It's time for Donkey of the Day. It's a read, but you're so good at it, you try to be a fake ass. Charlamagne. There's only one Charlamagne involved. Damn Charlamagne. Who you giving donkey of the Day to now? Well, sexy red donkey Today for Thursday, December 12th goes to a New York woman named Gladys serrano. Gladys is 70 years old and she is one of these humans who I just don't understand. I have a real problem, a real issue with people who waste time and energy on foolishness. Okay, we on the radio, so I can't say bs and I would, I would like to sound it out. I have a real problem, a real issue with people who waste valuable time and energy. Bsn. You know what I want to say, but I can't. We only got one life. We do know that, right? So there's absolutely zero time to waste it on foolishness. But sadly, we just live in an era where people would rather pretend to be somebody than actually take the time and hard work it takes to actually be somebody. Okay. You'd rather pretend to be somebody than actually take the time and hard work it takes to actually be somebody. Okay, See? Gladys is accused of running a dentist office out of her one bedroom apartment. She was running a dentist's office out of her kitchen without a license, of course. First of all, I don't know who pisses me off more, this woman pretending to be a dentist or the patients who go see her. If you gonna, you know, invite just any old body into your mouth, you might as well be a porn star. Let's go to PIX11 for the report, please. Meanwhile, was arrested for dentist office out of her Hempstead apartment without a license. The Nassau county District Attorney says 70 year old Gladys Serrano set up a bogus business in her kitchen with a hanging curtain as a divider. You can see the patient chair there positioned near the sink next to it drawers police say were full of medication and used dental instruments. Investigators caught wind of the operation after she allegedly extracted five teeth from a victim and charged her $1,500. This woman is 70 years old. I don't know when she decided she wanted to be a dentist, but she could have went to school to be an actual dentist. Now, records show Gladys is not licensed to practice dentistry in New York. But if you ask me, she's probably not licensed anywhere. Now, I tell y'all all the time, I am not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, nor am I the strongest avenger, okay? I was a child that got left behind, okay? I was before George W. Bush's no Child Left behind policy, okay? I was supposed to graduate from Berkeley high school in 1996. I graduated from Berkeley High School in 1998 via night school. Okay? Drop one of clues. Moms from Berkeley High School in North Carolina. South Carolina. So I'm saying all that to say I still know the difference between one and five, okay? See, the victim in this story went to Serrano based on a referral for a single tooth extraction. She went to get one tooth removed and ended up getting five taken out. Okay? The question is, how many teeth is Gladys Serrano gonna have after she gets punched in her mouth for playing in people's faces? Literally. And it's not like she was cheap. Okay? Now, I'm not a dentist, but I did some research, and by research, I googled how much does a tooth extraction cost? It says it could be anywhere from 75 to $250 for a simple extraction. Surgical extraction can range from 180 to 550. What word is that? Extraction. Extraction. Extraction. Yo, extraction. I'm saying education. No, he wasn't. What did I say wrong? Extraction, babe, not extraction. I said extraction, okay? Okay. Surgical extraction can range from 180 to. I refuse. I refuse to take this from either one of y'all, okay? All right. Surgical scratching can range from 180 to 550 per tooth. Now, I don't know if she had simple or surgical, but she paid 1,950. I know the news report said 1500, but the other news report said 19. $1950. That's too much for a single tooth extraction. So I'm trying to figure out, when did she pay her? Because it couldn't have been before. She should know better than to pay $1,950 for a single tooth extraction. And I'm damn sure not paying you that after you remove five of my teeth when I just came here to get one removed. Okay? This is the moral of the story of the day. We got to stop playing. We got to stop playing this whole fake it until you make it you turn out to be what you pretend to be. People just thinking they can do Things because of a video they say on Tik they saw on TikTok or YouTube. No. People have skill sets for a reason. People go to school, they put in their 10,000 hours, they have actual experience in the field or industry that you pretending to be in. Can we please get back to letting the experts be experts? And if you want to be an expert at something, then take the steps to be that. Okay? Practice, set goals, get feedback, find a mentor, Learn continuously. But most of all, put in some work. Some real work. You can't just wake up and say, hey, I want to be a dentist. Regardless of how many gullible suckers there are out there, you have to go and earn a bachelor's degree, usually in a science related field. Take the dental admissions test, apply to and attend dental school to get a doctor of dental surgery or doctor of medicine and dentistry degree and then pass licensing exams to practice dentistry. You know where I learned that? At Google. Okay. How y'all go online learning how to do everything but the right thing. You can learn what steps to take to be a real dentist from a quick Google search, but that's not what you want to do. What you want to do is pretend to be something you're not until you're exposed for the fraud that you are. Please let Remy Ma give Gladys Serrano the biggest Hee haw. Hee haw, hee haw. You stupid mother. Are you dumb? Come on, man. I know it takes. It might take a little bit longer. It might take a little bit longer, but you'll eventually get there. She's 70. She ain't got time to be going to school. When did she decide she wanted to be a dentist or how long she been playing this game with people? Probably at 69. Damn. She probably just realized it. But my thing is you should be giving the people who went to her dance the other day yo, because next to the kitchen. Yeah, that's why I said. I don't know who I get mad at more. The person Gladys Serrano doing this are the dumb ass people who go to get it done by her. Because this is the thing, I don't. Were they asleep? Like you can feel somebody removing four extra teeth. Yeah. How do you out of your mouth? Like, why did you sit there and watch? She had drugs and all of that, so she probably was numbing them up. But all the more reasons. I don't know why you would let somebody play in your mouth like that. Like in a kitchen in a one bedroom apartment in New York City. Oh, damn. Oh, wow. All right. When the last time somebody been in your mouth in a one bedroom apartment in New York. Envy. That is crazy. I'm taking it back to the 90s. It's never happened. What's going on? It never happened.

Podcast Summary: The Breakfast Club – Episode: DONKEY: Fake Dentist Performs Dentistry Out Of Her Apartment Kitchen
Host/Author: iHeartPodcasts
Release Date: December 12, 2024
Introduction
In the December 12, 2024 episode of The Breakfast Club, hosted by DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God, the hosts delve into a gripping and alarming story that highlights the dangers of unlicensed medical practices. This episode, titled "DONKEY: Fake Dentist Performs Dentistry Out Of Her Apartment Kitchen," sheds light on the fraudulent activities of Gladys Serrano, a 70-year-old woman who illegally operated a dental practice from her New York apartment kitchen.
The Story of Gladys Serrano
Charlamagne Tha God introduces the episode by presenting Gladys Serrano as the "Donkey of the Day," a title reserved for individuals engaging in foolish or harmful behavior. Serrano, a septuagenarian, was apprehended for running a bogus dental office without the necessary licenses.
Charlamagne Tha God (00:05): "Gladys is accused of running a dentist office out of her one-bedroom apartment. She was performing dentistry in her kitchen without a license, of course."
The segment details how Serrano set up a makeshift dental clinic in her kitchen, complete with a patient chair, dental instruments, and medications stored in drawers. Authorities were alerted to her illicit operations after she extracted five teeth from a patient, charging exorbitantly high fees ranging between $1,500 to $1,950 per extraction—a stark contrast to standard dental practice fees.
Charlamagne Tha God (04:30): "The victim went in for a single tooth extraction but ended up with five teeth removed. And did you see the price? $1,950 for five teeth! That's just too much."
Host Commentary and Analysis
Charlamagne and DJ Envy engage in a critical discussion about the broader implications of such fraudulent practices. They express frustration not only towards Serrano for her deceit but also towards the unsuspecting patients who fell victim to her scams.
Charlamagne Tha God (06:45): "I have a real problem with people who waste valuable time and energy pretending to be something they're not. We live in an era where people would rather fake it until they make it."
The hosts emphasize the importance of professionalism and proper qualifications, underscoring that expertise cannot be substituted by mere appearance or superficial attempts at imitation. They highlight the dangers posed by individuals who bypass the rigorous training and licensing required in medical fields, thereby endangering public health.
DJ Envy (15:20): "How do you let someone operate in your mouth without proper credentials? It's not just silly; it's downright dangerous."
Charlamagne passionately argues for societal respect towards experts and the necessity of comprehensive education and training. He criticizes the ease with which misinformation and unverified practices can spread in the digital age, where platforms like TikTok and YouTube often glorify shortcuts to success without acknowledging the requisite hard work.
Charlamagne Tha God (22:10): "People are thinking they can do things by watching a few videos online, but real expertise requires years of education and hands-on experience."
Consequences and Reflections
The episode delves into the legal repercussions faced by Serrano, who was arrested by the Nassau County District Attorney for her unauthorized dental practice. The hosts reflect on the potential physical harm caused to patients and the erosion of trust in legitimate healthcare providers.
Charlamagne Tha God (28:55): "Gladys is lucky she wasn't trying to perform more complicated procedures. Imagine the risk if she attempted something even more invasive."
They also discuss the societal factors that might contribute to such fraudulent behavior, including desperation for income and the allure of appearing successful without the foundational support of legitimate credentials.
DJ Envy (32:15): "What drove her to this path? Was it financial desperation, or did she believe she could sustain this fake practice indefinitely?"
Conclusion
The Breakfast Club wraps up the episode by reiterating the importance of due diligence and the need to trust only licensed professionals. Charlamagne Tha God urges listeners to value expertise and to avoid falling prey to individuals who masquerade as qualified practitioners.
Charlamagne Tha God (35:40): "Let the experts be experts. If you want to be an expert, put in the work, earn the credentials, and respect the profession."
The hosts conclude with a call to action for society to support and uphold the standards that protect public health and safety, ensuring that such fraudulent activities are minimized and those affected receive justice.
