But, yes, we do that every Friday.
Radio Show Host or Commentator
Thanks, Charlemagne. Now let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Now, this conversation comes from Young Miami and Aisha Diaz, and both of them saying, you know, Young Miami says she wants somebody with a net worth of $100 million. Aisha says that somebody should make at least 45 to $50,000 a month to make sure she's okay.
Caller (various names: Big Ruger, L'Oreal, Blake, Hernan)
What do you expect on a monthly basis from financially.
Amanda Knox
From him?
Charlemagne Tha God
Yeah.
Podcast Host or Commentator
Honestly, I'm spoiled.
Charlemagne Tha God
What?
Radio Show Host or Commentator
What is.
Caller (various names: Big Ruger, L'Oreal, Blake, Hernan)
You say you're spoiled? What does that mean?
Podcast Host or Commentator
Spoiler means I need you to be able to keep up with my lifestyle if you want to be with me.
Caller (various names: Big Ruger, L'Oreal, Blake, Hernan)
What does that mean financially? What does that mean, though? What does that mean? What does that mean on a monthly. What's that mean?
Podcast Host or Commentator
Numbers.
Charlemagne Tha God
Yes.
Caller (various names: Big Ruger, L'Oreal, Blake, Hernan)
Yeah.
Podcast Host or Commentator
45, 50. $50,000.
Caller (various names: Big Ruger, L'Oreal, Blake, Hernan)
So you need $50,000 a month.
Podcast Host or Commentator
So the question.
Radio Show Host or Commentator
800-585-1051. What was the question? What did you say?
Radio Show Guest or Caller
I basically was saying it. I piggyback off of what you said. Yo, they basically dating off of financial status. You know what I'm saying? That ain't even a way. That's not one. That's not a way to find love.
Charlemagne Tha God
To.
Radio Show Guest or Caller
What do you bring the table? What do you bring to the table? And I know that's cliche, too, because that's, like, the topic of all podcasts when it comes to relationships and love and stuff. But, like, what do you do? What can you buy? What. What are you gonna buy? What are your expenses that I have to be able to. So wait, if she's $50,000 a month to take care of you. I'm not even talking about young Miami because she is even in a different status. Then it's Aisha girl, because she's her own rapper celebrity. Just was dating Diddy, so I understand her.
Radio Show Host or Commentator
But do you expect to find love when what you're looking for is finances?
Radio Show Guest or Caller
No, that's the question.
Radio Show Host or Commentator
Do you expect to find love when you. When somebody has to have $100 million as a network, when they have to make up to 50, that means you
Radio Show Guest or Caller
don't even love me for me. It don't. I could be ugly I could be I could be I it don't matter as long as I got this bread. We good.
Podcast Host or Commentator
Some people live like that though.
Radio Show Guest or Caller
That's weird. Some people would rather have a lifestyle than love. But they don't last though that and
Radio Show Host or Commentator
that's the thing, they don't last. 8 what are your thoughts? Let's discuss this. The Breakfast Club Good morning dog.

This "Donkey of the Day" episode is a special People's Donkey segment, where listeners call in to nominate individuals or groups deserving of ridicule for questionable actions. The highlight of the show is a caller nominating Nicki Minaj as "Donkey of the Year," sparking a discussion about selective activism and celebrity responsibility. The episode also features debates about work ethics, gender dynamics in leadership, and modern relationship expectations.
"They're trying to charge us our PTO for the snowstorm... I don't want to put my PTO on something I can't control."
(04:01–04:17, Caller Big Ruger)
"Men have been running this country for years, for decades, and look at the state that this country is in. Do he really think a woman is going to do any worse?"
(05:25–05:41, Caller L'Oreal)
"There's plenty of women that can run this country better than these old white men have because you see the situation that they got in right now."
(05:41–05:52, Charlamagne Tha God)
"For the bootleg that she's been doing... when the post was made about Obama, she said absolutely nothing. But when she thought Gavin Newsom was talking to a predominantly Black audience, she jumped out the window like she's all for the people."
(06:09–06:30, Blake)
"Picking and choosing. Selective politicking. You right."
(06:30–06:33, Charlamagne Tha God)
"You guys got me through my prison bed... just to wake up and listen to you guys radio show, man."
(07:30–07:41, Hernan)
Charlamagne: "Don't just be saying trafficking nowadays... because of Epstein and Diddy and everything else, you gotta be clear."
(07:53–08:04, Charlamagne Tha God)
"Spoiled means I need you to be able to keep up with my lifestyle if you want to be with me."
(09:42–09:47, Unattributed Female Guest)
"Do you expect to find love when what you're looking for is finances?... that means you don’t even love me for me."
(10:46–10:52, Co-Host)
"Some people would rather have a lifestyle than love. But they don’t last though and that’s the thing, they don't last."

On Nicki Minaj:
"I want to give dunk at a year to Nicki Minaj... for the bootleg that she's been doing... and selective politicking."
(06:09–06:33, Caller Blake)
On gender and leadership:
"Men have been running this country for years, for decades, and look at the state that this country is in. Do he really think a woman is going to do any worse?"
(05:25–05:41, L'Oreal)
On post-prison gratitude:
"You guys got me through my prison bed... I was looking forward every day to waking up at early in the morning, 5:30 just to wake up and listen to you guys radio show, man."
(07:30–07:41, Hernan)
| Timestamp | Segment / Topic | |-----------|--------------------------------------------------------------| | 03:29 | People's Donkey segment begins | | 03:45 | "Big Ruger" on PTO policies and work frustrations | | 05:18 | "L'Oreal" on sexist comments about women in leadership | | 05:58 | "Blake" nominates Nicki Minaj for Donkey of the Year | | 06:39 | "Hernan" on lazy coworkers and gratitude after prison | | 09:13 | Discussion shifts to modern relationship financial demands |
The conversation is lively, candid, and humorous—typical of "The Breakfast Club" and Charlamagne's hosting style. Listeners are encouraged to call out questionable behavior, and the hosts freely share their own opinions while keeping the energy fun and relatable.
This episode stands out for putting the "Donkey of the Day" power directly into the hands of the listeners. Key moments include the heated nomination of Nicki Minaj for "Donkey of the Year," reflections on work culture, gender in leadership, and a spirited debate on whether love or luxury should drive relationship standards. The mix of humor, sincerity, and real talk makes it engaging for fans and newcomers alike.
