I didn't see it for the snow on the ground you eat. Well,

I'm actually in Detroit. Oh, you're in Detroit. Is the same in detroitor that it went to Weather Warning there too, went to it. Did it did snow yesterday, But it wasn't a foot of snow. It was maybe like four inches. Oh, okay, you guys, give me I'm better. Nope, you still sound like you're under a blanket of snow. Sir. All I'm all I'm saying is I hate when the meteorologists tells us that it's gonna be snow mcgeddon and then you're

waiting for snow mgeddon. So you go to the store the day before and you get all your snacks and supplies, and then you wake up in the morning and it don't look as crazy as they said. Well, lets you have snacks in the house. No, that's a good thing. That's a positive thing. I'm still trying to lose quarantine weight. Well, healthy, healthy snacks are good. That is right, that is true. Well, I'm actually in Detroit because we had a store opening for I did a little VIP thing for my hair

store that just opened out hair Private label. So that was pretty nice. We're not normally open on Sundays, but yesterday I just had a few VIP people come through, some stylists and people that work in Beauty Justice, so they could see the store and meet the manager and meet the owners. Okay, it's nice, beautiful thing. Dropping a Cools bomb for Pink Label in Detroit. Private label, private label,

private would be something different. We got front page news coming up you, Yes, and let's dig more into what's going on right now with the weather across the United States. But tell you about the storm. Who's going to be affected? How much snow can you expect? That's right, it's the world most dangerous. Want to show the breakfast club. It's mind dad pointing. Everybody is feed Jinny Envy angelu Ye, Charlomagne the guy We all to breakfast club? Do I

sound any better? Yes? Yeah, you're good? Thank God? All right, I know y'all talk about snow. Now. It's snowing out here in Jersey where I'm at. I mean like we must have about at least close to ten inches of snow. So it's snowing out here and it's still coming down.

But they have declared emergencies in New Jersey and New York City yesterday and they're saying there's blizzard conditions and there's almost eighty million people under winter storm watches right now with warnings and advisories across the midwest and northeast. In New Jersey, you guys do have a state of emergency and all New Jersey chrans and it's six vaccine megacites will be closed in New York City. The snow was not forecast to stop Monday until about a foot

had fallen. And so again, if you're traveling or if there's anything that you have going on right now, just make sure you check your flight information because there's a lot of places right now under winter store mornings. All right. Oh so the snows dropping the day too, Yeah, yep, all day to day, so we might get to that foot then over here, All right, what else we got you? Well, let's talk about Taylor Bracy. Now. I know we discussed this high school student who was slammed onto the floor

by a cop. Now she has headaches and memory loss, and her mother, Jamish and Bracy has spoken about out about her sixteen year old daughter. I got a phone call from my daughter stating that you know, some girls wanted to jump her. Two minutes later, you know, the dean called me to say that he was going to keep her, you know, in student services and to he investigate what was going on. Twenty minutes later, I get a call from the Assistant Principle to say that MT

want to check my daughter out. They didn't give me no details on what happened. He handed the phone to the Lieutenant MT for him to tell me that, you know, she didn't have any physical injuries to her her. You know that she looks fine. I'm telling you, man, if you watch that video, it's gonna take a lot of I don't know what it's gonna take a lot of.

I just know that you're asking too much of me as a human being to do something like that to my daughter, to do something like that to my sister, and expect me not to retaliate in some way, shape or form, like I don't give a damn. You can have to badge on, you can have the uniform on. At the end of the day, you're still a man and you're still a human. You gotta have some type of compassion and empathy for people. The person that did that, that young lady had no compassion and no empathy. Why

should he get treated like a human right like? He hasn't been fired yet, he hasn't been charged with anything. Well, Attorney Ben Crump joined Jimisha Bracy, who is telling Bracy's mother on TMZ Live, and here's what he had to say. She has problems with memory now, she has blurry vision, she has headache, she's having problems sleeping. And you would imagine that if you got slam like this where your head is getting the concrete, that you would have severe

issues too well for your cognitive functions. We are demanding that this officer be terminated and be charged were aggravated assault and battery. What's that coward's name again? I can't remember his name again. I gave him donkey to day last week. What's the coward police officers name? His name should be said? We don't never, We don't say his name enough, right, his name is Deputy Ethan Fournier. Yes, yeah, there you would. I wouldn't want this to happen, right.

I would want a woman that Ethan loves, right, the daughter sister, somebody like that young girl. I want somebody to slam her on her head and I want to see how he reacts, and however he reacts is how people should react towards him. Well, he didn't want another woman to get slammed, but I would like for him to be charged. I would like for him to get fired. I would like for him to go to jail, because

you can't just do things like that. She's a sixteen year old and you shouldn't be slamming any woman period. But you definitely shouldn't be blaming anyone. But I would love to see how he would react to somebody doing that the old woman that he loves, and however he reacts is how people should react. Yeah, that's I mean, that sounds good, but he's like he's like he said, you don't want anybody, especially random and innocent, to get slammed, But you want him to get effed up, like you

want him to go to jail. You want him to see to get some real pain because what he did was cowardly. Come on, cowardly not even the word. That's an understatement. He just asking too much of a human being, as just a human on his planet, to do something like that to somebody I love and think I think there should be no retaliation. Come on, man. Yeah. Unfortunately, I don't have much good news for everyone this morning.

I mean, there's a school resource officer who used a taser on the female students that they said the girl was involved in a fight with another student. That's also not good news, you know, the deputy. Yeah, but the cop says he tried to stop her. She attacked him by punching him several times in the head, and then he said he tried to talk her down, it didn't work, and she allegedly punched him in the face. There's videos on TikTok that are showing the struggle the cop had

with the student as he tried to restrain her. He said he warned her he was going to taser if she didn't stop resisting. When she ignored that, he fired the taser and she went down. When that happened, I don't care. I don't care what you've been trained to do as a police officer. At some point, regular human compassion has to kick in and your mind has to say, I can't treat a ten or eleven year old like this. Now. The person you're talking about was in Rochester, and that's

a nine year old girl. She was handcuffed and pepper sprayed by police officers responding to a report of family trouble in Rochester, New York. Hold on, we're not even talking about the same thing, isn't that now? It's a third one. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's not good news today, My goodness. All right, that is front page news. Get it off your chest? Eight drew five eight five one five one. If you need to vent, hit us

I'm a twitch bill embarrassed saying that I'm on my way to work right now by fiance I sent to jail yesterday because of his actions. But what he did mean but I took him back and I don't know what really to do. I'm really trying to work this out. He got a couple canceling and saying

what's going on? But the reason why he went there because he just doesn't listen to hes anger issues, and I don't know what to do. It sounds like you need to do a lot of work on himself. He needed to do some therapy. Sounds like it's to me some anger management. He got a lot of unhealed trauma you need to deal with. Do you feel like you're you're in danger? I don't know. I'm not sure. Honestly. The issue is I'm trying to I don't know why.

I feel like I'm trying to help him, and I don't think no. I'm telling myself I deserve better, but he is a good person and a good man to it. But I don't I don't understand why I was taking back. He's gotta get he's gotta want to get the help that he needs to. You can't make somebody better or make them get help. They have to want to do it for themselves. You're right, I don't know what you don't. I don't know what you want us to tell you this morning, because I think that you know all answers.

You're just holding on to this idea of something as opposed to dealing with the reality of it. But you know what you need to be doing. And sometimes you enable somebody when you actually keep giving them a pass and making excuses. All right, mama, all right, hello, who's this? You know what's going on? What's something?

Lifetime cast could have got a little coarsely trash. You got a headband on? I thought it was like, you know, you didn't even looked at old bro. What they do you like that? Look? Mad?

Thank you a lot man, all right, get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need to vent. You can hit this up now. We got rumors all the way, yes, and I guess we can start it off with the Wendy Williams spire pick and things that Wendy Williams has

had to say. We also, this morning are gonna have a statement from somebody who Wendy recently spoke about. So that's gonna be exclusive this morning. All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. God morning, it's the Breakfast Club. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Ye Breakfast Club listening. So a lot of people were watching this Wendy Williams lifetime biopic followed by her documentary where she gets very honest about a lot of things

that happened in her life. She had some struggles with her weight and with bulimia. Here's what she had to say. Weight has always been a big deal to me, and that seed was planted, you know, growing up my father the first man who loves you. The first message about my weight is, Wendy, you have such a pretty face. If you just lose some weight. I would get weighted

constantly by my mother and father. I knew. I knew that my mother would harp on her weight, and you know, it wasn't comfortable for her, and Wendy would make herself throw up after dinner. I stopped doing that. I'll tell you why, because I was reading about some of these Hollywood actresses who had done that. But her teeth started to rot out, and I said, Okay, this is not

the way to go. I don't feel like they let the parents explain their position on that enough in the documentary, because I was wondering why they're doing that for cosmetic reasons or health reasons, Like I wondered why they were so you know, passionate about her losing weight, why her parents were passionate about it. Oh yeah, and where her

parents were yes, right, yeah. I mean, and your parents can definitely make you feel away when they're like, oh, you gained some weight, Oh you got big, Oh you need to stop eating that. I don't I don't know if you remember, but growing up, if you were overweight, it was like like you always were made fun of. It was one of those things where especially parents back then, wanted you to lose weight. They figured, you know, stay outside, keep working. And I mean I thought that was in

most kids growing up. When I used to see it though back then, all right. Now. In addition to that, Wendy was very honest about a situation that happened to her where she interviewed an artist, and she says she was date raped. Early in my radio career, there was this artist and he had the number one song on the R and B charts at the time. He came and did an interview on my radio show, and he asked me out for dinner. And when we went to his hotel, he invited me to his room and I went.

He goes in the bathroom to you know, do whatever. When he comes out, he's got like nothing on up here, boxers, and my dumb behinds just getting up and walking out. I'm like, okay, I'm gonna see how far this is going to go. I don't I don't want to have the sex. So he ended up pushing himself on me and he did rap me. Yeah, And he never said his name in the dock, but he said his name in the press. Right, she talked about it, and she did reveal what his name was. And he's passed. He's

he's no longer alive. And I remember his guest, his widow did speak out in question why she would bring this up now, and that he's not here to defend himself, but she did reveal who he was if you want to search that now. In addition, Wendy spoke on the miscarriages that were very difficult for her that she had before finally giving birth to her son, Kevin Junior. He didn't want to get married. He wasn't marriage minded, he had never seen a successful marriage. Thank god. We were

on the same page with that. But then I got pregnant and things changed. Then we had a five month miscarriage and that was devastating. Kevin came to me and said, look, marry me, and I said yeah. So after we got married, I got pregnant again. The entire city saw me have two five month miscarriages, and I had to deliver the baby's like with that dooral and the push push push, and the nurses they said, do you want to know

if it's a boy or a girl? I said no, Do you want a funeral or what do you want? I said, just go man, that's so sad. Well, a lot of that was in Wendy's first book too, By the way, it's a great read if you've never you've never read Wendy's first book, right, It's crazy hearing her even disgusted. That's so difficult, just giving birth, knowing that baby's not going to be alive, but still going through that whole process. She also talked about catching Kevin cheating

when their sem was only two months old. I wake up like two o'clock in the morning to go to the bathroom. I just delivered him two months ago, and Big keV wasn't in the bed. And then I walked into young Kev's nursery and I hear my husband talking greasy on the phone. And then I lose it and jumped to the room. I say, what's going on? He told me it was some girl, some bank teller he met at a bank. He's ending it and so on and so forth. And I honestly believe that he was

chaining on me. And I don't know how to be a mother. I wanted this, But what do I do now? Did y'all like the movie? Did y'all like the movie? And doc what y'all enjoy? I thought it was entertaining, And regardless of how people feel about Wendy personally, I think she actually has been through a last. She is very resilient. She was resourceful. She put herself out there. It's not easy. It's not an easy world to navigate the way that she did. Um. Yeah, I enjoyed. I

enjoyed it. Okay, now I was gonna say it was. It was. I enjoyed it. I just don't think it was real. Just being in New York and being in the scene and a lot of those times and seeing what went on that wasn't one hundred percent factual. A lot of the stuff in my opinion, what I've seen and what I heard. Um, but it was good. It was. It was a good movie. It's a lifetime movie. She kept it, she kept it fifty. She didn't keep it on a hundred. I enjoyed the documentary, um, more than

the movie. It was. It's not that it was a lot of fabrication. It was just a lot of omissions, right, you know what I mean? But it is all omissions. But it is hard because it was it's a long span of time too to put into a movie. Doctor, the one you're in and the one that you're not in. What are you talking about because you're supposed to be which which doctor did you like better? The doc. Yeah, I enjoyed the Doctor movie. But I'll tell you one thing.

A lot of women um that helped Wendy on the way up didn't get a lot of love either, you know, Helen Little in particular, Like there is no Wendy in Philly without Helen Little. And I feel like a black woman should give another black woman that credit for assisting her back in the game. But that's that's just me drop on a clues box for Helen Little. By the way, I don't think Philly got a lot of love in her story at all. It was just kind of like a drive buy on Philadelphia. Philly got a little bit

of love, she said. She did Philly and New York call back and she you know, raced back to New York. But yeah, got a little love for Phillies would really really put her back in the game as far you know. It's interesting when I I was out one night and I ran into Wendy and Kevin, and I didn't even know them that well. I only knew Wendy from having

interviewed her a couple of times as serious. And that's when I had gotten an offer for Philly to do mornings, and they came up to me and they were like, listen, don't go to Philly. They were like, whatever you do, don't go to Philly. Just wait for a New York offer to come through. Don't go do mornings in Philly. And I say, damn, how do they even know I got an offer? I love Philly. Disrespectful, I tell you what they said. I was like, how did they even

know about it? If you go to phil and you have success in radio, nine times out of ten, you're gonna have success in New York. And Philly has helped many a radio personality in that day. I wasn't Philly doing one is on one hundred point three to beat for like nine months before they fired my ass. Okay, but she told me, she says, she says she went to Philly. She says she went to Philly because she couldn't be in New York, so she had to go to Philly until she was able to go back to

New York. Yeah, but that means a lot, you know what I mean, having that place that embraces you and you still get to, you know, keep your name out there and keep your radio chops going, like Philly did a lot. Trust me, I was looking for apartment, so already I was like, let me see where can I live if this happens? So the whole how you doing phrase? She got that from Wendy, I got that for Philly. I forgot the brother d d Light. I think his

name is d something. But we'll be talking more about this, and I'm sure people are gonna call and weigh in as well. But that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now we got front page news next. What were talking about? Yeah, you know, the news has been very depressing this morning, but I do have something we want to talk about. A UFO that was spotted. That's right, my cousins are here. Let's go baby. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a lock this to

Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is j Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all to Breakfast Club. Let's gett some front page news and where we're starting you, Well, let's start with this UFO. There were clear shots of a UFO that was spotted above the freeway on the outskirts of LA and an eyewitness took these pictures last Saturday.

They said she was on the phone and then she saw this thing hovering in the sky, flying in the same direction she was heading, with a group of lights that were trailing behind it. The eyewitness said, she shot three consecutive photos and I don't know, did you Did you all see these pictures? They said, it's not photoshot. I know I saw you know. I'm all in on UFOs and extraterrestrials. And if you've been paying attention for at least the past years, they're preparing to tell us

what we already know. And what we already know is that we're not alone. Uh, in all of these millions of universes and galaxies. Okay, and there are it's intelligent life that's way more intelligent than us out here in these screets, these universal screets. Yeah, so who knows what's about to happen soon. We need it, the world needs Yeah, we need to know if they friendly, if they come in peace, human or they want or they want to smoke?

Were they not human? They got emotions just like everybody else. Would you walk up to the UFO if it was on the ground, No, nah, no, But it depends, right, It depends on It depends on how they how they how they come to us, you know what I mean. And by the way, calling them, we keep calling them aliens. We're aliens to them as well. You know, we're just not as smart as them, because if we were, we could travel to their planners and things as well. We can't,

but they can't. I'm telling you, if you think that the universe is not as diverse as the Earth, you're bugging all of these different life forms that's here on Earth, all of these different animals, things in the water, things in the wards, things in the sky. You think the universe isn't as diverse? If you're crazy? Come on all right now? Former President Donald Trump's his five impeachment defense attorneys have left him and it's about it a week

before his trial is set to begin. So he did hire two new attorneys, But why would they leave at the last minute like that? They said, he's been having some problems. Came will nobody on Earth would represent him. Nobody on Earth would represent him. Aliens came and then the Aliens was like, you know what, this is a losing cause that's what the UFO was over La. They

were picking up his defense team and they left. I saw what some speculation is because they're saying, as an attorney, you cannot defend something that you don't agree with or you don't think it's true. And I guess he's been focused so much on this fraud with the election, and they didn't agree with that. So some people are speculating that's why, because he really is focused on this fraud and it's not really about you know, the Capitol riots and all of that. So I'm not sure why these

attorneys have left him. But he does have two new attorneys that are representing him, a defense lawyer David Shoon and Bruce cast who is a former da from Pennsylvania. He faced some criticism for his decision to not charge Bill Cosby in a sex crimes case. And the other attorney that we just mentioned, David Shone, actually met with Jeffrey Epstein about representing him because he doesn't believe that Jeffrey Epstein also committed suicide. He said as well. So

those are his two new attorneys. Jesus Christ Yeah, and one last thing, Anderson Cooper. He confronted a man who is part of what was part of qann and it was an awkward conversation on CNN. Listen to this, did you at the time believe that high level democrats and celebrities were worshiping Satan drinking the blood of children? Anderson, I thought you did that, and I would like to

apologize for that right now. So I apologize for thinking eight babies specause she specifically mentioned you, and he mentioned you very early on. They're gonna be honest, like, people still talk about that to this day. There were posts about that just four days ago. Some people though your robot, Oh my god. What people People like that are the

biggest losers. They don't believe in themselves are their own greatness, and when they see somebody else being great, they have to justify their own failures by saying, Oh, that person is only in that position because they eat babies, or that person is only in that position because they drink blood, that person is only in that position because they do sacrifices. You're not much of a loser you have to be.

And how much low self esteem you have to have, and how much not belief in yourself you have to have to justify your failures by saying stuff like that about other people. Come on, it's just so weird, all right, Well, that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss Yee. Now when we come back, let's open up the phone lines. Eight hundred five eight five one five one. Now, the Wendy Williams movie was on Lifetime over the weekend. Did you see it? Let's talk about it? What were

your thoughts? Phone lines are wide open. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Let's talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club biggest what's the biggest lies you saw from the Windy Willams movie. That's another good topic. Boy, it's topic time called eight hundred five eight five one oh five.

So let me let me ask you. Let's start with you, what were the biggest lies on that movie.

You know, it wasn't so much a fabrication, but I just think a lot of old mission, you know, being like the way the way they made Kelvin look in the movie. Kelvin uh was was was far from who I think he was. Did he hold Wendy down? Yes, but he also used a lot of those insecurities she had about her weight to keep her down, you know what I mean? Like that that's the that's the mental and emotional abuse. Like he would constantly remind her that she was a fat bitch. Nobody wanted his constant words,

not mine. And I think Calvin being a tough guy. I don't know where that came from, because I've seen Calvin get punk quite a few times in these streets. What you might well, maybe but maybe she felt like maybe she felt like he was protecting her. Maybe she didn't even really know that's true. But you know I wouldn't also very close to the situation. And you you have a huge hate for Kevin Hurlter. I don't. I don't hate him. Hate is a strong word. I just I dislike him. I no, No, he is a trigger

for me. That man was hanging off of a Cliff and you were there, would you help him up or would you be like you knowing your own bro, I pray for him. I say, whatever God got planning for you in this moment, okay, it's what he had. What God had planned for you in this moment. And and I don't like I don't like how I don't like how how they brushed by Philly in the movie. You

know what I'm saying, there's a radio guy. You know, Philly has played a very pivotal role in a lot of radio careers, and it definitely played a pivotal role in her career. And I don't think Wendy took the time to not only properly big up Philly, but big up another black woman who gave her that opportunity in Philly, and that's Helen Little. You know, I would have liked shouting a little more mentioned of Carter and Sanborne, you know, Kobe and d you know d Lee is where she

got to how you doing from? I just think it should have been a lot more you know, homage paid to Philly. But I will say this, you know, it's a long lifetime. I mean, this is what forty years of Whendy's life broken down to what two hours three hours?

So there's a lot that had to be taken out, and a lot of the producers are looking for the juice, they're looking for the things that's gonna keep people there, and maybe editing they took a lot of that out, because even when the actor was there, they said they took a lot of the scenes out. Especially they said the domestic violence they took out. So they took a

lot of things out. You know. Well, she said that she said that that never happened at all, but that she never that she never got physically Abut I saw her say that in the documentary. The actor said it that they took it out. Listen, I got eyes, ain't whatever. But maybe she didn't want to do that because of their son too. Maybe. But between the movie and the documentary, it's just still little tiny details, especially in the dock that I thought could have um could have been highlighted.

But most specifically, you know her time and her time in Philadelphia, and I feel like she brushed past her time at high ninety seven too. She did. She definitely seven played such a pivotal role in her career. Like I understand that you know, she may have some ill feelings toward Hi ninety seven, but don't just brush by it because of your ill feelings, you know what I mean. No, and at the time and thinks Charlomagne's characters should have

been in there a little bit more. No, I wasn't about Charlomagne or Skeleton or any of other co hosts. I don't think I was just hust brief moment in her life. Act. I worked with Wendy for three years. That's a blip. That's a blip in a fifty six year life. Now I do agree. I think Hot ninety seven, I think Hot ninety seven, in my opinion, made Wendy that name that she was. Of course, the BBLS taken to another stratosphere, but you gotta think during that time

they had think about it. They had starrm Buck in the morning, Wendy Williams doing mid days, Angie Martinez flex at night, and then they had fat Man Scoop doing overnights like that was the DREA team. You know, I understand this. The movie was an hour and thirty minutes. I mean, how much stuff can you get in it? But even with the dock, the dock was another couple of hours. They could have got some of that stuff in there, like how you just brushed by the fight

with you and Angie Martinez. But she referred to Angie at some part time little part time. Yeah, that was whack. She have no part time. She was full time and she was busting ass. And she continues to bust as. Shout to Angie Martinez and yes, the whole legend. Yeah, her and Angie Martinez got into a fight and Angie Martinez gave her a two piece in the biscuit. WHOA, I don't know what it was. I was. I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, Angie shout the edge.

But let's go through the phone lines. Hello, who's this. My name is Ashley. I'm from North Carolina. Well, I actually live in North Carolina, but I'm from Philly. Okay, what did you think about the movie? The Windy Ways movie? What's up? Charlomagne and Angelas? What's happening? So m Z basically what I felt. I would agree with Charlemagne because she did do a drive by on Philly. I never heard of her before the time of her being f Philly, and I'm thirty four but I always knew her to

be in Philly first and mayapin. But that's how I saw it, the whole how you're doing, it's exactly what Charlomagne said. And it was a short time she made it thing like. It was kind of like a few months, like a month or two, and then it was just like, all right, I'm done. Hello more than that, Yeah, I thought I did. Yeah, she spent a lot of time in Philly, and I thought that she really needed to embrace that, because we did embrace to a lot a lot. Yeah.

All right, well, thank you, mama. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. We're talking about the Wendy Williams movie. Did you see it? What were your thoughts? Let's discuss it? All right, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Call me and your opinions to the Breakfast Club tops. Come on eight one holding Everybody's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. If you just join us, we're talking about the Wendy

Williams movie. We're asking what were your thoughts? Let's talk about it. Um, let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this Hey Va, how y'all doing breakfast club? What's up? Big? What's your thoughts on the Wendy Williams movie. Oh my god? Why Charlomagne wasn't in there? He was? He had I know, but to do they had playing was a quick snippet. So I wonder to know if Charlemagne you're going after them for that, because I know your beef is with Wendy.

It's not. Actually, I mean it's with Kevin, not with Wendy. No. I got love for Wendy, you know. I mean, Wendy is a is an abused human being and has been an abused him and being for a long time. So I'll have empathy for Wendy. But now I don't have no beef. I ain't wake up this morning and choose violence. I don't care. Okay, I'll be here all right. I appreciate that. I think you want to give a shout out to my wife, Tsha, I love you, baby. Okay, Hello,

who's this? This is Ashley? Hey Ashley, good morning. What did you think of a Wendy Wine's movie? You know, I thought that she was telling some of the story but not telling all of the story. It was like some things. It was obvious that she was leaving out details and it just wasn't making any sense. Yes, she kept it fifty, not a hundred. She kept it fifty. Yeah. I feel like it's hard for anybody to when they're telling their own story, to be completely honest. I don't

know that people really do. Like I read people's autobiographies and I'm like, mm, there's always more than one side and people see I feel like people see themselves differently than other people see them too, And if you tell your side of the story, like there should be details in there that make your side of the story makes sense. Like even when she was talking about going to rehab, she started talking about how she was drinking too much wine, but then she passed out in the in the Statue

of Liberty costume. But she never actually said she passed out because she was drunk. She just showed her passing out, so she never actually connected the dots. So it's kind of like, wait, what a lot of a lot of half truth was in that? Definitely was a lot of half truth in that. Yeah, okay, all right, well thank you mama, Hello, who's this? This is what Tisha loved it? Okay, yes, good, good, good, Okay, tell us what she loved about it, because it showed

vulnerable parts about her. Whether it was true or not, you guys, you have to admit just her being able to tell that type of story showed a different side Wandy that somebody is going to actually learn from and it's gonna encourage somebody out there, even the race thing. There's someone out there today that because of what Wendy showed, she's that person is going to say, you know what, let me tell this in therapy, or let me tell you know, my mom, or let me tell my dad

that this happened to me. Everybody Wendy, but she's she's valid in a lot of circles, you guys, she really is. Well a lot of those stories you know, she's been telling for years on the radio, and you know they were they were in her first book if you've ever read her first book. But I get, I get what you're saying. This is a new generation. Yeah that Charlotte Mayne. So um, I didn't start hearing about Wendy until I moved to Delaware, and that was in two thousand and five.

So there's people who never like my mom. For instance, my mom hates Wendy William but she watched the movie and now she's looking at her differently. You know, she's get that. Yeah, she she encourages me just because of her story and just because she's a woman and where she's been able to be angel was just like you. Just because where'd you guys have been able to get yourself is encouraging to women. Whether you know, there's gonna be part because this is Wendy, She's gonna tell her story.

But that's what we all do. We want to be able to tell our story. And that's what she did. She told her story the way she believes it right, you know. And and there's there's fragments in there that I'm pretty sure are true, but I think it was needed in the documentary for me, You guys was a lot better than the movie too. Agree too. I watched

it twice. I watched it twice and it it gave me something this morning, you know, right listen, regardless of right, it was entertaining enough that people who have already watched it twice, everyone was talking about it. It It was trending. Yeah, all right, thank you. Eight hundred five eighty five one o five one let's take some ball calls. A lot of people on the lines. Let's talk about the Wendy Williams movie. What were your thoughts at the breakfast club?

Good morning, it's topic time called eight hundred and five eight five one oh five. Wanted to join him to the discussion with the breakfast club. Talk about it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we all the breakfast club. Naphew just joined us. We're talking about the Wendy Williams movie and documentary. What were your thoughts? All right, let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? This is Kim Slash Keigo and Columbus represent Columbus Cincinnati

in Ohio. What did you think of the document the movie? Um? And actually sorry, I got a frog in my voice this morning. But I am a female. I got a deep voice. Okay, sorry, so sorry? Now you cool? Now are you cool? I understand. I understood Wendy story. Okay, Wendy fell in love. I understand a lot was sabricated for TV. I get it. But at the core of it, she fell in love with an African American male. She didn't go out none against what outside to raise, but

she wanted a brother. She liked it rough on the edges. She accepted him for him, He accepted her for her. But at the end of the story, anybody that does not understand why she everybody has a breaking point. It was about him having another baby. Now women could see here all day long say I would have left a long time ago. She was in love for self esteem when she was a kid, was local. She fell in love.

So I think we need to stop blaming African American women for being as strong as they are and staying with our brothers. And it's their fault. No, the breaking point was on pull the talk. He knew she had miscarriccause he knew he fought that fight would her and then to go have another baby. That that just that that blew the top off that that is something when Wendy would always say that. Wendy was like, I can forgive cheating, but I can't forgive a baby. She always,

she would always she meant it. That wasn't cool. But I just wanted to say, I love your show. I love your show. You guys to knowledge through the whole campaign, through everything, I appreciate you keep doing what you doing okay? Thank you? Hello? Who's this this kid? Hey? What's up? Man? What do you think about the the Wendy Williams movie. Well, for me, man, I was at Philadelphia from from O three to OD five and out basically there for the

wind the Williams Show. So I didn't bother to watch it because I seen the trailer and it really wasn't what was portrayed throughout the city. How you ain't see the movie, but you called them. Make you give your opinion? Man, you ain't see exactly the trailer. I see the trailer.

Go bye. Man. Even though, even though, even though I don't like how she brushed by Philly, Like I said, Philly played a very pivotal role in her career, and I don't think she took the time to properly big up Philly and you know, big up people who helped her in her journey, you know what I mean, like like like a like a Helen Little you know, all the Morning Team that she did the show within Philly, Kobe Cole uh dey dele is what she got? How

you doing from Carter and Sanborne? You know what I mean? I just thought, you know, I just thought the radio part of it. A lot more love could have been been shown, all right, all right, Well we got roomors on the way, Oh way, man, all the story I think, I want to say, I think Wendy deserves all the flowers, but I really hope she gets real healing one day, because she experienced a lot of hurt. So she heard a lot of people, and she's been mentally, emotionally and

physically abused her whole life. Her sister Wander said something real interested in the dock with She said, when Wendy's life was like like falling apart the last couple of years, she Wendy thought it was because of all the dirt she had thrown on people. And I thought that was very interesting observation for her to have. So yeah, I appreciate everything I learned from her, but I half truth is, it's still a whole lot to me. All right, now,

we got rumors on the way. Well we'll talk some more, Wendy. This person has written a statement about Wendy Williams in response to some things that Wendy Williams has had to say about her and her family. And I'll tell you who that person is. But she didn't say that we won't forever be one of the most miserable bitches on the planet. I can't believe Sherina Hudson would send you a statement. Shut up, man, shut up. That came from Charlomagne. But we'll talk about the next is the Breakfast Club

The Morning, the Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, angela Ye, Charlomagne, the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk about Wendy Williams. It's about angela Ye the Breakfast Club. All right. Well, Method Man's wife Tamika has spoken out and she's released a statement on her Instagram page and response to what Wendy Williams had to say about Method Man. She was talking to DJ

Saswan and here's what she said. The only thing I did I smoked a blunt with Red Man, excuse me, with Method Man while I gave him a bath and it was a one night stam and he'll deny it. Maybe not. You know, that wasn't in the movie. It wasn't in the movie. It wasn't in the movie because Red Man or excuse me, Method Man is still very angry at me. I don't know for for being me.

It was one night, all right. Well, Tamika broke it down on her social media on Instagram, she said, for years, I kept my silence and this is the first time she's ever addressed this at all. By the way, while Wendy Williams launched constant verbal attacks against my husband, myself, and our family in the past, I ignored her lies, innu windows and blatant attempts to provoke us. But Wendy has proven again and again that she is incapable of

any decency. Her obsession with our lives has reached a new low, and I'm tired of taking the high road and an obvious attempt to increase ratings for her sad biopic, her struggling TV show, and her burnt out career, Wendy has once again targeted my husband. It's a pattern that she has repeated for years. When I was diagnosed with cancer years ago, Wendy shared my personal medical information with her listeners alive on the air during her radio broadcast.

She didn't care that she was violating my rights to privacy or that I hadn't shared the news of my diagnosis with my family and friends. Yet she never apologized never expressed any regret whatsoever. Despite my anger, I chose not to spound publicly to her unhealthy fixation with my husband and our marriage. It was clear that she was sick and that she was struggling with a lot of issues,

including self hate and low self esteem. Over the years, those issues have made her increasingly ugly both inside and out, and no amount of plastic surgery can fix the ugliness inside of her. Instead of using her platform to uplift women, she has spent her career attacking marriages while her own fell apart. She criticized celebrities battling addictions despite her own struggles with subcepstance abuse. There's no limits to how low

she will go in the name of making headlines. She goes on to say, for the record, my marriage is solid, my husband continues to enjoy successful career, and Wendy will forever be one of the most miserable bitches on the planet. Jesus Christ. I mean, look, a lot of valid points made, a lot of valid points made you know Wendy is miserable, and that's why I send her healing energy because I've

never seen her happy before in my life. And yes, she should apologize to Tamika and her family because you don't people it was it was to ask the question s someone didn't even ask a question. You wanted to say that, and uh, Meth the man to me because y'all should have sued Wendy Williams a long time ago when she released that information that was against the law to release that information. You should have sued her. You

should have sued the station. You should have made sure that never happened ever again, because what that did was foul. That information should have never been out unless you wanted to put that information. Now, we've been here, you know, doing the Breakfast Club for a long time now, and there's time when we say something to an artist and the artist and said, hey, you know, I don't want that information out. My family doesn't even know. And we went back on some of the stuff that we've done

so we know what's right. And that was foul. Well, Meth didn't want to sue her because I remember when met Farm came to the radio station one day after Wendy and Calvin were on the air, kicking his back end and he came to the station and that was That was one of the reasons he did come to the station because he was like, y'all just need to know who at the hospital gave you that information so I can follow lawsuit. Absolutely absolutely right, and he should

he should have. He was there during that time. And they can't act like she doesn't know why methy Man has an issue with her. Of course he has an issue with you. You revealed his wife's cancer diagnosis before she had a chance to address her own family. Yes. Yeah, I was on the air that day and Kelvin and Wendy was kicking kicking Mess back in and Kelvin walked downstairs, and I guess as he was walking down Meth was coming up. I'm shocked that they didn't see each other.

And the secretary was like, methy Man's in the lobby. So I called Calvin. I'm like, yo, Mess in the lobby. He was like yo for what? Like yo, you know

for what? Like we go out there studing. So my dumb ass, when I go see what methy Man wanted, and me and Meth had a conversation, and you know, he wanted information from the hospital, you know, and he, of course he wasn't happy about what Wendy and keV was saying, but needless to say, Kevin never bought his monkey ass back up to that station, even though I know he was probably right downstairs, but he did not come back up when he knew Methys in the lobby.

Those problems, all right. So that statement again is on Tamika's Instagram page if you want to read the full statement of what you had to say about Wendy Williams and Wendy still harassing her and her family. But I think after you know, decades of having to deal with this, she finally felt like this was her breaking point. Just leave us alone, stop talking about my family. Shout to her for being so so damned strong. Shout to you. Yeah,

I mean they're still together and still happily married. Meth is still doing well. So this is the first time we heard her mention this, and she kept calling him redman, all right. Now. Chloe from Chloe and Hallie went on Instagram yesterday and she was talking about her own journey to self love and here's what she had to say. And for so long I used to think I was like fat and like I used to hate my stretch marks. I might sell you like I'm not gonna cry but

it's like, now I really love who I am. When I see all the uproar about my posts and stuff, I'm a bit confused, Like I really don't understand because I've never seen myself in that way or in that light. So I take it as a huge compliment that you all even think of me as a sexual, sexy being. Man, I love Chloe and Hallie. Yeah, what am I missing?

People slandering her or something. Yeah, they were never kind of like shaming her for, you know, posting the videos that she posted, and I felt like a lot of people were like, Okay, you know, get a girl. But then there were people that had some things to say about her being sexy and issues with that. Yeah, it's ridiculous, Chloe, Chloe, that's just hate. Okay, It's called hate, all right. Do

we not realize how miserable people are? So when they see you online enjoying your life and other people enjoying you, they get jealous and they get envious. It's called eight, that's all it is, okay. And in like, you got to remember the rule of ten two three people gonna like it, three people not gonna like it, four people gonna be on defense about it like for people not to like something that's just that's just natural. I wouldn't even you know what else. It's hard for her too.

She's apart from her little sister, Hallie, and Hallie had started filming a Little Mermaid. She's got a starring role in that, and they were on Instagram live together and it got very emotional. I just miss my sister's bright personality, her positive energy always around. She's literally the sun because she just makes everything just feel like brighter and better. And that's what I missed the most about myself. Hallie. Yeah,

so it's just I don't know, it's different. And then I'm the little sister, so being away just really like tugs up like you're gonna make me cry. They are so sweet. I really like, Yeah, my five year old and my two year old like that with each other. I love watching it. Yeah, and they're very like. I've interviewed them a few times, and I've talked to them about what is it grownish that they're on? Right? Grownish and justice sweet? This nicest young women, super talented, so dope.

I've seen them perform like they're amazing girls. So let's show them some love, all right, that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Eye. Now Charlomage, who you give it that donkey too? Well, since I got traumatized by this video, I might as well put you all onto the story, so y'all could be traumatized too. We need police officers in Rochester to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with them on this fine Monday morning, first day of Black

History Month. All right, we'll get to that next. It's the breakfast club. Come morning, It's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being donkey of the day a little bit of a mix up. So like a do other day. Now, I've been called a lot of my twenty three years. It's Monday man. Donkey today for Monday, February first, the first day of Black History Month, goes to police officers and roch in New York. I

hate when they don't identify these officers as individuals. The reason I believe they don't is to protect their safety, protect their identities. Maybe they don't want to bring shame to their fellow police officers, even though they deserve all the shame this society could possibly give them. Now. I don't even know how I ended up watching this video yesterday, because I am not the person who actively seeks trauma

via social media. What I mean by that is all the videos of police brutality that circulate online and folks share with each other and it enrages you, outrages you, traumatizes you, and we share that trauma with each other for whatever reason. I don't look for those all. Right, to me, these videos should be used as evidence in the court of law, but hell, I don't even think they hold up in court because we see cops victimizing

us all the time on camera and nothing happens. But a BS investigation isn't paid administratively, okay, even though there's never anything to investigate, because we all got eyes, you can see what the hell is happening on the video. So I don't know what the point of any of these videos are except to traumatize us. And that's exactly with the video of the Rochester Police Department handcuffing and

pepper spraying a nine year old girl. Did to me, Yes, you heard right, Rochester police handcuffed and pepper spray a nine year old girl. I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's go to Wham ABC thirteen for the report police what started as a family trouble call ended with a nine year old girl in the back of a police cruiser, handcuffed, then pepper sprayed got her the incident again raising questions about the use of excessive force by Rochester police spying. Let's go the girl pepper sprayed

by an officer after failing to comply with police. The call came Friday afternoon for the initial report of family trouble and a possible stolen vehicle. Ultimately, city officials say the child was suicidal, threatening to cause harm to herself and others. Seriously, what about a badge in a uniform makes you forget you too are human? Does this badge

in the uniform just automatically make you a sociopath? Like you got called to this house and told that this young nine year old girl was suicidal and that she indicated that she wanted to kill herself and she wanted to kill her mom. First of all, police shouldn't be responding to this. Where is the mental health team? Where is the mental health crisis unit? If you notice nine year old girl is having a potential manic episode, How does this end with her being victimized and treated like

a criminal? How do you officers treat your own kids? When you see officers treat people treat other people's kids like this, doesn't it make you want to send child services to their house to make sure everything is okay? Because there have been studies that have found at least

forty percent of police officers families experienced domestic violence. When you see the way these officers man handle women in the streets, it's not hard to believe that, okay, that that's what they're doing at home as well, and the same goals for kids. If you see officers treat kids like this in the street, how do you think they're treating their own kids at home? I don't know, but

it's worth an investigation now. Of course, Mike Mazzini, who was the president of the Rochester Police Union, he defended the officer's actions. Let's listen. The head of the Rochester Police union defended the officers responding to that call, union president Mike Mazzio, saying those criticizing the handling of that incident have never been in that position. He also added that it's easier for the city to blame the officers

than come up with solutions. Mazzio also said that every situation is different, and he feels the police responding that day did everything by the book. You know, when you read the studies of forty percent of police officers families experiencing domestic violence, it gives three reasons why this is.

I'm not going to read all three, but the third really stands out because it says, and I quote, the officer who is abusing them knows how to manipulate the system to avoid penalty and our shift blame to the victim.

This is how they do it. When you have guys like the mic guy, you know, who's the head of the police union making excuses for these cops pissed boor behavior and saying that they did everything by the book, he's absolutely wrong, okay, and they need to burn whatever book it is that's telling them that this is how they should move. Okay. He's actually and he's also wrong when he says none of us have been in that situation. Plenty of us have children, young nine year old kids.

A lot of folks out they have children who are special needs, a lot of folks have children who deal with mental health issues. There are mental healthcare workers who deal with kids like this all the time. Ask those folks how many times they've had to put the kid in handcuffs and pepper spray them to restrain them? Just ask them. I would like for you to survey those people I just mentioned and asked them how many times if they had to handcuff for nine year old and

pepper spray them, okay, to restrain them. See, it's the lack of compassion and empathy for me. And I felt so bad for that young girl listening to her scream out for her father, because I would never want to be a father in that situation, Because what if her father would have showed up in that moment and chose violence, He would have been absolutely justified to do so, but

then he would have been killed. If you did that to a nine year old girl, then we know what you would do to her father who showed up, saw what you was doing to her, and then defended her. I don't see how anyone can make excuses for this. I don't see how anyone can justify this. The girl was nine, and it was five officers, five big grown police officers, and this nine year old girl and y'all couldn't restrain her without handcuffs in pepper spray? How was

that protecting and serving? Let me tell you something, man, whatever y'all doing is not working. All right. That book that the head of the police union was talking about, saying that they did everything by it, throw it out, all right. People get more offended by the slogan defunding the police than they do that. Actions like this that make folks say, see, this is why the police need to be defunded. If this is what taxpayer dollars are

paying for, then taxpayers should demand a refund and better service. Okay, I don't have any right ideas. I have no solutions whatsoever. I'm just shining a light on the problem. Okay, I'm shining a light on this so we can constantly have examples on what exactly needs to be changed. I just honestly don't know how to change it. Please let Chelsea Handler give the Rochester Police Department the biggest he ha hee haw hee haw. That is way too much, Dan

Manne is goodness gracious? All right, Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Now when we come back applies did he say this audio? Did he just writing on Instagram or Twitter.

Yeah, I mean listen, it's nuance to apply said right like it's actually a couple of things going on in that tweet. Number one. Yes, you should support a black business just because they're black. If somebody tells me something is black owned, yes, I will shop with that person just because they are

black and for no other reason. And there is nothing wrong with that, all right. And there's nothing wrong with a business owner, a black business owner, expecting black people to support them just because they are black, because usually the black business owner is building something that they believe black people will appreciate. So the whole for us by us concept, that's the real thing. So yes, I support just because it's black, but I won't return if the

product sucks. At the end of the day, Okay, the product has to be good, so the blackness gets me there, the good product keeps me And as far as price point, I'll spend a little more with the black owned business if the product is good. If the product is good, I'll send I'll spend more with the black owned business regard and custom and customer service has to be on point too, like you you know, I think that's what gets me going to a lot of different places over

and over again. They have amazing customer service. So I think that's something that we always have to pay attention to. Also, absolutely, even with you know, with the real estate business in the stocks, I always try to to to somebody that looks like me because I feel like they understand me. So if it's for me getting Alan, I go to brother first to see what he can do. If it goes to my attorney, I'll go to Sabine first. Like there's different attorneys in different place, I try to go

with my own first. That's that's my main. But like Charlotmie said, if the business is bad, I won't return. But let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? This is star Hey good owning. Now we're asking shopping with black businesses? Do you shop with black business regardless

of anything, let's talk about it. No, No, I am a black business owner, um, and I absolutely don't think that every person black or white should even be a business owner because not everybody knows how to starty with customers. And I just dealt with this at my house with a black contractor, and he has completely put me off from black contractors, Like next time, well should what should it be? Black contractors are just bad contractors because contractors

are shady. People regard it cons that's the that's the whole word. My dad, My daddy's a contractor. But these contractors, I'm dealing with contractors. Now, boy, you got to watch them, because you were just telling me the story the other day how he tried to charge you a triple Yes, they will believe you drive you let them. It's crazy. He tried. My contractor sent me an invoice before she was even done with the work, like we didn't do

a walk. That's that's contract, isn't And I tell everybody that all the time, contractors will use your money to finish somebody else's job and didn't have to get some more money to finish your job. That is contractors. And on the side, note, Mama, I don't know what you're doing, but if you can buy all the materials yourself, you know, I mean that way, all he has to do is just install it and you're paying him an hourly rate.

But if you can buy all the stuff yourself, by the flooring, by the sheep rock, the nails, the studs, bye, your don't get worry about it a couple of weeks ago because you've already done. But but and the work with shotting, so damn it, man, But don't let me don't. Yeah, and don't let it turn you off from black contractors that you just got to find the right contract. Yeah, I had a lot of issues real quick. Um, completely

off topic, Charlotta Magne. I just want to thank you for your your your books, um black privilege, um, because there was a that was the reason why I actually started my business. You had a m when you were talking about how you were working for free at first, and sometimes you have to um go out and put your foot out there and do things if you're trying to get to a certain place. And it kind of just pushed me forward and started my event certain business.

So I just wanted that's dope, salut through you, queen. I'm happy I could inspire you in some way. That's dope. Do you want to name your business too? Some people could let you. I'm in I reme in Virginia and as service at Hampton Road Area is twenty ten events and designed by a star on Facebook, Instagram and twenty

We want to read the tweet one more time. Me. Yes. He was talking about black business owners, and he said, dear black business owners, stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shop with you just because you black.

All right, well, what are your thoughts on that supporting black businesses? Call us up as to breakfast club. Good morning, call me and your opinions to the Breakfast Club tops come one morning. Everybody is d d j Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomne, the guy.

We all the breakfast love. Now if you just join us, we're talking about a tweet that applies put out about supporting black businesses. Now it says, dear black business owners, stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shot with you just because you are black. Make me want to spend money with you cause you've got a good product, good customer service, and a good price point. Because if that's bad, I don't want it no matter what your color is. So we're asking eight hundred five

eight five one oh five one for your thoughts. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this hiast me for Orlando. Hey, good morning. We're talking about supporting black businesses. What are your thoughts? Okay, so my thoughts are yes, continuing on certain products, I will look initially to support black business I have a lot of friends of mine

that are local black business owners. But what I think a lot of black business owners don't understand is that you have a lot of other people, also brown people, were also people of other ethnicities, doing and sunning the same thing. You have to find out what it's going to separate you from that. And sometimes it's going to be your price point, maybe it's gonna be your customer service,

Maybe it's going to be the product itself. But a lot of black business owners don't take the initiatives to really understand what it is to really own a business. Don't just want to pop up one day and say, hey, I'm telling this, not really understanding what it is to run them, to actually have a good black owned business and really do what it's supposed to do for yourself in your community. So I will support it back business, but a lot of black businesses make it very very hard.

But you also got to understand that a lot of business, especially black businesses, this is first generation, so they're figuring it out as they go. You know, a lot of these other businesses, they've had family members that own businesses, that own all types of firms, that created companies before. A lot of the stuff that we even even myself, even buying a house like this was really my parents were the first ones in their family to you know, in the family to buy a house. But they couldn't

really teach me because they didn't know. So I had to figure it out on my own. I had to take those bumps and bruises. My kids will know because I'm able to teach them, you know. But the way, yes, by the way, y'all, y'all treat black owned businesses differently than y'all treat others. Y'all don't get black owned businesses no grace at all. Absolutely, we are all and if we are our own worst enemy sometimes so on both

ends we have to support but the black businesses. And it ended with you, being first generation, you took those bumps and bruises. But along the way, I'm sure you you you weren't treating yours the people that you were selling the houses to. You're had really good communicative skill. You want, you know, trying to um both people over the head with prices and things of that nature. Yes, we're in the business for profit, but that shouldn't be

your gold. Sometimes that is the only goal that and this is it's always a site parian from my But that was the reason why I got into doing a seminar business. I will always always support a black business before I initially support a white absolutely right, absolutely, absolutely, thank you, mama. That was the reason why I got

into seminars. And most people don't know that I got into seminars because there was people that looked like me charging people ten thousand dollars and seven thousand dollars to teach them how to purchase a home in the flip and that earth the iss out of me because I'm like, if you have that much money, don't give it to him. I'd rather use that money and invest in a home. So that's that's the only reason why we started this something.

I was like, this, that's that's highway robbery. That's robbery with no mask. Like, no, you don't do that to your own people because they see you successful, and people want to get success, so they using their their savings

to try to do that. And that's the reason. That's the only reason why we did seminars and try and the reason why I try to help so many people getting the homes that was that's I want to see more of my own living in homes and not renting and owning their own home and passing homes down to their kids and teaching their kids how to homeownership and investments. That's the reason why I'm so hard, so hard on it. I agree with you, what's the moral of the story.

The moral story is you should support a black owned business, just black owners should expect black customers to support them. But the product has to be good to keep us coming back correct. And if it's a brand new business, sometimes you gotta give it a shot because I've been places where the first time I went, you know, there's sometimes some kinks you have to get rid of and iron out and then things get better. So sometimes if it's brand new, it just opened this week, give it

a little bit of time. And I don't know about that. I'm gonna give you one shit, one shot. Only if the food is discussing the bad I ain't going back. If the rest around that, I've been to the when they first opened and then it's so much better now. Like maybe it's just sometimes things don't work right away. Yeah, you right, all right, Well, yeah, we got we gotta we gotta give each other grace. Yeah, I definitely gotta give each other grace. You're right, all right. Well, we

got rumors up next, what we're talking about. Yes, Ti has responded to these sexual assault allegations. He put an instagram PSA out. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a lock this to break this club. Good morning, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let me say a happy birthday to my wife. Today is my wife's birthday, February first, so I just brought just brought us some breakfast bacon. She likes three eggs over easy at croissant, and then a sausage. That's my sausage by the way.

Whoap Happy born day? Gid drop on a clue bomb for Gill. Yeah, we can't do anything today. But we can't do anything because we're in a pandemic. Really, but it's snow and its Nasty's a state of emergency here, so we ain't going anywhere, so we're just gonna make snow as the fun things in the house. Yeah, we did that all last night. But when you got five kids running around, it's kind of hard to do fun things. So we're just gonna be outside. But anyway, fun is

not all just sexual envy. Okay, Yeah, I didn't say anything about sex. What's wrong with you? Gee? That was christ You are disgusting. I have five kids, guys, Come on, crow up, let's get to the room as let's talk till the team. This is the Rumor Report with Angela

Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well TI has taken some time to respond to these sexual assault allegations, and these are from their former friends Sabrina Peterson there's multiple women according to her, that alleged that they were drugged and

assaulted by the couple at different times. Now. She also says that Ti pulled a gun out on her during a prior altercation, and Ti explains why he hasn't said much yet, even though there's all these rumors going around, and Sabrina have been posting statements from different people, and it turns out, looking at some blogs, some random people were just sending in some statements to see if she would post them. So none of what she posted was vetted out and confirmed in any way. So Ti says,

this is the motive behind the allegations. If a person does not have any right to criminally or civili have you in court, the best thing they could do it get you for a defamation. That's the strategy, that's the intentions. Say a whole bunch of false stuff about you that get people to believe and make them come out and say their liar. There, liar, they're a liar. And then they can say, see they call me a liar, it's defamation.

Then they drag you in court, get you under oath and all that, because unfortunately, right now it doesn't matter as much what they can prove you did, it matters what you could prove you didn't. Right. Yeah, Well, he goes on to talk about believing all women. This is what he said, women who have been victomized deserved to be heard. Black women in particular should be supported, protected, defended,

and uplifted. However, evil has no gender. Now what we're not gonna do and open up the door to my bedroom for everybody to come in and chime in and make their opinions about what we do and don't do it, should it, shouldn't do. But I will say then, whatever we ever have done, it's been done with consensualdus who into what we into and like what we like. Yeah,

I don't even really understand how this became headlines. If I get on social media and I say, send me stories on such and such individual, do you realize how many of these digital d heads will send you stories just to get reposted. People get off on seeing things they created or came up with go viral. So how do we know any of those stories were real? They all could have been completely fabricated. But you see certain sites just posting it because they don't care. They just

want the traffic. Also, notice that certain sites didn't even report on the story until TI replied to it denying the allegations, because up until that point it's not a story. Certain out let's have to vet these things before they post them. They can't just repost anything because now they are liable, and I want everybody to have that same level of journalistic integrity. Well and a lot of these sites though, aren't real news sites. They're just there to

report on gossip. So that's the defamation of his character. Yeah, I mean he could have had deals, He could that had movies, He was trying to do endorsements, and they all shut it down because of these fake stories. And now he has to go back and prove that these stories are fake, which is foul. And now tis denying the allegations. Well, here's what he's SAI denying. We never forced nobody. We never drug nobody against their We are ween of a hell, nobody against their will. We never

trafficked anything sexually traffic anything. I ain't ever break nobody. Also, I'm gonna tell you what was factual. There have been fake stories put up their blog sites, anonymously sent to this person. And what this does is it dismantles the mechanism that women have created for themselves. You can't weaponize something with baseless claims. These are not stories of actual events, and I have proof of that. Yeah, nobody cares about the truth and the lives more entertaining, and the truth

is never as lot as the lie. Because I saw some sites reporting on how you know, I guess it was kids are online trolls sending out sending sending out these stories because they know they would be reposted, and they were laughing about it. But I didn't see any real major outlets reporting that. All right, well that is Ta's response to all of the drama. And I just want to get one more shout out to bridgeton. That

is Netflix's biggest show. Okay, and I told y'all this show is amazing, and but you watched it, Charlotmagne, you still haven't watched it. You gotta watch it. I haven't watch it yet. Yeah, it's pretty good on it. It seems like all my my wife's friends they have chats, they talk about it. They talk about the one scene where the dude was looking to spoon. Uh, it's a it's a it's a it's a show that the sexual scenes are very passionate, and the show was passionate. A

lot of people seem to love it. My wife is happy that it's coming back another season, so and shout out to Cardie B also, And we're not going to have a chance to play this audio, but she did say she has an announcement that she's making today. Is it gonna be new music. Let's see what it is. But yes, we'll be looking forward to that announcement. And congrats to Kelly Rowland. She gave birth to a second son,
