Mad delay? I don't feel a delay on my end. I don't. Yeah, I don't hear delay at all. Maybe it's just yeah, I think I was hesitating a little bit because I'm at the house and I don't want to yell too loud, and you know, even though I'm in the basement. I don't know, it might resonate through the house. I'm not sure. Yeah, with everybody in the crib today, I'm sure I think that people know this is a test. You know, coronavirus has us all in the same boat. We're all unemployed and on house arrest.

And being that we're on the house arrest right now, we're broadcasting from home various individual homes. Yes, I'm broadcasting from my crib in my office right now. So I'm sure with me screaming and yelling, I'm sure I woke up that the whole house. But what we got a daddy voice on? You got your daddy the kids to sleep voice on? Right now? I do? I do because I really don't want well, two kids are grown adults, but three of them I don't want in here until

You can you can perform properly? Yes, Charlomagne around me? Yes, I can yell and scream. Yeah, you can yell and scream. Charlemagne and I can't well. Andrew Yang will be joining us this morning. Let me tell you something. Andrew Yang is a former presidential candidate.

He's now seeing a commentator, and um, Andrew Yang is announcing something really big today. You know, it's a lot of problems going on, but not too many people have solutions. Andrew Yang, I think, is presenting a solution to some of the problems that are going on right now due to this goddamn coronavirus. A matter of fact, let me

not urs now. I remember him saying that his phone was ringing off the hook because everybody's talking about these stimulus packages and giving out checks and that was the universal in basic income he was talking about. Yeah, they stole style. I mean he took it from Martin Luther King Junior. And then you know now that now they're taking his style to to stimulate the economy. So yeah,

he's got a lot to talk about this morning. All right, righting him next, WHOA, all right, that's not crazy anybody but me. Oh my goodness, he's an autobid. You got the auto Just relax, you sound like, all right, we are gonna since we're talking about Andrew Yang, let's talk about the coronavirus stimulus bill that they have unveiled. Senate Republicans haven't builed this massive stimulus bill, and they're saying

this could actually help with the economy. All right, all right, listen, it's the World's most dangerous morning show on a fire We are broadcaster from home and hey got his auto truth. But I think we'll be okay. It's the World's most Dangerous morning Yes, Charlomagne sound crazy to me now, Charlomagne sounds crazy. Goodness ration, Yes, you sound like future Charlotte Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all to breakfast club. Let's get in some front page news.

All right, you ready page news, Yep, let's go. Senate Republicans haven't billed a stimulus bill that's going to give twelve hundred dollars tax rebates. But that's for people who earned seventy five thousand dollars or less last year. Now, as your salary goes up, the rebate gradually decreases, and by the time you get to ninety nine thousand dollars, you get nothing. So if you made ninety nine thousand dollars or more or last year, you won't get any

of this twelve hundred dollars check. But if you are a lower income person, they said that you'll get less as well a minimum rebate of six hundred dollars if your income was at least twenty five hundred dollars. They also proposed a five hundred dollars per child rebate. Okay, check to check that. Don't mean you're not living. Check to check this because you make ninety thousand dollars a year, because you still got taxes. This is what forty forty

five thousand dollars a year you're making. I mean, I guess it's a start, but you got ninety days. I geah, you know, I guess there's prioritizing certain people. All right now California, everybody except California. The state has ordered they are nearly forty million residents to stay home. The California Governor, Gavin Newsom is the first statewide mandatory restriction that has been issued in the United States. So far in California, nineteen people have died and more than nine hundred people

have tested positive for coronavirus. So the restrictions are in place until further Notice, now, what does this a mean? While under this order, such things like going to the gas station, pharmacies, grocery stores, pharmas markets, food banks, convenience stores, restaurants that deliver, they are all going to remain open. So will the bank, so will local government offices that

provide services, and law enforcement agencies. But things that they consider non essential, like dying in restaurants, bars, gyms, convention centers, things like that are going to be shut down. Also in LA, two Lakers players have tested positive for coronavirus as well, so the Celtics have also said one of their players tested positive for coronavirus. Yeah, it's really um shut it down in the Philadelphia seventy six ers, making

a whole government mandate across all fifty states. Let's just go ahead and do this so we can get it over with America. Stop being spoiled, okay, and thinking that you're gonna be under martial law, and let's actually do something to flatten this goddamn curb. You know, if Donald Trump wasn't president, if it was a president that people actually trusted, nobody would have a problem with a government mandate, a lockdown for two weeks. But being that he's a

freaking a future dictator tyrant. Nobody wants to be under, you know, a government mandate a lockdown from him because it feels like martial law. Yeah, all right, now. CNN had a town hall yesterday, if you guys had a chance to watch that, and amongst the things, they had

a lot of experts on their doctors. They had doctor Anthony Fauci, who's the director of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and he said, there's a good chance that you can't become reinfected once you've had coronavirus. So she said, I've been dealing with viruses my entire professional life, and the viruses in which you get infected and you get a complete response, where you clear the virus, you can be protected. The duration of the protection varies.

It might be a lifetime. If you get infected with me zose, it's highly likely that you are protected for life from re exposure. Highly likely, maybe a bit less depending on how long you live. Other viruses we have less experience with, but he said, from his experience dealing with these viruses is a good chance you can't get reinfected once you do have it all right? Also traveling, No, you cannot, cannot, cannot, OK. I was like, what are you talking about? Yeah, that's great, you can us. Domestic

air travel also sees a virtual shutdown. There's more restrictions that are being discussed. So TSA officers are also testing positive for coronavirus. Is a public fair and so there is less of a demand for air travel naturally right now. And they said there might be a domestic travel band at some point coming soon. That's under consideration right now

by the Trump administration. And they're talking about grounding many or all domestic flights, and that hasn't happened yet, but as you know, internationally, a lot of those flights have been grounded as well. Yeah, where are y'all going? Anywhere? Updates? Listen? Shout out to Laura who actually she's in Atlanta. She flew to New Jersey to get her hair done and flew back. That's what I'm talking about. That's exactly what if thirty dollars, Yeah, get some fresh bundles. They put

all to get some fresh bundles. Your head costs more than your plane ticket, she tell us down somewhere, and I love what New York is doing when they shut down New Mortgage is not allowing people to pay mortgages in three months. New York Governor. He said that yesterday, correctly, Yes, he said that, um, they are going to get and Bank of America is doing the same as well. If you have a mortgage with Bank of America, then you

will have a break for now. I think I think it's rank that all mortgage companies should do this until week. Until week, get out of this. People need help. Like people are not working, people are are suffering, they're scared. I gotta call yesterday from an employee that was scared and mad. Unemployment line wasn't answering the phone. The website was shut down. You gotta help people shut down for three months. You gotta help people. Man, all right, get it.

So I was calling me because I realized that there was one group of a population of children that weren't being talked about for the coronavirus, and that was kids and thought to care and how their lives are changing so drastically because of it, and I just wanted everybody to just take

a minute to think. You know, I've seen my friends complaining about their kids be at home, driving them crazy. But these kids, they're taking from their families and they're put with complete strangers. And now they can't even do visits because all the service providers are canceled. The case workers are not doing visiness at all this month. So for the next thirty days, who knows what's gonna happen to them. And it's just because these are these are my kids, you know, and I'm in Jersey and I

just don't see anybody talking about it. So I just want everybody to know, just to be grateful because these kids are with strangers and they can't visit their families. On top of that, they can't see their friends because school is closed. So just everyone be grateful and just keep these kids in your prayers because they need it. I like, I like praying, but you know, faithfoot out faithfood out works is dead. So what what can we do? What can we do for these kids? If anything jop alright,

don't happen. D you hang up on it? Oh, get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need to vent, you can hit us up right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. This is the Ruble Report with Angela Years Club. Yes. So, actor Daniel J. Camerville yesterday that he has tested positive for coronavirus, and he went on Instagram and talked about just how he found out that he had it, but his symptoms were where he got it.

He is from Loss, He's from the good Doctor. He's from Hawaii. Five oh. I actually saw him in the airport, like last month when I was going from LA back to New York work as well. Um and that New York. Did you have contact with him? You longld No, but you know what. We were in the sky club and I only know that because my makeup artist sounded. Adan was so excited. She was like, oh my god, Daniel Dick Kim is in here. When we LECP, No, I didn't. It was an ACP Image Awards, so whenever that was.

But I was like, forty five days ago. Yeah, it doesn't matter. You watching. So we're all isolated from each other right now. So anyway, he did say to test a positive. Here's what else he said. I wanted to let you know that yesterday I tested positive for COVID nineteen. I was asymptomatic during all of this time. As the flight was close to landing, I started noticing some scratchiness in my throat. I called my family doctor in Hawaii

and he told me to monitor my symptoms. But later that night I started feeling tightness in my chest, body aches, and my temperature started to rise. So he then told me to get tested and wanted to bring attention to the prejudice and violence against Asian people right now, and why he thinks that it's really harmful for political leaders to try to rename coronavirus the Chinese virus. Here's what he said. Please stop the prejudice and senseless violence against

Asian people. Randomly beating elderly, sometimes homeless Asian Americans is cowardly, how heartbreaking, and it's inexcusable. Yes I'm Asian, and yes I have coronavirus, but I did not get it from China. I got it in America, in New York City. And despite what certain political leaders want to call it, I don't consider the place where it's from as important as the people who are sick and dying. If I did,

I would call this thing the New York virus. I wonder if some Asian people who test positive are keeping at himself just because of the negative stigma I guess attached to Asians in the coronavirus right now. I hope not, because there's everybody catching it now. It doesn't matter who you are, what what background you have, it's it's everybody's catching it. I said. They said, like between forty to seventy people are going to end up getting it. That's

a lot just forty to seventy. Yea seventy million meanty to seventy percent of people. Oh okay, yeah, you just said forty to seventy. I'm like, that'd be great. Yeah, now you didn't say at first first. All right, Tom Hanks in the meantime is doing not great but still okay while he's recovering from coronavirus. Now. His sister told The Daily Mail, I've communicated with my brother. He's not great still okay, and my shock, no, he's an actor, not a god. But medical care in Australia is good.

So fortunately for him, he's you know, I guess it's still a little under the weather, but doing a lot better. Now. I need to know what not great means, though, don't you want to know what not great means. He's probably still a little bit sick, just like Daniel da Kim is saying he's ring. He didn't even actually ever have to go to the hospital or anything. So for Daniel Dick Kim, he's you know, people are still feeling a

little bit sick, like if you have the flu. It would help, yeah, it would help for people to tell their stories because then people will know when they're just dealing with a cold or the flu or you know what, this really might be corona, you know, because I'm tired of taking my temperature every four hours, being scared, not knowing what to expect, not knowing what I'm looking for. Like, yeah, you just like that, the mama to your butt. You just like that, the mama to your butt. I know

what that is. Well, some people have no symptoms at all, So it's just it's really different for everybody, right, Some people are asymptomatic, some people get extremely sick. Some people just get a little bit sick. So I don't think there's a one size fits all. Some people have a

scratchy throat. I did read they said that if you have some like diarrhea and problems with your stomach and digestion, for some people, that's like the first symptom that something I need to know that I need that information all right now. Miley Cyrus and Demi Levada are among the people who have been on Insta Graham Live. There has been a lot of chats going on and they they

talked about their own relationship with each other. They've had an aunt and a friendship and Miley Cyrus opened up about the twenty thirteen MTV Video Music Awards and how she struggled after that because of the memes that went viral about her and how she couldn't even wear a

bikini anymore. I listen to this two or three years where I wouldn't wear short I stopped wearing like skirts on stage all this ship because after the VMAs and I had all my cute little new body suit, everyone started comparing me to a turkey and making it putting

a turkey in my outfit. So then I won't because I was like just like so skinny and so pasty, and they like kept putting me next to this turkey, and I was feeling so about myself that I did not wear a bikini for like two years, and no one thought that that would have ever made me feel some type of way. That's what we were talking about. Memes can be so much fun, but they can also just be so hurtful. Okay, yeah, that has to be hard, man, when people are just making fun of your body and

what you look like, and then it's just embarrassed. That's the era we live in, though, Like, like, that's the era we live in. Unless you've never shared a meme of a person you're guilty like like like, I don't care what the meme is. Even if it's a meme that you think is innocent, it's somebody out there getting

clowned about it. Right. Well, Miley Cyrus and Demi Levado have known each other since they were fourteen years old when they were Disney starlets, and they said that, uh, there was it looks like they was a little bit of flirtation going on during this Instagram live and maybe at some point they hooked up. Listened to this. We connected then because we just saw something each other, maybe their spirituality or maybe it was I don't know, but um or maybe we were just gay. I hate to

tell your next question. Yeah, it sound like they hooked up. No, they're really gay. They're just being gay because they're born and quarantined before I think something that happened in the past. You know, they just at Oh you know, and listen, people, protect yourself against that because you'll be sitting in the house board the next thing you know, you start calling x Is and reminiscent. That's what that sounded like to me. Just now. All right, Well, I'm Angela yee, and that

is your room of reports. All right, thank you, miss Ye. Now when we come back Front Page News, what we're talking about, Well, we are going to talk about these breaks on mortgage payments and we'll give you some more updates on what's happening with coronavirus, the stimulus package. What can you expect? You know, there's all these store closings. People are out of work right now, people are getting laid off. So what are we gonna do moving forward?

We'll tell you what some things that have been discussed are. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep the lock. This to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy we all the Breakfast Club, Good morning. Now. We are broadcasting live from home at my crib in my office. Charlomagne's in his basement, and angela Ye is still in Detroit. Yeah. I'm too comfortable

in him. So if I let a couple of curse words fly, you just hit the dump button, Eddie My goodness. All right, well let's get in some Front page news. We start hello, yeah, Well, let's start with this family in New Jersey. Now, four members of this extended family have died within days of one another, and three others are hospitalized. It all started with the death of Rita

Fusco Jackson that happened on Friday. She was the second person in Jerseys confirmed to have died from coronavirus, and then her brother also tested positive for the virus and died on Wednesday. Her brother Carmine Fusco. Hours later, their mother, Grace Fusco, died, she was seventy three years old, and then Vincent Fusco died and really sad situation and three of their other children remain in the hospital. About twenty other relatives are being quarantined in their homes. So here

is what one family member has to say. It's like the second we start to grieve about one the phone rings and there is another person gone, taken from us forever. It's not like it was one by time we got over my first sister, not over. It's settled in our brains. We got the next call. We're just begging for help. We never want to get that call anytime soon ever again.

Because of this, that is. And it's a damn shame too, because I was watching CNN last night and I think They said that that they can't even get a test for the coronavirus the twenty people that are quarantined. But what's the details of the ages? Though? I know the one woman was seventy three? How old was everybody else? I think the kids fifty one? Um, they were in the fifties. I'm not sure. But that's the reason why I got into that argument with my pops. Man, I'm like, yo,

stay home, like I can't see you right now. They like, do you know how bad you would feel if you bring that home? That's why they want everybody just to stay to f home and stay away. Yeah. Yeah, And that's why I want to know the ages, because you know, people you know keep saying that it's you know, just to the first person to gold to people, the first person who pass was fifty five years old. Then the mother who passed was seventy three years old. Yes, and

so it goes on from there. Then the brother passed. Now let's discuss another person who has tested positive for a coronavirus, and that is Sean Payton. And he's the head coach of the New Orleans Saints. So that's the first NFL figure to have a positive coronavirus test that we know of publicly, he said, appreciate the will whiches. I'm feeling better and fortunate to not have any of the respiratory symptoms. Four more days at home has tag beat COVID, and that's what he had to say. The

team retweeted his message as well. He said he started feeling unwell on Sunday, he was tested Monday. He said he's self isolating at home and feeling fatigued, but he doesn't have a fever or a cough. So there's been more than three hundred and eighty cases that have been reported in Louisiana. A majority of those are in New Orleans or in the New Orleans area. Now, we told you about the CNN town hall, so one thing that was discussed was if you do get coronavirus, can you

get it again or will you be immune? Well, here is about what doctor Maria van Kirkhov had to say. The answer is, we don't know yet. What we are looking at and what sciences are looking at is to see an immune response amongst individuals who are infected with this virus. We don't have a robust data on this yet. What could happen is that when someone gets infected, that they develop an immune and antibody response, and that that

could provide some protection going forward. We don't have data to be able to say whether this is possible or not all right now, in California, they've ordered their nearly forty million residents to stay home, and that is to prevent the spread of coronavirus there Governor. Governor Gavin Newsom has been the first person to order a statewide mandatory restriction in the United States. So so far in California, nineteen people have died and more than nine hundred people

have tested positive. They said these restrictions will remain in place until further notice, and they said half the state is projected to be infected by the virus in two months. So that is what he said is straight talk. They just need to do a government mandate all across the whole country and put everybody under those same restrictions. And I feel like if we had a president that people

actually trusted, then people wouldn't mind that. But being at Donald Trump, you know, it comes off as a dictator and a tire and it feels like martial law. And so I think some people are just naturally rebelling, and they wouldn't want to want to listen to him telling us that we got to be on lockdown. But that's necessary. But this is needed right now. This is serious, and I feel like people had issues with how our government was treating this at first, like it wasn't a big

deal and nothing to really worry about. And now it's sound the alarmed time. And we should have done that from the beginning, as we have what was happening in Italy, had what was happening overseas in China, and said okay, we have to make sure that this doesn't happen here. You can even see in Florida people at the beaches, no social sing and they finally and Miami shut down the beaches there. But I don't understand this sense of safety that people are having right now because I sound

like Darth Vader to Charlemagne. I mean, you know, I think it has to do a lot with the parents too, Like I'm thinking about it. Yeah, and I get it. There's a lot of kids out there, and there's a lot of teenagers out there, But I won't allow my daughter to go out like I'm not allowing my eighteen year old in my sixteen year old to leave the house. You know you still sound like dar Veda, Charlemagne. I just reset, Charlomagne, you said, right, well, that is your

sayings to reset. That is your front page news. I'm Angela, all right, thank you, miss ye. Now, when we come back, if you don't know yet, we are broadcasting live from our home, so if it's if this is the first day, so there's gonna be a little technical difficulties. So that's why we sound like Darth Vader at time, and sometimes we sound like future. But we're getting it together. But when we come back, we're gonna kick it with Andrew Yang.

Andrew Yang will be kicking it with us, so we'll talk to him when we come back, So don't move. Get your ass up. Is still the same thing. It's the Breakfast Local Morning, the Breakfast Club back. You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show Morning. Everybody's DJ Envy Angela, Yee, Chalamagne, the gad We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the build it out only guests this week this week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we had to make an exception, so you know it

must be very important. We have Andrew Eyang you could see CNN commentator Andrew y good morning. Thanks for having me, guys, I didn't know it was the only guest, Like, I feel very special. Thank you. Yeah, you the only guest to actually come in. So have you have special Yeah? I know we got something special to talk about. But have you experienced any bigotry because of the coronavirus or

the China virus? Is a president? The president calls it, not directly, but you know, I mean, as an Asian American, like you can't help but feel bad for the fact that your community is getting called out in that way. I mean, it's pretty dark. What did you think when when he called it the kind of virus in him saying the reason I called it that is because China

was saying that it was started from American soldiers. I think it's the same old bullet distraction employee that Trump uses whenever things are going wrong for him, and this is definitely very much going wrong for him, given that his administration dropped the ball so egregiously on this for weeks and you can't get those six weeks back. Yeah, I was shocked that he actually told the truth this week and say, look, this is a pandemic. You know, it's like you ignore it and then you swink the

other extreme. You know, I wouldn't be surprised if he then change his tone again and again because he can't keep the same tone for more than two or three days at a time. Now, if you are president during the time, would you have shut the country down early? What would you do if you are president right now? Well, the first thing is you try and suppressed and contain the virus. When there are a limited number of cases

where you could actually do what's called tracing people. Where you have cases, you try and monitor who they came into contact with. Missing that window was crucial because at this point it's almost impossible to do any kind of trace. You have so many people that have been in contact with other people that have been tested positive. So at this point now we're in mitigation mode, and mitigation mode

is incredibly painful for us. All where you're shutting down the economy, you're not allowing people to get together in groups of well not allowing but it's like you know, discouraging groups of or ten plus for two months. And the reason I'm here today is because I understand what that means in terms of people's day to day lives, ability to feed yourself, because if you look around here in New York and around the country, think about the

industries that have been affected. It's not just people who works in restaurants and bars, and that's a lot of people. That's not just cooks and waite staff and managers, parking attendants. But then you look at all of the people that rely upon, frankly, going out at actually doing their job every day. So that's personal trainers, nail salons, security guards, usher every sporting events canceled. Do you think about that

in terms of the economic loss? And so to me, the decision to shut down the economy is in some ways as dangerous as the virus itself, because if you have millions of Americans sent home and their money is going to dry up pretty quick. You know, you're looking around saying, am I going to be able to feed myself? Like? Can I pay my rent? Are we paying rent now? Because you know there are people who've been sent home in this way. To me, that's a massive danger a potential.

So we're already in a recession like right now, and the question is how deep and dark, is it going to get and can it become a depression? Manuchin projected that if we didn't do anything big, we'd wind up with twenty percent unemployment, which is great Depression era level

rates of unemployment. So you have the virus and then you have all the economic havoc and devastation and deprivation being caused by the clampdown in response to the virus and system Yeah, and overwhelming the healthcare system because right now, I don't know about you guys, but like, uh, if I got sick right now, I mean, you try and get tested. But how confident would you be that you'd get a test in the right time? For me, it's

almost impossible unless you are you know. But we have a certain level celebrity, so I'm sure we could get one. It seems like all the celebrities and athletes are getting them. Yeah, I guess I'd pick up my celebrity hotline. But so the healthcare system is being overwhelmed by both real cases showing up but also everyone being like, hey, you know, I don't feel so good. Can I get a test? Uh? And what does that mean? The big thing I'm concerned about right now in addition to the obvious is that

so my kids schools shut down. I mean everyone's schools have shut down at this too. Yeah, And so the question is what would be the signal that would allow the schools to reopen. And so in order to have that signal, you would need to have some kind of data on the decline in the infection rate or a number of places. But right now, because our testing is so inadequate, we don't even know what that rate is.

We don't know what the data is. And if you look at the number of cases that are going to be reported, it's going to be going up for quite some time. So that, to me is the biggest danger is that we wind up in this mitigation stage, and we're essentially in this mitigation stage indefinitely because there's never a catalyst to say, all right, it's gotten better. So

you asked what I would do. The big thing I would do for the American people right now is I would say, look, here's where we are, here are the numbers we have, here's a dashboard, and if we do a great job flattening the curve, self quarantining, decreasing the infection rate, then this is the goal. At this time frame, and if we can keep it under this level, then our healthcare system's capacity will grow to be able to handle this, and then we can look at potentially reopening

things at this point. So if we do a great job, and I want you all to do a great job, but right now we're all in the dark. We don't know what we're shooting for. We don't know what the goals are, we don't know what success looks like. And so we're all at home with our kids trying to

figure out what's next. American citizens have to be willing to give up a little bit of civil liberties in order to like really self quarantine though, right like the government is gonna have to say, look, everybody has to stay home. Hey, what do you think about that? You know, San Francisco has done it. Do you think that we should do it? And China did it? Right, didn't trying to have one hundred percent shut down. China shut it

down pretty thoroughly. Like you know, it's like that you look at what they've done, and it is true, we've have very different societies, you know, Like I came in today obviously I'm in the studio with you all, and certainly there was less traffic and foot traffic than normal, but there's still people out and a lot of people are still driving around and everything. What do you think about New York? Do you think we should shut down New York? I think that because people are not gonna

stay home, especially New York is New York. Is it not going? They gotta make it government park? Like, do you think we should just shut it down? I think that it's tough because there are a lot of things that people are going to rely on. Let's say you quote unquote shut it down and I'm at home, then what am I gonna do? I'm gonna go out to

the bodega and try and like get some groceries or exactly. So, then you have to look around and say, there are all of these things that people will rely upon, even if they're at home, even if they're just sitting there saying, you know what, I'm gonna order some delivery, like who

the heck is the delivery person? You know, So then you'd have to at least make some calls as to say, well, people that are vital to the continuing functioning of the infrastructure we rely upon, like sanitation, Obviously they need to go out police firefighters. So I think that a total lockdown would be a bit much at this stage, but certainly if it's optional again you can stay at home, then you should. All right, We got more with Andrew Yang when we come back. Don't Move is to Breakfast Club.

Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Chalomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking with Andrew Yang. Chalomagne. Let's talk about solutions. You're doing something with Humanity Forward, which I think is dope. What are you? What are you doing? I'm to announce that we're going to give a million dollars away to the working poor in New York City and beyond a whole million dollars, you know, one million. Yeah, because we know

that people are suffering right now. We know that there's a lot of fear, a lot of uncertainty, a lot of need. And you've probably seen the announcements about how the government seems like they're poised to send checks to everybody, but we had taken your staff, taking your Universal Basic income, they're taking that. That's your plane. Yang. Yeah, yeah, there are a lot of Yanggang now over in the DC that it's crisis time, but we can't wait that long

drop on a clue. Momsman Andrew Yang, he's given a million dollars to New York City, just the whole city, all five boroughs. Well, we're focusing on the Bronx, and we have a couple of partners that are going to help us get the money into people's hands directly in a way would be most effective. So we're working with an organization called Neighborhood Trust that is community based financial planning nonprofit that actually helps people figure out how to

get money and save it. And so it's perfect because we're going to work with them to get money into the bank accounts of the working poor in the Bronx, and then they actually are going to give like a complimentary fifteen minute like hey, you know what you're gonna do with this money kind of style. But we're also going to be donating money to tipped workers wait staff who've lost their jobs. And then we're just going to be giving money away to the general public on our

website Move Humanity Forward dot com. Wow that if you just come, we're gonna give two hundred fifty to five hundred dollars micro grants to people who just come and tell us why they need the money. We can't do everyone, obviously, but we're gonna do all week can, and if we get enough money, we can do more. What's the website again, the websites move Humanity Forward dot com. This is a

million dollars out of your pocket. It's a million dollars that was donated to the nonprofit I started maybe two weeks ago. And so you know, if you get money, this is how we should use it. We gotta donate. Bro. Yeah, absolutely, I know things are tight because we are at a recession. So I gotta talk to my financial advice to say how much I can't. I gotta talk to my wife. How about that? I talked to my wife to her too, But I think we definitely gonna donate to this call.

This is a great cause. Oh thank you guys. And what I can tell you is one hundred percent of every dollar you donate is going to go towards just directly into some someone's hands who needs it. So five thousand dollars can go a long way to Oh yeah, man, five thousand dollars could be you know, twenty people a getting two hundred and fifty bucks, and then you'll probably see those stories posted on social media. We'll freaking yeah, we'll actually just say it's like, look like this could

be from Charlemagne. I'm in for that. I mean, I got you five. I mean I got you five grand Yang. I like this. All right, to talk to my wife, but I might match. I gotta talk to my wife first, but I might match you. I'm hearing that you're considering running from me of New York, Andrew any any any truth to that. Well, you know, I'd love to help in any way I can, and certainly, if I can help the people in New York, I'm gonna do everything

I can. My campaigns issues were around national issues, frankly, but we're looking at the mayor race and certainly wouldn't rule it out. I like that for you. I like Andrew Yang mayor of New York. Oh thanks, man, I like that. Yeah. There have been a lot of people that have reached out saying if you run, I'm in, I'm in. I'm in, and you know, it's it's very gratifying. We'll definitely look at it. So you think you think

that's a possibility, it's a possibility for sure. I mean, you know that there are other possibilities too, Like, obviously, you know, if the Democrats beat Trump in the fall, there's a good chance that I joined the administration in some form. So there are different things on the table. Had Biden promised you a cabinet position, we've talked, and I mean I'd have a place in the administration. Is

the pretty clear message. You endorse Joe Biden. But I remember you saying you wouldn't endorse a candidate who didn't endorse universal basic income, and Biden never has. Well, what I said was endorsing universal basic income would be a way to get me to come out and support you. But I also said I'm going to support her. Of the nominee is and Michigan. The math was clear that Biden was going to be our nominee. So I thought, look like, we don't have any time to waste in

terms of pulling people together to beat Donald Trump. How do you unify the party though? How do you get Yangang or even Bernie Brows to say, you know what, we will support the establishment because Joe Biden is every bit of the establishment. I think that's why Bernie is such an important figure. Like if Bernie says to his people, Look, job one is beat Trump. Joe's a good man, and

Bernie and Joe are actually friends and friendly. So I think if Bernie comes out really strong and clear to his people and says we have to come together, and if Biden signals that he'll make concessions and adjustments based upon Bernie's priorities and in terms of the democratic platform or the agenda the administration, I think if those two can come together, then the party will unify to a

much higher degree than if people sense that. You know, it's only skin deep, right, correct me if I'm wrong. But isn't what America doing. What America's doing right now by giving out all this money, that socialism. It is not socialism, I'm happy to report. So it's capitalism where income doesn't start at zero. So people think of socialism

as free money. Socialism is not free money. If you look up the definition of socialism in the dictionary, it's when the means of production is appropriated by the government. Putting money into people's hands actually helps markets function better, it helps businesses start. It's actually good for the market economy. It's one reason why I'm so passionate about it is that if we do not take this step of putting money into people's hands, capitalism is not going to work

as well. I mean, it's not working out well now like people see it around. That's why everyone's getting pissed off. So to me, putting money into people's hands is the necessary future of capitalism because markets are not going to function if we don't have money to spend. The Trump administration reached out to you though, right then they reach out to you about universal basic income, but with their whole cash relief thing, they're doing it. Our teams in

touch with their team. We sent over a bunch of studies that show that if you put money into people's hands and makes them happier, healthier, mentally, healthier, more trusting, more productive. So they're looking for any ammo to obviously support the policy that they're clearly going to end up implementing in the next number of days happily. I mean, I just hope that checks get here quickly. But it's still crazy, right, they stole you, so basically everybody's seeing

you were right. He got it from Martin King Jr. Yeah, that's true, but they're basically saying you're right. Do you think it's easier to get things done as an old white man in this country? If you were an old white man, people would have listened to you more. I think it would have been a tough message, regardless of who the messenger was. I'll tell you, guys a story

that you'll appreciate. So I was with a black mayor who supports universal basic income, and then he came to me afterwards and says, like, you can get away was saying, I can never say it's like like the magical Asian man saying we should get everyone money is actually like not a bad look the scheme of things. If I was an old white dude like I probably would have come across as like a socialist or something more so than I do, because people sense that I'm an entrepreneur.

I like progress, I like innovation, and I just think putting money into people's hands is the vital next step to actually build a future. We're excited about it, but Trupe is gonna get it done. But if you when you say it's like, oh he's crazy, that don't never happen. You know, I even said it to you one time, Like people think that the only reason you know you're even in this because you're just promising to give people money and now they're doing that. Yeah, clearly old white

men have an advantage in that department. Well, certainly, if you're in power and it's a crisis, it's a lot easier to send all the checks out then if you're on the outside saying, hey, we should send everyone checks. All right, we got more with Andrew Yang when we come back, don't move. It's to breakfast Club, Go morning. Everybody is j Envy Angela yee. Chalomagne, the guy we all the Breakfast Club, was still kicking it with Andrew Yang.

Chalomagne is then into this coronavirus stuff, you think, and that's one of the problems, one of the big problems, because we know the virus is going to be with us for a while. The question is whether the spread is such that it's actually affect schools and businesses and bars and restaurants. And but the virus is going to be with us until we get a vaccine. So the vaccine, let's call it a year and a half from now. Post vaccine, we should be all right, because if you

vaccinate everyone, then it's under control. So the question is what does the next year and a half look like? And no one obviously thinks that we're going to be in this lockdown mode for that long. But there is a world where we come out and then the virus comes back, and then they say, hey, we need to lock it down again for a particular period of time. Could I think about like a bola and swine flu and bird flu and scars and zica, Like what what

happened to all those? So the big issue here is that those diseases were more deadly, more virulent than the coronavirus that we're dealing with now. And you'd think, okay, well, the coronavirus being less deadly, that's a good thing, and it is a good thing, but it also means it's a lot harder to get rid of because it's just

kind of around, like you can be asymptomatic. So the diseases that actually a more lethal burnout more quickly, and because this thing is less lethal than those diseases, it's likely to linger for quite some time. Why it's so easy to get money at times like this but not for everyday issues like poverty, because like the hood is needed to bail out forever. Yeah, I agree. You know, this is why doctor King was fighting for this in

the sixties. The fact that it went from being something that he was fighting for to essentially off the radar for so many decades, to me is mystifying. It's like, we've needed this the whole time. It actually came close to passing Congress in nineteen seventy one, and that, to me was the moment, Like if we'd passed a version of universal basic income in nineteen seventy one, imagine all of the pointless misery that would have been alleviated from then till now. But I agree with you, it takes

a crisis to get new ideas across the finish line sometime. Yeah, Because I mean, they give you hell, they give Bernie Head, they give a little bit more hell, and they're like, where y'all going to get this money from? But now you're asking for a trillion in Dallas. This is one of the things I said to people around the country. I said, the biggest lie in American life today is

that we don't have the money. Because when the banks needed money, we printed four trillion dollars for them, and no one remembers anyone looking around being like oh do we have that money. It's like when the banking system we just print the money needed four trillion, we gave it to them. Trump tax cut that was one point five trillion that went to big companies, and most of that money went to share buy backs, you know in

the top like one or two percent. And so if we're broke, like if if like families are struggling, then someone looks at them like, well, you know, what can you do? But if you're a giant bank or drug company or a military contract or what have you, they just can't give you money fast enough. So to me, the change we have to make is we have to start treating ourselves and our people better than we're treating the giant companies. Now, anything you regret doing on the

campaign trew. I regret a lot of things, and I'm really proud of a lot of things too, you know. Um, certainly the the whip cream thing seemed completely like innocuous at the time, and then like some people made a big thing out of it. I was like, um, come on, think Carter, you got some phone? What you think? Yeah? Oh yeah, Like what I what I do wrong? Man? The choir robe with the Black Church I just looked

like pandering. Why did you put the choir robe on and sing at the black church if you were there? So what happened was like I was there with the choir, and then the people in the choir wanted selfies with me, so I went in and they were taking selfies, and then one of the people who were singing literally put the robe on me, and then uh, and then they were singing, and then obviously like you know, I'm there, I've got the robe on, so I just sing too,

and then someone uh takes the video of it. Yeah, you couldn't say no that black pressure ain't no joke happened. Sometimes you couldn't say no. I enjoyed it, like I I'd feel terrible if someone thought it was anything other than like me trying to be a part of the community or supportive. So it feel stupid. It actually felt great. I'm glad you stand in bye it because perception is not reality. Because the perception you're like, oh, he looks stupid.

But if you felt good, he felt that's all that matters. Praising alone and what made you want to be a CNN commentator because some people think that was your play. The whole time. He was like, oh, Andrews wanted to get into race, get famous and use this to sell books, and well that's a really weird way to go about it. I'll tell you what. So what happened was I suspended my campaign and then CNN called the next day and it was like, hey, you want to come on and

talk about stuff. And then to me at the concern at the time was that, frankly like the movement was going to lose steam, and I said, well, this is one way I can maintain a degree of public visibility and notoriety and keep pushing the agenda so that you know it said yes, and it was honestly a short term deal, but it looks like I'm might be there a while longer because like it seems like a good fit. Did the child is Gambino and Dave Chappelle endorsements help

you think? Of course? Geez, you know. I mean Dave freaking went and performed shows on my behalf in Iowa and South Carolina. I mean, I was like the greatest thing ever. Yeah, Donna Glover had like a freaking fashion line dedicated to the campaign that was like an awesome both awareness and fundraising tool. I'm in touch with those guys, like I thanked them obviously. After them we suspended. And Dave just texted me two days ago when they came

out with all this give money away stuff. He was like, man, like you know, like you were right, like you know we we pushed him in the right direction. We see in the government bailing out all these different people, they are willing to give the money in case for reparations for Black America. To me, step one is we I mean right now is step One's like they carry the crisis and then get money into people's hands and then

we should turn towards reparations. But I think you need to be a stronger, more integrated society for them to actually realistically move reparations forward. And uh, and so that's job one is try and pull people together. You mean like we need to be more organized about it, not even like it's not even like black people need to be more organized about it. I mean that we need to get our country to a point where it can realistically reckon with our past. And that's not to me,

a Black problem. That's like, that's an American problem, right, So you got to try and get America to that point, and then we should trying to move reparations forward. Now, with with everything going on, how long do you think it it takes to we get semi back to normal. Every indication I've gotten from the government indicates that they're planning on a time frame of um at least two months because the checks that they're looking to send out our early April in mid May, so they're projecting that

this crisis stretches on throughout least Memorial Day. And so that to me is a realistic expectation. If that's the way the federal government and is playing it, let's say after Memorial Dad, only because we don't want everybody thinking you can go out, you know morel Dave's very first of time. Yeah, and obviously, like you know, who knows, Like maybe things will happen in a positive way before then, but that seems like what the government is trying to

prepare us for. Well, thank you for joining us, Andrew Yank Thank you you're giving a million dollars to New York City most Humanity Forward dot com. Let's do it. Let's genuinely move humanity forward. This is a lousy time, but hopefully we can come together and take care of our people. And he's gonna run from May in New York. And he taught us that the only way to get things done in this country is to have old white men pushing. There you go. That's right, So reparation universal

bids again. Come. We need old white men to get behind these things and make it happen. Uh. He said that I didn't know it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's about report Angela Gee on the Breakfast Club. Yes, so, Fadi Wab has responded to a report that was on the Breakfast Club. Now. According to this report, he was ordered to pay his former employee one point one million dollars Seana Morgan, who was a former tour staffer that said that he damaged her reputation and fail to reimburse

her for work related expenses. This story was reported on several different sites like Vibe and boss EP and Hip Hop DX. Well. He had this to say about the report heard on the radio that I was being involved this I got to do with my old company and me. We'll let y'all know that I don't got nothing to do with me. I hope y'all stopped using my name. Stop saying my name feel me like we already said the outsist me and her personally, Um, that million dollars you got to do with her and art you have

the company. I'm no longer RF, so I could stop putting my name with that. Man, When the hell do we talk about that? I missed that store that was yesterday. Yeah, that would have been one of the ones. You know when somebody comes up to you in the street and you're like, yo, man, what y'all said about me on the break wasn't true. I'd be like, nick, I don't know what you're talking about, and they swell. I'll be like, well you got that from somebody. It wasn't like you

made it up. Well, yeah, no, it's all over it. If you're looking at right now. It's on Hot New Hip Hop, it's on Vibe, it's on Bossip. So he's saying that that is not a true story. So that is funny wop side of the story. So we're, as a fair outlet, we're playing what he had to say about that. Now. Eminem was on Mike Tyson's podcast, and amongst the things that he discussed, Mike Tyson talked about how the movie The Hangover actually helped to revive him.

I'm on this movie, I'm doing this set and stuff. I'm just a mess back then, so I do this movie. I don't think this movie. You know, I'm high all the time. And then I'm in a restaurant. I come out the restaurant. You see one of the little busses, you know, the tour bus. They see me. They must have went to the movie and so the preview because the movie wasn't out yet. And then when they saw me it must have been thirty. They all got off the bus and saying we love you, we saw you

in the movie. And then my friends zippo not no longer what they said, Hey, we got set in. They we're back. That's crazy that Mike Tyson said that that movie revived him, though, because to me, Mike Tyson has always been Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson meant that so much, he meant so much to black men and black culture that he always was Mike Tyson to me. But that was never fell off in my eyes. That was for hour age. Though for a lot of the younger kids,

they just know Mike Tyson from Hangover. Well, he didn't say younger kids. He just said, I'm back. You know what I'm saying. I mean, just to see Mike Tyson and made you look at him in a different light too, because he was funny, he was acting. You know, people were very intimidated by Mike Tyson and a lot of that he went through. And Living Colors showld me Mike Tyson that a sense of humor though, I mean, just the way they used to portray him on that. I

don't think he liked that though too much. No, he didn't. But actually that's really when you see when you see how they used to play him on the Living Color and didn't see him in real life, that's really how he is. Yeah, but you know he was mad about that. Though he definitely approached them about that. I don't think he thought it was funny, all right. Another thing that was discussed on Hot Boxing was Eminem talked about what his greatest achievement has been. Here's what he said, how

does that feel? You have a twenty three year old? It definitely is crazy. It definitely is crazy. I have a niece that I have helped raise two that's kind of like a daughter, pretty much like a daughter to me, and she is twenty six, and then I have a younger one that's seventeen now. So when I think about my accomplishments, like that's probably the thing I'm the most proud of is being able to raise kids. That's crazy.

Think about Eminem when he was younger and he had Halley and raising his daughter and how young she wasn't now he's they're in their twenties. Yeah, because all, yeah, that's crazy. It is a great accomplishment, though only when the kids are successful. It's not a great accomplishment when the kids aren't successful. Kids turned out pretty okay in life, Okay, if your kids, if your kids turn out, you know, a little off, you know, in jail, you know, doing

things they ain't got no business doing. You can't. You don't feel too accomplished. Successful is any that's just them like out of jail, no drugs. Yeah, that's right. Successful. But there's always a chance for people to turn their lives around too. That is true too. All right, now, let's talk about what else they said on this podcast, Tyson and Mike. Tyson and Eminem also talked about just being really good at their job, but that doesn't necessarily

translate to life. You were the best fighter. Yeah, but but in life that's not a good way to think. And fighting it is great, but in life it's reckless. Isn't that interesting? Yeah? To be successful in one field, it's disastrous in another field. Right. Yeah, with you, you were great and rap, but in life you will kind of shake. Yeah. It was the pressure of all a sudden boom and your faith and the judging people are

judging you, and you got the loads. We have a little weird self esteemating and that people are judging the same things about it, and we get defensive, and when we get defensive, we playing to the game. Yeah, you should listen. We have time, because I want to know what he's talking about. I want to know why he feels that way, Like, why does he feel like that didn't serve him well in life? Because it made him so much money, so I would think it would make

his life better. So I wonder what he means about that. Does he mean that he can't turn it off so he always wants to fight even when he's not in the ring. I don't know. Um. And in addition to that, Mike Tyson had this to say about eminem being treated like an N word and Eminem had no idea how to respond, And you're not no guy somebody gave anything. Everything you got was not even given the slave for it. You the only white guy than to be a name.

Answer that. I don't want to know what that means too. I need more on that, Like, how has Eminem being treated like an N word? Because he's saying a man In this case, he's saying N word as a black person. So how has the Eminem ever been treated like a black person? Eminem became Eminem because of the privilege of his white skin. We all know that. You don't think it's because he was a good rapper, though, man, don't We're not about to have this conversation. Everybody the mother

knows he was a good rapper. But he became a superstar because he's white. He said that himself. Those words will come out of his mouth, all right, But let's just because it's not just because not only because he's white, right, it had to start something. Being white helps a lot, a lot, because that Eminem would be red Man if he wasn't white, and red Man's grip. There's actually a lot of white never that have never been successful too.

At the same time, but I understand that all the white kids supporting his music is what made him this mega selling artists. He does get busy, but the fact that he's white took him to another come on Stragybody knows that, but he does. I will say that I remember when Eminem was trying to shop for a deal before he got signed, and people would not pay attention

to him or listen to his demo. Even so, as a matter of fact, the DJ and producer of Mathematics from Wouting, he always talks about how he had that demo for the longest and never even bothered to listen to it, and how many people had that and just because he was a right white rapper, they didn't want to pay attention to it. Call him that's what calls

him to get treated like an N word. That well, I don't know why he said that, but I'm just telling you the reality of what people have said about not wanting to listen to his demo when he was first getting started, before he became a mega star. It wasn't easy putting the door right. All right, ladies, all right, that is all and that is your report, all right. Up next is Donkey to day. We are giving that donkey too, Charlottage. You know it's a young woman, she's

not too young. But her name is ever Jelene Lee Lily or ever Jail. I don't know how you pronounce her name. I call it a wash I call it a wash well, I call it a washp because you know, I watched Marvel movies. But she needs to come to the front of the congregation because she's one of these people that's gonna keep us in the house for a long time because she's not listening. All right, we'll get

into that next keeping lock this to breakfast club. Good morning time for Donkey of the Day being Dunky of the Day, a little bit of a mix like a do other day. Now, I've been called a lot of my twenty three years, but Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Donkey of the Day for Friday, March twentieth goes that of Banji Lean Lily. Okay. If you don't know who that is, but you are a fan of all things Marvel like me, then you know Eva Eva Jeline. What the hell is her name? Evangeline Lily? Okay.

She plays the character of a Hope Van Dyne aka to Wasp from aunt man in the Wasp. I didn't even know her real name until this morning when I read this story. Some of y'all also probably know her from loss. I know her as the Wasp. But today she is a lesson to us all. I am using her as an opportunity to teach because she too woke. I hate wokeness. Okay, you have heard your uncle Charlotte say this a million, billion, trillion times. All woke people

need some damn sleep. Okay. Sleep loss dumps you down. Sleepiness causes you to be depressed. Sleepiness makes you forgetful. Sleepiness and pass your brain functions. It messages with your memory and decision making. And this is exactly what people

don't take into consideration when they woke all the time. Okay, go rest yourself, because right now, during this global pandemic that coronavirus has caused, we don't need anyone to get caught sleeping, because you getting caught sleeping isn't just impacting you, It's impacting all of us. See Evangeline, Lily, it's one of those people who still wants to be outside. Casanova, I blame you. Casanova was out here all last fall and winter screaming, he outside with it. Then him and

Uncle Murder did a song about it. Next thing, you know, everyone in named Mama. You know, up until a couple of weeks ago, was outside with it. We outside with it. Now I'm gonna cancer. I'm a natural homebody. I don't give a damn about being outside. I like to be in the house, minded my black ass business. So when I saw everybody outside with it and the dead o winner, I just didn't understand it. If it was bringing summer cool, I get it, But being outside with his five degrees?

Who got time for that? And see, some of y'all been outside so much the last few months that it's really become a habit, and now that it's time to break that habit and stay in the house to flatten this corona curve. You don't even know how. And some of y'all don't want to because you feel like the wasp.

You feel like Evangeline Lily. Okay, now I'm gonna read you what she posted yesterday on Instagram, and I know some of y'all gonna agree with her, and I'm gonna tell all of y'all why that is stupid after I read it. Now, Evangeline Lily posted on Instagram yesterday hashtag morning tea. Just dropped my kids off at gymnastics camp. They all wash their hands before going in. They are

playing and laughing hashtag business as usual. Now. What makes this all the more stupid is that Lily not only lives with her two young children, but also with her father, who has stage four leukemia. Leukemia already mixed the immune system weeks, so if her father catches coronavirus, it's probably a rap. But nope, Evangeline is throwing caution to the wind because, in her words, the coronavirus is just the respiratory flu and perhaps a political ploy by the government. Okay,

she posted on Instagram, there's something every election year. She posted, where we are right now feels a lot too close to martial law for my comfort. Okay. She continued by saying, let's be vigilant right now, keeping a close eye on our leaders, making sure they don't abuse this moment to

steal away more freedoms and grab more power. See, this is a combination of her just being stupid, but it's also a combination of us not trusting the Trump administration and we have no reason to Okay, it's an administration that we can't trust giving us orders and US rebelling against them because they've proven that they aren't for all Americans, just to rich and elite. And we've seen this administration

script away civil liberties before. So when they tell us stay in the house, we don't want to listen to them. And we didn't think Trump was a tyrant who wanted to be king. We would listen to national and local officials more when they tell us stay home. But here's the thing, whether you agree with the government or not, whether you think it's a political ploy or not, you

got hys don't you? You got his? Don't you? You can hear and see what's going on around you, right, common sense should tell you follow the money when you see the NBA, the NHL, all these corporations and companies shutting down. Evangeline, she's in Hollywood. All production is halted on everything, TV show films. When you see the money stop circulating. Not to mention people dying, Not to mention

all these folks getting sick. Common sense should tell you that it's something going on, and for the safety of your kids and your sick father at home. Even if you don't care about the rest of us, care about them. Look, we need people that make being inside is cool as y'all made being outside. Okay, the whole gang inside with it, practicing social distancing. You know why, because with no social distancing, or with social distancing, one person in five days can

infect two and a half people. Okay, So in thirty days I can turn to four hundred people, but the fifty percent of the people stay inside. One person in five days will infect one point two people, and in thirty days only fifty people will be infected. If you have seventy five percent of the people staying inside, one person infects point six twenty five people, not even a whole person. So that means in thirty days only two and a half people will be infected. What does that

translate to staying home? Okay, being inside, the whole gang inside with it. Okay. You can have all the conspiracy theories you want. You can believe it's a government ploy, you can you know, think that that it's not real, whatever, but understand, the virus is absolutely real. Okay, it exists. It's not a hoax, it's not fake all right, It's a real virus. Regardless of why it is here, or how it got here, or who's behind it. It's here, so move accordingly, because the life you save will probably

not be yours. I know, thinking about other people as a hard concept for some the grass, but grasp it so we can get back outside. Please give Evangeline Lily the biggest Hea Hall. All right, well, thank you for that donkey today, Charlemagne, Yes, indeed, all right. When we come back, let's open up the phone lines. Eight hundred five eight five one on five one.

Do you have a friend that just won't stay home? We want to talk to you, guys. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Hello, who's this? This is Carmel from Brooklyn. They ain't Carmel from Brooklyn? Are you one of those people? I just can't stay home. I can't stay home. I have to take care of

your grandparents who grandparents? Grandparents passed away? Yeah? Wait, grandparents? Taking care of your hypothetical grandparents? I work at a resilian Yeah, I really, I've really been thinking about y'all because I was wondering about the care takers because they have to be around the elderly. But then y'all still got to go home and be in the world. So I wonder what kind of precautions y'all are taking while

y'all around those elderly folks. We have a whole set of new precautions that we have to take, specifically for the crew and a virus. We have to wear masks all the time. We got to wash our hands all the time before we can come into the facility. We got to deep check out for our temperatures. And they ask us a bunch of questions every day. So we're taking all the precautions to make sure everybody's safe, ourselves included. Well, you're necessary, carmel like you have a reason to be, y'ad.

You're taking care of other people. So to me, you're putting other people before you. So I salute you, but the scrippers stay your ass home. Thank you, you appreciate and all the service you're doing. Hello, who's this? This is Latitia from Alabama. We could tell you on the road right now, so your ass won't stay home. Why are you out and about you? What do you do when your employer puts the bottom dollar over the safety health of their employee? You come in coughing every day,

go to work, You come in coughing every day. Fakes mething crazy. It is ridiculous where I work at it. There are six cases reported in about five to ten minutes from my job. The hospital is like up the street from my job. What do you do? What do you do? They sent out a letter this is the BS. They sent out a letter that set for us to stay away six feet from our customers. I work for a loan company. There is no way possible that you are able to do that when you come in close

proximity with the customers on a regular basis. Is there any reason for a long company to be open right now if everything's closed? Yes, the money ain't moving. Why y'all can't work from home? That's crazy because they don't allow us. They don't allow the people that are in the stores from working from home. Only the corporate offices, the higher y'all not giving out no LANs right now. The money is not moving. Some people say, we're already in a recession. Now they're going to spend it. That

is the point. And if you're in a hotspot area, I mean not just it's just ridiculous. The kids is home. I mean when the company puts their dollars ahead of you, that really tells you you're working for the wrong company. That's a fact, shows you right with their morals and their ethics are well. I'm sorry, I am with jobs right now. Try to be healthy is possible, Try to you know, sanitize everything that you can, Mama, and why your hands continuously okay? And you know the workers don't

want to salute man. I want to salute all the therapists, all the psychiatrists, all the the spiritual advisors like people that you know, keep us mentally healthy, that are available via phone or FaceTime or skype at a time like this.

Salute to y'all. Man, you really are appreciated. Absolutely. Also the sanitation, the people are working in the hospitals, the people that actually have to stock those grocery stores and work at the grocery stores because you see, you know, millions of people a day and you're still out there doing that. We appreciate you, guys, even a young man. Man. I went to the grocery store last week and it was a brother that had to get all the shopping carts back then, and you know he was pushing like

forty fifty shopping carts. Salute to that brother too, man, I had to salute to him a little tip, man, I agree with you. Salute to everybody at grocery stores. Salute to people who's still working at restaurants because it's some people who are still ordering takeout. I'm not gonna front last week or this week. I went to Paula's Soul Food and Hackensack, New Jersey. Salute everybody in paul is just everybody that's still providing things that people actually need.

You are appreciated at of Lift and Uber drivers who are still working. I know Uber each isn't charging right now for delivery charges and all of that. People who work at best Buy. Best Buy is still open. They're doing like curbside so you can order it, go pick it up outside and things like that. So people are still working and making sure that you get the things that you need. Yes, and listen, all right, one more

thing too. It's been on my mind all you liberal progressive folks who like to change language and always monitoring words. When we're gonna come up with a better word for when people got a disease, because there's nothing positive about having a disease, nothing positive about having the coronavirus. We need to come up with another word for that, y'all. All.

I want to change words and be confusing us find a new word for when somebody has the actual disease instead of positive because it's nothing positive about all right, well, all right, now we got rumors all the way. Yes, let's talk about a young berg. Now he talks about the time when a lot of rappers wouldn't stay and buy him, and he names one person in particular. All Right, we'll get into that next. Keep it lock this the breakfast club, Good morning, the breakfast club. She's filling the tea.

This is the ruler rapport with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Yeah. So walka Flocker and Tammy Rivera are promoting their news we TV reality show Wacky Walker and Tammy What the Flocker, And one thing that they did discuss recently was prenups. Now Here is what Walker had to say about not wanting to have a prenup with Gary with the tea. Love don't don't stand on the same pedestal as money, and money could never stand on the same pedestal as love. If you love a person,

it shouldn't be money. They shouldn't be sick, it shouldn't be fashish't be no color, no shape, nothing Now for me, if I marry you and I'm this rich guy. You're rich too, but you got but I suppose to the man to make your spirit rich. That's what's wrong with couples. People. People look at the money and don't pay attention to the spirit. That's that's a big difference. Because I could make my wife spirit so rich to the post, she'd

be richer than me financially. That's an interesting perspective. I mean, I can see people who look at it as you know,

there's love, but then there's business. But you know, I also feel like, you know, when you when you do a prenup, you're kind of saying you're kind of leaving the door open a little bit for things not to work out, maybe you know, necessarily, not necessarily, Like if you're in a relationship like me, or me and my wife, or you and your wife Charlemagne, where you've been together since sixteen seventeen or whatever eighteen, you know the person

is there for you. But now you think it's somebody who's a multi millionaire that meets somebody you just don't know what they're there for. Very true, very true. It's business. I was watching this movie while I was at home. You know, during all this time a marriage story. Did

y'all watch that on Netflix? So this couple got married on there, And I think sometimes people don't anticipate what could potentially happen to protect themselves, and they spend so much money going through this whole thing with having to get a divorce and paying the lawyers all this money when they could have really sat down and worked it out themselves. But it can be really expensive if things don't work out and people do things that you might

never expect. So I can understand both points of view, Like some people might be like, all right, you know, we don't need it, but I can understand also just feeling like, look, I never know anything could potentially happen, so let me make sure I'm good so I could see it. Yeah. Yeah, into Envy's point, you know, when you get into relationship young, like we did you know, I build my wife's in high school? We had nothing, so we want to think about no dan pre numbs.

What were we going to split up a pack of gum? Yeah? So again, you know, it's just hard to tell. I don't think anybody ever gets married but the intention of getting divorced, but the reality is it does happen. So for some people. Prepare yourselves right. All right, now, let's talk about Shaquille O'Neill. He's been having a good time as far as surprising people. He was popping into some

video lessons. You know, first graders in Georgia were getting their classes online and he actually surprised them and you can see him keep popping up in the video chat Hello. Yeah, that was pretty cool man. Salute to Shack Man. Thank god for Shack. The world needs more Shock. They're doing their lessons over FaceTime. So he is a family friend of one of the students, and so that ended up happening. I don't think people putting enough emphasis on Shock's business

document too. Man. Shack's doing a lot of stuff on the entrepreneur front. Shock gonna be a billionaire. He definitely is, and I think so too. All right now, young Burg. He recently was talking about how a lot of artists didn't want to touch him after all the things that he went through, and one person he talked, he Goular that would not work with him was jeezy. Here's what

he said. I ain't gonna lie like I was at the video and this when I was in a bad spot, like it wasn't like a bad spot, but so much that happened to me, and like Streets ain't really won't be around me like that, you know what I'm saying, Like Jeezy ain't won't be in a video like it was like a rule, like I can't be in those shots with Jeez. Well, Charlomagne spoke to Jeez also, and here's how Jeez responded when he says that artists said that he would not put them on. One of the

critiques was, Jeez has never put anybody on music. I've tried to put people on, but everybody was part of my first project. They don't you know drama. He might, he might beg to differ, but that that gaister Grills wasn't in the hood like that until Young was on that thing Trapper died. I would agree, right, but he probably says something different. But I know better because nobody else got the mixtape played in the club for five or six hours straight word for word with the DJ drops.

He knows. Yeah, Me and me and Jeez got a conversation dropping today called twenty twenty Hindsight. It'll be out at twelve twenty pm on YouTube. But I could be Young Burg got to understand that though Young Burg was going through whatever he was going through, and when people was treating him like the hip hop Pinyada and he was getting his chain snatched and all, Yeah, I can see why a certain artist wouldn't want to work with him.

There was a lot of fboy ish and I think he even knows that, but you know, it is what it is. He bounced messing them back in the day when people cared about their reputations, their street reputations, you know, because nowadays, if you gotta hit, you gotta hit. He was. Plus, he wasn't making beach back then either. Now was he? I don't think so. I don't remember making beat he was still he was more about artists. He was Young Burg.

Now he's hit maker, the producer. Yeah, i'll take I'll take a beach hitmaker, but I don't want no verse from Young Burg. Other things that are dropping today The Weekend has a new project, Mac Miller side a Baby. Um. Yeah, there's a lot of new music and I guess we're home so we're able to listen to whatever we need to listen to. Shout out to everybody that has new

music coming out. Also, just pointing out this weekend on Saturday, season seven of b et Being is starting and I'm kicking off the new season being Angela yeese, so you can check me out. I think that comes on at ten pm Eastern bet Her so I'll be featured on bTB and you get to see what a day is like in my life and it was pretty cool. So thank you to everybody at bt for including me. And we're kicking off season seven on Saturday. All right, I'm I want to watch I want to watch the Madame CG.

Walker's story on Netflix this weekend too. I think that's a good thing, especially if you've got you know, young daughters, sent them around and get them to know the history of Madame CG. Walker. Man, I kept thinking that it was out already. So last week I was watching on Netflix and I'm like, where is it? Where is it? But it wasn't out yet. But I would definitely be watching that this weekend. Can't wait? All right? Choice mixes up next, get your re question. It's the Breakfast Club,

Good Morning Wanting. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the God. We all the Breakfast Club. Now it's women's History Month and who we repping today? Ye, well today we are representing for Simone Bio. She is the gymnast with the most world medals, that's twenty five, the most world gold medals, that's nineteen, and she is the female gymnast with the most world all around title. So congratulations to her. She is such an inspiration for so many people.

And here she is on CBS News talking about her motivation. And this is all right after she won the twenty sixteen Rio Olympics. Five Olympic medals that year and four gold ones. It's Woman's History Month and we're celebrating the most influential women and check out this phenomenal woman. But I was thinking about about your performances and how you are probably what many other athletes are hoping to become. Like you're their goal, You're their motivation. Will I be

able to pull off a Biles? Will I be able to create a move that someone names after me? Can you tell us like a little bit more about that move and where it even came from, how you invented it? Okay, so a little while ago, or like three years ago, whenever I was making the skill up, I was doing the first pass in my routine. If you look back at the video, I was trying that skill one day

and I landed a little bit short. I partially tore my calf muscle, and my coach said, well, if you just throw a half twist, no one's ever done that before, so you could potentially get it named after you if you ever make a World's team. And it'll also take the strain off of your calfs because it's a forward landing. So then I just started playing around with that in the gym, and that's how it came about. And that was another phenomenal woman in history. Yes, congratulations to Simone Bios.

We are celebrating her during Women's History months. She is the person who many people refer to as the greatest gymnast ever. All right, all right, when we come back, we got your positive notes, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning.
