Marlon Wayans will be joining us this morning. Marlon Wayans has a new movie coming out this Friday. It's actually a Jordan Peele film called Him. It is a sports horror movie. So he'll be joining us to talk to. Talk to us about that. And who knows, man? I don't know what Lauren got planned for the latest, man, we just gonna have an amazing show. Tesla and Figaro will be up next with Front Page News, which will be about 30 seconds. So what's the song we're about to play? Rhett about to play Chris Brown. Play Chris Brown for 30 seconds and then we're gonna come back and talk to Tess. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club. And it's time for Front Page News.
Tesla Figaro
Good morning, Charlamagne. I'm glad to join you in the coffin this morning.
Charlamagne Tha God
This is the black mother ever get it effed up. Okay. Black mothership. Good morning, Tesla, Figaro, how are you? Good.
Tesla Figaro
Good morning. I'm doing well. Charlemagne, the God. Let me get straight into it. I know we need to talk about a lot. Well, yesterday, Tyler Robinson, the main. The man accused of murdering Charlie Kirk, appeared briefly before a judge by video from jail. Let's take a listen to the formal charges.
Lauren LaRosa
Tyler Robinson is charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm, two counts of obstruction of justice, two counts of.
Morgan Wood
Witness tampering, and committing a crime in.
Lauren LaRosa
The presence of a child.
Morgan Wood
Authorities say their evidence includes text messages.
Lauren LaRosa
Between Robinson and his roommate.
Charlamagne Tha God
Roommate? You weren't the one who did it, right, Robinson? I am. I am. I'm sorry. Roommate. Why, Robinson? Why did I do it? Roommate. Yeah, Robinson. I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can't be negotiated out.
Tesla Figaro
Now, the FBI said that Robinson used the chat app Discord to tell at least 20 friends that he shot Kirk. So the FBI is questioning those individuals. And speaking of questioning, Charlemagne, Democrats brought FBI Director Cash Patel before Congress yesterday to question him about his inconsistencies during the investigation. And Senator Cory Booker basically reminded Patel that he too might be fired. Let's listen to what he had to.
Charlamagne Tha God
Say, Donald Trump has shown us in.
Marlon Wayans
His first term and in this term he is not loyal to people like you. He will cut you loose.
Charlamagne Tha God
This may be the last time I have a hearing with you because I.
Marlon Wayans
Don'T think you're long.
Charlamagne Tha God
What they mad about? What they mad at Cash Patel about? Like, what was that?
Tesla Figaro
Yeah, well, they mad at him because he had the inconsistencies. Remember, he said, first we got the guy, you know, we got him in custody. And then he went back and said they didn't have him in custody. And then today, to bring you more of that tomorrow, today, they're going to get into asking more questions about the Epstein file. So they're going to ask them a ton of different things. It's not just focus on Charlie Kirk. It's Epstein files. It's Charlie Kirk. Also, the resources they. They've been diverting to, you know, a lot of the. The ice. You know, ice, ice.
Charlamagne Tha God
And.
Tesla Figaro
And a lot of stuff that they're spending on that. So they're going to question on a number of different things. And so we'll be talking about that if we got a couple seconds. I do want to talk about a couple things. Charlemagne. That we did not know about Tyler Robinson. His DNA was found on the trigger of the rifle. The prosecutor said that he wrote in a text that he spent more than a week on planning to kill Kirk. Prosecutors also said that he has not revealed a clear motive at this time. So they still have not landed on a motive. But again, like you heard in the clip, they said he's had enough of his hate.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'll tell you one thing else about Tyler. Tyler Robinson. Tyler, I don't care what they tell you. You ain't got no rights.
Lauren LaRosa
Okay?
Charlamagne Tha God
Everything they telling you in court right now about right to counsel and right to remain silent and write to a public and speedy jury trial. No, no, no. They already picked and choose what they're gonna do to you. You fried, bro.
Tesla Figaro
Yeah. It's gonna be interesting to see all 20 people that will see if they'll be, you know, getting in and cooperating with the FBI as well. So. But at seven o', clock, I want to tell you about the LA Police Department. They released a report on how many projectiles were fired during. And I want to tell you about the youngest neuroscience student in history. So I see you at seven.
Charlamagne Tha God

The Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
Wake up.
Lauren LaRosa

Marlon Wayans
This is your time to get it off your ch. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
Good morning. Who's this?
Caller/Listener
What's going on? So I made this jimmy for the bx.
Charlamagne Tha God
What up, Jimmy from the bx. Get it off your chest. You know, all the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. You do know that, right?
Caller/Listener
That's right. I got some family in Florida. Hector, Jennifer, Zary.
Charlamagne Tha God
Lord have mercy.
Caller/Listener
Okay, I just want to say, hey, look, I want to give you a shout out yesterday for the interview with Dan. You held your own. You're respectable. And I think Damon is just wreaking a desperation damn. He's trying to stay, you know, reveling like, yo, my man is over. You say you don't talk about jbc bringing up Jay's name is interviews. And I just, you know, then he tried to come at LL Kube because I see her little Bronco reporter saying that. We both said that. He's not a chairman, bro.
Lauren LaRosa
They was on my body yesterday.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, they was. But, you know.
Caller/Listener
You know, your little journalism, they finally was in tmz, and I'm, you know, I'm gonna go with you. You say he's not the chairman, then, you know, I believe that.
Lauren LaRosa
No, thank you.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, I mean, revolt said he's not the chairman, but we'll get into that during the latest. Thank you for calling my brother.
Lauren LaRosa
We said it first, though.
Caller/Listener
Dr. Lenore.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, sir. Peace. King, listen.
Caller/Listener
What's going on?
Charlamagne Tha God
Good morning. Good morning. Get it off your chest, brother.
Caller/Listener
I see this chaos. Come on with King Death. Do want to chime in on that, to be honest. Dame didn't have to deliver it like that. But you guys are on a platform where you deliver a lot of information to affect a lot of people. And I just hope, moving forward that you guys could just continue to just educate people on the things that we need to be educated about.
Charlamagne Tha God
I think we do both, and I think we do a fantastic job of doing both. And I've always told y' all with a perfect balance of righteousness and ratchet, you know, because last week alone, you had diverse voices like Medi Hassan. You had Ben Shapiro, you had Jasmine Crockett. But no, nobody Even though those numbers. Even though those do do numbers, nobody ever calls up here. And y' all don't have the reaction y' all do to the mess like Dame Dash yesterday. So who fault is that? Good morning. Who's this?
Caller/Listener
Yo, good morning, Charlamagne. It's Austin from Illinois. Man, I just want to talk about that damn Dash interview yesterday.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, sir. Go ahead, brother.
Caller/Listener
So the situation. I had a lot of respect for Dane, but that kind of threw me off yesterday and how you were trying to, like, talk about you running from that fight and all that. And I believe, like, refusing everybody of a quote, refusing to fight doesn't mean you're afraid when there's no reason to fight. The only way to win is to stand down. And you did the right thing. You got out that situation and you protected yourself to see the next day. So I respect you and I respect him, bro. So he came to y'. All. Y' all didn't come to help.
Charlamagne Tha God
So I appreciate it, brother. Yes, sir. Thank you, man. Thank you for calling. Get it off your chest. 1-800-585-1051. Those aren't bots, by the way. Those are real voices. Just want you to know that. So hit us up right now if you want to get something off your chest or if you want to tell us why you're blessed or if you just want to tell us why you're upset, you can do that, too. It's the Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans
The Breakfast Club. Hey, what you doing, man?

Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, what you on? You want an edible or something?
Caller/Listener
A little bit of both.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay. Okay.
Caller/Listener
I don't discriminate. Okay. I want to get off my chest this Damon Dash. Let's start with Damon Dash. Y' all put up with too much of his stupidity. I've never liked Damon Dash. He has not been relevant since Aaliyah has passed away. Damon Dash needs to stay in his lane because I make more than him as a construction worker.
Charlamagne Tha God
Salute to all the construction workers out there. Y' all do get paid. Y' all make a lot of money. I mean, the world does not even move without y'. All. You hear me? Every single day, there's some construction going on in the company, in the world.
Caller/Listener
Appreciate you putting some respect on my profession, but let's get on. I want to really get off my chest this Kirstland died and got killed. I do not promote somebody being murdered. But that was karma knocking on that man's door. You can't hate. Think. Ain't nothing gonna happen. These Trump supporters flying these flags half mask because of this man that got killed. That was his own doing. If he would shut his mouth and stay in his lane and know that this country was built off the back of slaves and immigrants. I'm tired. I'm tired of these stupid Republicans. I'm tired of it because they think they look at us. I had a white person tell me yesterday I need to stay in my lane. I don't belong here.
Charlamagne Tha God
Belong where? Like, as far as America.
Caller/Listener
I live in Taylor, Michigan.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay.
Caller/Listener
I had a white person tell me yesterday. Yes. Had a white person tell me that I don't belong here.
Charlamagne Tha God
Damn. What'd you say about it?
Caller/Listener
I need to stay in my leg. I told him. I said his mama should have swallowed him.
Charlamagne Tha God
God damn.
Caller/Listener
You know, I do not promote hate. I do not promote racism. I don't promote none of it. And I will put somebody in their place when they are wrong. And all these Trump supporters need to know their days are going to end. They need to stay in their lane and know these Democrats ain't playing with them.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, I think the Democrats are definitely playing for them, playing with them. I don't think the Democrats, you know, have the regime to fight any of this stuff that's going on. But I appreciate you standing up for yourself. Get it off your chest. 1-800-585-1051. We do that every morning now. LL Cool Bay.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes, good morning.
Charlamagne Tha God
Lauren LaRosa.
Lauren LaRosa

Charlamagne Tha God
What you got in the latest?
Jess Hilarious
Man?
Lauren LaRosa
We got some Dame Dash.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, Lord.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. I mean, I think this is gonna put a button on it. The CEO at Revolt sent a email internally discussing Dame Dash and the chairman position or whatnot. So we gonna get into some things and some reactions to, you know, celeb reactions to all of the interview that we did.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay. We'll talk about it when we come back with the latest. It's the Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans
The Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's the world's most dangerous morning show. The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne, the guy DJ Envy is off for the rest of the week. Jess is running late. She overslept. But LL Cool Bears here, it's time for the latest for Lauren.
Jess Hilarious
Lauren becoming a straight face.
Charlamagne Tha God
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything she be having.
Charlamagne Tha God
Having the latest on.
Marlon Wayans
The Latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you have a little bit everything. Well, it's the latest on the Breakfast Club. I know your phone was hot yesterday. Lauren LaRosa.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, my God. Yes. So yesterday, after we had our conversations here about Dame Dash and all the things and interview, I, I mean I said it on air yesterday that I had spoken to. Well, you guys had heard from Revolt. I had heard from Revolt as well, but at the time I couldn't say who I'd heard from. But then I was told by a publicist that I spoke to who actually leads their comms over their communications. Like, hey, can you please put on record that you spoke to me? I want to make sure that people know that Dame Dash is not the chairman of Revolt. So I did that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, for people who just catching up, you should let them hear the claims that he made.
Lauren LaRosa
Okay. Yes. Do we. I don't even know if we had the.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, we don't have those claims.
Lauren LaRosa
Do we have them? I have them bring them over. We cut them yesterday, but so basically what Dame Dash claimed was that he was the New chairman of Revolt. He also claimed that he was going to be acquiring Revolt. That chairman position would be a path to acquiring Revolt Network. And then he would also. He was also saying that he was previously in conversations with BET to acquire bet and they were really. Revolt was really upset about that because internally, it caused a lot of, like, issues. Now, when I posted that, hey, I spoke to the lead publicist at Revolt who confirms Dame Dash is not the chairman. Oh, baby. When I say all the guns came.
Charlamagne Tha God
Out, didn't he threaten to sue me, what I had to do with it?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, he did threaten to sue you as well. He actually said. He said that you were up here making false claims and that his attorneys would get involved if you continue to do so.
Charlamagne Tha God
What false claims did I make?
Lauren LaRosa
I'm not. Because we were talking about, Remember you said on air the Revolt thing. He said, charlamagne, I would advise you not to make up phony stories without real names saying that anything I said was not true or we will have a legal problem. Don't try to compromise my reputation. I have proof to support everything I say that will stand up in any court.
Charlamagne Tha God
He said he was going to be the new chairman of Revolt and he said that he was going to acquire Revolt. And Revolt reached out to us and told us that wasn't true. How's that my fault?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, and we have the Dame audio now, too. You guys should hear him say, let's take a listen.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm now the chairman of Revolt right now. And I also, I have 50 deserve to be the chairman. I got you. So I'm now the chairman of Revolt with a pathway, you see, because he wants to trigger me and I want you to acknowledge that. So I'm now Cam's boss, the chairman of Revolt with a pathway to acquisition. I've been trying to buy Revolt. Can't see this on deadline. Can you stop yelling? Can you stop interrupting me, please? Deadline wasn't. Didn't make the announcement for this particular situation. They didn't want to. I had an announcement I was going to make with bt, but Paramount stepped in and they said do it later. And they didn't want to be a part of this mess. It will be in something. You know, this gets played tomorrow, so the announcement will be in the trades tomorrow. I've been trying to buy Revolt and I also just did a 25 episode deal for my podcast for Bosses Take Losses and I'm putting all my content on Revolt. Dope. I just want the record to show, too. I told him he doesn't deserve to be the chairman because he told me I didn't deserve something. Early in the interview, I forgot what it was, though. I was just matching his energy. That's.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, the trade that he was talking about or the news announcement he was talking about came via Vibe. So Vibe did an article and it was like, you know, mind you, this is following me saying, hey, the lead publicist ever all is saying Dame Dash is not chairman. Not for a month, not for any time. So Vibe did an article. It was an announcement of him being a chairman at Revolt. It said that it would be for a month term. And then it had quotes from the CEO of Revolt or alleged quotes from the CEO of Revolt and all these things. Right? So all this is happening. And then there is the Shade Room that obtains an exclusive email that was sent internally at Revolt. Now, this email is from Detavio Samuels, who is the CEO of Revolt Television. And in the email, he says, I know some of you may have caught Dame Dash's interview on the Breakfast Club today. To set the record straight, Dame Dash and is a hip hop pioneer with a proven track record as a creator. Yes, we've been in conversations about potential partnerships, things like licensing his shows and films for Rebot for Revolt, but there is no signed deal. He is not the chairman of our company. There's no acquisition path on the table. The quote from me and Vibe is completely fabricated. I never said any of that. If anything major were to happen, you'd hear it directly from me. And then they go into some news that, you know, that is actually true, that is actually happening from them. Like, they just partnered with Naomi Osaka on some sports women in sports content. They'll be doing, you know, just some of the positive things that they wanted to highlight. But, yeah, they had to internally tell their team, hey, this is not true. Because the employees were like, what is happening right now?
Charlamagne Tha God
I told y' all yesterday that I thought he was capping. I also told y' all yesterday he was gonna spend all day explaining himself, and that's exactly what he did. Didn't Cam have something to say about this yesterday?
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. So Cameron posted online and he more so was it was laughing at Dame Dash as well. Let's do we only have Cameron with Adrian? Yeah. So Cameron was more so laughing at Dame Dash.
Charlamagne Tha God
So I saw him explain some stuff too.
Lauren LaRosa
Okay, so we'll grab that as well. In the meantime, you remember when he was here as well, he talked about Claudia Jordan and he mentioned 50 Cent. 50 Cent also has something to say. 50 Cent it wasn't a video, but 50 Cent posted on Instagram and he said, he said, I don't know why Dame Dash is calling me a liar. And basically because Dame Dash was saying that 50 hadn't grab the rights to Paid in Full. Claudia Jordan has something to say because Dame Dash talked about the lawsuit that she was involved in because she was in the movie. Dear Frank, let's take a listen.
Jess Hilarious
Dame Dash once again has my name in his mouth when he should be having Pauline tight grip in his mouth instead holding those cheap ass dentures in place instead of worrying about me. Why do you keep trying to bring me into your mess? You've been sued by everybody, you've lost every single lawsuit and you owe the government all this money, yet you keep trying to bring me into your. On the set of Dear Frank, you are wildly inappropriate. You did when I said that should have shut it down. And what you did to me during the one scene was up. I have not embarrassed you yet because everybody else has done that job for me and including yourself. But if you want to keep running your mouth, then I'm going to tell my side usually pervert on set. You were disgusting. The things you did with that porn te and what you tried to do to get me ready for a scene with you while your shunt was showing out of your chest and you thought you was hot. You were not mess. And yes, I understand you see me everywhere. So. And you're nowhere except pretending to own ranches that you don't own and borrowing money from people. And you see people that are just flourishing without you. And like once, like you do with Jay Z, you're just sitting there jealous of everybody else, counting everybody else's money. So now you want to include me in your lawsuit? Bring it on.
Charlamagne Tha God
What is this shunt? See? Murder. Tell me what? Text me later and tell me where the shunt is.
Lauren LaRosa
I don't know. But in this also, Dame had. Because remember, you said he was going to be trying to explain himself. So Dame posted some text between that he alleged between him and the Tavio Samuels who was the CEO of Revolt. And he's basically trying to show that there was an ownership conversation of some sort. Now the. The text message conversation, they're talking about exclusivity of content. The Tavio or whoever this other person is is saying we can align on clips and other things from America News. So there's something, but it can only live in one place. And then Dame does act in this text. He said, you know, in addition to Other things also, is there still a pathway to own now the tavio texts back and. But he also says after that, but I'm cool with it if it's just for bosses take losses to start. And then Dame says, not my YouTube channel. Oh, not my YouTube channel, my network. The tavio responds, yes, and I'm with these folks. And then it's cut off. Then there's an email where the tavio is allegedly introducing Dane Dash to someone on an email thread.
Jess Hilarious
It.
Charlamagne Tha God
I got a headache already.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
So all I know is Dame cares too much what the Internet thinks. You know me. But you know what's interesting? A couple weeks ago, Dame was sitting down on Art of Dialogue, being Chatty Patty, and he said Cameron's premature public announcement of becoming president of Rockefeller back in 2002 caused real problems and created real tension at Rockefeller back then. But fast forward just two weeks later and Dame is on the radio making the same kind of premature announcements. Matter of fact, it's not even premature. It wasn't even. There's nothing to announce.
Lauren LaRosa
I really didn't understand what happened there. Like, I, I didn't believe that. I mean, I know when I, when I post the story that, like, I do my due diligence to find out what really happened, but when I found out, I was like, there's no way he. Does he. I don't know. I was, I was caught off guard.
Charlamagne Tha God
But, you know, you can't believe somebody would just lie like that.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. For the record, Dame called me a liar when I. When I mentioned that he was not the chairman of Revolt.

Bring the boom X Boom from producer Jordan Peele. The horror event of the season is Universal Pictures Hymn, which hits theaters September 19th. Produced by Jordan Peele and directed by Justin Tipping, Hymn is a sports horror mashup and stars Marlon Wayans, who plays Isaiah White, the greatest football player of all time. Tariq Withers plays Cameron Cade, an up and comer and protege. Cam gets the offer of a lifetime when he's called upon by Isiah to train at his compound. Things get weird fast as Isiah's training methods are a bit intense. Marlon Wayans is Terrifying. And Tariq Withers proves he has what it takes to be the goat. Meeting your idols isn't all that is cracked up to be in him. And begs the question, how far will you go? To be the greatest of all time, you have to be willing to sacrifice everything. Him hits theaters September 19th. Once again, make sure you check out him in theaters September 19th.
Lauren LaRosa
No, from.
Charlamagne Tha God
And then threaten to sue me.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
And what?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, through. Tried to throw other legal things away.
Charlamagne Tha God
This is why you just gotta laugh at Dame. And I need somebody to make a Dame Dash versus Dame Dash video where Dame is literally violating all his own rules. Everything he tells others not to do, he does.
Lauren LaRosa
God bless him.
Charlamagne Tha God
God bless him. And I hope he heals. Yeah, I really do. I really hope. Dame Dash Hills. Thank you, Lauren, for the latest.
Lauren LaRosa
You're welcome.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay, coming up, we got front page News with Tesla Figaro and Marlon Wayans will be joining us this hour. He's got a new movie out this Friday, a Jordan Peele film. Actually called him. Called him. And we'll talk to him all about it. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans
You're checking out the Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes. The world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast. Breakfast Club. Charlemagne, the God dj Envy is off. I don't know where Jess is. I thought just supposed to be here, but I guess she's off too. But LL Cool Bay is here. Lauren LaRosa. And it's time for Front Page news.
Tesla Figaro
Absolutely.
Lauren LaRosa
Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.
Tesla Figaro
And Charlemagne, the guy. Well, let's talk a little bit about, you know, the protests were happening in California. You remember how that was going on this summer? Well, they actually released a report to talk about how many of those projectiles, which is basically those rubber bullets, bullets that were fired into the crowd. So they released a state mandate report of the LA Police Department talking about the use of force against the protesters. And they found out, guys, that over 1,000 projectiles, which again, are those rubber bullets, were released in one single day in June. So they were definitely, you know, getting it in as far as those protesters were concerned. Now, this was the immigration crackdown, when folks came out to, you know, support or to be anti immigration and when they deployed the National Guard. So we've been having those conversations, guys, remember the National Guard? We talked about it yesterday. The National Guard that's in Memphis, how the National Guard will be going to Chicago next. This is the result of that. Now, the issue is in 2021, California restricted the rights. Restricted the use of these type of rubber bullets and you know, said that it should only be used in certain circumstances and they're looking for different ways to, to have crowd control. So right now they are going through a conversation to see if any of those rules have been violated. And we also have a nine year old boy. It's been dark this week. I wanted to do something positive. I want to tell you about the youngest neuroscience student in history. Let's take a listen to this wonderful story. Take a listen.
Morgan Wood
Academics has always been easy for this nine year old freshman in college. On Monday, he started off his week at Earth Sinus College.
Charlamagne Tha God
Ever since I was three, a lot.
Morgan Wood
Younger, I was been, I've been watching anatomy videos and I was always fascinated.
Lauren LaRosa
When I saw like the brain.
Morgan Wood
In a classroom filled with 18 to 20 year olds, Aiden is working to make his dream come true as a pediatric neurosurgeon.
Caller/Listener
The reason why I want to to.
Morgan Wood
Be a pediatric neurosurgeon is mainly because, well, I like helping kids around my age. Three times a week, Aiden can be seen hitting the books at Ursinus College. The other days he's taking virtual classes at Reach Cyber Charter school as a sophomore in high school. At just nine years old, Aiden Wilkins is the youngest student in history at Ursinus College.
Charlamagne Tha God
What a genius.
Lauren LaRosa
I know.
Tesla Figaro
What a genius, isn't it? Did you hear how cute he. Well, when I was two, a lot younger, you know, he's only nine.
Lauren LaRosa
How do y' all know when y' all kids are gay? Gifted like that, like that, that just happens from birth.
Charlamagne Tha God
I think all kids are gifted like that. I think what we end up doing is putting kids in a box, right? Like we give kids things like the ABCs and the 1, 2, 3s and we think that's all they can handle. And the reason I noticed that is because of how my daughters read. Like I'll be sitting there like last night, I'm sitting there watching CNN and one of my daughters loves to come sit by me and she'll be talking and as I'm listening to what she's saying, she's reading the lower thirds. So the ticker that's going down at the bottom. And she's six years old and she's just reading the ticker and I, and I last night I was like, man, should I stop her? Because a lot of this stuff is very dark about Charlie Kirk and you know, Tyler Robinson. But I'm like, nah, because she's learning like just. So let her cook.
Tesla Figaro
Yeah, yeah, that's that's interesting you said that because he actually was reading street signs at 2 years old. So to answer your question, Lauren, he was literally like before kids were even talking, he was doing a lot of reading. So his mother, I did some additional digging and looked into the story. His mother was like, yeah, you know, he's really gifted and, and, and started putting him, you know, into different programs. And I want to ask you guys about that because, you know, sometimes this, he's a sophomore in high school. And I know you've probably heard conversation before with should you let kids just stay on pace or should you go ahead and let them advance and not really have that traditional, you know, traditional school. Traditional school with their age. What do you guys think about that? Do you think, you know, that that's cool to have him, you know, be a sophomore at nine years old in high school?
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't have a problem with it.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. Because what else do you do if he don't he. You waste his time anywhere else he.
Charlamagne Tha God
Learning under that and then, and I doubt he's actually going to the school. I'm sure he's getting home. Home training.
Tesla Figaro
No, he's actually going well, yeah, you know, he's at a charter school, so he's attending high school. And so half of his day he's actually going to the actual college to take these neuroscience classes. So he, you know, does half his day at this regular charter school and then half the day like at actually in class with these 18, 19 year olds.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't have a problem with it, but I was also born in 1978 and I grew up off doogie houses so I thought, you know, 14 year olds being doctors was a normal thing.
Tesla Figaro
Right, well, shout out to him. We needed some positive news. So shout out to him this wonderful story. Shout out little Aiden. Keep it going.
Charlamagne Tha God
Absolutely. Thank you Taz for front page news. And listen man, please remember that Teslin Figaro is going to be on Abby Phillips show on CNN tomorrow night and she's gonna be in studio with us tomorrow doing front page news live. But I am really looking forward to seeing Taz on Abby Phillips. They still ain't told you who you're gonna be on with.
DJ Envy
They still ain't talking.
Tesla Figaro
You know, they only tell you the day of. And you know, Charlie, a lot of people don't know that. A lot of times we don't get our con, our talking points until the day of. We don't know what the topic is. We don't know who we sit next to. So it's gonna be a big surprise. So thank you for putting the pressure on, brother.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, if there's one thing I know about Tess, Taz, stay ready so she don't gotta get ready, okay? M16 sniper. What you used to shoot in the army?
Tesla Figaro
60, baby. 23 pound weapon.
Charlamagne Tha God
Come on now.
Tesla Figaro
I'll shoot the M16 as well, but I was a 60 gunner.
Charlamagne Tha God
Come on now. All right, tell them where to follow you, Ted.
Tesla Figaro

It is a sports horror film, and he'll be here to talk to us all about it when we come back. It's the world's most dangerous morning show. The Breakfast Club.

Charlamagne Tha God

Marlon Wayans
One wasn't enough. I felt bad for you. I felt bad for you. I felt bad for her. Oh, my God. Too much toxic masculinity going on. Balls on the table at all times.
Charlamagne Tha God

Cameron

Charlamagne Tha God
Jordan Peele, Monkey Paw Production.
Marlon Wayans
Yes, sir.
Charlamagne Tha God
What made you want to do a dark psychological sports car movie?
Marlon Wayans
He called and I said yes. What? You say no to Jordan Peele? There's certain people don't say no to. Picture Me. Nah, I'm good. Yeah, I'm good. I'm gonna do something. I'm gonna go do Little Man 2. It's Jordan Peele. I mean, here's the thing. It was a. Was great. Is one of those roles I didn't have to audition for. They wanted me. They was just like, you're the guy. Him and director Justin Tipping, two visionaries. Call you. You pick up the phone, you go, I bet I'm gonna bring my A game. And I got. I think I Put my best performance in the best movie.
Charlamagne Tha God
How does that feel when somebody sees something in you that you may not see in yourself?
Marlon Wayans
I feel like an old slave. Like, I know you ain't talking about me. Are you sure you ain't talking about Sean, Damien? What you need me to do, son? I couldn't believe it, but it felt. Feels good, you know, Because I'm so busy working that I don't realize how much work I've done. I'm so. I got my head down. Y' all know me. I would just be on the grind, grind, grind. I don't really know the effect that I've had, right? Until you have these moments in your life where you look up and you go, wait, I've been doing this for 35 years, and I got this resume, like. And it's crazy because it's like, you're one of one. I don't know anybody that's just. That has a skill level you got. At this point, there's probably three or four guys that can do this, and either they're dead crazy or they ain't doing it no more. And I was just like, boom. But I think about it, and they go. You get to a point, it's like, I don't want to audition if y' all don't know my work by now. I have played a junkie in Requiem. I have played seven people in Sextuplets. I played a little person, a white woman. I've done it all. A football player, basketball player. I've done it all. What do you do with the guy? Could do everything. Let him do everything. So these are my years where I just. I just do everything.
DJ Envy
How do you shut down, though? Cause like you said, you do everything.
Marlon Wayans
You do a special.
DJ Envy
I feel like every other month, you're always on the road. You always do movies. Like, so how do you shut down.
Charlamagne Tha God
And be like, all right, I'll put.
DJ Envy
The effort to doing this?
Marlon Wayans
Well, you do specials when you are special. God just made me special. No, because I work so much, so it's not like I don't need 20 years to craft a standup special, right? Because this is what I do. Check my schedule. I'm on the road every weekend. Check marlon wayans.com. i am on the road every week.
Charlamagne Tha God
Weekend.
Marlon Wayans
I'm about to do Scary Movie. Guess what? Scary Movie sticks. I'm on the road every weekend because I'm preparing for something great. So I just do the work. So specials, to me, I'm ready to film my next one. And I already know my next two after that because I write scripts. I got a writer in my head at all times. It's just like, you know, pitching me jokes. That and God. And so I'm always working and so I don't like to hold on to material. I think you let it go. It's like a blank canvas. I just want to paint, man. Just give me the. I just want to paint. I just love it. I love what I do, man.
Charlamagne Tha God
I was arguing about you last week because somebody in the room said I saw Marlon Wayans on. Kai said not scream. And he was. He was. He was almost as funny. No. What'd you say?
Lauren LaRosa
That's not first.
Marlon Wayans
Why is it always hot in here?
Charlamagne Tha God
She said, I was shocked. He was funnier than.
Lauren LaRosa
That's not what I said.
Marlon Wayans
Wow.
Lauren LaRosa
That is not. You lied.
Charlamagne Tha God
What are you saying?
Lauren LaRosa
We have a clip? I said, you got mad at me because I said said he was better than Kai. It was his dream. Because people come on that streams and don't know how to like interact with the chat and even if they're great at what they do.
Charlamagne Tha God
You have 35 years of experience.
Marlon Wayans
Too.
Charlamagne Tha God
But.
Marlon Wayans
And I get what you're saying.
Lauren LaRosa
Streamer space is different than what he does. So even though you're great at what you do, I don't know if you've seen the other streams prior to you. They're great talent, but they don't be knowing how to like, they'd be so lost.
Marlon Wayans
There's a 15 year old boy that lives inside of me that I will never grow up. If you spent the night at my house and I'm 53 years old and you got your mouth wide open. I'm gonna put some garbage in your mouth. You gonna wake up with makeup on your face. I am always. I'm a fart in your mouth. My son and his kid and his friends be like, dad, you gotta chill. Can you stop farting on my friend?
Charlamagne Tha God
You need two women. I need five. No, but.
Marlon Wayans
And I think the key to that show and even though all the streamers was like, bro, like you, you. That dude you. They were like, you, you, you. You ain't just movie funny. You ain't just TV funny. Like you funny funny. I was like, bro, I do this. This is what I do. I love to do this. And they were all surprised. But I was like, they like how you get like that? I was like, I live on a stage. I've been writing movies since I was 19. I went to fulminant high school. I'VE been snapping. I. That's what I do. I grew up in the projects. I roast people until you punch me in the face and I punch you back. That's what I like to do. That's how I make my friends. I make my friends. That's how we create our boundaries. I talk about you. That's how we created a friendship. You know what I'm saying? It's like sometimes you just gotta go at it. I'm a New York Negro. I'm never gonna not be the kid on the block ready to snap.
Charlamagne Tha God
Would you tell little Reggie? He said, I'm glad the abortion didn't go.
Marlon Wayans
Yeah, he tried to say some slick stuff.
Cameron
Little chest, you better get out of here.
Marlon Wayans
Go get your ass in the incubator.
DJ Envy
Is Kyle Shanak Golden Scary 6? Scary movie 6?
Marlon Wayans
Cause that's. We working on it, okay? We working on it. I love that little young brother.
Charlamagne Tha God
I love what he's doing.
Marlon Wayans
Most of all, I love that he stay out of trouble. I love his whole crew. I really think, like, you can't be an old head and not respect the youth. When they coming up, I sit there and go, hey, maybe I should start an old stream for old people, old heads. That would be a lot of fun.
Charlamagne Tha God
I was gonna figure out how to get on.
Marlon Wayans
What do you mean? I got kids. I got a two and a half year old. She know how to work.
Charlamagne Tha God
How we gonna figure out how to get on?
Marlon Wayans
Just come back. I got kids. Your daughters are. You got daughters?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, four.
Marlon Wayans
You got four daughters? Oh, you Nick Cannon Jr.
Charlamagne Tha God
You like? No.
Marlon Wayans
Same mama. How many mamas?
Charlamagne Tha God
Same sperm.
Marlon Wayans
That's good.
Jess Hilarious
That's good.
Marlon Wayans
You need to blast them all the way out.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's.
Marlon Wayans
That's sharp shooting. I'm proud of you, black man. But yes, that's. That stream was. It was just fun. I had so much fun. I think the key to life is you just have fun. Everything I do, I just have fun. And I put 150% into it. I don't let. No. I don't let nothing go. I'm not too cool. I just want to have fun. And that's always the way I'm going to be.
Charlamagne Tha God
And it does feel like you're constantly reintroducing yourself to a new audience. Like you said, she didn't know.
Lauren LaRosa
That's not true.
Charlamagne Tha God
And they didn't know, right? So it's like my kids.
Marlon Wayans
Friends. Friends didn't know. They all like, yo, you a goat. I know you was that funny. You didn't see Scary Movie. You didn't see white chicks. You didn't see don't be a Menace. You didn't see Mama Show. You didn't see skin.
Lauren LaRosa
You gotta go watch some of them old heads on when they come on that stream. They're great. But it's not.
Jess Hilarious
That's why I get what you're saying.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. Like I. I know when she was.
Charlamagne Tha God
Comparing athletes and like no celebrities. It's different with comedians.
Marlon Wayans
Yeah, Comedians are different people.
Lauren LaRosa
Kevin Hart was great as well too.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Marlon Wayans
Because he on the road.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. But I'm trying to like. I don't know. I think. Cuz it made me think, what if we had like, you know, the In Living Color stream. Like what if those worlds collided today? What would we see and how would the talent be?
Marlon Wayans
You're gonna see it. I'mma stop my stream. We're gonna be twitching soon, people, period. The way actually ain't on these. Oh, I can't get my old brother. Which camera is it then? Get that camera out my face. No, they. My brothers wouldn't do it, but I would. I'm just a true. That's what I love to do, you know. And I think eventually that is exactly what I'm gonna do. Here's so much. So when I went on that show, I have a wonderful stylist, Jason and Ron. And these brothers tried to put me in some cool boots and they were slippery. I was like, uh. And they had me dressed with some cool D squared pants and this suede jacket. I said no. I said why?
Charlamagne Tha God
This is.
Marlon Wayans
You wanna step up your level? I said no, no. I'm going in with these young negroes and they gonna be act. I want to be. I don't want to be sliding around. I don't want to feel like a unc. Give me put. I'm wearing these snap on Rick Owens. I'm wearing some Rick Owens sneakers. I'mma go in there with the youth and we going to have fun. So whatever they was doing, I was just like, oh, you want to dance?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes. This morning our special guest is Mr. Marlon Wayans. He's got a new movie out this Friday, a Jordan Peele film called Him. Now when you talk about the movie him, was there something in Isaiah White that challenged you?
DJ Envy
Well, break down what him is for people that because they haven't seen it yet. What is him about?
Marlon Wayans
Him is a basically it's a psychological horror thriller set in the world of football. And it's basically like never meet your idols. You know, it's like. And what Are you willing to sacrifice for success? So a young brother comes to the greatest quarterback who ever played. Basically like a Tom Brady's camp. I play Isaiah White. He's the greatest quarterback ever. Got eight reigns, eight rings. So he's the goat. So a young man, he's about to retire because he wants to be with his family, have a kid and chill out. He did it. And so this other kid, this new kid, comes along and he comes to his camp and he reminds him of the great he used to be. And he's like, I don't want to retire. I want to make your life hell. I want to break you. And so he goes about psychologically just dismantling him in a horrific kind of way. And what happens is it's the franchise basically is a representation for signing with, you know, like the devil, but it's not the devil. And it's all about the choice, because do you want to be? And he tells them, don't be me. Be better than me. So all these spoils are in there for all these athletes, for anybody, right? There's always a sacrifice. Oh, you want to get on? What are you willing to do to get on? Because at a point, it's not worth your integrity. You never lose your integrity. Don't be a part of the system. If you have to lose your integrity, you buck the system and you become the system. And that's what I've done my whole career. So that's what I really loved about the movie. There's something beautiful and positive for young, young people in our industry, whether whatever industry or whatever job it is, that there's a great message in there.
Charlamagne Tha God
For nothing should be taken literally is what you're saying.
Marlon Wayans
No, man, People. People crazy. That blood in the eye, you know, they doing devil worship, sacrificing goat. It ain't none of that, man. It's like, look, get off of that. It's a great movie. It's about good versus evil. At the end of the day, good is gonna win, so you gotta watch the movie. And honestly, I think it's probably my favorite movie I've been in. I think just dramatically, just visually, Justin Tipping did his thing. Tyreek Withers is great in the movie. Julia Fox is great. All the supporting cast is great. The soundtrack is great. When y' all see this movie, it's not a movie you gonna see one time. This movie you gonna see like four or five, six times.
Jess Hilarious
He was just telling us.
Marlon Wayans
You saw us.
Charlamagne Tha God
They sent me the screen. Wow.
Marlon Wayans
What'd you think?
Charlamagne Tha God
Think I Thought it was really good. But here's the thing.
Marlon Wayans
I think I. And for me, I think I gave my best performance.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. You and the dude that played Cameron.
Marlon Wayans
Yes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Y' all carried the movie by far. I had to watch it the first time. I was like, what did I just watch? And then when I watched it the second time, I understood a lot more of it. Yeah, but then when you said what you said just now, I'm like, oh, so that wasn't supposed to be taken literally?
Marlon Wayans
No.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay.
Marlon Wayans
Not literal, but. But I really feel like this. This movie, you know, I'm just grateful because the director let me off the chain. A lot of times directors try to cage you, and, you know, I'm a lion that I need a safari. I don't like to be caged. And sometimes that's good that you caged, because then it's about working the intensity. But when you open up that. When you starve me for two weeks, and then you open up that cage and it's Sunday, and it's the. It's full of people and kids, and you just sitting there hungry, and you're going to. I'm gonna eat. And he would just let me off the cage, let me off the. The hinge and just go. Go there. And he would just. We'd do two takes, and he goes, that was great. That was awesome. I said, you need something else? He goes, nah, that was great. And he goes, let's do one more. I said, what do you want? What do you need? Do you need something specific? No, I'm good. He goes, just do, and my eyes will light up. He was telling me, throw out the script and do your interpretation of what you feel inside as an artist. This is Miles Davis playing My Funny Valentine. Throw out the sheet music, and you express what you want, given the instrument that you possess. And so a lot of the stuff that we did in it, that's unhinged. I was able to just create on the fly. And I know how to. I know how to improvise as the character and for a reason. I'm not trying to be funny. I'm trying to break you. Breaking you means I gotta humiliate you. Oh, I'm gonna do that with my jokes. And so there was a lot of just freedom in that role. And I just feel like, you know, I think the world finally gets to see Marlon.
Charlamagne Tha God
And I don't know why I thought he was stealing people powers.
Marlon Wayans
No. Well, he wasn't stealing powers. He was. He was taking blood of greats. And infusing it. And then he put that blood in him, you know, because he's passing it on. And not until you get to that point where the two people got to collide now. Now we're colliding. Good versus evil.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Marlon Wayans
And then, you know, you'll see the movie. But, man, that I. I really. It's a powerful movie, man.
DJ Envy
I was an actor, right. Do you prefer direction where tell me how you want this, or do you prefer let me be. Be an actor, Let me be art?
Marlon Wayans
I prefer both because I know a director as a producer and a writer, and, you know, director. I know a director has a vision of how they see things, right?
DJ Envy
How they see it.
Marlon Wayans
They're already in the editing, so whatever you're doing, they're already in the editing booth. What do you need? If I do a take, like, more than four times, there's something specific that I'm not giving them, or the camera is messed up like this, out of focus, you know, the dolly move. So I don't take that personal. I know, but for me, I like a take where you go, do what you want. Do what I want now. Now you're gonna get something special. Now you get the comedian. Now you get the writer that's been writing movies since he was 19 years old. Now you get. Get the marlin that I have worked myself to be. And I can improve and enhance any material.
Lauren LaRosa
When you were shooting it, I always wondered when people who work with Jordan Peele, because you have to watch it so many different times, like Charlamagne said, when you're actually in it, are you ever in real time realizing that something might be interpreted one way? Like, oh, that's what this means, versus it being different than when you first read the script?
Marlon Wayans
No, I mean, I dig in. I do my work right? So before I get to set that I have a process, like, I don't go show up and just learn my lines in the trailer. No, no, no, no. You give me a script. Marlon dives in. So I work with my acting coach. I bring Leland Daron Thompson, Shout out. And, you know, you see my dramatic work. Like right now, when I'm locked. I be locked in right now. So the work I do in Stand up is the same work I do when it comes to breaking down a script. So before I get to set, not only do I know the lines, but I know the story. I know the obstacles. I know the objective in every scene, there's an intention. What am I trying to get? And then I'm prepared. So when the Director goes, all you gotta do is touch me like this and change this and get this and give me this emotion. And I got it all prepared because I worked it the night before, the morning before. I worked my body to get my body into a certain way. Like I put on muscle. I was 25 pounds bigger than I am now. I lost the weight because I'm about to do Shorty in Scary Movie 6. And I don't want him being buff. Son, I think that's twin.
Charlamagne Tha God
So would Isaiah have taken Magic Johnson's blood?
Marlon Wayans
Wow, wow, wow. Well, now he would. I may take Magic's blood.
Charlamagne Tha God
This man richer.
Marlon Wayans
Richer than he ever been. You, you better get some blood too. When he. When he's selling that he on yachts and boats. I want that blood.
Charlamagne Tha God
This morning, our special guest is Mr. Marlon Wayans. He's got a new movie out this Friday, a Jordan Peele film. Called him DJ Envy.
DJ Envy
White Chicks.
Charlamagne Tha God
I. I gotta ask.
DJ Envy
White Chicks, right?
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
DJ Envy
Hilarious, right? I think it's one of those movies I don't think people caught at first, but then when they caught it, they like, this is one of the funniest. Would you ever do a sequel to it?
Marlon Wayans
I would. I'm waiting for technology. I'm waiting for AI. I want to sit and make up seven hours again for set for 60 days. Sitting in seven hours of makeup and then working 14 hours after that, which means I'm sleeping two hours every day to do this movie. Nah, AI is coming. So I got to get in makeup two times and then the AI will do the work. I'm down for that. But other than that, I want to do Black man, the movie where I come In, I do five minutes of makeup and I get out at a 12 hour day.
Jess Hilarious
You said after White Chicks, they wanted you gone. What were some of the, like, did you ever face any hardships or any challenges after that?
Marlon Wayans
Nobody's supposed to be famous this long. They especially if you black. They know nobody that it's unheard of to stay around that long. It's because you work. Right? I will say this. Hollywood's a great place, but they don't know what to do with you. Right? So the opportunities you get, there's only a small margin that you're gonna get those opportunities. Right. Because before it gets to me, Will Smith got that script, Eddie Murphy got that script, Jamie Foxx got that script. So you gotta wait for all these people to turn it down. And I feel bad for regular, regular actors because then you gotta wait for after me. Then after Me, you gotta wait for Nick Cannon.
Charlamagne Tha God
Then you gotta.
Marlon Wayans
You know what I'm saying? Like, that that's a long time to wait to maybe get a role. But if you create the role and you put yourself as the star, now I can cast other people in my vision. So these are my best years. And I started out as a farmer, and my brothers taught me farming and agricultural to be an agriculturalist. Now I'm like industry, industry, industry. Philanthropy and education is the three things that I'm gonna work on in terms of building this brand.
Lauren LaRosa
I just feel when I've been watching your interviews, getting ready for this, that there's a. You have, like, a feeling of, like. There's, like, happiness, but there's, like, an arrival even though you've already been here. You said it took 53 years to feel special on CBS.
Marlon Wayans
Yeah, to get confident.
Lauren LaRosa
But that's to me, listening to you say that, it's crazy because, like, you've always been Marlon Wayans.
Marlon Wayans
I have, but there was missing pieces. I'm gonna run the tape.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, we can run. Okay. I know what I say.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay.
Marlon Wayans
And you know what? I trust you because you be on your facts.
Lauren LaRosa
Thank you.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay. Thank you.
Lauren LaRosa
What I'm trying to say to you is when I watch your interviews, I feel. I don't know, it just feels different. Like, you feel like you've arrived now.
Marlon Wayans
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Why? What is the feeling with this role?
Marlon Wayans
I've done the work. Life breaks you and rips you apart, and you survive through that. And you just go, oh, I get it. I'm here. And I. And, you know, like I said, I was always a happy go, lucky dude. Once I survived the trauma and the pain that I went through through, I'm a better actor. I'm a better actor because I've been through more. And now my comedy. I don't write about pop culture. I write about what hurts me, that I write from blood. So when you see my stand up, it's not just, oh, he's telling silly jokes. Oh, he got a story. Yo. There's something that I learned when I watched that. It's coming from a special place. And when you can make your pain funny, that's when you start getting great. Richard Price took his pain. He had a heart attack. And he's like, you know what's funny about having a heart attack? And he did the most brilliant bit on having a heart attack. That's where you. For me, that's when I got confident, when I started doing stand up and really looking at myself as an Artist and going, I want to be better. Writing scripts ain't enough. Acting ain't enough. Producing is not enough. And then when I said I want to be a superstar, stand up so now I can do it all, Put me anywhere. Let's go, let's rock. Let's get it.
DJ Envy
That's crazy that she's talking about the I've arrived moment.
Caller/Listener
Right?
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
DJ Envy
But we look at you from that. From a long time ago. Just look at the history that you've done. You know, every time they said you couldn't, you did it over. They try to take your, you know, what you've done. And you said, all right, F you. I don't need y'.
Caller/Listener
All.
DJ Envy
I'm gonna do it my own way.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's classic. If you had to write down, like, top five and living color sketches, I guarantee you, Mr. Ugly man gonna be weird that I had good instincts.
DJ Envy
It's weird that you saying, this is my, you know, I've arrived moment where we looked at it so long. Do you feel like you don't get the. The necessary. I don't want to say respect, but the kudos that you deserve because you are the funny guy.
Charlamagne Tha God
You are the cool guy.
Marlon Wayans
I mean, it's a lot, right? It's beyond being the funny guy. The cool guy. I think, you know, it's also. I'm the baby of legends. It's hard when you're the baby of legend. You got all these legendary dudes doing legendary things, and you were part of that tribe. Oh, that's Keenan Damon, little brother. And not to say that I want to stand out. It takes time to know Marlon, right? It took Michael Jackson a long time before he became Michael. You know, he was toured with his brothers till he was like 35, 40 years old, and he was like, okay. Then he bad and, you know, off the wall. He's done little things, and then Thriller hits and you go, oh, he's Michael. It takes time for you to stand apart when you come from such a legacy. And I never wanted to stand apart because I love Wayans. I die Wayans. I breathe Wayans.

DJ Envy
From producer Jordan Peele. The horror event of the season is Universal Pictures Hymn, which hits theaters September 19th. Produced by Jordan Peele and directed by Justin Tipping, Hymn is a sports horror mashup and stars Marlon Wayans, who plays Isaiah White, the greatest football player of all time. Tariq Withers plays Cameron Cade, an up and comer and protege. Cam gets the offer of a lifetime when he's called upon by Isiah to train at his compound. Things get weird fast as Isiah's training methods are a bit intense. Marlon Wayans is terrifying, and Tariq Withers proves he has what it takes to be the goat. Meeting your idols isn't all that is cracked up to be in him and begs the question, how far will you go? To be the greatest of all time, you have to be willing to sacrifice everything. Him hits theaters September 19th. Once again, make sure you check out him in theaters September 19th.
Morgan Wood
It's Morgan Wood from the Black Information Network. Many in this world are pushing lies, fostering hate and dividing our children. Others in this world refuse to let that stand. Meet four of the others. Pastor Dumasani Washington, Dr. Brandy Shuvatinsky, artist Tamir Peretz and black Israeli Arab student activist Tamer Masouddin. 4 Voices of Truth loudly crushing propaganda Join them and me, because truth matters.
Marlon Wayans
And for the past 15 years, I just been working on Marlon so that when I come back to Wayans, I could be a better, stronger finger in that big in that fist and do our best work. That's why Scary Movie six, this is big. This is bringing us all back together. And now I got a completely different skill set than I had when I did the first one. So I can't wait till next summer. June 12th in theaters. Scary Movie 6. We come with these laughs. Everybody needs these laughs. And I just feel like that's why I said I. I feel like I've arrived because everything's moving in slow motion. I get it. It's the Matrix.
Charlamagne Tha God
I also wonder the expectation of being a wins. It's kind of like they just expect greatness from y', all. So it's just like, whatever.
Marlon Wayans
Yeah, but that. That. That goes with it. But you gotta think about this. Things that I haven't gotten yet that I don't yearn for. Don't. I didn't. It's not that I. That makes my identity, but I want them statues. I want that in me. I want that Oscar. I want that Grammy for my comedy album. I want that Tony for a Broadway play. I want those things, and I'm gonna get those things. And if I fall short and I don't get an egot, if I got a guy, I'm happy. If I got an ah, I'm happy. But I know that I'm putting in the work. And even after I get that, to me, I still never made it because you stay hungry as an artist. Look at guys like coach. 60 points on his last game, he kept doing the work. It's about doing the work. The Kobe that was in the league when he was 19, he was dope then. But you see the Kobe at 35 when he starting to win those rings consecutively, That's a different Kobe Bryant. Then after he left, him and Shaq had their dismantling of that team for him to go get another ring or two more rings after that without Shaq. That's because that man was an ass animal. You got to be. I'm an animal. I'm in that gym. I'm working out. I'm working my instrument. I'm on a stage. I am not going to fail my moments, period. Clock it.
Jess Hilarious
Speaking of scared. Hold up, Charlemagne. Speaking of Scary Movie six.

Charlamagne Tha God

Jess Hilarious
Absolutely.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's time for the latest with Lauren.
Jess Hilarious
Lauren becoming a straight face.
Charlamagne Tha God
She gets him from somebody that knows somebody. Somebody details.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Charlamagne Tha God
She be having the latest on the.
Marlon Wayans
Latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details. Sometimes she have a little bit of everything on the Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans
Talk to me.
Lauren LaRosa
Alrighty. So wanted to explain a little bit more about what went down behind the scenes with Cameron. And not even Cameron, but Dane Dash and Revolt TV is Camron because, you know.
Charlamagne Tha God
Know what I'm saying? We still talking about this?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, we have to now we gotta get to this one. I know it was a big day. Dame Dash is currently trending across Google because of the interview. So we gonna get this in because Cameron actually this is the button that we should have put on it last hour. So apologies for not having it then. We got it. Now Cameron explains what actually went down between Cameron, Dame Dash and Revolt and how we got here. Let's take a listen.
Cameron
I ain't know you be lying like this, bro. You know when doing it. Yeah, man, you don't pay attention to a lot of the cold Revolt last week and say he wants to put his content on Revolt channel. Revolt programming is booked up until 2026. I have two more shows I could do this year. And so when I found that out, I called my man Fendi. I said, yo, tell Ding I put his shows on my slot on Revolt because I have two more shows I could put on Revolt if I can executive produce the shows. When I needed to help, he put his out. He put my albums out on Rockefeller and I let him executive producer. I'm trying to do the same thing for you. Got a couple dollars for you. I'm just the executive producer of the show. First he tells friendy. Yeah, he like I bet not. Matter of fact down the Godfather, he can't produce. Executive produce my shows. How you the Godfather anything? Your word don't count no more. You don't got teeth, you have dentures. Your word don't mean nothing. You fell off the Mount Rushmore Harlem a long time time ago. But we'll address it all tomorrow and Friday. But don't say I ain't trying to help out. You didn't want me executive produce your TV shows. Could have walked the right in for you.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's sad, man. Dame cares too much about what other people think, especially in regards to his finances. He wants to be perceived as a boss, so he just wanted to say he was chairman of Revolt so he can come off as Cam's boss. Yeah, that's corny.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, crazy. A lot of the interviews corny, but, yeah, crazy.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. Well, part one of what Kim is going to be dropping on Revolt is at 5pm tonight as a reminder. And then part two will drop drop on Friday. And Cam's caption to that video was, let's play swear to God, Lying through your gums is treacherous. But I got you tomorrow and Friday.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know what, though? You supposed to eat off this type of content. Like this yesterday is what I call a Thanksgiving turkey. Everybody eat right. Especially in. Cam has every right to. Because, you know, I just don't know why Cam would. I mean, why Dan would go to that extreme. Yeah, just to come off as Cam's boss. Like, as if that wouldn't be fact checked in real time.
Jess Hilarious
It is crazy.
Charlamagne Tha God
And he must think there's a coffin for real and nobody listens to the breakfast.
Lauren LaRosa
He definitely thinks you've been inside his room for 15 years. You don't know what's going on.
Jess Hilarious
He said 30.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, my bad. 30 years.
Charlamagne Tha God
It'll be 15 for us. Damn it.
Jess Hilarious
But he wanted to be 30 someday. But y' all saw Claudia.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes, we did, and we played it last hour. But, yeah, you. Thank you for sending me that.
Jess Hilarious
She, you know, Claudia gonna give. Give a the blues, she said. And she not done yet. Oh, God. She said next time she. She in New York, she want to stop past to clear some things up here or go.
Lauren LaRosa
She want to run into.
Jess Hilarious
Ding, ding, ding.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm like, wait. Then he's like, in Nebraska or somewhere.
Jess Hilarious
Man, she hit me as soon as she saw it. Like, oh, no, he lied. He playing around. She went on the n. Well, in.
Lauren LaRosa
Other news, I wanted to take some time to also shout out Ken Cam Cameron, because on his. On the show that he does it is what it is with him and Mace. They have stat baby Treasure Wilson, who is a journalist that works as, like, an anchor or moderator on the show. And they had Adrian Bronner on the show, and the. They had to. Cam had to ask Adrian Bronner to leave because that baby was uncomfortable. Let's take a listen to that. Let's take a listen to the first clip.
Tesla Figaro
You look so good in person.
Charlamagne Tha God
Thank you.
Jess Hilarious
You appreciate that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Hey, what you Waste that. What do you say?
Lauren LaRosa
What you.
Charlamagne Tha God
I love you. I'm sorry. I'm My bad, y'. All. My bad.
Jess Hilarious
Hey, St. Could you stop sm. Can you stop smiling?
Cameron
Yo. Yo, bro. Some, we got boyfriend here, yo. Oh, I told you that.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad.
Cameron
Okay, we go so we can move on to football.
Jess Hilarious
Just that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, my God.
Marlon Wayans
Just that.
Cameron
Let's do the football. I guess I answered the question about Floyd. When I see. When I see you taking off, sometimes.
Jess Hilarious
I'm mesmerized by stat. Yeah, bro, I did not know you looked that good in person. Yeah, He a clown. He's always there. Like, he's. He's always making some woman feel uncomfortable, though.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
Adrian Brown is a certified clown.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. And they were trying to play it off. They were trying to keep going and do the show, but it was. It was a little difficult. Yeah. And so eventually what happened was what you brought to say Charlotte.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now, did Cam say her boyfriend was dead too?
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. He did say her boyfriend was there as well. So too. So eventually they had to. Cam had to ask him to leave. Let's take a listen to that.
Cameron
All right. Hey, we gonna have to actually go. I mean, I have to ask you to go. I'm gonna pay you for your time. I appreciate you. I love you.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm not doing it again.
Cameron
Yeah, no, no, no. I can't. I asked you the first time. I don't have no problems with you, but I'mma pay you for your time. But you can't validate, bro. I told you that.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm not, though.
Jess Hilarious
I'm not.
Cameron
I told you boyfriends are here. You know, my boyfriend.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad.
Cameron
No, no, but I appreciate your time.
Jess Hilarious
Is he on something?
Lauren LaRosa
He sounds very perked up. Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
Jesus Lord.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, he does.
Jess Hilarious
He sounds great. Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's a respect thing. If you gave him a warning once. Right? And yeah, you continue, and then she's uncomfortable. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jess Hilarious
Damn. And. And I also love how Cameron stepped in, you know, and defended his co host, too. You know what I mean? Whether his boyfriend. Whether her boyfriend was there or not, that's how you do that.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. I think that. That when I watched it, I was like, man, I was wanted to make sure that I shouted him out for that, because a lot of times in those situation as women, you don't want to be the person that says something because you feel like, oh, I don't want to mess up the. Or the vibe or be like, oh, she's doing too much. So to have a man step in it, it just. It changes.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
But y' all should say something if y' all feel uncomfortable. If Y' all feel uncomfortable in the moment, you should say something. Because especially in. In these environments. Because a lot of times, a lot of things get mistaken as just entertainment.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's just content. But if you should.
Lauren LaRosa
Have you ever felt like I don't want to, though? Because you don't want to be the person. I promise you we should. And you.
Charlamagne Tha God
Jess, will go on Instagram.
Jess Hilarious
But, yeah, absolutely. I felt very, you know, I felt like by a man before.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
You know, on sex and stuff like that. And not haven't said anything because I didn't want to be the one to be like, oh, nah, you know, here she go. Here she go.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. I swear it feels like that.
Jess Hilarious
Me, too. You know what I mean?
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Jess Hilarious
Because they don't believe you off the rip. So a lot of times.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. But that is it for the latest in this hour. Next hour, we're going to talk about Beyonce's music and how it's still on the run.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, since you just said that, why don't we tell him to come to the front of the congregation? Kelvin Evans. Kelvin Evans should come to the front of the congregation. We would like to have a word with him about Beyonce's hard drive. Okay.
Jess Hilarious
Calvin Evans.
Charlamagne Tha God
You about to find out. Yes. It's the Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans
You're checking out the Breakfast Club.
Tesla Figaro

Charlamagne Tha God
Let's go. They have to make a judgment of.
Tesla Figaro
Who was going to be on the.
Caller/Listener
Donkey of the Day.
Charlamagne Tha God
They chose you, the Breakfast Club, bitch.
Marlon Wayans
Who's Donkey of the Day today?
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, Donkey of the day for Wednesday, September 17, goes to a man named Kelvin Evans. Kelvin is the most unlucky thief in America. Why? Because when you're a thief, it's not just about what you steal or the fact you stealing sometimes it's about who you steal from. And Kelvin picked the wrong one to steal from. You hear me? Okay. See, Kelvin was doing what has become a national pastime in the city of Atlanta, and that's breaking in cars. All right, Dropping a clues bomb for Atlanta. Salute to everybody who listens to us on 96.1 to beat. You know, we there every year for the Black Effect Podcast Festival. I was just there a couple weeks ago for Invest Fest. Too soon to earn your leisure? Every time I'M in Atlanta. People feel the need to warn me that a vehicle I'm in may get broken into. Okay. I forgot what part of town it is. One of the heads bank buck one of them. But when you in Atlanta, they will tell you that if you got a car, especially something relatively nice, they would tell you that you might as well keep your windows rolled down so they don't break the windows. Okay. When someone breaks into your vehicle, that happened to you, didn't you?
Jess Hilarious
Yes, it did.
Charlamagne Tha God
In Atlanta, right?
Jess Hilarious
Twice. Yes, sir.
Marlon Wayans
Damn.
Charlamagne Tha God
Twice in the same car?
Lauren LaRosa
No, a different car.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay. Well, Kelvin is one of those individuals who'll be breaking into people's vehicles. And on July 8, 2025, he broke into the wrong one and stole the wrong thing from the wrong person. Let's go to Atlanta News first for the report, please. Atlanta police and a man accused of.
Marlon Wayans
Stealing unreleased Beyonce music is now in custody.
Morgan Wood
That theft happened days before the superstar's first Cowboy Carter concert concert at Mercedes Benz Stadium in July. Atlanta News 1st. Yasmina Alston is live at the Fulton County Jail. So, Yasmina, what have you learned about this? Well, I can tell you that police tell us Kelvin Evans is still in this jail on a $20,000 bond after he was taken into custody for his alleged involvement. He is here facing a charge of entering an automobile with intent to commit theft. That theft allegedly includes unreleased Beyonce music that was on hard drives in one of the several stolen bags.
Charlamagne Tha God
Bags.
Morgan Wood
This reportedly happened in a Crog street parking garage where Beyonce's choreographer and a dancer told investigators they parked their rental car, which was broken into. Police had a car description which eventually led them to Evans at an apartment complex on Hank Aaron Drive, where video showed him taking. Taking the stolen bags out of the car. But in the end, it was an unrelated incident call that led hateful police to arresting Evans on the Atlanta theft charge.
Charlamagne Tha God
Calvin. Kelvin. Kelvin, you must be in. You must be crazy in love with jail, okay? Trying to steal Beyonce's hard drive is literally like trying to steal a beehive full of bees, okay? Would you even attempt to steal a beehive full of bees? Number one, you was on parole, okay? When you on parole, you are supposed to maintain employment. And guess what? If you had a job, you wouldn't have to break into people's cars. So all you had to do was follow the rules of your parole and you wouldn't be in the situation you in now. But no, instead of being free, mingling with all the single ladies, you back in jail, and there Is nobody to blame but you, okay? You should look in the mirror and say, you know why I'm back in jail? Me, myself, and I. That's all you got in the end. Now, I'm sure vehicles get broken into in Atlanta all the time, but it's not everyday. Vehicles get broken into and hard drives with unreleased beyond, say, music on them get stolen. That right there immediately made you a different kind of suspect. See those hard drives with Beyonce music? Those are irreplaceable, okay? Every single law enforcement official in Atlanta got in formation when they received that call. And when it came to that case, every single law enforcement official in Atlanta had to go check on it. You immediately made yourself the hottest car thief in America, okay? Not to mention, now that your name is out there there, you might as well delete all your social media, okay? You think the Beehive is going to let you live? They're going to find you a Facebook, Instagram, Tic Tac? They going to have your baby pictures. They probably got your grandma's Social Security number already. And when they post your grandma looking crazy in her church hat, you don't have anyone to blame but yourself because you shouldn't have been breaking into people's vehicles to begin with. You really thought you was going to steal five jump drives containing watermark vehicles? Music. Some unreleased music footage, plans for Beyonce's show, future set list. And nobody was gonna ring the alarm. Please give Kelvin Evans the sweet sounds of the Hamiltones. You know what makes it even crazier? When he stole it. On the day he stole it, it was a MacBook Air laptop. It was pinging wherever he was at. At the Hank Aaron Drive complex. The day at the.
Jess Hilarious
He just kept it.
Charlamagne Tha God
He just kept it.
Lauren LaRosa
You ate that with the song?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, I was ready to say he ate. Listen, you can't ever compliment him.
Lauren LaRosa
That's why every.
Jess Hilarious
Yo, I don't know why I do it every time.
Lauren LaRosa
Call him tall. See if you take that one.
Jess Hilarious
Gosh, no.
Charlamagne Tha God
Why would you lie to me? I mean, I don't like being lied to.
Lauren LaRosa
Men's egos need li sometimes.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know, I was thinking about something y' all said a little while ago, right? When y' all was talking about the Adrian Bronner. Yes. Right. What is the proper protocol in that situation? When. Like when a woman is uncomfortable and doesn't say she's uncomfortable and wants a man to intervene, like, what is the proper way for a woman to say something? Cuz both of y' all said y' all didn't haven't said things.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Because the treasure say something. I was wondering. I didn't.
Lauren LaRosa
She played it off. She was giggling, trying to get through her segment.
Jess Hilarious
Uncomfortable. Because after a while, you. You seen, like, how he kept going, like. And Cam tried to ignore it a little bit and then.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, he tried to go along with it.
Jess Hilarious
At a point, he cut Cam off to make advances at her. Like, yeah, it's uncomfortable. It's weird. You know, I think. I don't really know.
Lauren LaRosa
I really think so. If you're working as, for instance, with us, if you're working as closely with us, I think you got to kind of just know. Know us. Because now we're telling you, like, we don't ever want to be the person. Like, yo, I'm uncomfortable. Yeah, Especially, like, you just don't know in the room what it turns into. So, yeah, you just got to kind of know sometimes. But I mean, I don't know. I would think. Just think if it was your daughter or your sister, what point would you let something get to without even knowing why? Like, if she can't say anything, what point would you let it get to before you just ask, hey, are you uncomfortable?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. That's what I'm saying. The lines get blurred in situations like this because a lot of things are interactive entertainment, right? Like, everybody's making content. Everybody thinks everybody in on the gag. But in, you know, when you in the real world, I think it's a little bit easier to. To recognize. Let's open up the phone lines. I want to talk to the ladies about this 1-800-585-1051. Like, when you're in the city. Can we play the clip again? Let's play the clip again if we have it.

Charlamagne Tha God
Remember on Minister Society when Kane had to pistol whip Chauncey because he wouldn't leave J.
Jess Hilarious
Yes, exactly.
Charlamagne Tha God
1,805-Hit-51051. What is the proper protocol in that situation when a woman is uncomfortable and wants a man to intervene? What is the proper way for that woman to know, even for a man? When do you know when they intervene? Yeah, let's Discuss. It's the world's most dangerous morning show. The Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans

LL Cool Bay, Lauren LaRosa is here, and we're having a conversation. Y' all brought it up. Y' all were talking about what happened on It Is what It Is with Cameron and Treasure Wilson and Adrian Broner. Can we play the clip?
Tesla Figaro
You look so good in person.
Lauren LaRosa
Thank you.
Jess Hilarious
Appreciate that.
Cameron
Hey.
Tesla Figaro
What?
Charlamagne Tha God
You wasted that. I love you.
Jess Hilarious
I'm sorry.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad, y'. All. My bad. Hey, stat. Could you stop smell?
Jess Hilarious

Cameron

Charlamagne Tha God
Just that. Oh, my God.
Marlon Wayans
Just that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Let's do the football.
Cameron
I guess I answered the question about Floyd. When I see. When I see. See you taking off some time, mesmerized by staff.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, bro, I did not know you.
Jess Hilarious
Looked that good in person.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad, bro. And it just got me to thinking, like, what is the proper protocol in that situation? Like, when a woman is uncomfortable and, you know, wants a man to intervene? Like, what is the proper way for a woman to say something? Because both of y' all said that when y' all have been in that situation, y' all haven't said something. And when does a man know how to intervene? Because seeing for Cam in that situation, that's easy because the boyfriend was there.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
So he's telling the dude, yo, stop disrespecting the boyfriend and stop disrespecting trust. And AB kept disrupting the show. Yeah, that's an easy call.
Jess Hilarious
Yes.
Lauren LaRosa
I will say there's been a time in here where I was uncomfortable. And when. I'm not gonna say when because I wanna. I don't want to put the person that was here on blast because I don't think they were doing it intentionally, but I wasn't comfortable.

DJ Envy
Boom from producer Jordan Peele. The horror event of the season is Universal Pictures Hymn, which hits theaters September 19th. Produced by Jordan Peele and directed by Justin Timber. Tipping him is a sports horror mashup and stars Marlon Wayans, who plays Isaiah White, the greatest football player of all time. Tyreek Withers plays Cameron Cade, an up and comer and protege. Cam gets the offer of a lifetime when he's called upon by Isiah to train at his compound. Things get weird fast as Isiah's training methods are a bit intense, Marlon Wayans is terrifying and Tyrek Withers proves he has what it takes to be the goat. Meeting your idols isn't all that is cracked up to be in him and begs the question, how far will you go? To be the greatest of all time, you have to be willing to sacrifice everything. Him hits theater September 19th. Once again, make sure you check out him in theaters September 19th.

Lauren LaRosa
And I text envy and was like hey. I was like I think I texted him was like what the f? And I was and he couldn't. He instantly knew what I meant, but I shot the Text because I wanted him to know. Just because I was quiet doesn't mean, like, I was okay. And he moved the conversation along.
Charlamagne Tha God
What they were saying to you, it.
Lauren LaRosa
Wasn'T like they weren't saying anything like, soup. I don't want to get into it, but I was uncomfortable. And I texted, this is it.
Jess Hilarious
I didn't want to say nothing.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, I mean, I don't. But I had to text Envy and let him know. But I felt like he felt it. But when I text him, it confirmed it for him because he didn't. I think he didn't want to. Like, he just didn't know whether he should say something or like, whatever. But he knew the conversation around. You were here, but you don't be paying attention sometimes to certain stuff.
Charlamagne Tha God
I ain't never heard nobody flirt with you. And I'm like, oh, my God, don't.
Jess Hilarious
Turn this into that. Don't do that, don't do that.
Lauren LaRosa
Because first of all, it was during the Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, I didn't see it.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, I had to. But I'm saying I said this to say I took the liberty to. To text Envy because I knew he would instantly know because he pays attention to, like, people's feelings and emotions very well.
Jess Hilarious
He's very much unlike you.
Lauren LaRosa
And he instantly knew what I meant, and he moved the conversation along. So that it, you know? Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Interesting. What about you, Jeff?
Jess Hilarious
I've never been. I've been in that situation, but I haven't been in a situation where a man was around that I wanted to take charge for me that I want. Wanted to step in and, you know, kind of be like, yo, chill.
Charlamagne Tha God
And it's very tricky with you because you got a mouth, you know what I'm saying? And you ain't gonna bite your tongue anyway. I know I can't see somebody making.
Jess Hilarious
You uncomfortable, but it was a big ass set, you know what I mean? It was like a big deal. And I was like, damn, I don't want to mess this up. I don't want to mess this up. It was like one of my biggest things that I've ever done. Biggest accolades for me. And I just didn't want to mess it up. I didn't want to. I didn't want to mess it up, yo. And I didn't want it to be like, oh, she's the reason that this ish went left. Like, oh, gosh. And then around that time, it was a bunch of, you know, women doing that.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, yeah.
Jess Hilarious
Coming out saying, oh, this person harassed me. This person, and then to the point where a lot of women weren't even believed. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, nah, I'm already, you know, being canceled every other week. Ain't gonna feel sorry, ain't gonna care. Think I'm lying. I just didn't want to be that person.
Charlamagne Tha God
I understand it happened. I'm tired, I'm sad. Both of y' all gotta go through that. But like I said, it's very tricky in environments like this because you don't know what's entertainment and what's not entertaining.
Lauren LaRosa
Like, I feel so bad for y' all because you have to kind of deal with it.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, you don't. You don't. But, I mean, I. You just don't know when a person is going along, right, with the. With the gag.
Jess Hilarious
I agree with that. You don't have to deal with it, but you do.
Marlon Wayans
Just don't.
Jess Hilarious
No, you don't want to be.
Lauren LaRosa
Like, you don't have to deal with it, but, like, you kind of do a little bit.
Charlamagne Tha God
It is very.
Lauren LaRosa
It's a weird nuance to have to.
Charlamagne Tha God
And I've seen situations where the person. The girl will go along with it and be saying wild stuff back to the guy, but then after. And then later say they was uncomfortable.
Jess Hilarious
But I'm like, but you was in here going, exactly.
Lauren LaRosa
You got to move it along.
Jess Hilarious
And that's.
Lauren LaRosa
I mean, I wouldn't do that, though. If I'm uncomfortable, I'mma get quiet.
Jess Hilarious
You're not going to go back.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm not going to go back and forth. If I'm uncomfortable, I get.
Charlamagne Tha God
If I saw you get quiet, I know something wrong.
Lauren LaRosa
That mouth of your times where I've gotten.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, let's go. Yeah, you know, let's go to the phones. Good morning. Who's this?
Caller/Listener
Hi.
Tesla Figaro
Good morning.
Caller/Listener
My name is Sarah, also known as Carla Jean.
Jess Hilarious
Good morning.
Charlamagne Tha God
Also known as what, man?
Caller/Listener
Hi. I actually, when I looked at the video, I kind of thought that she liked what was going on. She was laughing like crazy and she was flipping her hair. I thought she was very flirtatious, but.
Charlamagne Tha God
That'S what I mean. It could be her being uncomfortable. She could be being uncomfortable.
Caller/Listener
No, no. I think that as women, we need to take accountability. When you're not comfortable, you need to say. She should have said, hey, listen, my man is in the studio. I'm good. Thank you so much for the compliment, but let's carry on. Why didn't she do that? She didn't stop. She didn't do anything.
Charlamagne Tha God
How old are you?
Caller/Listener
41.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, she said you're OG compared to, you know, somebody like Treasure. Treasures in her 20s. And I'm even listening to Jess and Lauren talk this morning. They in their 30s, and they're saying it's not that easy like you.
Caller/Listener
Yeah, but who's supposed to teach them to understand that? You can. You are basically telling them, and you're giving him all the signs to keep going. She was laughing, she was flirtatious. She flipped her hair a ton of times. She was smiling from ear to ear.
Jess Hilarious
I understand what you're saying. Yes, but no, I do agree with you. All right?
Charlamagne Tha God
That's why I be staying out. You see, I'm saying I'm sitting there trying to come. Come to the defensive women here. Come with this one woman talking about. No, she deserved it.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, Martin, real quick.
Jess Hilarious
He was like, Jesus.
Charlamagne Tha God
1-800-585-1051. Call up right now. Tell us, what is the proper protocol in a situation when a woman is uncomfortable and wants a man to intervene? What is the proper way for a woman to say something? And when does a man know how to intervene? It's the world's most dangerous morning. The Breakfast Club.
Marlon Wayans
The Breakfast Club. If y' all talking about it, you.
Charlamagne Tha God
Know we talking about it.
Marlon Wayans
It's topic time.
Charlamagne Tha God
Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club. Yep. It's the world's most dangerous morning show. The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne the God, Jess. Hilarious DJ envious off today. Lauren LaRosa is in, and we were talking about It Is what It Is show. And Adrian Broner was on It Is what It Is show with Cameron and Trezor Wilson, but they had Adrian Bron on, and Cam had to kick Adrian Br out of the studio. Let's listen.
Tesla Figaro
You look so good in person.
Lauren LaRosa
Thank you.
Jess Hilarious
I appreciate that.
Cameron
Hey.
Charlamagne Tha God
What? You wasted that. I love you. What a God.
Jess Hilarious
I'm sorry.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm. My bad joke, y'. All. My bad. Hey, Stack, could you stop sm.
Jess Hilarious
Can you stop smiling?
Charlamagne Tha God
You.
Cameron
Yo, yo, bro. Some, we got to. Oh, I told you that.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad.
Cameron
Okay, we can move on the football.
Charlamagne Tha God
Just that. Oh, my God.
Marlon Wayans
Just that.
Cameron
Let's do the football. I guess that answer the question about Floyd. When I see. When I see you taking off some.
Jess Hilarious
Time, mesmerized by st. Yeah, bro, I did not know you looked that good in person.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad, bro. So it just got us to talking like, you know, what is the proper protocol in that situation when a woman is uncomfortable and wants a man to intervene. Because, you know, Lauren and Jess both brought it to my attention this morning that a lot of times women just eat it.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
And you know what? I do agree with something you said earlier, Shaw. I do think that, you know, now that we've been, you know, women, I say we because I'm a woman as well. Like, we've been going through this, and we see that it can be a problem, you know? Yeah, definitely do speak up, you know, because you can't always depend on a man to step in, especially if that man ain't your man. You know what I mean? And then, like you said, it can get very blurred in environments like this. So at work, you know, you never know. You know? So I do think I do want to encourage women to actually say something. Don't even worry about how you're going to look. Don't worry about if it makes you uncomfortable.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
Don't smile. Don't even try to play it off and be phony. I don't even. That's not our job to do that. I disagree with the last call.
Charlamagne Tha God
We.
Jess Hilarious
We shouldn't do that. It's not a man's job to step in. Now. They should, you know, if they see a woman is uncomfortable. But if you the one that's not comfortable, you gotta say something, too.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. And sometimes it takes something just as simple as, y' all don't talk to me like that. Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
It don't gotta be.
Lauren LaRosa
But see, here's the nuance, because sometimes it's not disrespectful or it's not, like, overly. It's just like, hey, I'm not comfortable. Like, you're doing a little bit too much. But it don't even gotta be like, a dis. Like, I didn't feel. In my situation, I didn't feel disrespected. I was just like. Like, this is awkward. I don't feel, like, comfortable. Can we switch gears?
Jess Hilarious
Right? Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Like, it's not always like that.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Another thing, too, is sometimes you don't want to put the men in your life in a situation. So you don't say things about things because you don't want them reacting in a way that can lead to something. Like, you just wanted to. Like, you just want to move on.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
And in my situation, I actually did. Did say something. It's funny that Charlemagne say, oh, you got mouth. I do A walked in my dressing room. I was getting dressed. You know what I'm saying? Drunk walked in, and I'M like, yo, if you don't get the audit, you know, I did bark, but. And it was like, all right, yo, my bad. But still, that still wasn't okay. You know what I'm saying?
Charlamagne Tha God
It wasn't okay for him to walk in your dressing room.
Jess Hilarious
It wasn't okay for him to do that. So, yeah, I should have said something. But, like, then I was like, no, this is my first big break. Like, real, real big break.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, you mean, like, you should have reported it to Higher.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah. Instead of just being okay with me barking. Because. Because he never tried nothing else. But it was just like, damn, it could have. You know, I felt like I handled myself, but I was supposed to say something, you know, just in case he did it again or whatever, so. Because he felt very powerful.
Lauren LaRosa
And navigating the world as a woman is. It's a. It's a dual sport.
Jess Hilarious
Definitely.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Let's go to the phones. Good morning. Who's this?
Caller/Listener
Big B.
Charlamagne Tha God
Big B.
Caller/Listener
What's happening with it?
Charlamagne Tha God
What's up? Talk to me, man. As a man, like, when do you know when to intervene? Seen in a situation where a woman is uncomfortable, man, you always gotta read that room.
Caller/Listener
But it's more or less when you see her awkward last, head down, not making eye contact, all that, like, macini. He tried to intervene and deflect the whole thing, and buddy came right back. He was really out of pocket.
Charlamagne Tha God
You mean Cam saw it?
Caller/Listener
Not well, Mace, he tried to ask the young lady that was on the other screen. Is that a real background? You feel me?
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, maybe I cut that out. Okay. Yeah.
Caller/Listener
So, you know, I mean, he called it, but then, Mace, I mean, Cam, he picked back up on it and he stopped it. But Adrian Broner, he's the clown.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, absolutely, I agree.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, thank you for calling, brother. All right. Well, yeah, if you. If you. I feel like, you know, women should say something. I understand, you know, why y' all feel like y' all can't. But you should say something.
Jess Hilarious
I agree with.
Lauren LaRosa
Hopefully.
Jess Hilarious
Definitely.
Charlamagne Tha God
I need to know. You gotta tell me who this person was off the head.
Lauren LaRosa
I know, but it wasn't that, like, don't make it a thing.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm not gonna make it a thing. I just want to know why would he think you cute? But that's a whole other conversation.
Jess Hilarious
Oh, my God.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, tell me, because I think multiple times and multiple. I'm tired of.
Charlamagne Tha God
I ain't see all that. Now you putting some sauce on it.
Lauren LaRosa
I am fine.
Charlamagne Tha God
I a see.
Lauren LaRosa
And when you be downplaying it. It be. It be like. It'd be like when they see me in person, it'd be like, go up, don't it.
Charlamagne Tha God
Boom.
Jess Hilarious
Like, I don't.
Lauren LaRosa
Luckily, I'm off the streets now. You know what I'm saying?
Jess Hilarious
But two be acting like danger. And bro, when they see you.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, my. Stuttering. Just stupid. Just, you know, thanks. That's how they be.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's time for the lace with Lauren. Lauren becoming a straight thing. She gets him from somebody that knows somebody. Some details.

She says her parents don't even know yet. Let's take a listen to that. I haven't even told my parents.
Jess Hilarious
No way, Cardi.

Tesla Figaro
Much fun, and now I'm here, and.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, we're very excited.

We're having fun all the time.
Jess Hilarious
And you're both happy about it?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, the parents already know. Don't Dominican women dream of plantings or something and when they pregnant?
Jess Hilarious
Huh?
Lauren LaRosa
That is.
Jess Hilarious
Yo, you are the most prejudiced person. Yes, it is.
Lauren LaRosa
Moms and grandmas just be knowing in.
Jess Hilarious
General they be dreaming of stuff. It's just fish. Like, that's the saying when you dream of fish, somebody.
Lauren LaRosa
Black women do that too.
Charlamagne Tha God
Black women dream of fish.
Jess Hilarious
Not planting empanadas.
Charlamagne Tha God
I mean. I mean, plantings. That's not true. Is even worse.
Lauren LaRosa
Jess, what happened? When did anybody dream of any, like, a taco or anything?
Jess Hilarious
What?
Charlamagne Tha God
No.
Jess Hilarious
No, no. There was no tacos in the drink.
Charlamagne Tha God
What if it was a fish taco?
Jess Hilarious
You're a clown. You're a clown. But no, that's like the saying that all black moms drink. And look, the saying is just pray your mom know before you, like, tell her. My mother definitely probably know it then. I. If I'm not mistaken, Cardi is close with her mom, so.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, as well.
Jess Hilarious
Her mother knew.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
I feel like Cardi has really changed the mindset of women in entertainment in regards to having kids. You know, there was a time and it was like, yeah, you can't have kids and have a career. But Cardi, like, bump that. I'm popping them out, man.
Jess Hilarious
Every time. Like, it's like a rollout for her baby. She all remember she was performing with the baby. Like, she's able to do any and everything pregnant.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Jess Hilarious
So I think she makes it look good. She works pregnant, everything.
Lauren LaRosa
Yep. And she talked about when she was pregnant with. With culture with her first daughter, that she was nervous because she was in the midst of her career. People were telling her, like, hold on, wait, what's happening? But she proved the wrong, and she's been able to continuously stay Cardi b. While having her every baby.
Jess Hilarious
That girl has worked.
Charlamagne Tha God
And y' all better not judge her, because you don't judge Nick Cannon. You don't judge Elon Musk. You don't judge none of these people.
Jess Hilarious
We do judge Cannon. Annie Law Mind. I'm not gonna judge Cardi.
Charlamagne Tha God
But, yeah, I judge both of them. Who did she reveal that on? Who? Who's that?
Lauren LaRosa

And this is when Bodak yellow had just came out. And at some point in the party, Gail said to me, so, what do we think of Cardi B? And I was like, oh, I love Cardi. You know what I'm saying? That's the homie. And Gail just yelled out, I don't have with you. Oh, my God, Gail. Yes.
