Angela Yee
And the thing is the daughters wasn't even there.
Charlamagne Tha God
It was just me by myself.
DJ Envy

Charlamagne Tha God
The crazy thing is they flipped the coin and he picked tails and landed on tails. He lied to his daughter and Told her it was heads just so he could put on that goddamn Barbie dress and that makeup, by the way, I am not judging you, okay? I am. I support you 100%. All right, but in all your endeavors,
DJ Envy

Charlamagne Tha God
I don't put the clothes on.
DJ Envy
I didn't put no clothes on. Stop.
Charlamagne Tha God
On the Barbie doll. On the Barbie doll.
DJ Envy
I didn't get that. You know what? That's not a showcase. I hate this place. Yes. We got front page news coming up. And also get it off your chest, 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, maybe you got a co worker that always pisses you off and you just want to slander them this morning, whatever it may be.
Charlamagne Tha God
And we got donkey of the day later at 8 o' clock and. Yeah. Oh, and just fixed my mess today as well.
DJ Envy
Yes, but get on the phone lines right now. 800-585-1051.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, and I want y' all to get in the hab. You know, just staying on the phone lines. Even though the phone lines are always ringing. Yes, because, you know, we go live on Netflix June 1st.
DJ Envy
That's right.
Charlamagne Tha God
And behind the scenes, when we're. We're not on air, we're still going to be on air.
DJ Envy
We're going to be live on Netflix.
Charlamagne Tha God
So. So the show never stops.
DJ Envy
That's right.
Charlamagne Tha God
So continuous.
DJ Envy
So when we play music traditionally and when we have commercials, we will be live on Netflix and we'll still be talking to you guys behind the scenes.
Charlamagne Tha God
All the behind the scenes conversations you'll hear on Netflix. It's a disaster waiting to happen in real time. It's a disaster waiting to happen.
DJ Envy
All right, well, let's get in some front page news next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. All right. All right. Let's get in some front news. All right. Now, tonight, the San Antonio spurs takes on okc. Right now, the series. It says the series is tied. But isn't OKC up one game?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, it's three two.
DJ Envy
It's three two.
Charlamagne Tha God
Y' all better hope that the spurs win tonight. Knicks. Okay, you need, you need. I want.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
You want this series to go 7?
DJ Envy
I prefer to play the spurs in OKC.
Charlamagne Tha God
I think.
DJ Envy
I think with me, I'm on limited minutes. And once he's out the game, the spurs don't have the, the steam that they need. So I'd rather play dispersed okc. But we'll see what's up, Mimi?
News Reporter
Good morning. Y' all, how you doing this morning?
DJ Envy
Good.
News Reporter
Good morning. Okay, so we start with Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullen. He is floating a controversial new idea that could impact air travel in some of America's biggest cities. So after those protests that have been going on outside the ICE Detention center in New Jersey, Mullen says the Trump administration is now considering stopping the process of some international flights in what he calls sanctuary cities. Now, this threat comes as tensions continue to rise outside the Delaney hall in Newark. That's where hundreds of immigrants have now reportedly been on a hunger strike for at least a week. Inside of that, they are focusing on the conditions inside the facility. Mullen, he went on Fox News and he suggested that cities who do not fully cooperate with federal immigration enforcement, maybe they should not receive international flights. This is what he means by that. Let's listen.
DJ Envy
Some of these cities have international airports. If they're a sanctuary city, should they really be processing customs into their city? Seriously, if they're a sanctuary city and they're receiving international flights and we're asking them to partner with us at the airport, but once they walk out of the airport, they're not going to force immigration policy. Maybe we needed to have a really hard look at that because we need to focus on cities that want to work with us. So you're saying that big cities that are sanctuary cities that have a big
Charlamagne Tha God
airport, they might lose their customs?
DJ Envy
Well, I'm saying we're going to have to start prioritizing things at some point right now. Remember, the Democrats are wanting to defund
Charlamagne Tha God
custom and Border Patrol.
DJ Envy
So I'm going to have to be forced to make hard decisions. Who's willing to work with us and partner with us.
Charlamagne Tha God
So this, this means we won't be able to fly in and out of
DJ Envy
the country in the sanctuary cities? Possibly, yeah.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
News Reporter
So that would be like airports like laf, jfk, Newark, Portland, Dallas, all of those.
DJ Envy
The biggest cities. Those are the biggest when it comes to international.
Caller/Guest
Right.
DJ Envy
That makes no sense.
News Reporter
That's exactly what that's saying. And President Trump is also weighing in on what is happening in Newark. I believe we have that sound as well.
DJ Envy
We have killers, we have guys that have murdered numerous people in there, and these are the people they're trying to protect. There's nobody that runs a facility like we do.
News Reporter
Well, let's, you know, that's up for debate. But according to the Atlantic, Mullen, he recently told airlines and air travel executives that he may start pulling back some of that staffing at those airports in those cities that we were just talking about. Because of their limited federal cooperation. So what does that mean for you? If airports do not have enough staff, enough federal staff to process those international flights, you could face delays, cancellations, or rerouting altogether, which is, of course, going to create ripple effects for vacation, business, travel, tourism, local economies. And so think about it like this. They're saying that if you're flying into lax, if you're flying into JFK and there aren't enough cbt, cpt, Custom Border and Patrol Officers, okay, to process passengers, your flight could either sit on the tarmac for hours or get rerouted to a whole other airport.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, is this just coming in? Are we. Are we able to get out with these? Or is this coming.
News Reporter
You can get out, but it's coming in because basically they're saying that if you're not gonna. They're saying if you're not gonna process these passengers, if you're not gonna let us know that you have maybe someone who is an illegal alien or a criminal on your flight, we're not going to allow you to process them into the United States.
DJ Envy
Well, that's the thing. I don't. I don. You know, I've been traveling a lot recently, going out of the country. And when I go to a lot of these countries, I feel like their software and their programming of getting through customs is a lot more detailed than the US Right. Even when I went to Mexico a couple of weeks ago, I mean, you have to go through eye scanning and fingerprinting right then and there. There's no agent. You go through eye scanning, they scan your eyes, they match you with your things, so they see exactly what happens. And if there is something foul on your passport or foul in your background history, they pull you to the side immediately. Absolutely. So I don't know why. And when I was coming back here to America, we don't have that. The software wasn't working. I had to speak to an agent. The agent had to talk to me.
Charlamagne Tha God
So it does make sense because you're Dominican, so you go to Mexico, they think that you fit right in. Once you get back here, I can see why they would give you more problems, especially in this current climate. Envy, come on, cut it out.
Angela Yee
Sorry.
Charlamagne Tha God
You look like ice. Most. You look like ice. Most Wanted right now, shut up a little bit.
News Reporter
But to your point, Envy, I see what you're saying. And so a lot of the work here in LA, or even in the US is more legwork than you would have overseas. And so I guess the secretary is saying that if you're not going to help us process some of these criminals or some of these people that we're looking for, we're just not going to fly them into your city altogether. He did not really quickly give a timeline of when this could happen, but the Atlantic is reporting that this could happen after the FIFA World cup this summer. They want to wait perhaps until that is over.
DJ Envy
They're not messing up that money.
Charlamagne Tha God
They, I mean that's, that's also good because people got some on vacation plans too. So don't mess up. People vacation. I've never met an administration that has helped on making people's lives miserable. I mean, every single day they wake up like what can you, can we do kiss off the American people and make people's lives more difficult?
News Reporter
Absolutely. All right, well, coming up at 7, we're going to talk about Jill Biden and her husband Joe Biden and what she's saying this morning. That is questioning what some people think they already knew. But she's answering those questions for us this morning.
DJ Envy
All right, and everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is your time to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast club.
Caller/Guest
Hello?
Charlamagne Tha God
Who's this?
Caller/Guest
Yo, this smooth jazz from the port. What is going on? Breakfast club Jazz?
Charlamagne Tha God
You don't even know how to play no jazz. You don't play no saxophone, no nothing.
Caller/Guest
You know, I've always wanted to learn though.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay, how'd you get the name?
Caller/Guest
Oh, you want to know how I got my name?
Charlamagne Tha God

Angela Yee
Oh, wow, that's nice.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, that's fire.
Angela Yee
Yeah, that is.
Caller/Guest
Thank you. Thank you. But I wanted to talk about. I seen the supreme court ruled being homeless as illegal and sleeping in your car. You up for that? I just wanted you for clarification.
DJ Envy
Yeah, I just looked it up. It just said that while it is not illegal to simply be homeless, the vast majority of U. S. States and cities have laws that criminalize life sustaining activities for unhousehold individuals like sleeping, camping, sitting or assisting anything in public places. So I guess it's not illegal. But you can't.
Angela Yee
You ain't supposed to be.
DJ Envy
You ain't supposed to be there, right? I guess so. I guess, I don't know.
Charlamagne Tha God
Are you talking about. Are you talking about them anti camping laws?
Caller/Guest
Oh, well, I. I just seen homeless from the video that I've seen. There wasn't no politicians or nothing like that.
Charlamagne Tha God
It was some.
Caller/Guest
Some dude doing the video. But I just want to get clarification for myself.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
DJ Envy
Saying the Supreme Court ruled in 2024 that cities could enforce bans on public camping.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, that was the anti camping.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
If.
DJ Envy
Even if there are available shelters. So I guess if you put up a tent, you're a home person. You put up a tent. I guess they call it camping. I don't know.
Charlamagne Tha God
But I'm not confirming what you saw on Instagram or YouTube though. Yeah, I don't know. I just remember those anti camper laws from a couple years ago.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
DJ Envy
But I'm not 100% sure that was Google and Chad GPT.
Charlamagne Tha God
I remember I hated that name. Like, why is that? They not camping.
Angela Yee
They homeless.
Charlamagne Tha God
Camping is fun, you know.

Charlamagne Tha God
You might be confused. And I wish they would stop doing this. I've already asked them to stop doing this business. They keep putting the topics in the interview playlist thing. So it's confusing.

For those of us in our 50s, back in the day, when we was in our 20s and 30s, that we were heavy drinkers, constantly taking Tums roll late, and they got a call, you might want to get that checked out. So I'm calling in regards to that. The cancer did move over to my bone. I found that out yesterday.
Charlamagne Tha God
Jesus.

DJ Envy
We put probably billions of dollars into cancer research and the fact that they still haven't found an exact cure.
Charlamagne Tha God
There ain't no money in the cure. The money's in the treatment, which is.
Caller/Guest
Is sad.
Angela Yee

You did it.

Good morning.
Charlamagne Tha God
Your talk Ll cool.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. I'm not dumbing myself down. I'm being myself.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sources trust.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything and everybody. Little brown girls look at you, you
Angela Yee
and go, I want to be like you.
Caller/Guest
Take me through that.
Lauren LaRosa
Take me through there.
Charlamagne Tha God
The latest with.
DJ Envy
Talk to Me.
Lauren LaRosa
All right, y'.
Charlamagne Tha God
All.
Lauren LaRosa
So yesterday, Gayle King sat down with Call Her Daddy the podcast, and they talked a lot about her personal life. Now, one of the things that she clears up in this interview is that her and Oprah do not have a romantic relationship. Let's take a listen.
Amazon Health AI Voice
People have made comments that they are like, there's no way this isn't a romantic relationship.
DJ Envy
I know.
Gayle King
It used to really bother me. I was recently divorced. And there was. The National Enquirer did a story about that's the reason for the divorce, because they're secretly gay. Number one. If we were gay, we would tell you because believe me, there's nothing wrong with it. It's just, I prefer a man. And then I would say to her, you've got to say something on your show. Because it's hard enough for me to get a date on a Saturday night and now people think I'm a lesbian. You've got to say something. She said, no, just leave it alone. Even today, there's still people that say, well, you know, the truth is, I don't care. I've now gotten to the point in my life that very few things get to me. Because, you know, when you go on social media, it is an accelerator on hate. As long as I feel good about what I'm doing, the people I respect and trust are okay with it. Otherwise, you'll drive yourself nuts.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know, it's interesting, though, where did that come from? Cause I even think about that back in the day when people would say things like that, like, what about Gail and Oprah made people think that they were a couple?
DJ Envy
I think it was the fact that Oprah does. Didn't have a husband.
Charlamagne Tha God
She had stuff.
DJ Envy
Steadman was just a. Just a kind of figure.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Decoy.
DJ Envy
But they said, yeah, I don't know if that's A beard? Yeah, but just a decoy.
Charlamagne Tha God
But I think that was sexy. Decoy.
DJ Envy
I didn't say anything.
Charlamagne Tha God
Crazy human. It was a decoy.
DJ Envy
But, you know, but the fact that Oprah, she was never seen dating, she never had a husband. People just assumed.
Angela Yee
But that doesn't mean that Gail. That, you know, she was humming on Gail.
Lauren LaRosa
It's because of how close they are, too. Like, they do everything together. Like, Gail talks about it, but. But Gail talks about it in this interview that, like, for some reason, they're super close relationship. People act like they've never seen it. But she says at one point, because they're coming up on, like, decades of friendship, Oprah was like, let's have a friendship party and stuff like that. People would pick up and the tabloids would be, like, Asking me if y' all are really.
Charlamagne Tha God
But that's because envy has a reputation to be.
DJ Envy
No, envy does not have reputation because you have a reputation.
Charlamagne Tha God
Since the 90s started early. Yes.
DJ Envy
Dizzy Van Winkle.
Charlamagne Tha God
By the way, you can't spell Gail without gay.
Angela Yee
I was going to say it could be the spelling of her name. G, A, Y, L, E. She is the only one to spell it like that. Gay L. She's the only one.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, Gail, she mentioned her divorce in that clip. She was married for 11 years to attorney William Bumpus.
Charlamagne Tha God
Bumpus, picture. I need to see this.
Lauren LaRosa
I will show Lucky. Two children together. And that marriage ended when she found him with her best friend. Let's take a listen to Oprah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Best friend.
Lauren LaRosa
Not Oprah, another best friend.
Charlamagne Tha God
Looks like his last name is Bump.
Lauren LaRosa
Kiss. Let's take a listen to the story of Gail's ex cheating.
Amazon Health AI Voice
Can you take me to that day? Like, how did you walk in on that?
Gayle King
Well, this was back in the day. I used to drive myself to the airport, and the airline would call you to say, listen, your flight has been canceled, but if you get on the next one, you can get out of there. So I got. I was in D.C. i'd driven myself to the airport. So I didn't even have time to call and say, look, the flight was, da, da, da, da, da. I'm coming home. Got to the airport, got in the car, came home. The alarm was set, which I thought, that's strange. And next thing I know, he comes flying out of the room, and he's got a towel on. He goes, you can't come in. What do you mean you can't?
News Reporter
I can't come in.
Gayle King
Someone's here I go, Someone like who?
Angela Yee
Get out of the way.
Gayle King
Billy, there's nobody here. He goes, really, you can't come in. And so I start searching the house because I didn't believe him. I get down, and there they are. Or there she is, cowering behind the door, her in my towel. I said, I can't believe that you are here and that you are doing this.
Amazon Health AI Voice
She was your friend?
Angela Yee
Yes.
Gayle King
And I even said I thought we were friends. It sounded so pitiful.
Charlamagne Tha God
What an idiot, right?
Angela Yee
Exactly.
Charlamagne Tha God
I need to see this woman he was cheating with. I understand. Men are ridiculous humans who mess up good things all the time, but I need to at least see what. What she looks like.
Angela Yee
Yeah, like best friend.
Lauren LaRosa
Now, listen, it gets even worse because he actually took. After this incident, he took Shorty home. Let's take a listen.
Amazon Health AI Voice
Your kids were in the house. How did you manage?
Gayle King
Well, I had a nanny. She was from Jamaica. Verge is with the kids. And I said, verge, take the children and go to the back room and shut the door. And she said, what is it? What is this, Mom? What is it? Let's give her a nice name. What's a good name?
Amazon Health AI Voice
Casey.
Gayle King
Yeah, Casey is here. And I said, and they're naked. She goes, lord have his mercy, mom, she peed in your toilet, Mom. I go, I don't need that right now. And she was married. And I said, I'm calling him her husband. And he goes, don't call because they have a good marriage. They have a good marriage. The girl's pajama bottoms are in my bed. And so he said, please don't call. So he goes, I'm gonna take her to the train station so her husband can pick her up so he won't know. So they left and went to the train station. I called Oprah. Oprah goes, wait, let me get this straight. He left you there alone and went with her. And she said, oh, girl, you don't even know how bad this is, baby.
Lauren LaRosa
His name is William Franklin Bumpy.
Charlamagne Tha God
He looked like a Bumpus.
Angela Yee
He looked like Franklin.
Lauren LaRosa
All these years later, he is still apologizing. He should be.
Angela Yee
He gave his kids in the house.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, she came home with the kids.
DJ Envy
The kids old?
Angela Yee
Yes, but not you. Going take her to the train station so her husband won't find out. And she got a good marriage.
Lauren LaRosa
Gail actually ended up reaching out to this woman's husband. And the husband was like, oh, she told me you would call. You're delusional. Like, he made Gail seem like she was crazy.
Charlamagne Tha God
He's still apologizing.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. So he gave TMZ A statement last night after this picked up pretty big. He said, my deepest apologies to Gail, our daughter Kirby, her husband and their son and their three grand and his three grandchildren for the pain I caused decades ago. Those actions were mine. I've long ago owned them, including publicly in my own words in 2016, which still stands. He then says, Gail has every right to share what was painful in that chapter that changed the trajectory of our marriage and our family nearly 40 years ago. So I respect her right to tell the story and that's where I'll leave it. He also talks about how he's endlessly grateful to her because of their two children, which are the greatest gifts of their of his life. And he says that Gail chose to co parent with him and she did it very successfully from the beginning, which is a testament to their shared commitment to their children. Nearly four decades later later, that commitment only has deepened and Gail and I remain in a good space.
Charlamagne Tha God
I know he regrets that. And ladies, let this be a lesson to you, man. Whenever you, you know, leave a situation, just keep glowing up.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Because one of my favorite things to witness in life is Gayle King in person. Let me tell you something about Gayle King. Every time I'm around her in person, it is a very pleasant experience. I saw her at Stephen Colbert's wrap party last week. Ms. Gayle King is incredible. Okay, that's a. That's a. That's a. That's a brick house. I mean gayle about 5, 10. Miguel just.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
She's amazing.
Angela Yee
She like that.
Charlamagne Tha God
That think like a kindergarten pencil.
Angela Yee
Respectfully.
Charlamagne Tha God
Respectfully. Respectfully.
Angela Yee
You like that, Ms. King. You know what I'm saying? I ain't going to do you like
DJ Envy

Angela Yee
I'm representing for the.
Gayle King

DJ Envy
But Chris, you better get up.
Charlamagne Tha God
Chris. But not only, not only is Gail Beautiful at 71 years old, she's fun.
Lauren LaRosa

Charlamagne Tha God
She's a. She's smart, she's fun, she's successful. That's one of them ones you going. If you, if you're a man, you kicking yourself in the ass. Whatever. Like man messed that.
DJ Envy
I will say though what he did with some grown manish too. The fact that he's taking everything. He's not saying anything negative. He's owning it. He's saying he apologized. After four decades, two kids, grandkids and all that you got. You got to salute him for that too.
Angela Yee
And validating that she is right.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Angela Yee
Sharing her story.
DJ Envy
He knows he effed up. He's Owning it. Yeah, most.
Angela Yee
Most.
DJ Envy
A lot of men wouldn't they be like, no, but you did this. And you did this. You was never home.
Angela Yee
I'm just upset because it happened so long ago. Like, yo, what we bringing it up for? What?
DJ Envy
Yo, that's a. That's a good topic that we should. We should dive into, though, right?
Angela Yee
Yeah, but don't be over there listening with us. Thank you.
Lauren LaRosa
I thought she was thinking about the last time you seen Gail. You sat there and just started going out in the days.
Charlamagne Tha God
I actually was.
DJ Envy
But we should talk. We should talk about that next hour. The fact that she walked in and she found her husband effing another chick in her bed.
Angela Yee
And it's her best friend and her
Lauren LaRosa
best friend, her kids called the lady aunt. Like, the kids heard the name and was like, oh, mom is aunt such and such.
Angela Yee
And even the nanny was like, well, she peed in your toilet.
DJ Envy
Jesus. That's how she said, open up the phone lines. 800-585-1105.
Charlamagne Tha God
Didn't wonder why auntie was in there screaming all the goddamn time. Why auntie always coming over here and then disappearing in the room screaming, what daddy in there doing with AI?
DJ Envy
The craziest way. You found out your spouse was cheating on you. 800-585-1051. That's the latest with Lauren. Thank you, Lauren.
Lauren LaRosa
You're welcome.
DJ Envy
We got front page news next, and then we'll take your calls. 800-585-1051 is the breakfast Club. Good morning, Lauren. What is wrong with you?

Angela Yee
clips for the second hour.
DJ Envy
Y' all go ahead in the mall and shop. I'm gonna stay close. I'mma find you. Morning, everybody. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news now. Tonight's okc, San Antonio Spurs. Of course, they lead the series three, two. Today's game six. I need the spurs to win.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, because you need the series to go seven because you want the Knicks to get more rest.
DJ Envy
Not only that, I would prefer the Knicks. My Knicks take on the Spurs. I prefer to play the spurs than the.
Angela Yee
Okay, Nbiyama.
DJ Envy
He's on limited minutes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Once he's out the game, he's on limited minutes.
DJ Envy
Yeah, he's on limited minutes, I guess for injury, but he's on limited minutes.
Charlamagne Tha God
I didn't know that.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Angela Yee
So that sound like phones back in the day.
Charlamagne Tha God
You heard that on 1010 wins limit minutes?
Caller/Guest
Nah.
DJ Envy
Well, I've been watching the series, but I'd rather play the spurs than okc, but.
Caller/Guest
Good morning.
Charlamagne Tha God
It ain't nothing easy over there. I didn't say it was easy. I like the Knicks chances regardless of who they play, but ain't nothing easy.
DJ Envy
I didn't say easy. I ain't saying nothing. Easy, easy.
News Reporter
All right. Speaking of the Knicks, we're going to get to them in a minute. But we start this hour with former first lady Jill Biden. She's opening up about the moment she says terrified her during the 2024 presidential election. And a new interview with CBS MORNING News. Jill Biden says she became alarmed watching President Biden's debate performance against Donald Trump. Let's listen to that.
Caller/Guest
I wasn't horrified. I was frightened because I had never ever seen Joe like that before. Or since. Never or since. Yes. Or since. Never seen him once again. Never. No. Why happened? I don't know what happened. I mean, when I, as I watched it, I thought, oh, my God, he's having a stroke. And it scared me to death.
Charlamagne Tha God
Not right now, Joe, Okay? Not right now. You just pissed me off, Joe. Okay. See, when we would say things like that, people would act like we were the worst people in the world.
DJ Envy
You crucified us.
Charlamagne Tha God
You got so mad, mad at us Americans in general when we used to look and see that something was clearly wrong and say things like, hey, maybe he needs to step down, somebody else can step up. But no, no, okay, they crucified us.
DJ Envy
They call us Maga love. As I said, it looked like he had it look at it like he had dementia. They said we were crazy, we were foul, we were disrespectful, concerned.
Charlamagne Tha God
I said verbatim on this Week ABC with John Carl that he should not debate President Trump. President Trump's going to make him look sad, silly. And I said that if he doesn't do well in the debate, he should probably drop out. And then now she talking about he went up there and looked like he had a scrap.
DJ Envy
We said the same thing and got attacked for weeks.
Charlamagne Tha God
Just another person. Well, that who participated in the COVID up of Joe Biden's deterioration. I don't want to hear it right now.
DJ Envy
Have we seen him? Where's he at now?
Charlamagne Tha God
I have no idea.
Angela Yee
Deteriorating some more
DJ Envy
recently.
News Reporter
I forget where I saw him at, but he did. He came out recently and said something. I got to remember what that was but, but the debate, this is the debate that quickly became a turning point in the election, so of course triggering growing concern inside the Democratic Party. And that's what eventually led to him stepping away from the race weeks later. And meanwhile, envy. President Trump says he may be heading to an NBA Finals game now that the New York Knicks are back in the championship for the first time in nearly 30 years. So he told reporters yesterday that he had hoped to catch a game early, but said the Knicks handled business too fast. Let's listen to what he had to say.
DJ Envy
No, I, I was invited to the, I was going to go on Wednesday, but they closed it out very quickly. Jim Dolan's great guy. He's, as you know, owns and in
Charlamagne Tha God
charge of Madison Square Garden. He's having a good year.
DJ Envy
Boy, what a team. They win all their games.
Charlamagne Tha God
They really, they have some great players.
DJ Envy
Players. I think I'll be going to one of the games. I was invited by numerous people and Jim and I think I'll be going. Great. Great to see it. The Knicks have really, they really suffered for years. What's your prediction doing right. They're doing right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now, question. If President Trump shows up to the game, does that make you feel like you're, you're safer or does it make you feel like you're in more danger? Because he's telling people, he's telling the ops where he might be. You know what I'm saying?
DJ Envy
There's gonna be so much security, so much Secret Service, so much police out there. You should feel safer. But New York is a different animal. They're gonna be booing him every second, every minute, every, every time they get a chance, they're gonna be booing the ish out of him.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know.
News Reporter
That's what I was thinking.
Charlamagne Tha God
He's from. I don't know. I really don't know.
DJ Envy
I mean, he's from New York, Queens
Charlamagne Tha God
originally, but I don't know if that's.
DJ Envy
He is a Nick fan, but it don't mean nothing. You're gonna feel safe. They're gonna have extra security, but they're gonna be booing the out of him.
Charlamagne Tha God
But don't they, don't the Secret Service got and everything. Doesn't it, doesn't him his presence being there make it more difficult for the
Angela Yee
everybody else that goes or anything too? I mean, even for the teams, like, how can they focus. It's gonna be a lot going on.
Charlamagne Tha God
I mean, he's not gonna be sitting courtside.
DJ Envy
He's gonna be in the he's gonna be swed.
Angela Yee
What about the audience? What if somebody tried?
Charlamagne Tha God
He thick, but he ain't no baddy. Nobody care about President Trump sitting courtside. If you can have your side chick sitting there with your wife, you and you ain't nervous, you fine with Trump.
Caller/Guest
Wow.
Okay.
DJ Envy
I don't. You know what? Whatever.
News Reporter
Yeah. They just said expect a lot more security and traffic outside the venue. Right.
Charlamagne Tha God
I got time for that.
Angela Yee
And just create a bunch of pandemonium.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what I'm saying. Like, you can't say that in New York. More traffic and more. There's already too much traffic at the end of that.
DJ Envy
Oh, my gosh. It's gonna be.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's gonna be. He shouldn't go to the game.
DJ Envy
It's gonna be thousands of people out there.
Charlamagne Tha God
He should think about everybody else that wants to go there and enjoy the experience and not have to deal with the extra traffic. Freaking extra. Like, no, don't do that about that.
DJ Envy
Yeah, he's definitely going to care.
News Reporter
He does not care about that. And speaking of Trump, there's a Trump Back concert series that's tied to America's 250th birthday celebration that is already facing major backlash online. And now at least two artists, they say they want no part of it. So the event is called the Great American Fair, and it's scheduled to take place this summer on the national mall in Washington D.C. of course, as part of that, that 250 Freedom Celebration, which is, I think Trump's 80th birthday, it all, you know, culminates around June 14th. The lineup, it includes artists like the Commodores, Flow Rider, Vanilla Ice, CNC Music Factory, Young mc, Milli Vanilli and Morris Day in the Times. So Morris Day, he is publicly now distancing himself from the event. He posted on Instagram. Contrary to rumors, Morse Day and the Time will not be performing at the Great American State Fair. And in the comments, he added, it's a no for me.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, that lineup sounded horrible. I mean, it went from. It went from like, oh,
Lauren LaRosa
Wait, wait, there's more.
News Reporter
It gets better. So rapper Young mc, he is also backing out. He posted online saying that the artist, they were allegedly never told about the political movement tied to the event. And he says that he hopes to perform in D.C. later at an event that's not so politically charged. And then CNC Music Factory, their frontman, Freedom Williams, he posted an emotional, profanity filled video saying he initially planned to back out too. But now he's saying that he may still Perform because he doesn't want critics telling him what he can and cannot do.
Angela Yee
So that's crazy. It's just like they just called anybody who answered the phone. Like, you know, ask anybody who answers the phone where they come in. And I thought, I don't know who Young MC is. I thought you must have made a mistake.
DJ Envy
My bad.
Angela Yee
I thought she was trying to say young and maybe, but she made a mistake and said young mc.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, no, no.
DJ Envy
I'll play the song for you, but when we get off here. You heard this song before. Okay. My dad is. Thank you so much. That's front page news now, Mimi, question.
News Reporter
Yes.
DJ Envy
Have you ever been cheated on?
Angela Yee
Damn.
Caller/Guest
Yeah.
DJ Envy
How'd you find out?
News Reporter
I'm nosy. So I think I. I probably probably looked in the phone somewhere, if I'm being honest, and found the picture and then confronted him about it.
Charlamagne Tha God
But, I mean, everybody been cheating on. You were being specific about. About.
DJ Envy
Well, that's what I'm about to talk to. The reason I'm talking. That's right. Yeah. So the question is. 800-585-1051. During the latest. Lawrence here you were talking about Gayle catching her husband cheating.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. She said she caught her ex husband cheating with her best friend in her own house.
DJ Envy
And she walked in on him.
Lauren LaRosa
She walked in on him. We have the audiences.
Amazon Health AI Voice
Can you take me to that day? Like, how did you walk in on.
Gayle King
Well, this was back in the day. I used to drive myself to the airport. The airline would call you to say, listen, your flight has been canceled, but if you get on the next one, you can get out of there. So I got. I was in D.C. i'd driven myself to the airport. So I didn't even have time to call and say, look, the flight was, da, da, da, da, da. I'm coming home. Got to the airport, got in the car, came home, the alarm was set, which I thought, that's strange. And next thing I know, he comes flying out of the room, and he's got a towel on. He goes, you can't come in. What do you mean you can't. I can't come in? Someone's here. I go, someone like who?
Angela Yee
Get out of the way, Billy.
Gayle King
There's nobody here. He goes, really, you can't come in? And so I start searching the house because I didn't believe him.
Caller/Guest
Him.
Gayle King
I get down and there they are. Or there she is, cowering behind the door in my towel. I said, I can't believe that you are here and that you are doing
Charlamagne Tha God
can we make this even more specific?
Caller/Guest
What?
Charlamagne Tha God
Have you ever been married and caught your spouse cheating on you in your house? That's crazy.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, like, that's insane.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, that's insanity to me. We talk about never selling no dope when you. When you rest that. Like, this is crazy.

Gayle King
You can't come in. And so I start searching the house because I didn't believe him. I get down and there they are. Or there she is, cowering behind the door in my towel. I said, I can't believe that you are here and that you are doing this.
Amazon Health AI Voice
She was your friend?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes.
Gayle King
And I even said I thought we were friends. It sounded so pitiful.
DJ Envy
All right, well, let's go to the phone lines.
Caller/Guest
We have.
DJ Envy
Is your name Beige?
Caller/Guest
It is.
DJ Envy
Hey, Beige.
Angela Yee
Good morning, Perry.
Caller/Guest
Yes. My mother named me that.
Charlamagne Tha God
And I bet you dark skin.
Angela Yee
Oh, my God.
Caller/Guest
Well, d. Yes.
Angela Yee
Okay, Mocha.
DJ Envy
So let's talk about it. You caught your husband cheating on you.
Gayle King
How.
DJ Envy
How'd you catch your husband? At the crib.
Caller/Guest
He started acting funny, and then he asked me for a separation. And then he started presenting my access to the house and removed my access to the camera. And then the last day that I had access to the house, I put back this back on my phone to see the camera. And then just one night, the notification went off, and they were walking up on the porch, and she was like, well, I don't want nobody to see me here. And he was like, well, nobody's watching. She had an overnight bag and a whole pillow. He went in, spent the night, and they came out the next day around 2pm Damn.
Lauren LaRosa
She brought her own pillow.
DJ Envy
She caught on the ring camera.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
I think this situation a little different, though, because. Because y' all kind of had separated. You know what I mean? I still wouldn't have had her in my house.
Caller/Guest
No, we hadn't. We hadn't separated. He asked me for a separation, but I had not left. He just started presenting my access to the house. Oh.
Angela Yee
So he. He basically.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Angela Yee
He asked you for a break. You said no.
Charlamagne Tha God
He did it anyway. He changed the locks.
DJ Envy
It's not funny.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's not funny. Y' all was separated.
Caller/Guest
Boo.
DJ Envy
I'm sorry, Mama.
Angela Yee
Just that she didn't agree with it, but he asked her so he wouldn't have to cheat on her.
DJ Envy
That's right.
Angela Yee
Pretty much.
DJ Envy
We have Cony on the line. Coney. Good morning.
Caller/Guest
Damn.
Good morning. And it's Connie.
DJ Envy
I'm sorry. Connie. Connie, you breathe so hard. Connie, what happened with you and your husband?
Charlamagne Tha God
Connie, what did she say?
Caller/Guest
Well, you know, it was three times. And I think back in the day, I'm a little bit older than y'.
All.
It's just pertaining to security. He was military. Career issues and things in that capacity. And it's just the capabilities, I believe, of knowing that you can get away with and do it and not be able to have consequences. So for me, it was more about family protection, I guess, that it kept repeating. But in the end, I think I got the victory and the kids got what they needed, and he still went on with the military career. But it can happen. It's hard to figure out that you work as hard as they work, and then you come home and there's some stranded person in your home, and you don't have A clue what's going on. And I do believe, because he was military and they let some things slide. We're not talking about just any random person, like Gail said her best friend. We talking about anybody popping up at your home because they had that access.
DJ Envy
So you walked in on him?
Caller/Guest
I walked in on him very young, in the beginning of our marriage. And I thought. Thought, okay. You know, with my time in life, my parents were like, things happen. Give it a chance. Move forward. You got goals.
Angela Yee
That's a good man.
Charlamagne Tha God
Savannah, when you walked in, did you let him finish?
DJ Envy
What?
Angela Yee
Oh, my gosh.
Shopify Spokesperson
Sorry.
Caller/Guest
No, I didn't let him finish. In fact, I had a gun, and I. I know that's.
Angela Yee
That's what we talking about.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, you shot through the top of the ceiling. Wow.
Caller/Guest
Oh, absolutely.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't blame you.
Angela Yee
And he had the nerve to do it again and again.
Caller/Guest
Again again. In fact, we went on a family trip.
Angela Yee
That's because.
Caller/Guest
And I found out the family trip wasn't geared toward the family trip. It was geared towards someone he met.
Angela Yee
See?
Charlamagne Tha God
Was it the same woman that he kept cheating with?
Caller/Guest
Absolutely not.
Angela Yee
So that's what she's saying. Just random people. Like, just being a family trip.
Lauren LaRosa
He took y'.
Caller/Guest
All.
Lauren LaRosa
He went to go link up with somebody. Like, he went there to really go see somebody, but took y' all to.
DJ Envy
Parked in the hotel room. Went to another room.
Caller/Guest
Absolutely.
Angela Yee
Girl, why you ain't shoot the damn gun? What? You got the gun.
DJ Envy
She shot the gun.
Charlamagne Tha God
Why? You said shoot him.
DJ Envy
You should have said, but, no, we don't wanna kill nobody.
Caller/Guest
We don't kill nobody. But we definitely set ourselves up for success later in life.
Charlamagne Tha God
There you go. That's what you gotta do. You gotta glow up after a man does you dirty like that. I don't understand men who do that, though. Like, why would you bring a woman to your house that you share with your wife and your family and cheat? That is, like, beyond reckless.
Lauren LaRosa
Some people get off on that.
Caller/Guest
It is. You know, after a couple of times, you begin to think, is it me? Is it the situation? What is it? And then I just learned that some men can just be cocky like that and think that, oh, they're not going nowhere, there's not gonna be any problems. But my not going nowhere had nothing to do with being in love with him anymore. It was about success. It was about setting my children up for success and moving them through. So by the time I was done, all four children had free college scholarships. College. And now they're very successful lawyers Dentists, IP specialists.
Charlamagne Tha God
All right, Love to hear it.
DJ Envy
Thank you so much for calling. I'm so sorry for that, too, Mama.
Angela Yee
She played along.
Caller/Guest
Oh, no, don't be sorry. I wasn't sorry about it. I just had to plan it better.
DJ Envy
Okay, well, thank you.
Angela Yee
And look, she probably had her little nigga on the side, too, like.
Caller/Guest
All right.
Angela Yee
I'm just waiting for my kids to get old enough so they can get all these benefits. Benefits?
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what you do? That's what I do.
DJ Envy
If you're just joining us, we're talking about an interview that Gail did. Break it down for us, Lauren.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, so Gayle King sat down with Alex over at the Call Her Daddy podcast, and they talked about Gayle King walking in on her ex husband cheating on her with her best friend.
Charlamagne Tha God

Charlamagne Tha God

Caller/Guest
I was like, contract married at the time.
Charlamagne Tha God
Listen to me. Let me tell you what the topic is. The topic is, have you ever walked in on your spouse cheating on you in your house? That is the topic. Contracted marriage, not no boom show.
Angela Yee
All right.
News Reporter
Boom.
Charlamagne Tha God
Boom.
Caller/Guest

Angela Yee

Caller/Guest
Good morning.
DJ Envy
Hey, Katie. Good, good, good. Hey, now you got a story how you caught your spouse cheating on you?
Caller/Guest
Yes. I used to work from home. I was married to a woman, and I Was. And some young lady hit my thing, and she said, check your inbox. So I went to the request inbox, and there was a video of my wife giving another man fellatio.
DJ Envy
Damn.
Angela Yee
A man.
Charlamagne Tha God
Wow. Is it cheating if she do it with a man?
Caller/Guest
Yes.
Angela Yee
Hell, yeah, it's cheating. And it's a crossover.
Lauren LaRosa
Crossover.
Caller/Guest
She was never gay.
Charlamagne Tha God
I mean, clearly she was gay.
State Farm Ad Voice
Oh, yeah.
Angela Yee
She's bisexual. You can't say.
DJ Envy
Well, why do you think that? You think she's with you for the money?
Lauren LaRosa
Something.
Caller/Guest
I don't know. Like, it was. There was, like, multiple incidents of her. Like, she know me was married. Like, even now that we're broken up,
she's never been with another woman outside of me, so.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, but let me ask you a question. Did y'.
DJ Envy
All.
Charlamagne Tha God
Did y' all have sexual relations with each other, you and her? They were married. So she was. So she was gay. She was bisexual.
Angela Yee
Right.
DJ Envy
Oh, your tongue game is just that nice.
Charlamagne Tha God
You.
DJ Envy
You had her effed up.
Caller/Guest
I wasn't sold on that, though. That was not the dream that I was sold.
I was.
So this is what they.
Is that, you know, just beautiful things that would not happen.
Charlamagne Tha God
So why didn't y' all talk about that, though? I mean, is that really a deal breaker in a. A lesbian relationship?
Caller/Guest
It wasn't a deal breaker necessarily, but my thing is just like, you know, this is something that you wanted. We could have discussed it, but for me to keep running into
other men and outside men was crazy for me.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. The dishonesty.
Angela Yee
Who was. Who was the stud, if you don't mind me asking, like, who was the most dominant. Dominant over there?
Caller/Guest
Well, I mean, I guess I would
say I was the most dominant, but
neither one of us was. We're both Sam.
Angela Yee
Oh, okay. Okay. Okay.
DJ Envy
Yeah, you can hear the feminine, but I wonder if. If her. If her spouse likes doing fellatio, I wonder if she would get the same experience of feeling from a strap.
Lauren LaRosa
You can't, though.
Caller/Guest
She doesn't really like the strap, so. I mean, I don't. I don't blame her on that. But, I mean, she. Again, these are not things that she ever said was an issue for her.
Charlamagne Tha God
So that was what Envy wanted to ask you. Was the scrap taste different from the real thing? That's what Envy really wanted.
DJ Envy
That was a stupid question.
Charlamagne Tha God
Fellatio, so what the hell they got to do with anything? Everyone know how it tastes?
DJ Envy
You know what I mean? Katie?
Caller/Guest
Well, I appreciate y' all for hearing my story, but. Yeah, I had to call for this One because I was like, okay, yeah, this is, this is a good time for me to call in on.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, we appreciate it.
Angela Yee
Thank you Katie. Appreciate it.
DJ Envy
Hello? Who's this?
Caller/Guest
My name is Shade.
DJ Envy
Hey Shade. Hey Shade. Have you. How did you find out your spouse was cheating on.
Caller/Guest
So I came home work from. I came home from work early with a nothing but God told me to go home from early. And we used to have the door locked, set up because our mask like the, the bar lock was a little shaky. So we had a way of where we would lock the door at night. When I came home he had that extra secure lock on. And I'm like, why is that? Why is it there? Soon as he heard me, he comes running down the stairs just like Gayle Kings are husband running down the stairs in a towel. And I'm like, what you doing? Huffing and puffing. And he's like oh, I was about to take a shower and I was doing laundry at the same time because we had the washer and dryer upstairs. So I'm like okay. But he's still like I'm trying to get upstairs. And he like nah, you can't go upstairs. And I'm like why? And he's like cuz I'm about to just take a shower now. The reason I came home was because something was wrong with my eye. I told you it was nothing, but God, I sneezed at work and got a bubble inside my eye. It didn't hurt nothing, but my manager was so concerned, he was like, nah, you gotta go home. So when, when I showed him my eye, he has me at the front door, he will not let me pass my front door. And then I happened to look at my couch and that girl jacket was on my couch. When I tell you I tried to cut both of them. I tried to cut both of them. And then mind you, people don't have to rest.
Angela Yee
Oh my God. Having his way, honey. Having his way.
Caller/Guest
Having his, having his complete way.
Lauren LaRosa
He get no powers outside.
DJ Envy
Yeah, that's Jess.
Angela Yee
Yeah, that's j. Hey girl, what's up?
Caller/Guest
Oh my God. Hey y Hey y Hey y. Oh my God, I can't believe I got through.
Charlamagne Tha God
I find it, I find it interesting that he was on house arrest. So I'm trying to figure out if I can see where he was coming from.
Caller/Guest
Out the house for church and for work. Okay, he left this girl at work.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's crazy.
Lauren LaRosa
He could have did that at work.
Caller/Guest
He, he was doing it at work. I found out later he was doing it at work.
Lauren LaRosa
Then he brought her home for seconds. Girl, I don't.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't understand being like this. I'm be honest with you.
Angela Yee
Smashing on house arrest. But she had to know that he had a wife, like.
Charlamagne Tha God
Or.
Caller/Guest
She met me. She met me and everything. I went to go. I used to go pick him up from work because. Because he was on health director. I always had to make sure I was at his job at a certain time to pick him up and everything. Everything.
Charlamagne Tha God
Hey, girl.
Lauren LaRosa
Telling you how pretty you are and all that, huh?
Charlamagne Tha God
Did you get to cut one, though? Or you just tried?
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Angela Yee
Did you?
Caller/Guest
No, I cut him because he stood in the way. He was like, nah, you not gonna hurt her. I said, oh, so you're defending her? I said, oh, both of y' all can get it. So I cut him. My wig came off, and I tried to fight her. And then the neighbors out there and everything.
DJ Envy
Are you Puerto Rican or Dominican?
Charlamagne Tha God
Now, what if when the came off, he would have said, see, that's why I be cheating right there. She got the wig off.
DJ Envy
The eye bubble, all that.
Charlamagne Tha God
You got your wig off in the eye bubble.
DJ Envy
How you expect not to cheat, right?
Caller/Guest
I was looking crazy. I was looking crazy.
Angela Yee
Did he go back to jail?
Caller/Guest
No shoes, a tank top, and a bubble in my eye.
Angela Yee
Did he go back to jail?
Caller/Guest
Yes, he did, because I took my name off his paperwork the very next day, and I was like, y' all got to take me off. But here's the thing, though. He was so blessed by God.
He.
We were doing so well where we were. They were like, you know what? You. You've been checking in on time. You've been going to work, no complaints. We're gonna take you off the bracelet until your trial. And I told him, I said, you're still getting blessed and don't even know it.
Charlamagne Tha God
Wow. Wow.
DJ Envy
Well, thank you. Thank you for sharing your story. Wow.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Angela Yee
I don't.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't. First of all, black men don't cheat. I don't think men should cheat parents, period. Okay, but if you cheat, why are you cheating in your house where you live out with your wife and family? If you need that type of rush, why don't you go on Fear Factor or American Ninja Warrior, right? Squid Games. Go do something else.
DJ Envy
Your own crib is crazy. That is crazy.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's insane.
DJ Envy
Especially. And especially if you got kids and family.
Angela Yee
But the house arrest shorty was wild.
Gayle King

Shopify Spokesperson
A lot of you ask how I actually run my business behind the scenes and honestly, really, Shopify is the reason it exists. For me, Shopify is the place where I took this little idea I had and turned it into a real business. It's the platform where I own everything. My store, my customers, my community. When I started my storefront, Shopify made it just so easy. With just a few clicks, I was ready to share my vision with the world. And the best part, Shopify literally gets my products everywhere. People, People Shop, Google, YouTube, Tick Tock, the Shop app, even Chat GPT. I still remember the first ever sale I made for my fashion brand. Embellished that little notification.

Angela Yee
The little brown girls look at you and go, I want to be like you.
Caller/Guest
Take me through that.
Lauren LaRosa
Take me through there.
Charlamagne Tha God
The latest with Lauren on the Breakfast Club. LL Cool baby, talk to me. Smell, smell eggy.
Angela Yee
Stop playing with me.
Charlamagne Tha God
Don't play with me.
Lauren LaRosa
Welcome back, Jesse.
Gayle King
Thank you.
Lauren LaRosa
You're welcome. All right, y'. All. So Gayle King. I'll call her daddy. We talked a bit about the craziest cheating situation that happened to her, but she talked about one of the most inappropriate work situations that happened to her as well that involve her behind. Let's take a listen.
Amazon Health AI Voice
You unfortunately have also had to deal with racism in your career. I remember when you interviewed Michelle Obama and you shared that while you were covering the super bowl, an executive made super inappropriate comments about about Your hair. How have you navigated those type of moments?
Gayle King
No, he said, interesting, because I wore it curly. And he said, oh, that's interesting. Or after I had a baby and I'm sitting, but you put on a couple of pounds and I came back to work. And you know how when you go into the boss's office, I wasn't looking at his papers, but when you see your name, it catches your eye and it said gail's butt. And then he said, yeah, but, you know, could I ask one thing? When you're sitting on the side, could you please sit closer in? Because your butt hangs over the chair and it would really. It can be distracting. No one can say that to you these days.
Angela Yee
Hell, no. If you got a fat ass, let it hang off the damn chair.
Lauren LaRosa
That's what I be doing.
Angela Yee
That's what you be doing, girl.
Charlamagne Tha God
What?
Angela Yee
Dragging that wagon around here? Yeah, but that's crazy that he said that to Gayle.
DJ Envy
What the hell are you talking about?
Charlamagne Tha God
Lauren, let her be delusional. It's okay. A girl can dream, Indy.
Angela Yee
All right, Let a girl.
Charlamagne Tha God
Girl can dream.
Lauren LaRosa
Girl be moving.
Angela Yee
Listen, but that's. That's crazy that he did say that. Like, how can you sit in a little bit? If she had a fat butt, then she.
Charlamagne Tha God
You ain't never see Gail King. You ain't never see Gayle King in person, man.
Angela Yee
No, but.
DJ Envy
What? Yo, you're slobbering right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
All I'm simply saying is there's no way. Even at 71, you can see it coming from the front.
Angela Yee
Right?
Charlamagne Tha God
Dropping the clues. Bombs for Gail King.
DJ Envy
That's what I'm saying.
Charlamagne Tha God
Some positive energy, love and light this morning, man.
Angela Yee
Better keep it light.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
DJ Envy
Your wife gonna smack you in the
Charlamagne Tha God
back of your head later on 71.
DJ Envy
What that mean?
Angela Yee
So you love older women and.
Charlamagne Tha God
When you get 71, you gonna want somebody to compliment you, too?
Caller/Guest
Damn right.
DJ Envy
Well, that's what you got a husband for. Tell him.
Angela Yee
Right, that's what I have a husband for.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, shifting gears, a big shout out to Gayle King in the interview. It was great. We learned a lot. So, speaking of things that may people are demon. Inappropriate, appropriate or not, we still talking about the Kevin Hart roast?
DJ Envy
Still?
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. Kevin Hart yesterday. Kevin Hart yesterday posted a clip from our interview talking about what he did and did not approve to take go take place at the roast. As far as the jokes, let's take a listen.
DJ Envy
Cheryl said. Well, Kevin, I don't know. They're saying that.
Angela Yee
I can't say this. I said, who's saying, sure, you're gonna do whatever you want.
DJ Envy
That's why you're here.
Charlamagne Tha God
They also said that you saw the jokes beforehand.
DJ Envy
Why am I reading jokes beforehand?
Charlamagne Tha God
So I can be in the chat.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, you in charge. So people think that everything falls back.
Angela Yee
You're not acting as a.
Charlamagne Tha God
As a no wall and do all
DJ Envy
at the top comedians. I need to see everything y' all doing before y'.
Charlamagne Tha God
All.
Angela Yee
That's not what comics do.
DJ Envy
So from Pete to Naim to Big J to Cheryl to Chelsea, Jeff Ross, Tony Shane. During the week of in la, you
Angela Yee
just saw people in the past, we
DJ Envy
were all at comedy clubs working on our. But hey, man, I want to see your.
Angela Yee
What time you going up?
DJ Envy
All right, I'm a good come back. We don't want to cheat that like
Angela Yee
you're taking away the fun of the
DJ Envy
rose to my point that I'm making to you.
Angela Yee
No, I didn't see nobody's jokes.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. So he. He captioned this by saying that people no longer care about the truth. He says, and we are living in crazy times. Truth no longer matters. And it's pretty funny. Nobody does research. Everyone just assumes and runs with the narrative of clickbait. Even when the proof is right in front of your face. Most will forever choose the lazy road of assumption. Even when I clearly see say that comics are comics and comics operate on their own. Nobody controls a comedians. Comedians do what a comedian. Oh, comedians do what they want and how they want is simple. The rules of being a comedian are understood by all comedians. And what I. I don't know if this is what he's referring to, but I'm assuming because he's not direct and I know he just talked about that, but there was a lot of conversation when he came up here after the Breakfast Club about what jokes were cut out. Like people are saying, hey, well, you were able to not do a trump joke that was supposed to be set up for Tony Hinchcliffe.
Charlamagne Tha God
Where they get that from?
Lauren LaRosa
Right. Well, I think people are confused it because Madison Sinclair, who was one of the writers and even one of Pete Davidson's writers came out about the jokes that didn't make it into the the roast. But from what I read and understood, these were jokes that were there that were proposition but just didn't do it. People are making it seem like they were cut from somewhere.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
But you can tell that, like, certain people will go up to the prompter and they'll be looking and they'll be like, I don't want to Say that.
Angela Yee
I don't want to say that.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't want to say that. And then some people are using the prompter. Some people aren't. Yeah, some people are doing both. Like, if you go look at, you know, somebody like Cheryl London would said, you can see she was doing both. She even told. Told you when she wasn't doing both.
DJ Envy
So the jokes weren't cut out of the special. This comedians just decided not to use those jokes. Correct.
Lauren LaRosa
That's how I understood it. I don't know.
DJ Envy
You're right.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, but you could. They literally would say when they were up there. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. And if you go actually read the jokes that were cut out, they were very light compared to what actually was in the room.
Lauren LaRosa
Kevin's like, yo, y' all mad at me? Why not Tony? And Tony has made remarks about the ropes that people are just acting like didn't happen.
Charlamagne Tha God
Did you hear what he said?
Lauren LaRosa
Let's take a look.
DJ Envy
The roast of Kevin Hart was something else, huh? It's the first time I've been called a Nazi multiple times in just a few hours. Guess the guy that pulls names out of a bucket, giving everybody an opportunity is a Nazi. Isn't that something? And the writers I used to work with, there's a few great writers in that writers room, and the rest of them are just living in a bubble of mental illness. And it's very exciting. I got called a Nazi, gay, a racist, over and over again. I'm none of those three things. A little fun fact, but they are fat, ugly, black, Jewish. Everything I said was real about them.
Charlamagne Tha God
Just a reminder now, why is he equating being black and Jewish with being a Nazi and racist? Being Jack, black and Jewish are not negative. So I don't understand why people don't have more smoke for Tony Hencliffe. Like, Kevin is right when he said he didn't tell the joke. And y' all are mad that Kevin didn't say nothing to Tony on stage. Y' all ain't saying nothing to Tony now, right?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, I think it's just the reporting. Like, certain places you read are saying, this was cut after live. This wasn't like. But he's saying that's not what happened. So we move on now.
DJ Envy
All right, well, that's the latest. Thank you, Lauren.
Lauren LaRosa
You're welcome, Charlemagne.
DJ Envy
Who giving that donkey to.
Charlamagne Tha God
I need former first lady of the United States of America Joe Biden to come to the front of the congregation. Okay. She's volunteering information that we don't need right now.
DJ Envy
All right, we'll get to that next. And also just fix my mess. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, get on the phone lines right now. Just to help you out. 800-585-1051. It's the breakfast Club. Good morning.
Charlamagne Tha God

They a really bad day for him
Charlamagne Tha God
and this is what he did.
Lauren LaRosa
And so we are in a state of emergency.
DJ Envy
Okay?
Charlamagne Tha God
White supremacist violence is always has been the number one threat to our society.
DJ Envy
But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
Charlamagne Tha God
The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Caller/Guest
All right, Charlene, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day?
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, donkey, Today for Thursday, May 28th goes the former first lady of the United States of America, Jill Biden. You know, I am a sick citizen. Citizen of America, okay? I just want the best for this country at all times. I could care less about political parties. I have voted nothing but Democrat all my life though. But what Jill Biden did is part of the reason that Democrats lost in 2024. Okay? Literally donkey of the day should go to Jill Biden. The Democratic Party. Biden's in a circle. The staff, the record label, the mother effing crew and everybody who spent years telling Americans not to believe their own eyes. Okay, see, Jill Biden will be appearing on CBS News Sunday morning, I believe, this weekend. And she just decided to tell us that when she watched the 2024 debate, she thought President Biden was having a stroke. Let's go to ABC News for the report, please.
Caller/Guest
This morning, Jill Biden opening up about her husband's infamous 2024 debate performance. I was frightened because I had never ever seen Joe like that before or since.
Charlamagne Tha God
She says she feared her then 81 year old husband.
Gayle King
Husband was experiencing a medical condition.
Caller/Guest
I don't know what happened. I mean, when I, as I watched it, I thought, oh my God, he's having a stroke. And it scared me to death. During the debate, Biden often paused, stuttered
Charlamagne Tha God
and spoke incoherently, making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the, with the COVID Excuse me, with dealers, with everything we have to do with. Look, if we finally beat Medicare less than a month later, he dropped out of the race. He Blamed his performance on being tired
News Reporter
from traveling before the debate.
Charlamagne Tha God
Not right now, okay, Jill. Not right now, all right? Inflation is through the roof. The price of gas and groceries is extremely high. Think about all the government workers who lost their jobs, jobs because of Doge and be scared he might get deported. It's just too much going on right now for you to be confirming which so many of us already knew and said, but got crucified for it. Okay? Now I'm letting you know right now, this isn't about aging, okay? I'm not making fun of aging. Aging is human, okay? Health scares are human. This is about honesty and jail. Biden and Democrats weren't honest. And that's one of the main reasons we are currently in the situation we are in right now. Now, okay? This is just another example of Democrats not doing what they needed to do from 2020 to 2024 in order to protect democracy. Oh, it's a long list. Okay? President Biden should have been a one term president from the beginning, all right? They should have announced it as soon as he won. He was there for a good time, not a long time. He could have set them up for the future. And you know what else he could have done? Hired an attorney general that was willing to hold President Trump and the Trump administration account accountable, especially for the role he played in the January 6th insurrection. Merrick Garland wasn't the person for that. Okay? You know what else they they should have did? Made every Democrat get on the same page in the Senate, which is always an impossible task because it's always a mansion and a cinema and a Fetterman blocking progress. But if you could have gotten cinema and mansion on the same page, you could have had 50 votes in the Senate BP at the time, Kamala Harris had the tiebreaker and you could have voted to get rid of the filibuster. Then you could properly govern. Then you can do things like expand the Supreme Court and pass the John Lewis Voting Rights act, the Freedom to Vote Act. Those were the things that needed to be done to protect democracy. But guess what? They didn't happen. Now we're here. Okay? Add the lies sold to the American people about President Biden to that list. All right? This is why Americans have trust issues with politicians. Okay? You tell us we don't feel what we feel and we don't see what we see. Once again, this wasn't about Biden being old, okay? It wasn't even about this debate. It was a trust issue. All right? You dismissed voters concerns about Biden's age and health for years instead of addressing them honestly. Poll after poll showed you voters worried about his health and mental sharpness long before the debate. And y' all told us he was just jet lagged. He had a cold. Okay? All of y' all treated the truthful, honest criticism like it was disloyalty. No, it was reality. And because of the reality that so many Americans are facing right now because of that lie. Lie. Okay, okay. Because of that lie. That's why we're here. We don't want to hear what you got to say on the manager, okay? No, it does nothing for us but prove that politicians and. And in their political circles are liars. Okay? Jill Biden, do you remember what you said after the debate about your husband? Let's Listen.
Caller/Guest
I can't thank you all enough for staying and for being here and for all your support. Joe, you did such a job.
Great.
Great job. You answered every question. You knew all the facts.
Charlamagne Tha God
This is what frustrates voters. Okay? Americans, we can handle difficult troops. What we can't handle is obvious lies and people playing in our face. Same thing happening right now. Okay? Nothing about that debate was an isolated incident. All right? I remember when special counsel Robert Heard described Biden as an elderly man with a poor memory. What did Democrats do? Dismissed it as political. Then the debate happened. Then came reports about AIDS limiting access, shielding him from scrutiny. For what? Okay, Jake Tappa's book, the Original Sin told us everything we already knew. Just like Joe Biden is telling us everything we already knew now. But all we got from Democrats during that time was gaslighting and denial about Biden's conditions. That's why I'll be going gas. For gas. Okay? You gas like me, I'll fart on you. Okay? All right. I need a big no. I need a big, big, big one, okay? Fart all over Joe Biden's comments. There you go. Listen, it doesn't matter what? There you go. Yes. All right, all right, all right. Oh, man. God dang. When you got to let it rip, you're going to let it rip. Listen, it doesn't matter. Whether every claim about Biden was fearful, fair or not, the perception became y' all weren't being transparent. And that hurt Democrats in 2024, because once Biden stepped aside, it was too late. Okay? Kamala Harris did the best she had with the card she was dealt. And she did a damn good job, too. Dropping a clues bond for Vice President Kamala Harris inherited all that chaos with barely any Runway before the election. Still raised over a billion dollars, still had over 75 million votes. But the moral of the story is, this is why people lose faith in institutions, okay? Not because leaders get old. That's life. People lose faith when parties act like acknowledging reality is somehow betrayal, okay? If voters feel like they're being gaslit, lied to, they stop trusting not just the politicians, but they stop trusting the whole system. Please give Jill Biden the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.
DJ Envy
Of the day. Of the day.
Charlamagne Tha God
Got envy walking around here in a red hat right now just to try to, you know, blend in. He's so afraid. It's a lot I could pop out at any moment.
DJ Envy
This is, this is a lox hat, by the way.
Charlamagne Tha God
I know, I know what it is, but I just.
DJ Envy
Secondly, yes, they. They critiqued us and criticized us like crazy. When I said it looked like Joe Biden had predimension, they said it was funny. And no, it's not. And how the hell are you going to say that? And I was, I. I said my mother in law had the same signs. I can see it. I can see it in them. But now when she said it's okay,
Charlamagne Tha God
it's like, oh, we knew it's not okay. And we don't want to hear it right now. Not at a time like this. Sit down and be quiet because all you're doing is reminding people of what they were right. They were right, but also what they felt and how they feel about being gaslit and lied to. And what you need to be trying to do is build trust with people right now, okay? That's what you need to be trying to do.
Angela Yee
Because she was saying it the whole time. Time.
DJ Envy
All right, well, thank you for that, donkey.
Angela Yee
Why every time I say something, why do y' all not say nothing? Because that's true. Jill was saying it the whole time she lived with this man, but Jill
Charlamagne Tha God
only because I just spent like six, seven minutes saying that same thing. So it, you know, that's all. You just reiterated what I just said for. That's all.
Caller/Guest
That's.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's it.
Angela Yee
Bye.
DJ Envy
Up next, Jess, fix somebody's mess. 800-58-5-10511. You all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.
DJ Envy
It's breakfast level one.
Angela Yee
Help me.
DJ Envy
It's the real deal. Help me, help me.
Caller/Guest
Oh, my God.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm all up in your mess.
Angela Yee
I'mma fix it, fix it, Fix my mess. Fix it, fix it. Jess Going to fix your mess Cuz my advice is real.
DJ Envy
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess. Hilarious. Charlemagne. The guy we are the Breakfast Club. It's time for Jess, fix my mess. Trey. What up, Trey?
Charlamagne Tha God
Morning.
Caller/Guest
How you doing? Good morning.
DJ Envy
What's your question for Jess?
Caller/Guest
So I was saying, like I said, I love this show. I listen every morning. I've been listening for a while, you know, got to take too much time. So I've been with my lady six years. I've been together with her four years, and I'm popping a question this year, but I'm having discrepancy on how to do it. Long story short, she's more of a private and intimate setting kind of lady. And I was planning on having, like, a barbecue and either gonna do it the day before or at the barbecue machine, like. Like a family field name. You know what I mean?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, right.
Caller/Guest
Like, I'm kind of planning it around, you know, having it, like, in an infamous setting with family.
Angela Yee
I love that.
Caller/Guest
Like, yeah, she's playing it on. She's trying to change the setting, but doesn't know what's gonna happen.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
Like, and she's also the type of woman that will ruin her own surprise, being too intrusive. Like, you know, women can smell us. You know what I'm saying? So anytime we even sweat different, they know. You know what I mean?
Angela Yee
Yeah. No, I think. I think you're on the right track. I think you should do it at, like, of course, at, like, the family reunion or, like, a family gathering, because since she is such a private person, no cameras, that you ain't got to worry about, you know, outsiders having looking and, you know, all of that, it's around the people that she loved. It's her family. It's going to be a great time to do that. The experience is going to be great. And this is something that she's going to remember and her family is going to remember. So don't effort it up, because don't make the family regret it.
Caller/Guest
No, I won't. So what I'll do is I'll go back again and let you know how it goes after it happens.
Angela Yee
Yeah. But, no, that's good. I'm glad you called me up for that clarity. I think you should. Being as though she's a. A person, that's private. I think she wouldn't have it any other way. Is, you know, around her family, to be proposed to around her family for sure.
Caller/Guest
Thank you very much. I love the show. You guys have a great day.
Charlamagne Tha God
Thank you, brother.
Caller/Guest
All right.
DJ Envy
Hello.
Caller/Guest
Who's this thing 734.
DJ Envy
What's your question for Jack Brother.
Caller/Guest
So my question is how I approach a situation with my girl. So what's been going on is in the mornings, when I get up, I get up super early in the morning, take my daughter to school, and then I head to the office, and I'm busy all day long till about. Maybe about 5 o'. Clock. Now when I leave in the morning, she's there, wide awake, laying up in the bed, chilling, watching tv. Tv, rolling up whatever she's doing. Right? When I. When I come. When I come back later on in the day, and she's still laying in that spot.
Angela Yee
Oh.
Caller/Guest
And doing the exact same thing. And I walk in, it bothers me to see that. And when I bring it up, it's like. It's like I'm crazy for saying anything. And I'm told stuff like, oh, well, how, you know, I wasn't up doing something stuff. And then I came back and got in my spot and started watching.
Charlamagne Tha God
I was like, come on.
Caller/Guest
Less than likely. Less than likely. You know, I. I highly doubt that.
Angela Yee
Okay. How long you been with her?
Caller/Guest
About eight years.
Angela Yee
And this is happening every day?
Caller/Guest
Mostly enough days to where it's like, what have you been doing all day?
Angela Yee
Right. Right now, does she work my phone off the hook?
Caller/Guest
She don't work. And if she do work, it's part time. And. And d. Said it's. It's crazy to me, especially when you're, like, texting and sending me on errands throughout the day. Like, I'm not busy.
Angela Yee
Yeah. Now, listen. What. What happened? What? Because I know that this can't be your life for the last eight years. What happened? What. Is there anything that occurred between y' all two? Oh, just with her.
Caller/Guest
Not. Not an actual occurrence, but I would say not. Nothing between us. She had a situation where she kind of went. Went off on medical. She's been on medical for a while, stuff like that.
Angela Yee
Okay.
Caller/Guest
But it's been going on before that situation.
Angela Yee
Okay. All right. So you want her to get back into the ambitious bag, right? Like, you want her to get a job. You want her to, you know, like, do you think she's depressed? Like, is that. It either sounds like she's lazy and comfortable or she's depressed and she got to be pulled up out of her phone.
Caller/Guest
I feel like. I feel like. I feel like she's lazy and comfortable because she's ecstatic. She's happy, she's smiling and watching tv. She does not living her best life. And I come here from a stressful day. It's like, Dang where is your ambition at?
Angela Yee
Where's the dinner? Where is the massage? Where is the hey, babe. Or why isn't the house clean? Why you still smell like this morning.
Caller/Guest
Exactly, exactly. Like you ain't even got up and did nothing. Like, no, you've been there all day on the phone, phone all day. Or you know, on the phone while watching tv, right? Like, it's crazy.
Angela Yee
I think you should sit down and have a conversation with her. I know you may have bought it up to her, but I don't think you actually sat down and had an in depth conversation with her because you're probably like afraid of her reaction or not afraid, but just like, you don't want the beef, you don't want the issue, but you gotta really talk to her.
Lauren LaRosa
Y', all.
Angela Yee
Y' all ain't been together for no two months, three months, one year, two years. This is a eight. Y' all going on a decade. And you want to stop something before it gets too far, you know what I mean? It just seems like she is taking advantage of being able to have her man be the provider, you know, which is fine in some instances, but it wasn't always like this. I think you should sit down and talk to her and tell her, look, I'm not happy. Express your unhappiness. Like, for real, you have the right to do that. We as women have the right to do it. So does, you know, so does the guy in a relationship tell her, like, yo, I'm not happy. I don't know what it's going to take, but I need for you to find a job. I need, I need to see that spark in ambition again. Like, you know, I know you were out on leave and all that, but like, I'm tired when I come home, I don't want to see you in the same space that you've been in. Like, I'm sorry. Like, I just. It's either you get, you get your ish together or we gonna have to start thinking about going our separate ways. Like, that's just really what it is. Give her an ultimatum. We as women do it all the time. Men can do it too. Especially if y' all doing what's on going right in the relationship. And y' all don't deserve to be treated that way.
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
Caller/Guest
And I'm older, so I like, value my piece a lot. Yeah, I might even, I might even ask a bro, my brother or something, and he kind of like don't co sign it, but he don't reinforce what I'm saying. Either he, like, man, you just gotta pick and choose your battles, man. Like, you really want to talk about this for real?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. You do?
Caller/Guest
Yes, I do.
Angela Yee
You do.
Charlamagne Tha God
You do.
Angela Yee
And it's okay. It's okay. You're older guy. You like your piece, and it should not be tainted for nobody. Not even the woman that you've been with for 18 is. So she need to get it together. Or you can go. You can. Or she can go. Sorry. She can go.
Caller/Guest
Right, Right, Right. I would. That I would. I totally agree.
Angela Yee
Yes. Don't be afraid. Do not be afraid to speak your mind, brother. You got the right to do it, and you deserve happiness.
Caller/Guest
I really appreciate that. I really appreciate it.
DJ Envy
Now just fix my mess. 800-585-1051. That wasn't me. That hurt, hunger. That wasn't me this time. That was red.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now, whatever it was, it was disrespectful. Yeah.
DJ Envy
Hello? Who's there?
Angela Yee
This.
Caller/Guest
What's up? It's Sean.
DJ Envy
Sean. What's your question for Jess, Sean?
Caller/Guest
What's up, Boo boo?
Charlamagne Tha God
Hey, boo Boo.
Angela Yee
Yo, that's my nickname, y'.
Charlamagne Tha God
All.
Caller/Guest
Nickname.
Angela Yee
Thank you. Shut up, Sean. Thank you, Sean. What's up? What's your question, buddy?
Caller/Guest
All right.
What's up? So listen, I'm dating this woman right now. Me and her been dating for, like, six years. We go on and off or whatever. Like, two years ago, we broke up, and I ended up moving out. We still stayed together, trying to work it out. Over the last couple months, I've been feeling real distant, like I'm not really interested.
Angela Yee
You're not?
Caller/Guest
Every time I try to, like, break up with her, it's always something. Like, she has real strong anxiety. It's always like, something. Mother's Day coming.
Something.
It's always something that was like, if I break up with her, I will look like an.
Angela Yee
So that's like a form of manipulation. It's just her, like, trying to manipulate you to stay in. In the relationship longer, but you feel like it's been expired.
Caller/Guest
It's been expired.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
So this past weekend, we was at an event, and I met this other woman. And I'm not gonna lie, just I haven't had a feeling like. Like that when I seen somebody in so long. It was like. So as a woman walked in the yard, I couldn't take my eyes off her. Like, I got her number, we exchanged number. We've been talking, but I really ain't trying to pursue too much.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
Caller/Guest
Until I fit this other situation, I just don't know how to do it.
Angela Yee
Well, for one, I respect that. I do respect that. You don't want to go too far with the new woman until you close the door on your soon to be ex. We just gonna speak it into an existence. Speaking into existence. Yo, you really gotta put your foot down. I understand that. You know, know this is her pattern. Like, when you try to break up with her, she always got something or, you know, a reason why you shouldn't. Oh, Mother's Day coming. Oh, you know, my mother's sick. Oh, you know, I'm. I'm. You know, you can be. You can even offer like, to be her friend. You know what I mean? But even that get a little crazy because, you know, she still wants some type of access to you, and that can get a little. Little stalkerish after a while. But now you. You really got to put your foot down. Yo, you gotta have. And I know you probably don't want breakup heart. You don't like you guys, because I. I feel like she be crying. And when she start crying, you be, no, it's okay. Like, nah, you gotta break up with her. And she know, she know. She knows what to say. She knows. She knows you. So she already know what to do.
Caller/Guest
And I feel like she already know that it's all. It's on the way out and she's like, you know, I mean, like, trying
Charlamagne Tha God
her best wrap everything around me.
Caller/Guest
And I don't like that.
Angela Yee
Yep, trying her. Her best to extend that relationship. Like, no matter what. I'm gonna say something. The. The thing that's gonna make him stay. Yo, you gotta go, because you're not happy. You. And you're doing yourself a disservice, like, you know, forcing yourself to be with her to save her feelings. But what about your feelings and what about the shorty you just met? Like, and you said you haven't had this feeling when you've seen a female for the first time in a long time.
DJ Envy
Yo, like, when you met Chris, when
Caller/Guest
he walked in, you just knew, you know, when this girl walked in, I just knew, like, period. I had to get her number. Like, I don't even go after numbers and do nothing. I know I had to get this girl number.
Angela Yee
Like, hey, you did. And you want to start fresh. And this feels great. This feels like a breath of fresh air. You like Shorty, you saw something. Sparks was flying when you first laid eyes on her. Pursue that. But first, like you said, you want to close the door with Shorty. You know, with your. Your current girl. You, yo, really like, it's time for you to. To close that. Like, I'm sorry. Close that chapter. She gonna have to get over it. She's gonna have to get over it. She'll be fine, yo. She'll be fine.
Caller/Guest
I appreciate you, Jess. I just want to bring you up. I'm so proud of you. I've been watching you. I love your bro. Keep going, Charlie. Envy. I love y', all, too.
Lauren LaRosa
Love you, too. Thank you.
DJ Envy
Jess fixed my mess. How come?
Charlamagne Tha God
Just don't tell people that. When she, you know.
DJ Envy
What's that?
Charlamagne Tha God
First met Chris, she was also doing renovations on her house. So when he walked, I wasn't doing, like, oh, my God.
Angela Yee
How you not. I was doing renovations on my house.
Caller/Guest
I ain't.
DJ Envy
That was the reason she thought she.
Angela Yee
I didn't even know he was Mexican when I saw him.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, you did. You was like. That's when you first come out. He's like, oh, my God. A Mexican in Baltimore? Oh, man.
Angela Yee
No, I did not.
Charlamagne Tha God
On my house.
Angela Yee
Shut up. That's crazy. I really was doing renovations on my house, so. You wasn't, but that's not why. No, I did it.
DJ Envy
Ask that question. I didn't.
Angela Yee
He's a trucker, a truck driver.
DJ Envy
He don't.
Angela Yee
He don't do construction.
Charlamagne Tha God
But he pulled up with a truck full of supplies.
Angela Yee
No, he did not. Did.
Charlamagne Tha God
He had pliable plywood. That's what he told he. I got some studs in the truck. He was like. She was like, oh, my God. It's the man of my dreams the whole time.

DJ Envy
by Top Dog Law on the Breakfast Club. Talk to me.
Lauren LaRosa
So yesterday, we found out that Lizzo has a new rib commercial that's typecasting. Lizzo did a commercial for Chili's Baby back ribs. Let's take a listen. Listen, I don't care how good Chili's
Angela Yee
ribs are, Lizzo is never singing the Chili's rib jingle.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay?
Caller/Guest
Okay.
Angela Yee
Well, I want you to tell them that I will never, ever wait how
DJ Envy
much I want my baby back, baby back, baby back, baby back, baby back, baby back, baby back.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like this big flute with the flute.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
State Farm Ad Voice
Is that a rib food?
DJ Envy
I like that.
Charlamagne Tha God
All that weight and Chili's trying to make her gain it back.
DJ Envy
No, I like that. Baby bad baby. That's hard. I like that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, she did it amazingly, but, you know, just for what she. Where she's trending now. I don't know. Every day, once a month, once a
DJ Envy
week, she can eat it.
Lauren LaRosa
I was wondering, y' all know how Mary J. Blige says she, like, regrets her commercial? I wonder if, like, Lizzo will look back and be like, I regret that. Because to Charlemagne's point, she's kind of changing her, like, health conversation around weight.
Angela Yee
So, girl, hell no, she ain't gonna look back. Did you hear that? Did you see the real commercial, girl? She said, no, I will never do. No, I'm not doing the chili. And she was like, how much?
Charlamagne Tha God
Baby back, baby back.
Angela Yee
Bring it out, bring it out. She wrote a verse, she got a hook. It's a chorus, interludes, all of that.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know what this means? Big money DJ Khaled about to do the 2 for 25 in allergies. That's gonna be the next one.
DJ Envy
Telling you that right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
They want y' all to stay fat, y', all.
DJ Envy
But Justin Timberlake did it too, right? He did the baby ribs at one time, right?
Angela Yee
Nobody worrying about Justin.
DJ Envy
It is what it is. She makes money, and I'm not mad at that. She ain't say eat it every day. No, she three times a day.
Angela Yee
And she looked good. I thought it was very creative.
DJ Envy
It was dirty.
Angela Yee
She's very talented.
Lauren LaRosa
So, yeah, NSYNC did it. And. And Boys to Men did it. And Lizzo.
Angela Yee
Boys to Men.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. They say Lizzo recorded a R and B rendition of the Nostalgic Theme ad campaign. According to online reports, that was one
Charlamagne Tha God
of the jokes at the roast. That actually was a compliment. I forgot who said it. It was like, what's left The Lizzo was here, right?
Angela Yee
No, Shane Gillis said that.
Charlamagne Tha God
I forgot who said it. One of them said it.
Lauren LaRosa
All right, well, shifting gears a bit. Speaking of things that people regret. So Cynthia Revo, she is having a conversation with Variety, and they try to talk to her about Wicked, which we know was a huge movie franchise. Let's take a listen.
Angela Yee
We're really gonna try and get one from Wicked, aren't we? You're the only friend I ever had. This is Alphabet in Wicked. Do you mind if we do another question that isn't about Wicked? Because I feel like I've spent the last two years talking about it, and I think that we have an opportunity to start talking about something else.
Lauren LaRosa
Is that okay?
Angela Yee
And I love Wicked, but I've just talked about it ad nauseam.
DJ Envy
Wow.
Angela Yee
I can just listen to her talk all day. I just like that accent.
DJ Envy
I think that. I think that's crazy. Wicked was so big. Yeah, it's. The kids love it. It's what people want to discuss.
Angela Yee
But it was a lot of the memes and a lot of the interviews, Ariana, that everybody was making fun of. And, you know, we paid you.
DJ Envy
We watched it, we went to go see. It wasn't a disrespectful question.
Angela Yee
No, I know, but I can understand why she wouldn't want to talk about it. I mean, yo, they was. Man. So listen, I was a part of it.
Caller/Guest
Like, it was.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, she.
Angela Yee
Oh, wow.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. Wicked 2 was horrible. Wicked 1 was good. What else was she promoting? Like, what was she there for?
Lauren LaRosa
She was there talking about she has, like, music and other projects that she's working on. On. But they were going through, like, different songs in tv, not TV or movie moments that she'd been in, and they, like, say different lyrics, and she has to remember what the song or, like, the moment in a movie was. And they tried to get in something from Wicked, but now she. In the written part of this interview, there's no audio of this. They talked to her about that moment that we're talking about with Ariana Grande when they were on the promotional tour for Wicked and she stopped the guy from coming up. Right? And she says that it was very traumatizing to her. She actually says that she feels like it derailed their Oscar campaigning. She says. I guess it's like, you know, reemerging again because she's putting her feet back on the ground again. But she says that she does believe that that's a part of the reason why she didn't do much after that. Like she didn't want to go a lot of places. She didn't want to talk. She says that she felt bastardized. And she says that, you know, she has to. She had to get with the term that people look at black women a certain way. She says because she was bald, because of her facility seek and because of her shape. People made jokes about that moment and they made it seem like she was trying to be Ariana Granda's security guard. And they just assumed that she was bigger than her co star. And so she had, you know, because they're looking at her this way. She's like. People are looking at me as like more controlling or protective when I just was trying to jump in and help because nobody moved.
Angela Yee
It's not cuz you bald head and your size and I no yo, like it's bald women around here. You know what I mean?
DJ Envy
I hate this.
Angela Yee
It's not. It's not.
DJ Envy
Did $540 million at the box office. That's what's happening. A lot of people did see it. Charlemagne Nicks is terrible. A lot of people love it. My kids love seeing the Wicked. They love the Wicked franchise. But she comes up to do an interview. People are going to ask about your biggest thing. It's like somebody coming up here and saying, hey, Charlemagne, you remember that one time and whatever happened to the Breakfast Club you to drop? It's something that people are going to ask first.
Charlamagne Tha God
First of all, what are you talking about? Out of all of the things you could have mentioned with me, that's what you mentioned.
Angela Yee
Now Charlotte said that the movie Wicked
Charlamagne Tha God
2 did suck, but life is amazing.
Angela Yee
I will now, I will say I had. I didn't hear anything about it. Like we heard all that buzz about the first one.
DJ Envy
It's on the plane now.
Charlamagne Tha God
I ain't really hear about Wicked 2 was everywhere.
Lauren LaRosa
I think you heard about it, but
Angela Yee
I think I didn't hear about it like that.
Lauren LaRosa
Her names and the jokes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Every time you saw her and Ariana Grande together, they were promoting Wicked 2.
Angela Yee
They were promoting Wicked 2. But they made it more so about their relationship toward each other. Like nobody was really talking about the movie Wicked 2. They was. They was talking about the movie. How weird they were with each other.
Charlamagne Tha God
Man. Just don't even know the date.
Caller/Guest
Thursday.
Charlamagne Tha God
Don't listen to.
Angela Yee
Shut up. I know now. Did you just say shut up? But that's what I'm saying.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh my God. Well, she. She. Cynthia Revo is saying herself that she felt that way. Like she felt like after that Moment. Every conversation turned to that and she felt like, you know, she. She wasn't human. And she said she didn't feel like she deserved.
Charlamagne Tha God
All of her feelings are valid, you know, I mean, you can't tell somebody what they feel. But I will say the movie didn't get nominated for an Oscar just because it was terrible. Wicked 1 was good. Okay. The Wicked Broadway play is great. Wicked 2 just was. Yeah, it didn't do it for me.
DJ Envy
You can't tell an interviewer what to ask either. They're gonna ask you about Wicked.
Lauren LaRosa
I mean, you can tell, but then it makes that. That becomes the moment.
Angela Yee
Exactly.
Lauren LaRosa
Because I only went. Yeah, I only went to go read this article and watch the interview because that moment picked up from the interview, so.
Angela Yee
Wow.
Lauren LaRosa
Yep. Well, that's the latest for the hour, guys. It's brought to you by Top Dog Law. Any accident what she said?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, I just do. Got one more like, do you? And it's going to sound stupid. I know it will. But when you watch Wicked. As a critic or consumer, are you. Do you see her as a black woman?
Angela Yee
No.
Charlamagne Tha God
Because she's green.
Angela Yee
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm just asking.
Lauren LaRosa
No, but when you see her on them carpets and you see her and she's saying that she feels like her appearance is made more aggressive or strong or harder because she's a black woman, she said if Ariana Grande had had stuck up for her in that same way, the. The memes wouldn't have went the same.
DJ Envy
The weirdest part to me was, yeah, she did look harder, but she. The weirdest part is her being her security. That's what it felt like. It felt like she was already underground.
Caller/Guest
Security.
DJ Envy
She's diving in front of people to stop them from touching her and pulling her away and. Oh my gosh, are you okay? That's what made it weird.
Charlamagne Tha God
That bothered me like it bothered other people. I didn't care.
DJ Envy
That wasn't the only thing.
Angela Yee
Remember in the interviews where she would, like, find stuff to fix on Ariana? Stuff that wasn't even like.
Charlamagne Tha God
That was strange.
DJ Envy
That was the way. That's what made it weird.
Angela Yee
Just holding hands and then like, you know, just all of that type.
DJ Envy
Remember when the guy grabbed her hand and she was like.
Angela Yee
And she was like, no, no, you're okay. And. And Ariana was acting like it was broken and it wasn't. And you know.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Angela Yee
It was all of that, man.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm saying all that to say Wicked two sucked. I don't know any way to tell you that's crazy. I don't.
Lauren LaRosa
Wow.
DJ Envy
You fell asleep in it though, right?
Charlamagne Tha God
I I no, I, I don't remember. I woke up when the Mexicans was doing the Yellow Brick Road though.
Angela Yee
Oh wow. They was building a road in the movie for real. Just cuz they Mexican.
Charlamagne Tha God
They were.
Lauren LaRosa
They were you getting so offended?
DJ Envy
You mean little people munchkins. There wasn't Mexicans.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm sorry, I meant to get yo.
DJ Envy
I was.
Charlamagne Tha God
I didn't see Mexicans. I meant to say I did. I'm other people.
Angela Yee
He just go straight to Mexicans.
Charlamagne Tha God
He's a my fault. All right. I didn't mean to say much.
Lauren LaRosa
I didn't even think about what you just said. I just went.
Charlamagne Tha God
You don't think.
