You ain't never ever talked about no black artists or anything but artists from the Dominican Republic. I'm not mad at that. Todd are Dominican, all right, rep Your set Dominican envy, and I don't know what he's saying. I don't know what.

Yesterday we was in a meeting for about seven hours and they were going back and forth with the lawyers and they able to talk to Spanish.

have to check. I got a white sneakers, but no white jeans. This guy's great. All right, Well let's get the show cracking front page news. What we're talking about. Well, let's talk about, oh some more fallout from this college admission scam. Find out about Yale University. One student paid one point two million dollars the family to get her in, and we'll tell you what happened now, all right, and Mayor Peep butter Man, that's not his name, what's his name? Bro?

He was? But what rappers as? You just signed a Dominican artist, So you got to go sign a black artis from queen's name, Pete Butter, the old school may Po Judge Jeene Timberlin and the producer. What does this say on the sheet? Who was joining us today anyway? Judge? He says, but assulting. He's running for president twenty twenty. I wasn't here. I think he's incredible. Okay, all right, well we'll kick it with him in a little bit. Let's go front page news and next to the breakfast Club.

Good morning, DJ Envy Angela, Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we are the breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. You have to story about Connor mcgreggor's he retiring? Or heard that this morning on the radio? Did you? Yeah? He did announce a surprise retirement, and he also tweeted it. Hey, guys, quick announcement. I decided to retire from the sport formerly known as mixed martial art today I would show on my old colleagues well going forward in competition and now

joined my former partners on this venture. Already in retirement, he started getting the asking. Plus he's Bill Stillsman, a lot of that Floyd Mayweather money, So why not why not. I think this is the second time we retired though, so we'll sound He's also still suspended right now, so he can't find anyway. So I don't know what's you know, going to happen for him. And let's see if he stays in retiring. I'm not a fan of people retiring. Come back to Yeah, what else you talking about? Let's

talk about Yale. They resented the admission of a student. They said the family had paid one point two million dollars to get her into Yale University. Now, there were two people that applied with fraudulent athletic endorsements from the women's soccer coach, Rudy Meredith. One person did not get in even though the soccer coach endorsed her, and the other was admitted and is attending Yale according to the university. So now they have rescinded that. Now Rick Singer is

cooperating with prosecutors. He's the person that's the mastermind behind everything. He's pleading guilty to racketeering, money laundering, conspiracy, conspiracy to defraud the US, and obstruction of justice charges. All we know about this other student. They're not naming the person. They're just calling her Yale applicant. One is that Singer created a false athletic profile for her and sent that fake profile to Meredith, who was the person who's the

women's soccer coach. They said that she was a soccer recruit to help her get into the school, and the parents paid one point two million dollars to Singer. Singer then cut Meredith a check for four hundred thousand dollars. Wouldn't you rather your kids get in on their own merit, because what kind of message you send it to your kids that you can just pay your way through life. They're gonna pretend you play soccer. Maybe I don't have that much money, you know what I'm saying, But I

just don't think you can pay your way through life. Eventually, it's gonna come a point in time where you're a talent, Your skills, your work ethic is gonna have to show up. So yes, So that's one of the first fallouts from this school scheme. Now over there biting his nails, No, my bite. Money, My kids is good money. My kids got straight a's and he dropped a classes on a classes. My kids are good, they're good. On nail. My son is a star football player. Annie, Yes, straight A's They're good.

They don't even need me. They are good. Now, Krispy Kreme owners have admitted to a family history of Nazi ties. That family also owns Doctor Pepper, Panera Bread. They said that their Nazi ancestors did use slave labor during World War Two. So now they're going to be donating eleven million dollars to a yet undisclosed charity after a three year investigation that discovered details of their ancestors behavior. Let's start with giving out some free Crispy Creme franchises because

I want one. I'm not gonna lie. I've been wanting to buy a Crispy Creme franchise. Did you apply or you didn't even look at the details. I haven't really looked at I did look at the details once, but I didn't really get two into it and death with it. But I really do want to purchase a cop But this is one of Germany's the richest families that owns the controlling steak and Krispy Kreme donuts and Panera Bread,

amongst other things. They can pull them with two and Adidas wasn't there some It's a lot of different companies that were like that. I thought, so too, right, Well, who knew I didn't know about Krispy Kreme. I need to hit shot up. I definitely want me a couple of Christia Cream Donuts. I'm not gonna lie to you. Don't want I want franchise, Okay, I want the franchise. I just wanted. Don't you gotta go through the process. You gotta applied for it, and then I'm sure you

gotta take some classes. I know it. But I was looking at Chick fil A. They actually wanted you to work there, to go tell coup process. It's a lot, it's a lot into it, and I think I'm not gonna tell why. But yes, I would like to Christian. All right, well that is your front page. You do. And I just want to say that Jersey did not pass the marijuana legislation yesterday. Really no, they did not. They put it on hold. They didn't think they were gonna have enough vote, so they had to postpone it.

I don't know. You hung up, just accepted get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up, wake y'all, you're time to get it off your chest because your man or blessed. We want to hear from you on the breakfast block. Hello. Who's this? Hey? What's going on? Man? It's just Trey Watter? Hey, Trey, We get it off kid chests? Bro, No money was

going on your game. He's traveling in the guy morning you guys every time, wake up. It's my birthday to day and I'm so kind. I got daddy you guys Baddy birthday. Bro, it's a bad bas birthday. Hey right, have a good one. That's all you got. Hey. I just want to say you guys are really funny. Um y'are doing this thing out there? Oh no, man, I'm just so excited to be on here. I was waiting so long. Okay, this act your day off? Great? Hello?

Who's this? This is Shirley. Hey, Shirley, Shirley, Hey, what's going on? You guys? Get off your chest? I'm how do you guys talking about that school thing? As if society makes it easy for black or minorities to get ahead. So if I had the opportunity to put my daughter in a situation where somebody would give her an opportunity, I'm gonna do that. You guys are acting like society. It's not who you know, not necessarily what you but

my love, that's the whole point. That's the reason we speak out against it because we already know that it's more difficult for minority kids. Point it's enfranchise kids. So lying to these kids telling them all they gotta do with work hard and get an education. But the system is rigged. What's the point? One point, these people are paying one point two million dollars to get their kids into a school. Can we afford to do that? We gotta.

We gotta call that up. I pay for what I pay for my daughter to go to boarding school, Okay, and that's that's afford her opportunity with in life. So I'd rather deal with the reality of how the society is instead of making our kids believe that it's life is so fair. That's the point though, Like, if we don't call out the fact that these people are spending

all this money to get their kids through school. How can we lie to our kids and say, look, all you gotta do is work hard, get good grades, and you can get in any school you want, when we know that's not the point. Shouldn't you should not be lying to your kids. That's the whole point. You should give your kids the tools they need to subvide and telling the truth is survival. So what's the truth? Regardless what do you think Beyonce's doorter is gonna do? Beyonce?

Beyonce don't count. Beyonce is a whole other tax bracket beyond the don't count whatever. Okay, what the point is that money talks. So if I have an opportunity to give my child a way out, then I'm gonna give it to her, and I'm gonna make sure that she recognizes that she should give another minority kids an opportunity. How do you listen. I'm very happy and proud for you that you have managed to get your daughter in

boarding school. I think that's great. But the issue here is that everybody doesn't have one point two million dollars to bribe a college, and that that money is also taken away from the opportunity as somebody who could have gotten that scholarship. Who really played on the women's soccer team. This child doesn't even play soccer. Comment sense, that's the difference. You don't have one point two to give to Yale. You don't have a half a million to give to you.

If she does know, she don't. I know you don't, do you? No, I don't. Don't tell me what you know about me. You don't know enohing about Yeah, we don't. We don't know that you have a half a million dollars to give to a school for your daughter. No, No, I don't. However, don't make the assumption because I'm calling you, okay, so don't makeuption. Just listen. I'm just telling you the facts, like why are we getting so mad at realities? He got the money. One other thing, I want to get

off my cast. I'm sick of you guys talking about R. Kelly like he's the only pedophile in the world. We always condemn the black men. None of these white men who do it for generations are being being what to task for this. I'm not saying it's right. I'm saying that black people always jump on the bandwagon of condemning black people. But the white man, they won't do it too.

What do you want to happen? Pile that want to happen, is that the condemnation to go across the board, that it's all of our black men who are now who are cities in society, for our children who are being condemned. But the white man continues to do what they do black people, Why don't they? Why don't they do something about all these white people names? What about you have not under a he did? Now? What about the Emma

you got? I don't know who was under age? No Woody Island, no Roman Pilanski, no Harvey Weinstein, no Elvis Presley. He didn't do that all of that. Okay, listen, you need a Hugua Todda. What a wonderful friend. No, I don't even know hug See you guys don't want to hear somebody who want to say that. We've been saying that the whole time and whatnot. I just want those I don't think those people. Have you had breakfast? Angry? I'm not I'm expressive. I'm not angry that I'm very

happy in my life. But you have a good I love you. I love you more. I can't tell, but I know, you know, I can't tell. That's how black people talk to each other. You can't tell because you never want to hear nobody else's opinion but your own. But it's good. I'm okay with that. I just said I love you. He don't love you, but you, Yeah, you did, But you said a smart remark on the end. I can't help it, Yeah, I can't. Can't help when you can't help, bresive, I can't help to say something smart.

Why did y'all do the people this morning? Damn, I'm this morning. Everybody's very pasty. Who saw a real quick right fast? Come on, man, not that we need to do it needs no worry for the rest of your day. Don't worry, be happy, don't where it be a hoppy smile bitch bays go too far. Let's get happy. We got rumors on the way. You know what, I'm gonna started off on a positive note. This morning. We're gonna

be talking about finances. We're gonna be talking about honors, who got their own day and the city's highest honor in Atlanta. Also the Georgia State Senate. Find out who they honored.

So let's get to these rumors to talk Pharrell, She's filling the team. This is the rule of report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, let's start off with some good news this morning. Farrell is the executive producer of a new kids show on Netflix and it's called brain Child. Now.

He said he got involved because it's a desperate need to raise awareness about the importance of science with our youth. So basically, it's a STEAM learning show, which is science, technology, and current events. So you know it. STEAM stands for right, guys, Science, Technology, engineering, art, and math.

co created by Atomic Entertainment. They're the same one that do They're the same ones that do Brain Games, which is on the National Geographic Channel. It was on there for seven seasons. So they're talking about accessibility for the show, for teachers and for students. I'm gonna tell you why this is very important because, like you know, when when my wife is doing something like my daughter's hair or in the kitchen, so you want to turn the TV

on the back ground just to keep her distracted. You always want to try to throw on something that's informative education, educational correct. There'll be interactive games, there'll be experiments and skits to teach and highlight the core concepts and principles of steam Abstracted, which you getting that hair braiding now. Justin Bieber said he's going to take a break. He posted, So I read a lot of messages saying you want an album. I've toured my whole teenage life in early twenties.

That award is awarded to a small number of people who have made significant contributions to the local community and are celebrating a major milestone.

All those awards and that judge still got him on probation, won't put him in probation. That is

very That is crazy. That is very He didn't just get one in Connecticut or something like that. Yeah, he's beginning all kind of even know why Meek Miller is on a probation. That is crazy.

Now twenty one Savage Mark, he has pledged his money to Atlanta Youth during the bank Account of Financial Literary Expansion, and he's in the second phase of that campaign that he started earlier in the month. He's been speaking out against gang violence and voicing his support for tighter gun control.

He did just pledge on a hundred dollars to each of the kids who attended a recent event that he did and opened a bank account. So they had to attend and open a bank account, and he was pledged their first hundred dollars to put into that account. And I know it's a lot of people out there saying, oh, twenty one is just doing that because of his current situation. He'd been doing that way before they arrested him for being an illegal immigrant or whatever the hell he got

arrested for. All right, Now, that was all good news, and your front page news kind of wacked. To be honest with you, I was whacked, right, you said, what all positivity that I'd been like living in this area where if it bleeds, it leaves. Nothing was bleeding in that rumor.

So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same. If you don't have any superpower? What would it be? On April fifth? Just say the words Shazam and you'll find out. Shazam is the ultimate wish fulfillment move me about a kid named Billy Batson who transforms into a superhero with just one word Chizam,

and theater's April fifth Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the God. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news now. Connor McGregor, he's retiring. Huh, it's a rap. He's over, He's not going anymore. Yeah. Yesterday he announced on Twitter that he is retiring. So there it is no more mixed martial arts for Conor McGregor. He said, I've decided to retire from the sport formerly known as mixed martial art today. I wish all my

old colleagues well going forward in competition. I now joined my former partners on this venture, already in retirement. Proper opinion. Coladas on me fellas, I'm not interested in connem a greg anyway, all mouth, no actions. It's like he knows how to sell a fight nowadays, but he forgot how to fight. Was he the best UFC fighter? I don't. I'm not, no, I don't know in the past few years. Absolutely, Okay, all right, what else the gig? Well, let's talk about

Michael Abanati, the attorney who has just been arrested for fraud. Now, if you guys don't know this story, prosecutors in New York are saying that it was a whole Nike scheme where he wrapped an AAU coach. Their team had just lost a Nike sponsorship that was worth seventy two thousand dollars a year. The coach said that Nike made payments to families or some high school basketball players, and in order to keep quiet, Abanati demanded payment from Nike to

keep him quiet. So he was arrested where he was supposed to go ahead and meet with Nike officials, and he did get arrested there. The complaint says that Evanati claimed that the AAU coach had evidence one or more Nike employees had funded payments to families of top high school basketball players and then tried to conceal those payments. Now here's how Michael Evanatti is responding to those claims. For the entirety of my career, I have fought against

powerful people and powerful corporations. I will never stop fighting that good fight. I am highly confident that when all of the evidence is laid bare, when due process occurs, that I will be fully exonerated and justice will be done. Can you try to shake down length? Now? You also know Michael Evanati as he represents the family of Azria Clary in the whole Art Kelly criminal case, and he

also did represent Stormy Daniels. Now, Stormy Daniel said on Twitter, I made the decision more than a month ago to terminate Michaels services after discovering he had dealt with me dishonestly. And there will be more announcements to come. All Kelly sitting somewhere right now saying see no, we can't see y'all, Kelly. Two things can be true. Michael could be a scammer

and you can be a pedophile. Now, the Naki indictment also says that Abanati had an unnamed co conspirator, and they said it is Attorney Mark Geragos, so that is allegedly his co conspiracy. And they said he put on Twitter or Instagram he was gonna have a press conference today about what Nike was doing, and they arrested him like two three hours right after that that he posted that or something like that, What the hell is Knke doing.

They're saying paying families that they shouldn't be paying families, high school families, allegedly paying these families, and I have a problem with I don't have a problem to either. He was very expensive families. It's hard for these kids to get around. It's very expensive for these kids to play basketball. So the fact that they're helping these kids travel to get to these different places problems feeding these kids.

I don't have a problem now. Michael Abanati wanted to get between fifteen and twenty five million dollars and he said if he didn't get that money, he was going to hold a news conference on the eve of their quarterly earnings call. It's all alleged right now, probably these big shoe companies paying the college player these because these college players are bringing in billions and billions of dollars. Okay, well, it should just be legal. It should It should be

something that you have to sneak and do. They definitely need to make sure that these they're making all this money off of these students high school in college. Yeah, absolutely, or it should be illegal selling these kids jerseys for top dollar. You know what I'm saying, making these kids. They should get a percentage of making these kids wear your shoes, you know, and not paying them a goddamn thing. Okay, a lot of them have families at home that are

struggling to make it meet and expect things like this happened. Meanwhile, NABA making billions of dollars. But we're watching Duke games praying that Zion Womensen don't have an injury that's gonna keep them from getting paid in the future. We know what, we know what that organization is making an NC double as making all right, and speaking of money, one of Germany's richest families is now trying to come to terms

with their past. That's very disturbing. They own a controlling stake in Krispy Kreme Donuts and Panera bread amongst others. They're donating eleven million dollars to charity. Their ancestors with supporters of Hitler and extensively used forced labor. So now they are making this huge donation. The family has an estimated wealth of thirty three of thirty seven billions dollars. F YI, We're gonna have to come to the harsh reality that every institution in the world, probably that is

worth something, was built on somebody's blood. You know what I'm saying. Yep, You're just gonna have to come to that hart reality at some point. All right, Well that is your front page news. All right, thank you, missy. Now when we come back eight hundred five eight five one oh five one, we have Kendrick here. Kendrick, can you step right there and sit down for a second. Look, Sad already turn her MinC up now. Kendra is an intern up here. She also works me on several different

things my podcast. Sit down, Kendra, Sit down for a second, cell Kendra. So Kendra called me a couple of weeks ago. It was very distraught. She sent somebody money through cash app and she actually sent it to the wrong person. Now that happens because you've done that before. Yes, I sent five thousand, Kendra, I think you sent five hundred, correct, I sent four hundred, sent four hundred, and um, Kender

tell her story ahead, Kend. Okay. So I was sending four hundred to my friend while we were away, but I actually I sent it to the wrong person. So I called a cash app number, Google the number that you google that. I thought it was cash app because I reached out to Mby because I knew he had one through the problem. So he was going to get a number. But you know how sometimes he just so heavy handed with the trigger. So I was just like, let me just go on Google and search for a

cash app. You google cash refund, cash ap refund number, Okay. So then when I looked up the number, I called it. But I spoke with this this man. I think his name was Tyron. He was an Indian allegedly allegedly his name was Tyron. Really his name was really Tyrone. And so the whole time I was crying on the phone because I was distraught I lost four hundred dollars, and he was saying, ken, miss Dennis, just breathe through it. I got you relaxed. Yes, here he said, breathe in,

breathe out. I was trying to be so sympathetic because I was crying. I was on the streets of my emmy, and he said, just give me two minutes. He put me on hold. At that time, I did feel something in my stomach, saying this doesn't feel right, but you kept going. I I didn't trust that instinct. So two minutes later, while I was on hold, the phone call dropped, so I immediately ran to an atma. But you got to say. He asked you for you using name and past. Yes,

I'm sorry. He asked me for my email. He said, UM, can you verify some certain things for me? He asked me my card number. I'm thinking it's just like when you call a bank and they're verifying certain things with you. So I'm telling him certain personal information I gave out.

You know, I gave out too much, just gave out every hindsight is twenty twenty, so looking back at it now, I did some silly stuff, just being irrational, and so he set out your bank and he emptied out everything after I told him that I had lost four hundred dollars, and he was playing to be sympathetic. With me. So what's the story. Were you able to You weren't able

to get your money back? Though I wasn't, so I called my bank and they said they couldn't do anything about it because cash app is a third party, so they weren't able to because the funds were already taken out. Nothing could have been done. So I had to it has to be done through cash app. So what happened? So she lost horney lost my money. So you got scammed? Horror baby. All right, we've all been scammed out, we've all been scamps. Let's open up the phone lines eight

hundred five A five, one oh five one. Have you ever been scammed before? And if you have been scammed before, give us a call. When the lady from sales comes in today, Kendred, we're gonna walk you down there and see if we could fix this problem. Yeah, let's see if we can get her back her money. But even if we can't, make sure we're good. Thousand dollars eight thousand. We're gonna talk about that when we come back. I

had to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all the breakfast club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about being scammed, all right, have you ever been scammed before? Eight hundred five A five one oh five one. He said, she's been scammed out of eight thousand dollars. You got to tell this story, okay. So this is when I was a lot younger, and it was all the money I had in the world. I had just

been on tour and that was all cash that I had. Oh, I say, you think it's all uses out here singing. Now I was working. I was on tour, and that's when I used to work for Boutang, and I had eight thousand dollars cash, and I was like, I'm about to buy a car now. My brother told me he knew this guy that was a dealer, so he was licensed to go to the auctions and buy cars at the auction. I just had to give him the money. And he had gotten a couple of cars for people.

So I gave him the money. And what kind of car did I want? I think I wanted like a Toyota four Runner or something like that. So I was really excited to get this car at the auction. I was like, okay, I'm gonna have a car. It's gonna be dope. You know, just paid for the whole thing out front. It was all my money, right, and yeah, that's it, you know. But after this happened, Nope, never

seen him again. And then actually the assistant just a attorney and Brooklyn called me because they were looking for him because he was a scammer. And I just looked him up because I know it's full name online. Yesterday, I see he's still out here scamming people. He's in Atlanta now and it looks like he his name is Kennedy de Roach, and it looks like, yeah, that he pretends to do like work for people in their homes, like a contractor. Really, but all these people are like,

I hired him to do this. They gave him this money and he came in and did a little bit and then just left and never came back and said he's still scamming people. My goodness, I got scammed. I bought um. This guy was driving in the street and he asked me to roll down my window and said he had leather jackets. He said he just left the Jacob Javisoner and he had these leather jackets. And he was flying back to Italy, but didn't want to fly back with the jackson. I remember that she was so mad.

Jacket's real. So he pulled over and he was like, all right, look, let me show you. I'm gonna show you that the jacket is real. So he pulled out a lighter and tried to light the jacket on fire and was like, see, leather doesn't burn. I'm like word. He was like, the jacket is real. It's so it's I can't remember the brand, it's this. It's that, it's a real leather jacket. I was like how much. He was like five hunty. I say, giving you five hundred, bro?

He said, I do two for three hundred. I said bet. So I bought myself one and I bought my dad one. Right, I got all excited. I brought it to my dad. My dad was like, this is rubber. This is not leather. I said, no, this is leather. So we went to the local like seamstress, and then found out he got me for three hundred fake leathers. I'd never buy nothing off the street. Charlemagne, have you ever got scam? I'm sure you got scared me for me. I got scammed

once that. I can remember this when I used to sell crack, because I was what you call a quarterspooing guy. So that's seven grams of crack. And I got a little sporty and decided I wanted to start selling half half ounces, which is fourteen grams a crack. But the persons in front of me that half ounces crack gave me some crack that was cooked with this product called isotall. Some majority of the crack was like ice a tall. It was like isotol and just a little bit of cocade.

And he gave me that and said, just give me five hundred dollars back. But I couldn't sell it because it was majority product. Shut up, So it was trash. You know what I'm saying. I don't even know what ice crack. I don't know the moral of the story is I still up? Jacamo, bro Bro. They got me where they tried to, Man, I was gone. I was looking for some football tickets, man, uh, the Sames versus Bucks.

I'm down in Tampa, and I found a dude on Craig's list that had some tickets, like some bomb seats, all of that stuff. It was about seven hundred bucks. So you know, I hit him up like, yo, man, I can get these tickets, but you know, work with me on the price. Got them down to like six hundred or whatever. And you know, I was like, but I gotta see it like through Ticketmaster, Like I gotta use it through Ticketmaster. I've seen you the money, but I want to see my tickets on my ticket Master app.

So he sent me the tickets through Ticketmaster before I even paid him. Sounds good to me, right, I'm looking at I got my verification email, all that good stuff. I go ahead and I pay the dude, I get the tickets. You know, I'm looking at my tickets everything like. So the next morning was like the day before the game. The next morning they hit me up the ticket Masters does and say, Joe, these tickets was a pain. Fortunately we're taking them back and nothing you could do about it.

Your money gone, damn right. So like I'm calling trying to figure out what to do. Nothing Ticketmasters like, look, we send an email that says make sure that these tickets are being transferred by somebody, you know, if it's not paying through Ticketmaster, that we could do. So I called the banking was like yo, I don't know what the hell cash happ is something I don't Somebody had me, Joe, I don't know what none of that is. The bank

gave me pack my money. I don't know. Yeah, but because if you say that you spent that money on cash app, you send that money and you didn't get it. That's that's one thing. They say, Well, you verified that purchase, but I said, I never. I don't even know what cash happened. I'm gonna be honest with y'all. Don't know why y'all use cash app. That's I love cash ap, cash up. You just gotta make sure you said it's the right person. I don't know. Man, eight hundred five

eight five one oh five one. Have you ever been scammed? Call us? Now? It was the breakfast clubs. Don't everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the breakfast club and now if you just joined us, we're talking about getting scammed. Have you ever been scammed before? Sound like I got scammed the worst? I said, I got scammed the worst, eight thousand dollars. I would still be looking for that guy. Listen, he's indicated. Joy, I'm

about to post his information Yron byron Vy. You got scammed before, bro? Yeah, man, I got scam man less tax season. Man, I was. I was waiting on my money, you know, my refund, and I you know, I end up calling the IRS on the Google site, and the Google site had a bogus number on there, so I call it and the man and getting on my info blase blase, you know, I check and see the website where uh where you checked your status or or whatever. And I end up seeing the payment that already went

through and whatever. You know what I'm saying, The payment had already been submitted. You know, I wasn't dependent anymore. Well I knew right right, and there I've been scammed by whoever I was on the phone so somebody to get tax money. Yeah yeah, I end up getting it back, you know, but it was probably like like a year and a half later. You know. Wow. Let me just tell people, the I arrest is not gonna call you and say you have to make a payment by five

PM from an automated phone call. It's not gonna happen. I know that they send it out a lot of those automated phone calls. I get them all the time. You will be arrested by five o'clock if you don't send five hundred dollars. Those are fake And I was gonna tell you that that I'm not gonna call you. No, they're not gonna call you. Hello. Who's this hey, Jamilla? You ever been scammed before? Yeah? I actually helped pay

down a camera not a camera camera. I can't hit you. Yeah, because I was trying to find a place to rent and I had looked up this place on Craigli that I heard these stories. Yeah, yeah, man, And you know they were like, oh, come meet me at the house. You're getting the food. We just need to like to move, we need YadA, YadA YadA. Well when I get there, you know the to rent signed out there had a

different number. So something just told me, like I just told my brother, I'm like, bro, call that number and see if somebody answers. So when he called them that the lady on the phone she was um the project manager, I guess or whatever, but she was just saying that people had already been getting scam by these same people. So we got on the phone with the investigator who was already investigating scam and they would like just stay

there there. They were on the way, and so were the people that were supposed to meet me at the house. So when when everybody got there, we got the people and they got locked up. Wow. And I just want to tell people that, you know, some of the biggest scams are the i RS saying that they call that's a scam. Also when you're trying to book somebody, like a lot of people try to book artists for shows and they have the wrong book and agent people get

them for that as well. Oh you know what US is a big scam that people get caught with all the time when they say, you get an email from someone that looks like somebody you know, and it's like, I'm traveling, I don't have any money, I've lost my money. That I've seen people get scammed that way. Yeah, So just be careful out there. Do your homework. Now, I show a cash app not a scam, of course, not app. Okay, Now, Kendrick's back here now if you haven't heard, Kindred's out.

In turn lost nine hundred eighty dollars. She cashed app somebody four hundred dollars. She cast after the rong person. Then she Google cash fund refund number, cash app refund cash app. You can only go get a refund through their app. You have to contact them that where you

can't call. That's told me afterwards. And then when I looked at the call number to see where it was from, it was a New Jersey number, which is not where the headquarters are for So she called the cash app refund number, gave the person the information because she wanted her money back, and then they cleared out her account. So what's your fund? Answers like, No, Kendrew, you a young college student, just trying to make it in these streets. And thank God that I have people around me who

have looked out for me. And you know who are these people? It not be boys that you're sleeping with Kindred to mama. Everybody, well she looked, she looked out for me. Okay with CHARLEMAGNEI, I think we should break it down and we should give it back to dollars. Don't do that. Let's give Kendra back her money. Don't start crying yet because I don't understand what we're doing right, Noddra, I love you, but I'm not sure this. We should give her works hard for us, she works for me.

I think we should all come together and give her they could do the most lesson and give back the money you lost. Is not the lesson, I don't think. I don't know why Envy saying this. Yes, we should give we should break it down and give Kindred back the money. I always want to be a dote I needed as a child, but sometimes you got to learn to take these oults. It was a learning lesson and it wasn't exactly I was. I was definitely naive to believe there's the person who I was on the phone.

Three hundred and twenty six dollars each. We should get you. Not much money when I was younger, but a lot we kenned. It was parties that I threw that didn't work. I used to have to get people to call track okay likes. I don't understand. I don't. I don't like this life lesson. Yeah, she works. Are you gonna give my three youna give me three to twenty six minute? I don't know. I think Abouney, I love Kindred. This is my partner. I got to think about this. I worked.

What is the lesson in this? What are we teaching these kids and if they when they get scared, we just give them their money back. When you wish you and you got scanned. Who gave me your money back? Nobody exactly when you who gave me? But I her money back? I just gonna like, I just want to say something because it's just about back a lot of feelings that hurt from my youth. Yes, and I just looked at Kennedy's information and look what somebody said about him.

Sorry excuse for a contractor, do not hire this man. He was supposed to remodel our massive bathroom but only partially finished it. Then guess what he did. He stole ten thousand dollars of their money and stole jewelry from the house and just disappeared. Look at that, and that person ain't getting the ten grand back, all the jewelry back money as we care. She saved, she saved the harder money. The clear Endre ain't coming here one time.

I can like, you need nothing, You need some money, Kendre, Yes, yes, yes, yes, you don't know if that's the lesson that need to give you, don't give it that money. Man. That ain't the way, like I don't work. We're giving these kids the wrong impression. Guy is crazy. That's not how life works. Guys crazy, I'm serious. Kind if he don't give you the money. He was in here crying lesson a crying front of me because you were here that day. Yeah, and you were late. We got rumors on the way. Yes,

let's talk about Linzo ball. Is he leaving big ball of brand for not? Key will tell you what's going on the next time. You gotta get his breakfast. Kender you getting a little something breakfast every morning, you know, shout out to Uncle Charlotte. You always look all of you look out. Appreciate his breakfast tomorrow. But life, I don't know yet. I gotta think about this. I gotta see what God tell me about how to give you this money. Be honest with all right, rumors on the way,

it's the breakfast club. Good morning listen. Oh my gosh, the rumor report. God got angel, it's the rumor report breakfast club. Hardie d When she was on Instagram Live, she was talking about people who were criticizing her, saying that she doesn't deserve to be in the position that she's in. And here's what she said, Oh I did so yeah, yeah, And that's what I used to No, No, that don't sound like a new video. That's that's an

old video. Well, she's setting the story straight on what she what she meant by that, because she is going to be writing a book about her life. I'm a rapper. I'm a bitch that came from the streets, that came to the industry. I wasn't a Disney Channel star. I wasn't a nun, I wasn't a saint. I'm a good hearted person, but I have done up, and y'all don't gotta worry about it. Y'all don't gotta tell my story. Y'all want to know why ya don't gotta tell my story?

Because I'm gonna write a book about my life. I've been through a lot of Yeah, you can use your past experiences as a teachable moment, but you know, it just has to be presented properly. And I think that we probably should have read about that and her her book. It didn't sound right on. I'm sure somebody pulled up that old clip and it is absolutely positively foul. But I would say one thing about Cardy b I mean, we all know Cardy being here, she is genuinely a

good person. Yeah, but you know, I mean, here's it was foul. It was CARDI was a Grammy as NYC Scripple. If you think the Scrippers were not here drugging men and robbing them, setting dudes up to be robbed and you are bugging your God, doesn't make it right right at all. But if that's her story, teachable moment, do tell, but it has to be presented properly. Got to read this book all right. Now. There's some new allegations against

Alex Roger Guest. There's a former Playboy playmate that is saying that he was sexting her and begging for a threesome right before he proposed to j Lowe. According to model Zoe Gregory, she's forty four years old. She said that he sent her a picture of his privates and had a text asking for the names of fun girls for me and for him. She said he was being a dirty dog. He seemed like a needy, horny bloke. If he's doing this right up until the point he

is proposing to her, it is just not fair. Yea. His name is not Alex Jenkins or Alex for there before. He's not a black man. His last name is Rodriguez, So it's possible that was like six to eight weeks before he proposed. So we don't know where they were in their relationship. Black men don't cheat. I don't know about it now. A Rod also allegedly was giving her all comes of compliments and asking for a naughty videos and for a rendezvous with the third person in San Francisco.

I don't believe that. We don't know. I believe when people see somebody happy the way a Rod and jay Loo is happy, people just want to throw things out there. What proof does she have? It is but she has the mess messages, but we don't know you can make a messages? She absolutely well, she has pictures of his penis and muscily. His penis, you don't know yet. How do you know that's his penis and his muscily that I'm just telling how you ll asking for questions evidence

and she saying she has now. She did say these messages began the day after Christmas and they suddenly stopped in late January. Does this penis looked like it's been suffering from some type of steroid? Jus, do you want us to show you the pictures? No, Okay, that's what it sounded like. I'm cool. I want to see a Rod or no Rod. You want to see Michael Jackson doing to all Right, now, Lonzo ball it looks like he might be leaving Big Baller Brand for Nike. We

told you before it. Well, I don't know if we talked about this story, but he did cut ties with one of the founders of Big Baller Brand, one of the co founders, Alan Foster, over the weekend. After well, he has a co founder, so it wasn't just his

dad by himself. He allegedly stole one point five million dollars from him and then later on he posted a picture on Instagram and he had the tagline It's only a crazy dream until you do it, and then he said moving on to bigger and better hashtag my own man. So the rumor is he might be leaving and going on to Nike. Now, Lebron said, I love the fact that he's taking control of his ish. I mean, that's what's really dope to me. Once I saw that story, I had just seen a kid turning into a man.

This is my career and I'm taking this. I'd done had enough with whatever I'd done had enough. If I'm going to be successful, I'm not going to be successful in my terms. I saw a lot of that. We'll see. So whatever he desires to do, he said, Nike would obviously welcome him. Why do't even think he's leave a big baller brandes because he fired somebody who was stealing

from him? Though? Well, I guess because he did the tag line from Nike on Instagram and posted a photo and then said moving on the bigger and better right? Did that just to scare everybody? Now? A Lonzo's manager also took the big ball of brand shoes and threw them in the trash. Okay, now we're getting on social media along with the hashtag dump your merch right, So I still don't get him, even if my dad owns a part of it, I'm just gonna leave my dad's company.

We can't figure this out. This is my dad does own the company, didn't. I didn't think he was leaving Nike until you told me to think about the trash can. I mean leaving big ball of man. He told me to think about the trash can. But I'm with you. Just because you fire somebody don't mean that you should

dump your company altogether. It's just some hints right now, so people are thinking that perhaps this might be happening, you know, he might be moving on, all right, I Manela yee, and that's your rumor report, Thank you, miss Yea. And I try the new flavors if Arns Vanilla and Arns Vanilla Coke zero sugar. Yeah you heard that right, Fam, and I have to tell you it's a great combination of coke orange and vanilla flavor. Head to your closest

retailer today and try him out. Thanks, Fam, Now continue v Fam. Yes, sir, you got Donkey Day coming. Man. I haven't visited the state of Florida in about a week, but today we got a good one. Hey, listen, I don't go seeking out stories from Florida. Florida's stories from Florida. Seek out me, all right, shout out to our fam in Florida. Fam, you my goodness. All right, when we come back Donkey to Day, don't move, it's to breakfast club. Good morning. Make sure you're telling them to watch out

for Florida. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of the Florida. Yes, you are a donkey, a Florida man a chap and atm for a very strange reason. It gave him too much money. Florida man is arrested. I can definitely say he rigged the door to his home and an attempt to electrocate his pregnant wife. Police arrested in Orlando man for talking a Flaminia to breakfast club Bitchy Donkey other day with Charlom Hain't a guy.

I don't know why y'all keeping letting him get you elected. Wow Donkey today for Tuesday in March twenty six, goes to a Florida couple named Gelanda and McCain. Alexandra, what did your uncle Charlotte tell you all the time? People, the craziest people in America come from the bronx in

all of Florida. You know, It's always interesting when I hear about Florida couples, though, because it's a harsh reminded that crazy Florida men married crazy Florida women and have crazy Florida kids, therefore ensuring that the cycle of Florida crazy will never be broken. Now, mckinson is thirty four years old and Gelanda is twenty seven years old and they have eight kids. Okay, you know, you really might need to limit the amount of kids certain couples in

Florida can have. You may not agree with me now, but you might have to hear this story. Now. A wife loaded up all the kids into an suv, picked up her husband at work, and went to the park. I love this part of the story because these kids need exercise. Let them go run around the park way better than letting them sit in front of the TV or on their smartphones all day. Now, the Alexandras let their eight kids play for about an hour and then they went home, and that's when the action started. Let's

go to WPEC CBS twelve for the report. Police, a two year old girl abandoned at a West Palm Beach park is safe. That's the good news. But LEAs say though her parents left her, not realizing she was gone until fourteen hours later. The Palm Each County Sheriff's Office put out this photo of an adorable two year old girl. They found her here at have Her Hill Park in West Palm Beach, about a mile away from her home, roaming Friday night alone Saturday morning. Deputies say these parents,

Joelanda and Mackinson. Alexandra reported that child missing nearly fourteen hours after they say they left her at the park. The Department of Children and Families removed seven other children from their custody. Deputies arrested the Alexandres. They now each face a charge of neglecting a child. Now, let me play white Devil's advocate for a minute. They got eight kids, all right? I got three? How much you got five? After? Why they all start looking alike? Okay, I listen, listen.

I got three girls, okay, my oldest is ten. Then I got a three year old and a six month old. I called a six month old by the three year old name all the time, end of that, and vice versa. And I only got three. But they don't look alike look alike. This couple got in so I can understand this a little bit. Not to mention, we don't know what these people are. Education level is they were raised in Florida. You ever heard a little duvall? Try to count? Okay?

What if these people can only count to five? No? Seriously, hard to do a headcount when you can only count to five one, two, three, four, five? Hey, hey man, y'all in here yes, daddy, yes, mommy, all right, we are. The only time these people remember they got all their kids is during tax season. I guarantee when it comes to that child tax credit, they are fully aware they have eight kids. Any other time, it's like how many kids you got? I don't know, six? Seven? Okay, Now

I'm gonna tell y'all something. A lot of y'all listening to this story, and I can feel your fear. All right, I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, this is exactly how the new movie US started. All right, Yes, thank god, this young two year old was found safe and sound. But how do we know that she didn't come face to face with her own evil twin? How do we know that in the future, this two year old won't lead a much larger movement of bloodthirsty invaders called the

telor the telor whatever the hell they called. Okay, what's scary about this is that, too, you just start talking, so you don't even know if this young lady can talk here or not. So it's a good chance the real life US could start in Florida. So I feel you fear about this, but I'm here to let you know that if there's ever a tethered movement. It won't start in Florida. You know why, because if I was one of the tether living underground and one of these

abandoned underground tunnels. As soon as I realized I was living under Florida, or my doppel ganga was a Floridian, I'm gonna just chill it out here and eat this rabbit. Okay, I'm good, all right, I'm missing nothing. Just a little son to beat you too, you know, finger liking Disney World. I'm good. Call me when my doppel ganga moved to Georgia, the Carolinas, something else. Okay, then I'll go kidnap her and I'll be fine. Other than that, I'm gonna tucket

down here forever. Now. Sadly, the Florida Department of Children and Families has removed all eight kids from the home and the parents have been arrested in charge with one count of neglect. All right, These kids do not need to be in the system, though, they don't need to be property of the state, which this family needs. Clearly, it's extra assistance, all right. Things can get overwhelming when you have the money to take care of a lot of kids. So I can imagine how it is and

you don't have a lot of money. I can't personally wait until we get to a place in America where we helped the less fortunate instead of punishing them for being less fortunate. But in the meantime, please give mckinston and Jelanda Alexandra to sweet sounds of the Hamletones. Oh no you are dogee, Oh the day, the dogee, oh the day. I'm actually questioning myself right now. This is a case of being misfortunate or just being being neglectful.

These are your kids. These ain't like puppies. It's like home alone, like they left. Shut up. These are you just forgot one kid? Shut up? That was a movie. This is real life. I'm saying it is if you got eight kids, though, bless you see, it's if you got eight kids. It's usually the older one as you were supposed to get the little one, and that they have your Yeah, I want kids to be kids. I'm not I'm the parent. I'm not telling the older kid look out for your little young Nope, that's all on me.

Your mom never left you somewhere, not that I know of. But if you're about if you're in school. The teachers aren't expected to forget a kid. They have a lot more to deal with that one. It's very true too. A teacher would be in you right, they got what they deserve. Teacher would be in a lot of trouble if this happened. Absolutely eight of them, though eight it's a lot teachers be having like thirty kids. They don't

leave one and then that theirs. All right, all right, well thank you, y'all got to do account okay, one, two, three, four, five, six one. And if you're from Florida, all right, thank you for that. Dog get to day. When we come back, we have Mayor Pete. Right, what's his last name? Scared say last name? Yes, I May Pete bodh Judge booty judge Boo Boodha Judge. That's why May Pete Boodha Judge. Okay, that masking, that's why I just said May and Pete should have left me. Man Pete, Man Pete, is I

like Man Pete the man? He's running for president of the United States of America. You had another Democratic Democratic presidential candidate. All right, so we'll kicking with May and Pete when we come back. Don't move as the breakfast Club. Come on in the breakfast Club morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. He's running for president in twenty twenty. Pete Buddha, Judge, good to

meet you. Man same here, thanks for Redman. And you're a you're a mayor. That's right, I'm the mayor South Bend, Indiana. And you're pretty young still. Yeah. I was twenty nine when I became mayor. Are you like the youngest mayor? I'm up there. For a while, I was the youngest mayor for a city with more than one hundred thousand people. But that's one of those things you only stand to

lose over time. How does the young man handle all that power at twenty nine years old, Well, you make sure you're a good listener and you try to make good decisions and uh, you know. The thing is, I think anytime you arrive in any office, if you have a plan and you have a vision of where things need to go, but you're also willing to take advice and you're willing to take in put in the community, then you learn how to make good decisions, and you know,

it's a decision making job. It's an executive job. It's everything from economic development, of public safety, police and fire. You don't come in on day one being an expert on all of those things, but you surround yourself with people who can give you good advice. And then you're always always out in the community listening to what people have to say. We go into the neighborhood centers, we're going to the churches. Even just on Twitter and stuff.

You learn what's going on. And if you make a decision that didn't work out, you learn that pretty quick and you get smarter. So Maya Pee, let's talk about your background and what brings you here today, because you've known from a young age that you wanted to be a public survey. Yeah. So I grew up in you know, South Spends, one of these cities where they tell you as you grow up that success means getting out. And so that's what I did. I went away to school.

I got into Harvard study there, got a Rhad scholarship to study overseas. I went into that. But the further away I got from home, the more I began to realize that actually really cared about my city. It was a low income city. We're on the map because of Notre Dame. But what they don't realize is that our city's story, like a lot of places in the Midwest, is also about the economic destruction that happened when the

auto factories left. So we were a car making town and in the sixties we lost those companies and became a very low income city, and so the city for for years was just looking its wounds, trying to figure out what we were going to be. And the reason I ran was that I did believe in the city. I believed we could grow. But it wasn't about It

wasn't make South ben great again. It wasn't turned back the clock right, because everybody was there was this kind of attitude that the only way we could ever live well was if we rewound into the past right. And it turns out that the past was not ever quite as good as advertised, not for everybody exactly exactly. So

it's not about turning back the clock. It's about seeing these changes that are coming, changes in technology, changes with globalization, and instead of pretending we can stop them and rewind, talking about how we can make these changes work for us how we can use the changes in technology to grow jobs. What are we going to do to make our lives better? So we've got to make sure we're doing more about public education right to prepare for the future.

We've got to make sure that we are making healthcare available to more people. To ACA the Obamacare, that was a good step. It made a big difference in my family. What are we going to do that public education? Before you move on from that, because it has been something that we've been struggling with for so long. Well, a big part of it, I think is teacher pay. So I'm married to a teacher, and is that right? So you know, you know how hard that work is. I

think we've got to respect teachers. We got to treat them more like soldiers, and we got to pay them more like doctors. And the way I would do it is would we would have federal support for boosting teacher pay, but we would direct it to Title one schools, the schools that have the most students on free and reduced lunch, the schools in communities that have the most economic and racial inequity. Because we know the value of recruiting the best teachers, we know the difference that can make in

a child's life. You also had the opportunity to work for our former president Obama, but you didn't do it right. Yeah, you know, yeah, I got a job offer. It was two thousand and four. I was gradually I was trying to think about what to do because I narrowed it down to two jobs. I got a policy job offer with the Obama campaign he was running for Senate back then, or an offer to go work for John Kerry on the presidential And my thinking was, you know, Obama's probably

gonna win anyway. I'm probably not gonna make that big of a difference on his Senate race, and you know, you have this presidential going on, Like, how can I not do that? So I jumped out on the presidential. Obviously we didn't win, but in a way I'm better off because you know, that defeat taught me a lot. And then I went back to my studies, went overseas, studied philosophy, politics and economics, and then went into business and then started on the path that led to my

coming home and deciding to run from me. And now, have you faced a lot of people that were critical of you because I know on politics he's a lot of homophobia and you're openly gay. Have there been any issues that you had to deal with head on? There's some. Yeah, there's a lot of ugliness, especially online, but not for the most part. So when I came out, it was actually the middle of a re election campaign and I had just kind of had enough. I'd been overseason in Afghanistan.

I realized you only get to one live, live one life, and I knew that, you know, I want to start dating and have a have a life like everybody weren't even dating because you didn't win anybody. No, because if you're if you're a sitting mayor and you're not out like, it's not like you can you know you're gonna get spotted. And I didn't want to live a life that was kind of in hiding either, So I just didn't have

much of a personal life. I mean, I'm in my thirties, I'm a veteran, I'm a sitting mayor, and I got no idea what it's like to be in love. And I just thought that's I got to put an end to that. So I realized personally that it was time. But inconveniently, there was a reelection going on, and in a very conservative state, you know, Indiana. Mike Pence was the governor of Indiana. Oh my god, that guy was talking about the conversion therapy. Christ Uh, I'm shocked, still alive. Well,

but here's the thing. So, so I came out. We didn't know what would happen, We didn't know what the political consequences would be. And what wound up happening was I got re elected with eighty percent of the vote. But the biggest lesson I learned is that if you just get out there and try to do a good job for people, you can count on people to judge you for that. And it's like, Wow, a politician who was not lying in the easiest thing to do with keep that lying like that, you don't have to give

them net. Yeah, but that puts so much pressure on your integrity. So when was the decision to run for president? And was your husband really supportive of that or was he lay up? It took a little getting used to for him, because you know, he's not a He's a wonderful guy, he's engaging, he cares about issues in politics, but he's not you know. He reminded me that on our first date. He asked me kind of what the future would look like, and I told the answer I

gave him was the truth. But but at the time, the answer I gave him was, Look, I'm in a reelection. If I do well and I get a second term as mayor, and that goes really well, and I do a good job, then maybe in twenty twenty, maybe I get a look for running statewide in Indiana, run for governor. Maybe you ain't seven president, right, yeah, yeah, exactly. So

you know, this is a big change. But we're in this moment where having somebody from our generation, the generation that provided most of the troops after nine to eleven, the generation that's going to be dealing with climate change for the rest of our lives, the generation that could be the first generation in American history to be worse off than our parents economically if we don't make some changes.

And also, I think somebody at a moment when the party, my party, the Democratic Party, has lost touch with big parts of the country and there are some very clumsy efforts to get back in touch with the Midwest, and and I want to build as somebody who comes from the Heartland, comes from Indiana, comes from a conservative place. I want to build those bridges. Yeah, I read that you are a fan of Eminem. Yeah, which is interesting because you are a gay man and he's adding homophobic lyrics.

Is that tradiction? Yeah, it kind of is. The thing I appreciated about Eminem is that there was a sense of militant pride from a place like Detroit. But but yeah, it's not like you can excuse and I think he's been trying to deal with it too. It's not like you can excuse the homophobia. What about you. I do not approve of their politics, but I kind of approve of their chicken and you my kind of guy. So maybe maybe if nothing else, I can build that bridge.

We just live in this era of ex screams, like people can't see nuancing things anymore. Well, especially because we've got to find a way to use our identities to reach other people. What can we talk about that that brings us together? What do you know? I think good art has that, good music has that, good good literature has that. Good chicken sandwiches, good chicken sand and good politics.

And I think we've we've got to get back to that before this current presidency just completely tears us a party all we got more with may and Pete when we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Enzy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. We talk

with Maya, Pete Charlemagne. What is your Black Virginia especially And I always ask Democrats that because we've been so loyal to the Democratic Party for so long, Really, what do you specifically want to do for the African American community? Right? And that's the right question because I think, you know, if we start taking parts of our coalition for granted, it's going to be a huge mistake. So I think an agenda for Black America needs to focus on black entrepreneurship,

black homeowners. Yea. We need to focus on public education, like we were talking about before. We need to talk about health because there are huge disparities everything from diabetes to maternal and infant mortality, huge racial inequity of that, and we got to talk about criminal justice, all of those things. Public education again, focusing on Title one school housing. The segregation in our neighborhoods did not just happen. It happened on purpose. So it's going to take intentional work

to change that. Ye. Well, part of it is where you send resources, right, I mean, it's why. It's why, for example, Representative Clyburne's ten twenty thirty plan is really important, taking a certain amount of federal resources making sure that they go to communities where at least twenty percent of people who have been in poverty for at least thirty years. You said something, you said, you know, it has to be intentionally worked on, And I think people are missing

the whole idea of this conversation of reparations. You know, everybody keep talking about reparations. It's not about just handing out checks. It's about, you know, the idea of dismantling white supremacy. Because things were systemically done to black people, what I created this socioeconomic gap. Exactly, things have to be systemically undone. So way do you stand on yeah, exactly. I mean, look, some of the people in this country used to own some of the other people in this country.

You can't just say the moment you turn about it. I mean you can't just say, like the moment you release that that everything's going to work itself out. Intention went into getting things the way they are, and so it's going to have to go into fixing it and so h you know, I think that the idea of reparations is the idea of when something is broken, we fix it, that's wrong, we write it where it goes

off to rails. Like you're saying, is you know, people are picturing kind of checking the mail and when when it's framed that way, there's a lot of people who can't picture how that could be done in a way that's fair. But when we talk, you know, a lot of my campaign language so far has been built about intergenerational justice, right the idea that every generation has obligations to others. I talk about it largely in terms of climate change. Well you could apply that here too, intergenerational

justice right now. So let's talk about that, right. I mean, there is a direct relationship between what happened in the past and what's happening now. So let's be honest about how we got here and honest about the fact that whether we're deciding how to allocate housing resources or whether we're just tearing down some of the structural barriers that have been built up. I don't want to go straight to criminal justice reform, because again I'm excited about black

entrepreneurship and black homeownership. But we also got to talk about, for example, when we are reforming the war on drugs, we know the War on drugs didn't, right, what are we going to do about if we decide that actually doesn't make sense to incarcerate people for unbelievably long amounts of time for non violent drug offenses. What are we going to do for the people that we already did

that and I already have lost so much? Right? I mean, are they going to have an experience that's not so different from the experience that the end of slavery that says, Okay, I took off your chains, so I'm sure things are going to go great for you now, right. Are we going to do the same thing to people coming out of incarceration and say, Okay, that's over, you know, good luck? Or are we going to have some intention around lifting them up, empowering them to contribute and thrive in our

communities and in our society. Now, what about Elizabeth Warren talking about the electoral college and wanting to get rid of that whole system. What do you think about the electoral college. Absolutely. From day one, I've been talking about how the electoral college has to go. Look, whether you live in a state like mine, Indiana, or a state like here, New York, you know, what we have in common is that in most presidential elections, our voice doesn't

even matter. And you know, people say, well, what about you know, making sure these states have a say the states don't vote? People vote right, And, at risk of sounding simple minded, I just think the person who wins, the person who gets the most votes out of be a person who wins. I like your simple minding this mayor pete, thank you y. That's how Americans think. Yes, if you get more votes, you should win, right, and we've allowed sometimes something gets twisted and then we get

used to it. You know, another issue is that DC is not a state. Right, So if you live in DC, you're telling me, like, your problems aren't the same as or as important as my problems. Why shouldn't you get a senator fighting for you the way I got a senator fighting for me. So you know, but somewhere along the line, you know, DC wasn't a state, and now we just grew up with that, and we're used to that, and we think it's okay. Same with the electoral College.

You know, it's kind of always been this way. When I became mayor and we had to make a lot of changes in the way our city was run because it was kind of old fashioned. We needed to tune it up. One thing that that was just you were not allowed to say to me, was we're doing it this way because we always done it this way. Right That I never want to hear we've always done it

this way. If we've always done it this way for a very good reason, fine, But if we've always done it this way just because, then it's time for a change. And it's that way with the electoral College. And and by the way, you know, the history of how the electoral College came about partly had to do with not

trusting the people to make their own decisions. And it also had to do with a lot of negotiations and compromises going on around slavery, around how the the original power structure of the US was going to be set up. Some of these things are very ripe for a change. It's the right thing to do. I'm glad man. I have so much mixed emotions with you because I just it's a damn shame. And I don't trust an honest politician. You're telling the truth exactly you're sitting seems like he's

telling the truth. Like, what the hell is going on with our politicians? Well, you get coached, not too And I think people are ready for something different. And I think that's generational too. I think our generation expects you to communicate in plain English and to say what you think and be authentic, and even when they don't agree with you, they're going to give you some credit for saying what you think, for being motivated by your values and that whatever it is you do, believe you came

by it honestly. Yeah. I like ideas. I like solutions to problems that we have. Like, one thing that I'm always concerned about is the payways gap between men and women. Yes, so what are some things that we can do to make sure that we finally start making the same amount of money as our male counterparts. Well, it's amazing how far transparency will go toward clearing some of those things up. So one thing we could do is we could establish a rule that says and the Obama administration moved in

this direction and now it's getting reversed. But it says, if you're an employer, at least of a certain size, you need to disclose the gap in pay between men and your organization and women in your organization. And sometimes they'll say, you know, well, it's there's an explanation for this because people are in different kinds of job titles. Fine, then you better explain it, but you need to be prepared to explain it and defend it. And the first step towards that is being able to see it. So

you know, transparencies worked well for us. We use we put a lot of our data online, even data that's very uncomfortable for us, like the number like uses of force. We actually have a thing you can look up on the City South Bend website how many times an officer

is used force, like the case by case. So my point is just by putting that data out into the world, putting that information out there, I think it made us all better and it actually helped build trust because when something went wrong, we all had the same set of facts and when something's going right, we can show that. But it changes our behavior and I think companies will behave differently if they were required to be more transparent

about things like gender paid disparities among their employees. Hey, Peter, Pete, Buddha judge. It was a pleasant meeting human. I know, with dream Selling season and all these candidates and telling the things we want to hear. But I feel like you're moved right. Some text messages before you came up here, like, oh, you have Mayor Pete coming up to the show. He's a great guy. You're gonna like some of his policies and he's right talking to him. I really like him

a lot, So we appreciate you. How can people donate to your campaign? Also, thank you so much for asking. So if you go to Pete for America dot com. Our website is pretty basically not going to make people go that's right. Yeah, I figured i'd be all too hard, So it's just Pete for America dot com. But we need even if you just give us your email in your zip code so that when we're doing something in your area, we can let you know we need those donations and and even just you know, it doesn't have

to be a thousand dollars check. Don't get me wrong, you are more than welcome part of what we're trying to do is to show how many people support it, so it could be three bucks or even just support the idea of me, you know, doing well long enough to be on that debate stage. And then I'll close the deal from up there. That's my job, close the deal, my man, Pete Booty Judge, good to meet you, man,

Thank you for coming. Thank you. It's club, the Breakfast Club holding everybody's DJ and Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Little ouzi Vert. This is the rum of report with Angela Ye. Well, looks like rock Nation is stepping in to help out little Usie Vert. He's having some issues with his record label and those issues have

went online. I don't know if you guys saw what little uzi Vert was posting about has his album dropping and that everybody has to be patient, and he said that the guilty answer all of the blogs he's been posting. Free Uzi also and DJ Drama responded, Uzie should put EA out tomorrow or any day he wants. He has me and Kennon's total support and blessings to drop it. Well, it looks like now rock Nation is going to be helping out little Uzi vert so Rock Nation to the rescue. Yes,

they are now managing little Uzi. Is what that's looking like? So I guess free Uzi. The path continues. He saw in the Drama though, right, and Drama said to put that Albut so what's the what's the problem. I know, I don't know what's going on behind the scenes. I'm sure he has his own side of the story. So you know, he said, if you want your album to drop number one, rule, don't hang with the boss's girlfriend. That's what little Ouzie posted. Who's the boss's girlfriend? I listen,

these are awesome liminals. I don't know the whole deeper meeting behind it, but I don't know which boss he's talking about, if it's Drama, if it's Cannon, if it's somebody else. But that's what he's gracious all right now. Daniel Caesar has apologized, and that was after he said this, Why are you being so mean to white people right now? Why is it that we're allowed to be disrespectful in roots to everybody else? And when anybody returns any type

of energy to us, that's not a quality. I don't want to be treated like I can't take a joke. I just went through that chapelsion and I had to acknowledge that I was being sensitive. White people haven't mean to us in the past. What are you gonna do about that? Tell me what you're gonna do about that. There's no there's no answer other than greeny understanding and keeping it moving. Now. A lot of people were saying to cancel Daniel Caesar, not to buy tickets to his shows.

Now he's realizing the error of his ways and he's offered this apology. I expressed my opinion in a very pretentious and I was talking down to you guys. You know what I'm saying. I apologize for how I expressed my ideal. That is where I went wrong. I believe in what I said as a man. I just need to umi and when he's wrong, because that's I can admit when I'm wrong. What is that splashing in the background though it sounds like he's in either a bathtub

or a pool or listen, don't apologize. If that's how you felt, that's how you felt. Stand on it all right. I guess he has a career to think about. Well, too late, buddy, all right, Now, Kodak Black is responding to Michael Rappaport's comments. Now, originally Kodak Black said the claim that he's should be compared to Tupac, Biggie, and Nas. He said, I'm better than them because I live what I wrap about. He said that in his Instagram live stream. Well,

Michael Rappaport responded, and here's what he said. Kodak Whack said that he should be looked at in the same category as Nas, Tupac, and Biggie. He also said that Tupac and Biggie only became legends because they died. You're not a dope rapper. You have no skill set, you have no flow, you have no vernacular. Without the face text, the wild hair do, and the short stitt in prison, you'd be working at ups. Michael Rappaports sounds very out

of touch. He sounds like he never listened to any Kodak Black music, Kodak Black and rap he makes dope music. And him saying that he feels like he's better than Biggie or Nahs or Pok how else is he supposed to feel. I don't agree with him, but let's stop acting like you know people thought Pop was so dope when he was alive. I guarantee you when Pop was alive, Michael Rappaport, being the New York guy that he is,

did not have good things to say about Tupac. I guarantee responded to Michael Rappaport's comments on stage during a concert. Here's what he said album I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say. You know, Michael Rapperport recently may that Meek Mills said Meek Mill wasn't a dope rapper. Then he went that code that black Mike is. Mike's just like any old school New York hip hop guys. Yes, sometimes you get stuck in your Jane shorts, your gene did them shorts,

and your timberling what I'm saying, that's all it is. Listen, remember when remember when New York didn't like Biggie No, No, don't remember remember that I was saying Biggie wasn't hip hop. J rud the damage it and I'm saying they were doing videos that was throwing fake bigger. I'm just saying there was not like that was a period individual there was a couple of people that did like those real

hip hop guys weren't feeling big at first. So all I'm simply saying is we got this romantization with Biggie and Park now, but they went through their struggles when they first was coming up as artists too, where people was questioning whether they were hip hop or not. People used to be saying Popa's whack as a rapper back when he was alive. That was mostly East Coast exactly. So I'll drop aside. You think Michael Rappaport thought Pop on the level of Big Na, I can't say what

he thought. I definitely don't think so. Wou tank tribe, I guarantee you compared to him, he used to probably always defecate the jarity. East Coast people didn't like Pop back then. That's what I'm saying, So like, yo, I feel like that's the same thing. Now You're looking at somebody like Kodak and you're like, yo, he's from the South, he's a mumble rapper. You ain't never really listening to Kodak like that. I ain't saying Kodak's on the level

of Nads, Biggie, Poc or none of those guys. I'm just saying Kodak not whack like you tried to make him, see Michael reb All right, Well I'm Angela Yee and that's your rumor report.

Man, if you're a fan of Doctor Doctor Phills podcasts Filling the Blanks listening to it today, I'm the guest on Doctor Phils podcast Filling the Blanks. We have a great conversation about, you know, mental health and my new book Shook One Anxiety Playing Tricks on Me,

which is available everywhere now. So my positive notice simply this man, instead of ignoring loss and trauma are moving quickly past them. We can choose to slow down, sit with each loss, examine it, grieve it, because it's better to sinking and experience it now than to find yourself drowning years later, and losses that had no voice. Breakfast Club, y'all finish or y'all dumb,
