. My phone is dead. Like, don't talk to anybody.
Speaker 1: Keep it moving because people are crazy, people are nuts,
Speaker 1: especially just something right. But you know what, even if
Speaker 1: they said that, I feel like he still would have
Speaker 1: been harassing them. Yeah, maybe he came out there with
Speaker 1: the intention of doing something. No matter what they said,
Speaker 1: they're not saying they did anything wrong. But I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: just people all crazy, give people the better fit of
Speaker 1: the doubt. No, I don't have nothing. I don't know nothing.
Speaker 1: I've said on this radio a million times. You know.
Speaker 1: All we do is wake up every day and try
Speaker 1: to avoid other people's pain, try to avoid other people's hurt.
Speaker 1: I don't like I don't like the us the word crazy.
Speaker 1: We try to avoid other people's trauma because people are nuts. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, guys. And even right now, because of COVID,
Speaker 1: people are not getting the necessary medicine. So I'm seeing
Speaker 1: it a lot worse. Like New York looks like zombies. Yes,
Speaker 1: it does in Midtown. Hell yeah, all right. Kevin Harts
Speaker 1: laugh out Loud has teamed up with Headspace, and that's
Speaker 1: for mindfulness content. So they'll be working with them to
Speaker 1: produce programming for both the Headspace app and for the
Speaker 1: laugh out Loud YouTube digital channels and so some things
Speaker 1: and people that they'll be working with include Amanda Seals.
Speaker 1: I guess she'll be showing how she does. They're doing
Speaker 1: this YouTube series Meditate with Me, so hassamnage. Amanda Sales
Speaker 1: Dion Cole will take people through their meditation journeys, and
Speaker 1: they're also going to plan two pieces of content that
Speaker 1: will live within the Headspace app, Energy Shots with Kevin,
Speaker 1: which is a three to five minute daily motivational message
Speaker 1: encouraging listeners to take healthier actions that will be available
Speaker 1: to Headspace plus subscribers through the wake Up Hub and
Speaker 1: Mindful Runs. It's part of the move Hub that will
Speaker 1: feature Kevin Hart guiding and motivating Headspace plus members during
Speaker 1: their workouts. You know, I'm here for that. That's a
Speaker 1: great segue from what we was just talking about. You know,
Speaker 1: people gotta, you know, do things to deal with their trauma,
Speaker 1: deal with their pain, you know what I mean, deal
Speaker 1: with you know, whatever issues they may be going through. Uh,
Speaker 1: going through that's an internal so you know, dropping a
Speaker 1: clue for Kevin Half for that. She to a man
Speaker 1: the Seals and love you Seals. Shout out to a
Speaker 1: man the Seals, and shout out to Mama Seales. Every
Speaker 1: year they send like a big huge basket of fruit
Speaker 1: for the family and the kids. So yes, I got
Speaker 1: it a couple of days ago, a bunch of oranges
Speaker 1: and stuff. Great fruit. Oh I got range. I thought
Speaker 1: it was oranges too. And then when you could it open.
Speaker 1: You realized it's grateful, but I thought it was range
Speaker 1: just as well. I gotta send Mama Seals some some tea.
Speaker 1: Send her basket to tea. All right now, Selena Gomez,
Speaker 1: there are some jokes about her on the news Saved
Speaker 1: by the Bell reboot that's on Peacock, and they actually
Speaker 1: referenced her kidney transplant. Listen to this, No, I know
Speaker 1: for a fact to Selena Gomes is kidney Jenner was
Speaker 1: justin Bieber's mom. I tho, I had my phone so
Speaker 1: that I could prove it true. What that You're an idiot?
Speaker 1: It was Jimmy Lovato's kidney. The best friends like you
Speaker 1: and I were what. So you know, Selena Gomez did
Speaker 1: have a kidney transplant, and she was very vocal about it,
Speaker 1: you know, and she talked about her best friend giving
Speaker 1: her her kidney and it was a huge situation when
Speaker 1: it happened. Also in this episode, it says does Selena
Speaker 1: Gomez even have kidneys? That was some graffiti that was
Speaker 1: written on the wall. So a lot of people thought
Speaker 1: the jokes were disgusting and they said that her life
Speaker 1: or death transplant was nothing to make jokes about. So
Speaker 1: since that happened, that series has scrubbed all references to
Speaker 1: her kidney transplant, and that edited version is streaming now,
Speaker 1: so you can't even find it anymore. Vado have to
Speaker 1: do with it nothing. It wasn't even the person that
Speaker 1: donated the kidney. I guess they were just making jokes.
Speaker 1: So I love the record with gez Demi Lovado on
Speaker 1: Little Duval. Well, we're not playing that. Get that on
Speaker 1: in the mix, Envy, the prerecorded mix that you did
Speaker 1: on Money. If you play back the day, ask me nicely,
Speaker 1: no good, no, all right? And I know we also
Speaker 1: have something to talk about with Robin Hood, right DJ Envy, Yes,
Speaker 1: that's right. To night at seven pm, television and radio
Speaker 1: stations are joining together to present Heroes of New York
Speaker 1: Rivalhood special. That's right. That happened tonight seven to a
Speaker 1: pm Eastern Time, and so one hour showed I was
Speaker 1: shining a light on the heroic efforts by New Yorkers
Speaker 1: from all walks of life to help their neighbors in
Speaker 1: need recover from the impact of the saying they don't
Speaker 1: read put it in your own words? Did put that
Speaker 1: in my own words? I ain't reading nothing sound like
Speaker 1: you read it, No them, tell them who The show
Speaker 1: will feature appearances by Daddy, Well, of course it's gonna

Speaker 1: a whole host of people from the Number one Giants, Davidson,
Speaker 1: Mariah Carry. You should have put us last after all
Speaker 1: these names, some big names, right, Well, you know, I
Speaker 1: think it's important though. They are going to be shining
Speaker 1: a light on heroic efforts by New Yorkers from all
Speaker 1: different walks of life, These everyday heroes who have helped
Speaker 1: the city's most vulnerable survive, carry on and also rebuilt.
Speaker 1: So we want to make sure we acknowledge. Yeah, those people,
Speaker 1: their heroes. And Robin the Robin Hood Foundation has you know,
Speaker 1: been doing a lot of good things during the COVID pandemic.
Speaker 1: They've been on the front lines. They're raised over twenty
Speaker 1: five million dollars to fund more than six hundred organizations
Speaker 1: to provide food, shelter, healthcare, education services, and even cash
Speaker 1: in some cases. So suit to my guy, who's more
Speaker 1: and everybody at the Robin Hood Foundation. Okay, well you
Speaker 1: can again tonight at seven pm on all New York
Speaker 1: television and radio stations. And can I give a shameless plug.
Speaker 1: This has nothing It's also national. This has nothing to
Speaker 1: do with me. I just want to encourage people to
Speaker 1: watch Jingle Jangle on Netflix. Jingle Jangle is goddamn amazing.
Speaker 1: I watch Jingle Jangle six times. Okay, I sat down
Speaker 1: to my wife wanted us to watch it as a family,
Speaker 1: so we watched it on Thanksgiving night. I almost cried
Speaker 1: four times. And then when I started drinking and got
Speaker 1: on that edible, I watched it again tears. I watched
Speaker 1: it four times o the weekend, so much so that
Speaker 1: my twelve year old daughter was like she was talking
Speaker 1: to her on on the phone. I was like, have
Speaker 1: you seen jingle Jego? Yeah? My daughter was like, yes,
Speaker 1: don't say it loud because my dad's gonna hear, and
Speaker 1: you're gonna turn it on again. Instant Classic Man, Ralphie
Speaker 1: and a Christmas Story has always been my goal to
Speaker 1: in regard to the holiday movies, but now Journey and
Speaker 1: Jingle Jangle is in that rotation. I'm telling you, I
Speaker 1: gotta watch it. They sent me a hold. They sent
Speaker 1: me a whole Jingle Jango gift box that was amazing.
Speaker 1: Excuse me. It was a whole bunch of hair products
Speaker 1: in male organics. It was gift bags, all kinds of things.
Speaker 1: It's really nice. I didn't get none of that. But
Speaker 1: Jingle Jangle was fantastic, I mean incredible, like instant classic.
Speaker 1: I loved it. It made me feel like the first
Speaker 1: time I heard jeez thug motivation one on one. I
Speaker 1: can't explain to you with that feeling, all right, I'm
Speaker 1: just telling you that it's incredible, all right, I love it. Well,
Speaker 1: thank you for that room of report. When we come
Speaker 1: back to People's Choice Mixes to Breakfast Club morning Morning,
Speaker 1: everybody is ste Envy, Angela Charlomine, the guy. We all
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Now. Today is December first, my Dad's birthday.
Speaker 1: Happy birthday, Pops. But not only is it my dad's birthday,
Speaker 1: it's also World Age Day and we have a special
Speaker 1: guest on the line we haven't seen in a while
Speaker 1: because of COVID and the pandemic. We have David John.
Speaker 1: Welcome back, brother. I appreciate you. It's good to be
Speaker 1: with y'all. Virtually sad that we can't be together in person.
Speaker 1: I like your light and David, you got the nice
Speaker 1: back like dark, but it's like you got the ring
Speaker 1: light of something I do. Yes, okay, carry was like
Speaker 1: just shining light. Yes, that's exactly what I want. That's
Speaker 1: what's on you. Nothing else matter. We always team up
Speaker 1: with David John's to do something that Juice is for Life,
Speaker 1: and we do HIV testing and we always make sure
Speaker 1: we're very active with that. But this year, obviously we
Speaker 1: can't do that. So let's talk about World Age Day
Speaker 1: and even how this pandemic is shifting. Also some of
Speaker 1: the concerns that we have. Yeah, I'm really sad that
Speaker 1: we can't be together in person. One of the things
Speaker 1: that I've looked forward to every year is highlighting the
Speaker 1: fact that too often our communities, Black and Latin X
Speaker 1: communities are most disupforceately affected by things like COVID, by
Speaker 1: things like HIV, and there's no such thing as democratized healthcare,
Speaker 1: and so we're able to show up in our communities
Speaker 1: and provide the resources that we need. What we've seen
Speaker 1: over the last four years as a divestment of retrenchment
Speaker 1: from the progress that we have been making prior to
Speaker 1: the administration that I will not name. And what we
Speaker 1: also have seen is that so many members of our community,
Speaker 1: black folks, latin X folks, black LGBTQ folks have been
Speaker 1: affected by the COVID exacerbation of this crisis. And so
Speaker 1: what we saw is that there were a lot of
Speaker 1: organizations who prior to COVID were investing and reducing stigma
Speaker 1: around HIV, increasing access to testing, a lot of the
Speaker 1: things that the National Our Justice Coalition focuses on. But
Speaker 1: once COVID hit around March, all of that shifted and
Speaker 1: then people were looking for the new shiny ball. And
Speaker 1: so what we know is that there isn't data collected
Speaker 1: based on people's intersectional identities. There isn't really a lot
Speaker 1: of data that charted individuals who were living with HIV
Speaker 1: or who were predisposed to be HIV positive how they
Speaker 1: were affected by COVID. But what we know anecdotally as
Speaker 1: numbers of our community suffered disproportionately. So it has been
Speaker 1: a problem this administration and COVID and the other crises
Speaker 1: made it a problem and we still within our communities
Speaker 1: have to be sounding the alarm to stop people from
Speaker 1: dying unnecessarily. I was asking earlier, I was gonna say
Speaker 1: that has anything changed? You know, we recognize World World
Speaker 1: Age Day every year and we talk about the testing,
Speaker 1: But is there anything closer to I guess a vaccine
Speaker 1: or any type of ute treatment or cure. You know,
Speaker 1: is there are we getting any closer to it? Yes,
Speaker 1: and things have changed, especially if you're white or have
Speaker 1: access to the privilege associated with whiteness. So we've talked
Speaker 1: about this on this platform before, prep as a thing
Speaker 1: that has made it such that a lot of communities
Speaker 1: who were predisposed to HIV no longer have the eggs
Speaker 1: is around it because you can take a pillow every
Speaker 1: day that reduces the likelihood significantly. In the last four years,
Speaker 1: in spite of the things that this administration has not done,
Speaker 1: there have been significant investments and people being undetectable. So
Speaker 1: what that means is that if you're living with HIV,
Speaker 1: if you're HIV positive, your viral load of suppress such
Speaker 1: that when you take a test for HIV will not
Speaker 1: test positive. Right, and so again this is about your
Speaker 1: viral load being suppressed and you're not being able to
Speaker 1: transmit HIV to a partner, to an intimate partner, even
Speaker 1: if you have unprotected sex. And so we know that
Speaker 1: people are thriving with HIV. I think now about Big
Speaker 1: Sean who has a line, but I didn't think Kobe
Speaker 1: would leave before Magic, right, Like, it is still a
Speaker 1: thing for us to remember that there are people thriving
Speaker 1: with HIV. And it is also the sad reality that
Speaker 1: in spite of the fact that Black people make up
Speaker 1: around thirteen percent of the population in the United States,
Speaker 1: we're nearly half of all cases of HIV. And so
Speaker 1: the point I'm trying to make is that there have
Speaker 1: been progress for some for some communities, we've seen the
Speaker 1: rates of HIV go down, the numbers of people who
Speaker 1: are undetectable increase, but it is still a problem in
Speaker 1: the Black community and not just black quitter trans and
Speaker 1: on binary folks who we tend to think about when
Speaker 1: we talk about things like HIV, but black sis had
Speaker 1: or sexual people. Black women, and I've said this before,
Speaker 1: Black women right are the most effective group of any women,
Speaker 1: and that is because we are still not having as
Speaker 1: many conversations as we should about stigma. We're not having
Speaker 1: as many conversations as we should about sexual wellness more generally,
Speaker 1: and we're not taking advantage of the medical advancements that exist.
Speaker 1: Why aren't more people ringing the alarms about HIV and
Speaker 1: A goo David? Because, like I promise you, though, I
Speaker 1: really only hear about it when you come on the
Speaker 1: show for HIV you know awareness Day, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't hear about it, do idea? Yeah? I think that
Speaker 1: there's not enough attention paid to conversations around HIV and
Speaker 1: popular media. And so while we have centered other things
Speaker 1: in media, For example, there's a lot of conversation about
Speaker 1: groundbreaking things like polls that have invited us to have
Speaker 1: more conversations about individuals with trans experience, the footnote here
Speaker 1: is that that has also increased violence. This year, we
Speaker 1: have seen more black trans women murder than eighty years
Speaker 1: since the data has been collected. We also celebrate the
Speaker 1: life of Monica Roberts, the transgriel who wrote these stories.
Speaker 1: But I'll offer that as an example to say that
Speaker 1: the media and others have been intentional and highlighting stories
Speaker 1: that we need to talk more about, the same attention
Speaker 1: has not been paid to HIV and AIDS. There's just
Speaker 1: not enough discussion about it. I think the second thing
Speaker 1: is that this year, in particular, there were just so
Speaker 1: many battles to face right and to fight, especially when
Speaker 1: you think about this last administration. To be clear, there's
Speaker 1: still work to be done in the new one. People
Speaker 1: are celebrating this new day, but we still got a
Speaker 1: whole lot of work to do. But I think that
Speaker 1: people were really distracted. And then the last thing is
Speaker 1: that the last administration was really destructive. He who shall
Speaker 1: not be named disbandard the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV
Speaker 1: and AIDS patcha withdrew withdrew fards that have been invested
Speaker 1: prior to that administ station, regardless of the political party
Speaker 1: of the person that occupied the Oval Office, and really
Speaker 1: seemed to be intentional wanting to destroy all of the
Speaker 1: resources that the government had been investing. And so I
Speaker 1: highlight that again to say that while there are so
Speaker 1: many resources that exist, medical, social, scientific, and otherwise, there
Speaker 1: have still been people, including the occupant of the Oval Office,
Speaker 1: who worked against all of the science and knowledge that
Speaker 1: we know and should otherwise be imploying. So what can
Speaker 1: we be doing this year on world AI's day to
Speaker 1: make sure that we show our support and that we
Speaker 1: continue to educate and spread that knowledge. Yeah, I appreciate
Speaker 1: that question. If you can safely stop by Juicus Life,
Speaker 1: get yourself some juice and make sure that you're attending
Speaker 1: to your wellness. The other thing is that everybody should
Speaker 1: think about testing at home. The scientific and medical advancements
Speaker 1: have made it such that you don't have to go
Speaker 1: to a clinic or mobile testing unit to be tested.
Speaker 1: You can have a kit sent to your home and
Speaker 1: you can be tested. The concern there is that usually
Speaker 1: when we test, especially at places like Juicus for Life
Speaker 1: a public, we have experts there who are equipped to
Speaker 1: respond and support you no matter what the results are. Again,
Speaker 1: HIV is not the death sentence that it once was.
Speaker 1: There are people in our community who are thriving with it,
Speaker 1: and so having someone with you who's trained to support
Speaker 1: no matter what the response is, it's incredibly important if
Speaker 1: you're going to test at home. And then the last
Speaker 1: thing is that people should do more of this. I'm
Speaker 1: super thankful to you all for being consistent in sharing
Speaker 1: this platform because we need to start talking to stop HIV.
Speaker 1: That's not just a hashtag guard slogan. It's a real thing,
Speaker 1: and so I really hope that I know today is
Speaker 1: a busy day, an additionalle ages day. It's also giving
Speaker 1: Tuesday an opportunity to invest in nonprofit organizations like NBJC,
Speaker 1: and I hope that people have conversation. So talk with
Speaker 1: people that you're intimate with about their sexual practices, what
Speaker 1: they're doing to ensure that they are safe and well
Speaker 1: and enjoy sex, and and then you can talk about
Speaker 1: what you're doing as well. People should be tested regularly.
Speaker 1: If you are having sex, you should be tested for
Speaker 1: everything consistently, right three to six months. That's I want
Speaker 1: to remind people to do that. And then if you
Speaker 1: need help, I acknowledge this is not an easy thing
Speaker 1: to do. We've worked through this. We talked about language.
Speaker 1: We have a resource TOOLKITU at NBJC dot org. We
Speaker 1: provide language, We provide activities that you can follow. There
Speaker 1: are movies that you can watch, like ninety Days, which
Speaker 1: is a film about a heterosexual couple who deal with
Speaker 1: the topic of HIV in a way that I will
Speaker 1: not spoil. But all of it to say that there
Speaker 1: are tools to help anyone who desires to have this conversation.
Speaker 1: All right, well, thank you for checking in. As always,
Speaker 1: we appreciate you, David John on World's AIDS Day, and
Speaker 1: thank you brother. Let's get free pressure. I appreciate y'all.
