He's Ambi Charlo Migne. The guy Preas did the plane in this Thursday. And your mic sounds like trash. I don't know what's wrong with your mic? What's wrong with my mi? I don't know. Yes, it sounds like you're like fifty feet away. It's a
little muffled. All right. Well, happy late anniversary, djmb oh, thank you man. I had a wonderful day yesterday with the wife. You know, we absolutely positively did nothing, which was the best thing. Shout out to Matt the mortgage guy who's been on the UM Show a couple of times talking about mortgage. He actually paid for you know last night. Yeah no, no, I wish he paid for a mortgage, but he actually paid for dinner last night. So we got a restaurant out here in Jersey. It's
called Buka Seafood, and they delivered everything. Uh. They had shrimp, they had steak, rice, uh, so many different vegetables. It was. It was very very good, very thoughtful. So um, I was actually gonna go get some soulful but that came right before so I didn't have to go get any food, so that I was very very nice to me and the wife. We ate, We watched some of our favorite TV shows, which are anything with home improvement and people
finding homes, buying homes, doing stuff for cheap. So we watched that all night long, and then last night, you know, we shot for maybe maybe baby number six, maybe seven and eight, maybe maybe triplets. I don't know, but we
had a great man. We had that is a very thoughtful present when you give people right now like a meal or a gift cards, you know, for Mother's Day, I sent a bunch of my friends mother's gift cards so that they could get Uber Eats or they could get door Dash, depending on what's more popular where you live. That's a really nice present, just to put that out there for people, because I know people are celebrating birthdays
and things like that. And if you can give somebody a gift card to just order food and be like, dinner's on me, that's a nice thing to do. Absolutely that. And what I also did was, you know, if you follow me, my wife, she loves bags. Most women don't do bags and shoes. So what I did was I got a favorite, her favorite bag, and we drew it out, and I made the kids color one and I colored the other, and we put it in the box and we gave it to us. So she loved that too.
You know what I did yesterday, I was well, first of all, and I know you already told everybody v that we won a Gracie Award for lip service. Yes, even though it wasn't supposed to be that information wasn't supposed to be out yet, they did just make the announcement yesterday you know what's funny, I've seen that yesterday and I was like, did I congratulating already? I couldn't remember. I was like that and that information was embargoed. I knew about it, but we weren't supposed to announce it.
But I was like, okay, but m yeah, So yesterday they made the announce me Angie Martinez one one, Nacy Nash one, Gail King, and the Gracie Awards are by the Alliance for Women in Media Foundation, so they celebrating on a programming creative for women. It's a big deal. So we were excited about that. So I had a drink yesterday and what I realized is that I haven't been drinking that much and I'm definitely yes from one drink, so yes, So that's what I did yesterday, and I
was like, woah, this is too much. And then I watched Insidious. I don't know if you ever saw that movie. No, I haven't. I was like, let me watch a horror movie because you know, I love horror movies. So I watched Insidious and that's that was my night. And then I was scared to go to bed. Yeah, you know when g and I did that Jamaican party was supposed to be in Jamaica for our flyaway, and we did our own party, and you know, we had Jamaican everything.
We you know, hat Jamaican backgrounds, We had pools, drinks. I had a little drink that day, and I was twisted. I was like, how am I so twisted? So fast? But right? Because I normally only drink if I go out or if I'm around people. I don't like sit at home by myself and have a drink. So since we haven't been going anywhere, I've been pretty sober. Right, Well, let's get the show cracking. It is Mental Health Awareness Month, and Doctor Jess will be checking and Doctor Jess will

You can get on the phone all morning long and she will help you with your our problems. All right, but let's get the show cracking. Frontage News what we're talking about, Yes, let's talk about
schools reopening. Donald Trump and doctor faulty have two different views. All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to breakfast club. Good morning. How do is dj Envy angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy we are the breakfast Club. I just want to tell you my son just scared the issue out of me. I walked in the kitchen right fast, and he's in the family room sleeping, and
I'm like, what the huh is too? There's a spider in his room and a spider crawled on him like a day ago, and he will not go back in his room. Now. This kid is damn near five ten, one hundred and thirty pounds, lift weights every day, fully buffed, runs every day, but the scared of a little spider, he will not go back. Racknophobia is real. You never crazy. He is sleeping. I'm like, bro, you don't want to go back in the room. He's like, nope, be diesel
little hell get bit by the wrong spider. It's still a rap. You're right. Well, let's get in some front page news. Where were starting you? Well, let's start with Donald Trump. Now, he didn't like some of the comments that doctor Fauci made where he discussed opening up too quickly just as a refresher. Here's what doctor Fauci said. My concern is that a states or cities or regions disregard to a greaterness of degree the checkpoints that we
put on our guidelines. There is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you might not be able to control, which in in fact, heterodoxically will set you back, not only leading to some suffering in death that could be avoided, but could even set you back on the road to trying to get economic recovery. Now, doctor Fauci also suggested that school is open cautiously in some places, not even in the fall, and when asked about the risk and the benefits of that, he said,
it's obviously very difficult. But he said, I don't have a good explanation or solution for the problem of what happens when you close schools and it triggers a cascade of events. Now Donald Trump reacted to that and actually disagreed with doctor Fauci. Luck he wants to play all sides of the equation. But we're opening our country. People wanted to open. The schools are going to be open, and Purduers opening and others are opening, and they're all
announcing it. These are young people, these are students, young students. They are a great ship. They're in a great ship. Now, will you have an incident to one out of a million, one out of five hundred, that will something happen? Perhaps, but you know you can be driving to school and some bad things can happen too. So no, we're gonna open our country in the country, guys, I've told you it's in the open country. Yeah. The economy have to Yeah, they are. The economy is an omelet. We're the eggs.
They have no problem breaking a few eggs to get the economy back on track it is, which I think it's crazy because they got the money to hold people down and make sure everybody's okay, to just opens back up and save a lot of lives. But instead they're like, nah, we're gonna open this up and pretty much if you die,
you die. That's how they're looking at it. That's it. Well, they do have to figure out what the kids learning, though for younger kids, I think the issue is how do we make sure and now I know they've been doing virtual classes, there's been some issues with that also. They just have to figure out how to adjust to that. I mean, yeah, you can't un tell it's a vaccine and some type of treatment, Like, yes, people are going
to get sick when they get back out there. And doctor Folgi does have to stop playing both sides though, because he seems to like really speak truth to power in one second and Trump lean on him a little and then he'll he'll walk it back because I'm like, Okay, should we open up cautiously or should we stay on lockdown? Which one is it? You've been going back and forth for that the past couple of weeks, right, And they are also saying that coronavirus could just be around and
may never go away. According to the World Health Organization, they said it might just join the mix of different viruses that kill people around the world every year, and it might just become another virus in the community. That's fine, that's fine. If we have a vaccine though, that that's it. It'd be like the flu. A lot of people die from the flu, but least it can be controlled a little bit. We just need to be able to control because right now there's no vaccine, there's no killer, there's
nothing that can help us. Well, yeahdat to Mike Ryan and who is the executive director for the World Health Organization, said it's HIV hasn't gone away, and he said, I'm not comparing the two diseases, but I think it's important that we're realistic, I mean, totally different with it's actually transmitted disease. You use needles, I guess, you know, a
little easier to contain. I would think, right, a lot of and something that you could just something that we don't even know how we catch, to be honest with you, easily transmittable. All right, Well that is your front page news. Get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need to vent, hit us up right now, phone line to open this to breakfast club. Good morning the breakfast club. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're man,
you're from you on the breakfast club. You got something on your mont? Hello, who's this Georgia? What's up? An? Get it off your chest? I'm always just called them to pay man, Like you know, I disagree with what y'all we're saying. Man, you know, I think it is time that we, you know, give the economy back up
and movement. You know, I think that we don't, you know, the money that they're taking out to give to us, and the stimulus checks and all these things, like I feel like, you know, that's money that we're gonna have to pay back. So it's not really, that's not true. I mean, I'm spreading that lie. That's not true. You do not have to pay stimulus money back. That's not true. That's not absolutely the national bet though, you know what
I'm saying, that's not true. Is it not true? Why would we have to pay it back in the national debt? Who told you that? Where'd you get that from? We're saying the national debt has to be paid back? That's what national bet. We have to open the economy. Lord. But let me ask you a question. Would you would you prefer? Would you prefer national debt or your or your mother and father die? I mean, I agree, you know, I mean, okay, So you can't agree on both sides.
So it's it's either the national debt or or your mother and father die, your grandparents die, or your friends die. People are dying. So if we have to owe some money because we already have it, that who cares about money? People are more concerned about money than lives. All this money means nothing. That car that you're driving, that clothes that you'll really mean nothing about my mother, my father,
or even hunk my kids. People. People were carrying about money because that's why we need to open the economy, because people need to be back to work. People need to be able to make money. I mean, you know these governments, you see the government is moving coming to get everybody is stimil a check at twelve hundred dollars. People aren't working right now. They need money. I totally understand the economy is opening back up, and once you get in, the economy is and people are the eggs,
a few eggs abody getting broken. People are the economy. The people are the eggs. The economy is the Omlie you're an egg, then let me ask you a question. But who dies? Who dies more? Who dies more? What community dies more? From this? I mean either way, either way economically or through the virus or communities are gonna
get hurt the most, right, black and brown communities. And I just think that there's no one, one size fits all answer for this because there's some people who want the economy to open back up because they are suffering financially, they're suffering in different ways. And there's people who is more comfortable that are fine with the economy being closed, and then there's people who are okay to make sacrifices.
It just depends. Everybody's in a different situation. So there's nothing you can do that everybody will be pleased about it. I ain't gonna front. I want it, like I want the economy to open back up, but not not, not if it has to do it losing my parents or with this new virus that's killing kids. It may not be your pathot, it may not be your parents, but it's gonna be somebody's parents, somebody's, it's gonna be It's
gonna be somebody period. That's why when you talk about the economy not being the egg, No, the people are the eggs. The economy is the omelet. You're right, Eggs make the omelet, and some eggs are gonna get broken to make this goddamn omelet. And you know what, I don't want it to be my eggs. How about that? Neither? I don't want it to be nobody, nobody, eggs. No, Hello, who's this? This is one lead from my asphell of North Carolina, Willie, I'm assume you on one leg. Uh yeah, okay,

You're right, And the reason why I'm bringing it up because they're battling right now, right and nobody knows that up. And I'll tell you what he sweat was definitely smoking. So anyone not battling smoke. He said, he artists a battle right now, he said. Nobody brought that up. Nobody brought it up

Also, I want watch people to come to the congregation because they thought it would be good to put collar greens on the sub and I thought it would be too. But and I told much that's not so fun. Where Carolina has collar green substandances, I think twich now is. But
I kind of think there's something. Yes, listen, there's nothing to God forward. Please don't go try watch people, please stop putting the greens on the sublease all right, one lega willy a lot of things that he just wanted to get it off his chest. That's the true definition one leg WILLI bust your ass at Hop Scotch stupid, get it off your chests eight hundred five eight five one on five one. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
the breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up, wake y'all. You're trying to get it off your chest because your man or black. We want to hear from you on the breakfast But hello, who's this dre what I've getting off your chests? Bro? Well, how y'all doing this morning? Man? I just want to say, God bless y'all, thank you.
And I want to say, and I want to say, man, stop giving the police a reason to kill us, kill us as young black man and as black man general, and I want to say, like, um, basically, when you see the horse, don't go smack it on the butt so I can kick you in the face. Who's smacking horse is on the as I'm just saying, there's a metaphor, don't go, don't go, don't go, don't go, don't go kick the gate and the behind and then expect not
to bite you. Well, you know a lot of times people are minding their business, not doing anything wrong, sometimes even in their own home. Everything that's wrong, there's no there's no there's no wait with that. But I'm just saying, as a black man, like, don't go and tagonize it, because that's just given what they want. I haven't seen anybody and Brianna Taylor didn't the antagonize nobody. She got
killed by police. That's that's crazy. That's crazy. And I know exactly what you're talking about that story and counterbum me the tears a little bit because that's totally wrong. Absolutely, But what I'm saying is, do what the mind they do them from where I'm from running from the police. They shot him down because he was going around the corner that he that all they wanted to him to do stop, but he decided to run, and they gave them no right to do what they did him. Yeah,
but you don't shoot. You don't shoot man just because Yeah, you don't, you don't. But just don't. Don't just stop and don't don't don't just stop giving them a reason to hurt them. Scared of the cops. Your your first instinct might be let me just get out of here. I don't know, don't want to get shot. I grew up basically a very bad neighborhood. The police say, stopped, you put your hands up, and the stop. So so basically, you want people to just stop being black. Don't what
you should stop being black? Is that? Yeah? You know that. You know that's why they're getting You know, that's why these people are getting kill right, I know, I know you. I know you've seen them interact with white people differently than they did. Yes, yes, you're right, like the kid in the who was running, who was in the hot speech chase. What do you say, they ain't they're not gonna they ain't gonna tsch me. It's easy, mom. Okay, I can understand what you're saying, but that still should
I still shouldn't be a death. That still shouldn't be a death sentence. That's not a death, that's not that's not for death. But what I'm saying is, don't tagonize. Okay. I think y'all just trying to get my blood pressure up this morning. You keep it moving. Thank you so much. You have a great day. Y'all know I ain't have my green tea yet. You know what I'm saying. I think y'all just calling up here that you know my nurse pick up a car. Somebody gonna tell me about
five g morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Ye, Charlemagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk about this million dollars donation. Listen, oh Gosport guys with angel Angela's report with the Breakfast Club. Robert Craft, who owns the Patriots, actually donated the Super Bowl ring from twenty seventeen, and that is from Michael
rubens all in challenge. A lot of celebrities have donated items and The initiative has raised more than forty one million dollars so far, and that particular item has already hit over one million dollars in bidding. Wow, I wonder why people give away stuff like that, Like that seems like stuff that really really really really means something to them. A super Bowl ring for a good cause. And he has a couple of them. He's an owner. He has a couple of them. MEAs that. And remember this, he
always make another one. He is the owner. Yes, he can make another one. Yeah, make another ring. You can make another ring. I guess, well, maybe he's selling the duplicate. Who knows. I just feel like that's so sentimental. That's something that really really means something. That's a super Bowl ring. You can't. You don't just get those every day. It's for a good cause, and they do. They got those
like damn every day. And then Rabbit Craft and Michael Rubin are really good friends, so I'm sure he knew it would be helpful for that, and you know, it's a great it's great thing. Though it's over a million dollars. I think that's the most for an item so far, right, because we saw the eight hundred thousand dollars for the Tom Brady uh that somebody paid one hundred thousand dollars for.
So now that's over a million all right now. Kevin Hart, he's talking about this whole coronavirus and how he's on the edge, and he told the story about a fan that wanted to take a picture with him. Here's what he said. I go to the gas station, I get off the pump. Gas people pull up, They saw me. They jump out, Oh my god, Kevin Hart, let us get a picture. I jumped back. WHOA. I said, y'all got no mask, go on, no gloves, no nothing. I don't know what went down in my mind, but in
my mind this was the movie Contagent. That's the fucking mindset that this craziness has put me in. It. He's absolutely right, if you're gonna take a picture, you're gonna have to do a selfie from six feet away, sir oh Man. Yeah, now that's not the time to really be trying to like take pictures with people and do things like that, and people say you mask, you gotta
wear your man as. I mean, you know, people understand, like you know, a couple people ask to take a picture when I was at grocery shopping the other day and everybody wore their masks. They understood when I went grocery shopping, I made them stand six feet away. And that's a great question too. I don't I'll be trying to figure out how they know it's me and a mask as well. I don't understand that. I'm like, I can't stick up no stores if things ever get bad,
all right. In addition to that, Kevin hat is talking about what's gonna happen at casinos in the future. They have built glass cubbies around each seat, so you sit at your seat and plexi glass around you and the same for the next person. All right, that'll be interesting. Part of the fun of gambling too is being social at the table. Yeah, talking and talking ish and drinking and everybody cheering each other on. That's gonna be a little a little difficult. But I'm not a big gamble anyway.
So I've seen blackjack table and talking to other people and joking around and all right, I got you, all right, I took one for the team. It's fun. I've seen designs like that for restaurants as well. The glass cubicles. I've seen that for restaurants and jims the designs for the Yeah, all right, Now, the Michael Jackson Musical MJ has been moved to Spring twenty twenty one. So they were supposed to start previews and all of that soon, but now they're going to start previews next March. It's
an eight month postponement because of coronavirus. Those new dates were just announced yesterday, so that is going to start March eighth, twenty twenty one. I'm definitely going to see that. You know, I love a Broadway play. So Broadway, as you all know, we talked about this, it's shut down, no plays until September at this point. All right. And Netflix has put out the trailer for the Jeffrey Epstein
docu series. It's called Filthy. It's a four part series about Jeffrey Epstein and how he was a pedophile and all the women who fell victim to his sex trafficking, ring, their stories from the survivors and all of that. Here is the trailer, The Disgrace for the Antier. Jeffrey Epstein is dead. It was stunningly rich. He had a twenty million dollar house, his own private island in the Caribbean.
How's a nickname the pedophile Island. In two thousand and five, the poem Beach Police Department received the reports of young women going to and from his residence. There was some ever revolving tour of girls. Welsh was under age when the school was brought other girls too. This is a typical, much bigger Iceberg. Take him down, Take everybody down. You know. I thought to myself, Man, they made that movie fast.
He just died. But when you think about it, if you know you're gonna kill somebody, you could shop the studios. They were shopping this before they killed him. Oh, I mean before he killed himself. But they definitely was shopping this before he died. This is quick. Or you know, they might have started filming a docusearies even while he was alive and then he ended up. I know what I'm saying. They could have did that later. It could have been them interviewing people over a period of time
even before that happened. And it's a series of interviews, So I could see this having happened like pretty quickly. Either way, when you know you're gonna kill somebody, that's a great that's a great way to shop it okay, Like, look, we got this great documentary about this Larry Fsteam guy. He's like a world class, you know, tough kind of file sex trafficker, whatever the hell his name is. He's a world class pedophile sex trafficker, and we're gonna kill
him and make it look like he killed himself. Who wouldn't buy that? I would, all right. And there's also going to be a Netflix film that's going to be on the USA Gymnastics sexual abuse scandal. So that's going to be coming to that's the former team doctor Larry Nassar and the allegations against him and the failures of the USA Gymnastics to protect their athletes. Also, it's called athlete A and that will be on Netflix on June
twenty fourth. If there's drama, if there's a traumatic, real life story out there, they will turn it into a scripted event, aren't they, or a documentary or something. Well. I think it affected so many different people and how could something like this happen? So I think it's a good way for people to understand all the details of the investigation. And a lot of times, yeah, I just
don't like people profiting all other people's trauma. I really don't like it's like Jesus Christ, Like, there's a lot of other things that they could be putting in production. Well, that's a really victim. They definitely get money, That's all I'd be caring about. I'm like, do the victims get money from this when they do this? But I feel like I do that. The documentary will center on Athlete A, who was the first gymnast to report Larry Narstar's abuse
to USA Gymnastics, and that's Maggie Nichols. She's a former member of the national team and she went on to have a great career at the University of Oklahoma. In twenty eighteen, she came forward and identified herself as Athlete A, and after that, hundreds of fellow survivors came forward. So it was a lot of money, man, mytory, I gotta relive this pain. Money. If Maggie's getting the check, cool, If Maggie's an executive producer, she got equity in it, great.
Other than that, you just profited off people's trauma. Well yeah, but these are important stories though to be told as well. So I don't know what the logistics are of how they worked it out behind the scenes, but I do believe it's an important story and I'll definitely be watching. All Right, Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Ye. Now when we come back, we got front page news. What we're talking about. We're gonna give you some details on what's
going on in different cities. As you know, everybody has a different city by city, state by state on what's happening with coronavirus on opening up and you know, things opening and shutting back down. So we'll tell you what they're doing as far as the stay at home order in different places. All Right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, Hey morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we
all the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get into small page news where we start with. All right, well, let's start with Wyoming. They're allowing restaurants, bars and theaters to open on Friday Friday, so that's tomorrow, under a new order that was signed by their governor. They said, we're trying to work our way safety safely to as normal
conditions as we can get. Tables will be limited to six people, but unlike most states with similar regulations, people from different households will be allowed to sit at the same table. Buffet service is not allowed, and tables must be separated by at least six feet. And Maryland, the governor is saying that he's working with DC and Virginia officials on the next stages, on the next steps for their state, and they said the area surrounding DC are
hotspots for COVID nineteen. They said, seventy percent of our infection rates are in four counties. I think fifty percent of it is in the two counties surrounding Washington. So they said, he spoke with both leaders on Friday and took their input into consideration as they're trying to figure out what they're gonna do as far as stage one reopening guidelines. So we should know about that soon. Now in May eighteenth, you still don't have to go out
just because things opening up, right. I don't think the government in need states understands how feel works. Y'all have no precautions and nothing in place to make your people feel safe. So why would they go, Well, you know what the thing isn't and you know a lot of people can defer their mortgage for three months, to differ their car notes for three months, but then what happens after that. That's why a lot of people are like,
I have to go out. Yeah, I could defer for three months, but then what happens on that fore month? I gotta pay. You know what happens on that foremonth for my carna. We happening on that fore month for a lot of my bills, I have to pay. So if they don't stretch that out, people have to go out. Well, in DC, they extended their stay at home order through June eighth, and Virginia is going to do a partial reopening starting tomorrow, with the Northern Virginia maintaining firmer restrictions.
On May eighteenth, eleven, DMV centers will reopen on an appointment only basis that select services like getting a license, vehicle registration, things like that. Mississippi they're gonna end suspension of evictions on June first, so they will end their temporary suspension on evictions, and they said, we have to recognize housing doesn't just happen, and it doesn't grow on trees.
We cannot suspend evictions forever. So you see The problem with that is is if people can't work and now you just want them to get back to work, I'm gonna get evicted. You know why, because three months I haven't paid. I'm just getting back in the workforce. How am I gonna pay? How am I gonna make that back up? You kick me out in the treat and then what I go from there? You're right? But when I say you don't have to go out work is
one thing that's essential. I'm talking about the restaurants and movie theaters that Lee first was talking about, and what a lot of these work, a lot of people working. If you, if you if you're working, if you, if you work there, I totally understand. I'm talking about people who just want to go out there for recreational purpose. You don't have to go to the restaurants, you don't have to go to the movie But I totally understand. If I work at a restaurant and you don't go,
I don't make money. But that's the whole point of why this opening up the economy so quick, it is probably not going to work, because what if people don't come out to support the economy, economy is still gonna go to there, they are still doing social distancing and trying to figure out ways to make it safer for you to be able to go to a restaurant. So
all right. California has ten counties moving into stage two of reopening according to the governor there, so seven counties will be moving into the next stage of reopening businesses. Right now, there's fifty eight total counties in that state, so ten of those will be moving into stage two. Another stay at home lockdown for three months La La Los Angeles, Larry, Okay, all right. The mayor of Detroit is saying that COVID nineteen numbers are dropping the fastest
in the country. So they said that's because a lot of the residents are wearing masks, a lot of them are social distancing. They said the state will expand testing starting today, so Detroit will be able to test two thousand residents a day with the prescription. They've also made testing available without a prescription to anyone over the age of sixty and so according to the mayor there, they are having the numbers dropping faster than anywhere else in
the US. And Florida the governor is saying that all professional sports are welcome for practicing and for playing. So they are welcoming you to come there. And Ayowa, they're lifting restrictions in all ninety nine counties. They said there, we can and must reopen our economy. We can restart a stable safe in a stable, safe and responsible way, and we can slow the spread, protect the health of Iowans and their livelihood, and protect the healthcare system in
the long run. So restaurants, fitness centers, retail stores, malls, they will be allowed to reopen. It should just finish the NBA season in Florida, But all the teams just go down there, you know what I'm saying, stayed on there for the next two or three months, however long it takes. Quarantine in Florida, and just you know, finish the NBA season there, all right. And one thing you may have noticed is that prices in the supermarket are soaring,
So a lot of things are getting more expensive. You know, for breakfast, egg prices went up sixteen point one percent last month, and cyrio went up, milk, bread, juice, everything, So keep in mind when you go to the supermarket. Meat prices went up three point three percent. I don't know, chicken went up five point eight percent, fish four point two percent, paper towel. I didn't know papertowel was too expensive. Paper towel is expensive. They know y'all got the extrave. Goodness,
y'all got the extra twelve in your pocket. They know. All right, well that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss Ye. Now, when we come back, it's Mental Health Awareness Month and doctor Jess we'll be checking in. We're gonna kick it with doctor Jess. See how can we can deal with a lot of anxiety, depression and more so, don't move, doctor Jess. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning.
Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We had a special guest on the line, Doctor Jess. Yes, and good morning, doctor Jess. Good morning. Congratulations on the new baby you're in law. Thank you a happy mother's day. It was your first Mother's day, so I know that was amazing. It was we were inside, but it was it was nice. How have you been maintaining your mental health, you know, with a new baby and this pandemic, Like, what have you
been doing to stay stay relatively sane. Oh yeah, Well, the biggest thing I do is I stay connected with my loved ones. I think one of the things that really is dangerous for people is loneliness, you know. And so even if you're surrounded by people, I know, some people are are um, staying at home, you know, with a lot of people, they're you know, they're extended family. But if you feel lonely, that can lead to a lot of problems with not only your physical health, but
your mental health. I've been staying connected. I do a lot of video calls with like my family, show the baby off, um and we do take we take a few walks, we wear the mask. We covered the baby up in that little you know, rain coming for the stroller, so we try to try to get some sunlight too. Y'all, y'all relationship with y'all child gonna be crazy though, because like y'all gonna be so close, because both of y'all are together with the baby all the time. In the
first few months. That's gonna that's actually gonna be a blessing. I received that. Thank you. My worries. If we don't get out of this soon, he's gonna be a little weird kid not able to deal with it, but it's still a baby. Now. What was it like giving birth during this time too? Because I know some people were scared about it. I've read a lot of articles about women who you know, nine months pregnant and they are a little concerns. So what was that process like for you?
Me and my husband law we actually have decided to do a home birth way before the pandemic. Yeah, so a part of it was just because we know the rates of you know, the black maternal death rates are very high in New York City, you know, a lot higher than across the country. And I knew from my experience in medicine that I did not want to be silenced in the hospital. I was worried about, you know, not really having my experience go the way I wanted it to. So we went that route and it ended
up being a very peaceful experience. You know. I had a midwife, my do love was there while I was amazing, and we just literally as soon as the baby was born, you know, a few hours, they check you do all of these other things, they leave, and it was kind of me. They just like turn the light off and let themselves out. Of your and everybody just goes home and and you're there. Wow. So there's no visiting hours, there's no you can't watch the baby now, this is
just strictly Wow. That's an amazing that's amazing. It was pretty amazing. It was it was so I definitely encourage people, you know, at home birth. Maybe isn't for everyone, but during this time, it's gonna be really important for people to to find some sort of support that's going to help them. Even if you're you know, if you're in the hospital and some hospitals aren't letting parents stay long. You know, you just want to kind of prepare yourself
mentally for what that will look like. But all births are good birth. You know, I was going to ask, you know, well, congratulations again and you have a new baby. But for some parent out there that have kids that are a little older, you know, what would you advise
to them for their mental health? I mean, because it has to be difficult to seeing their friends, to not being able to see their friends, and then you don't want them online all day long, you don't want them watching TV all day long, and you'll you know, concern constantly about how they thinking mentally, you know. Right, So, first thing that's going to be important for everyone is to maintain maintain a routine as much as possible. Right.
I think we all can fall into the slump of just staying in your pajamas all day, sleeping until whenever, staying up until whenever, you know, letting the TV put you to sleep. Really try to avoid that. And then I think for parents, it's going to be important to try to create an environment where they can talk about how they feel. I know I'm always saying that, talk about how you feel, talk about how you feel, but that's going to be so important. You know, family time
is going to be important. It's a big opportunity for people to do that. If you're having dinner, have dinner all together, don't do that stuff in front of the TV. Sit down and you know, at the table if you know, if you have one, but you can all gather around, do that and just invite your children to talk about how they're doing, you know, and don't don't tell them that what they're feeling isn't normal. Don't don't tell them
all they should get over that. Really encourage them to talk about how they feel and just normalize it, because, let's be honest, we don't really know how long this is going to last. And I think if you're honest about that with your children and just keep creating that space, they can at least feel safe in knowing that you hear them and that you're taking care of them. To jes what advice do you have for people who are experiencing a lot of stress and anxiety for financial purposes?
People have been furloughed, they've been laid off from work, they don't know how they're going to pay their bills. They've been just deferring payments, and then at some point they are going to have to make those payments, but maybe they don't know what type of job they'll have. What would you say as far as that, Yeah, I mean, that's that's going to be the really tough reality from
large scale disasters. We know that that there typically is an increase in the number of cases of anxiety depression PTSD, for example, with nine to eleven. So the reality is a lot of people are going to probably come out of this with some signs or symptoms of anxiety and maybe eating anxiety disorders. So it's very likely that that's what the person is going to experience. So my advice is to try to do your best to cope with it. You know, the sad reality is a lot of Americans
are unemployed right now. We're seeing the highest rates that we've seen in decades, and the reality is a lot of people will not be able to make make payment. So try to work with your support system to come up with a way to figure out which bills are going to be most important at A lot of companies are giving, you know, ninety days between bills, so try
to figure out who's doing that. You know, really really try to push through what you're feeling in terms of figuring out a plan and then coping with anxiety is going to be simple things like, you know, trying to make sure that you're getting some exercise in in the space that you're in your home, exercise, yoga, doing some deep breathing, talking about what you're feeling, don't hold it in. But this's a really tough time and I expect people
to really have a hard time. So you expect to see a rise in like just mental illness period after the coronavirus, well during the coronavirus and after absolutely so experts are saying that after we were even just during this or once we get through COVID nineteen, that we probably will see increases in anxiety, depression, loneliness because people are you know, isolating alone, and even you know, some people may we may see an increase in things like
domestic violence, child abuse because children are home instead of at school, and substance. These two people are using substances to code alcohol, marijuana. You know, they're using that a lot to try to get through this time, but that can also lead to problems down the road and even something called death by despair. You know, suicide rates are going up in terms of like we're seeing decisions do that more now because of all the stress that they're under.
An even longer term risk if somebody's drinking alcohol every single day to try to get through liver damage to be on their road can actually be contributed contributing to this death by despair that we're also seeing. All right, we have more with doctor Jess when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Potius, DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are. The Breakfast Club is Mental Health Awareness Month and we're still kicking it
with doctor jess Ye. What advice do you have for people who aren't able to properly grieve right now? Also, as you can see with funerals, there's a lot of limitations with that. We're seeing death where you can't even go to the hospital and visit somebody before they passed. So what kind advice would you get for people that are having problems with this whole grieving process and not really being able to experience that right now and they
need to. Yeah, that is another really difficult experience for people to have. What I recommend is really again leaning on your support to some of you your loved one and your family, your friends, using things like zoom. Obviously you can't hold a service over that, but what you can do is use that community to really just kind of honor that person the memory. You know, I know someone personally who you know their loved one pass away and they still haven't even been able to start the
burial or creation process. So it's very very devastating now, and I would just encourage people to really try to lean into their supports and be creative. You know, how can people get help? Because you know, usually it's easy you can go to your therapist, you can go to a past you can different places you can go. But now I'm stuck at the home and I might be dealing with anxiety, I might be dealing with depression. How do you advise people that get those type of health
Where can they go? Who can they see? Who can they call? Who can they zoom? You know? Absolutely, So you know, if you already are connected with a mental health professional, your therapist or psychiatrists, now is not the time to quit. A lot of providers are doing virtual with it, so you know, I'm also doing that as well, where you can talk to your provider directly. Keep doing that. If you're doing that, if you're looking for help, there are a lot of crisis lines available now that can
help people kind of do the immediate. So you know, whatever town or city or in Google search looking up on your smartphone, you know what crisis lines are available in your town. Again, this is the time to really be proactive and there are a lot of resources available
because so many people are suffering. Absolutely, when we talk about anxiety, right, like you know, usually when I'm talking about therapists about anxiety, it's like an irrational fear, like anxieties are usually irrational fears, but this is a very rational thing to be afraid of, this whole pandemic where're in. So what would you tell your patient if they told
you that they were experiencing anxiety about this situation. I would say, I'm glad that you're in touch with your emotion because this is something that most people are experiencing. You know. I have someone asked me. They were a husband and wife. They both drive buses for a city, and they were experiencing anxiety, and they asked me, how
do I cope with this? And the reality is that anxiety can be useful because if you're a frontline worker and you're looking at co workers getting really sick, some of them dying, you are feeling what you are described Charlamagne as rational fear and so use that is it time for the you know, I told this couple, is it time for one of you to consider maybe not working if your resources can allow that, Is it time to really kind of advocate for that because both of
you end up six Where does that put you? So that anxiety can be useful because it can tell you something is going on and I need to figure out how to get through this, whether it's unemployment, figuring out how you're going to pay your bills, figuring out what you're going to tell your children, or figuring out if you still need to go to work. Because black and brown people, we are being forced to kind of be
at the front line of this entire pandemic. So to your point, Charlemagne, I would tell my patient, what are you feeling anxious about? Let's figure out if there's a way that you can actually work through this so that you can figure out a plan, and then let's try to figure out how to cope. But first things first,
let's figure out what is the real issue here. And you know you spoke about people, you know, staying home, right, do you think people's mental exhaustion from being stuck at home is forcing them to believe is actually safe to resume everyday life. Absolutely so. Denial is a defense mechanism that we have a number of different defense mechanisms that are psyche uses to help to kind of protect it. Right, you can use denial. You can say, oh, this isn't
really happening. You can project, you can say I'm not mad, my husband is a one that's mad. But really you're the one that's feeling that emotion. So I do think because a lot of people, you know, we've been home for almost two months for a lot of people, you know, and then the media is shifting the story to look, this town is open, you've got people protesting. So I do think that it can cause people to think that
this is now sort of over. But if they paid attention to what happened in the Senate yesterday, a lot of experts are pointing out that while these places towns are opening, that we are still seeing a rise in the number of cases. And even though the media is not focusing on what's happening with black and brown people, we are still the ones who are being affected. All right. You know a lot of people they haven't They maybe not having developmental illness, but how can they just combat
general thoughts of negativity? Like when you got those feelings of negativity at a time like this, how do you just combat those just regular everyday feelings of negativity? Absolutely, so I encourage people to practice mindfulness. Mindfulness is really just taking a small moment of time and focusing as many of your senses on whatever you're doing. So an example I always give people it can be like picking up a piece of fruit and orange really taking in that.
It sounds really corny. But what that does over time is it helps people to learn how to cope with acceptance, being able to accept that this is a situation that I'm not in control of. And if you're able to sort of develop that type of coping, then it does lead to less anxiety, right whereas a lot of people cope by trying to figure out everything. You know, if I can figure out I'm going to meet all of my bills, or if I can figure out how I'm going to get my children and do all these things,
that makes them feel released. But we're in a time where that's not realistic. So mindfulness is going to help you to learn how to accept just be in the moment. It is what it is. The other thing is really to reframe the way that you are talking to yourself
or talking out loud. So instead of saying that I'm stuck at home, you know you're safe at home, instead of saying, well, you know, oh my god, I'm spending too much time with my family, Like you all encourage me, Look how much time I get to spend with my family, And that's going to help your mind to not really get into that negative cycle. And it's not easy to do, but you can find if you can start to do that really over time, you might really be able to
shake a lot of those negative thoughts. It's really about reframing the way that you're thinking and talking. What about the people who have been expressing disappointment in themselves because they feel like they haven't been productive. Our old standards are no longer what we need to be using. So it's absolutely okay if you don't come out of this pandemic with the New York Times bestseller. It's okay if you do not come out of this pandemic with everything done.
You really just need to focus on maintaining well. It's a good time to forgive yourself for things and not feel guilty about I'm watching TV. I look at it like I never get to watch TV like this, So I'm gonna watch this and enjoy it. And one thing I did say, because I started off at this like working out every day and being really healthy, and then I spent a little bit of time like not doing so well, and then I had to get myself back on track. A couple of days ago, like what am
I doing? But I looked at it like this has never happened for me before, Like this is unprecedented. I don't know if it will ever happen again. So I am trying to take advantage of some things in my home that I need to handle and that I haven't had a chance to do. So I look at it like that, absolutely, and that's what I think a lot of people should do, just you know, take practice self compassion. Absolutely,
And it's my last question. Can we can we talk about the pressure that you and law put on y'all young king by naming him brilliant. I figured this was going to come up, you know, I think I don't think it's pressure. What I think this is is really going to help him to hear every time his name is called. What my hope is for every black and brown kid out there is to know that they are brilliant, to know that they are destined for something bigger, for whatever it is that they decide to do in life,
and then to be honest. It really is a challenge because you cannot yell at a kid name brilliant, I can't be telling. But I really got to think about it, so you know, it's something that we thought about and really we're really happy with. Well, thank you doctor Jeff for checking in. We appreciate you. Give me a Twitter and Instagrams and all that good stuff, Doctor Jeff. Oh yeah, so it's ask doctor Jess on Instagram. That's really where I spend a lot of my time. You know, I
always want to connect with therapists. You can visit my website ask doctor Jeff dot com. Make sure that you let me know where you know you practice, what kind of work you do, because I think we should really connect during this time. And then I'm also taking patients, so you know, you can also go to as doctor Jess dot comment and still out some information there. Well, thank you, doctor Jess. We appreciate you for checking Doctor Jess.
I appreciate you. It's the breakfast Club. Is doctor Jess Morning, everybody is DJ MVY, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We all the breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk virtual graduations. This is the rum of report with Angela. Yes, and I've seen a lot of people doing great things for the graduating class of twenty twenty. I just saw Lonnie Love do the graduation speech for cast Tech in Detroit.
Now they're saying this weekend Saturday, there will be a Graduate Together America honors the class high school class of twenty twenty, and that's going to be happening one hour special at APM Eastern. It'll also be broadcast in Spanish on Univision and there'll be a special message from Univision anchors as well. So President Barack Obama will deliver deliver the commitment message, and they're also going to have Bad Bunny who's going to be addressing the students in a
special message in Spanish. And there will be other prominent people as well that will be highlighted this weekend, Lebron, James her, the Jonas Brothers, Yara Shahiti, the Away So that should be a really dope one. Farrell is going to be on there, Olivia Wilds and Daya and a lot of students, educators and families can now watch on Graduate Together twenty twenty dot com. I still don't understand how America can, uh, you know, find a way to
open up restaurants and socially distanced. We can't find a way to have graduations and socially distanced. Yeah, so I agree. The park the beach. You know, people are still running, but your daughter can't walk across the stage. God damn. YO. Think it also matters the size of the school because some schools are like three thousand students in a high school. They can still games where they could spread those kids out and they don't hurt that people have to be
running across the stage together. You give them six feet and it makes it easy or what You could even do it in a parking lot. Do it in the parking lot. I don't. Can't have the parents in the cause so that way they know they are gonna just delay it and do it later. How about just do it on the beach, since y'all don't mind how many people be walking on the beach the graduation. It's just weird, man, We got to America. Got his priorities all wrong. Bro,
But my daughter don't even have a capping gown. So I gotta get my capping gown. I'm gonna give it to Hunt and then we gotta do some kind of seremony. I'm gonna do something for it this weekend. Something build. Also this weekend. The ESPN docuseries The Last Dance will be on. I know you guys are excited to see
these next two episodes, very much anticipated. According to reports, though, they are saying that Scottie Pippen is unhappy about the last Dance and the way that he's portrayed as underpaid, as frustrated, even though Jordan did say that he's the best teammate he ever had and he wouldn't have had as much success without him, but you know, he was frustrated about it. Does talk about how he was frustrated about making far less than his teammates. There were rumors
that he might be traded to another team. He chose not to have search on his ruptured ain't gole Tendon and Michael Jordan didn't call that move selfish. So it's just a lot of things that they are allegedly saying that Scottie Pippen isn't happy about. He did do interviews
for the series. He did have the opportunity to talk about his feelings of frustration about being underpaid, about being undervalued, and a lot of people came to his defense, including Dennis Rodman, and he said, I wish he didn't give an ish like me about what people say and so he said he that Scottie Pippen does take criticism to heart about the truth to the matter. I mean, if
it is true, and it sounds like it's true. But I'm sure he's upset because you know, people only look at one side, and I'm sure this pipping side or why he did what he did. But I meant, though they talked to Doc every time they say something about Scottie, they cut the Scottie Pippen to talk to him about it. That's true, That's what I'm saying, Like, how are you mad about the truth? Like it's the reality of the situation.
He was underpaid, that's a fact, all right. Well, one person, Charles Barkley is calling out Michael Jordan, and he's saying that his relationship with Michael Jordan will never be mended. Listen to this. That's never gonna help him. Damn, you can let that go. Dan, stop it. Brother, We're good, Michael doing great, Chuck's doing great. But that's never gonna happen. Brother,
I'm too stubborn for that. I get it. And in addition, Charles Barkley says that Michael Jordan was selective about who he went hard on, he knows who to pick on. There's certain guys you can't treat like that, Like you have to know what guys you can treat badly, and they kind of accepted, you know, screaming at guys all the time, punching guys. Come on, man, there's certain guys that are whooped the hell out of you if you
tried doing that. So he had selective prosecution. I mean Scarbororelle and Steve Kerr, I mean, come on, man, I disagree with that. I think Jordan pushed people who he felt like weren't playing to their full capabilities. He didn't have to do that with Rodman or Pippin or Horace Grant because they came to play and play hard every night. He pushed get horrorst you know, he did it the robbing at one point where he just pushed people who needed to be pushed, like he got the most out
of everybody. I don't think he picked and choose who. Yeah, he wanted to get on. I think he just wanted to win people that he weren't playing hard enough. He pushed him, you know. Charles Barkley also said that he feels that Jerry Krauss was portrayed unfairly in the docuseries. Uh, actually Jerry Krause because I think you know, Ryn's office thrown him under the bus and drove over like ten times.
You know, the notion that Jared Krous broke up the bulls andtybody to think that's got to be a fool. Jared ryns up didn't want to pay those guys. You know, he had a chance to play Horrors Grant he let him go. He didn't want to pay Scotty. I guarantee. I don't even know what Dinners was making, but I bet it was pay nuts. When it was time to
pay everybody, he broke up the team. I don't know if unfairly is the right word, but I do agree that Jerry Cross has taken a lot of smoke when it should beat him and the owner getting smoked together because you know, outside of Jordan, he built the perfect team around MJ. He hired Phil Jackson and then they all let their own egos getting away. Well, he let his own ego getting away, and then on top of that, the owner didn't want to pay them. So yeah, I
think they should be sharing the smoke. Well, listen, all this does is make it more oppressed for us to be watching this weekend the last dance, So everybody's weighing in. There's a lot of stories. Yes, there's a lot of stories coming out. The director said he couldn't believe that Michael Jordan approved these next two episodes, so I know we all want to see him. Wait, so looking forward to that on Sundays, and Charles just sounds salty that
they are not friends anymore. He really does, just sound
upset that he is not Michael Jordan's friends anymore. Do you think that Michael Jordan was being too sensitive and not liking Charles Barkley anymore after he called him out for what I think if they had, and if they had, if they were actual friends, like really really good friends, he should have heard that from Charles first before you heard it first, ye, if they were friends, like, you can't if we're actual friends, you can't say that on
TV and not say it to me. If you say it to me and didn't go on TV with it, Okay, I get it. I knew that was Charles's opinion, but you get blindsided by that of course. All right, now, let's talk about Kevin Durant. From our Brooklyn Nets. He was on Little Wayne's Young Money Radio and he talked about possibly will he be returning if the NBA picks it up, you know, during the season and playoffs in mid July. Here's what he said. Everybody wait on me
to come back, So I have a lot of emotions involved. Yeah, I get it. I understand the business now, but I'll be back when it's time, all right. We don't know when this time is going to be. It's been thirteen months since he had that Achilles tendon surgery, so we'll see what happens. But looking forward to that, and who knows if the season's even gonna be starting again, you know, so we'll see what happens. They said two to four weeks Adam still was gonna make a decision the commission
of the NBA two to four weeks. It seems like the players want to come back though, so that a lot. Yeah, that does matter a lot too, because if they didn't want to, I would say it's definitely not happening. But because they are willing and you know, coming to that decision amongst themselves, then it makes sense to figure out how to do it safely, all right, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss ye Now Charle yes, sir, who are giving that
donkey two? You know, I need a young man named Maurice Fain to come to the front of the congregation. We need to have a word with him. He's a scammer. Oh boy, all right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to breakfast club. Come morning, it's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Dunky of the Day a little bit of a mixed up, so like a don Day the club bitches. 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 Thursday, May fourteenth goes to a young man named Maurice Fain who goes by the name of Arkansas mo. Now. I have no idea who Maurice Fayin is. I don't who Arkansas Mole is, but they're the same person. But all the news reports I read from CNN, Fox News, the Hollywood Reporter all say he stars on VH one's Love and Hip Hop Atlanta. I haven't watched that show
in a minute, so I have no idea. I do know yesterday I read a story about him that pissed me off, and that's exactly why he's getting the credit he deserves for being stupid today. Now, we all have heard about the Paycheck Protection Program, right PPP? Well if you have, if I had to explain PPP for donkeys, It simply give small business loans to continue to pay employees and cover other business expenses during this coronavirus crisis. If you don't use that money to pay your employees,
you eventually have to pay that money back. Okay. The whole goal of the loans is to keep work is employed during the pandemic. Now, it's been a lot of conversations surrounding the fact that this money isn't getting to the people who actually needed, especially small black owned businesses. There are small businesses I support, like Evelynce Kitchen here in New York. I've seen them been in their frustrations about not receiving any pp which you have to be frustrating,
especially when you see multimillion dollars. Sometimes billion dollar businesses like the Los Angeles Lakers and shake Shack receive money. They have been websites by prominent black figures like Robert F. Smith dropped on the clues bombs for Robert F. Smith, a chairman of Vista Equity Partners. Remember we had him on the Breakfast Club to discuss quickbase dot com, which is a website brothers and sisters with small businesses can go to to help him get in the queue to
get some of these loans. Okay, you know did he did. He dropped on a clues bomb for Diddy. He launched affairshare dot com, which is essentially the same thing, a website you can go to that helps you, you know, get get through some of this red tape faster. Okay, I'm saying all that to say I have watched a lot of people who need and want these loans for the right reasons not be able to get them, Which
brings me to Arkansas Mo Maurice Fame. Okay. He runs a corporation called Flame Trucking, all right, and he submitted a PPP loan application for the company on April fifteen, stating that the business had one hundred and seven employees and an average monthly payroll of one point four million dollars.
All of this, according to an affidavit put a criminal complaint. Okay, Flame Trucking asked for a loan of three point seven million dollars and certified that the loan that the loan proceeds would be used to retain workers and maintain payroll, r make mortgage interest payments, leads payments, and utility payments, because that's exactly what it specified you should do under the paycheck Protection Program. Well, United Community Bank ultimately funded
the loan. They ain't give him the three million, but they gave him two million, forty five eight hundred dollars. Well, would you like to know what happened next? Let's go to Fox five Atlanta for the report place. Maurice mo Fane is out on bond, but authorities say they're monitoring him closely because not long after FBI agents interviewed him, he used his cell phone to look up countries with
no extradition laws. The thirty seven year old sole owner of Flame Trucking, who can be seen on episodes of Love and Hip Hop Atlanta, has in trouble with the FEDS for alleged fraud. The reality TV personalities. April fifteenth loan application stated his business had one hundred seven employees. Fain applied for more than three million dollar loan to maintain payroll and other payments. Documents show the bank gave him a more than two million dollar loan days later.
The US Attorney's Office says Fain used more than half of that to buy a Rolllex presidential watch, a diamond bracelet, five current diamond ring, Lisa Rolls Royce, and pay forty thousand dollars for child support. May sixth, federal agents interviewed Fain, who admitted to applying for a loan but denied spending the money on anything but his business. According to Arvest Bank,
Fling Trucking's account was closed September seventeenth, twenty nineteen. You know, before I continue with this story, I would love to play a game of yes, what race it days? I usually do this, it did, but I had to do this now, Okay, I have to just for my own amusement, all right. Mari's Fain stars on Love and Hip Hop Atlanta Black. He had a truck company Black for over three million dollars in PPP loans. Black ended up getting
a little over two million. Black ben one point five million dollars on eighty five grand in jury black footing a Rolex watch, black, a diamond bracelet, five carrot diamond ring. Also least did I say, at least a two thy nineteen rolls race race and he paid forty grand and black Child's point Indian angelie Ye. Also, those listening in the car are on the iHeart radio app. Yes, what racy? Yeah? Can I go first? Can I go first? Go first? First?
I was leaning towards white, right, Nah? Black? He black like black black? Black? He's black? Angeli? Ye, what do you think? Guess what racing? Yes, he's black? Guess what? All right, he's not black. He's a nick, right, a pure bread grade a nick. Yes, Uncle Rugis, you are correct. It is heavy nutrey at work here and in the immortal words of Rick James, they should have never given
you this money. Humorous is a find story. As humorous as I find these levels of nutry, it bothers me because there are a lot of small businesses struggling right now. You took two plus million dollars out of the hands of black owned businesses that really needed you know what I'm saying, how many brothers and sisters really need that money, and you out here giving it right back. To the government, giving it right back to the white man. Because you
want to buy jewelry and fancy ask CAUs. Now, there has been a lot of confusion among small business owners about PPP guidelines because the question that has been asked commonly is can business owners be permitted to pay themselves
a salary? Are taking owners draw? I don't know the answer to that question, but I do know it's something that rubbed me the wrong way about a man using the PPP money to buy jewelry and fancy cause and according to the police AffA David when asked if he who's the money to buy the Rose Royce rafe Listen to this. This is the true It's in the police affidavit. When asked if he used the money to buy the
rolls Royce raf, he replied kind of, sort of, not really, Okay. Now, Fain told the agents that he believed he had to write to use parts of the PPP loan proceeds for other business purposes and for working capital. Look at me, tell me what part of the trucking game does jewelry play? Okay? What business purposes of the trucking game? Is a Rose Royce rave not to mention. His Flames trucking account was closed on September nineteenth. I'm trying to figure out Number one,
are they not betting people for this PPP money? And if they are betting people, why aren't the folks who really needed getting it. These are all questions that inquiring minds want to know. But in the meantime, Maurice, you should be ashamed of yourself. You're taking food off people's place for your own personal gain, and that, to me is some legend there he shuckers. Please give Maurice faints just sweet sounds. And the Hamletones, Oh no, you a
do gee gee, oh the day. I just want to say, though a lot of people did by persons who owns Go Daddy. He got an eight million dollars p p P loan he did, just gave it back. He owns Go Daddy billionaire. Yeah. You know how people host their websites on Go Daddy. Yeah, it's not I don't think it's based on revenue. Is based on how many employees you got, So if you have certain if you have let less than a certain employees in order to be able to get that. But come on, dude, like you're
a billionaire. Yeah, what I mean, a lot of people ended up giving back there. A lot of people didn't end up giving back the money though, like Shake Shock and a lot of corporations. The Lakers talked about that, you know, still it out to give it back, though what did they get? They get a heart later on and say, you know what, maybe we just don't need this thing. I think sometimes your financial team does that.
I think that a lot of people's financial teams do it for them, and then they get approved and they get the money. That's what I think happens in situations like that. Right, So y'all, if you're applying for these loans and you don't need them for your business, let the small businesses who really need these loans get that money.
And be clear, it is a loan, so it can be forgiven if you use it for the right purposes, for making sure that you can pay your employees, pay your lease, whatever it is that you need it for. It's not just for you to just have some more money. So, and it's damn sure enough for you to stunt at all. What you mean, I'm about to do it today. I'm about to get me a book. I'm about to get me a new ring, a new chain. I'm about to get it up. What's that chain that tepaying head back
in the day, big ass Shane. I'm gonna give me big ass Chaine. I'm letting you know right now if you do that, you're definitely gonna miss your daughters graduation and communia. Okay, sir, And you do have to meet certain guidelines to be forgiven for this loan, So just know if you apply for it and you get it, they are gonna investigate people. Got just make sure you're doing the right thing with it. Make sure that money
is going to your employees. That's There's a lot of people that need that, man, So please don't take advantage of it, please don't. All right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Yes, sir, Hello, need relationship advice, need personal advice, just need real advice. Haul up now for asking wanting everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. Now it's time for asking. Ye Hello, who's this? Yeah? This this Eugene
calling from Miami, Florida. What's up? Bro? What's your question for you? All right? So, ye, I got this question, right, So, like I just met this girl. I've been newer. We grew up probably rely in the next same neighborhood, and we've been dating for like three months. It's been going good. We decided to like invest in a few you know, we ended up doing a few business and investments and
it's actually going good. But now I feel like our personalities is clashing where we you know, we're finding ourselves, you know, arguing more now, but the business is going good. So now I'm stuck between do our stay in the relationship and try to see where it goes or continue with the business and you know, just build off that. Like I'm kind of yeah, you know, Eugene, it's always tough to date somebody while you're trying to do business
together because you wonder if our relationship will affect the business. Now, as far as you guys having invested in business together, is this something that y'all have to work together on, like so up for is it just an investment? I mean yeah, it's definitely, Like we definitely have to work day to day and you know, be up under one of which again, like the vibe is always good, but it's just I believe that both of our you know, personalities is dominant, and like when we class, it's pretty
like nasty. So it's like, you know, I don't want to be going a whole another year, two years, three years doing the same thing. But at the same time, the business, like I said, it's pretty much good. We've been we just started and it's like we're seeing numbers and like it's going good. Do you'll have a contract with everything, like legally, so just in case things go left,
you know what you get and she knows what she gets. Yeah, of course, of course, Okay, just making sure Sometimes people disagree to do stuff and they don't map it out, and that's the thing. That's what I'm saying, like Dan, like I'm stuck in between, you know what, groow with this person because she's a very very good, interesting person,
you know what I'm saying. She's smart, intelligent, everything. But then like I see, it's like when you think about, you know, growing with somebody, building a foundation with them. Also it can be kind of speaking on both hands, you know. Yeah, well I think that it's worth a conversation for you're both to have because it sounds like you guys are both good business people, So you can be practical when it comes to that, but when emotions
get involved, sometimes that creates more friction. Sometimes when you're dating somebody, you end up talking about the business while you're at home supposedly having a good time, and that also causes friction and a relationship. So I would say, since y'all both seem like you're intelligent and practical people, have that conversation, be like, look, I just want to make sure I know that lines can get blurred and crust as we're dating as well as doing business together.
So let's make this agreement that we're not going to let our relationship affect whatever it is our business and will always keep that professional and that when we are together and we're trying to have some downtime away from the business, we're not discussing things that might cause us
to argue even more. Now, I don't know if you're saying you're not sure where you're going in a relationship, if you don't want to be with her, or you just don't know what's going to happen, but you guys are also going to have to come to some agreement as far as conflict resolution and when couples are together and they're doing business together. It's just as important how you decide to discuss things that you might not agree
on and how you decide to make up together. So that's something that y'all probably have to work on as well, because if you're going to have this ongoing relationship business wise, you guys have to make sure you know how to speak to each other. What bothers me. I don't like it when you say this to me. It really affects me when you say this. When we argue, do we have certain things that we know to diffuse a situation we need to not speak for a certain amount of time,
or do we need to address it right away? These are all things that y'all need to come together to discuss as far as making sure you have a long term situation business wise at least. Okay, yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Okay, yeah, And she might agree with you, She might say, you know what, we do get into these really bad arguments. Our personalities sometimes clash.
So let's figure out how we can make sure no matter what our business is taken care of, if we decide that we want to continue on with this relationship, we can do that. If not. We can still do business together as adult. Okay, definitely, I appreciate that. All right, no problem, all right? Ask ye eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship advice, hit ye now, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm gonna keep for real what you get some real advice
with Angela Ye, It's ask Ye morning. Everybody is dj Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we all the Breakfast Club with in the middle of ask ye, Hello, who's this? Um? This is an anonymous caller, Anonymous? What's your name? Anonymous? M I'm just messing with you. I'm just messing with you. What's your question for you? UM? What if you have like a toxic baby daddy and you know, like he's gonna be getting out of Jill so he's all in your life. So he's gonna ruin your life? Yeah? Does he?
And he knows where you live and everything. Well, not right now because I'm in between housing, but like I'm interested en buying this house to like forty minutes outside of town. And he gets out of jail at the end of July, and it's like when he was out, he was like going crazy. I'm talking about like he's tried to give me fire from at least two of my jobs. He's like, I can't move one with my life. He's allowed to have a girl for it, and he doesn't want to co parent. He saw for his righte.
We go to through the mediation, he's like, oh, he doesn't want me to know where he lives at, telling the mediators that his mom's addressed. Like then like well we leave, He's like, oh, can I take you your breakfast? Just like real toxic, like don't pay child support? Child support, anonymous, have you tried to handle this with the police. I get a restraining order. I've had two through juveniles, but
they expired. You need to get a permanent one. I actually had to get a permanent restraining order on somebody before, and this sounds to me like a situation where you need a permanent restraining order against this person. You are in fair of your life, you have a child, you don't know what he might do to you. He's calling your job, he's harassing you. You need to make sure that you do that legally. In charges against him for menacing because they got him on the customer service line.
Actually like talking to me. But it's just like, right now he doesn't know where I'm at because he's incarcerated. But when he gets out, why he still has even while he's in jail, he still has people reaching out to me, Like, right, I think what needs to happen is because let me tell you, I'm sure he's scared
to ever have to go back to jail. And once you get that permanent restraining order, if he reaches out to you, if any of his people reach out to you, if he continues to harass you, if he tries to show up where you are, then he'll go right back to jail. Yeah, I think. And and when you do buy that house, I would say, try to make sure that you incorporate so that it's not traced back to your names. And when you do buy it, he can't just find out where you live easily. Right, It's like
I'm gonna be buying this house. It's stid of like forty minutes outside of town, but I can still come to work, but it's out the way, right. It's just like I was going to move out of state, but this coronavirus kills that. It was like I can't even get to Texas if I wanted to, because that's where I was. But it is crazy, like he's getting out
and I'm not as scared. He's just like he just tries to ruin everything I got going on, which is weird, right, Like, I don't want you, so listen, I'm telling you right now, And I know sometimes it sucks to have to do that because you feel bad, like, oh, I'm gonna get a restraining order. I don't want to put him in jail, but his daughter loves him, but he's crazy, Like, listen, he'll be putting himself in jail if he does reach out to you and harass you anymore. So just remember
that it's not you putting him in jail. You're getting a restraining order for your own good. And if he violates that, that's on him. Then that means that he did something that he knew was gonna let him in jail. That's not on you. You can't feel guilty about that, You're right, So he knows what he gotta do, and so just please, I'm begging you, like, just go ahead and go through that process. Start that now, like you can go and you know, submit for that and make
sure that you get it. You have people that could back you up and talk about the kind of things that he's done and how he's been menacing, and you have evidence of that, and you're in fair because that way, if something happens, he's gonna end up going right back to jail and he'll have to think twice before he even tries to come for you. And sometimes people take advantage of the fact that they know they can prey
on your weaknesses and know that you'll feel guilty. And of course you never want to put nobody in jail. But he got to leave you alone. He can't try to destroy your life. He's not thinking you're right. I don't know what's wrong. Will do he gotta get some and you know, maybe they'll order that he has to get some help. And he's like his little sidekick. It's like she allows a little bit alone with him. Let's just focus on him and stay away from me. I
don't even want you around me. Don't reach out to me, don't come see me. And whatever they have to do in the court to figure out when he sees his daughter, let them handle that. If that means you got to drop your later off at your mom's house. Whatever you gotta do, but the police. And that's the only thing I'm going to great, Okay, well good, it's on him now, you know you get that restarch any order now, it's on him if he wants to stay out of jail.
It's not on you, all right, all right. I wish you so much, alike, and we're sending you some love. Thank you so much. All right, good luck, Mama. Ask ye eight undred five eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship advice and any type of advice, you can call ye. Now, we got rumors on the waggie. Yes, and let's talk about somebody who's very upset about all these reports that they're not as nice as you might think they are. A lot of people are coming out
with stories about how mean this person is. All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning the Breakfast Club. It's about Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Yes. So, now, there's been some reports that Ellen DeGeneres is not as nice as she tries to appear, and people saying that she's just straight out mean. There's also a lot of stories if you look online.
They actually started a whole Twitter thread a couple of months ago that was started by comedian Kevin t. Porter. He said he was going to donate two dollars to the Los Angeles Food Bank and exchange for every story about Ellen being mean, and a lot of people waited in. Some people had evidence they were saying that going to her show was demeaning. Then there's also reports about her not paying her staff during this time and hiring a whole new staff to come in to do the Ellen Show.
One person also said you might as well nickname her the tough Long Terror because they said viewers at home keep buying what she's selling. Ellen's been in our homes for so long. It'll take a lot more than a bodyguard and a blogger to change how people feel about her. Her best response to just being happy. Ellen on the show every day, So it says that she is a little bit stressed out though about all these stories about
people saying that she's been very mean. A former bodyguard also claimed that while working for her, she never said hello to him, never thanked him. Then he said the whole experience was just demeaning. That's the only example, Like what did they example? Variety published several accounts from crew members of the Ellen Show. They said they were barely getting paid during coronavirus lockdown and that she hired a non union, less expensive crew to work on her show
from home. And then again, there's a whole Twitter thread if you look online, you can see it where people talked about being on the show and how she was nasty and mean to them. So even though according to some people, they're saying that she promotes kindness to the viewers, they said that she really is very heartless. But some people are also saying, well, you know, she might just have issues with you know how some people have like
social issues and things like that. So I don't know what the true story is, but there are a good number of stories of people saying that she was just nasty. I mean, that's so interesting because, you know what I'm saying, I always wonder, you know, what do people be expecting of folks? Like, you know, just because you have a perception of somebody doesn't mean that's who they are, Like would you want Ellen to dance with you every single day?
But I will say most people like that the way they you know, um um, what they give off on television is are is not who they are in real life, because I know plenty of people who give off that nice, do good or energy and they the most trash ass people. And then I know people who give off the opposite energy, who might be the nicest people behind the scenes, you know, But can it also be the time that you catch them,
you know what I mean? Because you know, maybe they're out with their family or maybe they're doing something and you know, they say, well, not right now, and people take that as a slap in the face. That's true too.
I think you also have to worry, like, you know, if people who actually worked with you have things to say about you, because they're saying a lot of her crew members are talking about it, and you know, and even her own security, and you know, it does feel like if all these people who worked with you are saying these things about you, then maybe there's some truth to it. That's probably could people be front of their
ass all. I can't stand it. I hate it. I'll be laughing, portray a certain way on you know, anything, and then behind the scenes they really be the whackest trash as people. M So, I think what people do have to think about it is like what kind of
energy are you putting out there? How do you treat the people that work with you and work for you, because you never know when those people and you know, it can work for a number of years, but then when it comes out and the truth comes out and a number of people have something to say, you know, that's how Is that how you want to be remembered. So I'm not sure what's going on in Ellen's case, but maybe there's still time for her to think about
the way she's treated people, if this is indeed true. Now, Wendy Williams has sold her former New Jersey family mansion. It's been quite some time since she put that on the market. She originally listed that property back in January, and she listened it for one point eight nine five million, Then she dropped the price to one point six nine nine and then it was listed at one point five and so she has finally just sold it. So I'm sure that's good news. What did well did she sell
it for? You? You know? I know the last time it was listed was one point five so I'm not sure what the actual sale price was, but she lost about six hundred thousand only house. She paid about two point one for that home close to two point too, or she just wanted to get out. I'm sure one thing about Wendy though, what you see is what you get. What she presents to you on TV and on radio
is exactly who she is in real life. God damn it. Okay, all right, and congratulations to Black Thought and Quest Love. They have done a deal with Universal Television and it's a first look deal. So they've been part of the NBC family since two thousand and nine when they became the house band for Jimmy Fallon and so now they have their own deal. Quest Love said, this deal is very important to us as we've been content producers and
storytellers for our entire career. They also had that AMC documentary series Hip Hop The Songs that Shook America that was really great, so congratulations to them. They have their Blackwoodstock film coming out as well, so it'll be really dope. It's a musical based homes and it's also a musical that they have coming out based on Soul Train, so they have a lot of different things happening, so well deserved dropping a clues box for Quest Love and Black Thought.
I'm telling you every TV production company Film production company needs to hire rappers because rappers are the best storytellers. They have the most new, creative, interesting stories that y'all have not done yet, the rappers, I'm telling you all right. Well, blue Face looks like he's getting a lot of attention
because of things that he's doing now. He shared a video on social media of his child's mother, Jaden Alexis, and I guess it looked like she was trying to break the windows of his house, and she did break one.

front of the kid. It's Whacker's health for blue Face to be recording and even though I understand why, he probably did record it because it'll keep him out of trouble later just in case, correct, And she shouldn't be acting like that in front of the child, like that child is gonna remember that, and that child is gonna think that behavior is normal, and it's not. She posted since to me, take is to the Graham and then
