Are you out already or are you heading to the polls? We'll talk to all that and you can get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Wake your ass up. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news now. Last night, the Cowboys played the Arizona Cardinals. Cowboys lost. Drop a bomb for the Cardinals, please.

[DJ Envy]

Why are you dropping a bomb for the Cardinals? The Cardinals suck just as bad as y' all do. See 3 and 5. So why are you dropping a clue? Bomb for the car.

[Just Hilarious]

[DJ Envy]

Good morning, Mimi. Silly.

[Just Hilarious]

No, it's not okay.

[DJ Envy]

I like it.

[Just Hilarious]

What's up, Mimi?

[Mimi Brown]

Good morning, Envy. Jalament. How y' all doing this morning?

[DJ Envy]

Good morning, Mimi.

[Mimi Brown]

Good morning.

[Lauren LaRosa]

All right.

[Mimi Brown]

Well, we start this morning on day 35 of the government shutdown with the White House and Congress. They are still deadlocked over whether the to extend those Affordable Care act subsidies. And that's the program that helps keep premiums down for millions of Americans. And now, until a deal is reached, key agencies remain unfunded and the ripple effects, they are spreading as the nation's air traffic control system is now nearing a breaking point. Now, the FAA says it is running dangerously low on staff, forcing it to slow or even stop flights at some of the country's busiest, busiest airports just to keep travelers safe. So this weekend alone, more than 10,000 flights were delayed. Nearly 400 more were canceled nationwide, with Dallas, Newark, Atlanta, and Houston among the hardest hits. Now, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. He says the agency has issued a critical safety alert, meaning it is intentionally pacing out flights and reducing traffic to avoid accidents. Let's listen to what he had to say.

[DJ Envy]

We will delay. We will cancel any kind of flight.

[Just Hilarious]

Across the national airspace to make sure people are safe.

[Charlemagne the God]

But there is a level of risk.

[DJ Envy]

That gets injected into the system when.

[Charlemagne the God]

We have a controller that's doing two.

[Just Hilarious]

Jobs instead of one.

[DJ Envy]

We manage that, we look out for.

[Charlemagne the God]

It and safety is the priority. But I would just tell you, as bad as it is, the numbers you just gave this, we will look back. If the government doesn't open in the.

[Just Hilarious]

Next week or two, we'll look back.

[Charlemagne the God]

As these were the good days, not the bad days.

[Just Hilarious]

It's only going to get worse.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[Mimi Brown]

So really serious consequences there. Yeah. Many of those workers, as we've been talking about, they haven't been paid in weeks. And the union that represents the shutdown, the union that represents the air traffic controllers, they are warning that as airports, they will continue to see a string of near misses. So in Boston, there was a Delta pilot who aborted a landing just so that he wouldn't hit someone else who was taking off. And in Cleveland, a Southwest jet, it narrowly missed a medical helicopter. And even in New York, at LaGuardia, a United plane, it clipped another airplane's tail while 80% of the air traffic controllers were out. So, so we are seeing long lines on the ground, too. There's viral video or viral pictures of Houston. The airport is wrapped, the lines are wrapped around the airport there. So it is getting really, really, really bad. So we will continue to watch what's going on in the sky. But now to the dinner table where the Trump administration says that it will restart SNAP payments, but only partially so more than 42 million Americans who rely on SNAP to buy groceries, those benefits, they cost about $9 billion a month, but says there's only $5 billion available in an emergency fund. And that's going to cover about half of what families usually get. Now, this move comes after two federal judges. They ordered the government to use that fund, calling it unlawful to freeze benefits during a shutdown. Food banks across the country, they are bracing for the fallout, trying to keep the shells stocked while families wait on those delayed benefits. Let's listen to what's happening. We don't know what to tell people.

[DJ Envy]

When they can really start to expect those dollars to be seen on their EBT card. It takes time for them to process.

[Mimi Brown]

How much that payment is going to be to the states and then for.

[DJ Envy]

The states, how to distribute that partial payment. So it's really challenging right now to.

[Mimi Brown]

Communicate what people should be able to.

[DJ Envy]

Expect when they'll get their SNAP benefits.

[Molly Lambert]

Food banks across the country are truly.

[Mimi Brown]

The supplement to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. For every one meal that we provide, SNAP provides nine.

[DJ Envy]

It is a massive gap that food.

[Mimi Brown]

Banks cannot fully fill.

[DJ Envy]

But right now, what I can tell you this, we're going to do whatever we can to try to reduce the pain that so many are feeling as.

[Jess Hilarious]

A result of this government shutdown.

[DJ Envy]

Man salute to all the food banks, food pantries across the country. I want to salute the food bank of New York City. You know, last week I donated to have 25,000 meals given out from the food bank. And I wanted New Yorkers to, to match me. Man, they did more than match me. We've been able to provide 150,000 meals since last Friday. So thank you to the food banker in New York City. And if y' all want to continue to donate to them, go to foodbanknyc.org.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah, and just to add to that, new SNAP rules that are, that quietly took effect over the weekend. We didn't talk about this a little bit yesterday, but under Trump's big, beautiful bill, there are more changes now that are coming to the SNAP program. So there are new work requirements that will change who is now eligible for those payments. So if you are an abled body adult is what they're calling it, who can work, train or volunteer, you must do that for 80 hours a month to keep your benefits. Parents and caregivers, they are also filling it. So before caring for a child under 18 made you exempt from that work rule, now the cutoff is 14. And some exemptions were already are also rolled back, meaning if you're a veteran, if you're homeless, or if you are a former foster youth, you now have to meet stricter standards to qualify. And all that took place over the weekend.

[DJ Envy]

That's a damn shame that they're doing that to the veterans. The veterans should be getting, you know, free food aid just because they, you know, serve this country.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

And also too, why do people act like the folks on SNAP don't work? Like, yeah, I've never known people who had SNAP not to work. They always work. But you got to work because they may not be making enough money to pay for their rent, to pay for their bills, and to put food on the table. That's why they got snapped.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yep.

[Mimi Brown]

But they definitely a misconception of who's on snap. So.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, a huge misconception. A misconception. Most people feel like people on SNAP are not working, they're lazy, they got a bunch of kids, they sit up home and watch TV all day. But that's not factual.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah, them guys, you know, some of those Republicans need to go down south and go to those rural areas. And those same people with the Trump signs in their yard and wearing their MAGA hats. Those, those low income white folks, they, they own Health and, and snap just like everybody else. Absolutely. Actually, they make up the majority of people on SNAP benefits.

[Just Hilarious]

All right, my lattice, front page news. Thank you, Mimi.

[Mimi Brown]

Uh huh.

[Just Hilarious]

Everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Call us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed.

Hey, man.

[DJ Envy]

Charlemagne, the guards. Peace. Peace.

[Caller/Listener]

Yes. Yeah, yeah. It's real serious. We get off my chest with the government chef.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

What I'm saying is this administration right now, they're really not caring about the people. And at the end of the day, Trump is Mr. Fired. He's firing everybody. And he clearly stated that before this happened. So what I'm saying is for people to sit back, take this serious, forget about going to work for no pain and playing you in your face. Sit back, stand down, let this thing shut down. Because I'm telling you, they're not bringing you back.

[DJ Envy]

This is a whole new system coming.

[Caller/Listener]

In, in my opinion. And they're not bringing back these workers. They're playing in your face. And you guys are really helping do it. You're doing what corporation is supposed to be doing. And your money shouldn't be supplying the people right now. And if we're going to do it like that, then that. That's what he's telling me. This is a whole new system and we just have to look out for ourselves and do it a different way because the government is not the way.

[DJ Envy]

That's very interesting. So you think that they, you know, they want to force people to quit their job so they can bring in AI? Absolutely.

[Caller/Listener]

AI taking over jobs. They're clearing them out. Humans are gone and they're playing in.

[DJ Envy]

Your faces right now.

[Caller/Listener]

[Just Hilarious]

What's up, brother? Get off your chest.

[Caller/Listener]

All these lobbyists. I think it should be a law that they shouldn't get paid either. It should be a law. If they're gonna close the government down, they should get paid leave.

[DJ Envy]

You mean the lobbyist. What are you talking about?

[Just Hilarious]

I'm talking about when they talking about the government.

[DJ Envy]

I want to be. I want to be Anonymous.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay, Ms. Anonymous. Get it off your chest.

[Caller/Listener]

I want to get off my chest. I just want you guys to know when you guys are going through the airport Just thank the officers for coming to work and not being paid. We understand that y' all frustrated because of the long lines, but we frustrated as well.

[DJ Envy]

That's right. I agree. We all in this together. I. I completely agree with you. Right?

[Jess Hilarious]

You are so right. I did that flying out of Charlotte this weekend and flying into Charlotte, so. You so right.

[Caller/Listener]

Thank you. I appreciate it. And also, I want to call out the FSD for New York City. You don't want us to get no type of gifts from the passengers from the airline. They just want us to be slaving in there.

[DJ Envy]

That's horrible.

[Jess Hilarious]

So y' all can't accept from passengers. Y' all can't accept nothing.

[Just Hilarious]

I get why they say nothing. I get why they don't say the money. But they should be able to get gift cards. They should be able to get food.

[Jess Hilarious]

But why can't they accept the money?

[Just Hilarious]

Because they're saying if you could bribe somebody to get something through. Oh, you say you get his little $100. Slide this through. But I get it. But they should be able to get food or breakfast or dinner or lunch to help somebody, some. Somehow, some way.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Right?

[Caller/Listener]

We can't get nothing. We can't take nothing. We can't do nothing. No gift cards, no gas cards.

[Jess Hilarious]

Y' all better start whispering them cash apps, telling you whisper them cash apps. Can't nobody prove that they sending you cash apps.

[Caller/Listener]

That's a fact.

[Jess Hilarious]

So.

[Caller/Listener]

And also, I want you guys to keep in mind, anybody listening, just make sure when you guys are traveling, please, please, please thank the officers, because you don't know if they come and we're doing their job. They forcing us to come to work. They telling us if we call out, we're gonna lose our job.

[DJ Envy]

Right?

[Caller/Listener]

So you don't know who in there doing their job the way they supposed to be.

[DJ Envy]

You're right. Right.

[Just Hilarious]

And how many times people try to walk through with some. Some weed and you just turn your head the other way?

[DJ Envy]

Oh, weed is illegal, sir.

[Caller/Listener]

Never.

[Jess Hilarious]

You can't.

[Just Hilarious]

You can't swap weed through the airport.

[DJ Envy]

You can't. No, I don't be doing that noise right. You all right? Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Thank you, guys.

[Jess Hilarious]

Thank you for taking my call.

[DJ Envy]

You know what I wanted to say? I remember what I wanted to say. If we didn't have to pay taxes during the government shutdown, and if these corporations didn't get paid either, meaning we didn't have to pay them during the government shutdown, like, if you are a federal worker, you don't got to pay no Rent, no. Mortgage, no. Light bills, no. Gas bills, no nothing. If you work for the federal government and. And when the government is shut down, you think that these corporations and billionaires wouldn't be going crazy right now? These corporations and billionaires would be pushing back against the government, demanding that they something to reopen this government if they weren't getting paid as well. If you're a federal worker, though. Only if you're a federal worker. If you're a federal worker, you should be exempt from having to pay anything during the government shutdown. I guarantee that would make these corporations lose their minds.

[Just Hilarious]

That's right. We'll get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We got the latest with Lauren coming up. What we talking about, Lauren?

[Lauren LaRosa]

Hey, y'.

[Molly Lambert]

All.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Good morning.

[Jess Hilarious]

Hey, girl.

[Lauren LaRosa]

So that fight that was supposed to go down with Jake Paul and Gervonta Tate Davis in Miami on November 14 is not happening. It has been canceled officially. And this comes, you know, not too long after Gervonta Tank Davis was accused of assaulting a woman at a strip club. So MVP Promotions, which is the promotional group behind the fight, posted a statement yesterday that said most valuable promotions in Netflix have announced. Announced that Jake Paul vs. Javante Davis, originally scheduled for Friday, November 14th in Miami, will no longer be moving forward. They say our team has worked closely with all parties to navigate this situation responsibly because last week they had announced that they were investigating into the assault claims by the woman and trying to figure out how they were going to move forward. The the CEO of the company says while we will not be moving forward with this event, our plan still remains for Jake Paul to headline an event on Netflix in 2025. Details regarding the new date, location, Jake's opponent and additional bouts will be shared as soon as they are finalized. We thank Netflix and thank the venue as well for their partnership, and they say they appreciate continued support there. There's also a plan in place already for fans who have purchased tickets. They say if you purchase tickets via Ticketmaster for the fight, you'll automatically get a refund however you purchased. And then if you purchase through a third party, they say you should contact your third party and then they have an assistant, like an email that you can reach out to if you need help nav in this situation.

[DJ Envy]

But let me ask you a question. There must, there must have been like, there must be like a video or something because it's a civil lawsuit and it's just allegations. It's not criminal. So there must be something that, you know, made them be like, oh, no. Yeah, we got to back away from this.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah. So we actually have some exclusive details. So we were told by a source that would know that there is an alleged video of the incident. We were also told that, you know, it's not just about the incident, although I'm sure that that had a pretty big, you know, that was a pretty big reason for why we got to this point. But we're also told when it comes to Javante Tank Davis, you know, I was told by the source that they, that, you know, people working close to production alleged that he is horrible to work with. He was very late all the time, and there was issues with getting him to promote the fight. All this on top of the fact that I'm told that the tickets weren't selling well in the first place. And then now you have this, you know, these allegations of assault that come from this woman in Florida and, you know, they just decided to pull the plug.

[Just Hilarious]

Now, two questions. The woman in Florida, is that his. His baby mother or. No, this is another separate incident.

[Lauren LaRosa]

No, this is a separate incident. It's a woman named Courtney Rossell. She claimed that her and Tank, or Javante Tank Davis, had a private, intimate relationship over the last five, five months. And she says that it hasn't been anything but smooth. She wrote in a lawsuit that was filed in Miami that she alleges that he beat her up and Threatened her on several different occasions. And then like, even allegations of like, I'll kill you and, you know, things like that. And that there was. In the lawsuit, she mentions that it got worse at one point because he had. She alleges that he attacked her while she was working. She's a VIP cocktail waitress at Tootsies, and she alleges that he showed up around like a little bit after 4 o' clock in the morning one day, found her in the VIP lounge. She alleges that he forcibly grabbed her and dragged her through the stairway, through a kitchen, through a back entrance, all the way into the parking garage.

[Just Hilarious]

And Tootsies is a gentleman's club in Florida.

[DJ Envy]

Can we drop on a police box for Tootsies in Miami, please? I've been. I frequented.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah. So she's a legend a lot. So if there is a video that shows any of this, you know what I mean? Like, that would definitely. Anybody with some money on the line back away.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, there's cameras all over Tootsies, I'm sure.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah. Now also too.

[DJ Envy]

At all, I heard.

[Jess Hilarious]

That the tickets wasn't selling.

[DJ Envy]

I heard it was. I heard the tickets weren't moving like they wanted them to.

[Just Hilarious]

So they're saying he was supposed to get like a 40 million plus payday.

[DJ Envy]

$40 million. What did Jake Paul say, Lauren?

[Lauren LaRosa]

So Jake Paul posted on his story last night, 10 minutes after the announcement went live, and he said Gervonta Davis is an actual walking human piece of garbage. Working with him is the absolute nightmare. The unprofessionalism, the bizarre request, showing up hours late to shoots. To the numerous arrests and related accusations and lawsuit. If you support this man, you support the most vile sin a man can commit. I did not want to give this. He's, I'm going to say alleged. Alleged woman abuser. A platform to grow his fans or to grow his bank account. My company champions women. He's talking about mvp. I'm so sorry to everyone involved, mostly to the undercard fighters, to my team at mvp and to my team who worked so hard prepping for this fight, sacrificing time with loved ones, kids, just for this fool to lose his unintelligent mind again. It's scary that the devilish men like this can rise to the top of culture and sports, including positions of power. I hope you people moving forward, look beyond his fake streetwear pieces and he puts swag and cat captions and search for something deeper to be a fan of. As for me, I'm on to the next as Always.

[DJ Envy]

I mean, that's unfortunate. One thing I tell everyone around me, and I stress that to every, you know, young person around me. When you work with people, you want folks to say that you are a pleasure to work with. If the people you are working with say that, then you will always get work. Do you think these companies, like a Netflix, want to pay tens of millions of dollars to someone that's causing them stress?

[Just Hilarious]

No.

[DJ Envy]

Nobody's bigger than the program.

[Just Hilarious]

No, not at all. So who is he fighting next? Because he said the fight's still going to happen, right? Do they have options of who he's gonna fight?

[Lauren LaRosa]

They don't.

[DJ Envy]

So they're he's looking for people that want to hospitalize him. The names I saw he I'm like, boy. I mean, Tank would have been a tough form too, but Tank's a lot smaller. But you talking about Andre Ward, Terence Crawford. Man, if you don't sit down. Yes, Andre Ward too. And I rock with Jake Paul. I think Jake Paul does a phenomenal job.

All I know is what I've been told and that's a half truth is a whole lie.

[Maggie Freeling]

For almost a decade, the murder of an 18 year old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky went unsolved until a local homemaker, a journalist and a handful of girls came forward with a story.

[Caller/Listener]

[DJ Envy]

But come on now.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, I didn't see Ryan Garcia right.

[Lauren LaRosa]

As what he's doing.

[DJ Envy]

Oh, I love what he's doing with mvp, I think. I think I love what he's doing.

[Jess Hilarious]

Ryan Garcia.

[Just Hilarious]

I already.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I thought I heard Ryan Garcia, too, and some of the websites I was. I was reading and preparing for this. A lot of those sports website were saying that that's like a big rumor, too.

[DJ Envy]

Orion got another fight lining up, though. I forgot what the guy, Mario something. Yeah, Mario 40 million.

[Just Hilarious]

You won't fight him. I do two rounds. You do two.

[DJ Envy]

No, but listen, I will say this, too. This is probably the first time in a long time that Tank hasn't been the A side. And I wonder if that was messing with him as well, because Jake Paul is absolutely the A side. Yes.

[Just Hilarious]

Ego.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

I hate to see when people get in their own way, though.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

You know, I mean, like, they get in their own way for a huge payday to make sure that he could take care of his family, his kids, and.

[DJ Envy]

And, you know, are we only here in one side? Even though we've heard this from a lot of different people here in one side?

[Lauren LaRosa]

We are, and I did.

[Just Hilarious]

But the fact the fight's not gonna happen is.

[Charlemagne the God]

Is, you know.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, yeah, you know, that's. That's.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Jess Hilarious]

A lot of people reached out to Javante, not.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Not him directly. And I mean, if you want to help me, just. I know that you also. So I reached out to a team member that I knew that worked with him that would not give me any comment. But, you know, one of the biggest things when you talk about envy, what you're talking about, like, people getting in their Own way is you gotta think about, like, why people show up for Gervonta. Tank Davis so much. Like, he represents so much from people from where he's from, areas he employs, so many people. So something like this, especially if this is about to be what it's about to look like for the rest of his career, because he's been saying he doesn't even want to fight anymore. This is a horrible way to, you know, go out on top of everything that he's done. So it's just sad to see.

[Just Hilarious]

All right, all right, well, that is the latest for Lauren. Thank you, Lauren.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You're welcome.

[Just Hilarious]

All right.

[Jess Hilarious]

[Just Hilarious]

[Molly Lambert]

[Jess Hilarious]

All right, so this the thing. The coconut liquid is. Coconut liquid is referred to as endosperm. Right. So it's a creamy tissue that produces.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Either texture is like that.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Jess Hilarious]

That'S crazy, right?

[DJ Envy]

It was crazy high thoughts. For real.

[Jess Hilarious]

[DJ Envy]

Jess.

[Just Hilarious]

Hilarious Charlamagne. The guy we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Start off with sports. Last night the Cowboys lost.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah, whatever. Listen, salute to Kanye and Anthony, man. Drop on a clues Bonds for Kanye and Anthony. He had his debut last night with syracuse. He had 15 points, man. Yeah, as a freshman. That was his first game. He had 15 points. I think he had. He was 6 for 10. 6 for 10 shooting.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, dope.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

So he balled out and grandmoms was there.

[DJ Envy]

Yep.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, I love to see that, man.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah. 15 points on 6 to 10 shooting, 3 rebounds, 3 assists in 28 minutes, man. So you the young Cayenne. Syracuse won last night too. 8547 against Bing Binghamton.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay? But don't forget, the Cowboys lost last night to Arizona. 17. Now, I just want to make sure people know, you know, the Giants lost.

[DJ Envy]

On Sunday, too, right? See, this is the problem. The hypocrisy in New Yorkers is so ridiculous. Like, you know the Giants got their ass beat on Sunday, right? We're not talking about that.

[Charlemagne the God]

We talking about yesterday.

[Jess Hilarious]

That's so old.

[Just Hilarious]

Like, he's like a chick, just want to talk about old stuff. Like, nah, that was old.

[DJ Envy]

No, New Yorkers are like chicks that want to talk about old stuff, y'. All. That's all y' all do do is live off y' all old glory days.

[Just Hilarious]

But Cowboys ain't got no old glory days. They super.

[DJ Envy]

Oh, we definitely got old glory days. Okay. The 90s was our era.

[Jess Hilarious]

I'm sorry, Mimi.

[DJ Envy]

Go. I'm sorry, Mimi. Good morning, Mimi.

[Mimi Brown]

Good morning, y'.

[DJ Envy]

All.

[Mimi Brown]

Happy Election Day. So today is election Day, and the stakes are high. Coast to coast, from City hall in New York to state houses in Virginia and in New Jersey and even out here in California. So in New York City, though, President Trump is turning heads with a surprise endorsement. He's backing. Former Governor Andrew Cuomo is a lifelong Democrat running as an independent instead of Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa. Now, in truth, social, Trump told supporters yesterday, whether you personally, personally like Cuomo or not, you have no choice. He urged voters not to back Sliwa, calling it a vote for Zoran Mandami. Now, Mondame, he was on CNN last night. He was firing back, saying that the endorsement proves that Cuomo and Trump are cut from the same clothing. Let's listen to what he had to say.

[Charlemagne the God]

But I do think New Yorkers must understand that Andrew Cuomo waited until the final day before the election to have this be revealed. He wanted to be able to make the message to Democrats that he was.

[Just Hilarious]

In fact, the governor that he said he was.

[Charlemagne the God]

And then right at the last moment, the last opportunity to fully embrace the MAGA movement that we have long said.

[DJ Envy]

He is tied to.

[Mimi Brown]

So Madani, he's also responding to Trump's remarks on 60 Minutes, where the president said that he would withhold federal money from New York City if he wins. Let's listen to that as well.

[DJ Envy]

So I think you could clearly see.

[Charlemagne the God]

That Donald Trump is threatened by our campaign. He's threatened by it because, like his, we've diagnosed the crisis in working class New Yorkers lives, the cost of living. But unlike him, we're actually going to deliver on that, and that is a contrast that he can't bear to see. And this money that we're talking about, it's money that New York City is owed. It's not Donald Trump's to decide which city or state will get what money. This is the money that New Yorkers are owed, and this is the money.

[Just Hilarious]

That we're going to fight for.

[Mimi Brown]

So that was him just responding to that. And so New Yorkers, of course, today is the day to vote. Meanwhile, in New Jersey and Virginia, voters are electing governors today. In New Jersey, Democrat Mikey Sherrill and Republican Jack Cittarelli, they have sparred over affordability, from housing to taxes to utility bills. And in Virginia, Democrat Abigail Spanberger, she is centering her message on the economy. She's tying the ongoing shutdown and job, job cuts to Trump's policies. Her opponent, Republican winsome Earl Sears. And she's leaned heavily into social issues, but so far, she's struggled to gain traction with voters who are worried about their wallet. And out here in California, voters are weighing in on Proposition 50 today, and that's the measure that would redraw the state's congressional maps temporarily at five Democrat leaning seat. So from the economy to housing to drawing the maps, there's local elections almost going on in every city. And today is the day to make your voice heard. So Election Day is underway right now.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah, I'm definitely gonna get my sticker when I go vote for governor of New Jersey. And I want to tell the New Yorkers, if you support Zoran Mandani and you want Zoran Mandani to win, you better go out there and vote today. Okay. Don't listen to the polls and think that he has it in the bag, because I believe the election is going to be way closer than people think. And. And folks are definitely mobilizing against Zoran Mandani. You know what I'm saying? So if you form, you better mobilize for them, because they definitely mobilize it against them.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah. In a very big way. And while voters are making big decisions at the polls, there's another chapter closing this week for families in the DMV area. So, Jess, I have a question for you. You grew up in Baltimore. Did you ever go to Six Flags in Bowie?

[Jess Hilarious]

Absolutely, I did. That was like the park for us. Like, please don't tell me what I think. You better tell me what's up.

[Mimi Brown]

I am about to tell you what you think I'm about to tell you.

[Jess Hilarious]

No.

[Mimi Brown]

So, yes, it is. There's a lot of memories tied to that park. It's trending on social media this morning, and that's because after 50 years in operation, Six Flags America has officially closed its doors.

[Jess Hilarious]

Trash.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Why?

[Mimi Brown]

The economy. But basically, the company says that it is no longer part of its larger Six Flags Corporation. They said that the buoy location, it no longer fits into its long term plan. And so the park, it's water park. So what's that? Hurricane Harbor.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yes, Hurricane Harbor. Hurricane Bay. I'm sorry? Hurricane Bay. That's what it is.

[Mimi Brown]

All of that, the 100 rides, the show, the slides, the roller coasters, it is all gone. So this past weekend, crowds, they packed in for one last visit before it permanently shut down. But for families, including you, Jess, it's marking what, the end of an era, A lot of summer memories and roller coasters and all that?

[Jess Hilarious]

Absolutely. So are they gonna put something else right there or they just like, no, y' all can't have nothing.

[Just Hilarious]

Bye.

[Mimi Brown]

They didn't say yet. They just said right now it's closing and they want people to kind of visit their other locations. So what?

[Charlemagne the God]

There's.

[Mimi Brown]

I think there's a Six Flags in New Jersey. Texas.

[Just Hilarious]

It's about three hours away.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

But 7A on the turnpike.

[Jess Hilarious]

Nah. Yo, y' all don't understand how close that was to my house. Like, that was so close. We used to go there. I used to sneak in. Like, it would be crazy.

[DJ Envy]

That's exactly why they had to close.

[Just Hilarious]

And that's why they closed.

[DJ Envy]

That's exactly why I had to close. People like you that was sneaking in. Oh, my God. That's exactly why.

[Charlemagne the God]

Because they weren't making no money.

[Just Hilarious]

No money.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Well, they made it easy.

[Jess Hilarious]

They ain't really had people working there, man.

[DJ Envy]

They.

[Jess Hilarious]

They made it easy. So people just go in. Damn. Oh, my God.

[Mimi Brown]

All right, Sunday was the last day, so. And while one institution is closing and saying goodbye, another one is celebrating a big milestone. So Howard University, where I went to school, it just got a major boost thanks to philanthropists. Mackenzie Scott, and she's donating $80 million to the university. Unrestricted funds. Yes. $80 million.

[Jess Hilarious]

Damn.

[Mimi Brown]

So that means because it's unrestricted, the money can be used wherever it's needed the most. Now, this isn't her first time giving back, so when you add her earlier gifts. So 40 million in 2020. 12 million in 2023. So Scott's total support for Howard now tops $132 million.

[Just Hilarious]

Wow. I know.

[Mimi Brown]

That is a lot of money.

[DJ Envy]

I can't wait till I can't do. I can't wait till. I can do stuff like that. I cannot wait till you hit. $80 million to South Carolina State University.

[Jess Hilarious]

That's amazing.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah, that's amazing. So the school says they plan to put 17 million toward the College of Medicine to help launch a new academic medical center. And millions more will go to students in need. But Howard isn't even the only HBCU benefiting from her generosity. In the past week, she's given 38 million to to Spelman, 63 million to Morgan State, and 38 million to Alabama State University. So she's also Jeff Bezos ex wife, in case anyone didn't know that. And she has pledged to give away most of her fortune. And she's clearly keeping her promise.

[DJ Envy]

What is she doing that just to piss Jeff Bezos off? She know Jeff Bezos racist. She's like, I got something for you all. I take all your money and give it to these HBCUs. Hey, yo, what if I don't know what her reasoning for doing it is, but you know. Yeah. Salute to her, man. Damn, man. Mackenzie Scott be doing it. Salute to her.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah, that's what's up. Absolutely.

[Mimi Brown]

Yep. A lot of money given away there, so. Well, that's your front page news, y'.

[Just Hilarious]

Now, when we come back, Pastor Michael Todd will be joining us. We're gonna talk to him next, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. We have Pastor Mike Todd. Welcome back, brother.

[Charlemagne the God]

What's going on, fam?

[DJ Envy]

Y' all good today? Yes.

[Mimi Brown]

How you feeling?

[DJ Envy]

How you doing, brother?

[Charlemagne the God]

I feel great, man. Y' all look good in here.

[DJ Envy]

Oh, thank you.

[Just Hilarious]

Before we dive into. To anything, I do have a question, because they were making fun of me, Right?

[Charlemagne the God]

What's up?

[Just Hilarious]

I was speaking to a pastor, and we were talking about the celebration of Halloween, and we used to go all out as a family. We used to do these videos and, you know, make it fun and.

[Charlemagne the God]

Right.

[Just Hilarious]

Used to decorate the house. And the pastor said, I don't know if it's a good idea to go that far into it. She said, I'm not gonna tell you.

[Jess Hilarious]

Don't.

[Just Hilarious]

Trick or treat. But what you're doing might be a little too far.

[Charlemagne the God]

I got you.

[Just Hilarious]

What's your thoughts on it?

[Charlemagne the God]

So there's a whole bunch of different camps on this, especially as people are actually coming out of that holiday. My thing is this is a season where the origins of it are very dark, demonic, let's say, evil. There are specific things, though, that happen in our culture that I believe can be redeemed. So I have little kids that actually like dressing up, and if they dress up, not on Halloween, it's not a bad thing. It's like, oh, look at him. He looks like a little. A little princess, or anything like that. So what me and my family do is we use this opportunity to reach people with what we believe, with faith. We use this moment to bless people, to give to them, to actually. This is a time for people to actually meet their neighbors. Do you know how many people live in their neighborhood and never talk to their neighbors? Never actually. You drive by them, you look at their Christmas lights, but you never talk to them. So we use this as a moment to actually meet our neighbors. We invite them to church. We bless them with the best candy. We actually actually talk to them and use it because all things can actually work together for good. I definitely think that there are some evil things that happen in this season also. I think to the pure, all things are pure, and there is something good that can come out of every situation. Also, at the church, we do fall festivals, and we bring kids to the church, and we. We take something that culture uses sometime to glorify something else, and we try to figure out a way where we can put hope, love, joy, peace in the middle of it. And so I just would encourage everybody to use this as a moment to come together and not divide, you know, so interesting.

[DJ Envy]

I don't think nobody's thinking about Halloween as something evil. It's. It's community, it's joy, like you said, it's the giving of the candy. It's a bonding thing with the family and the neighbors. Like, I don't think nobody's looking at it.

[Charlemagne the God]

Like, now there are some evil stuff. Come on, now.

[DJ Envy]

Hold on.

[Charlemagne the God]

Wait a minute. I mean, first off, all of the come. Why he gonna do that? Come on, man. Don't do it like that.

[DJ Envy]

People dress up one day, and when people do this all year round. Yeah, yeah. One day of people pretending.

[Charlemagne the God]

No, no, no, no. I think.

[DJ Envy]

I think that horror movies are evil, too.

[Charlemagne the God]

I think some. A lot of the origins of them are a lot of the killing, a lot of the Evil spirits, a lot of the ghost stuff, a lot of demonic activity, the seances, the Ouija boards, I mean on and on and on. I do believe that stuff is demonic and does is spiritual from darkness.

[DJ Envy]

What about hip hop when you playing the records about people killing each other?

[Charlemagne the God]

And I think a lot of that is evil origin as well. Let's be honest.

[DJ Envy]

You gonna stop playing those records?

[Jess Hilarious]

Envy Charlemagne, he grew up job so he wasn't able to celebrate a bunch of, you know, a bunch of holidays.

[Charlemagne the God]

So I got living out his little.

[Just Hilarious]

Boy, I think it's different.

[Jess Hilarious]

So he don't even look at it as a denomination.

[Charlemagne the God]

You know, I got you demonic and all that.

[DJ Envy]

What are you about to say? No, I'm asking. But.

[Just Hilarious]

But what one somebody, somebody would say that it's more diving into demonic ways and worshiping the demons. Worshiping.

[DJ Envy]

You don't think that music does that?

[Charlemagne the God]

You worship it.

[DJ Envy]

Satan was. What was Satan? The minister of music?

[Charlemagne the God]

Yes sir.

[DJ Envy]

Oh, okay.

[Just Hilarious]

But do you worship it? You worship music?

[DJ Envy]

Yes, I do actually. I love hip hop.

[Just Hilarious]

I think that worship is a little different than.

[Charlemagne the God]

Worship is a definite bowing down to something. Okay. So let's be, let's be very clear about that. And music is a conduit of worship. So I would encourage everybody, whatever you're listening to, there is something that can get into your heart, your spirit, your mind, your soul that will make you do things that is not what you would really want to do. It begins to show your allegiance and to make idols of different things. And so that's why music is so powerful. And I will say I agree with you that the origins of a lot of the music that is out and that we listen to is from evil nature music.

[DJ Envy]

Halloween.

[Charlemagne the God]

Oh, completely.

[DJ Envy]

It's not even close.

[Jess Hilarious]

But that's why you have to have strong will. If you have your own what I'm saying, you got strong will, then you won't be affected.

[Charlemagne the God]

I will say that. I will say that a strong will will get you so far. But there are things that are more powerful than a will. There, there are decisions that you can make to partner with certain things that are stronger than your decision. No, I don't want to do that. How many people have said I ain't going back to that dude and he called you at night time and you end up in his bed. Hold on, let me just say. I'm just, I'm just trying to say treat. What I'm saying is how many times that we said we're not going to eat the donut and we're sitting there with a box of Krispy Kremes. How many times have we said so strong will is not always enough. I, I really believe that you have to not just have strong will, you actually have to have disciplines, practices, things that are accountable around you. Because if you don't, you will end up. I think everybody listening and everybody in this room has done stuff. We had a strong will that we were not going to do.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah, for sure.

[Charlemagne the God]

And, and that's why I think that we, to, to. To put our faith in something that's stronger than our strong will and have a foundation that'll never change. And for me, that's Jesus Christ.

[Just Hilarious]

See, Charlemagne is the type of person, you know, you give up cigarettes and he be like, but you're still drinking soda though.

[Jess Hilarious]

But you know, can I be comfortable.

[Just Hilarious]

With what I want to be comfortable with?

[DJ Envy]

I'm not judging, I'm just saying. But also too, what he, what he failed to mention is I don't think you can, I don't think you can do a little bit of evil.

[Just Hilarious]

What do you mean?

[DJ Envy]

So if you think something is wrong, you can't do a little bit of evil of it.

[Charlemagne the God]

I got you.

[DJ Envy]

You understand what I'm saying? So either you going to stop doing it all together or you're still.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm just not, I'm just not diving into the, the huge thing that I, I used to do before and do these huge videos and, and decorations and productions. I'm not doing that. If my kids wanted to dress up and trick or treat with their friends, I'm cool with. But I'm not opening up my negativity in my house.

[Charlemagne the God]

We got to celebrate this. This is progression though, and not perfection. And I think that everybody has to do that. Cuz there will be the Charlemagne of this world that always try to pick out what you're not doing.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah. Yes, every day.

[Charlemagne the God]

But, but I need, I felt that, that you need an amen right there.

[DJ Envy]

Huh?

[Charlemagne the God]

But I feel like that that's not the way that people change. People don't fall into their vices all of a sudden. They fall in progressively. It's watching something, it's doing something, it's then participating all the time and it's becoming it.

[DJ Envy]

No, this is all of a sudden because on Friday he was telling us how he forgot his costume. He was supposed to be named that, blah, blah. And then all of a sudden today he was like my past. And then in the next break, shout out to everybody who celebrated Halloween this week.

[Just Hilarious]

But this the thing. But see, the transition is messy production. I'm not doing the production and opening up my house to envy. I am still go. I still go out with my kids.

[Charlemagne the God]

Don't let them. Do not let him or anybody else.

[Jess Hilarious]

Anybody else.

[Lauren LaRosa]

It's him.

[Charlemagne the God]

Okay, It's. But this is what I'm saying. The truth is of the matter is all transitions and have tension. When you're trying to make a change, especially when you have been something else, you have to realize that people won't understand your transition. Because a lot of times that transition is supposed to happen in the dark. It's supposed to have a dark room. You have to develop into that thing. And because you guys do everything in front of everybody and somebody can pull up what you said last week or last year or last month and like you, not that. Hey, see, forget all of that. For everybody that's listening in this room right now, and that's in here, progression is messy.

[DJ Envy]

Would you tell Bruce Jenner the same thing?

[Charlemagne the God]

In my mind and again and again, what I'm gonna tell you is progression. And changing into who God has created you to be is a messy process. And sometimes you go back and forth. Sometimes you're trying to figure it out, sometimes you're trying to fill out what's real to you and what you actually have to do, too.

[DJ Envy]

You're one of the few pastors who really speak the language of coaching. Right. Where's the line between relevance and reverence for you?

[Charlemagne the God]

Yeah. So the line is at the conviction. I. I really have a relationship with God where he will correct me and convict me. And I have a relationship with people who have the sit down and shut up card in my life. And most people, when they get to certain levels, nobody can tell them nothing. But I have a wife. Shout out to my wife, Natalie, who is the greatest gift that God ever gave me. I met my wife when I was 15 years old, and we've been together for 23 years. Married 15, four kids later. And she's the only woman that sees me fully. And when I say fully, she sees my insecurities. She sees my fault. She sees my lack, she sees my successes. And God gave her to me to be a mirror. She don't care about none of this. She don't care about anything. She cares that I am a man of God and I do what I say. And so first off, if I'm coming home, laying next to that every night, that's. That's a lot. Hey, Mike, that was too far. For real. Hey, you shouldn't have said that. Oh, dang. I thought that like, so I have people like that in my life and that's just. She's the main one, but I have several other others. And so I approach everything with reverence. I think that sometimes people get confused though. The, the way people present something with being irreverent just because it's different. And, and, and one of the things that I know for me is like I would be this way if I was an Amazon truck driver. I would like clothes. I would, I would, I would listen to music. I would do like. And God doesn't bless who you pretend to be. He blesses who you really are.

[DJ Envy]

Yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

And so for me, it's like God's changed me every part of my life throughout this journey and he's continuing to change me. That's why I lead a church called Transformation Church. I will not be the same this time next year. Something in me will have changed. And prayerfully, something in you would have changed. And that's why a lot of time we take snapshots of people in their life life and we keep them there. But please make sure you running a movie on me because I'm going to keep changing you. You. I mean, three years ago I was 275 pounds.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Stop lying.

[Charlemagne the God]

I am not playing with you. I'll give you pull up a picture. 175 pounds. I was hiding it in them 3x4x supreme. I was, I was fly. You couldn't tell. But then God convicted me. He said, how you going to tell these people to live right? And you are going to commit sin every day with your fork.

[Jess Hilarious]

Nobody talks about thing about the donuts. That was you.

[Charlemagne the God]

That was me. Because the truth of the matter is I was sinning not with a woman. I was sinning with a donut.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And every.

[Charlemagne the God]

Hey, listen, I'm telling you. I'm telling you. No, no. It's funny but the truth of the matter is people are out here judging other people for lying and committing adultery and they doing it all while committing sin. Like food was meant for. For us to be nourished, to fulfill God's plan not to become something to give us peace when we need to go to him for peace.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

And so again that conviction came to me and God was like, I don't want you to say nothing until you get your life in order. And so I turned my garage into a gym. I heard a personal trainer. Me and my wife work out every day together and. And I've lost 60 pounds. My wife finer than she ever been in her whole life. God, I thank you. And what I'm saying is. But it came because I got convicted.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

Like. And so. And again, we all miss the mark. Everybody misses the mark and falls short of the glory of God. But we all got to keep trying lying.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You know what?

[Jess Hilarious]

Yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

I was 275.

[Jess Hilarious]

That's okay. That's crazy.

[Charlemagne the God]

That's crazy.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

But.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah, and I'm not like. Like, yeah, Big enough.

[Charlemagne the God]

It was under there. It was under there.

[Jess Hilarious]

He not biggest, but he big enough.

[Charlemagne the God]

God doesn't bless who you pretend to be. He blesses who you really are. I do not cuss, though. But I. But I.

[Just Hilarious]

He does it, but he don't smoke, he don't drink. So what are you going over there for?

[Charlemagne the God]

Hey, listen. Don't judge her. Listen, you can cuss around me.

[Jess Hilarious]

Thank you.

[Charlemagne the God]

You're still.

[Just Hilarious]

You shouldn't.

[Charlemagne the God]

Why?

[Just Hilarious]

I'm gonna tell your mama.

[Charlemagne the God]

Why?

[Just Hilarious]

What would your mama say?

[Charlemagne the God]

This is religion.

[Molly Lambert]

Same thing you said.

[Jess Hilarious]

But.

[DJ Envy]

Oh, speak on that. This is religion.

[Charlemagne the God]

What's happening right now is religion. Religion says that I. I'm doing something because of who's around. I'm doing something because of how it makes me look. I'm doing something because of how I want you to view me. Me, if that's not who you really are, it can never change. And so for me, I tell people all the time, if you cuss, cuss around me, Something in me, though my prayer is we spend enough time together would allow you to see that that's not the type of language that you have to use to get your point across.

[Jess Hilarious]

Right.

[Charlemagne the God]

But if that's what you choose, I would still rather be connected to you and have access to you and love you and be able to be an answer to your problem, then to be disconnected. Cause you cuss right now.

[DJ Envy]

Draw the line at coke, at coke and coke.

[Just Hilarious]

I don't do none of that.

[DJ Envy]

I'm saying, don't do that around me. Some stuff you can't do around me.

[Charlemagne the God]

I mean, there are tons of things you can't do around me just for the reasons of what I'm trying to live. Yeah, but the truth of the matter is, sometimes we use those things and we act like that's a God thing and it's actually your personal thing.

[DJ Envy]

That's real.

[Charlemagne the God]

Like, stop putting everything on God and say, like, I don't like when you cuss around me.

[Just Hilarious]

Like, hey, but certain things of respect, though, like, you ain't gonna curse around your mama.

[Charlemagne the God]

You are certainly some people do depending on who your mama is. And what I'm saying is if you don't do it around your mama but you do it around everybody else, you're a faker. And what happens respecting because you don't curse. What I'm saying is you're disintegrated. You are learning and practicing being different people and there are too many people why depression is on high. Why people are dealing with anxiety because they forget get who they have to show up as. So every room I walk into I show up as myself.

All I know is what I've been told and that's a half truth is a whole lie.

[Maggie Freeling]

For almost a decade, the murder of an 18 year old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky went unsolved until a local homemaker, a journalist and a handful of girls came forward with a story.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm telling you. We know Quincy killed her.

[Maggie Freeling]

We know a story that law enforcement used to convict six people and that got the citizen investigator on national tv.

[DJ Envy]

Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran.

[Maggie Freeling]

My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist producer and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find.

[DJ Envy]

I did not know her and I did not kill her or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y' all said.

[Jess Hilarious]

They literally made me say that I.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Took a match and struck and threw it on her.

[Jess Hilarious]

They made me say that I poured gas on her.

Michael Lewis here My book the Big Short tells the story of the buildup and birth of the US housing market back in 2008. It follows a few unlikely but lucky.

[Just Hilarious]

People who saw the real estate market.

[DJ Envy]

Market for the black hole it would become and eventually made billions of dollars from that perception. It was like feeding the monster, said Eisman. We fed the monster until it blew up. The monster was exploding, yet on the streets of Manhattan, there was no sign anything important had just happened. Now, 15 years after the Big Short's original release and a decade after it became an Academy Award Award winning movie, I've recorded an audiobook edition for the very first time. The Big Short story, what it means when people start betting against the market and who really pays for an unchecked financial system is as relevant today as it's ever been, offering invaluable insight into the current economy and also today's politics.

Institute in New York City.

[Lauren LaRosa]

On this show, I'll be talking to top researchers and top clinicians, asking them your burning questions and bringing them that information about women's health and midlife directly to you.

[Molly Lambert]

100% of women go through menopause.

[Lauren LaRosa]

It can be such a struggle for.

[DJ Envy]

Our quality of life, but even if it's natural, why should we suffer through it?

[Just Hilarious]

The types of symptoms that people talk.

[DJ Envy]

About is forgetting everything. I never used to forget things.

[Maggie Freeling]

They're concerned that one, they have dementia.

[Just Hilarious]

[Charlemagne the God]

Have to change. I live a whole life. Most people depending on who walks in, the bishop walks in, the CEO walks in. Oh, a celebrity walks in. They are trying to figure out who do I need to be right now.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Now.

[Just Hilarious]

So if you curse in front of your friends, you should curse in front of your mama or you're a faker.

[Charlemagne the God]

Yes.

[Jess Hilarious]

Well, this is the thing that sounds. This is the thing with my butt.

[Charlemagne the God]

Yes.

[Jess Hilarious]

So that's the thing though, you know what I'm saying?

[Charlemagne the God]

So the truth of the matter is because there's a reason why she doesn't want you to talk like that. And you're choosing to go beyond that because I'm gonna live my own life. It's your own personal convictions. I'm just saying that I'd rather you be the same way so that God could actually change you instead of him having to find which version of you you gonna be today.

[DJ Envy]

Is it conditioning or conviction? And what I mean by that is, as Jess said, we're all conditioned to not talk like that in front of our parents for the most part.

[Charlemagne the God]

Right?

[DJ Envy]

So is it conditioning our conviction? Like, because I don't care in front of my mom, just cause I know she ain't going for it right again?

[Charlemagne the God]

I think it could actually be the. It's conditioning. Like, you know that for especially in a black household, like there are certain things you don't do here, here. But wait till y' all kids start doing it. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[Lauren LaRosa]

God damn.

[Jess Hilarious]

I mean.

[Charlemagne the God]

Oh my God, not you. What'd you say? No, no, I don't. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[Just Hilarious]

Hell no.

[Charlemagne the God]

Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[DJ Envy]

No. But I have asked my 17 year old, when she was younger, 16, I said, do you curse? And she was like, yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

So all of you. Can I, can I, can I just be as your brother?

[Jess Hilarious]

Yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

You're living in a state of delusion. Watch, watch, watch. Because you literally are doing the same thing your parents did to you. You've been conditioned and you know your kids are doing the same thing. You're doing. But for respect purposes, you would rather not teach them how to have a, a stronger vocabulary or teach them a reason why they cuss or do it. You would rather just be a secret from you and just don't do it around me. But then you could go on online and see them cussing out people and listen, all of y' all are like, it's a respect thing. And it's like, like all we're doing is keeping the cycle going. We're not changing language. We're not increasing vocabulary. We're not giving reasons or even understanding reasons why they're doing it. All we're doing is creating a barrier for them to be inauthentic around us. And so most parents are not the people their kids go to when they're in need because there's all of these micro fake things that we put up around ourselves. So when I'm really struggling, I'm not coming to you because I can't be real because I'm pissed that these people did this. And I need to cuss to whoever I'm talking to to right now. And I can't cuss to my parents because it's disrespectful. So I got hurt and I'm pissed and I'm mad and I can't do this. And we condition them to do that. So all I'm saying to you is like, it's delusional.

[DJ Envy]

I do, I, I, I, I don't disagree with you, but I feel like we're kind of conflating two issues. And what I mean by that is when my kids, when my daughter should be 18 next year, she cursed in front of me. I don't, I don't care at that point.

[Charlemagne the God]

You're just talking about in the season that you're raising her.

[DJ Envy]

Absolutely.

[Charlemagne the God]

I love and I get it.

[DJ Envy]

And I also think that. Dang, I think I lost mother point. Oh, I did lose my other point. It's all right. But that, that is in the season.

[Charlemagne the God]

I do believe the Bible says train a child in the way they should go so when they get old, they won't depart from it. It's not just what you say, though. It is what you do. You're training them both ways. So if you're teaching your children or teaching anybody, hey, you can do this. Just don't do it around me. Is that really what we're trying to teach them?

[DJ Envy]

I'm just teaching them that everything. There's a season for everything thing. You turn 18, you an adult now, you can Have a conversation. The other thing I was going to say is I don't think. Oh, that's.

[Charlemagne the God]

That was.

[DJ Envy]

I was talking about. I don't think cursing is a barrier that keeps children from wanting to be open with you. I think that you just want to establish a level of trust to where they feel like they can talk to you about anything. I don't think them having the curse keeps that.

[Charlemagne the God]

I think the way that some parents act when their kids say things they hear their parents say does create barriers. I'm gonna just leave it at that. I counsel and work with a lot of that do not have healthy relationships with their parents.

[DJ Envy]

If you act like this over a curse word, imagine how you act if I tell you I'm having sex or.

[Charlemagne the God]

I'm a lesbian or I, I, I tried these drugs or over, Over. Damn.

[DJ Envy]

I get it.

[Charlemagne the God]

No, I'm not talking to you.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

And so I'm. I'm just saying from the other side of helping a lot of people's kids who are adults that are 33 and 35 and 42 and at gravesite fights, forgiving their parents because of how they didn't have interaction with them. I'm just saying, like, I would.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

I would do it a little different.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

I want to ask you, Mike, Pastor Todd, about this. They said. Pastor Michael Todd slammed for distracting outfit during sermon on faith. And they said you had on what was considered feminine preaching attire.

[Charlemagne the God]

You had a dress on.

[DJ Envy]

I don't have no dress on. So I was gonna ask. When clips of your sermons go viral, sometimes, I guess for the wrong reasons. How do you handle being, Saying, misinterpret.

[Just Hilarious]

What's feminine about that?

[Charlemagne the God]

You tell me, bro.

[DJ Envy]

It's.

[Charlemagne the God]

It's black slacks, wide leg. That's in trend. It's a black shirt, and it's a cropped leather top.

[Molly Lambert]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

And it's. And it's got Chelsea boots on that are yellow. So the truth.

[DJ Envy]

They didn't know you had that shape. They used it in 270. 75.

[Charlemagne the God]

And the thing is, nobody said anything to me when my belly was literally folding over my belt. I was more holy then. Like, but, but, but, but. Because I got fit and healthy and I can wear a larger medium now. It's feminine.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

It's the culture we live in. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, the truth of the matter is to play ball at this level, there's going to be opinions and pressure.

[Just Hilarious]

How do you take people serious with that? They forget your word, but they look at it.

[DJ Envy]

I was thinking. I'm like, well, damn. The first thing I thought was like, I want to go hear what you're talking about.

[Charlemagne the God]

Yeah, right.

[DJ Envy]

Literally, I'm like, I want to go hear the word.

[Charlemagne the God]

And, and again, that's part of the reason why I have critics. And anybody that decides to do anything other than stay in the house will have critics. And it's part of the process that God allows me to endure to be more like him. I. I pray for all those people.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

Now that's the hard part. The hard part is seeing Christ Man 666 say something about me and, and having to be like God. I thank you, Father. Whatever made him post that comment or say that, I thank you that you would heal his heart and give him the ability to have grace and capacity for other people. Like, that's hard. And, and, but that's what the Bible tells us to do. That's like, love your enemy, Pray for them. Pray for those who despitefully use you. These people don't know me. And the truth of the matter, the reason I wore that is because my wife told me she liked it.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

Like, literally that morning, my wife was like, I like that one. It was between this one and this one. And she's like, I like that one. So the crazy thing is, like, those are just things to distract you.

[DJ Envy]

Right.

[Charlemagne the God]

And for me, I have to stay focused and I have too much to do in this world and to be. Be put off by that.

[Jess Hilarious]

Is it wrong to be inspired by, you know, the word of another preacher? Because a lot of people, right, they think if they go to church and they hear one, one person say this and preach their sermon this way or whatever, whatever, and then they go and they see somebody else say it, then it's stealing.

[Charlemagne the God]

No.

[Jess Hilarious]

You know what I'm saying? Like bars and a rap song.

[DJ Envy]

No.

[Jess Hilarious]

You know, well, if that's the, if.

[Charlemagne the God]

That'S the case, then we stealing from Paul, John, we're stealing from David. We're still. No, no. The gospel is meant to be shared. And the only reason that people try to corner the market on something is because they're insecure that they'll ever get anything else. The truth of the matter is that protection of, like, I said it like this, I said it like that. Like, if the whole goal is that the gospel of Jesus Christ be proclaimed so that everybody would know about him. If you don't know how to talk a certain way, please use my words and tell them if that helped you, you help them with it. Like, this is the kingdom of God. And again, because the kingdom, in a lot of areas has been turned into an organization instead of an organism. Like, then people are like, now it's my. You know, my property and my this. And I said it like this. And it's like, yo, I tell young preachers all the time, take my stuff.

[Molly Lambert]

Yeah.

[Charlemagne the God]

Preach it exactly how I preach it. We have people do it all the time. I send people my notes. Like, yeah, what are you talking about? Like, this is the inspired word of God. Like, there are certain lines, like, if I put it in a book and say it a certain way, and the company I'm partnering with has a contract that it has to be said. You can't take that. But, like, my messages and, like, how I said it, like, just. My only thing is, do it better.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Jess Hilarious]

Now would you like them to credit you? At least I got this.

[DJ Envy]

Awesome. Okay.

[Charlemagne the God]

But I mean, how many of us wear clothes that was inspired by somebody you saw on Instagram and we don't credit them? It's like, oh, that shit is crazy.

[DJ Envy]

I'm a.

[Charlemagne the God]

And so, yeah, like, everybody wants to be recognized. Everybody wants credit. But for me, I know it's gonna happen because of the level that God has raised my platform to. For whatever reason that somebody's gonna take that stuff. And my prayer is that it helps them the way it helped you.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah. I saw them accuse you of taking some. Some. Some pastor's sermon, word for word. I didn't listen to it, but I'm.

[Charlemagne the God]

Like, it's the word. It's the word, bro. And if somebody. If somebody's breaking something down in a way that makes me understand, like, y' all just said, a lot of this stuff is confusing. A lot of this stuff is we gotta figure it out. So if somebody gets a revelation or gets understanding or it's like, oh, it's like, yes, copy paste. Like, tell some other people. And this is the other thing that everybody has to remember. How you say it will be different because you have different oil than them. Like, there's a different thing on your life than what they have on their life. I think I heard Sarah Jake say it a couple days ago that. That, like, you can take the recipe, you can take. You can take the plans, but when we do it.

[DJ Envy]

Because that oil difference. Different process. I went through different.

[Charlemagne the God]

And so. And so that's. Oh, she is a beast. Her and Torre are doing an amazing job in Dallas. And. And again, it's kingdom. So I. I went to their installation service. I didn't preach at my church. And went there. Cuz people need to see this is not about one thing. This is about the kingdom of God. And so, yeah, man, I for everybody psa. If you hear Pastor Mike preach something or something and you feel like it could help your Bible study or your youth group or your a big church or little church, you can use that, man, help people get to Jesus.

[Just Hilarious]

There you go. Well, let's end this on a prayer.

[Charlemagne the God]

Father, I thank you for this day. I thank you for the opportunity to share with my brothers and sister. I thank you for all the things that you're doing in each of our lives and all the lives of the listeners today. God, I thank you that we all go on a journey of progression. Faith is something that we actually know is real, but it's something we all have to discover. And so I thank you that you would allow everybody that's in this room and that's listening to have an experience with you that would be undeniable. I thank you, Father. As people are getting furloughed right now and going through situations that are literally unimaginable in America, I thank you, Father God, that you would be peace that passes their understanding, make ways out of no way do things that no man could do. Father God, with man it's impossible, but with God, it is possible. Today, Father God, I'm thanking you that all things are working together for the good of those who are called. Called and that love you. And Father, if somebody does not know you, if somebody has been far from you, Father, thank you that your love even through this interview, is drawing them back home. I thank you for transformation happening in people's lives. And I thank you that people would get to know the way, the truth and the life. Jesus. In Jesus name we pray. Amen. Appreciate y', all, man.

He was surrounded by his family, including his wife and his daughter Liz. And he's known as one of the, you know, most powerful vice presidents in U. S. History. So as this news breaks, just wanted to make sure we mentioned here as well. In other news yesterday, Sherry shepherd received her star on the Walk of Fame, and it was such a great ceremony.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Spiritual person, and I know that I.

[Jess Hilarious]

Would not be here without my Lord and my savior, Jesus Christ.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Because like Tyler said and Niecy said, you don't see what goes on behind.

[Jess Hilarious]

The smile, but God does.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Those deep desires that you never change.

[Jess Hilarious]

Talk to anybody about those dreams that you have. God knows those dreams. And so I'm so grateful for everything.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You have done for me and those.

[Jess Hilarious]

Dreams of mine, those tears that you have wiped up. Father God, I thank you. I thank you that you've never left me nor forsaken me. I thank you, Father God, that you've always said, do you trust me? And sometimes I was honest and said, hell, no, I don't. But that you never gave up on me and you never stopped loving me.

[DJ Envy]

That's right. Dropping the coolest bombs to Sherri shepherd, man. Yeah, well, deserving, too, by the way.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yes. She has worked so hard and just watching her transition through different phases of her career from comedy to TV to now, like, daytime talk. So Niecy Nash talked for her a bit. You know, they come up and give, you know, speeches, close friends, all the other things. So Niecy Nash talked about just her come up in this, and her speech was also very emotional. Let's take a listen to Niecy Nash. Nash. Almost 30 years ago, I stepped onto my first comedy stage to do stand up.

[Molly Lambert]

And the host said, give it up.

[Lauren LaRosa]

For the sassy single mama, Niecy Nash.

[Jess Hilarious]

And that host was the Sherry Yvonne Shepherd.

[Lauren LaRosa]

She followed me into the bathroom and.

[Jess Hilarious]

Said, girl, you Funny.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And I looked back at her and.

[Jess Hilarious]

Said, girl, I know.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And we have been been tethered ever since. I remember us dreaming in my mama's.

[Jess Hilarious]

Back room about all of the success and all of the things that we wanted to make happen.

[Lauren LaRosa]

To know that even at her worst points in life, she has given her.

[Jess Hilarious]

Gift to bring other people joy. I would have never thought that these.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Two girls, well, international in my mama's.

[Jess Hilarious]

Back room would both have have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame right across the street from each other. That's amazing. Shout out to niece and Sher Shepherd. Yeah, that's dope.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And lastly, Tyler Perry was there as well too, who we know has been very like, you know, influential in her career. And he had a few words that he shared.

[DJ Envy]

People on the planet that were sent here to bring light. And then there are other people who are here to be light.

[Charlemagne the God]

Light.

[DJ Envy]

Sherry is a person that is light.

[Charlemagne the God]

When she walks in the room, you feel it.

[DJ Envy]

You know it. She makes everybody feel seen. That's a special gift and I'm thankful to God that he gave it to you. And I got a chance to witness it up close. You are really an incredible human being.

[Jess Hilarious]

That's amazing.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah. And she has her. Her Make It Make Sense comedy tour. I saw that the tickets were on sale for that as well right now too. So just all these good things happening for her. But whenever people get their Walk of Fame, like stars and they have all the people come out and do the speeches. When I listen to the speeches, like one of the things that I always listen for is like how they've impacted different people throughout different phases of their life. And with Sherri shepherd, like, I don't know, I just. I met her recently because her coming on the Breakfast Club. But like when they talk about like her coming into a room. I met her recently and every time I see her, she takes a moment to kind of like get me together and pour life into me. I love people that are actually good people doing good things, getting what they deserve. And it feels like that's what's happening for her. So congratulations to her.

[Just Hilarious]

Yes, absolutely.

[DJ Envy]

[Lauren LaRosa]

She does it way better than you. Okay. You're evil.

We'll get to that.

[Just Hilarious]

Next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

[Charlemagne the God]

Your execution on the donkey of the day is something to behold.

[Just Hilarious]

Is it a read?

[Lauren LaRosa]

He gave me?

[DJ Envy]

Don't.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Donkey of the day.

[Jess Hilarious]

And I deserve the people need to know. Well, you need to tell them.

[Charlemagne the God]

I am.

[DJ Envy]

You have the voice.

[Charlemagne the God]

Tell them it's time for donkey of the day.

[Jess Hilarious]

It's a read. But you're so good at it.

[DJ Envy]

You're trying to be a fake ass.

[Charlemagne the God]

Charlamagne.

[Just Hilarious]

There's only one Charlemagne.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Damn Charlemagne. Who you giving Dunkey of the day to now?

[DJ Envy]

Well, sexy red donkey of the day for Tuesday November 4th election day goes to a 39 year old Milwaukee man named Charles Legette. I'm not even even joking. Sometimes I read stories and I Say to myself, what world do I not live in? Okay? Because sometimes I feel like an extraterrestrial looking at a version of Earth that I don't live in. Okay, See, I'm fully aware that crazy is, is crazy does and crazy is all around us. But sometimes I read certain stories and I think to myself, what model human is this? Okay, see, Charles is 39 years old. So he was born in 1986. And I have a theory, theory that after about 83, 84, definitely 85, the universe just started making any old body. Okay? I didn't say God. All right? What I think happened was God got busy. It's a lot going on in all these various universes and afterlives. So God regulated some duties and the manufacturing of humans changed drastically. Okay? Same ingredients, different recipes. And Charles Leggett is yet another example of boy, they just don't make Homo sapiens like they used to. Okay, see, Charles is in jail. Jail for first degree reckless homicide in possession of a firearm by a felon. I know one of you bad recipes is out there thinking what's wrong with first degree reckless homicide? It's always been a reason to kill somebody. By the way, if you believe that, you should be arrested right now. Now what is Charles in jail for? Let's go to Fox 6 News Milwaukee for the report, please. He went there and my brother, he's.

[Just Hilarious]

Tried to stand to talk to him.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And he shot him in the chest. Muhammad always says his 26 year old brother Jamil always got shot during an argument over a pizza order at this convenience store on Martin Luther King Drive Saturday. Prosecutors say 38 year old Charles Leggett.

[DJ Envy]

Told them he ordered a pizza but was upset that a worker was not wearing gloves while preparing the pizza. Leggett told investigators he and always got into an argument.

[Lauren LaRosa]

He also confirmed that it was him in the surveillance video of the shooting.

[DJ Envy]

Shooting.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Leggett is charged with first degree reckless homicide for the use of a dangerous weapon and possession of a firearm by.

[DJ Envy]

Outstate felon shot and killed him. All because the person who made his pizza wasn't wearing gloves. Okay? There is not a pizza alive worth killing over, okay? Not Papa John's, Domino's Pizza Hut Blaze Pizza. Now I might curse you out over cuts and slices. In New York City drop on a clues bomb for cuts and slices. Okay? That's some pizza worth. Maybe a verbal altercation, okay? If you got into a fist fight over cuts and slices, I might understand. But Milwaukee, this man killed someone over a pizza being made at Action Food. And liquor near King Drive and Keith Avenue. Okay, Salute to everyone who listens to us on B107 in Milwaukee. Does that pizza slap like that? Okay, like what? What the hell's going on? It has to be in order for Charles to get so triggered right. Now, I'm gonna be honest with you. This is one of the reasons I don't like to eat out. I've noticed this, that folks don't be using gloves. And I feel like, I remember reading that, that some of them feel like it's more unsanitary to wear gloves, because with gloves, you're touching everything. So you're actually getting a lot more germs on the gloves. But when you don't wear gloves, you're constantly washing your hands before you touch things. And since you're constantly washing your hands, that's considered more sanitary. People who do that line of work for a living, feel free to call me and let me know if I got that right. 1-800-585-1051. Now, even though I've seen people making food with no gloves on and I may not like it, you know what I never thought about doing to that individual? Killing them. All right? My brain just does not work that way. Some things you really have to go out of your way to do, I would think, okay, but I was born in 1978, so I'm an old model, all right? The model I am came with some common sense, the ability to reason, the ability to make choices. Now, did we always make the right choices?

[Charlemagne the God]

No.

[DJ Envy]

And I've seen people killed for some stupid things. But killing someone because they weren't wearing gloves while making your pizza is a new level of stupid. Okay? Charles, if you upset that the person making your pizza wasn't wearing gloves, how you gonna feel in prison when the person sodomizing you from the back isn't wearing a condom and you're not gonna have no pistol to protect yourself? That man gonna be touching your cheeks with no gloves. And it's gonna be in that moment that you realized you made the wrong decision. Okay? Let me tell you something. We keep saying we gotta stop killing each other. But then you see a Someone loses their life over some pizza. Every single time you pull a trigger over some foolishness, you're not just ending one life. You're ending too the victims in your own. Some of y' all out here turning minor disagreements into major crimes like it's a sport, okay? You can't control your temper. You can't control your ego or your impulses. Permanent decisions becoming, you know. No. Temporary feelings becoming permanent decision decisions. Okay. No, what am I saying? Permanent decisions over temporary fitness. Yes, that's what I'm trying to say. Okay, this is why I'd be stressing going to therapy. This is why I'd be stressing folks, especially men, to heal what's hurting them because they end up projecting that pain onto others. This wasn't about pizza. This was about trauma. And when you don't deal with your trauma, you bleed on people who didn't even cut you. It's. It's so much in this story. Gun violence, mental health issues. I would just end like this. Real men, you don't shoot to prove a point. You walk away to preserve one. Please let Remy Ma give Charles Leggette the biggest.

[Jess Hilarious]

He haw hee haw.

[Just Hilarious]

He ha.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You stupid.

[Jess Hilarious]

Are you dumb?

[DJ Envy]

And Charles has been found guilty in a court of law, by the way. Okay? He was found guilty over that argument over pizza. And he's sentenced to be. He's scheduled to be sentenced on December 17th. Yes. Okay. Yeah, man.

[Charlemagne the God]

It's.

[Just Hilarious]

It's homicide.

[Lauren LaRosa]

What?

[DJ Envy]

I said homo side. That's what you heard.

[Just Hilarious]

No, that's what you said. It's homicide. Homicide.

[DJ Envy]

Oh, I can't pronounce things.

[Just Hilarious]

All right, we know.

[DJ Envy]

Well, speaking of homo side. All right, real men don't shoot to prove they hard. They walk away because they don't want to end up in prison with a man with a hard penis. All right, man. Clapping your cheeks from the back. Okay. Humming Take me through there. Take me through there. Okay.

[Charlemagne the God]

One.

[DJ Envy]

Can you imagine?

[Just Hilarious]

No, I don't want to imagine that. Jesus. All right, well, that was donkey of the day. All right, now when we come back, 800-585-1051. Now, Pastor Mike Todd was just on the show, and he talked about something where I see people asking about. He talked about your kids cursing in front of you, and this is what he said about it.

[Charlemagne the God]

Stop putting everything on.

[Jess Hilarious]

On.

[Charlemagne the God]

On God and say, like, I don't like when you cuss around me.

[Just Hilarious]

But certain things are respect, though. Like, you ain't gonna curse around your mama.

[Jess Hilarious]

You are.

[Charlemagne the God]

Certainly some people do, depending on who your mama is. If you don't do it around your mama, but you do it around everybody else, you're a faker.

[DJ Envy]

We're all conditioned to not talk like that in front of our parents. Parents for the most part.

[Charlemagne the God]

Right.

[DJ Envy]

So is it conditioning our conviction, like, because I don't care. Time for a sofa upgrade.

All I know is what I've been told and that to have truth is a whole lie.

[Maggie Freeling]

For almost a decade, the murder of an 18 year old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky went unsolved until a local homemaker, a journalist and a handful of girls came forward with a story.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm telling you, we know Quincy killed her.

[Maggie Freeling]

We know a story that law enforcement used to convict six people and that got the citizen investigator on national tv.

[DJ Envy]

Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran.

[Maggie Freeling]

My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist producer and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find.

[DJ Envy]

I did not know her and I did not kill her or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y' all said.

[Jess Hilarious]

They literally made me say that I.

They made me say that I poured gas on her.

[DJ Envy]

Just because I know she ain't going for it.

[Jess Hilarious]

Right.

[Charlemagne the God]

It's conditioning. Like, you know that for. Especially in the black household, like, there are certain things you don't do here. But wait till y' all kids start doing it. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[DJ Envy]

God damn.

[Jess Hilarious]

I mean, oh, my God, not you.

[Just Hilarious]

What'd you say?

[Charlemagne the God]

No, no, I don't. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[Just Hilarious]

Hell no.

[Charlemagne the God]

Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[DJ Envy]

No. But I have asked my 17 year old, when she was younger, 16, I said, do you curse? And she was like, yes, I understand what Pastor Michael Todd was saying, what.

[Jess Hilarious]

He was saying too, but I don't agree with it.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah, I don't get it. What he was saying was, you know, if you. Because we didn't play that part, I don't think. But, you know, if you, if you punish your child for doing something like cursing in front of you, they might not come to you with bigger issues because they're like, damn, if I curse in front of my parents, this is how they discipline.

[Jess Hilarious]

React like this.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah, so. So why would I come with something else? Like if I, if I want, if I had sex of drugs.

[Just Hilarious]

But cursing is not the same of, of having sex and drugs and asking those questions. Right.

[DJ Envy]

I think it's a form of building trust.

[Just Hilarious]

No, it's not. Respect.

[DJ Envy]

And that's why I told him we're conflating two different issues. Like, he's basically saying, if you, if you, if you punish your child for cursing, they won't come to you with other things.

[Just Hilarious]

No, you're not punishing your child for cursing. You're telling your child not to curse because of a respecting. The same way you tell your kids, if there's an elder person, you say, sir or maybe ma'.

[DJ Envy]

Am. Yes.

[Just Hilarious]

But you, you also tell your kids, no, you don't curse in front of me. I'm not your friend. You show me the respect. Just like you don't curse in front of your teacher. You know, I mean, but that doesn't mean your child's a fake or you're a faker. If you don't curse in front of your mom, but you're cursing in front of your parents.

[DJ Envy]

But that's why I said we're conflating two different issues. Like, he's talking about if you curse in front of your parents and then your parent punishes you for cursing, that may make the child not come with bigger issues. I felt like we were talking about two or three different things in that one conversation.

[Jess Hilarious]

So we were about talking. Talking about two different things. But overall, he was just saying that we are teaching our kids the same thing. We were conditioned to think, like, you know what I mean? Like that. That's like a generation thing. You couldn't curse in front of your mother because she didn't like that. All right, so we train our kids the same way, and we're conditioning them unintentionally to, like, be afraid of us. That's like what he was saying, you.

[Just Hilarious]

Know, I don't think it has anything to do with fear. I think it has to do with respect. Let's take your calls. When we come back. 800-585-10511. What are your thoughts? He said that if you don't curse in front of your parents, but you coasting and curse in front of your friends, you're a faker. I don't agree. Let's discuss. 800-585-1051 is the breakfast Club. Good morning.

[DJ Envy]

Call me. Add your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic. Break it down. 800-585-1051.

[DJ Envy]

With the Breakfast Club.

[Just Hilarious]

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Jess. Hilarious. Charlemagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're opening up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. We're talking about Pastor Michael Todd. He was saying that if you don't curse in front of your parents, but you curse in front of your friends, you. You are considered a faker. Let's listen to what he said.

[Charlemagne the God]

Stop putting everything on on God and say, like, I don't like when you cuss around me.

[Just Hilarious]

But certain things of respect, though, like, you ain't gonna curse around your mama.

[Charlemagne the God]

You are certainly some people do, depending on who your mama is. If you don't do it around your mama, but you do it around everybody else, you're a faker.

[DJ Envy]

We're all conditioned to not talk like that in front of our parents. Parents for the most part, Right? So is it conditioning our conviction? Like, because I don't care in front of my mom, just because I know know she ain't going for it, right?

[Charlemagne the God]

It's conditioning. Like, you know that for especially in a black household, like, there are certain things you don't do here. But wait till y' all kids start doing it. Do you let your kids cuss in Front of you?

[Jess Hilarious]

God damn. I mean, oh, my God, not you.

[Just Hilarious]

What'd you say?

[Charlemagne the God]

No, no, I don't. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[Just Hilarious]

Hell no.

[Charlemagne the God]

Do you let your kids cuss in front of you?

[DJ Envy]

No. But I have asked my 17 year old, when she was younger, 16, I said, do you curse? And she was like, yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

So all of you, can I. Can I. Can I just be as your brother?

[Jess Hilarious]

Yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

You're living in a state of delusion.

[Just Hilarious]

All right, so we're taking your calls. 800-585-1051. Also, you guys on the chat, you guys could chime in. What's your thoughts? What do you think?

[Jess Hilarious]

Chat, Chat. No, I'm not for my kids cussing in front of me. Well, Marley is one, but my son, he's 13, and he's at that age where, you know, I'll hear him on the game. He don't know that I hear him. But my son is very respectful when it comes to cursing. He does not like. He don't even like to hear me curse too much. He'd be like, chill, ma. Like, chill. You know what I mean? So I don't agree with that. But I was also taught that, like, I can't curse in front of my mother. Now me and my dad, we got a different relationship. He was a lot more lenient. As I was a kid I was growing up, I was always able to say curse words and, you know, things like that. Drink around my dad, but one side of my family is stricter than the other side, you know, so when I'm around my mom, I dare not do any of that. Ish. I can't. My dad, we, like, that's like, that's my best friend.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm a daddy's girl.

[Jess Hilarious]

We closest. So it's different. Different, you know, But I don't. I don't let my kids curse in front of me. And my son don't do it anyway.

[Just Hilarious]

He don't try to see. I think manners is different in trust.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yes.

[Just Hilarious]

Like, you're taught manners, right? To say, yes, ma'. Am. Yes, sir. You're taught not to curse. There's certain things that you are taught to do as a young child growing into adulthood, that has nothing to do with trust. My kids will come up to me and if they want to curse or if they want to say something, they'll be like, permission to curse.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Okay.

[Just Hilarious]

Maybe they heard a story or they heard somebody say. And we'll say, yeah, say what you have to say. My kids have an amazing relationship, definitely with moms. They'll tell mom everything. Me, I'm just. I'm the.

[Jess Hilarious]

I'm your dad.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm the disciplinary.

[Charlemagne the God]

Right.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Mom is more of the understanding, and I'm fine with that. But my kids don't curse. And to this day, I do not curse in front of my mother. I will talk like it's.

[Jess Hilarious]

It's.

[Just Hilarious]

It's to my mom, because it's just a matter. It's just a level of respect. I'm sure my mother. My father wouldn't care, but it's just a level of respect. And my kids are the same way. They're not going to curse. And that has nothing to do with trust. I think it has to do with manners. What you think, Charlotte?

[DJ Envy]

Yeah. I don't curse in front of my. My parents out of respect. I think I might curse in front of my pops every now and then now, you know, but never in front of my mom. And I don't. I don't think that makes you fake. Like I told Pastor Todd, that's just conditioning. Right? That's what we've been. We've been taught to do. And I think that is the respectful thing. But I also feel like we were conflating a few different convos, you know, while we were having that conversation with Pastor Todd, because what Pastor Todd was saying, if you punish your child over something like a curse word word, then they may not bring the bigger things to you because of how you reacted over the curse word. So I guess he's essentially saying, you know, let your child curse in front of you. You know, don't trip over that, because that will build more trust. I don't know if that's necessarily the case, but I did understand what he was saying.

[Jess Hilarious]

I understand what he was trying to. You know, what he was trying to say when he was getting that. Because he did break it down later, and we didn't play that part. But. Yeah, I still don't agree with that piece of it. It's not about cursing.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, I don't agree.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Hello? Who's this?

[Lauren LaRosa]

Hi.

[Caller/Listener]

Good morning. This is Joyce.

[Just Hilarious]

Joyce.

[Charlemagne the God]

Come on, Joyce.

[Just Hilarious]

What's your thoughts?

[Caller/Listener]

So my thoughts is I agree with you. I just find it crazy to think that kids can't find another way to speak without cursing. And if they have to curse to speak to you, that means they feel unsafe. Like, how ridiculous does that sound? It's about control and having respect for adults.

[DJ Envy]

I agree.

[Caller/Listener]

My child should still be able to speak to me without cursing and not Feeling like they can't. Right. That's like. I don't even understand how those two come into comparison. My kid can't curse, so they don't feel safe. Like, that was like the episode of Blackish when they had let the kid curse because he cursed in the house. But now they're gonna curse in front of you. It just. It makes. It makes no sense. 1. And they don't go together.

[DJ Envy]

It doesn't. Well, I. Well, you know what? Listen, whether it's curse person, kids want to feel like they can trust you. I don't think. First of all, I don't think kids should curse in front of their parents. That's just my thing. Right. It's like, I don't think kids should be calling their parents body first name.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

But I do understand what Pastor Todd is saying. Kids just want to feel like they can trust you.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

When they come to you with things, and if they know that you're gonna bug out over something like a curse word, why would they come to you with something bigger than that?

[Jess Hilarious]

But you can tell me what you have to tell me without the curse word. You know, unless you're, like, saying something to somebody told you or said to you, you know, you're demonstrating something or you're telling me something, and I'm like, all right, wait, what did they say? You know, but you. You don't have to curse to get your point across to let me know.

[Just Hilarious]

It seems like he's. He's scared to discipline your child. Right. Because.

[Jess Hilarious]

Oh, I.

[Just Hilarious]

If you bug out when your kid curses. No, but as a child, you need to be disciplined. There's things that you do wrong that you need to be told, no, this is wrong.

[Charlemagne the God]

Right.

[Just Hilarious]

And that doesn't mean that your kid doesn't trust you.

[DJ Envy]

But is a curse word one of those things?

[Jess Hilarious]

Yes.

[Charlemagne the God]

Cursing is wrong.

[DJ Envy]

Like, if you hear your. If you hear your fight. And this actually happened to me. Me. You know, the. The one time I've ever spanked any of my kids, my daughter was like three or four, and it's because she said the F word. Oh. She might have been older than that. I don't. Maybe like five or six. I don't remember. But she said the F word. And after I, you know, gave her a couple of pops, I felt so stupid. And the reason I felt so stupid is because I'm like, why am I disciplining a child for saying a word that she probably heard us say and she's repeating. She don't even know what that word Means she's just repeating what she heard.

[Just Hilarious]

I wouldn't have popped her for that, but I would have, would have definitely reprimanded her and told her that's an adult word and you're not allowed to say that.

[Jess Hilarious]

That's the thing. So.

[Just Hilarious]

Because like you said, she probably heard it from you or she probably heard it from the.

[DJ Envy]

She don't even know what it means.

[Just Hilarious]

I would have popped it, but I would have definitely come back and you.

[Jess Hilarious]

Tell her like, look, my daughter 17.

[DJ Envy]

She remember that to this day. I don't even know if she is really remembers it or she just does that cuz she knows I feel really bad about it. And we, we've talked about it over the years, but it's just like, yeah, I remember when you popped me cuz I cursed. Like I don't believe she actually remembers, you know what I'm saying? But my point is that cancer money.

[Just Hilarious]

No, remember that time you probably was cursing.

[DJ Envy]

Here you go. But my point is, I understand what Pastor Todd is saying because you know, those little things do make kids feel like, well, if he popped me over that, I'm definitely not going to tell him about this. Right? It can happen. I'm not.

[Jess Hilarious]

Now that can be one of two ways because like say that same say if that five year old was me and my father popped me for saying that. It's like, all right, now I know that's a bad word word. You know what I'm saying? It's, it's all about perspective, how you look at it. Because all right, I know that's a bad word. I know I'm gonna be able to say it later around my friends and all that. But it's a respect level that was still like, you disagree with what you did after you thought about it. But that still told her that was wrong to say. I wasn't supposed to say that. You know what I'm saying?

[DJ Envy]

We should have just educated her. Yeah, that's not a word that you say.

[Charlemagne the God]

Absolutely.

[Just Hilarious]

800-585-105. When we're taking your call calls, let's discuss this. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

[DJ Envy]

If y' all talking about it, you know we talking about it. It's topic time.

[Just Hilarious]

Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion.

[DJ Envy]

With the Breakfast Club.

[Just Hilarious]

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. If you're just joining us, we're talking about Pastor Michael Todd. He was talking about, he says if your kids if you don't curse in front of your parents, but you curse in front of your friends, you are considered a faker. He wants the east, basically saying your kids will lose trust if you reprimand them for cursing. I don't agree.

[DJ Envy]

Discipline.

[Just Hilarious]

I don't agree. I. I think kids need to be disciplined. I think I needed to be disciplined as a child.

[DJ Envy]

I do agree, though, because you said yourself that your kids go to your. Your. Your white life for things because they know you, the disciplinarian.

[Jess Hilarious]

No, they don't curse at you.

[DJ Envy]

They don't come to you with everything because they know how you gonna react. So they rather go to mom first.

[Just Hilarious]

Well, they have a time. They have. They have a tighter relationship with mom.

[DJ Envy]

Because they know one.

[Just Hilarious]

Mom takes them to school every day. Mom gets them dressed every day while we're at work. So mom does a lot of the things that dad doesn't do.

[DJ Envy]

And they know mom is the filter. You give it to mom, mom gonna hear what you got to say, then mom gonna come to you. Correct. Because mom know how to talk to you. And you ain't gonna jump off the ledge because mom. Mom then briefed you.

[Just Hilarious]

Correct.

[DJ Envy]

So, I mean, I get it.

[Just Hilarious]

Correct. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello? Who's this?

[Caller/Listener]

Hi, this Shay.

[Just Hilarious]

Hey, Jay. What's your thoughts?

[Caller/Listener]

No, Shay.

[DJ Envy]

I heard you, Shay.

[Jess Hilarious]

Oh, yeah. She definitely cussed her parents.

[Caller/Listener]

No, I actually don't. That's what I wanted to say. Like, I would never. Like, I'm 36 years old and like, you know, I tell my parents everything, but it's just like, I don't curse around, like, older folks. It's just something I don't like. I don't know. I just don't feel comfortable doing it. Even if I slip up, I would be like, oh, I'm sorry. You know what I mean? It don't mean I'm hiding anything or being fake to them. I'm just respectful.

[Jess Hilarious]

Exactly.

[DJ Envy]

I'm the same way. I'm the same exact way.

[Just Hilarious]

And like I said, I think everything is managed. There was a time, I think maybe about a year ago or maybe two years ago, where the whole thing was bruh, right? My kids were like, bruh.

[Jess Hilarious]

That was the trend.

[Just Hilarious]

Who are you calling? Yeah, it was the trend.

[DJ Envy]

I don't curse around my elders. Why you looking at me like that? I do not curse around my elders in no way, shape or form. All right?

[Jess Hilarious]

Your family or just elders, period.

[DJ Envy]

Elders, period.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, me neither. Hello? Who's this?

[Caller/Listener]

This is Mercedes hey, good morning, mama.

[Just Hilarious]

What's, what's your thoughts?

[Caller/Listener]

I feel like it's okay for your child to cuss, but just don't take it overboard. Like, I want him to be his own person. I didn't necessarily like, tell him certain words are bad and certain words are good, but if you say something and like emotion like oh or be like not the F word, but pretty much everything but the but then it's okay. So as long as he's not doing disrespectful.

[Just Hilarious]

So you don't mind if your kids curse? At what age? What age?

[Caller/Listener]

My son is eight. But like, okay, say he's playing the game. He has a VR set and them kids curse way worse than he ever.

[Jess Hilarious]

And then they also be playing with grown people too.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, but what happened with that 8 year old to school and the teacher does something and he goes, what the F you talking about?

[DJ Envy]

Exactly. See, you don't want your kid to practice bad habits, man.

[Caller/Listener]

So he know when to say it. But yeah, you're right.

[Jess Hilarious]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

You know, maybe when he get to high school he might. But yeah, now he good.

[DJ Envy]

You got your kid practicing bad habits. You know what I mean? Like, that's why I said, that's why I told Pastor Todd. It's not conviction, it's conditioning. Because when you are conditioned to not talk like that in front of adults, you're not going to talk like that in front of adults.

[Just Hilarious]

What you gonna do, Mercedes, when you.

[Caller/Listener]

When your son says, I want him to speak his mind, like not necessarily disrespectful, but if I'm gonna speak my mind line and he know you know what I'm saying not to say certain things to adults, but.

[Just Hilarious]

So I play the games and you go, m. Why you acting like a. Then what you gonna say?

[DJ Envy]

Telling you that's crazy. What you going do?

[Jess Hilarious]

You gonna jack his little ass up, ain't you?

[Caller/Listener]

Hell yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

But you just said it was all right to curse to get his feelings out.

[DJ Envy]

No, it's all right to curse. It ain't all right to curse me out.

[Just Hilarious]

She said get her feelings out. Say that was his feeling that day his mom took his allowance, he go, mom, why you got a.

[DJ Envy]

And he only got that from your. From your. His baby daddy. From your baby daddy.

[Caller/Listener]

Oh my God type.

[DJ Envy]

Cuz that's how daddy talk to you. She said she talk about type. He heard his daddy heard his daddy call you out your names and now he repeating what daddy say?

[Just Hilarious]

Damn, what's the ball of the story?

[DJ Envy]

I mean, the Moral of the story is, once again, I think that we conflating two different things. I. I don't curse in front of my parents. I don't curse in front of elders. I think that's a respect. But I do understand what Pastor Todd is saying. If you jump out the window and discipline your child crazy for cursing, they may not feel like they can come to you with bigger things. So I get it.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, yeah. I think it's totally two different things. But anyway, we got the latest with Lauren coming up. What we talking about Lauren? Now we gonna talk about my jersey.

[DJ Envy]

[Jess Hilarious]

She made some boots out of that.

[Jess Hilarious]

We gonna talk about.

[Lauren LaRosa]

We gotta take some time to show some love to young Bleed. He passed away after the verses.

[DJ Envy]

His song.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You know, just letting people know what is actually happening and you know, some of the things. We're gonna take some time to show some love to him.

[Just Hilarious]

All right, we'll get to that. Next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.

[Jess Hilarious]

Lauren becoming a straight thing.

[Just Hilarious]

She gets them from somebody that knows somebody.

[DJ Envy]

She gets the details.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I'm the homegirl that knows little bit about everything.

[DJ Envy]

She be having the latest on.

[Jess Hilarious]

The.

[DJ Envy]

Latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes she has facts. Sometimes you have details. Sometimes she have a little bit of everything. What was the latest on the Breakfast Club?

[Just Hilarious]

Talk to me.

[Lauren LaRosa]

So a no limit artist, Young bleed has passed away. This according to his son. Horrible man, very horrible. So a few weeks back after the verses, master P had posted a clip of Young Bleed performing and captioned it talking about, you know, know, just making sure you loving on your people and how amazing it is to be able to get together with people because you just never know what will happen. And then there were reports that a young lead had suffered a brain aneurysm. And it was up in the air whether he was alive or not. There wasn't really much details, but now his son is speaking out about what happened and and confirmed that he did pass away. Let's take a listen to Young Bleed's son Taji.

[DJ Envy]

Today we're going to be talking about my dad, Glenn Reed Clifton Jr. Also known to the world. That's Young bleed. As of November 1st, my dad gained his. His wings. My dad was 51 years old. So my dad didn't have no real health issues like most as you get in age, had high blood pressure. You know, he take his medicines and you know, do what he do. So not much after his huge celebration of the verses went to an after party and that's where everything kind of spiked. Once he collapsed, he did pass from the anus, the bleed to the brain. I do want to thank God for the strength to be able to sit here and have this conversation because I couldn't barely even talk a couple days ago. And throughout this week just kind of been in the bed thinking, you know, I still don't know how to take this. It's still so unreal, you know, Love that guy.

[Charlemagne the God]

Everything that's me is him.

[DJ Envy]

He taught me everything. He always pours so much life into me. I'm gonna make sure his legacy stays alive.

[Jess Hilarious]

Damn, 51 years old, that's not good at all.

[DJ Envy]

Rest in peace of Young Bleed. They don't know how that happened. Happens.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah. So he said in this video that he's actually going to do some more research on like brain aneurysms, but they're not for sure kind of what, like triggered it, like that type of thing. But he did also to mention that, you know, like there have been a lot of people that have been trying to report things and just have conversations about what was happening. But Young Bleed was actually fighting for his life for some time and the family wanted to give him the time to do that before they just, you know, know, you know, gave up on it because he was fighting for his own life and people were kind of jumping to conclusions. So he says he's telling us all he knows right now. And the only reason he says that he's addressing it is because Young Bleed's mother, who is his grandmother, and their family are going through so much and people keep reaching out to them, trying to figure out things and have questions, and it's just really difficult. So he's saying he wants to be the sole point of contact. He wants to clear up as much as he can. And. And he told us all that he could. But no, they don't know exactly what. What caused what.

[DJ Envy]

I tell you what, though, this is why celebrating people is so important. Giving people their flowers is so important. I'm happy that he got the opportunity to perform at Versus, you know, with the no Limit team and do how you do that Dick. I remember, you know, 1998 going to get my balls in my word, you know, cd, that's when anything that dropped from no Limit on Tuesday, you would go in the store and go get. And how you do that. There was a tough, tough tune.

[Just Hilarious]

It was.

[DJ Envy]

I definitely remember going to buy Young Bleed my balls and my work.

[Just Hilarious]

Rest in peace. But it's like you said, it's very scary back when, because he performed at Versus, he. Everything was great and then, you know, go to the club and then all of a sudden something happens that's not planned and nobody knew he wasn't sick, he was in good health, that, you know, this life is so short and so precious.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, yeah. He mentioned blood pressure at one point too, but I think they're still trying to figure out because he said, you know, my dad wasn't a person that like, had to go to doctors a lot, you know, and all the things. So they're still trying to figure that out. Now we do have the audio of Young Bleed at Versus.

[Jess Hilarious]

Wow.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, things happen fast, man. So fast. So, yeah, sending. Yeah, sending them some love. And he did mention that there is a website, a GoFundMe that they're using, and it's an official one that will now go toward, you know, all the arrangements and different things that they're going to make. And he wants people to make sure that unless it's something that he's putting out there, you don't support it because there's just a lot going on. So I wanted to mention that too. Yeah. Rest in peace to him.

[Just Hilarious]

Rest in peace.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Very, very, very sad. So switching gears a bit, real quick update, bringing it back to New York Diddy. Remember I told you guys that Diddy's team was asking the judge could they speed up the conversations that they're going to be having about him trying to get the appeal. So a judge said yes to, you know, that expedited process. And again, the prosecutors didn't press push up on it and say, hey, we don't want this to be sped up. We want to keep the original dates. And I think it's because they're confident in that he might not win the appeal. Yesterday there were more photos that dropped or of Diddy on the yard from the same day, but this time he's with Sebastian Telfar, the NBA player. And I reached out to Diddy's team and was trying to figure out, like I told y', all, like, how do y' all feel at this point? Because y' all were talking so much about high risk insecurity and his photos everywhere. And they told me at this point all they can do is focus on the appeal. But I found out from another source that those photos, we were trying to figure out where they were coming from. From what I'm told told those photos are coming from a person that like you can literally walk by the gate at this facility and if they're in the yard, you can take pictures. So I'm told that they, that there's belief that this comes from just a person that happened to be there and see things and be able to grab these different shots that they then sold to different outlets.

[Just Hilarious]

So yeah, just curious. How much would like a TMZ pay for a picture like that? I'm just curious what it would be worth.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You know what's crazy? People think that it's a ton of money. I've seen people get as low as $250 and as much as like 15,000, I think for something like this, the first set of photos, because it's the first time the world can see Diddy. I think they, they got a couple thousand for sure.

[DJ Envy]

What's a $15,000 photo? Lauren, are you. Your Harvey made you sign a NDA for life?

[Lauren LaRosa]

There are NDAs. And I worked on the story, so I wouldn't talk about it, but it was a video and it was a, it was a big story in relation to a artist.

[DJ Envy]

Who was it?

[Jess Hilarious]

Yo, yo.

[Just Hilarious]

The same way.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I don't want to tell people that that's. You know what that hat really say? You got us doing Photoshop.

[DJ Envy]

You think people can't read?

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, it's Photoshop. This is all AI you didn't you change what the hat really said. We know, though.

[DJ Envy]

I'll keep acting like you got one boyfriend then.

[Jess Hilarious]

Oh my.

[DJ Envy]

Keep your secret safe for me. Even though I got two videos. That ain't AI. This is way before people.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Y' all like to twist words.

[Jess Hilarious]

Hello.

[DJ Envy]

[Jess Hilarious]

[Lauren LaRosa]

Listen, so he was on a stream with ddg, right? They were on stream like all night doing music. And Christian popped up on the stream. It literally gave that they still or they got a little something going on. But I thought she had just had another boo. So a bit confused. I know yesterday too, he. He was like with his kids and took his kids out and K was there and the other baby mom was upset. So that whole saga is continuing that.

[Jess Hilarious]

Oh, he's talking about the light skinned girl. The one who was doing music before. Damn, I forgot her name. I ain't seeing the world. The one they kept saying, look like Stewie.

[DJ Envy]

Let's take a listen to Blueface. Because he's making music now, but he's saying that he had lost all motivation for music. Let's take a listen.

[DJ Envy]
