Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Crime and Charges ([05:05]–[06:59])

• Details of the Incident:
  • Amber Snow, 36, was arrested in Decorah, Iowa after allegedly lacing a tray of lasagna with oxycodone and giving it to a pregnant family member in December, hoping to induce a miscarriage.
  • Charges include two counts each of administering harmful substances to an adult and a juvenile, one count of attempted non-consensual termination of a pregnancy, and controlled substance violation – all felonies.
• Charlamagne’s Commentary:
  • He highlights the severity and uniqueness of the charges, noting that “none of them rang a bell until I got to the non-consensual termination of a pregnancy part.” ([05:39])
  • Jokingly references antiquated, violent ideas about forced miscarriages: “Back in my day, they used to say kick a pregnant woman down the stairs.” ([05:54])
• News Report Recap: ([06:23])
  • News audio restates the facts and current legal proceedings, confirming the ongoing investigation and Snow’s $100,000 bond.

2. Analyzing Amber Snow’s Plot ([06:59]–[09:00])

• Questions the Logic:

  • “First of all, why lasagna? … Why didn’t she try like a suspicious shepherd’s pie or a passive aggressive peach cobbler? This whole plot sounds like something from a dark sitcom or a bad true crime podcast.” ([06:59])
  • Points out the unreliability of the plan: “Your family member would have to actually eat the lasagna … The drug would actually somehow have to cause the miscarriage. That’s an extremely unreliable chain of events.” ([07:27])
  • Notes oxycodone isn’t an abortion drug but a painkiller, so the likelihood of the intended outcome was low.

• Historical Context and Dark Humor:

  • References ancient methods and myths: “There’s this thing called pennyroyal … a type of mint, but it’s a very successful abortion drug … deeply poisonous.” ([08:04])
  • Recalls Hippocrates-era advice: “Jump up and down touching your buttocks with your heels … until the embryo became loose and fell out.” ([08:36])
  • “Not trying to give anyone ideas, okay? This woman, Amber Snow, was evil.” ([08:59])

3. Motivation and Moral Reflection ([08:59]–[10:13])

• Hate-Fueled Actions:

  • Charlamagne emphasizes Amber's malice: “Amber’s a hater. And she was doing this to her family member. … She’s the type of hater that actually wants to do harm to you.” ([09:37])
  • Summarizes with a lesson on toxic behavior: “When people are full of hate, they will try to poison anything good in someone else’s life. And guess what? When you try to sabotage somebody else’s life, you end up sabotaging your own.” ([09:45])

• Food Safety Warning:

  • Comically warns: “This is why you don’t let everyone cook for you, okay? You can’t eat from everyone’s kitchen.” ([09:23])

• Signature Outro:

  • “Please give Amber Snow the biggest Hee Haw. Jesus.” ([10:11])

4. “Guess What Race It Is?” Segment ([10:13]–[11:36])

• DJ Envy immediately guesses Amber is white (“Because her last name’s Snow … Chrissy Snow from Three’s Company”). ([10:40])
• Danielle Fishel (guest) also responds “Caucasian.” ([11:07])
• Charlamagne confirms: “Big Caucasian. … Meth for breakfast, maybe a little crack for lunch.” ([11:25])
• Joking about stereotypical behaviors and demographics adds a satirical, pop culture flavor.
• Additional banter about living “behind the Dollar General” and “she had oxycodone in her back pocket” drives home the hosts’ comically cynical social commentary. ([11:29])

5. Transitions & Humor ([11:40]–[12:13])

• Charlamagne shifts to promoting Jess Hilarious’s upcoming book and continues with playful banter on her style and TV references.

was born a donkey.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

It's the donkey of the day. Look at these donkeys. Donkeys. Bunch of jackasses for the donkey of the day. That's pretty funny. Charlemagne, the devil, The Breakfast Club. Yes, Donkey today for Thursday, March 11, goes to a 36 year old Iowa woman named Amber Snow. Amber was taken into custody this week and charged with two counts each of administering harmful substances to an adult and administering harmful substances to a juvenile, as well as one count each of attempted non consensual termination of a pregnancy and controlled substance violation, all of which are felonies. Now, I was born in 1978, okay? I am 47. I've seen a lot, but I've never heard of these charges. None of them rang a bell until I got to the non consensual termination of a pregnancy part. And I said to myself, myself, oh, she tried to kick a pregnant woman down the stairs. See, that's what people used to say back in my day when they didn't want the woman to keep the baby. Okay, kick a pregnant woman down the stairs and hopes that the trauma to the abdomen during pregnancy can lead to a miscarriage. Yes, sadly, there are people out there who think and do things like that, and Amber Snow was one of them. Would you like to hear why Amber Snow is getting donkey of the day today? Well, let's go to News 19 for the report, please.

[News Reporter]

A woman has been charged in Decorah, Iowa for allegedly tainting a lasagna with oxycodone in an effort to force a miscarriage. Amber Snow was arrested and charged earlier today with charges that included felony counts of delivering a controlled substance and administering a harmful substance to an adult as well as a juvenile. According to the Winnesheek County Sheriff's Office, Snow tainted the lasagna with oxycodone in December and then gave it to another family member. Officials say that the case is still being investigated and additional charges and arrests are imminent. Snow is being held currently on a $100,000 cash bond.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

She delivered a drug laced tray of lasagna to a pregnant family member to cause a miscarriage. Okay. Spiked it with oxycodone, hoping it would cause a miscarriage. First of all, why lasagna? Okay, I love a good lasagna, but I'm lactose intolerant and the cheese gives me dairy bumps, so the cheese is tricky. Okay, why didn't she try like a. A suspicious shepherd's pie or a passive aggressive peach cobbler? Okay, this whole plot sounds like Something from a dark sitcom or a bad true crime podcast, and it honestly wasn't that good. Okay? This plan depends on a lot of unlikely things happening in order for this to work. For example, your family member. Family member would have to actually eat the lasagna, okay? She would have to eat the drug lace portion. Nobody else in the house is going to notice or question the food. God forbid someone else in the house was hungry. And the drug would actually somehow have to cause the miscarriage. Okay, that's an extremely unreliable chain of events, all right? Trust me when I tell you, someone from the 1900s is thinking to themselves, kicking it down the steps would be way more effective. Also, oxycodone isn't a typical miscarriage drug. It's a painkiller, okay? Not something used to induce miscarriages. So the idea that it would reliably cause pregnancy termination is very questionable. Okay, I'm not trying to give anybody any ideas, but, you know, there's this thing called penny royalty. You know how I found out about penny royalty? Because I once read a Huffington post article titled 9 Ancient Abortion methods so terrible you'll be even more grateful for the right to choose. And Pennyroyal is actually a type of mint, but it's a very successful abortion drug, okay? It was so deeply poisonous, in fact, that just 5 grams of it could be toxic. All right? Then there was the jumping and kicking yourself in the ass method. Y' all don't want to hear about that. No, no, I'll tell you anyway. Hippocrates was a famous Greek physician who was heavily against abortion. But he recommended a technique that actually became popular when folks wanted to control alt. Delete the baby. He would tell them to jump up and down, touching their buttocks with their heels, you know, at every leap. And apparently they would do that until the embryo became loose and fell out. See, if you did that, you would have to pretend to be her personal trainer. That's the only way you would get her to participate in such an exercise. But I' here to give anyone out there any ideas, okay? This woman, Amber Snow, was evil, all right? She did Internet searches and electronic communications discussing the plan. How the hell are you sharing recipes for a miscarriage? Okay, what in the fetus killing Food Network is going on here? You plotting on killing someone's unborn child through lasagna recipes. Let me tell you something, man. This is why you don't let everyone cook for you, okay? You can't eat from everyone's kitchen. And Amber. Amber's a hater. Okay. And she was doing this to her family member. And Amber's the worst kind of hater. She's the type of hater that actually wants to do harm to you. It's the type of hater that'll kill you if they want to kill your unborn child. And when people are full of hate, they will try to poison anything good in someone else's life. And guess what? When you try to sabotage somebody else's life, you end up sabotaging your own. Please give Amber Snow the biggest Hee haw. Jesus.

This is Chelsea Handler from Dear Chelsea. After the Big Game like most people, I kept thinking about the commercials, and there was one that stayed with me. It was from the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate, and it wasn't loud or flashy. It showed a Jewish kid being targeted at school and another student who chose not to ignore it. As someone who was Jewish, that moment felt very real to me. Not dramatic, just familiar. And what struck me was how clearly it showed that hate doesn't always announce itself, but the impact is still huge. If you saw the Blue Square spot during the Big Game, it's worth thinking about. And if you want to show support, sharing the Blue Square is one small way to do that.
