Episode Overview

This special edition of "Donkey of the Day" is the “People’s Donkey,” where listeners are invited to call in and nominate deserving recipients for Charlamagne’s signature “Hee-Haw” – a lighthearted but pointed call-out for foolish behavior. With Valentine’s Day approaching, the episode sets a fitting tone: examining relationship drama, accountability, and self-reflection. Charlamagne encourages the audience to look in the mirror and admit when they're the problem, not just the victim of others’ actions.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Valentine’s Day Context & Call for Self-Reflection

[02:22]
Charlamagne establishes the mood by addressing listeners who may be alone on Valentine’s Day. He pivots from his usual practice of shaming the “loveless” and instead invites listeners to discuss real reasons why relationships don’t work—spotlighting individual accountability.

• Charlamagne: “Some of y’all don’t got nobody because some people ain’t hitting on nothing... but today is your opportunity to give them the biggest he haw.”

---

2. Caller One – Deceived by AJ

[03:22 – 04:41]
A caller named "Star" wants to give a “Hee-Haw” to AJ, a man who dated her for six months while secretly living with a girlfriend.

• She shares she’s from New York, now in Florida, and jests about the reputation of “craziest people come from Florida and the Bronx.”
• Charlamagne: “Salute AJ because it ain’t nothing worse than having to eat two pom poms on Valentine’s Day.”
• Star’s story highlights deception and the emotional fallout of being a “side piece” without realizing it.

Memorable Quote:

• Caller (Star): [03:28] “I want to give the biggest hee haw to this guy who was leading me on for six months just to find out that he was living with his girlfriend the whole time.”

---

3. Caller Two – Truck Driver vs. The Economy

[04:48 – 05:35]
A lighthearted call from a trucker frustrated by inflation and stagnant wages.

• Caller: “I want to get the biggest he haw to the economy. The price is going up and the pay is going down.”
• The conversation turns to personal lives and birthday shout-outs, with Charlamagne and Envy joking about truckers’ appeal to co-host Jess.

---

4. Caller Three – Accountability & Family Struggles

[05:35 – 09:41]
Alison (sometimes called Alicia in the transcript), calls to give not just her two baby daddies, “Big C” and “Squirrel,” a “donkey,” but also herself.

• Big C has never been present in their son’s life and just got out of jail, failing even to inform their son about a great-grandmother’s funeral.
• Squirrel ignores calls and refuses to contribute to their daughter’s prom dress.
• Alison gives herself the donkey for “even giving them any of me,” exemplifying radical self-accountability.
• She shares she’ll spend Valentine’s Day with her kids and plans a night out with cousins instead of a date.
• Charlamagne: “I love a woman that can take some accountability.”

Notable Quotes:

• Alison: [05:43] “I want to get the biggest he haw to both my baby daddies… but they need the Remy Donkey.”
• Alison: [06:01] “Big C been trash since the beginning. I get myself donkey too, for even giving them any of me…”
• Charlamagne: [08:28] “It’s a lot of women right now lying to themselves, saying they ain’t got nobody, cause ain’t nobody out there on their level… Your level is in hell. You need to raise your vibration, ma’.”

Memorable Moment:

• Alison admits to her own poor choices in men, leading to a frank conversation about picking the wrong partners and accepting responsibility.

---

5. The Accountability Challenge — Who's Really the Problem?

[09:41 – 11:08]
Charlamagne shifts to the larger theme: accountability, especially for women who may struggle in relationships.

• He provocatively asks, “How many of you ladies out there know you the problem?”
• DJ Envy predicts few will admit to this, especially pre-Valentine’s Day.
• Charlamagne insists their listeners are self-aware and calls for women to reflect and call in if they’re “the problem.”

Memorable Quote:

• Charlamagne: [10:19] “There’s a lot of women who feel… like they the prize… when it’s really, they’re the problem. Their level is in hell, okay? That’s what your bar is for yourself. You as a person, you ain’t did no work on yourself… That woman had accountability. That woman said she know she the problem. How many of you ladies out there know you the problem?”

The keys to your dream home have been secured. Now comes time to fill it with memories. But first, furniture and movers. When's the housewarming? Who's cooking? Or should you cater? All that planning can be stressful, but ensuring your home shouldn't be. And that's where State Farm comes in. Because State Farm agents can help you choose the coverage you need. Just call, go online or check out the app. An agent is ready to help so you can focus on showing off your new home. If you know, you know, like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.

You know, we joke all the time on our show and it seems like we hate on each other, but in real life, it's all love here. And that's family. And that's why this message from the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate really, really matters. Because real hate isn't jokes. It's real people getting targeted. Like the kid who gets singled out at school in the commercial during the big game. But what stood out to me was someone choosing to show love instead of ignoring it. If you saw that Blue Square commercial, you know. And if you want to show support, sharing the Blue Square is one way you stand for love and not hate.

[State Farm Representative]

It's your time to nominate a donkey of your own.

[Charlamagne tha God]

Remember now, that is how they choose. Yes, call in that 800-585-1051. Listen Donkey of the Day for Friday, February 13th is the People's donkey. This is where we allow people to call in and give folks the credit they deserve for being stupid. And I'm letting you know right now, tomorrow is Valentine's Day. Now, historically, I've given people who don't got nobody donkey of the day, and that's not right, because there's various reasons that folks don't have anybody, okay? Honestly, some of y' all don't got nobody because some people ain't hitting on nothing, okay? There's just some terrible humans on this planet. All right? For example, there's a young man who walking around this office right now, okay? He's from Ghana. He works here on the Breakfast Club. And he is dressed like he's going to cheat after work because he knows tomorrow he got to be with his main sugar stain. So he probably told his mane he got to work late today. And I just want her to know that's a lie. It's Friday. None of us are working late, okay? There are people out here who just don't love themselves also, okay? And I just want you to know they could never truly love you. And today is your opportunity to give them the biggest he haw. So. Good morning.

[Charlamagne tha God]

NB texting right now saying, we did this last year. Well, guess what? We're gonna do it again this year, guys.
