Eight hundred five eight five, one oh five one. Now we got rooms on the way. Yes. And Jada Pinkett Smith, she was on Red Table Talk and she was just got seem the difficulty of maintaining a healthy sex life with her husband Will Smith. Why did it be misconstruing people's words. Yeah, let's talk about that, all right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. She's filling the team. This is the

rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, Ti and Tiny were on Instagram and they were showing the development that they're building in Bankhead. Here's what Ti had to say, checking up my development Hill Bankhead, man. You know what I'm saying. It's right here. Used to be the old Kamar Giant Food. Now we got a ford of a house and one hundred and forty three units going on mixed use community. We're about forty percent done. Man,

we poled to be done sometime next year. Since everybody so much from here, let's see what what you don't did for here you did. If you're doing a whole bunch of job jacking, I'm gonna show man. But you know this our first project that's developers were out of it, trouping a clue box and tipping tiny man had that property for a minute two, So I'm glad to see them up developing that too. Right, it's gonna be one hundred and forty three units, a community center at Greenhouse,

a garden and tiny also posted. God just keeps it blessing us to bless others. Tau the man, I love to say, our big project is coming along. Yeah, we spoke about that, I think like four years ago when I see Tia and the thing with those development project projects, you got to have everything correct because you actually have people living there, so you got to make sure the permitter right, you have enough parking. Everything you have to make sure it is flawless. So shout out to tas

a lot of work all right now. Jada Pinkett Smith was on her Red Table Talk. Whyneth Paltrow was the guest, and they were talking about being able to communicate during sex and maintaining a healthy sex life. It's hard. I mean. The thing that Will and I talked about a lot is the journey. I mean, we started in this at a very young age, you know, twenty two years old. That's why the accountability part really hit for me, because I think you expect your partner to know, especially when

it comes to sex. It's like, well, if you love me, you should know, you know what I mean, if you love me, you should be able to read your Yeah, you know huge, that's a huge pip. Yeah. Border blogs ran with that clickbait headline yesterday didn't. But there's a lot of different headlines. And Jada went on Twitter and said, only because I got time today, stopped making up headlines. Watched the Red Table talk I did with going a pouch up for yourselves, Will and I have never had

an issue in the bedroom, thank you. Yeah, I listened to that yesterday. I didn't hear what that headline said. I comprehended it, like she was saying, just because you've been with a person so long, don't expect them to be a mind reader. She said, having expectations that your partner is a mind reader is a pitfall in a relationship. Don't expect people to read your mind, which is a fact. Well,

here's what else she had to say. Here, though, it's like someone doesn't read your mind and we feel crush goshed. Where do we get that from? I don't know because like that at all, I guess, or maybe I've just grown out of it, because I've grown out of it too. Yeah, tell me what you need, tell me what you want. And on top of it, I know that I have to be accountable to do the same. And do you I really try? Yeah. Yeah, it's uncomfortable, but it's deeply healthy.

And I think around sex because it's something that we don't talk about a lot and has so much fantasy around it. Right, So when do you get that headline with her and Will out of that conversation that they had difficulty in the bedroom? Let me see where was the actual headline? The headline was, Jada Picketsmith speaks on difficulties of maintaining healthy sex life with Will Smith. Where

do you get that from? Off that conversation? I got Jesus Norman Pinketsmith went fro knows Carter and I may be biased, but damn all right, NBA Young Boy is gonna be staying on twenty four hour lockdown and he cannot have overnight guests at his house in Utah while he's out on bond, So he can't have more than three visitors in his home at a time. All visitors must be approved by a judge and he'll be subject

to electronic location monitoring. He posted a five hundred thousand all a bond and he cannot bring any laws obviously while ad on bond, he has to cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample, appearing court as required, surrender if convicted, to serve any sentence at the court, mayon pose no firearms or weapons, avoid all contact with any

victims or witnesses, and the investigation. He can't get a passport or any other international travel document, a lot of different things, and he also has to maintain or actively seek employment. So we don't know when his trial will be, but we'll let you guys. If y'all want NBA Young Boy to be a player in squid game, just say that, Lord, have mercy, like a high degree of difficulty and sending him love to Ben in the butcher I saw that they had posted a picture of him in the hospital.

He was supposed to be performing at Saint Andrew's in Detroit, but they did have to postpone that and they posted the picture of him, so you know, he really was in the hospital. But it was for an asthma related issue. So he does have asthma and that's why he's been taking all these extra precautions with COVID and everything. But yes, so hopefully, hopefully he's feeling better. To loud to the butcher manson and you're healing energy king, all right, that

is your rumor reports, all right, thank you, missie. Never got frontage news coming up. Yes, and a man in a lawsuit he said he was fired from a hospital system because he is a white man. He just got a ten million dollars verdict, all right. And also Ava Douvene will be joining us next hour, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club co morning, So Breakfast Club, your morning's will never be the same. No bids created the More Than Just Words initiative to raise awareness about racial

disparities and breast cancer care. To learn more, about what more than just words hope to accomplish? And here talk with Grahamy nominated R and B artist Jasmine Sullivan. Visit more than Just Words dot us Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get into Front Page News World Series Game two the Ashoal side it up. They beat the Braves last

night seven to two. Now what else we got easy? Well, the median US home price has just past four hundred thousand dollars for the first time ever, according to data. So right now, the median home price has hit four hundred and four thousand, seven hundred dollars, jumping nearly twenty percent since the third quarter of twenty twenty when it was three hundred and fifty eight thousand. So they said, the market has been crazy lately, a lack of inventory,

high demand. That's why there is a rising home price. It is crazy out there. I mean, the house marketing is crazy. The interest rates are still lower, they're the lowest that we've ever seen. So they're giving loans like crazy, but just make sure you can't afford it. A lot of these houses all going for over price which is surprising to me, boy, because these houses and they just keep going up, keep going up, keep going up. Yeah. And also the price of everything has been going up,

right with this shortage of episode. If you're trying to do some construction to tough time, supplies are expensive, I mean nuts, Bolts, lumber Trust, May I had to do my coffee shop. Everything was about thirty percent more expensive. Absolutely, furniture, if you want to buy furniture, that's up. If you're trying to buy a car, every everything, of our clothes, anything is going up in price, all right. Now, A jury has awarded ten million dollars to a former executive.

He said he was fired because he is a white man, and this is in North Carolina, David Duval of Michigan. He sued Novant Health. He said he was fired as senior vice president of Marketing and Communications the previous year without cause as part of an intentional campaign to promote diversity in its management ranks, and that he was fired due to his sex and gender. Now Novant Health says

they are denying those allegations. They said that he was fired for a deficient performance and the delegation of critical duties to his subordinates. They said, we are extremely disappointed in the verdict as we believe it is not supported by the evidence presented a trial, and so they will pursue all legal options, including an appeal. He said he was fired shortly before his fifth anniversary at the company and was replaced by a black woman and a white woman. Yeah.

How do you even prove that though? I mean, because truth he told that might be the case, But how do you even prove that's the case? How do you prove you got fired because you know, you were whiting the mail and the company wanted to diverse fire, right, because if he really was doing a bad job, there's got to be some type of internal emails showing that he was deficient. And but the verdict did say in the joury that U race and sex was a motivating

factor in the termination. So that's why they sure it was. Over the past year, a lot of these companies wanted to diverse fire, as they should have, you know, But I'm just saying, how do you prove that? I don't know, but I think, um, that's why it's really important to try to get as much as possible on email, right, That's why whenever you ever putting that in the email. No, no, no, not that I'm saying. If you work, if you if

you no, guys, listen to what I'm saying. If you have an employee that's not doing a good job, you have to send emails, you know, throughout, so that later on, if they try to come back and sue you for something, you can say, well, here's the emails where I emailed you and told you this, here's why, as as proof. And then if you're an employee and you have issues with your employer, it is important and that you email your employer so that later on in case something happens,

you have that trust me. That's what I mean. Like those those those eyes were dieted, and those teams were crossed on behalf of the corporation because they knew that they had to get dude out of there for whatever reason, and they knew that was going to be the reasoning that it was going to be poor performance. I'm sure that they got it buttoned up. But I just want to know how he could think he could prove that they got rid of him because he's white. But somehow

he did and somehow got ten million dollars. Yeah, all right, now, this was very interesting to watch. Charlie Kirk, he's a founder of the conservative student group Turning Point USA, and he was having his own um taking questions. This was in Idaho and Napa, Idaho, and one of his I guess supporters wanted to ask about this. We're living under a corporate and medical fascism. This is tyranny. When do we get to use the guns? No, I'm not that's

not a joke. I'm not saying it like that. I mean, literally, where's the line? How many elections are they going to steal before we kill these people? So well, no, I'm going to denounce thatment. Tell you why, because you're playing into all their plans. What I'm saying is that we have a very fragile balance right now at our current time, where we must exhaust every single peaceful mean possible. Even Charlie Kirk thought that was too far to use the

guns and kill people. That's what happens when you don't throw the book at the people who attempted a coup of this country on January sixth, Because when they think that they can get away with something like that, the next one is going to be even worse. That's why you have to prosecute everybody involved to the fullest extent

of the loss. Look at them thinking and then look what was interesting was that he said it was wrong because you're playing into what they expect you to play into, not because it's wrong because you don't do that, you know what I'm saying. So that's why, No, it's not anybody that's been paying attention. Y'all should see that's where it's going. And guess what. The other side ain't built for that at all. The other side ain't even thinking

about it. That's why you have too toughen up Democrats. Okay, Biden administration Supreme caught all of these people, and you have to throw the book at the people who attempted to cool at this country on January sixth. You have to prosecute them, everybody, the politicians that were involved, the people that were involved, everyone. You got to make a real example out of them. You know, people get killed for attempted coups in another country, create execution, execution, people

get killed for burning flags in other country. Sir, like, come on, you have to really, I'm telling you, if you don't prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. The next one is gonna be even worse. All right, well that is your rumor report. I mean I'm front page News. Sorry, goodness gracious, all right, all right, right now, when we come back, Ava Duvenai will be joining us. We're gonna kick it with Ava Duvenais. She has a

new series on Netflix called Colin Black and White. We'll talk to about it all when we come back, So don't move. It's to Breakfast Club.

Embrace doing less well that the pandemic was it a god making us all be still that kind of during the pandemic? I think I reacted by making myself very busy. But how did you How did you work during the pandemic because they shut everything down? I know definitely in LA I wasn't shooting, but I was writing and pitching and selling, and so I sold eight shows and I had to

make those shows this year. So you were working, working. I was really really working, and I filled up the time where I could have just been silent and still. But I didn't sell. You did your first unscripted show, I did Home, Sweet Home. I did That was so hard. It was kind of like because the description of it. When I first was selling, I was like, this is interesting because I used to love wife swap. Yeah, but

this was a little it was like a positive wife show. Yeah, it was a positive The whole family went, and it wasn't based on conflict. It's more about curiosity. Like there's no Braddy teenager who's throwing shoes, and like I don't want to go. Everybody wants to go, right, and so they want to go exchange and explore, And so that was the idea. I like it. It's a really really sweet show. And then the DC comics. DC comms, I have two of them, aren't working on right. Nahale is

gonna start watching DC. I will watch Marvel. No, I'm a Marvel person. Are you really very very hard? Call Marvel? When did this happen? And I don't from life? I got this nasty Wolverine just a year. This is Wolverine this is a Marvel cat. I had this since like seventeen, Like I'm a huge is that Marvel person? You know. I always loved Wolverine, and I realized when I was young, I gravitated towards Wolverine because of his healing powers. Okay, but now it's like that's what I'm about. Just yeah,

there you go. Yeah, but I will watch a DC anything if you make it. I like the graphic novels that don't have superhero. So we're doing DMZ, which is all about New York City that's been destroyed by a civil war and people have been evacuated from New York City. And there's some people who said I'm not going like anti vaxxers, right, and like, I'm not doing it. I don't care what you say. I'm staying right here. And it's about them how they build a society with what's left.

Would you go if there was evacuation where we had to go? You just say yes with no where It depends on where to go? Yeah where we going? Um? Yeah, can you have to go outside? It's just the island of Manhattan has been evacuated. That's interesting, I mean and say, though, yeah you can say, I just think it will Smith movie when when everybody had to leave in Manhattan. Yes, I don't want to be here by myself, So yeah,

I'm out. I'm thinking of a Bible store. I'm thinking of Sidom in More when God told a lot in his family evacuate essentially and they had to bounce. All right, Yeah, so it depends who told me. Okay, all right, interesting answers. All right, let you go to the Caribbean. I'm like, all right, I'm out right. Well, on the outside of the United and on the outside of New York. There's a war going on. So you have to pick sides where you go right in this place. So it's like,

are you gonna go on the Maga side? Are you gonna go on the Bernie Sanders side? I don't know. I don't know. I'm just so you on the mackaside. Okay. I like, what if Magaside was nicer? I don't see how that's possible. I'm just asking questions. I already have a space in my home in case something happens really Yeah, like a purge where I can hide a perch. Yeah, in perge, like, yeah, where you won't find me. Do you have like food in there, I cread if it

was necessary, said I do too. I got caned foods, I got water, everything, flashlights, battery, a weapon, all that just just in case. What if the Trump side has better resources, That's what I'm saying, So would you put on a red hat? Just those are the questions, you know, if they had more resources, they have more weapons, if you could pass, if you could find a safer space,

like it's interesting. So that's that's a little bit about what's in a way we're kind of doing that now, right because if you're in a certain class, you might be living in an area where you're not necessarily welcome, but it might be a better area. That's true. You know, we have more with Ava Duvene where we come back, don't move. It's to breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ envy a Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we

all to Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Ava Duvene. Now, let's talk about your new series or Netflix Colin in Black and White. It's a limited series on Netflix. It starts on Friday, and I collaborated with him on it for three years. We met at the time one hundred event here in New York, I don't know, maybe four years ago, and we did that Hollywood thing. Oh, let's keep in touch, and he actually called and said, I'm thinking about doing something with my life. I'm like, Yes,

we're gonna do the Neil. I'm gonna have it a crane. It's gonna drop down on your knee, it's gonna wrap around the knee. We're gonna do that. I'm gonna do the best shots on this Neil. I'm gonna make an incredible film. It's gonna lead up, it's gonna have Trump and see He's like, yeah, no, I was thinking high school. I really wasn't sure how to do it. And until he started telling me these stories, which were really interesting.

They were small, little stories about the little things that happened to him while was this adopted by racial kid in this white household. Of the little things that the microaggressions. I've never really seen a show about microaggressions, little things that people say to us that change our mind, our heart, our direction, make us doubt ourselves, or just hurt, but we don't talk about because we're total that's not that bad.

So it's about those but then also using those to springboard us into larger conversations about race, class, respectability, privilege. So I use like have Jaden Michael's this brilliant kid, who's the actor who plays Colin Young? And then I've got um you know, breaks out into documentary and the graphics, animation, these little plays, these little vignettes. It's all kinds. It's like a collage of styles because people have gone into and like is this a doc is a what is

it going to be? Not quite sure what the tone of it is, but it's a lot of tones put into one. It's different. What did you learn about Colin through his younger years? Like, you know, we all can tie things back to our child a lot of a lot of the ways we act now that doughts are because of things that happened to us in our childhood. So what did you learn about him now that he is very that stick to itness that's happening right now on his stance and like this is my stand and

I will not move. You can see in the early life how through this where where that starts? Interest? Like I am pretty pretty solid in myself if I have an idea, but I can be moved. I mean, if you really sat down and had a real conversation with me, like I'd be like, Okay, you're right, or this might be a little more comfortable, or this might help someone, or this he is like, this is my thing, and I'm not veering from it in any in any respect.

And so it's if you see that whole aspect, you see where that came from, because that's a very particular trait I wanted. That comes from being a black adopted child in this white family and knowing that they're just dead wrong about some things. Sometimes I don't know, it might I think there's some answers to it in the in the series, and I think also I hope the series as people ask them selves, what are the things that you've learned or that happened to use the little things.

It's part of like what therapy is. But even if people don't kind of excavate this in therapy, just to think about the little things that people have said to you that have changed the way you behave and act. Like for me, when I was nine years old, this boy said your elbows are darker than the rest of your body. And I was like, yeah, okay, I guess that's a bad thing the way that he said it.

And so you would rarely see me in a picture where I show my own really, yeah, even to this day, and I'm I'm aware, like I know where that came from, but still I'm like to discover them, you know. And so when you think about all the little things that have been said to you that have changed the way you think about yourself or the way that you move through the world, that's what I was interested in this piece.

Every single thing is connected to childhood druma. I think, so all your insecurities that you have now, your lack of worthiness, whatever it is, I promise you it probably stems to something that was said to you in your childhood by somebody. Really, yes, at least for me, But

everybody doesn't have a traumatic childhood's. But I guess little microaggressions, the little things that wasn't necessarily trauma for you, it made you have an insecure I guess it's unkindness or just like the little things that hit you and hit your spirit in a negative way. This is interesting because but Colin Kapnick, I feel like so many other people are telling his story and trying to dissect what it is that he's doing, how he grew up, why he feels its way, so you get to hear it from

his point of view. Finally, yeah, it is. I mean he doesn't really do the interview. He doesn't do interviews, he doesn't speak. So this is the way that he was expressing himself, and I felt I was very pleased that he chose me, because it has to be hard to hear people talking all this about you all the time and you not really responding. I was at dinner with him the day that Trump was unleashing these crazy tweets. It happened maybe two or three hours before the dinner.

I think he's gonna cancel the dinner because I putting together a war room something figuring out his tweets back. I do mean I'd be you know, I would be active. He was at the dinner. I mean we were just in a hole in the wall vegan food. He was chilling us, like, you're not riled up? Not really. He's like a roll off the back kind. I mean, he's he's into it and focused on it, but it's not ruling his life. How was he as a narrator explaining his story to you, was he open, like, do you

have the pride out of him? Because he seems like a very quiet he's interesting. He's something unlike anyone i've I've actually met, because he no but once he starts talking, he'll talk. So when we were developing it, yeah, he was very comfortable and he would we were trying to find stories, so it was just like I was asking with a ton of questions. But no, he's he's talkative.

And they said, one of the most interesting people. Why I think he's fascinating to me because he's a puzzle to me still and I've known him for I guess four or five years now. Um, I just have never met anybody like him. I've never met anybody who just won't move off from an idea. Really, you know what, that's not true. There was some collaboration where there's a couple times because we're making us together, so sometimes he'd wins, sometimes I'd win. And I always said, I said, he's

the type record because this is about him. So even if I disagree with it, I'm going to do it because this is his story. That's why I said to the exonerated five. You know, that's what I said. To, you know, members of the king family. With some I was like, the bottom line is, if someone was doing something on your life, you'd want them to interpret and do their thing, but at the end, you'd want to

be able to say the same. Right. I don't like it now when you said you cleared your plate, So does that mean that because I know there's like probably a whole backlog of things that are coming your way. Is it disappointing when there's things that you really want to do but you just can't because you Yeah, that's so interesting you say that this. Yes, there's a thing I want to do, and I've got all these other projects that I love, but I can't do that until

I cleared this project, you know what I mean. And so that's why I'm trying to and not clear in a way of let me get these out of the way, but I want to do right by those projects so I can get to this other project because it a dream project. It's just my next film, you know, because I'm working a lot on TV and TV. But you know, I believe in five years, film and TV will be the same thing. What you mean, I mean, it's already we're going in a place where it's going to be.

It's not going to be films in the theater and TV. Do you think that's gonna hurt the film industry, because yeah, it is, it is, and it's I'm not saying it's my preference. I'm saying it's happening. And there's people in my industry that don't want to face the fact that that's what's happening, so they want to fight against it, but they're just wasting time kind of extreaming music. You have to figure out how to adapt and just adapt instead of trying to fight it because it's going to happen.

I hate adapted die. I can't stand anybody way. It's like that in every you got this old but I'm not only die like literally, but you're gonna die figuratively because you got these old guards who don't understand new technology. Unfortunately, it's very sad the time we spend having conversations about what is a film and how do we say? We could be thinking about ways to you know, move it forward and progress it forward in a way that it's

helpful for everyone. But as a filmmaker, don't you want to see it a certain absolutely crimp you might not have the clarity of a television. You don't have the sounds. You know, things come from all different angles that you're not going to have in the house that I'm sure as you're a perfectionist when it comes to it's it's the dream for the filmmaker to be in the Christine cinema. But it also is true that that's really steeped in privilege.

You know, there's no movie theater in Compton where I grew up, Like there's certain cinema deserts in our country that don't even have a movie theater. Right, If you're really about having your film scene, then you need to focus on where can it be widely seen, as opposed to is the sound exactly right? Of course we want that. I was at a screaming of this of this show last night, and I'm checking sound, I'm checking picture. But

I also just want people see it. I'm very satisfied if you watched on your phone in the train station on the way that the thing is that my preferred Hell no, But do I want you to see it. I want you to see it more than I care about the way that you see it. So I think that's the question with a lot of filmmakers, because you're given us so much great art on so many different platforms. You know, screaming, you know when they see us thirteen you know, Queens show Goods on linearis. It's like you've

given us so much great program many different places. Yeah, and you have to be able to watch in different places. I mean it's painful to see someone watching something on the phone. Yeah, it's like, you know how hard we worked. You don't even understand. I mean, I'm on a mix stage. We mix the sound. We take weeks to mix the sound so you can hear it in the speaker. We take weeks to tweak the color. People watching on Shankie TVs, like on that laptop. You know, it's it's like, oh God,

why do we even go through this? So have you ever thought yourself? You you like it, but you would love it if you saw the way it was supposed to I tell people all the time, if you could see it in the way it was meant to be seen, you well move. We got more with Ava Duvenat where we come back. It's the breakfast Cluble Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we are

to Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Ava duvenai Ye our praying is your team to you because I feel like with all these projects that you have, you have to have the right team. How did you manage to put that together? Yeah, that's hard to find the right group of people. It just takes time. And then also you it requires a discern that I haven't always had, being able to discern who what kind of people you

want around you. It's not just the resume, it's not just what they've done, it's kind of their spirit and who they are. Um. You know, during COVID, we tripled inside at my company Array and UM. We hired people to work during that time in certain positions, but I never met them because we weren't meeting. So I was meeting them through the computer and they were cool on the computer. Um. And these are all great people, still good people to this day. But there's some chemistry that

happens with people when you meet them. You gotta It's an energetic thing, right, and so I think teams are about energy. And the one thing I hate about teams, because I work with a lot of actors in LA there's this thing where people blame their team on bad behavior, like they've done something like they don't want to do the thing, and they'd be like, oh, my team said I didn't want to do it, but I would have done. I was fine, I was fine. I didn't even know

I didn't need My team. Didn't tell you what your team did. Your team work for you or not work for you. They just push you around. The worst is when the team denies it and then the person texts you later like yo, I want I just want you to know it wasn't me, it was my team, Like huh right, this is such a whack excuse, but it runs rampant in our industry, and I just want to say, right now we all know, like just stop, we know

it's you. You know what I would love to talk about because I don't think you get enough credit for this, the database that you created through to help people find black people for certain positions in Hollywood, black and brown and women and even older people who get faced out of our industry because they might I mean, when I stay older, it's like sixty, you can still work in our industry that's considered old. So yeah, no, it's a Databa's a super simple idea, but people would always say, oh,

we can't find a black grip. Where we can't find a black or brown camera operator. It was like, I know a ton of them. I'm want to put them all in one DAP base because I hire them all the time. But people say they can't find them. So we have thousands of people in this database. Every single studio now is subscribed to it and they use it. People are getting hired off that thing every day. I mean,

we need more people in the database. So if you're out there and you do something that's that you've ever had, all you need is one credit to get in right, So if you've done something on a set, or if you've worked on a set, go to a ray crew and sign up. Good a job. Where do you see Colin after this show? I mean he has a lot of things planned. I don't know what he's doing. He's got his book, publishing things and documentaries, got to deal

with ESPN. I mean I think that I hope that he moves more and more into that space, that storytelling space, because I mean, whether it's producing or whether it's I was when I was directing him, because he actually is a he's a narrator of this, so he's on camera. He was actually really good at taking direction and said that he might be interested in doing some more. Man.

I was like, like acting, he said, yeah, I could see him like a black John Wick type, like a strong silent I come with the gun and I do the thing. But it's for justice, of course, right, it's for justice. But you know we're doing some kind of action thing along those lines. I don't know. But the world is his Orchester. It's up to him. He's still working out, he's still trying. He prepared. That's not my wish for him. I don't want him to go back

into an unhealthy, racist environment people. I don't want that for him. But you have to support your friends, and that's what he wants to. You know, he still has that in his heart. He loved it. He loved that sport. Imagine the thing prove years his life fighting for it. When you see this series, you see how much he fought. He was a three sport athlete, football, baseball, and basketball. His best sport was baseball. He was being recruited into the major leagues out of high school. No one said

play football. He had he had love for he had no prospects. In the last two episodes of this thing, you see, I didn't even know this about him, how hard he worked to just get that football scholarship. It was the only one he god, one football offer. That's how that's the reason why he wants to play so much, because he's been doing it, doing it and fight. He had to fight for it. So imagine the one thing you love, whatever did you love, and they said you

can't do it anymore? I was gonna ask as a director, right, we see what with Alec Baldwin as checks and balances to make sure things like that don't happen in movies, whether it's accident shootings or anything with stunt man is they had checks and balances. Absolutely, That's why that was so startling. I mean it's hard to even talk about I haven't talked about it publicly, but for people who are on sets and I'm on set, um, you know, maybe seventy percent of my years on a set, and

you're around that crew and everybody's working every day. You get to know the crew and love the crew, and you're all working towards a goal. Everyone is having each other's back and protecting each other. The last time we had a real gun on a set with Selma, that was a set I didn't control because at that time I had no power to produce. It wasn't a producer on it, and it was safe. Three armorers and everything

was done according to code. But the reason why I don't have guns on my set is because during Selma, the proper protocol was done. The director has to check the gun right, and so the armorer has it first, ad has it first, assistant director. Everybody looks at and they bring it over to me to look at, and I remember looking at it. It It was like, I don't even know what I'm looking I said, I don't And in that moment, I said, I don't know what I'm looking at. I can't keep this crew safe. I don't

know what I'm looking at. I had to depend on other people to tell me if it's safe, and I don't depend on stuff like that. I said, never again. Either I'm gonna learn about guns, which I'm not, or we're not gonna have guns. So now anything that I've done, when they see anything that I've done, there are guns that they're fake. Guns that look like real. It does not have a real chamber or any mechanism in it.

You can have a gun that's actually looks like a gun on the outside and has no mechanism on the inside, not even for a blank There's no reason to do it. So that's why that is so maddening and heartbreak. And I could cry right now that this woman literally shot in the stomach in a rehearsal. I a rehearsal for people who fail to do the job that keeps each other safe. And I really I'm not even you know, sugarcoating the fact people were wrong, unprofessional that should never happen,

multiple people on that set. I mean, that was just flagrants ignorant behavior. It's it's it's it's astounding, it's angers you. And I think it's going to change our industry because the cruise are now going to be like, we don't want it right, and director is going to say we don't want it, and it has to be that way. It has to change. You got me wondering based off what you said, she have to check the gun that

ultimately killed her. She knows she's a director of photography of it should check the check the guy and um, but that director was shot so I don't know what was happening. All I know is unfathomable. I mean, it's just it's just heartbreak. But yes, I'm just saying people should know. There hasn't been a shooting death on a set since Brandon Lee. That's two decades ago. Do you know how much film and TV has made around the world.

That's how safe we are. Like, one of the safest places to be in the world is a film set, whether it's for COVID, whether it's for anything going on because the film. So let me just say this, it's like a small town a film set. There is a mayor that'll be me. There's a hospital that will be the medic there's a gardener that would be the greensman.

There's a restaurant that's crafty like there is there is someone that does there's there's a mechanic, there's a literally you carry the little community with you wherever you shoot, and everyone's looking out for each other and it is very safe. So when people hear that that happen that it's not us, that's not our industry, that's not what we that's not the way we move. Well, thank you for joining us today. Always a pleasure. Thank you for

coming in. I appreciate it. Black and white, Yeah, Colin Black, I'm like, all right, well, it's Ava Duvenai, It's the Breakfast Club. Good boy listen. Oh all right, So I'm gonna update you guys on loving hip hop Miami because I'm sure neither one of you all been watching it right, not at all? All right. Well, Ace Hood's wife Shyla Marie is defending her decision to keep her retreat. She has an unruly retreat. She's keeping it for a black women only. Now. She sat down at Nary, who is

Nori's wife. Noriega at with Nary at her juice bar, and they had a whole discussion about her. Princess Love was there as well. And here's how it sounded. When I asked you about the retreat, You're like, oh, I don't want you to get offended, but it's only for you know black woman. I guess just the way you said it, it kind of like threw me off bar.

Thank you for bringing it to me in the way that you did that you even felt some type of way because you and I did just me and I also have empathy for the way that you feel so I was just protecting my brand, and I can see where it kind of came off wrong to you. If you are a pro black sometimes people assume that it means you're anti something else, and it's not true. I love women period, all right. So a lot of people

were talking about this on social media. Now, Sheila Marie, of course this is her event, so she's able to have it. However, she wanted to retreat for black women who have shared experiences, and you know, Nary was right, it was all right to feel how she felt too. She felt a little uncomfortable with not being invited, did and whatever. So that, but that ended up having this

big debate on social media about it. Now you shouldn't I don't know if you should be offended about it not being invited to you know, something that's not for you. If it's a black woman only retreat, then it's a black women only retreat. What's the problem with that? Then I saw people on social media saying, well, Princess Love was invited and she's half black and Filipino, but she's black, like she's half black and half Filipino. And people were saying, well,

why did you invite Princess love. It just got really crazy, but I do like that they handled They handled it in a very respectful manner. How they addressed and spoke to each other, and they each had their point of view, and it feels like they're going to move forward. But it was an interesting conversation, all right. Now, French Montana has responded to somebody on Twitter and they were using squid game to set up a joke about French Montana.

It says, for the next game, you need to name five French Montana songs without features, and French Montana actually responded and name some. Can y'all do that? Yeah? Name five? I mean I'm from the yolks. Of course I can't, but yeah, I mean, French has put up records by yourself. You got everything's a go, you got ain't worry about nothing. And then I know a bunch because I'm you know, listening, I can't tell your name too. I could name a

bunch of others, like I'm waiting for five. You said you said you couldn't your laptop And I'm not even trying to insult French but I don't even I don't even to be honest with you, I don't even know why this matters. Yeah, but he got he got a bunch of songs by himself, but his his major hits have autists on him. Pop that has autists on him, No, I love pop as that something going on. Unforgettable has sweetly on his great records have features on it, but

he makes records without him, all right now. French Montana then responded, they got amnesia like I didn't give them chins, drugs, little Dirk and Harry fraud. They got amnesia like me and Max b didn't give them the biggest wave. Literally, and here is some French Montana right now. I really don't care. I don't really can't. Top three, top three, top three snipes all right? That was a French mona. He's the thing though, French always makes good music. Who

cares if his features on it or not? Like, why is that an issue? That's what I don't mind, songs of features. I don't see the problem. I think that record comes out tomorrow. So I've seen French yesterday putting all this stuff on Twitter, so I called him. I'm like, what's wrong with you? Man? You must be, you must be, you must be. You're about to drop a missile I said, you're about to drop a missile, and he says, yeah, you would call it a top three sniper and tell

him he about to drop a missile. Not even pause yourself. I'm gonna pause christ I don't pause myself with you every But also, what does the ladies French snipe got to do with his music? Like Top three snipe short? But folks are talking about music right now. We just put out a single. I don't think he's addressing people really care. I thought he was saying as an example of why people have gotten it sounds like to me, I'm gonna playing today. Okay, is there features on it

on this record? No? Okay, I just do. If you make good music, who cares if there's features? No, he's not. I'm sitting. They're trying to think of records that don't have features, like from all types of artists, that's what now you mean? Yeah, like collaps No Baby is probably the only one that doesn't really have too many features. Jake Cole Litle Baby or whether it's on Me or My Dog or okay, NBA young Boy. He does a lot of songs with no features. Okay. Um, Now, since

we talked about square Game. The creative Square Game says that he is not rich at all. He said, it's not like Netflix is paying me a bonus. He just had to stick to whatever the contract was, so he said that's how he got paid according to the original contract. He also said working on that show was so stressful that he lost sixteenth. He said it was physically mentally an emotional sixteeth draining. Did you just lose yours? No, I'm like, I'm pregnant. That's the mad thing. I don't know.

But how do he lose sixteen? He said, I kept having new ideas and revising the episodes as we were filming, so the amount of work multiplied. He was just stressed out. He said, it was just physically stressed out. As far as the second season A Square Game, could he negot she ate more money? He said, of course, there's talked. That's inevitable because it's such a success. I'm considering it, he said, I have a very high level picture in my mind, but I'm not going to work on it

straight away. There's a film I really want to make. I'm thinking about where to do first, and he's gonna talk to Netflix about game. Can do a sequel to Squid Game. Absolutely, I'm sure that's the plan, but not with the same character though, Like I don't want to see I don't want to sport. No, why this guy got all his money? So what you're gonna do? Now? Get already double back? He could be but that's what oh man? Yeah, but why would he want to be here?

Why would you get off the plane to come back? That's my point. He feels like he about to go do some vigilante superhero type of stuff, and don't nobody want to see that? All right? I want to try to take the people over. Maybe he'd be the new cop. He's the one that's gonna try to infiltrate the system. He better mind his business. But that's why I said

Squid Game would work if it was always new characters. Correct, Like imagine if they did Squid Game other places like now those people who they come to America to do it? You know what I mean, go to the hood. And I'm serious. I'm not even joking, like you could switch it up, that's all I'm saying. Yeah, all right, that a word? All right, Well are you giving your donkey too? Ah man? We need assistant director the movie Russ David Hawes to come to the front of the congregation. We're

like to have a word with him. Did you get the new development yesterday? Let's talk about it all right, we'll get to that. Next is to breakfast club. Good morning, So breakfast club, your mornings will never be the same. Everybody's talking about TikTok right now, even sports fans. Now, Charlemagne, you've seen this. Why are you talking to me about football and trying to show me TikTok because your team is on there, their fans are on there, the players

are on there. This is where the real talk is happening. There's like literally everything you could think of right now on TikTok. You just gotta see it. Donkey of the Day democrat, So being Dunky of the day a little bit of a mixed club like an the other day. Now, I've been called a lot in my twenty three years, but Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Wowy Today for Thursday October twenty eight, go to the assistant director of the movie Russ David Halls. Now, if you

haven't heard because you're busy, it's understandable. But there was a tragic, senseless murder on the set of the movie Russ, when actor Alec Baldwin accidentally shot dead cinematographer Helena Hutchins Okay rust in peace to her, sending her family healing energy, and wounded the director on the set of the Weston film Russ. Now, accidents happen, Tragic accidents happened, and this

was a tragic accident. But when you find out these situations probably could have been prevented, but someone, namely David Halls, was irresponsible. See you heard Queen Able to Do Do Nay on the Breast Club Last Hour, and she spoke on the safety precautions and protocol that go along with checking a gun on set. Let's listen. But the reason why I don't have guns on my set is because during summer, the proper protocol was done. The director has to check the gun and so the armorer has it first, ad

has it first, assistant director. Everybody looks at and they bring it over to me to look at. And I remember looking at I was like, I don't even know what I'm looking I said, I don't And in that moment, I said, I don't know what I'm looking at. I can't keep this crew safe. I don't know what I'm looking at. I had to depend on other people to tell me if it's safe. Proper protocol is the director has to check the gun, she said, the ad has

to check it. A d would be David Hall in this case, also the director would have to check it. I don't know if the director checked it because in this case the director got shot. But we do know, okay, that in this case the checking of the gun did go to David Hall. Well, David Hall dropped the ball. Is clear not all safety protocols were follow it on set, and David admitted to it. Let's go to CNBC with

Shepherd Spief for the report. Please. Assistant director who handed Alec bald when that loaded gun on the movie set admitted to investigators that he didn't check the revolver carefully enough. Investigators say when they asked the armorer about live Ammo on the set, she responded, no live Ammo is ever kept on set. But today the Santa Fe County Sheriff said it appears it was a real bullet in Baldwin's revolver that killed the film's cinematographer. It struck her in

the chest. According to investigators before hitting the director who was standing behind her. The district attorney says she will prosecute if there's evidence of a crime, but she says right now it's too early to determine whether anyone will face charges. New court documents revealed an interview with assistant director David Halls and armorer Hannah Gutierrez, who told investigators that on that day she checked the dummies referring to

the ammunition and ensured they were not hot rounds. She described locking up the firearms in a safe during a break, but during lunch, she stated the ammo was left on a cart on the set, not secured. Halls told investigators when Hannah showed him the firearm before continuing rehearsal, he could only remember seeing three rounds. He advised he should have checked all of them, but didn't and couldn't recall if she spun the drum. I mean, you know, one

times an accident, but this happened before guess what. David Hall was fired in twenty nineteen when he was an assistant director on the movie Freedom's Path. A gun unexpectedly discharged and during a sound crew member the production company Rocket Soul Studios told CNN that now, remember when David said she doesn't want guns on her set because he doesn't even know what she's looking at. Clearly, David Hall doesn't know what he's looking at either. Thank god the

crew member wasn't killed. And at the time David Hall was very remorseful for the events and understood the reasons he was fired. Well, clearly he didn't learn from that mistake two years ago. The best apology has always changed behavior. But two years later, David, what did you change? Okay, what did you adjust if two years ago your negligence caused someone to get shot and two years later your negligence caused someone to get shot and killed, And clearly

you are not learning from the lessons life is teaching you. Okay. I want to know why is there live ammunition period on these sets? Like why why are there live ammunition on the set at all? For what? Somebody please call me to the reasons why? You know? I don't know. But David All, you got blood on your hands in

a real, real way, all right. The fact you said you have showed the gun before rehearsal, you could only remember seeing three rounds, and you admitted you should have checked all of them, but didn't and you couldn't recall if you spun the drum. This is a prime example of when someone's irresponsibility becomes your responsibility because someone is dead, another is shot, and this isn't the first time. Is in the first time David has been this irresponsible and

caused something like this to happen. I'm not here to judge, I'm not here to prosecute. I'm just here to remind you all of this quote by George Matthew Adams. Negligence is at the bottom of all DK and DKA always starts by showing little signs, all warnings. There is nothing quite so easy as to neglect, and nothing quite so difficult as to repair that negligence. Negligence always carries a high price. It costs nothing to avoid it. Please let me remind give David Hall the biggest he haw he

haw he ha stupid motherfuck? Are you dumb? All right? Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. That's sad, sad case of a very sad all right. Up next is ask ye eight hundred five eighty five one oh five one If you need relationship advice, any type of a device call ye now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, What what what? What? What you gonna know? Baby mama issues sneed some words of wisdom. All up now for asking eight hundred five eight five one oh five one

We are the Breakfast Club. It's time to ask ye Hello. Who's this? This is Michelle from Virginia. Michelle, what's your question for you? So? Yeah, I work for my parents and my stepdad and my mother. We have group home business and my stepdad is a lot of a penis. He's making it very difficult, doesn't

respect my professionalism. We've gotten to a custom each other out to the point where I don't want to work for the business anymore. And I'm loyal to my mother, but it's just a little too stressful. And I've been working for them for about a year full time now, and it's resulting in me not spending time my family, not going to my parents home just because I don't want the interaction. And he's just gone too far and

I'm just not sure what to do. Girl. To keep your own peace, sometimes you got to step away from that family business and handle your own business. Okay, you cannot be putting yourself in a situation where I understand your loyalty to your mom. I'm sure it's stressful for her too to have the two of your going at it and beefing. So you got to do what's best

for you. Don't put yourself in a predicament that you don't have to be in, and you know, do something that makes you happier, because all rgueing with family and doing all of that with your stepfather and him not in respect for it toward you. If this was a job that wasn't somebody who you were related to, would you stay No. I would have left a long time ago.

Ye think getting older, and I know within the next ten years somebody has to step in, and I'm an only child and then so I didn't want to leave the responsibility to god knows who. But it just really is a lot and I'm kind of over it, right. I mean, if you're over it, honestly, you can't do something and you got to protect your own peace, and so don't do it and your mom should understand that. And if she needs your help with anything, let her know. I always be there to support you if you need me,

but I just can't work there anymore. Okay, okay, that makes sense. Thank you so very much. Y'are welcome. You could always be a consultant, come in from time to time, but you ain't got to be there full time. That's true. He's not paying me though, I can't consult No, no, you have to get paid for that, right, Okay, all right, say thank you so much, No problem, all right? Ask ye eight, don't drink five eight, five one or five one if you need a relationship advice, any type of advice.

He e, Now it's a breakfast club. Good morning. Did some real advice with Angela? Ask ye morning? Everybody is dj envy Angela ye, Charlomagne, na guy. We are the breakfast club within the middle of ask ye Hello, who's this? Good morning? Listen? Marie, Hey, Marie? How are you feeling today? I'm feeling good. Okay, what's your question? So my question is how I want to know how do I have a conversation with my more vessel. I was molested growing

up from the age of seven, so the age of seventeen. Wow. And it was by my mother's boyfriend, and she did end up marrying her even her aster knowing the situation, Like everything she knew about even been support before charge has been dropped because I was extra lie and this is a lot that went on and me myself. When

I turned nineteen, I decided to give myself therapy. I would never help when I was young, so I decided to do it on my own because I had a point where I just didn't be come at all, and she would just trying to keep him separate as that's as possible. But when after therapy I went for like four or five years, I just decided and I decided to speak to him. But it was like he had control over me, and I didn't want him to have that power. So I did decide just sat and say

hi and by. But now my mom just thinks it's so paid to call me because to me about his day or to tell me things about him, and I just don't know how to have like that conversation and let her know, like just because she sees that I grew from the situation, it's not that I care about him or anything, And it's just trickling over into things in my personal life, right where I being that she married this man and he disrespected me. He disrespected her,

but he committed a crime. He didn't just disrespect you, He also committed a crime that has forever changed you. Yes, And I don't think she clearly understands that all the way. When it comes to me and her relationship, we we're okay, we can talk. I love my mom, and but it's just hard for me to let her know, like I don't want to be having conversations about this man. And now I do notice that the person my own relationship. I allow people I allowed mental disrespect me in another

way because I've seen it growing up. Right, If that makes any sense, Well, I encourage you to continue going to therapy. The problem that your mom has is not with you, it's with herself, So she's got to I mean, I would hope that she would seek help as well, because the fact that she would choose to continue a relationship with this person who has permitted horrific acts towards you says a lot about her and you know, and

her own responsibility in this. And I try to see that part because you know, comes to tweets I had typened on her when she was young. So I think because she explains it like I didn't get help and I'm okay, and I'm like, you're not okay because obviously just allowed this to happen. It's a psychle that she's going through, and if there's a way that you guys can go together, that you can get her some help as well. But I think first and foremost, you've got

to take care of you. You're the priority for yourself and you owe it to yourself. And I love the fact that you survived this, that you saw a therapy, that you're working through it and dealing with it. But in no way should you feel obligated to have to speak to this person, to have to have any type of relationship with this person. And your mom definitely needs to, uh, you know, seek some help as well. But it's the issue is not you as her okay, because sometimes you know,

everybody when you have people you are prussing. My friend mom was like pushing some siblings like just get over you better down for everything, But they don't understand that molding me into the person that I am today, Like I don't allow men do things for me because sound like she's stood in there for sometimes money reasons or just different reasons, but that molding me into the person I am today. So I just sometimes go back and forth, like Sid, I just let this go. Am I dragging

it too long? There's no such thing as dragging it too long. Somebody did something to you you were you know, and you're still dealing with the after effects of that, and who knows when you won't deal with it because I can't say that's something that will ever go away. But it is something that you that you can be strong about, that you can work through, that you can deal with, that you can continue to seek help for it,

and there's nothing wrong with that. It's it is shows it does you a lot of strength that you're able to confront this. Okay, great, so you think it's good. Should I like try to have a conversation with her, maybe us both going to I think that would definitely benefit both of you. Okay, I'll try to make my bad conversation right. And I know it's not an easy one to have and some people are very reluctant to

do that. So you know it could be in your approach and let her know as a support to you and because you love her, that's what you think would be beneficial for both of you. Okay, thank you so much. Okay, you're welcome. Ask Ye eight on drink five eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship advice and any type of advice, you could always hit ye. Now we got rumors all the way.
