I'm just mad because of court. Of course, I drove five hours to about work for two days and I get there and I'm dealing with a substitute judge and she's not familiar with my case, and so she had to dismiss it for which they reopened it because she's up in there, so I have to go back again. And before I guess the real judge. That judge was a social worker, and so she was a little lost. And to me, that's not scared. Don't putting nobody up there,

that's not familiar with all of the law. You wasted your time, right, Yeah, what did you do anyway? What do you accuse that? What are you accused of? It wasn't accused. I was going to court for violations for the father not allow me to see the child. Okay, dang you. Now this is a role reversal, yousallyed the other way around. This is even strange. I actually had to challenge the whole time of birth up until five. Then finally had to started to reach out, Hey, you

have a son and we're going a DNA test. He's a father, and immediately he went for custody and one because he was in the military and he was more stable than me, which to me is crazy, doing me, a judge of to take a child from a mother. Wow, that is ridiculous. I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say for you what I say to everybody. A child needs both parents, but a child definitely needs his mom, right, I'm sorry, mama. Alrighty, don't have a good day for you, praying for you.

And my other Rotte Wilder, Bear got poisoned by my neighbors and he died. So I've had a very bad experience with dogs. And had another dog named Budweiser that I found on the screen that was Aray and my daddy took that to the proud too. So I've had bad experiences with dogs. I

We are the Breakfast Club. Now Kevin Gates. He got a little criticism for kissing his dog. We have the audio. I want to talk about me kissing my dog and the mouth I did that. A dog has a bad tear in his mouth that kills drums.

A dog mouth cleaner than a human mouth. So we're asking eight hundred and five eight five one oh five one, do you kiss your dog? I own two dogs. I own a Belgian Mali wah uh named Enza and a German shepherd named Chuck Norris. I don't kiss them in the mouth. Um, I don't. I try not to get my mouth too close to their face anyway. Really, yeah, just you know there were tack dogs, don't. I don't want you. I don't want you in my face. I don't have any dogs that've had bad experiences with dogs

in my life. But I don't knock anybody who does let their dog lift them in the face so they kiss their dog because the dog is like your child. So it's like if if your child runs up on you and tried to kiss you the face, you're not gonna say no. You didn't have to put the reget in the room. That's drum drum because drum was upset. I wasn't upset. First of all, you have a dog, right, I haven't I had a dog yet. And you got a beard. I don't know if that means so, so

what is that? What did you like kissing your dog in the mouth. It's not like one of my favorite pastimes, an I think, But he kiss me in a mout bekass? You got your tongue no tongue, no tongue? All right? And what kind of dog cock spending? Let's kid I mean, I don't know, I don't know what your being on your dog side burns? What's dan? Yeah? What man? Now you used to kick get You used to kiss your dog? Yeah?

I used to man when you know a while though, Man, But like I said, you know, I mean one day, man, I swear to my dog the crap man inside and I'm on the couch and now I look at the dog licking button and then the kind of come over to me like like you know, we want to looking in the mouth and stuff. And I started thinking like, oh man, you just don't looking butt and taking a squad at the same time, or I can't. We can't get down with that. That's a man. I pray. I

pray that one day. I pray one day your dog walks in and sees you eating your woman's ass, and then when you try to kiss your dog, he walks away from you. What hey, I wouldn't blame the dog. I'd be like, he ain't got come on down. No, I just saw what you did. Get down with that, all right? Thank you? Brother? Hello? Who's this Jason? Hey? Jason? You you you kiss your dog? Jason? No, I do not kiss my dog. I did a Callege research paper visors about ten years ago. Talk to me, give us

some facts. They do eat pooh, and they do eat very all the bacteria ciss schools. Yes, there is bacteria the mouth that does kill other bacteria, but you do not have those bacterials in your mouth. And there's a lot of equal particular that isn't the dog's mouth that I would not walk in my mouth. Oh okay, I see that what you just said, it's very accurate. We don't have the same bacteria that dogs have a nit mouth,

so they can eat fieces and stuff. We can't handle it, bake, eat poop the animals because the bacteria that mouth will kill it, but will not kill it. So you are eating pop if you kiss your dog in the mouth. And this is why the Breakfast Club have the best listeners, because as much ignorance as we have call on this phone, we have smart guys like you. Thank you, sir, thank you. All right, Hello, who's this? Hey, I'm Samara, Good morning, how y'all doing? Good morning? Tom? Do you kiss your

dog on the mouth? No, absolutely not. Why not? I think I just think it's not you know, my father, I don't own a dog with my father and his wife. They have five dogs, and you know they keep mother to kitch him when it's on the cooks and they're all in dogs. You know, they stay in the house and that's it and they go outside. But they don't they don't do none of that in the mouth stuff. That's just that's not what we do. You know, that's we from texts, We from the shop. We don't do

all that. True, true, true, mamma. I mean it's not standing here for the most part. You know. I just saw a special on Megan Kelly on her TV shows. A systimal boy he was kissing the neighbor's dogs and he lost the arm because of it. I mean it's very rare. Yes, yeah, I mean it's very rare. I thowt they like Friday or thirst. Yeah. I think I heard that story the bacteria and yeah, I did see that. Really yeah rare. They said, it's very rare, but it's it happens and a little boy he lost his lamp

yeah arms. Yeah, And it was very sad to hear that story. So it's just a heads up to people, you know, I mean, it can happen. Do what you do, but you know, there's possibilities for everything. I would think that it would be way more one armed white people in this world. If they're back tearing from dogs at somebody should go out there and do a study about that. You know, it ain't gonna be me. We're not gonna

be statistics statistics of that. I tell you that. My God, next time I see a one on one on white person, I'm gonna be thinking, now, he kissed the dog, you kissed you, This guy kisses do What's the mother of the story. The moll of the story is never underestimate the power of a sloppy kissing a wet nose on a bad day. I don't know what that means. You

want to find out? No, I do not. I'm gonna to human resources, all right, I want to everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are the breakfast club. We got special guests in the building, sir, she's back. Mister mill Hill, Hey, how y'all doing for having me changed so drastically from when you were here last I know right exactly. Wasn't us, No, no, it wasn't you, guys, but a little bit different circumstances than

the last time I was here. Now with ESPN, was it like a Jeff Session situation where they asked you to resign, You're just gonna get right into it. No warm just now congratulation, thank you, I said that. Congratulations from getting rich. Yeah, oh yes, you know, it was a thing. It was. Look, I know when you hear am a couple party, everybody immediately caused like this is bs, like this is not the case, But in this case, it really was. I mean, I've been there twelve years,

so obviously I love the place. It's the longest job I've ever had. It's the best job I've ever had, and I think it's sort of I compared it to a relationship, and I'm sure you guys have experienced this where, uh, you know you're in love with somebody, but you realize that you have no business being together. Right, So we loved each other, you had no business being together, not at not at this point. So we are just kind

of reached the end of the road. I know that feeling sometimes you love your job and what it is that you do, but you don't love other things that come with that. Behind the scenes. Well, I think for me it was just what I didn't love is that I felt a little constrained and in the sense that there was just such a bigger opportunity to do more.

And I realized that ESPN, I mean their sports network, that's they're there to serve fans and to put on games, and we're there to talk about, you know, results, but especially in this climate, there was just a lot more that I just kind of wanted to get mixed up in. And I knew that things I wanted to get mixed up in was not going to be good business for them. Were you surprised with the good streets? Um? No, because they're considering what the company is about. Yeah, they probably

should be there. I thought. I just kind of reached a point where I wanted to be a little more active, a little more vocal, and not have to worry about email chain starting every time I said something right? Tone deaf? Were the people at ESPN to where they say, don't talk about politics when the head of state is talking about sports. Yeah, if the head of state of talking about sports, and why wouldn't sports journal Let's talk about politics.

But see, this is the thing, though, I know that people have looked at the comments that have been made by the current president Jimmy Pataro and even by the chairman of Disney by Biker. I think people took what they said a little bit too literally. Never did I hear that when it made sense, when it was newsworthy not to talk about these things, because you know, when the president inserts themselves in the NFL anthem issue and all these other things concerning sports, you have to talk

about it. That's your job and roll you have to talk about it because that's newsworthy, right. The people that complained about ESPN being too political a probably didn't appreciate the viewpoint be expressed, so they had an issue with the issues being discussed and the point of view being taken.

And it was just lazy and dumb in a stupid narrative, because it's not like when you turn to like when we were on the six o'clock Sports Center, Mike and I were talking about illegal immigration, or we were talking about healthcare, like none of that ever happened. Like we were talking about sports, and anything happening to do with politics or social justice involving sports were well within the frame of news. You feel like you had done wrong anyway,

not at all. ESPN changed my life, yeah, you know, and I mean obvious. See, um, it changes your fortune a little bit. Six million dollars get off, and I know they checked and they sat checked everything getting out all of that. I am not here to confirm any of those details, all right. I just want everybody out there to know. Man, I just say again, you never heard a figure come out of my mouth? All right, Never say it's not true either. Again, no figures have

come out of my mouth. All right. If it wasn't too, you'd be like you got legally she can't see in the mouth. But but here's the thing. You didn't move to La too. Now that ain't La and cheat. Look. I got about twenty five hustles out here because I'm out here. One of lebron documentary Shut Up and Dribble, which is available on Showtime on demand. I thought I throw that in there. And I'm also you know, Saffrida

at the Atletic. So I got jobs, you know, and you your own production comes at my own production union. Thank you. I mean I'm trying to A friend once told me a long time ago that you gotta have five hustles, So I got three. Sony two more so if y'all got something for me, you know, let me know. All right, Hey, we can all invest in some stuff. I'm saying, you've got six millions. You want to talk about some hustles. You mentioned you you do have a

scripted show I heard with Kelly Carter coming and Hi. Yeah, so we're working on a scripted comedy um with that's being developed by Sony also with Gabrielle Union as a producer, not as as in front of the camera. And this is the thing. You know, as a journalist, you're storyteller and you guys know, you know, you collect some crazy stories the longer you're in the media game. And uh, you know, being a black creative now it's hot in Hollywood.

This is like a totally different um sort of experience and I think than what it used to be. And so looking at Netflix dropping that Billy on Content and Hulu and Amazon and all these different places we wanted to get into storytelling but doing it in a little bit of a different way. All right. We got more with Jamil here when we come back, do move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, The Breakfast Club. Cj Envy, Angela Yee Charlomagne to God. We are to breakfast club.

We have Jamal Hill in the building. Yee. You know what I wanted to ask you about. I thought about you yesterday, right. I was at the Gracie Awards and

they honored Pam Oliver. She was the keynote speaker. And I hear this all the time from women who have to work in sports, who choose to work in sports, how much harder it is because and especially being a black woman working in sports, not just from people that weigh in and comment on your abilities, but also from co workers, like she talked about the beginning of her career, which is, you know, earlier than the beginning of your career, but just even like offering her services to help out

and no one wanted her help just because she was a black woman. What has your experience been like, Well, there is definitely a level of scrutiny and criticism that you faced that will be a lot different than the men. And I don't know how we got to this point or I just always was amused by the fact that even though for many years I worked alongside men that never played professional sports, I had a better high school sports career than a lot of them did it all right?

I started every year. I was like, all right, that's what I'm talking about it, Like I had some little small college offers, and a lot of dudes didn't even do that. But yet, when it comes to talking about sports and being involved in sports, for some reason, we think your level of sports and knowledge is directly related to your genitalia. And that's just not the way that

it works. And so, you know, for me, I had to of course realize that a lot of times when I write something or my commentary, especially if it's scoring against what conventional mail analysts say, then you have to be prepared for the fact that people are going to say that's why women shouldn't talk about sports. I remember, and I still like to you know, the few times I'm actually right about things, I still like the Lord

this over, folks. I remember when Khalil Mack was coming out in the draft and I saw him play against Ohio State and he was the best player on the field, and I was like, look, I know, Jadeveon Clowney had you know, the hit of all hits against Michigan, but like, Khalil Mack is the best player in this draft. Man so many dudes rip me to shreds for saying that. All I gotta say is how you like me now? Because Khalil Back is probably the best defensive player in

the league, him or Aaron Donald. That's interesting though, because skip bells ain't never write about nothing. But I cannot think of one time skim Bell has has been right about something. You know, he had told a few things here and there. But that's what I'm saying is that, like you know, he has an edgy opinion. And while he is ridicute for that opinion at times, but it's still more welcome for him to have that kind of

opinion as opposed to me. We all make mistakes at times writing things that may not be true, or make a mistake. Do you bad predictions? It's okay, I'm just predicted the Giant who's gonna win this year. We knew that lesson too, just like Super Bowl every year for the past. But do you feel like you get attacked a lot more? Oh? Absolutely, man, because when I do, it's just like again, it's supposed to be some kind

of indictment of my genders involved in sports. Do you think the media will ever respect opinions from strong black women. That's a good question. Um. Kind of hard too when your president doesn't seem too right now. Um, I would say that's gonna always be a slippery slope for most black women because when we express an opinion, especially a strong point of view, in general, we're like angry or allowed or fit fit in a certain stereotype. So I just think in certain spaces, yes, but in most spaces

probably not. I want to go to the NBA anymore fun anymore? Or does that team win the next five years, seven years, eight years? No, you need a village. And look at this riff that's going on between Kevin duran and Draymond Green. I don't understand that. I don't, but yet I sort of do. And it's not one of those things. I think it's gonna blow over easily because

about how to stop. Well, clearly that the real tension is in the fact that you know, Kevin Durant is coming up on some free on free agency, and clearly Draymond Green feels some kind of way about the fact that he has not eliminated some of the speculation and hasn't shut it down, and it is allowed it to be a storyline and let's just talk money. Draymond Green is gonna be up soon and he could get a

max deal. They can't keep everybody you have claim. Somebody gonna have to Somebody is gonna is gonna be left without to check look at him. So nobody coming here. By the way, whichever one of them leave, they're going to LA to play with Bron, whether Kevin. So, let me ask you this, what would be the reaction if Kevin Durand went to play with Lebron ject? I don't

think people would care no more. I think I think people over there, I think after Lebron's decision and keV going to Golden State, I don't think people are people still on Katie's here about going to Golden State and taking the quote unquote easy way. See, I'm gonna just keep into sports. Lets you're in the relationship with Lebron, like, because now that you're narrating his film, his documentary, some people might feel like, well, now she's not gonna say

nothing that because they were together. No. No, I mean I think he understands the function of what my job is. And I've always had this attitude, regardless of whether or not I had the sort of working relationship that I

had with Lebron or not. Is that I'm never gonna say something on television or write something about an athlete I can't say to their face, right, And I think it's just a good guideline for journalists to have because regardless even if a guy is not necessarily good, I have enough professional respect for the amount of work that they have put in to get to that point, because it's hard to be a professional, and so I understand that. And even when I'm talking to coaches, I never come

into this situation like I know more than them. I don't. I never can because they practice at this craft much longer. Now, that doesn't mean that I'm not going to ask Pee Carroll while he handed Baltom Mars Shawn Lynch, because you know, we could all see he should have ended at the

Baltom Marshawn Lynch. But that being said, there's just a mutual respect there as for Lebron, even though I'm narrating this documentary, I mean, Lebron and I like we ain't going to them all together, you know, like we know

and are aware of who each other is. And we've had conversations before in the past, and I just thank him for honestly allowing me to have this opportunity to narrate this documentary, because, as you notice, you don't hear a lot of women narrating sports documentaries, and so not only to pick a woman, but to pick a black woman, I think that says a lot about who he is and what's important to him. All Right, we got more with Jamil Hill when we come back. Don't move. It's

to breakfast club. Good morning, good morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the god. We are the Breakfast Club. We have Jamal Hill in the building. Charlomagne. Do you think Draymon should have gotten suspended for arguing with Kevin Durant? That's his teamMy well, the fact that he did get suspended lets you know the seriousness of it. Man. That's why I said this thing is not gonna blow over.

I think there's some real animosity there. And even hearing how Kevin Durant responded when asked if he and Draymond had talked, the fact that they hadn't. Any NBA player would tell you through a course of a season, it's a grind. And even if You've won a lot together, You've spent a lot of time together. You know, it's like familiarity breeds content, that's what they often say, or contempt rather and so um, I think there are some

issues that they had there. And Draymond, you know, he has a very forceful personality and he's always at guys and he had just made a mistake. Kevin Durant was and then it was like, so why you out here letting a speculation right a free agency? It's like, whoa dude, what's the real issue here? And so that leads me to believe that this is not just one of those arguments that take place that takes place during the course

of the season. We might be looking at how their team winds up ending this dynasty down LA Kevin or Draymond in LA. Also with the dynasty, right, I don't understand why people get upset when Golden State wins every year. We all grew up in the nineties, right with the bold winning six championship. This doesn't feel like a fight with It's not interesting. Not interesting. You really challenged the bulls during that. It's like, Mike, we knew that was

a foregone conclusion. He was what was it a so called all star team or did he put those players and make those players? Why does it matter? It does? It does? Mike never been to a game seven in the finals. We knew what Mike was going to do. An NBA final doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. We love everybody scoring thirty and nobody, well the Knicks, I ain't gonna get it. How do you feel about Nike doing a deal with Colin Kaepernick? I love it, um, but

I want people to understanding this. They didn't do it out of charity. They didn't do it because they have a social conscience. They did it to make money. Look at how that merchant. Some people might have thought that it wouldn't make money. No, they knew. Let me, it's Nike,

like they look into market research. And one of the things that's always bothered me whenever there's discussions about Colin Kaepernick is we spend so much time talking about people who dislike his dance and the detractors not realizing like

he has a huge fan base. Like for all the idiots out there burning knows mall Walker elevens or whatever, there are twice as many people who would buy anything with Colin Kaepernick's name or likeness on the T shirt said, he asked for Nike, They're already guard like you can't even to get those things. I think another company was trying to step up, and even I do, I do it was it was I completely believe that because he

can still generate buzz. I mean the amount of media attention what they say was almost two hundred million dollars that he generated for Nike in two days. So wherever he goes like he's somebody who's you know, so polarizing that he's gonna draw from both sides. He's gonna have his fans that are gonna ride for him and the people that don't like him are still gonna pay attention to his every move. So he's sort of in the

perfect space in that regard. But it was, you know, a bold decision by Nike and ultimate troll move for his first commercial running that first weekend other NFL season. Yeah, that's brilliant, checkmate. I'm glad he did to deal. I like, people are aking like Nike is the new black power, Like nah, no, man, they need to relax on that. I also don't like along those same lines, people thinking that you have to be broke if you're an activist.

You know, I've had conversations with both Tommy Smith and John Carlos about what life was like for them after they raised the FIST. They couldn't afford to feed their families, and they couldn't get jobs, and they were ostracized in this country, and that put them under financial hardship. Part of the reason why Colin Kaepernick is able to keep his activism in this fight going is because he has financial leverage, because he made the money in San Francisco.

Because you know, he could probably have any speaking engagement he wants and commands any dollar figure because Nike is continuing to give him a contract. That's part of what gets this and keeps him in the news and keeps this conversation, this very important conversation going. So he so, just because you stand for something doesn't mean that your

checking account has to be on zero. Because some people are trying to say that he's trying to profit off being involved in social justice issue issues, when I think he's just doing the smart thing. And not to mention his jersey sales with the NFL, he donated all of that to different social justice causes, so he's put his beliefs in his money. They've certainly aligned les talking about decisions right leaving teams, Let's talk about you for a second.

Are you feeling great and comfortable now not being in front of the camera and being more behind the scenes. Do you like that better? I do? I mean I want to better its relative and I want people to understand I haven't retired from television, okay, right now, I'm just sort of mulling my options and thinking about what makes the most sense. I've never This is a very foreign stage for me in my career. Like I came up under the umbrella of traditional media. So I'm used

to working for just one place. That's where the paycheck is coming from, representing just them, and then that's it. I'm now building my career more ala carte, all right, And so you know, as you mentioned, I have the production company writing for the Atlantic, mulling some podcast opportunities as well, and thinking about what direction I want my television career to go. Now, you could produce your own

TV show. I could, but you know, most of the stuff that I want to do with the production company does not involve me being front facing talent um because I still want to tell stories. That's the whole reason I became a journalist, and so the other part of it, I think for me too is one thing I think I learned over the last year, year and a half is that I don't know that I ever want to be sort of solely owned by one entity. You know,

my greatest asset is my versatility. And as you guys know, there's a lot of companies that you work for that won't let you do other things. And I don't know if I want to be under that kind of constraint again. So, um, how you walk in demanding what you want because you're in a situation where you don't need to have something else and you can say, look, I already have this, this and that going on. See there, y'all go man, y'all have relatives I've never heard of. Call of me

after doing this shit. I'm I feel like God moved you for a reason. Though, because you a reason, everything happens for you cannot be handcuffed. The ESPN. M. Mel Hill has too much to offer the world. Everything happens for a reason. I'm a big believer in that, and I definitely believe in the adage of when guy closes the door, he opens a window, right, And so that's why I'm able or was able to leave espn A. What a great deal of peace of mind because I knew I was in the exact place that I was

supposed to be. I appreciate you guys for having me. Well, thank you, I left having a millionaire woman in the room. You know, so we appreciate you because too got it. It's the mill Hill. Yes, it's the Breakfast Club. Thank you because it stopping through ej Envy Angela yee. Charlemagne the guy, we are the breakfast club. Now if he just joined us. We were talking about Jada Pinkett Smith. She did an interview with Sway and they were talking about Will's X. Let's see what they had to say.

You know, she's going on vacations with Will without me with Trey. You know what I mean, Because I feel as though Trey needs to feel that dynamic between his two parents. That's very important that he can feel that connection and feel you know, where they do meet, so that he can feel, um, you know that that parental connection while you're married with Will, they've been on vacation together yes, they have. They actually just came off for one.

So Charlottage, what do you think. Well, first of all, I want to drop on the clues bombs with Jada pinker Smith. I am a pinker Smith. When he knows Carter, I feel like I respect the fact that she's secure in hers enough and she trusts Will enough that he will go on this trip and do the right thing.

Because I really don't think I have a problem with two parents co parenting, even if both of those parents have moved on and they're married to somebody else, I don't have a problem with them co parenting and still doing things with the child right. And I think that

vacation is a different step though. I mean, it's really not if you not if you trust your partner and you really feel like nothing's going on between these two and you feel like they're just gonna go out and have fun with the child, I don't think there's anything wrong with that whatsoever. I really don't. I me personally, would I be for that. No, But I'm, you know, still dealing with a lot of my own insecurities, and you know, I'm my emotional intelligence is high, but but

my sometimes I can get a little sensitive. I'm saying I'm a camping I mean, I couldn't. I don't think I could do with that with you. I like, yeah, I know what I'm supposed to say. I'm supposed to be like, sure, go ahead going out, but y'all have a great time. Matter of fact, you know what, just hit me when you hit me, just bring me back

a souvenir. Nah be, That's that's not how I'm They've been together a long time, bro, Will and jad have been together a long time, and it's always been the rumors that they swing, right, So you know, you wouldn't give a damn if he went out with his ex baby Mama. If that was your relationship and they swing there, that's cool. But I don't think I'm not secure, bro,

I'm just not like. That's why I say I respect Jada's security, love right, and the fact that she trust Will that much and I got to see the baby Mama depends how I'm saying baby Mama might not be a popping you, right, because that could that could be a lot to do with it too, And that's part of it, because think about it, if she if she not attractive, it t she ain't know she ain't been working out, ain't tripping. I don't know what will baby Mama look like? You know what I'm saying, so that

that that fact is in it too. I thought that's just my superficial ask. Right now, now, think about let's say she let's say, let's say Will Smith baby mama. Let me see somebody Charlomagne like Nicole Murphy. Nicole's all right, she cool. That she's just cool. Now, would you let would still be cool. I'm more of a Kelly Roland type of but but but you know, Kelly's married and none I'm married. That that conversation just to get it, you know, that's why I mean, I still consider Kelly

Rolling the good of chocolate goddess. But right for I see what you're saying. Forget it. I see what you're saying in my scenario. By the way, if my baby mama right looked like Kelly Roland, she would not be my ex baby mama. She would be my wife. Let's be clear about that. Okay, all right, I'm not even playing this game with you. Brother. Hello, who's this? Hello? This is say hey Stacy, good morning, good morning. Would you let your man go on vacation with his ex.

I definitely would. I think Jada is right that they need to have that dynamic between trade by themselves. I definitely agree with that. I kind of agreed you. I mean, you know, the sensitive side of me, the insecure side says hell no, hell, But the mature adult side that's been going to therapy and can deal with my insecurities says yes. I don't have a problem with that. I'm in the middle. Bron, I don't know. Thank you, Mama, Hello, who's this? Hey mama? Now? Would you let your ex

go on vacation with uh his baby? Mama? No, I wouldn't. I would have to be in that same hotel day resort, I'd have to be close. And why you trust them? Well, I do trust them, but still, I mean, you're insecure, like one of us, shine of y'all, and neither one of y'all would let yall spouse go. So don't act like right, we just asked you. I'm just saying so, No,

I wouldn't feel comfortable with that. But I feel like in their case, that's the backs of wife, and they seem to be working on their relationship for a long time, so we don't know what they got going on fingers though I've always been the rum I don't know. I don't think I know right now. Okay, thank you, But like like y'all said, the rumor is always better than the truth, especially when it's more attaining. Y'all have a good morning. An eight hundred and five A five one

oh five one. Now, would you let your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your wife, your husband go on vacation without you with their X because they have a baby together, for the sake of the baby. Would you call us now? Is the Breakfast Club? Go Morning Putting? Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now if you just joined us, we're talking J to Pinkett Smith. She did an interview with Sway and she was talking about Will Smith's ex and them going on

vacation without her. Let's listen. You know she's gone on vacations with Will without me with Trey. You know what I mean? Because I feel as though Trey needs to feel that dynamic between his two parents. That's very important that he can feel that connection and feel you know, where they do meet, so that he can feel um you that that parental connection while you're married with Will. They've been on vacation together, Yes they have. They actually just came off for one. Let me be honest, man,

I've been thinking about this. I've been thinking about this, and I had to remove myself out of the situation and think if I was Jaden Will and how long we've been together, and if I had an ex baby Mama, I don't think I would have a problem with this, bro. And the reason I would not have a problem with this because you do have to trust your significant other. You have to be secure, and you have to have the utmost confidence that your significant other would do the

right thing. But the number one factor for me would be how to Mama. Look, you know the ex baby Mama is banging, then I don't know if I'd put my man in that position. See, and I was thinking the same thing, like, I trust my wife. Go, But now what happened if her exes Michael b. Jordan or her exes what's the name Shama More or or one of them the brothers that all Chisel done, Yes, no doubt it was. Guys got a sex when them guys you think is sex with them guys? That are sex. Um, Yeah,

I don't yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Michael B. Jordans, I would wife's ex. You know why I would be so intertill about that situation? Why why you left for me? Okay, I'm saying, like, why are you left that for me? You know what I'm saying. I can't be that nice of a guy. I don't make you laugh that much, right, you know what I'm saying, Why why? Why did you leave him for me? That's what would make me in

secure about that whole situation. I would never left Maybe I would never be secure in our relationship because I would be wondering why you left him for me? Michael B. Jordan chilling there on the beat, shirt off your wife coming out with take calls, get upset? Hello, who's this? Hey? Would you let your man go on vacation with his ex? No? Why not? I chose my man, But I don't choked her might be Okay. Will's son is twenty six years old.

I mean, what are they gonna do on vacation this year that they haven't done in the past twenty five years? They probably never went on vacation. That's the thing. And the fact that he is so old. You don't need to go. You don't need know the vacation gonna vacation

by yourself. Illo. Who's this? Yeah? My name Chloe. I'm calling him because I feel like on suffering stuff, some parents do need to sit down on their kids get up age, especially if they going to college or they got life plans that's going on and it ain't need to sit down and figure out what's going on with their kids. A lot of black parents don't communicate well when he comes to passing. So I wouldn't have an issue with my child's father. Met him, have great report,

he got kids by other women. For me and him to sit down, have a joint, we can smoke, talk about our kids, figure out, you know, school plans, stuff that they evolved in. You know, it's bigger than just being sexual. Sometimes when you got kids, you got so let me ask you question, would you let your man go on vacation with his ex with their child without you? Right now? I really wish he would be able to go on the triple his ex because he doesn't really

get to see his daughter like that. Maybe they could sit there down and a constant and see how happy their daughter is to have them together. That's real. Things be better if you can sit down and see your kids smile and know like my parents is cool because I didn't have that growing up, so I said, when I had kids, me and my kids find I ain't been together for five sixty years now, But when he

called my phone, I pick up. When he emailed me about his kid or some hallwork or some packing, I'm emailing back when his father daughter dance, I'm communicating because he is just as important as I am to my daughter, and we need to look beyond all this all or all they might be having sex. He not even attracted to me no more. You're right, all right, Well, thank you, mama,

So you know, detroying to be able? Then what else I'm in Charlotte and love you dear, Hey, y'all, Well what some all of the story, man, and all of the story is. I guess we have to stop being so insecure. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. I respect the level of security that Jada Pinkett Smith is shown by a line Will Smith to go on a date with a date, not a date of vacation with his ex. But I still I see what his next baby mama look like I gotta see how much Will Powell Will

Smith guy right, right? But Will Will seems like a highly enlightened individual, right like like if anybody can go out and have a good time with his ex wife, it's Will Smith. But but you know what, man, no more I think about it. As I get older, I get mature, I don't have those crazy er just like that because in a way, in a way, it's like when you go out of town by yourself, You're right. When I go out of town for the weekend by myself and my wife not around, it's plenty of opportunity

to do some bs. I'm just not with it right now. And Will Smith, you're not read it no more. Ever, I'm not with it no more ever. And Will Smith about ten fifteen years no holds? Will Smith? Old? He up there? He about ten years older than me. I wouldn't say ten six seven years old. You no way gotta be damn fifty. Yeah, he's fine, forty six forty seven. We'll gotta be damned at fifty at least. So all I'm all I'm saying is if how old he so

he's ten years old? Ten years old of me? So all I'm saying with Will Smith is if he's tired at forty nine, if I'm tired at thirty nine, I know Will time at forty nine. All right, exactly, That's all I'm saying. The Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same. Don't see me. The Adventure with Luke's commander as he teams up with Albus Dumbledore to stop the dark wizard Grundebald's plans divide the Wizarding World Fantastic Beasts The Crimes of Grundebald now playing ratey PG. Thirteen.

Don't be at a date time you get Dunky, you are acting. I'm gonna fatten all that around your eye. They want this man two Donden blowers. Man, they're waiting for Charlomagne, the top in gloves. Let's go. He had to make a judgment as who was going to be on the donkey of the day. They chose you because the Breakfast Club. Bitch you, Who's donkey of the day to day? All right, listen, man, Charlomagne and got here. I'm on vacation. I don't give a damn what y'all

think about that, because I deserve it. Now. The Breakfast I was in eighty plus markets in a one hundred and fifty country. So we have a lot of new listeners who probably don't even know who Charlomagne the God is. So use my time off to catch up on some of my past work. Okay, okay, if you knew here, I do a segment every day called Donkey to Day donkey as in jackass, and that's when I give someone the credit they deserve for being stupid. So if you've

never heard of it, this is new to you. But if you are a regular listener, and this is an oldiep but goody because it's the best of the Donkey of the day. Donkey of to Day goes to a young woman from Arizona named Jacqueline Ideas. She's thirty one years old and was arrested on suspicion of stalking and arrassing a man she met online. Let me tell you something, man, we have all dealt with someone in our lives who

just wasn't into us the way we were into them. Okay, it happens, But I was always taught to, you know, never make someone a priority if you only remain that option. Well, Jacqueline didn't get that memo. At all. Okay. In fact, Jacqueline is a harsh reminded to tell us that there is levels to thirst. Okay, as humans, we all have a basic instinct when it comes to thirst, so right, and natural craving for fluids. But that's not the level

of the third I'm talking about. I'm talking continuous dehydration. I'm talking a deficit of total body water. I'm talking about the kind of dehydration that happens when free water lass exceeds free water intake. What are the causes of this kind of dehydration. Well, usually it's due to exercise, disease, high environmental temperatures, but most commonly caused by a new love interest. Okay, a new bay or the prospect of a new bay can make up most hydrated hydrated amongst

us thirsty all right. In Jacqueline is just another example of that. The Jacqueline met a man on a dating website. She said, they went on a few dates and Jacqueline immediately felt like she had met her soul mate. Well, here's the thing about that whole soul mate thing. Both parties have to feel that way. Okay, if you feel like I'm your soul mate and I feel like you just some chick I'm smashing for the summer. The fastest way to make me moon walk out of this situation

is to say to me, you're my soul mate. Do you realize you can scare a man away with that kind of talk too early? Go on a couple of dates with a woman, and you know, and then have that woman tell you you want to get married all right, Tell that man you want to have his baby, right, tell him you feel like y'all a soul mate, and then watch that man quickly fade away like an avenger

after Thanos gets all the Infinity stunt. Okay, well, that's clearly what happened in this situation, but Jacqueline refused to fade to dust without a fight. Let's go to Aisy family dot com for the report. Please. A woman accused of stalking and threatening a valley man she met online after they went on only one date. Feliche, she wolf

His phone was sixty five thousand text message. Jacqueline Addis claims she went on three dates with a Paradise Valley man she met through an online dating service for millionaire matchmaking. Court records say Addas sent the victim sixty five thousand text messages, including threats to kill him where his body parts and bathe in his blood. Addis does not deny the volume of text messages she did, however, regret the

nature of some of those messages. Addis said she never tended to hurt or scare the victim, and she doesn't blame him for her incarceration. Jacqueline Addis is being held in jail without bond. Sixty five thousand. That's crazy. Sixty five time for that thousand? How do you even say? I don't even think I've sent that many text messages in my life. My man, I didn't block her, my man exactly, my man who was receiving those texts? At what point do you decide you may need to block

this number? Sixty five thousand texts? Bro, crazy, I'm blocking your number if you talk spicy to me after three to four texts? All right, sixty five thousand, ladies, Please don't ever come across this part. All right? Remember Law thirty six and to forty eight Laws of power to say things you cannot have ignoring ignoring them as the

best revenge I had get fly on his ass. All right, Just make sure you don't block him on social media so you can see you shining, act like you're having a ball without him, and I guarantee he will hit you up. But whatever you do, don't sound like this. Okay, this is Jacqueline Addis live from jail. What's here? What she had to say. I felt like I meant my soul.

Everything was just the way it was, and I thought we would just do what everybody else did and we would just like get married and everything would be fine. But that's not what happens. You're not angry, Oh my god, No, I love him so much. I just want to love him so much. That's it. And if he doesn't like it, then I'll go home and I'll love my exployment. What am I says to do the point of love is

to keep giving it. That's the math equation. It's love equals three point three, which is infinity times equals, and he's squared, which is light. Light is forever l If love was a number, it would be three, so it's infinity times light, which is also infinity. So it's just forward, forever forward. And if you're selfish, you can't understand that because you want something in return he's not giving me anything in return, and I still love him any Right,

That's what love is. That's what the universe is supposed to be made of. When you're finding love. Not everything is perfect. This was a journey, and I want to apologize because nobody would ever be more sorry. See, I don't understand that's that deal with that kind of crazy, because that kind of crazy didn't just come out of nowhere, all right. It had to be a sign of that type of crazy when y'all first started kicking it with

each other. I got a homeboy right now who's dealing with some crazy and early, early, early on in the relationship, he found out that this young woman left her children in her crib by by himself so she could go check on her other dude at the club. Right, But isn't that a sign of crazy? How old were a kid? Yeah, toddlers,

So that's crazy, That's what I'm saying. So when you when they show you that in the beginning and then it escalates the things even worse, that's kind of your fault because you had to see this type of crazy kids this summer. Remember, there's a fine line between interests and stalking and let's just all stay on the right side of that. Okay, some donkey the days just sell themselves. Please give Jacqueline I just the biggest he hall. Did she say that she's just gonna go back to her ex?

Did she say that play that type of crazy again? She said she's gonna go back to that. I felt like I meant my soul me and everything was just the way it was, and I thought we would just do what everybody else did and we would just like get married and everything would be fine. But that's not what happens. So you're not angry with him? No, oh my god, No, I love him so much. I just want to love him so much. And if he doesn't like it, then I'll go home and I'll love my exployment.

Now from the ex boyfriend, I gotta beat up the new boyfriend. No, that boyfriend doesn't want her either, because I don't want to. No, No, don't come back to me. Joe basically saying, I'm trying to upgrade, but if the bank don't get me the loan, you know, I'm gonna gonna stay in the car. And I'm man, Okay, I canna buy a new car. What she's saying morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building.

I'm telling you sex sex symbol extraordinair. Okay, brush my god, Michael no good and will all the ladies and all the fellows like Michael B. Jordan's okay, ask him to take your shirt onverw oh Man man, real quick, awkward. Jesus's the movement going on now. And you guys can't just harass Michael people. That's what you got to say that you say, you say, how are you, sir? I'm doing good man. How is your life changed since Black Panther? It's insane. Uh, it's uh, you know, kind of known before.

I guess now it's just it's can't go anywhere, malls off limits. You know what I'm saying. Postmates, you know what I'm saying. My Postmates, Bill went through the roof. I'm in your house. It's just a it's incredible, especially

with the kids next generation. Man, just seeing them kind of how excited they've been, you know, after seeing the movie, and just kind of their reaction to me walking around has been It's been pretty incredible, incredible that buried me in the ocean with my ancestors that jumped from ships because they knew death was better than Bondage who wrote that line, I was right, man, Wow, Ryan, Ryan Cooler's uh,

he's incredible man. We just wanted to, you know, really get the essence of what kill Monger was trying to was trying to say, and you know, going and change, trying to you know, trying to trying to live. It wasn't really on his agenda. He was willing to die for what he believed in, and you know, going out what his answers did was was proving his point. I think I think he won. I think he got his point across in the end. You see you see the

child to actually go back to Oakland. You know what I'm saying, by the buildings really like you know, open up the borders of Wakanda. So that was you know, kill Monger's victory. I want to say, said to keep my diary during the time that you did Black Panther. Yeah, for most of my characters in general, um, not for television, but for film. I like to write a diary from

like the earliest memory of a character. Up until the first page of the script, which just kind of gives me like a backstory, a subtext to always know where my characters are at. So I always kind of like

keep those. So I got a like a you know, a crate full of, like you know, meet notebooks of like all my characters that I played thus far, and it's kind of memory that you think, oh no, maybe like maybe when it's alsoting done, or like you know, at the end of it, you know, some than that people kind of look back on and just kind of get a subtext to all the characters that that's actually a good idea maybe something like that. Never really thought about it like that. But let's break it down. Let's

go to the beginning. What made what made? What introduced you to this character? Why did you want to play Kim Ryan Coo? Yeah, I mean he just called me up and I was like, yo, might un to this movie, and I was like, exactly, nah. It was like it wasn't even um. Just as soon as he got the job pretty much, he hit me up a little bit after that and I was just like, yo, you want to play this? You know, kill Monger? You know what I'm saying. The villain I think would be a good

move from me. I was like, all right, cool, w would you winto comics when you went to Yeah, it was a big comical guy growing up. More Marvel. Okay, I mean I always like like Batman, you know what I'm saying. But Batman might have been the best one. The best one, you know what I'm saying. He was like for me, he was just the smartest. He was always like a like ahead of everybody else. He had ways to kill everybody just in case they started tripping.

I always thought that was like super dope. But Marvel was always like top not if. But they were jumping out the window online saying Batman could beat thing. Though that ain't happening. No never, no, no, no, no, He's not that smart. It wasn't gonna happen. It's I always been a big comic book guy growing up. But so playing kill Monger was like a no brainer for sure. And it's my first time playing the villain. How do you prepare it for the role, Like, did you have

to bulk up? It? Was it a lot of training? Did you watch a lot of videos of black men getting shot by police? Not really get angry and Wait, No, I mean that didn't. I mean, that's not too hard, you know what I'm saying. Like for me, it was more or less a sorry allergies, No, just not. It ain't that hard for me out there. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good, I'm good. Um No, It's one of those things were like, uh, it took me to a dark place. This character not even a dark place, but I just isolated,

you know what I mean. Like it was one of those things where you know, kill Monger, what he was fighting for wasn't too far from you know, what the culture was feeling at the moment. You know what I'm saying. It was an opportunity for me to kind of express I think with our generation it's feeling right now, you know through my art, you know what I'm saying. And that was that was like a real liberating you know

what I'm saying. Feeling for me. So you know, I spent a lot of time away from my family, really talking to my mom and my dad, you know what I'm saying, like my brothers and sisters and stuff like that. You know, I was you know, I worked out a lot. It was a sad place, man. I just kind of like stayed to myself, and so the physical aspect was

that was the easy part. Mentally, kind of going to that lonely place and willing to do whatever it takes to kind of free as people was the not that was a more challenging part, you know what I'm saying. But it was a lot of fun too. What about white women? Did you cut off white women doing that? More? Man? Why wasn't that go back there? I like women, period, all women. Everybody's on the table. Okay, everybody's table. Everybody's on the table, man, everybody. How much how much of

kill Monger philosophy do you agree with? Um? I mean, I feel like, first of all, it's a movie, you know what I'm saying. So there's a lot of things that Kilmunger has to do to service the character. You know what I'm saying, That service the story, you know what I'm saying. To the challenge to Challa, he's a tool, you know what I'm saying in that movie. But there's a lot of it that you know, I mean, you grew up in a press society, you know I'm saying,

systemic society. You know you're gonna create kill Monger like you. You can't create that. So I feel like this there's something that I agree with the something that I don't. He's an extreme version of what I think a lot of people feel today. And it was I was glad to kind of be able to play that character and like bring that to the screen. That form a little double little creed jabs he gave me just now you

should have fell out. Did you anticipate the movie would have the impact that it was going to have when you were filming it. I mean I thought we I thought we had something special, you know, if we all kind of did our jobs, you know what I'm saying from behind the camera in front of the camera. I never imagined that it was going to have the reach that it did. I did. I told Ryan last summer, I said, you know, black pans are gonna make of

a billion dollars. He was like, what I said, I'm telling you because you don't have all the Marvel fans and every black person in America who ain't even up on comments gonna go see it's gonna do with a billion now? And then we didn't really account for I think people going to see it three, four or five times. And I saw it three times. That's that's what coming to people buying out the theaters as being able to like take kids that wouldn't actially had the opportunity or

the means to go see the film. So it was, it was, it was a big deal, and it's kind of like it's kind of surreal, but the impact hasn't really hit me right now. It's still like because it's still living and still you know, so I think the real impact for me personally won't happen until, you know, years later after it desk really settles. But you can see the shift because Denzelzel was like, Yo, Michael can

have all my old holes. That's what he said. Next, it was that was a cool interview I did with him in the New York Times, man, honestly, just to be able to have a conversation with him, you know, and just spit those gems and being able to like, you know, hear him kind of like you know, kick that wisdom was was was a big deal, he said, you next, it's a lot of pressure, bro A little

bit not for me. It's like, I mean, I'm just gonna keep doing what I've been doing, you know what I'm saying, Like you know, creating a production company, you know, outline of Society was a big deal for me, Um because I realized, like the true powers behind the camera. You know what I'm saying. Everybody wants to, you know, be in front of the camera, be a star, be famous. You know what I'm saying. All that good stuff, and

that's cool and fun and all that good stuff. But you know, when you got to make the decisions when you get a chance to employ people, but key people of color. You know what I'm saying. Women, You know what I'm saying, Like in in those positions that are really going to make a difference, that's when you really start to see some We got more with Michael B. Jordan when we come back, keep it locked as the Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,

Charlemagne the guy we all the Breakfast Club. Michael B. Jordan's in the building. Ye. It is from your production company, a co production between UM you know, hbo UM and um Ram and Ronnie's who's our director with his production company as well. And it was my first you know, real project that I got a chance to produce. So that was nah very much. So you know, to go from like Wallace on the Wire, you know, being casted

in front of the camera. So, you know, fifteen years later, being able to like produce something, it was a it was a milestone. I wondered what y'all was going to do after Black Panther. So what you mean like this in general, like like what what's the next role you take when you do something that monumental? Yeah? So why farne um? I think because it's so relevant to what's

going on today. You know what I'm saying with like media control, you know, anti intellectualism, you know what I'm saying, the fact that you know, free thought, freethinking, all the distractions that we have due to technology. You know what I'm saying, propaganda, et cetera, et cetera. You know what Ray Bradberry did you know over sixty years ago, still very much so relevant today. And we wrote that movie

before the you know, the presidential elections. So it's like there's a lot of things that are in this film that that are very real today. Um, obviously there's some changes due to like no technology and the digital area that error that we live in. We incorporated a lot of like you know, kind of futuristic sci fi things, but it's in the near future like things that we were like, okay, cool, we can see if we go ten more years down the road, we could probably be

in that situation right now. So that's one of the reasons why I really wanted to step into that character and played that role. You knew it was gonna be a TV movie or he didn't care. Now I knew it was gonna be on HBO. Okay, okay, I mean for me, honestly, it was it was it was opportunity to aid to that story, be able to produce something, get a credit, you know I'm saying under my production company, to get some real stake with the credibility of HBO.

You know what I'm saying, to be able to like, you know, have my logo go up right after HBO is like okay cool. That instantly gives my company a lot of a lot of cashe and then um, yeah, in the story I believe that, you know, working with Michael Shannon also, you know what I'm saying, it's like a credible actor. So it was it was a win win for me all the right around. But what got what got you into acting? I know, you. You were

raised in New Yep. A lot of times, Nwik is probably one of those places where it's one of the shout out you could get somebody. I mean we often called city feel me. So what got you into acting? Um? I mean it was it was random. My mom has Lucas or whatever. She was going to a doctor's appointment when I was like eleven years old. I was sitting in the waiting room. She came out. The receptionist was like, Yo, do you want to You know, you should get your

son in the modeling. I started out modeling for like toys and Russ and models. I told you that eleven. She was a pedophile. Cut it out. She had she had two sons that was in the business, probably like you. My mom was probably talking to her, you know, some other appointments about you know, we were pour growing up, you know what I'm saying. Didn't like making extra bucks. It was easy to come to the city, go to like go see you know, quick booking whatever whatever. And

I guess over time I started booking. So I guess over the next year or so, my agent was just like, yo, do you want to like start going out for like, you know, commercials, and background and extra working all that stuff, and then it just slowly evolved into acting. Like I never really liked acting seriously until probably The Wire and being around like I Dress and David Simon and JD Williams and Andre Royal and all these like all the phenomenal veteran actors on that show. They're like, Yo, Mike,

you can actually do something with this. You can make a career out of this. And that's when I kind of started taking it seriously. So you've had a relationship with HBO for a while. Yeah, yeah, it's been it's been like sixteen years. A lot more respect now, I'm sure, without a doubt. I mean it's gross, you know. I mean I kind of like paid my dues as a kid and kind of grew into the man that I am today and looking back at I was, I guess

I was a child actor. But it wasn't like I got too much too fast where I was like emotionally not able to handle what was going on. So you ain't gonna see me on the you know, running the street going crazy, you know what I'm saying, No drug habits. I got a good family, like my family, my friends, everybody kind of keeps me grounded. And if you ever around me and my friends, you're like, damn, you might need some new friends because they hate you. They keep

it real with me. They touched you know what I'm saying. They just they keep me home. You still live with your parents. They live with me. But it's like position. But it's like, why wouldn't not You know what I'm saying. If you get the opportunity, you make the money, you know what I'm saying, making enough money to be able to take care of your family that took care of you your whole life, while wouldn't you move them out? You know what I'm saying, And I'm never home. You

feel like you got short shafted for black parents. And speaking of money, what I mean I was looking at the salaries. Did you didn't look too chunky? If you look at the sally what do they say you made like maybe two million? I don't know. I mean, I'm just man, that's probably wrong. How are you? How are you getting How you getting these numbers? Where you getting

these nims? From what I'm saying, that's what fool for you want to So I'm putting everything you read on the end of it ain't true, true, true, you know what I'm saying. But now, but one of those things were like you live with your mom, that's what masking many. Yeah, yeah, that's one of those things. We're like, you know, at the end of the day, like Marvel's Marvel, and you gotta be do what's best for the project at that

stage in the game. You know what I'm saying. We're you know, individually in our acting careers, we're all kind of like, you know, featuring our quote. We're doing we gotta do you climbing that letter. You have a Netflix movie too, deals with Netflix. Yeah, I gotta, I gotta a show that I um that I sold to Netflix, Raising Dion. It's about a single mom raising her eight year old with superpowers and sold to the Miles Perspective

um or Superhero Kid. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, single black mom, you know, raising a kid, and uh, you know producing that as well. So I'm actually I'm being in as well.

I'm starting in it for a couple of episodes. That was the trade off, you know, when you when you get to a certain point of you know, making production deals right now as an actor, you gotta kind of like negotiate a little bit, and you know, trade yourself off a little bit for a couple of episodes, get that producer credit to get that show on the air. So that was one of those things. But Netflix is an incredible home to work with, great collaborators. They believe

in the creatives. They give us a lot of control to go off and do our things. So I teamed up with macro Charles King over there. He's amazing and um yeah, man, we got with getting ready to start shooting at the summer. So let's talk about these women. Man, you know what's going on? Why? Well, why everybody want to know about what I'm doing on my life. You've got to be disciplined, Michael, because they on you all

right now, they on you now. Now. Recently, this girl from Temple got into your DMS and brought you a smoothe and you pulled up on it. No, she didn't, and you pulled up one look at I love like you bought your smoothie and you pulled up on it. Lot. If you read the Internet, I declined to smoothie. Okay, she didn't buy me no smooth Let's happen. I think this happened. So you want to go see it. Listen this no, no, this is what happened right. So this

got right here? Boy, So uh, we're shooting at tip the university and our base camp is behind the door rooms. Let's come out of hair and make a trailer. It was in the windows went crazy, blah blah blah. Yeah yeah. I went out, talked to a couple of them through the window, just like, you know, show them some love. Went off of the cook. I was like, cool, cook me something whatever, just being nice. They slid in my DMS.

Where can I see the food? I answered? A couple of them said cool, just come down and meet me at my at the base camp. I'll tell the security to chill out. Went out there, gave me a flake some other friends. I told her bringing friends. We took some pictures. You ate it. That was it. I took a couple of bikes. You're not worried about period, blake, Come on, come on, how they get you? That's roots voodoo? I mean, nah, I took good bikes whatever, man, what

I mean whatever? I know what I'm saying. I took a good bikes. It was cool and let's tell page come in man, I need to shoot from my come, I took a couple of bikes. It was cool though back the end of the day like that was some craziest thing a girl has done to get your attention as they eat them, popped about your crib, laid in your bed, and you no, you see that. See the blonde right there? She said, know what she's been talking

about in your ask for much? I have her own video says she don't even want to come in here now. Out of control. You have out of control energy that they have with Michael B. Jordan. Rumor has it that he's in a relationship. So I'm really look, I'm chilling, man, I keep I keep my i'mna keep on personal life. Okay, I'm keeping that. I'm chilling. We got more with Michael B. Jordan at tour when we come back. Keeping locked as the breakfast Club one morning, the breakfast Club. Everybody is

DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. We have Michael B. Jordan in the building. Now, what is the craziest thing a female fan has done for you? I mean, I don't know. It's one fan in Philly. I guess made a cut out of me and like, you know, actually took me to prim Taket shot out to problem exactly and that was a little extreme, you know what I'm saying. So I responded back to her. So she got she got my attention with that one. Yeah,

she got my attention with that one. So I mean, I'm not a rapper like these rappers be having, like you know what, I'm seeing these fans and stuff going crazy. I think musician fans and like active fans are different, you know. I think it's a different type of like, you know, obsession a little bit. So I don't really get too many crazy, crazy, crazy fans of a woman throwing her panties on the stage if you were a singer and in the acting world screenshot at her without

parties on. I don't know, man, I don't know. I listen to Tiffany Hatrish. Yeah, my family crazy. But she told me something. I don't even know if I should be repeating this, but oh man, so don't no listen. She's so she said she's not shaving her pupid hair until she has sex with you. Okay, now you know it's gonna be hot this summer. Do you do you do you want to have her down there all bush? Can you make that happen? I know you're gonna see her at night at the met Yallas, So you're gonna

put that on me? Yes? What you mean, ain't gonna do me? Let her walk around with a bush? I ain't gonna do it me. I never this first time I'm hearing about it. How long those this was yesterday? So that day? No, she know what you're talking about? Been growing? That'd be a good look for you. She'll do love African princess. Why don't you do stand upright? Man? You don't think about it? What's up? No? I know, I know? Why don't you have to stand up? You

got a black man? Oh you? Oh you got a relationship. Why y'all trying to bait me into answering this goddamn question. I'm chilling. I'm chilling. I'm chilling. What is this white woman's name? What are you talking about? Why do you talking about? You know? Why you cleave me alone? Or anything? Or anything or anything? Asking? I'm just asking, man, I'm chilling. Man, So no real interest, and Tiffany had this is what

you're telling. Tiffany's dope. So, oh that's a good You're saying you're not going to bait him in this interview is basically all I'm telling you is when you see her the night at the Macgalla, she got a full bush down there on you on me to get it removed. You're a friend, right, Yeah, why can't you can't You can't convince her to take care of that. She wanted you. She said she's not back, and then you got to

think about all the money she's gonna make in the future. Man, that's a good y'a can build your you don't think so leave me alone. You have to be very fitting in shape. You think you can do something that you actually had to gain, say sixty pounds out of shape. I can't wait you would do that? Oh man, I can't wait. Just like I said, I got to do it soon because like the older you get, the harder it is to get back in the shape. But I really can't wait to like play a role. I gotta

put on a lot of weight. I could just eat, not work out. It'll be awesome. Right now, we're in the middle of the shooting Create two, and it's like my body's like, whoof I am tired? I am tired, tired was there any part of you that didn't want to come back and do create two because Ryan wasn't doing it In the beginning, I was. I was a

little hesitant, honestly. Um, you know, it was something that we started, we created, you know, but he came on board and you know, he's producing it as well, so he still has his finger prints on and he's still involved. But in the beginning, you know, uh yeah, it was a little hesitation there. But Stephen Cables when we finally got him, we locked down to a director. He's from Cleveland, Um, you know, went to usc Um. You know, he did this film called The Land. You know, did a lot

of made a lot of noise and sundance. He's an incredible filmmaker and we're really lucky to have him because we're he's putting his fingerprints on it too, so we're good. We're in good shape. I don't like the premise though, you don't even know the premise stopped reading the Internet. Stop reading the Internet. And the Russian it's so predictable. Like first about the second one. The sequel is really tough,

okay too to anything. It's really hard to make, you know what I'm saying, and to really like bringing nostalgic back and tie in you know what I'm saying with Rocky and and and still give create his own legacy and like brancha off down and you know, give Creed his own his own lane. There's a there's a there's a natural tie, and there's not natural balance there between making a second one a little bit bigger than the first one. You know what I'm saying. We didn't have

a true bad guy. It wasn't a real antagonist in the first film. Um, it was really about the origin story of a donna. So this one, we're gonna try to, you know, make things a little bit more spicy during this one, because the first one, we want to flight together and I look over Envy and he's crying. For the record, your shirt was off when he was crying. I'm not sure. It was a little awkward. I don't even know what babe cry. It was a little tear

came down already. You know, you're like, you're naturally more emotional when you're playing in there, You're more you're you're more likely to cry. Washing what you're saying I read on the internet, Speaking of the internet, this is America. I saw you tweeting that you I mean, keep posting on Instagram how much you enjoyed that video. Yeah, man, it's incredible. I think it's like right on time. Honestly. Um, you know, I feel like Donald, you know, we're actually

kicking it last night. We were we were hanging out last night. He's in town for the met and stuff like that. We you know, singing his praise and stuff all night. Man, we had a good time. But, um, I feel like Donald is the distraction. You know what I'm saying, Child, child's gaming up, Child's game's distraction to what's really going on. You know what I'm saying in the world right now, just as much as we're distracted by everything else that's going on and not really pay

attention to the world around us. So I encourage people to watch the video, but don't look at it at child. Try not to. Yeah, could you see the pale horse in the background. Exactly what the cop call following up the kids on their cell phone according everything. You know what I'm saying, You see you see you know Donald? You know what I'm saying. Shoot my man, you know what I'm saying. Traymon Martin I'm saying, popping on the head or whatever, but then also seeing him Traymon Martin,

isn't it tym his father? No, it's not, it's not, it's not it's another artist. Yes, it's an artist, all right, Miss bokeaeople thought that it wasn't okay cool. I saw the resemblance and okay, all good. But anyway, but you see the way guncre know, I'm saying, way for the gun, you know what I'm saying, nightly the way, but the body is dragged away and some people exactly. So there's a lot of little things in there that I feel like it's super important. And he's a genius heroes, isn't

amazing to the director? Um, there's a lot of the laner you know what I'm saying, and all of his childish music videos. So yeah, man, it's a It was a good video. I loved it. I just wish that in that one scene where he shot the choir, I wish he was a white person actually shooting the choir instead of Perkins because I don't feel I feel like people. I don't like the optics of black people killing black people.

See what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, it might have been a little bit more like clear yea what he's trying to say? Yeah, Because I mean, if you're white and you're watching that, all you see is black black killing black people. Yeah, I see, you know what I mean, And it reinforces the negative stereotype you already have of us anyway. But other than that, I thought it was a genius video, iconic video. I think it goes down legendary. Michael Jordan gotta get about it. He got some TV

to do. It's very busy, but we really appreciate you for stopping. I always tell people from Hollywood, especially the black actors, they forget about their black basis, you know what I'm saying. So it's good to see y'all still coming back with the rush off to the white people. No, not coming. I never. I never lose touch man, never lose touch. Bro alright to me, I appreciate you guys. Absolutely. It's my Kail B. Jordan. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
