They may be the donkey of the day by the things that I said, Charlemagne. Some donkey today is just starting to settle. It was you. What accountability are you taking? Caught me off guard. I'm not making. I may dunk you today. I'm the breakfast. That being said, I want to start off with this donkey right here. Clean up. Go ahead. Clean up on aisle 69. He do anything to be able to bend over in here, don't he? Oh, shut up. Listen, donkey of the day for Thursday, February 12, goes to an HGTV star named Nicole Curtis, okay? Nicole is the star of a show called Rehab Addict. But Rehab Addict has been canceled, okay? After Nicole Curtis used a racial slur while filming. Now, before I play you what Nicole Curtis said, I want you to know that she's 49 years old. She was born in 1976. Now, I was born in 1978, and I'm telling you right now, you get to a certain point in your life where you just say things, okay? I have no idea why I randomly just walk around blurting out things, okay? Sometimes it'd be random things. My mind concocts like Fraggle Maggot. I love calling people Fraggle Maggots, and I don't know why. Okay, well, I do know why, but that's not the point, okay, you filthy fraggle maggot. Also, I find myself randomly screaming out rap lyrics that I can't relate to. It took me at least a month to stop running around every moment screaming, I'm geeked up, looking for an eater. Nah, you can't relate. So I'm not copping. Please. Okay? For Nicole Curtis. Because we all have to deal with the consequences of our words, but the randomness of our words do get more random with age, and Nicole Curtis is proof of that. Would you like to hear what she had to say that got her HGTV show Rehab Addict canceled. Let's listen. Why? It's my last one. Oh, fart nigger. What the is that that I just said? Nick, you gotta. You gotta. Can you kill that? My life. Damn. I never heard that one. Nicole, Nicole, Nicole. Why would you say that? Say it again. Oh, fart. What is a fart, nigga? Is it an N word who likes to fart? Was she talking to herself? Was she gassy and it wouldn't come out, so she was trying to speak it into existence. I'm just trying to figure out why those two choice of words together. Now, I asked chatgpt. I said chat. I did. I had to ask. I said chat. What is a fart N word. I spelled it out, of course, and chat said, I'm gonna answer this neutrally and factually, not endorsing the language, just explaining how it is commonly used. I've never heard this phrase in my life, but according to Chad GPT, it's commonly used. Now, fart negra is slang, okay? Why is that? Turn that off. That's not me. I'm gonna get to that in a second. Now, fart nigger is slang, okay? Not a literal term. All right? This is what Chad GPT told me. Nigger is slang. Not a literal term. Is used jokingly or insultingly to mean a goofy, annoying, or clownish person. That's. I never knew this. It's a real definition somewhere. That's what Chat GPT told me when I asked it. Yeah, I just looked it up. It says, someone who's doing dumb stuff, talking nonsense, are acting unserious, basically a corny dude or bozo in a casual, joking way. It's often said playfully among friends, are mockingly online, especially in meme culture, group chats are trash talk. There's no real definition behind the vibe. It's more about the tone than meaning. This is what chatgpt told me now. Wow. I've never heard any of this in my life, okay? But when chat GPT tells me this, and then I watch the video, right? Because when you watch the video, I say to myself, wow, Nicole Curtis used the term fart N word in his proper context, okay? And I'm gonna be honest, just playing white devil's advocate here. I don't know if this is a racial slur the way she used it. Of course, the N word by itself is a rac. Racial slur. But when you put fart in front of it and there is no black people around you doing some rehab, you're doing something that makes you feel dumb while you are doing the rehab, and so you just randomly scream out fart. Let's hear it again. Oh, fart. I don't know if that's a cancelable offense. What? Let me tell you what I think should happen is she should be interrogated, okay? Because there's some secret white people meetings going on that we don't know about. Because how come Chat GPT knows that People are out here using the phrase fart N word, but we never heard about it ever, okay? If there are secret white people meetings happening with secret white language, we need to know about it. The same way they need to understand what Bad Bunny was saying, we need to understand what they are saying, okay? If they are using a colloquial slang that derives from the racial slur and putting ass gas in front of it, we need to know why. How did we get here? Okay, I remember white people saying things like, golly gee willikers, all right? Or when they're shocked about something, they say things like, well, God damn it, Bob, smack me on the ass and call me a Splenda. But if their slang has advanced to things like fart N word, we need to know they out here using the N word in ways we can't even imagine, okay? We've heard, you know, bitch ass, N word. You know what I mean? We heard the F word in front of the N word. But in all my days, okay, in all my days, I've never heard anybody put fart in front of the N word. And fart in front of the N word is like lemon pepper on some chicken wings. It gives it a different type of flavor, okay? But F all that, all right? There's no excuses. If you white saying the N word in any context, it will never end well, okay? When will white people stop making rookie mistakes consciously, subconsciously, under the influence, sober? It don't matter. Don't say the N word in any context. Please give Nicole Curtis the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. I'mma tell you something else, man. Certain words in front of the N word, man. Takes the sting off it. Because I've seen a lot of bald head white guys walking around singing bald all over social media, and ain't nobody say nothing to them. I ain't hear about nobody getting called to being canceled. And they on there going crazy. The ball, they wild. You know what I'm saying? I see a lot of white people losing money. Oh, you want to do fart? Fart, fart. I ain't got no Febreze in here. Boy, you smell like rotten eggs. Boy, you smell like skunk legs. That girl fought this tenderism. Boy, they falling out her ass. Yeah, she got unleaded gas. Go, Charlotte. Go, go, go. I'm really crazy because I did not know, like the definition said. This word has a long history of being used dehumanize and harm black people. I've never heard of It. No, that's the regular. That's the N word. Dummy. No. What the hell is you talking about? I put it in chat. GPT. What is for? And that's what it came up with. Was that. Was that before or after Rosa park sat at the back of the bus? Exactly. That sound like he's just explaining the one word to you that ain't got. Yo, it was so crazy. Your phone is gentrified. Your phone is very gentrified. It didn't even tap in with the ancestors the right way. Oh, my goodness. All right, all right. Well, thank you for that, Don K. Today. Yes, ma'. Am.

Episode: DONKEY: HGTV Cancels ‘Rehab Addict’ After Host Nicole Curtis Uses Racial Slur ‘Fart N***er’
Date: February 12, 2026
This episode centers on the “Donkey of the Day” segment, in which Charlamagne Tha God addresses HGTV’s decision to cancel ‘Rehab Addict’ after host Nicole Curtis was caught using the racial slur “fart n***er” on camera. The hosts unpack the incident, reflect on the bizarre use of language, explore its cultural implications, and inject their brand of humor and commentary throughout.
“Donkey of the day for Thursday, February 12, goes to an HGTV star named Nicole Curtis, okay? Nicole is the star of a show called Rehab Addict. But Rehab Addict has been canceled, okay? After Nicole Curtis used a racial slur while filming.” — Charlamagne, 04:37
“Why? It’s my last one. Oh, fart n***er. What the is that that I just said?” — Nicole Curtis clip, 06:20
“Damn. I never heard that one. Nicole, Nicole, Nicole. Why would you say that?” — Charlamagne, 06:27
“Was she talking to herself? Was she gassy and it wouldn't come out, so she was trying to speak it into existence?" — Charlamagne, 06:45
“Now, fart n***er is slang… not a literal term. This is what Chat GPT told me. It’s often said playfully among friends or mockingly online, especially in meme culture, group chats, or trash talk.” — Charlamagne, quoting ChatGPT, 08:49
“If there are secret white people meetings happening with secret white language, we need to know about it… We need to understand what they are saying.” — Charlamagne, 10:30
“I don’t know if this is a racial slur the way she used it… but F all that, all right? There’s no excuses. If you’re white saying the N word in any context, it will never end well.” — Charlamagne, 11:40
“When will white people stop making rookie mistakes? Consciously, subconsciously, under the influence, sober — it don’t matter. Don’t say the N word in any context.” — Charlamagne, 12:11
“And fart in front of the N word is like lemon pepper on some chicken wings. It gives it a different type of flavor, okay?” — Charlamagne, 13:20
"Your phone is gentrified. Your phone is very gentrified. It didn’t even tap in with the ancestors the right way.” — Jess Hilarious, joking about ChatGPT’s answer, 15:42
The episode embodies The Breakfast Club’s signature mix of blunt honesty, cultural commentary, and irreverent humor. The hosts oscillate between serious discussion about racial slurs and comedic riffs, keeping the conversation engaging but clear on the takeaway: language—especially involving the N-word—has consequences, and white people must avoid it entirely, regardless of context or slang evolutions.
This episode’s “Donkey of the Day” is a focused, energetic dissection of Nicole Curtis’ “fart n***er” gaffe, regime of racial boundaries in language, and how online slang tangles with real-world repercussions. The hosts demystify the viral phrase and reflect on the persistent double standards, ultimately reinforcing that intent and context are irrelevant: some words don’t belong in everyone’s mouth—period. Their mix of humor and gravity makes the lesson land all the more firmly.
