What we're talking about, Well, let's talk about this vaccine and when it's coming, and we'll talk about Maderner. They have applied for fday authorization for their COVID nineteen vaccine and we'll tell you what that means. All right, we'll get into that next keeping lock this to breakfast club. Good morning. Hey, that's the hardest line in that my business. Some of
y'all just need to mind your black ass business. But can you get risky, get so out in all right, Roddy rich All right, Well, let's get into front page news. I just want to let y'all know the Giants is still number one. Eagles lost last night to the Seahawks twenty three seventeen, and there was supposed to be a football game today but they postponed it again because of COVID. So the Ravens Steelers game will be Wednesday at three forty, which is weird in the afternoon, and the reason it's
in the afternoons. Of course, later on that evening, of course, you have the Rockefeller Christmas Tree like the hell one got to do another. The rock Fella Christma Tree lighting is in New York. It's a big thing. Everybody watches over all over the country. They don't want to ruin it. I grew up oble win it. They ain't never watching. Still don't care what else we got. Well, let's talk about this vaccine. So according to Operation Warp Speed, they've
given a timeline for the coronavirus vaccine shipment. They said there's about one hundred and twenty million people at risk in the United States. They said, by the end of the month of December, about forty million doses of vaccine. They'll have that, and then it's going to take a while for all Americans who need it on a priority level to get it. But they said over probably two or two and a half months stay all will get it.
And those are people over sixty five. Healthcare workers and frontline workers are the people first in line to get the vaccine. Both Fiser and Maderna have filed for an Emergency Youth Authorization for coronavirus vaccine from the FDA. Now what does that mean. Well, Maderna just applied for FDA authorization. They did their own tests and what they found out in their phase three clinical trial they gave thirty thousand people either the vaccine or a placebo, and the race
that they found out. Among the approximately fifteen thousand people who got the vaccine, eleven of them developed COVID nineteen. The fifteen thousand people who got the placebo, one hundred and eighty five of those people developed COVID nineteen. And so that was according to the phase three trials. Now they said, none of the eleven people who did get Yeah, you know, I'm not the highest grade of weed in
the dispensary. That ain't the thing that come out your wife whence you have a baby, Right, it's the placenta. All right, what hey man, it's early. Man, give me a moment. Okay, we're just getting started at the placebo means they don't they give you nothing like it's it's fake, so you don't know who got the fake one or who got the real vaccine, and then that way they can really monitor you, and you don't as a person,
you don't even know which one you got. None of the eleven got a headache, but they don't really have it. They just think they have a headache. But they did placebo, not a placenta. Okay, now, none of the eleven people who also got the vaccine became severely ill the eleven people that did get coronavirus. But thirty of the one hundred and eighty five people who got the placebo became
severely ill, and one of them died. So what they're saying is what even if so the placebo killed somebody, No, if you got the placebo, you can still get coronavirus. So of those people who did get the placebo, one hundred and eighty five of the fifteen thousand did get COVID nineteen, so they would have gotten it. They got COVID nineteen, they didn't know they had the placebo, and then one hundred and eighty five of those people died. I'm so confused. I mean that's a very ill, that's
a really ill and one of them died. Yeah, so why don't play with me. Don't say yea, we're gonna give you the vaccine. I think I got the vaccine, but you really gave me the placebo died. Well, when you agree to be part of a trial, you know that you'll either get the placebo or the vaccine. You just don't know which one. And they don't give you coronavirus. That means you just so, how are we not it while you were out and about? So? How we know one of them didn't die from the actual vaccine and
not the placenta because they got the placebo. They she just said that Parson got the placebo. But what if it was actually the vaccine and the vaccine is what killed them and it wasn't placebo. You don't know. No, they know who they get. Yeah, they know what they tell us. The dactors that did the trials, who got place they know what they told them. They know what they're telling you. They'm telling you, hey, here's the placebo, here's a vaccine, But I'm actually giving you place giving
you the vaccine or the vaccine killed them. Okay, here was the placebo. Oh my goodness. Hey, hey, but you're walking around thinking you're immune because you think you got the vaccine, and that's what crazy. No, but they're telling you. They're not they're telling them that you might get the vaccine of placebo. They're not telling you. Everybody's in the back. Yeah, they're not telling everything. They're not telling all the people, Hey,
you got the vaccine. You know when you take part in the trial that you're either getting up placebo or you're getting the vaccine is at fifty Hey, man, wear your mask and wash your hands. Social distance, all right, Let all these other people go first with the placebos and the place to the vaccine and everything else. All right, okay, well that is front page news. Get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one on five one.

One of the others. I went back to the store and I told him, and the guy was like, listen, I don't
know what you're talking about. Um, he had just brought him and I just told you about it. I was like, dude, there's no way in coincidence that he just brought him and then I go to buy it from him and then switched stuff. And we call that place bowl. It's a fifty fifty chance when you buy these things that it may go your way and it may not. That's that's the oldest trick in the book. Though. You're supposed to open that box right then and then.

I ain't worried about that, man, Yes, sir, sorry brother, sorry man, Marry Christmas though, damn it? Man? Hello, who's this cute? Lando? What's happening? You know? If your chest you know? Hey? Man, listen solo man, Yes, happening man? Why why are you becoming to be so industry? Man?
I don't know, y'all know. Kevin Hart was there. That's wrong for calling his daughter whole and that's what he's said. Why you wasn't dead wrong for telling the joke his daughter got whole like activity? Why is that wrong? Because he didn't because he didn't say a whole like activity until he said, in my head, my daughter hole. That's what he's said. Oh I didn't hear that part. I heard him say the whole like activity a part. But either way, it's a joe. It's a comedian, bro, it's
a joe. And you got daughters. You got daughters. I got a daughter, a son, and I and my daughter's twelve and my son is three. So when you're my daughter is twelve as well. So you're telling me that. And you grew up in Orlando, Florida, so I'm sure that you went to the classic back in the day. You've actually called a woman a hole back in the day. You're telling me that if you see certain behaviors and your daughter your your mind ain't gonna go to that.
I'm twenty eight, though, right, and so like, I really I want my son to get the same, to be treated the same as my daughter. Like he's not gonna be out here slinging and she ain't gonna be out here sewing. You know what I'm saying. Absolutely, yeah, you're doing that. Steen. Uh you had your daughter one fifteen sixteen, No, my um seventeen. Okay, But I do want to say we do also need to start teaching boys not to
call girls hose too. I got a calling to be to be respectful to women also, we do need to do that, everybody, You're right, but women got to stop calling girls house. I asked for my home girls yesterday. Hey, what do you call a woman who sleeps with a bunch of men? I don't call I don't call women holes at all, but I don't. You've never heard me on this video call a girl a home. You said holes, and now you know what that was. That was back in the day, back in the day though, when you
were slaying what would you consider a hole? Are you not a home? Absolutely? So I'm just I think I think we should keep the same energy. But also I want to take the time out, man, um, I want to take the time to say, uh, student, shout out to my black queen, my wife Mary. She's sitting right next to me and we are expecting, so I want to say salute. Okay, baby number three grass brother, Yes, yes, And I love what you guys are doing.

Man, it's trady. I think jokes and jokes, but what do you what do you? What were you saying? You when you say when you used to call women? So the whole point of that was to try to make everybody kept calling women hose all the time for no reason. And I said,
all right, call her home. She's winning, so what And that was the point of that. Okay, get it off your chests. Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If you need to vent, hit us up now.

Eight hundred five eight five one o five one. Now we got rooms on the way. Yes, And let's talk about a show that is coming to an and a series that a lot of us used to watch. Our friends are on that show, and it
has to do with Chrissy Teague and Freddie Gibbs. All right, we'll get into that next keeper locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the Gad. We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the room. We just play us on the left time we talked the songs. Play We played the song every hour. Okay, get it right, All right, let's get to the rooms. Let's talk Mike Tyson. She's filling the tea. This is the rumor report with Angela
Yee on the Breakfast Club. Oh well, after Mike Tyson and Roy Jones just fight. A fan tried to fight Mike Tyson outside the Staples Center. They said he was leaving and on the way out a group of fans
we're looking for autographs. When Mike Tyson walked over there to sign them, a man in the crowd yelled out why he wouldn't fight him, and Mike Tyson jokingly responded and said that it wouldn't end well for him, And then the guy swung on Mike Tyson and then tried to reach into his waistband like he was trying to pull out a weapon. That's when Mike Tyson's team jumped in and the guy took off. That's what happening in the Mike Tyson his whole life though, absolutely literally his
whole life. People who think trying him in different places because he's Mike Tyson. Yeah, they said. The same guy actually had tried to do something at a previous signing. He started some trouble there as well. What you want? What do you want? All right? Now? Jake Paul is in talks, according to him, with name McGregor's camp, and he feels like that's the fight he wants to do next. Listen to this the Jake Paul versus Conor McGregor. A fight is gonna happen and just a matter of when,
and uh, it's gonna be legendary. And I'm gonna win too. Like That's what I would really want people to understand, is I'm going to dedicate my life to winning, not fighting, because I'm not just going in there just to say I did it. I'm going in there to Connor McGregor. Up. Is it fair to say of his actual interest? Jake, Yeah, there is. It's business, baby, Jake Paul versus Connor McGregor and its quickly boxing match. I don't I don't knew.
I have to go back and watch how McGregor looked in the ring against Floyd maywhether I do remember McGregor getting very tired in that fight. But I mean, if Jake Paul has been training in the past three four years consistently just it's just boxing, I suppose I give Jake Paul a fighting chances randomly. I suppose to Jake Paul yesterday and no such thing as random exactly. It was really random. Somebody that I knew was he called me. Well, he FaceTime me first and I didn't answer, and it
was like pick up right fast. So I picked up and it was him and Paul and he wants to come on the UM Show this week actually too. Yeah, he's been up here before. I wonder. I think Jake Paul versus Common Gregg in a boxing match, I don't know, all right, And Snoop Dogg is co signing the idea of becoming a sportscaster. I think that could potentially happen
for him. I think people really enjoyed his commentary. Yes, and I saw Snoop Dogg posted what somebody said that he's a natural commentator, he's Barkley on steroids, he's hilarious. Three years with fifteen million dollars, who will make the call? I think it'd be great, So he should do it. Now, Little Wayne, why didn't he perform? Because you know, he's one of the owners of Triller, so it was one of owner as well. Yes, and but Little Wayne was
supposed to perform didn't make it to the event. Well, according to sources, they said that there was a third party event producer who interfered at the last minute and tried to insert themselves. There was a whole mess, a lot of confusion, and Little Wayne got frustrated and decided to just not do the performance. And then by the time Trailler found out, it was just too late. But he said he was happy that things went well. I respect it. I don't do nothing. I don't want to
do all. Right. Now, we didn't get a chance to discuss this, but in the next hour we'll talk about every Day Struggle. That show is coming to an end Complexes every Day Struggle. It's been over three years since the show has been on Complex and we'll tell you what went down. Okay, all right, we'll get into that next. And we got front page news what we're talking about, Yes, and we'll we'll talk about Joe Biden and who he's been appointing because now we're finding out more about what
his team looks like. All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to Breakfast club. Good morning, Hey morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Guie Charlomagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news. Hey, my giants is number one? You know why the cause? Last night the Eagles lost to the Seahawks twenty three seventeen. I felt so bad for Russell Wilson in the Seattle Seahawks. I'm like, why do they have to face an NFC
East team during COVID? Okay, it's a waste to sort of a gathering. There wasn't an easy window, but they did pointless gathering. Hey, they took the social distance from all NFC East teams. Challenge is still number one. Now what else we got you? Well, let's talk about what's been happening with some COVID relief talks. Now, they said that a bipartisan group of senators actually had some talks. They were informal to try to figure out what's going
to happen to provide more economic relief to Americans. And they have to figure this out. You know. They're saying that right now, the key programs that were enacted amid the pandemic are set to expire at the end of the year. That includes the Pandemic Emergency, unemployment compensation, of federal student loan freeze, and nationwide eviction moratorium. So both sides have to do some give and take. They have a Democratic House and the Senate. There's a need for
Democratic votes to pass any bill. So they need a true bipartisan bill. They said, not this is our bill, take it or leave it. So they do need a specific timeline on when this can happen. They want to actually have some legislation passed. They're saying after the January fifth, Georgia runoff election, but before Joe Biden is inaugurated January twentieth.
All right, now, Joe Biden and his transition team announced several nominees and appointments for the incoming administration's top economic post. You know, that's all gonna have to do with this too. They're gonna have to make sure that they figure out what to do with coronavirus. And yeah, there's some first in there too. They have the Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen. She's a former Federal Reserve Chair. She's Biden's official nominee
for Treasury Secretary. If that is confirmed, she'll be the first woman to serve as a department's leader in the two hundred and thirty one year history. Also, Nara Tanden is going to be serving as director of the Office of Management and Budget. If that's confirmed, she'll be the first woman of color to lead that department as well. Dope. Yeah, so you can see there's a lot of diversity in
people right now that Joe Biden is appointing. Now, today's also World Aid's Day, just so you guys know, December first, and right now they are calling for global lead and citizens to rally for global solidarity to maintain es central HIV services during COVID nineteen and beyond and to make sure that there is continued provisions of HIV services for children, ado lessons and populations most at risk for the disease.
They want to call on countries to provide health workers with greater protection and support so that they continue to work safely during this pandemic. And they did find out from research. They've been investigating whether people with HIV have an increased risk of poor outcomes with COVID nineteen and according to preliminary evidence, there is a moderate increased vulnerability. So it's even more urgent right now that people with HIV have access. All right, that's your update. Okay, thank you,
miss Ye. Now when we come back, let's open up the phone lines eight undred five eight five, one oh five one. Now, let's talk about this restaurant in Dallas. What happened with this restaurant in Dallas. I've seen it all over the social media blogs. Well, it's called True Kitchen and Cocktails, and Kevin Kelly is the owner and people were upset with him. This video went viral. There were women who were dancing, and one woman in particular was dancing on his seat and she was leaning on
the glass. She was twerking this song through that ass in the Circle was playing, and you know, he cursed everybody out. Some would say throw that ass in the circle as a Negro spiritual and when that song comes on, the spirit moves you and you can't control yourself. Some would say that, some would say that, who would say that? Me? Well, I think we do. Do we have the audio of the owner of the restaurant. Yes, I invested a lot of funny in the buying this building, into developing this
concept so black people can have somewhere knights to go to. Okay, somewhere we can feel good about ourselves and say stop, somewhere where people can feel good about ourselves as a cultural Okay, it's all that's tworking, taking the prime, taking the peak. Don't bring it here because we're a restaurant. And so beyond that, seventy five percent of our customers, the ladies and I'm on be in the show respect for themselves. But how they carry themselves here? So how
can I tell them being to respect himself? And you guys talking last year, do you want to do it? Got a restaurant? Well, well, he went up to collective
reaction of the audience, he said that for work. But he went up to the table a couple of times and asked him not to work and not to dance on the chairs, and they continued to do it, and he got upset and said, you know what I asked you nicely pretty much to not get there froout the restaurant, right, So yeah, I mean that's and I think what happened was when this first happened, people didn't know the backstory. They didn't know that he had addressed them several times.
They also didn't understand why he cursed and made a speech to the whole restaurant instead of just the people that were tworking and make them leave. I think he kicked them out. But if it's his restaurant, if he wanted to get his MLK junior on and give a I have a brunch speech, that's his right, right. I also think he felt like he was talking to family because he's black, and you seemed like it was majority of black people in there. He thought that they could
have some you know, real candid conversation. That's what I took from it, right. But there's, like he said, there's certain places where you're dancing you have a good time, and there's certain places where you eat. Never like, I go to restaurants and I never see nobody standing on tables or standing on chairs turking. But then when I go to lounges and I go to clubs, yes, I see that, and I think his whole thing was Look, I asked you a couple of times, this is not
that type of place. Please, don't stand on the chairs, don't stand on the table, don't stand on the couch, don't put your he said, don't put your hands on the glass, because you can fall and hurt yourself. I don't want to lossuit. I asked you nicely a couple of times. Now I can't be nice anymore from my restaurant. I wouldn't have cursed that the remaining customers in the restaurant, you know, because they weren't the ones that were causing
the disruption. That's that's about it. But other than that, I don't I don't see what he did. What did wrong here? What did I miss? People were upset about this, yeah, very yeah, well yeah, and I said, like I said, I don't think people have the fullback story. They just saw the video of him cursing them out. They didn't know what had happened prior to that until it all came out after that's what happened. Yeah, I don't think he should have said get the f out of the restaurant.
But if you've asked someone to stop doing something a couple of times, and they do it again intentionally just as an fu. That's an FU to me. Yeah, and then then you gotta go. You jump on my furniture and push on the glass working in my establishment after I ask you not to you and you just don't respect me and my venue. And I ever hate that though. I hate when people say, well, he shouldn't have used the F word. So it's like, but I, when I ask you to leave a couple of times and you
continue to do it, you're saying F me. So I can't say, hey, well, I think those people were gone, talk about he shouldn't have said that to the remaining customers in the building. I don't know that. I wasn't there. I don't know if the people were still there, and
I don't know. All right, Right, well, we'll get more into it because we'll talk more about his response, and he did a response on Instagram as well as an interview with TMZ, So we'll tell you what that is, all right, We'll get into that next eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Let's talk about it to Breakfast Club, Go MORNINGE call in right now, call
me at your opinion to the breakfast Club. Top break it down eight hundred five eight five one oh five one the breakfast Club, think out the phone call eight hundred five eight five one oh five. Want to join it to the discussion with the breakfast club, talk about it wanting everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Now if you're just joining us, we opened up the phone lines. We're talking about a restaurant in Dallas. The name of the restaurant's name, the
restaurant et true True Kitchen and cocktails. True Kitchen and Cocktails. Now the owner got it. Some people, uh that was working at this restaurant. I invested a lot of funny in the buying this building, into developing this concept. So black people can have somewhere knights to go to, Okay, where we can feel good about ourselves and say good talk to you please, Somewhere where people can feel good
about ourselves as a cultural okay. And so all that's working, taking the crime, taking the peak, don't bring it here because we're a restaurant. And so we got that seventy five percent of our customer and the ladies, and I'm gonna be in the show respect for themselves. How they carry themselves here, so I can I tell them being to respect himselves and you guys want to do it restaurant. I don't like how we're reducing this to just twerking.
I don't like that narrative. That's not what happened in this situation. It wasn't the twerking. It was disrespect. If you come to a table and you ask, you know, some folks not to do something, and you know, they continue to do it and then intentionally jump up on the table at the restaurant, put their hands on the glass and twork to say f you for telling them, you know, not to twork a couple of times. That's
just disrespect. You don't have nothing to do with the fact that throw that ass in the circle was playing and the Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost got into this young lady and she just had to throw her ass in the circle. That's not what happened here, right, And
I agree with you. I mean he went to the table a couple of times and asked him please, and they disrespected him and said, not only am I still gonna do it, I'm gonna get on the couch and put my hands on the glass and continue, Yeah, you gotta get out, you gotta get out, because all I'm thinking about at that time it is not only the disrespect, but if you fall into that glass, if something happens to you, I'm losing my He said that, he said
that facebook posts. I saw that in his Facebook posts, he said, because he's an attorney too, Yes, he said, Well, he also said why I would like to apoloizeze the patrons who I offended by my poor choice of wording. I think this full story and a bit of video it might help your understanding of the final stong with guests address and asked to leave. So at first people didn't see that he had went over to the table
multiple times and asked these guests to stop. And then the video we saw was just him pretty much cursing out people in the restaurant. Yeah, I don't think he should have said get the f out of the restaurant to to the to the remaining patriots in the restaurant. But if you've asked someone to stop doing something a couple of times and they do it again intentionally just as an f you, then then you got to go. You jump on the frontiture and push on my glass
working in my establishment. After I asked you not to. You just don't respect me? How many? How many times I gotta ask you nicely, like like you know how? And I asked you a couple of times like hey, can you not do it? You get that out? He's black, right, correct, He's a black restaurant. I guarantee he's in a white area in Dallas. And those white folks probably be giving them hell. Seeing all those black folks in that establishment all the time. They probably always reporting them, trying to
get them jammed up, you know. And one thing about being black when you own establishment like that, it's very difficult to get licenses, yep, but easy for them to take them away. Absolutely, so he's probably overly cautious. Let's go to Hello, who's this alli? This is Katrina from Florida. Hey Katrina, Hi you guys. M my thoult Is. I
don't think he said anything wrong at all. I think a lot of the time, as black people we complaining of, you know, our establishment and businesses not having great customer service, or we always find a way to put each other down. And finally, you know, from the way looking a video. How many people was there. He has a well established restaurant, and the only thing he's asking is for you to
respect the restaurant as you will somewhere else. You know, there's there's no place restaurant, any business really to stand on furniture and act like that, especially when he told you guys multiple time not to do it. I tell people all the time, if your mama told you don't play on the furniture at home, that mean you don't know. I can play on the furniture nowhere else, you know. So I didn't think they should have had a little bit more respect, you know, for his business, and like
he said, especially been a black owned business. We have something good going, don't mess it up, you know, make ourselves look bad. We're here to uplift each other. So just respect, you know, his things, and you know that's all you have to do. You know what you gotta do. You gotta put plastic on this furniture in the restaurant. All black people know, not get on the furniture with the plastic. Can't do that. Don't even sit on it, and the fool look good. I can't wait I get
back to Dallas. I'm going to try that resture that fool look amazing. Hello, who's this? Hey lording and it's que man. Hey cue much man? This brother, I'm a business owner and this brother was wrong. I could have I could have completely understand that the ladies were disrespectful, But at the same time, you have to me shame your composure. I've been in that situation plenty of times, and it could actually turn ugly. God forbid. They had dudes come to pick them up and one of them
comes inside and wants to fight the owner down. Um, they could turn really ugly. So he shouldn't have done that. I think if there were dudes, wouldn't have spoke to them like that. What would you expect him to do? Though? Women, what would you look like? They wouldn't go to a white restaurant and act like that. I don't think you would have spoke to white women, or Hispanic women, or or Asian women like that. I think anybody disrespecting this restaurant,
what would you do? What would you do in that in situation? Um, I would tell them I would turn off the music. I'll say, DJ, you know what, cut that, throw that whatever in the circle off and then i'd like listen, that's the music off. Because people don't want to respect the rule. Ask you to leave, you don't want to leave. Now I have to get the authorities involved because what happened. We don't want to call the
cops on these women. Yeah, I wouldn't want to call the cops, and he did, I will say afterward, he did apologize for his poor choice of wording, So he did say that, Yeah, the white man would have definitely called the cops on them asap. First time out the gate, you called the cops to escort because the situation. Now, when you don't keep your composure in situations like that, it becomes what you said and not actually what the
people did. So in the Bronx, it was a similar situation brons a little different, you know, and the girls did something and the business owner handled it wrong. He disrespected her even though she was wrong. She went to call her boyfriend. He shot her and he died. The dude, the dude, I mean the dude her boyfriend came in and shot to do that. He died. Listen, you know what's so crazy if you just spoke to her with respect. It was a time leaving working in a restaurant, were wrong.
But you still, as the black men, the way we interact with our women, we have to treat them. But he did. But he went to the table three times politely. What I see with his prayers. Now you called Securado, the police asked him to leave. Now, I'm gonna be honest with you, as the black man, I would not call the police, only because we've seen what happened in situations like wiffle house and stuff like that. It would be very hard for me to call the police in
the situation like that. I'm not gonna probably have my security at the restaurant do it, but not the police. But also we don't know when he was standing in the restaurant yelling at people, if those people were still there. I don't know if those people were still there. Right, But not only that, you call the police. Now you have an infraction on your business. Does that go against your business and that police came to your business? You
might not want that. I know a lot of times when your own businesses, you don't want the police to put any infractions on your business. That they had to come for any reason. Because when you got to go against the community board up for the community board. It shows, Oh, we would call to this restaurant twenty times. We would call to this restaurant five times. And like you said,
he's a brother in a white neighborhood. He's just trying to keep his business alive without having to problem because I'm sure they're trying to push push the above out. But let's talk about it some more. Eight hundred five eighty five one oh five one. What are your thoughts? It's the breakfast club the morning. Call me and your opinions to the breakfast club topic on five morning. Everybody is cej Envy angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy We all the breakfast club. Now, if you just joined us, we're
taking your calls. Eight five one oh five one. We're talking about this restaurant in Dallas. What happened in Dallagy Yes, the owner of Dallas's True Kitchen and Cocktails. He actually had to have some women leave because he went over to the table several times asking the staff to working. One woman was standing on a seat with her hands
against the glass windows. He said, my immediate reaction was this woman could fall through this window and we could be the target of a lawsuit if she is injured. My second reaction was enough is enough? After already addressing this behavior twice, these customers no longer deserved the courtesy of kindness I expressed in the earlier encounters, as it was met with disrespect and intentionally ignored. That's why they
were told to leave. So I ask you a question, because I didn't see this on social media, what exactly are people upset about that he talked to him and told him that they couldn't dance in the restaurant in the way that they spoke to him. Well, now, I think that they didn't see the videos because he posted the videos and he posted his lines that he had went over there a couple of times before, with the video that people saw of him cursing them out, and you know, he did tell them. I think we had
the audio right of him cursing them out. Yeah, let's let's play the audio. I invested a lot of money in the buying this building, into developing this concept so black people can have somewhere knights to go to, Okay, somewhere we can feel good about ourselves and say the book stop, somewhere where our people can feel good about ourselves as a cultural, okay, And so all that's talking taking the crime, taking the pink, don't bring it here
because we're a restaurant. And so beyond that, seventy five percent of our customers, the ladies, and I'm gonna be in the show respect for themselves for how they carry themselves here. So how can I tell them being to respect themselves? And you guys are talking about last year? Do you want to do it? I got my restaurant. I did it more our people, and I didn't more our culture. Now see, I guess that's the thing for me.
I don't know if those people were already removed from the restaurant, if he was talking to the remaining customers in there, I wouldn't have said get the f out. Maybe the remaining customers staughter was foul and he was explaining what he did and that he told them that I talked numerous times to get up the restaurant. There's a restaurant in Atlanta called b Qwe shout the BQ. I love that restaurant. I put my feet on the table right and uh, why would you do that? My
feet on? My feet on the couch? You got you sit on the couch like, you sit on the couch, on the couch, and Mama came up, come and came over there and said, take my damn feet off the couch. Right. You know what I did. I took my damn couch. I didn't take it personal. I was like, she right, my feet shouldn't be on this couch. And I gotta
respect people's establishment. You gotta respect people's venue. Respect people like like if if that guy came to you and told you twice, look, don't do that, please, YadA, YadA YadA, and then you still did it as an f you intentionally, what do you expect to happen from that point? What do you expect? Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this eight O three? What's happening in metro? Man? Whatever? What are your thoughts? Bro? Man? My thing is just
like this. I understand what you say. That's cool. That is his run. He got his own opinion on that for my things too. Where I see whatever music that you're playing, that's gonna sit that thing. That's like if you go to a cloud and you're going in, they saying, you know, buck, give you up. Whatever I'm saying, you're gonna have a fight. First of all, your black hard's taking away because you said buck before knuck goddamn stuff. Well, I look, I'm tought a seven years old ran with
all that. Man, I'm old school for two. You know that's our error. And you're from South Carolina. That's right, that's our error. Nun, that is our area. Okay, look then, fun, that's too late. Now you ain't knowing. That's right. We might have to hang up with you like you're right. If man, you're gonna hang up on me, I'm from the door three. No, man, go ahead, express yourself. Man, were just nucking. Now you go. Now you we start bucking.
That's right, that's right, It's all good. I'm sucking now. It's the music that you sit in the scene with. Man, I don't agree with that. You had swag surfing. You just start swag surfing and you had dood to brown. You just jumped out the car and start shaking bro. Yes, but that has nothing to do with anything. What I'm saying is it has nothing to do with the music. She was being blatantly intentionally disrespectful because he told her to stop doing that twice off. Yeah, I mean, listen,
you can dance in your seat. You can have a good time. You don't have to stand on the furniture. Yeah, and she only did it because he had told her not to do it twice. That's right, that is true. It was intentionally disrespectful. Yeah. Now if you got those now you know what they call him, the N words. You know you're gonna have some of those every where you go. So that is goodbye, bro, goodbye, man go buck if you know, man down goodness gracious it is
though he I mean, listen all jokes aside. I mean, these awesome neat girls parituals, I can't help it. And certain songs come on, I'm gonna let this ask go. What a lot of them? If you buckets one of them, I can't. Where are you at? Nuck? If you buck, We're gonna start nucking and bucking. You know what I mean? What's song made you? Made you? You shake your ass? I want to rock, my uncle Luke, Oh, I do want to rock. I want to rock. You can't keep
still when that comes. So anyway, putting Drom about to play that record? He Drom, you can keep drum, you can. I'm gonna come right there there and grind right behind drum the ground. How did we get here? You know how we got here? What story of the story is just simply respect people? Like why can't you just respect people like he was being respectful? Why couldn't that other party just show that respect back? It's simple, and disrespect
usually will be met with disrespect, that's all. So you felt like you got disrespected, it's probably because you put that energy of disrespecting somebody else out there. Listen. I agree with him that he should have asked those women to leave the restaurant if they weren't respecting his business.
I don't agree with his how he addressed the whole restaurant, and he did apologize for that, and I do think his wording was wrong, and certain things that he said about women respecting themselves, like you can't work but respect yourself. I don't think that's true, and so I think what he had to say was wrong. But I do think when you own a business, you don't want people standing on the furniture, pushing on the glass, and you asked them politely twice and they continue to do it, they
gotta go. You know what it reminded me of too. You remember that desk it on reasonable doubt after twenty two two goes off, Oh can I kick your goals off? And Maria Davis is like such and such a such, like who wasn't here smoking? Shut up? And You're like, that's why we can't have nice things and we need to do better. Yeah, that's what it felt like. Honestly, somebody need put that on the album, is what I'm saying. All right, all right, well we got roomors on the way. Yes,
let's talk about Travis Scott. Now, Forbes did this huge article on him about the money that he makes from McDonald's PlayStation and Nike deals. Will tell you what that looks like. All right, we'll get into that. Next. It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning c j Enzy Angela, Yee, Charlomagne the God. We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rule as. Let's talk every Day Struggle. Oh go Breakfast Club. All right, Well, unfortunate news for Everyday Struggle.
That show is coming to an end. Wayno, Nadeska Academics. The final show is now slated for December seventeenth. Why did they say why? Well, okay, so Academics had his explanation of the demise of the show, and so according to academics, he feels like it had something to do with Chrissy Teagan and Freddie Gibbs. Here's what he had to say. Yes, it was a very weird moment with the Chrissy Teagan thing, but it wasn't only that. I received calls from them about other content that they felt
I probably or shouldn't be engaged in. And I specifically told him, I said, listen, while you may look at me as I'm the guy on your show, I have a whole different brand to run. Remember I got suspended, but I remember saying to them, if you guys are gonna police what I do off of your platform, not realizing that I have to defend my own platform that I'm building. I never came here to be an employee. Brother of all dropping a clue box for academics microphone.
I don't know if he's doing that from the house, but that audio is fantastic. But yeah, I mean saluting my guy, way know, an academic saluting the desk. I don't see any of them being synonymous with every day struggle. I mean, I didn't know of the deska until the platform, but way know, an act have been making them mark way before that show existed, So I'm sure all three of them will be a okay And sadly, that's just the lifespan for a lot of hip hop shows, three
or four years. That's why when folks look back and see what the Breakfast Club has been doing for almost ten years, next week could be ten years. Actually, y'all, y'all appreciate the evolution because I personally feel like we show how far you can take it, and we showcase to many dimensions of hip hop. Well. He also talks about Freddie Gibbs and how he feels like that situation where him and Freddy Gibbs had it back and forth
also played a role. I felt it was a spit in the face when complex while trying to tell me that I should shut them up, you said something about Chrisyatigue and that's not okay. They awarded I mean literally a couple days after, they awarded Freddy Gibbs with Like Lyricists or like some like award. Even though he was saying that he couldn't wait till I die, that he could spit on my casket. It told me a lot.
Welcome to my world. Okay, you know, many artists have threatened to kill me and they still get radio play and still get invited the concerts. And then I got to come to the concerts and introduced him. It happens. Okay, it's part of the game. I do complex got rid of him because of that. All right, Well, Freddy Gibbs of course responded and he said, and you a lie, bitch. I didn't say that I was gonna squeeze your breast. And then he played the audio proving what what what? What? What? What?
What did you just say that you there? Freddy Gibbs responded to academics, and he said, you would lie. I didn't say, yea, I was gonna squeeze. I didn't say that. I said I was gonna squeeze your breast. Oh okay, And here is that freestyle where he said that castled that bitch got that bitch five? You know that that? And oh with me, when I catch academic, I'm gonna
squeeze the Freddy is silly. I wouldn't just say nothing about Freddy gut because you already know he's gonna get on his Instagram story and have something funny to say that I can't. I can't no joke with his word player either. Now, okay, that's a good back and forth, all right. Now let us discuss ice Cube. Where has he been? Or ice Cue posted himself where the hell has ice Cube been? And here's what he posted. Yeah, I've been working behind the scenes a few major companies
who want to do stuff. We all modifying the contract. It's taking a minute because you know, we want to make sure we're you know, specific hitting all the areas that who may have missed, all the people who did what I was doing. I'm gonna just watch and see what you get out the whole deal here talking about I was worried about getting some taxes or something. Anybody that would go through all this for some taxes is an idiot, all right. So he's still working on it, guys.
I have faith in ice Cube, unlike a lot of other people. You know, I don't know why people would ever think that ice Cube would be on the side of anything except for the side of blackness. So yeah, but I never think ice Cube has bad intentions and
anything that he's doing. You may not like the way he does things, but he definitely his intentions a pure all right, now Walmart has revealed that Patty LaBelle so fifteen hundred sweet potato pies per hour during Thanksgiving per hour, I believe drop on a clue's boss for Queen Patty LaBelle. Then that is amazing. Thirty six thousand of her sweet potato pies every day. That's how much she sells. So that's they said, fifteen hundred per hour. How many hiding
to call the house for number one? You can call the house person. I do check on this LaBelle. I got the house number. She got a house for still, I got the house numb. But I don't know. I don't know, all right, And let's talk about Travis Scott for a second. They did a Forbes article on him about how much money he's making from McDonald's, PlayStation, Nike, Dales and all of that. And you know, he has
a lot of different things going on. He has brands that he works with like General Mills, PlayStation, Epic games, McDonald's, and for Epic he did that performance Aren't Live concert within Fortnite that got twelve million viewers. For McDonald's, who did Travis Scott branded menu, They said it was so popular that McDonald's had supply shortages and that never happens. They said that Travis is a cultural icon. They said, the largest story here is that brands historically have told
celebrities how to say their message. I think it's very clear that Travis Scott and his team have gotten through to these brands that they have a very clear esthetic, messaging and strategy. They said, if he can make McDonald's cool the thing of pop culture right now, that's the ultimate sign that he's made it. And he made a lot of money off of doing that merch too for McDonald's.
So what they're saying is that he's making more than one hundred million dollars this year from PlayStation fortnite, McDonald's and Nike. God bless I love it, So, you know, shout out to him, because they said with the McDonald's merch, he bought in about fifteen million dollars from sales from that, he made five million dollars from the endorsement aspect of the Dale Nike They said, probably earns him about ten
million a year or so. But the added value that the partnership brings him as a go to person for brands looking to level up is unquantifiable. Travis out here like he bounced into basketball. He got all him damn endorsement deals. Drop on a clue, Bob Scott, But don't think about travel to see He stays in his lane. He does what he wants to do. He don't do interviews unless he wants to, like Travis does him and I love it. Minding his business. Mind is damn mine
is black owned business. All right, Well that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you, miss ye chall speaking of mind your business. Four after the hour, Chicago, Chicago. Y'all out here acting like Florida. You know what I mean. But this is a classic case of trauma. But we'll discuss it, all right, we'll get into that next keeping lock just to breakfast club. For morning, it's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Dunky of the day a little bit of a mixed so
like an other day. Now I've been called a lot of my twenty three years. But Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Yeah, it's Donkey today for Tuesday, December, first goes to a Chicago man named James Dixon. James is twenty nine years old and he is facing first degree murder charges because he's stabbed a brother named Vincell Jackson, who was fifty two years old. Rest in piece to Vincell Jackson, Now, I know, I know, I know. In the words of my guy Jansus nice, you gotta hear
both sides. Some people can sit back and say some stabbings could be justified depending on what happened. Let me assure you this isn't one of those times. Okay, let me paint the story for you. According to the Chicago Tribune, James allegedly had drank several alcoholic beverages prior to the stabbing, so he was drunk, and he allegedly punched Vincell Jackson in the face, and then the fight moved to the front porch. You know, nice little holiday fight. You know
what I'm saying, keep your blood flowing. But when they got to the front porch, Vincell was stabbed nine times, leaving him with wounds to his head and face. Now what did James Dixon punch Vincell in the face for. Let's go to the Chicago Tribune for the report. Police I Thanksgiving Guests is accused of killing a Chicago man in a fight over putting hands in the leftover food. Stop stop right there, Stop stop stop that's very Florida. Okay, all right, stop for a second before we hear or
anything else. James Dixon, a Walmart worker with three prior felony convictions, including arson, stabbed a man because he put his hands in the leftover was not James James. Prior to being escorted out of court on Sunday, James asked to judge how much time he faces if convicted. The judge said, oh, for first degree murder carries twenty to
sixty years, twenty to sixty years. Because you didn't like the fact as someone put their hands and the damn leftover Thanksgiving food played a whole clips from the Chicago Tribute. A Thanksgiving guest is accused of killing a Chicago man in a fight over putting hands in the leftover food. James Dixon, thirty nine, was charged with murder after a fight early Friday morning that began inside a home and
spilled outside to the porch. Dixon was spotted digging into the leftover food with his bare hands, and the hosts boyfriend, fifty two year old VINCEL. Jackson, tried to escort him out of the home. Prosecutors said Dixon sucker punch Jackson and stab him nine times on the porch. Dixon ran away from the house. Jackson later died at a hospital. Dixon told investigators he fought with Jackson, but said he was stabbed first. Dixon was treated for a small cut on his neck and cuts on his fingers at a
hospital before he was arrested. Now, see, when one knucks, you must buck. But there was no knucking going on him. Okay, don't tell me you got upset. This man put his bad hands in the leftovers because of COVID, because you
swung on him. There's no such thing as socially distanced fighting. Okay, my brother, James Dixon, I don't know what type of trauma that you're dealing with that has you in such pain, that has you so hurt, that would cause you to throw your whole life away and take a whole life because he put his bad hands in the leftovers. My god, I wish someone, someone would have intervened early on in this man, James Dixon's life. Okay, this is why I
be on Folks ask about going to therapy. That's why I be on folks ask about getting some healing, because this ain't got nothing to do with no damn Thanksgiving leftovers. James was already hurting. He was mad about something else, and unfortunately he took it out on Vin Sail. This is why I'd be staying out of people's way. Okay, hurt people, hurt people, and it's a lot of hurt folks walking around and is a common reaction to trauma. You be angry at the person, the situation responsible for
the trauma. You'd be angry at yourself because you be blaming yourself for what happened that caused you the trauma, and that makes you more irritable than usual, and you have a hard time understanding why you keep snapping in folks. It's because you traumatize full and you need to go deal with that hurt and stop taking it out on other people. And that's what happened to Vincell. He was the victim of the trauma that James Dixon has inside
of him that he hasn't dealt with. So I have empathy for both parties here, Okay, James and Vincell, But God damn James leftovers, My g you're facing twenty to sixty years because someone put their bare hand in the leftovers. That's not worth going to prison for. No twenty sixty years and have a man put his bad hands in your boogie. Please let Remy Mark give James Dixon the biggest he hall he ha ha, You stupid mother, are you? The only thing can make this story worse is if
the leftovers were today day old. Okay, if you still eating Thanksgiving leftovers right now, you kind of deserved to get swung on. I'm just saying, don't judge anybody. I just threw mine out yesterday. Last night, I threw mine out, justed it. But we have been stopped eating them though, but I threw I did throw mine out, justed it, and I felt bad. But I'm like, why would I give this to somebody and I wouldn't even eat it,
you know what I mean? So let the raccoons have it in the bears and the DearS and whatever else the possums. Yeah, all right, well, thank you for that donkey today. Now when we come back, m grand Master Maurice Astley will be joining us. Explain who that is now he's up, Jamaican American Chess Grandmaster from Brooklyn. He gets busy in chest. It's not too many grand masters, it's not too many black grand masters. So he is a black grand master. He's gonna talk about how he
got into the chest. So he's the man in chess. He's like the lebron James of Chester. Patrick mahomes a chess absolutely. I mean, I've been watching this thing on Netflix called Queen's Gambit that's all about chess, watching that too. I've been loving it so Um the fact that shout out to him, Yeah, shout out to him, because you know, I've heard about him for so long because I used to work for woods Hang and they're so big into chess, and he's like a major hero for them. So I'm excited.
You know how to play chess. I do know how to play chess. I learned because of them, you know, I know what how to play chess. No, I lie like I do though, like in life, I'll say things like this is chess, not checkers. Don't even know what the hell that means. I do know how to play chess. Takes a lot, a lot of patients, and sometimes you
you overthink. You overthink so much about what moved because if you like, if I move here and then he moves there, and then I move this, But then what if he moves this and then I have to move here? Is a lot is thinking thinking ten steps ahead? Why do we disrespect how to play chess? Why do we disrespect checkers like that, as if checkers isn't a intricate game as well? I think the thing about that that's different is that all the pieces move differently. Yeah, different
play Yeah, different pieces different ways. One might move to the left, one differently. I don't know how to play chess, but I listened to wool Tang and I love the movie Fresh. It's one of my favorite movies, So therefore I love chess. That's all you got him? All right? Well, Maurice Astley, Grandmaster Maurice Ashley. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody's DJ Envy and ngul Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we all
the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Grandmaster Maurice Astley. Charlomagne. I love the fact that you know you're you're a grandmaster, because that's just something people don't see, you know what I mean? Black people. A lot of times we go towards athletics entertainment, but I feel like you would inspire so many just because you've made money doing what you love to do. When you're playing chess, It's exactly right.
It's a big issue for me as well. You know, I went to Rikers Island once to teach young people at Rikers. I'm talking about seventeen eighteen, nineteen year olds and I came in the first day and the teacher introduced me as a grandmaster and a young brother in the back looked at him and said, there's no way he's a grand master. I thought he was going to
be Asian or something. Oh wow wow. Yeah. And you know, that really hurts me because it spoke to the fact that when we see us as athletic, as athletes and rappers and the like, it's easy and that's our perception even of ourselves. And to see a fellow black man walk in the room and be a chess grandmaster, not only did it shock him if he insisted that it
wasn't true. And so we've got to fix that. We're diverse, we have talents in multiple areas, and we need to promote our intellectuals that are doing big things in many different fields. What does it take to be a grand master? Like? What does it take to get that on your name? Like? What does it take? What's the process? The International Chess Federation has a very rigorous process based on who you play against. They have to be rated players, they have
to be internationally ranked as well. There has to be grand masters in the group of players who competed against, and they store their ranking. There's a formula that says you have to perform at this level. How many women grand masters are there currently? The thirty seven women grandmasters in the world. Women are vastly underrepresented in the sport. It's something that we're trying to address. I don't know if you saw the movie, the Netflix series of Queen's
Gambit that's just tearing up the airways right now. It's actually the most popular Netflix series in the world, and I think it's mainly because of, Okay, the storyline, it was really well done, but also seeing a woman do her thing in that rarefied air has got a lot of people excited. Do you actually drink Henessey Murray's I do I do? From time to time? I don't you know they gave me like you don't even want to know. I got like the liquor store in my apartment right now.
But you know, I chill. I chill a little bit. I love a little cocktail once twice. How did you feel when they reached out to you for the Black Excellence campaign. I was stunned, to be honest, it was absolutely incredible. It was an honor. I knew about the campaign that Never Stopped, Never Settled while Rabbit campaign based on the story they did with Major Taylor Marshall Taylor the cyclist from the nineteen hundreds, and I only knew
about it because I saw Hennessy Ads. I only knew about him because I saw Hennessy Ads while I was watching the NBA games. And when I found out they were gonna do me and that possibly my commercial is gonna run during an NBA playoffs while I'm watching Lebron getting done. And then on top of that, just thinking about the memories the people who raised me, my mom, who sacrifice all she sacrificed so that her kids could
come to the United States. I'm from Jamaica originally, and you know she was apart from us for ten years and my grandmother in her older days, raising us while my mom was away. My dad as well, turning his life around so he could be a part of our lives. And you know, it's just amazing to later have this opportunity to represent where I'm from and the people who really got me to where I am today. Who introduced
you to chess? I first learned from my brother. My brother played with his but it was like any game. It was like check, it was Mike Monopoly. I didn't get serious until I got to high school, and that's when I fell in love with it and just played all day. I was one of the nerds in high school, you know, one of the kids. You know, Angela. She wouldn't even looked at me back in the day. She would have been like, oh, come on, man, he's like lords now a little there you go. You know, they
usually come around later. They usually come around to the nerds later. Yeah, boyfriend gets killed and sent to jail. I'll be real, Maurice. I knew. I knew when radio was my passion, right, When did you know chess was your passion? High school? I was lit up in high school, man, that was it. I just wanted to do it every day. My grade started slipping. My mother was talking to me, like, what are you gonna do with chess? Where's the money in chess? But I just really wanted to do it.
I didn't even plan it. I just wanted to do it every single day. I didn't know what the money was gonna be. Like, I wanted to become a grandmaster. That's all I knew. Do You got to imagine a young brother in Brownsville, Brooklyn, in chess books in his apartment. You know, gunshots is going outside, and all I'm doing is studying chess every day. I mean imagine that. I was just so passionate about it. I just wanted It's
all I wanted to do. And I can't believe, you know, years later, becoming a grand master, getting inducted into the US Chess Hall of Fame. It's like a miracle. It's crazy. I have so much respect for the game too. When I used to be on tour with woutang Ah, they used to do backstage. People would think it would be wild, but they'll be back there playing chess for hours before they perform, and that's how they would like Rizen and Jizza at least that's how they would get ready. It's amazing, man,
It's an amazing game. Makes you mentally tough, to get you focused. It's just the type of game that transforms a lot of your thinking patterns. It helps you to manage life better, manage business better. It's just fantastic. And I'm not surprised. Man, those guys just in they're the real deal. When when did you make your first dollar? When did you be like, when did you say to yourself, well, I can make money off this. And at what point did you go to mom and say, Mom, look, you
know it's funny. Came to me. It was an old Jewish lady. Your name was Betty Dikeman. She's passed on, but she came up to me and said that they had a chess program in the with the America's Chess Foundation that was bringing chess to inner city kids and would i'd be interested in teaching kids in the Bronx and in Harlem. And I was in college at the time, and I was like, I don't know, you know, sounds interesting. And then they said, well, you know, for your level
of play, will pay you fifty dollars an hour. I was like, what college kid fifty an hour. I mean it was only like eight to ten hours a week, but still going to college and bringing that down. I was like, yo, this is it right here. You know when moms heard that, she was eyes lit up like okay, now you're finally getting paid, and it was you know, it's all gravy after that, absolutely, little Maurice. I appreciate
you for checking in and inspiring the youth. Yeah, and how and how did they get in touch with you? Do you got like a, I don't know, a class or something that's available some way to the tea young kids? You know, how to be like Marie. Well, you know, we have chess programs in Brooklyn with the Police Athletic League. But if you really want to find out about me, you can just go on our website Maurice Ashley dot com and I'm on all the social medias. You know,
you can hit me there too. All right, Well it's Maurice Ashley. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Thank you brother, thank you morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Steph Curry. This is the rumor report with angela year Breakfast Clubs. Well, Steph Curry is going to be creating a new brand with under Armour. It's called Curry Brand, so it's gonna be footwear, apparel
and accessories. And that extends his relationship with under Armour beyond his sneaker deal that he did back in twenty thirteen. Is that, um, he got equity and under Armor right then you got yeah yeah, okay, sooth to Steph Curry. Yeah, you usually got your shares at let'sten. That's why I was excited because I'm really hoping one day these shares going back up because I do have yes, some stuck in under armed kind of break down on us. But yeah,
we'll see hopefully shot back up. I just held on to it all the time and did nothing, so hopefully something really happens. Come on, Steph Curry. Let's go now. Laverne Cox, let's talk about her. Her and her friend were victims of a transphobic attack and she said it is not safe in this world. Here is her account
of what happened. Just walking through the park talking to my friend and then we passed this guy and the guy very aggressively asked for the time as he passes us, and my friend who I'm with that tells him the time. I sit and watch and tells him the time, and then the guy who had asked for the time says to my friend guy or girl. My friend says off, and then all of a sudden, the guy is attacking my friend. She called nine one one and and she said it was over. The guy was gone and he
just disappeared after that. You know, just to be minding your business and has somebody come up and attack you like that, it's crazy. Well, you know, on the side or not to say that they do it, they did anything wrong. But my daughter goes to school a NYU And that's the first thing I tell us. If somebody asks you a question, if they ask you, what time is it? I don't have a watch, Well you have your phone. My phone is dead. Like, don't talk to anybody.
Keep it moving because people are crazy, people are nuts, especially just something right. But you know what, even if they said that, I feel like he still would have been harassing them. Yeah, maybe he came out there with the intention of doing something. No matter what they said, they're not saying they did anything wrong. But I'm just saying, just people all crazy, give people the better fit of the doubt. No, I don't have nothing. I don't know nothing.
I've said on this radio a million times. You know. All we do is wake up every day and try to avoid other people's pain, try to avoid other people's hurt. I don't like I don't like the us the word crazy. We try to avoid other people's trauma because people are nuts. Yeah, all right, guys. And even right now, because of COVID, people are not getting the necessary medicine. So I'm seeing it a lot worse. Like New York looks like zombies. Yes,
it does in Midtown. Hell yeah, all right. Kevin Harts laugh out Loud has teamed up with Headspace, and that's for mindfulness content. So they'll be working with them to produce programming for both the Headspace app and for the laugh out Loud YouTube digital channels and so some things and people that they'll be working with include Amanda Seals. I guess she'll be showing how she does. They're doing
this YouTube series Meditate with Me, so hassamnage. Amanda Sales Dion Cole will take people through their meditation journeys, and they're also going to plan two pieces of content that will live within the Headspace app, Energy Shots with Kevin, which is a three to five minute daily motivational message encouraging listeners to take healthier actions that will be available to Headspace plus subscribers through the wake Up Hub and
Mindful Runs. It's part of the move Hub that will feature Kevin Hart guiding and motivating Headspace plus members during their workouts. You know, I'm here for that. That's a great segue from what we was just talking about. You know, people gotta, you know, do things to deal with their trauma, deal with their pain, you know what I mean, deal with you know, whatever issues they may be going through. Uh, going through that's an internal so you know, dropping a
clue for Kevin Half for that. She to a man the Seals and love you Seals. Shout out to a man the Seals, and shout out to Mama Seales. Every year they send like a big huge basket of fruit for the family and the kids. So yes, I got it a couple of days ago, a bunch of oranges and stuff. Great fruit. Oh I got range. I thought it was oranges too. And then when you could it open. You realized it's grateful, but I thought it was range just as well. I gotta send Mama Seals some some tea.
Send her basket to tea. All right now, Selena Gomez, there are some jokes about her on the news Saved by the Bell reboot that's on Peacock, and they actually referenced her kidney transplant. Listen to this, No, I know for a fact to Selena Gomes is kidney Jenner was justin Bieber's mom. I tho, I had my phone so that I could prove it true. What that You're an idiot? It was Jimmy Lovato's kidney. The best friends like you
and I were what. So you know, Selena Gomez did have a kidney transplant, and she was very vocal about it, you know, and she talked about her best friend giving her her kidney and it was a huge situation when it happened. Also in this episode, it says does Selena Gomez even have kidneys? That was some graffiti that was written on the wall. So a lot of people thought the jokes were disgusting and they said that her life
or death transplant was nothing to make jokes about. So since that happened, that series has scrubbed all references to her kidney transplant, and that edited version is streaming now, so you can't even find it anymore. Vado have to do with it nothing. It wasn't even the person that donated the kidney. I guess they were just making jokes. So I love the record with gez Demi Lovado on Little Duval. Well, we're not playing that. Get that on in the mix, Envy, the prerecorded mix that you did
on Money. If you play back the day, ask me nicely, no good, no, all right? And I know we also have something to talk about with Robin Hood, right DJ Envy, Yes, that's right. To night at seven pm, television and radio stations are joining together to present Heroes of New York
Rivalhood special. That's right. That happened tonight seven to a pm Eastern Time, and so one hour showed I was shining a light on the heroic efforts by New Yorkers from all walks of life to help their neighbors in need recover from the impact of the saying they don't read put it in your own words? Did put that in my own words? I ain't reading nothing sound like you read it, No them, tell them who The show will feature appearances by Daddy, Well, of course it's gonna
be us the Breakfast Club. We're appearing on there, as well as Alpaccio, Andy Cohen, John Stewart's, Jimmy Falla, Mariah Carry, Ryan Seacresty Nafe, Tracy more again, Michael Strahand. You know, a whole host of people from the Number one Giants, Davidson, Mariah Carry. You should have put us last after all these names, some big names, right, Well, you know, I
think it's important though. They are going to be shining a light on heroic efforts by New Yorkers from all different walks of life, These everyday heroes who have helped the city's most vulnerable survive, carry on and also rebuilt. So we want to make sure we acknowledge. Yeah, those people, their heroes. And Robin the Robin Hood Foundation has you know, been doing a lot of good things during the COVID pandemic.
They've been on the front lines. They're raised over twenty five million dollars to fund more than six hundred organizations to provide food, shelter, healthcare, education services, and even cash in some cases. So suit to my guy, who's more and everybody at the Robin Hood Foundation. Okay, well you can again tonight at seven pm on all New York television and radio stations. And can I give a shameless plug. This has nothing It's also national. This has nothing to
do with me. I just want to encourage people to watch Jingle Jangle on Netflix. Jingle Jangle is goddamn amazing. I watch Jingle Jangle six times. Okay, I sat down to my wife wanted us to watch it as a family, so we watched it on Thanksgiving night. I almost cried four times. And then when I started drinking and got on that edible, I watched it again tears. I watched it four times o the weekend, so much so that my twelve year old daughter was like she was talking
to her on on the phone. I was like, have you seen jingle Jego? Yeah? My daughter was like, yes, don't say it loud because my dad's gonna hear, and you're gonna turn it on again. Instant Classic Man, Ralphie and a Christmas Story has always been my goal to in regard to the holiday movies, but now Journey and Jingle Jangle is in that rotation. I'm telling you, I gotta watch it. They sent me a hold. They sent me a whole Jingle Jango gift box that was amazing.
Excuse me. It was a whole bunch of hair products in male organics. It was gift bags, all kinds of things. It's really nice. I didn't get none of that. But Jingle Jangle was fantastic, I mean incredible, like instant classic. I loved it. It made me feel like the first time I heard jeez thug motivation one on one. I can't explain to you with that feeling, all right, I'm just telling you that it's incredible, all right, I love it. Well,
thank you for that room of report. When we come back to People's Choice Mixes to Breakfast Club morning Morning, everybody is ste Envy, Angela Charlomine, the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. Now. Today is December first, my Dad's birthday. Happy birthday, Pops. But not only is it my dad's birthday, it's also World Age Day and we have a special guest on the line we haven't seen in a while because of COVID and the pandemic. We have David John.
Welcome back, brother. I appreciate you. It's good to be with y'all. Virtually sad that we can't be together in person. I like your light and David, you got the nice back like dark, but it's like you got the ring light of something I do. Yes, okay, carry was like just shining light. Yes, that's exactly what I want. That's what's on you. Nothing else matter. We always team up with David John's to do something that Juice is for Life, and we do HIV testing and we always make sure
we're very active with that. But this year, obviously we can't do that. So let's talk about World Age Day and even how this pandemic is shifting. Also some of the concerns that we have. Yeah, I'm really sad that
we can't be together in person. One of the things that I've looked forward to every year is highlighting the fact that too often our communities, Black and Latin X communities are most disupforceately affected by things like COVID, by things like HIV, and there's no such thing as democratized healthcare, and so we're able to show up in our communities
and provide the resources that we need. What we've seen over the last four years as a divestment of retrenchment from the progress that we have been making prior to the administration that I will not name. And what we also have seen is that so many members of our community, black folks, latin X folks, black LGBTQ folks have been
affected by the COVID exacerbation of this crisis. And so what we saw is that there were a lot of organizations who prior to COVID were investing and reducing stigma around HIV, increasing access to testing, a lot of the things that the National Our Justice Coalition focuses on. But once COVID hit around March, all of that shifted and then people were looking for the new shiny ball. And so what we know is that there isn't data collected
based on people's intersectional identities. There isn't really a lot of data that charted individuals who were living with HIV or who were predisposed to be HIV positive how they were affected by COVID. But what we know anecdotally as numbers of our community suffered disproportionately. So it has been a problem this administration and COVID and the other crises made it a problem and we still within our communities have to be sounding the alarm to stop people from
dying unnecessarily. I was asking earlier, I was gonna say that has anything changed? You know, we recognize World World Age Day every year and we talk about the testing, But is there anything closer to I guess a vaccine or any type of ute treatment or cure. You know, is there are we getting any closer to it? Yes, and things have changed, especially if you're white or have
access to the privilege associated with whiteness. So we've talked about this on this platform before, prep as a thing that has made it such that a lot of communities who were predisposed to HIV no longer have the eggs is around it because you can take a pillow every day that reduces the likelihood significantly. In the last four years, in spite of the things that this administration has not done,
there have been significant investments and people being undetectable. So what that means is that if you're living with HIV, if you're HIV positive, your viral load of suppress such that when you take a test for HIV will not test positive. Right, and so again this is about your viral load being suppressed and you're not being able to transmit HIV to a partner, to an intimate partner, even if you have unprotected sex. And so we know that
people are thriving with HIV. I think now about Big Sean who has a line, but I didn't think Kobe would leave before Magic, right, Like, it is still a thing for us to remember that there are people thriving with HIV. And it is also the sad reality that in spite of the fact that Black people make up around thirteen percent of the population in the United States,
we're nearly half of all cases of HIV. And so the point I'm trying to make is that there have been progress for some for some communities, we've seen the rates of HIV go down, the numbers of people who are undetectable increase, but it is still a problem in the Black community and not just black quitter trans and on binary folks who we tend to think about when we talk about things like HIV, but black sis had
or sexual people. Black women, and I've said this before, Black women right are the most effective group of any women, and that is because we are still not having as many conversations as we should about stigma. We're not having as many conversations as we should about sexual wellness more generally, and we're not taking advantage of the medical advancements that exist. Why aren't more people ringing the alarms about HIV and
A goo David? Because, like I promise you, though, I really only hear about it when you come on the show for HIV you know awareness Day, I don't. I don't hear about it, do idea? Yeah? I think that there's not enough attention paid to conversations around HIV and
popular media. And so while we have centered other things in media, For example, there's a lot of conversation about groundbreaking things like polls that have invited us to have more conversations about individuals with trans experience, the footnote here is that that has also increased violence. This year, we have seen more black trans women murder than eighty years since the data has been collected. We also celebrate the life of Monica Roberts, the transgriel who wrote these stories.
But I'll offer that as an example to say that the media and others have been intentional and highlighting stories that we need to talk more about, the same attention has not been paid to HIV and AIDS. There's just not enough discussion about it. I think the second thing is that this year, in particular, there were just so many battles to face right and to fight, especially when you think about this last administration. To be clear, there's
still work to be done in the new one. People are celebrating this new day, but we still got a whole lot of work to do. But I think that people were really distracted. And then the last thing is
that the last administration was really destructive. He who shall not be named disbandard the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV and AIDS patcha withdrew withdrew fards that have been invested prior to that administ station, regardless of the political party of the person that occupied the Oval Office, and really seemed to be intentional wanting to destroy all of the
resources that the government had been investing. And so I highlight that again to say that while there are so many resources that exist, medical, social, scientific, and otherwise, there have still been people, including the occupant of the Oval Office, who worked against all of the science and knowledge that we know and should otherwise be imploying. So what can we be doing this year on world AI's day to make sure that we show our support and that we
continue to educate and spread that knowledge. Yeah, I appreciate that question. If you can safely stop by Juicus Life, get yourself some juice and make sure that you're attending to your wellness. The other thing is that everybody should think about testing at home. The scientific and medical advancements have made it such that you don't have to go to a clinic or mobile testing unit to be tested. You can have a kit sent to your home and
you can be tested. The concern there is that usually when we test, especially at places like Juicus for Life a public, we have experts there who are equipped to respond and support you no matter what the results are. Again, HIV is not the death sentence that it once was. There are people in our community who are thriving with it, and so having someone with you who's trained to support no matter what the response is, it's incredibly important if you're going to test at home. And then the last
thing is that people should do more of this. I'm super thankful to you all for being consistent in sharing this platform because we need to start talking to stop HIV. That's not just a hashtag guard slogan. It's a real thing, and so I really hope that I know today is a busy day, an additionalle ages day. It's also giving Tuesday an opportunity to invest in nonprofit organizations like NBJC,
and I hope that people have conversation. So talk with people that you're intimate with about their sexual practices, what they're doing to ensure that they are safe and well and enjoy sex, and and then you can talk about what you're doing as well. People should be tested regularly. If you are having sex, you should be tested for everything consistently, right three to six months. That's I want to remind people to do that. And then if you need help, I acknowledge this is not an easy thing
to do. We've worked through this. We talked about language. We have a resource TOOLKITU at NBJC dot org. We provide language, We provide activities that you can follow. There are movies that you can watch, like ninety Days, which is a film about a heterosexual couple who deal with the topic of HIV in a way that I will not spoil. But all of it to say that there are tools to help anyone who desires to have this conversation.
