Hey damn, hey Angela. Yea is Monday. Yes, what a day to get the week started. We love them Monday. That's right. Um. I had a crazy weekend. Shout to all of HBCUs. You know, I go on an HBCU tour. So Friday I was at the University of Arkansas pine Bluff. I think it's cooled a pine buff which is an HPCU out there. And then Saturday, I was at FAMU in Tallahassee, Florida, and then I went over to Miami. Did some work in Miami, but I was all over the place. So shout to older HBCUs. I do an

HBCU tour. Each and every year while I try to hit old HBCUs that I possibly ken and I got Central University coming up, I got Hampton coming up, Howard coming up. I'm not sure what I was bunch with ah HBCUs. So shout told HBCU students out bart, I'm in Detroit, and shout out to Cash Doll. I actually moderated a discussion with her during her listening session that was on Friday. Her album was supposed to come out on Friday, but it's been pushed back to the eighteenth.

And I do want to say her album sounds amazing. Okay, it sounds really really great. What I love about Cash Doll She's really passionate. Like it was just a listening They were playing part of the album, but she was really standing up and performing everything. She wasn't even playing. She wasn't just chilling listening. She was performing. She was having a good time. Her family was there. It was a nice event in Novae out here. And then I did we run three one three. Shout out to everybody

from that. So they have this running club out here starting by Joe Robinson and Lands, and they do these runs. They do it on Tuesdays, normally three times a week, but once I said I was coming out here, we decided to collaborate. Since I do the Run with ye running thing back in Brooklyn, I collaborated with them out here and we did we run three one three along with Run with Yee. It was a crazy turn out. Shout out to everybody out here. I'm at JILB right now.

They had their whole street team come out and it was a big deal. It was nice to see all these people running. Some of them were first time runners and some of them are pretty experts. But it was a two mile run and we were running through the streets. Yeah, it's time to get my winter body ready. I gotta start working on my winter body. What's the winter body.

I mean, you gotta like fluff up. I didn't work out in the summer, so in the spring to winter now that's a good time to start getting ready for the summer. Yeah, yeah, I gotta. I gotta get back here. I've just been running so crazy. I've been doing so much with real estate and traveling and doing all this. It's just been a lot. But I gotta get back there. I haven't been working out like I used to. It

as a matter of fact, because I'm not at home. Normally, at home, I have juices all the time, and I have stuff like press juices in the fridge and all of that. I haven't had anything since I've been out here, and I'm feeling a little under the weather. So I could see the difference. We all can as a family. Everybody out there, we're all a family. Let's get back in the gym, let's start working right, and let's start start getting out body right at least in two Thanksgiving.

Get right for Thanksgiving. No nobody else with me. I think you should just be better in general. That's all all right. You better work out whenever you can, all right. Plus I have that lip service to our coming up. I'm gonna be on the road a lot. I was thinking, like, how am I gonna work out? So I guess that's no,

You're not gonna go with me? No, I am okay? Good? All right? Well, we got some people joining us this morning. We have author Ryan Holiday, he'll be joining us, and also Latham Thomas will be joining us. You're not who those people all? Ye? Well, Ryan Holliday is an author and he has a book.

Okay, all right, let's get the show cracking front page news. What we're talking about, Well, there is a second and what's so blower now coming forward and we'll give you some information

on that. Also, Botham John will tell you about the person who was one of the key witnesses to testify he's been killed. All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping lockedese to breakfast club. Good morning, Yeah, yeah, morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy we are to breakfast, Good morning. What's happening. Let's get in some front page news now. NFL of Philly Eagles beat the Jets of Green Bay beat Dallas thirty four twenty four.

Shut up, green Baby eat Jet the Dallas Cowboys thirty four twenty four. Shut up, you said that already. I'm sorry. New England beat Washington thirty three seven. Carolina b Jacksonville thirty four twenty seven, Arizona beat Cincinnati twenty six twenty three. He used to be the Lanta fifty three thirty two, New Orleans, VT. Tampa Bay thirty one twenty four. Oakland

be Chicago twenty four twenty one. Baltimore beat Pittsburgh twenty six twenty three, Buffalo be Tennessee fourteen seven, DENVEROT beat the Charger twenty thirteen. In Indiapolis beat Kansas City nineteen thirteen. You missed the score. I was traveling because I was in Atlanta. I went to the Tyler Perry Grand Opening. What was the New York Giants Vikings score? And tonight and Monday Night Football on take On clear about all the listeners who might not who might have missed the

scores yesterday because we was busy. What was the score the Giants Vikings game? Envy? I didn't even know Giants play lest Okay, I'm pretty sure it was twenty eight to ten Vikings. Yeah, I wasn't. I wanting to Giants two and three? Now, I mean, I mean, it don't mean anything. It's throwing it out there. Want to keep people informed. Wasn't paying attention to the Giants and the Cowboys almost have the same record. No, there's things almost

having the same I'll go with that. I'll go with that. No, what else you're talking about? We have a winning record, the Giants don't. All right, A second whistle blower has come forward after talking with intelligence officials, and they are saying this person also has firsthand knowledge of some of the allegations in the original complaint against Donald Trump and his dealings with the Ukraine. So there's all of that going on with this whole impeachment inquiry. So now they're

saying that both officials have come forward. The whistle blowers have full protection of the law intended to protect whistle blowers from being fired in retaliation. So we will give you more information as that comes out, has more information. It's getting ridiculous because I'm like, I don't even know why they need whistle blowers when they've already confessed to every goddamn thing, not to mention. Donald Trump stood on the White House lawn and not only said should Ukraine

investigate Joe Biden? He said China too? So what's the problem? What are we talking about it? Right? The White House Press secretary said that it doesn't matter how many people decided to call themselves with the blowers about the same telephone call, a call the president already made public. It doesn't change the fact that he's done nothing wrong. No boy,

and made the public don't mean his right. And in sad news, both of Jean's neighbor who was a key witness in Amber Geiger's trial, was shot to death and Dallas Joshua Brown he died at the hospital after getting shot Friday night. And you know what, people were calling him a snitch for taking the stand for taking the stand, yes, which and he didn't want and you know, he really didn't want to take this stand. They actually subpoenaed him and he was forced to take this stand. He didn't

want to do that. But he's been in hiding because he's had some issues with people in the past that were I guess coming after him for retaliation for something else they felt like he was involved in. And it turns out that the reason why he really didn't want to be out there publicly is he was trying to

keep a low profile. He had moved recently, and I guess that just put him on blast and now everybody was seeing his face everywhere, and other people are saying that perhaps this was a good way because you know, first one used heard that he was killed in Dallas. You feel like it's tied to this trial in some way, but they're still investigating and trying to find out who is the person that shot and killed him. If it's not tied to the trial, that's a hell of a coincidence. Yeah,

the timing of that is very very suspect. All right, Well, La, that's why they didn't want to take the stand, because he's trying to be in hiding and lay low from other people, that street stuff, and that he was low because they didn't want the street and the way he was. But they made him testify, which told the streets way

he was allegedly. Oh so yeah, So when you say that he was snitching and had nothing to do it the Amber getting kid y could have had something to do with the whole other kids, right, No, they were talking about him taking the stand in Amber Geiger. On social media. People were calling him a snitch for that. So which is trained to tell on the police. I don't get what I'm confused about. I don't know that's what I'm saying. I'm confused. I'm so glad I'm not

in the street. All right, Well that's front page news. Get it off. We was young, it was stitching was very was not as complicated it was back in there. Let's whole stuff is kind of everything is very complicated. You can snitch on yourself, but then when you're doing a court it, what's the difference they have been doing it on themselves. Oh? I always I always thought that snitching was if me and somebody else to committee were crying together, correct, and we get locked up and I

tell on that person to save my ass. That's snitching, correct, I didn't know that crime prevention, you know, seeing something and saying something was considered snitching. I'm confused and I don't even want to know. I'm so glad I'm not in the street. Get it off your chests eight five eight five, one oh five one. If you're upset, you need to vent.

Everybody is TJ Mvy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rooms. Let's talk to Joker's fill. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, Joker's opening

weekend is amazing. They said it did way better than they thought it would have made over ninety five million dollars domestically during the opening weekend, which is the biggest October debut ever. Wow, I heard the Joker's incredible. I haven't seen it yet. We both me and am Me went to go see it. Yeah, I'm not, like I said, I'm not a comic book fan, so I thought it was gonna be the continuation. I don't know why I

didn't really really read upon it. I thought it was gonna be a continuation to kind of like Dark ninety Joker's gonna be Bang bang, shoot them up. But it's the origin of the Joker. Once you get that, it's it's really good. I heard that. I want to go see it. I'm gonna see it this week. Yeah. So it was the security in movie theaters because Free the White Boys wilding out. Yeah, there were all kinds of people making threats and everything about going to the movies

to see this. So they've had to make sure that they have extra NYPD officers in New York City and in LA. They canceled some screenings after they said there was a quote credible threat. All right, Damian Lillard versus Shack, it's not stopping anytime soon. It looks like Damian Lillard has another dissung against Shack. I rest my case. Check it out. I think I been kind of sketching. You should have left me sensitive. I almost confused you with Lisa Leslie. How you swing gonna chuck in and try

to go be as bestie? Blooding my spitsful of me and you be looking zesty what you thought because you clop your little ship was sweeten. We boy the insecurities far away in the east. I don't want to hear it. Don't bargain with me for peace, because we're gonna shoot it out to you Bowers, just never speak. I mean that I'm not the one. I don't care about what you did, what you've done lately. Don't tell me about what was then when you was in your prime getting

faded off fifths of him. I was rocking Jason, my pops was at Sadie Ben dropping a clue box with Damian Little. What what if Lisa Leslie isn't sensitive though? What if Lisa Leslie's emotional IQ is hired in him and Shack? How do you think she feels about that? Bar Jesus Christ? Not too great? All right? Now? Shack has responded with the second round knockout freestyle character your last floe, put up your vocals. I could tell them your full retto. How you are battle rapper in your

real chop, you ain't winning a back. Don't see you rap because you beat the dark at you before. When you run, I see that stringer in your shorts. Send you shoot too much on your teammate. It's talking, make a boone call, get you trigger. You probably show because your thought it was hot. You ain't hard because of real life to trust like a fuck first stringer that I gave your son. I've been to rop you. I'm so mad if even guys or a lock can't help

you goodness string. I hate when that hangs out and you don't realize. Okay, yeah, let's be clear though. I love Shack, but these aren't even close. And I'm gonna tell you why I told you in this radio last week. If NBA players who might have better flows, better lyrics to shock when it comes to making songs, I have never heard of NBA player and make better songs than Shocks. So if Shrek wants to beat Dame, he has to

make a good dish record a song, not bars. Don't go bar to ball wrap the ball with Damian When it comes to bars, it's not even close. Damian Lillard is he's a rapper. Ye, So you're giving that round to Damian Lillard. What you're saying, I haven't heard everything I've heard. That's when when what you just heard these two I've heard two song I've heard two freestyles from Dame whatever you call it those and Dam's bodied him like it's not even closed. Damis wrapped, It's not even close.

Shot has to make a good song. You're know when Drake made back to back, hit him up with an actual record, like, Shot has to make a record. Don't go with him. Let's talk about fifty cent. He's producing a document series about Takashi six nine and according to the scripted series, it'll focus on Takashi, Snoop Dog, Scott Storch, Ray fair Alston, and fifty Tent himself. It's called a Moment in Time. It's gonna have six to eight hour

long episodes dedicated to each subject. Why so yeah, fifties framing Takashi, story about his very controversial and kind of brief rap career, and so you know if he's been trying to get these movie rights for Takashi, So we'll see what happens. The Rat a documentary in the works, The Rat, Tamer Rat Trap, I don't know, Snoops episodes.

They're gonna focus on his murdered track, which happened when Doggie Style was out, and Ray fare Alston is going to talk about him, his journey from being a street ball legend to the twenty y nine final kids tomorow. Yeah, I mean those are all great stories. I would love to see all those stories. I don't think the KAG six nine deserves a whole documentary. Bro. Now, when you compare them to old people, we just die. I mean not. It's still interesting though, and it's and it's new, it's relevant.

I'm sure the kids to watch. But the fact the way he came from, Yeah, it's like when they show all those CSI stories about cases that are happening right now. He was a rapper, he didn't pop it. Then he was I believe he was a cripp at one time, and then he went to blood and then everything behind him and then how it all fell down. It's interesting. IGTV, All right, shoot the documentary and put it out on IGTV. That's what thought. There was a snapchat one coming out.

I don't know about that, but I know to ship fifties verified too. He can put up the twenty thirty minutes on his id TV. In the meantime. According to new legal documents that the Blast has obtained, he's asking the judge to expedite his sentencing because he wants to start his prison sentence right away. He's co operated, keeping up even more than he had to. So now he wants to hurry up and get a sentence so he can hurry up and come home. So that is what

he's asking for. I get much of a sentence. I think it will get time serve well. He probably wants to know now he wants to come home. He was facing a minimum of forty seven years in federal prison, but they're saying that will be drastically reduced through the far happens. Imagine they still gave him forty seven years. I may that would be hilarious goodness, all right, I'm anti la yea, and that is your rumor repairing forty six you can give him. I think you get get

left than forty seven. Forty six years. They would never do that because nobody would ever snitch again. You're like, you know what I mean, right, there's a product. I'm sure they've if you go do that, but snitch, then you still get forty six years. Yeah, but if he was facing a hundred, so you'ppy you know, if you're happy with forty six, If he was facing a hundred, at least his hope. All right, you might come home.

We got front pay his news next year. What we're talking about, Yes, we are going to be talking about him. Since we're talking about people telling on people. Imagine being a mother and turning your own son in. What'll tell you what happened? All right, we'll get into that next Keep a lot just to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning, everybody's DJ mvy Angela yee Charlomagne. The guy we are the Breakfast Club is getting some front page news in NFL. Right.

The Philly Eagles beat the Jets thirty one six, Green Baby beat Dallas thirty four, twenty four Green Baby Dallas thirty four twenty four, Green Bay. I'm sorry, Minnesota beat. I need to know who Minnesota beat. Minnesota beat the Yankees was flying all weekend. I was in and out of Atlanta. Who did the Minnesota beat? They didn't the Yankees beat Minnesota. Let me look at hold on, Oh it's right here. The Minnesota Vikings beat the New York Giants twenty eight to ten. Wow, Okay, the New York

Giants are now two and three. Minnesota Vikers are three and two. All right, that means that the Minnesota Vikers have a winning record the Giants. Don't you know who else has the winning records? Still out of Dallas, Cowboy, I really don't know. They stand at three and two. I didn't watch in. New England beat Washington thirty three seven, Carolina b.

Chicago twenty four, twenty one, Baltimore by Pittsburgh twenty six, twenty three, Buffalo beat Tennessee fourteen seven, Devin beat the Charge of twenty thirteen, Indianapolis b. Kansas City nineteen thirteen, And tonight the forty nine is

take on the Browns. What else we got? Easy? Let's talk about a mother who turned in her seventeen year old son to police because she found some plans that he had in his journal. He wanted to carry out a school shooting on the anniversary of the Columbine High School massacre. Here's what she told CBS News Stepfast, I know I did all I can do and that I made the right choice. How does that make you feel

as a mom, like I've done something wrong? My son told them that she was in the creative writing and that it was just a story. I don't feel like she did anything wrong. And the reason I don't feel like she did anything wrong is because we don't know, you know, what type of issues her son is dealing with. And parents have to be responsible for our children at all times. And to me, that's being a responsible parents.

Very small could the boy could get help now instead of jail for the rest of his life, he can get help and hopefully get it change his way. Clearly that man, Clearly, that man needs some type of help, you know what I'm saying, and he can't get it now because his mom saw something and said something. All right now, Donald Trump had about three hundred young black supporters inside of the White House on Friday, and he definitely was playing to his audience. Here's what he said,

African Americans built this nation. You know, it's just starting to get real credit for that. Okay. I don't know if you know that we all built it, but you were such a massive part of it, bigger than you were given credit for it. Does that make sense? Well, he's right, but tell us something we don't know. And how about he said, I don't know if you know that. I mean maybe nobody in that room did, because you know,

let's get compensated for it. Now, like that was a great time for somebody in that room to bring up the conversation about reparations. Nobody's asked the actual president about his stamps on reparations yet, now, why would it again? Donald Trump is just having like a mini rally, I guess, trying to get fighting some bros over. Yeah. Yeah, I thought it was a conference or something. I thought it was a yeah, they it turned into like a mini rally for him. No, I thought I think it was

an actual conference that he was speaking at. That's how I asked, Well, yeah, it was at the White House on Friday, okay, And so just never heard him say that before. All right, Bernie Sanders is feeling better, and he released a video to make sure that you guys know he is. Okay, Hello everybody, We're in Las Vegas. I just got out of the hospital and I'm feeling so much better. I just want to thank all of you for the love and warm wishes that you sent

to me. See you soon. On the campaign trail. All right, So fortunately, you know he's been having some heart pride what it is supposed to say though, Yeah, I like Bernie sayings. But man, when people have been clowning you for being old and saying you're too old to be president and you have a heart attack and you gotta get stems put in your heart, that's not a good look. If you really love Bernie Sanders man, and you know you think his ideas are good for the country, I

think he would tell him to stand down. You wouldn't act like seriously, I would tell him to stand down. Being a president is very scressful. Being on that campaign trail is very supressful. I don't think it's worth your health and you know, your life. That's just my point of view, though, all right, And the rest in peace and condolences to Joshua Brown's family. He was both m

John's neighbor. He's the person that was the key witness in the trial against him, and people are wondering how did this manage to happen just right after Amber Geiger was sentence because his testimony was so key. So they are offering a reward to anybody who wants to help find out who murdered Joshua Brown. There is a one hundred thousand dollar reward. According to Sean King, he said, my friend and brother, Bill Perkins is providing a hundred thousand for the reward to help us find out who

murdered Joshua Brown. He was elite witness in the murder of both m John and was shot and killed right there in his apartment. COMPA will not stop until we find out who did this. Damn. All right, Well, Ladd is front page news now. Yeah, and Trump was speaking at the second Annual Black Leadership Summits. Okay, yeah, that's what that was. All right, Well, Ladd is your front page News now. When we come back, Author Ryan Holiday, when you joining us. Ryan Holiday is one of my

favorite authors. He's real big on stoic wisdom. When I read my daily Affirmations in the morning, I read out of his daily Stoic book. I love his book Ego as the Enemy, Obstacle to the Way. Trust me, I'm lying. And he's got a new book out call Stillness is the Key. Amazing read. And Ryan Holliday is coming up next. All right, we'll kick it with him next. And don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Come on, Breakfast Club, Your morning's will never be the same. H one's true crime docuseries

is back tonight at nine eighth Central. While the past generation of Nall Coast might be dead, the Cartel is still alive. This season, the Crew is crossing into new territory. Don't miss the new season of Cartel Crew tonight at nine eighth Central on VH one. The Breakfast Club. I want to everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building, my guy. He's the author of Stillness is the Key, his new book, Ryan Holliday, what's up,

my brother? Not much? Thanks for having me. How are you, man? I'm really good. It's so hard to be still in this day and age. Yeah, what is still in this man? And why is it the key? It's it's always been hard, right, there's this guy, Blazed Pascal. Five hundred years ago. He said all of humanity's problems stem from our inability to sit quietly in a room alone. That's before Facebook, that's

before Instagram, even before text messaging. Yeah, they did this study recently people would rather shock themselves than sit alone in a room with their thoughts for fifteen minutes. They'd rather feel physical pain than be quiet and not moving. You know, it's interesting, Like the only time I feel like I'm disconnected is if I go jogging in the park, right, But then I also can't do it without listening to music. I think music's all right. I think music's all right.

But what is interesting is that's probably one of the best parts of your day because you you have good ideas. When I come up with all my ideas totally, and so what I was thinking about in the book and when I've been thinking about my life, if those are the moments where I do my best work, Why am I not building my life around those moments? Why am

I just letting it happen accidentally? And so I want to be like really intentional about building that in there, not just because it's like spiritual, but because like that will make me better at life. Are humans really wide to enjoy it a moment? Like it seems like, you know, worry about the past and the future is just inevitable. Yeah, I think we're the opposite of wire to enjoy the moment. Like if you think about it like that, inability to ever have enough to always want to do the next

thing that serves us really well as a species. That's why people go on, you know, explore new continents and why they you know, a million dollars isn't enough. They got to make a billion dollars. So it's good for the humanity, but it's probably not fun to be elon musk. Yeah, you know what I mean, it's a grind because there's never enough. What about Donald Trump? You think that's fun? I mean he's got to be having the least amount

of fun that any human being on the planet. I can feel that way about you in a way, though, how come because you always putting out books? So what I think about is like, I love the process of creating and the published finished thing that's like that comes out the other side. That's that's the byproduct. But I'm not thinking about as I'm writing, is like how can I publish this? How many copies? Is going to stuff?

You gotta love the craft of the thing and teaching, I guess, yeah yeah, and having yeah, having something to say? So when do you sit still? Sit still? Yeah, of course, still waiting to come. No, so I got a couple things that I think are pretty practical for people. So number one, I think you get up early. You guys obviously have to do this part of your job, but the benefit of that is, like you wake up before everyone else, so there's less stuff happening, you know. Drive

to work. My drive to work is the best of forty five to a hour, no radio, no calls, nothing. Yeah, I tell people it's like wake up before your kids. Don't. Don't let the kid decide that the morning starts with chaos. Have a little bit of time there. So I think getting up early is important. My new thing is I don't touch my phone for the first thirty minutes to one hour of the day, Like I go straight in to whatever. The main thing I have to do is

before I see what Donald Trump tweeted while I was sleeping. Right, See, my phone has my alarm on it, So the first thing I do is look at my phone, and then I see all the text messages I missed while I was asleep. So you're starting the day on your back foot. Do you do you sleep with your phone in your room? Yeah, because it's my alarm, So I mean, look, an alarm clock's like six bucks, like buy an alarm clock. It's just so convenient. Let other people said the tone for

your day. Now. You also talk about mby and jealousy in the book and half harmful. Yes you envy, you're harmful. Well, you know the Theodore Roosevelt quote is comparison is the thief of joy. If like you go, my job was to have a radio show. My job was to be a best selling author. You get that and you think this is awesome, and then you go, but this guy sold ten more copies than me. This isn't good anymore. It's the comparison that takes away the enjoyment of the

thing that we earned. What I try to think about is like I want my success to be defined by things that I control, and then everything else's extra. So like, so this book came out this week. I feel like I'm not perfect, and I don't think anyone is. I do care about the results, but I feel like I already took ninety percent of my winnings off the table before release day because like, I know, I put all the work in. I know I said what I wanted

to say. I know it's the best I was capable of and then so where it hits on the list, how many copies with the first check looks like I did. And so my definition is mostly what was I capable of, not what this commit. Like the New York Times, this is a committee that it's not objective reality. None of the Nobel Prize is not an objective objective none of this is right. And so I'm not going to hand

my satisfaction and my happiness over to these people. I'll give an example, My My, My My book, which I think is how we connected the obstacles away. Uh, that book sold like a million copies. They hit the best seller list for the first time five years after it

came out. That's not an indication of objective reality. And like, if you think about in history, think about all the super talented people that didn't get the awards of the recognition they deserved because they were black, or they were Jewish, or they were a woman. Like the idea that you're gonna let success be defined by people who have their own agenda is really not a good Sorry, it's not

it's not a it's not a good idea. You're you're taking, you're taking your happiness and you're handing the control of it to somebody else. Do you have kids, You have kids? Yeah, I got to give kids. I got a three year old and a four month old. See for me, and I don't know, Challowy feels the same. I look at my parents and I see them had to do jobs that they necessarily might not have loved, but they did

it because they had to support their family. So for myself, thank God, I'm doing a job that I love, but I want to keep it in my family. I want to make sure that my kids always have the opportunity to do what they enjoy and not necessarily focus on the money. Yeah. And I think that's the reason why we get stressed out in this hall for me to

sit still sometimes because I always think of them. Sure, but what I kind of took from my parents that I think helps me in my job because I get to do my dream too, is it's like they saw it as a job, so like I'm gonna I'm not gonna be like, oh I'm not feeling it today, or like you know, like I show up and treat this like a job even though I love it. It's like I'm not, Yeah, it is, it's work. And how the

ethic I bring to it is a reflection of my character. Now, what's your journey been like to stillness, because I'm sure coming up you had your own issues that you were grappling with to make you come to realize how stillness is the key. Yeah, I think one of the things I took is I've been thinking a lot about is like no amount of external success will make you feel good internally. So a lot of times ambitious people they're like, if I just do this, I just get this, like

Dad'll be proud of me. But it's like you can't earn that. If you don't have it already, you're never gonna get it, or you want to prove people wrong, or you want to shove it in their face, or you just think like if I get this, like all be worthwhile as a person. And that's where like the therapy comes in, That's where the mental health stuff comes in. That's where so I've had to do a lot of

work there. And the other thing I've been I've been thinking about is like you don't make good decisions when you're just doing doing doing, Like early in your career you got to say yes to everything, But there comes a time where it's got to shift absolutely, because now you've got more opportunities than you know what to do with. And if you don't do that, that's when you agree to that thing that takes your eye off the ball and then someone steals your spot. All right, we got

more with Ryan Holiday when we come back. Nope, move is to Breakfast Club, Go Morning Putting. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee Schaldomine, the guy we all the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with author Ryan Holiday. Chalomie, could you tell people what saatriri is? Yeah, Yeah, it's it's the It's the sat It's where you get in meditation, when you get that sort of flash of insight. It's

like when enlightenment hits. How do you get there? I think you get there with quiet, You get there with thinking, You get there with work. You know, people think like enlightenment is this thing you buy in a box, or you can take some psychedelic and you magically. No, like wisdom takes work. You gotta ask people questions, you gotta challenge yourself, like you're going to therapy for months and months and months and then one day it just clicks. That's what that moment. Is I like what you said

too about Satoria. You say, no one can get to Saratoia by focusing on what's obvious, or by sticking with the first thought that pops into your head. I feel like that's ninety percent of the content on social media. You just say the first thing that comes to the head instead of thinking about it, and they never think like I'm going to regret this. I think we're seeing

this in sports too. Somebody's pissed after a game, they rush to Twitter to say what they thought, what they think, or how they feel, and it's like, your feelings are passing. Now your relationship with this person is defined by this thing you said to millions of people. And you know, there's a still a quote it's better to trip with your feet than with your tongue. You cannot unsay things. You know. You can get back up after you fall,

but you can't unsay that now. I've always been really cautious about what I do say and what I put it out there. A lot of the trick that I do is before I react to something, I counted ten backwards in my head. If I know that I'm going to say something, I might regret later, or you know, you want to get it off your chest right away, because some people feel like restricting yourself from saying those things is not a good thing, like you have to

say it, stay what you feel, you're censoring yourself. But I feel like sometimes I might not feel that way yeah tomorrow. It depends what it is, because, like you said, I if I've actually thought about it, yeah, and it's not an obvious thought, like it's something that nobody else sure has bought to the table. Yet I'm bringing it to the table. But if you're angry at somebody and you react, I don't think that's always the best reaction. I've never once been glad I lost my temper. There

are times I'm glad I stood up for myself. But it wasn't when I was doing it out of anger. It's when I thought about it, you know. So what I think one of the tests I used, I go like, what if I didn't see this? So somebody sends me this email, and I go like, what if my phone just like ate it and I never saw it? Like and if I didn't respond, would it matter? You know? And so I go like I kind of use like deliberately, like just pretending I didn't get stuff. I like to

slow down thing deeply. Chapter you break down what mister Rogers taught kids to do. Have you guys seen mister Rodgers lately? The TV show saw a documentary documentary. If you remember the intro of the show, what's the first thing you see? It's a flashing yellow light, like slowing down man um and if and that's his energy, And like, I think about it now because like, yeah, he's mad thinking about it now. He was mad slow folding his jacket. Yeah,

but that compared to it's from Pittsburgh. But but you compare that to like most kids shows, it's like, wait, why am I teaching my kid to be like a hyped up spas. That's like the opposite of what I want. Like, so I love that slow energy. That always the energy in New York is whack yeah, super fast. Everybody going so fast. I have to slow myself down when I

leave New York. I remember when I first really started traveling and going places, and I'd be so impatient with everything, like even just getting my change back, I'm not even in a rush. And you're like, oh my god, what's taking them? So long, and I have to consciously be like, okay, Angela, everybody is not in a rush. I talk fast, I move fast. I do, and sometimes I have to force myself to just slow down. You know what I think?

I go like, where am I rushing too? This isn't going anywhere even when you're driving, and you have road rage. And I think that's important too, because people do make a lot of I stopped that five years ago. Yeah. I don't really have road rage anymore because I have to always tell myself, worst case scenario, I'll be a little late, killing each other down. That's why I don't

do road radio. They'll kill you for cutting woolf Well, and if you could ever catch yourself, like in the mirror, having some road rage, you're like, this is so lame. This looks pathetic. You know, Oh, I am not yelling at myself. I'm the only one who can hear somebody think, yeah, stupid. I love one twelve. That's my favorite chapter in the whole book, where a desire. Yeah, you know you talk about John F. Kennedy and you say a person enslave

to their urges is not free. Whether our president, Yeah, can you talk a lot about John F. Kennedy and how he would treat people and react in situations. Yeah, so, on the one hand, Kennedy is great right in the Cuban missile crisis, it's all about self controlled discipline. But also he cheated on his wife during the Thirteen Days, like instead of being home with his family the world is about to end, He's like, let me hook up with a college girl. That's not that's not power, that's slavery,

you know what I mean. Like that guy is not in control of himself. That's what addiction looks like. And and eventually, like we think we can keep those spears of our life separate, right, Like I think Tiger Woods is a great example of this, Like best golfer in the history of the game, maybe one of the best athletes of all time. And he thought, well, but over here, I can be in chaos and I can do bad things. But eventually they crash into each other and one destroyed

the other. For a decade, he lost a decade of being the best in the world because couldn't check his desires. And so you want to go, like, if I actually get this, you don't think about like how it's gonna feel having sex. You think about that period right after you have it, you're the guilty, you know, the lying that you're gonna have to do a significant other. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so you can flash forward, you go, Okay, I don't

I don't need this. This is my mind lying to me saying that this is gonna be amazing and it won't be. What I found an interesting about that chapter though, like Jeff Kate that that desire was passed down to him from his father from yeah, yeah, yeah, you gotta work, like yeah, he had a father who cheated on his wife.

He had a father who told him nurse grudges. He had a father who told him like, you can get away with whatever you want, and so we can pick up bad habits from our childhood, and that you got to do that work, because what happens is you get from your dad or whatever that like your only powerful, you're only a man if you do X, Y and Z, And that's not true, and so you got to be constantly checking those assumptions absolutely well still, this is the key is out right now, yes, and all that good

stuff right at Ryan Holliday, Also, I got you something. We're talking about Russian This is a this is a ring I wear, but I think you'd like it. Mento Mori. I got one for you too, Mento mori. Right, so we're talking about like where am I rushing towards? But we're rushing towards his death. Right, we all die. So let's slow it. Let's slow it down. I don't need to get through this interview to go on to the next one. I don't need to get my change, Like every moment is a moment. Yeah, one of the one

of the quotes that changed my life Seneca. He said, like death is not in the future. Every second that passes belongs to death. Right, Like, so as things are passing, as you're rushing through life because you think you're dying, like we're dying, we're dying. Stop looking forward to the weekend right now, look forward to look forward to enjoying this whatever is, even if it's stuck in traffic, even if it's bad weather. It's like, because this is it,

this literally might be it. It could be the last thing. Baby. All the time people be rushing like are you in the rusted die? Why are you speeding for? Exactly saying what are you walking for? After all? And like what's the point. Yeah, like, slow down, slow down, enjoy it, make the most of it, and be be present. Right when if you're worried about the past, Sorry, if you're dwelling on the past or you're worried about the future, what you're not doing is seizing and getting the most

out of whatever. This moment is work. This is the key is out right now? Well man, Ryan Holiday, it's the Breakfast Club morning. Everybody is DJ mv Angela, Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. Good morning, good morning, Happy Monday, everybody, that's right, Happy Monday, now, Cholo. When you were out in Atlanta for Tyler Perry's opening, right, I was man dropping a clues box for Tyler Perry. What happened this weekend is something you really can't describe.

It's something you had to experience. You know. First of all, it wasn't lost on media historical significance of what Tyler Perry has done. Man, a black man literally has his own studio that's bigger than all the other Hollywood studios and it's in black ass Atlanta. Okay, we have all these conversations about blacker than combined, right, Yes, biging than combined. Yeah,

we have all ex. Three hundred and thirty two eight because we have all of these conversations about black ownership and building our own Tyler has done that in a way that I didn't even think was possible. Like I've never thought of the possibility of a black man owning his own studio. It seems like the Ball for so long has always been like a production company. You know what I'm saying. You produce your shows, produce you to films.

But Tyler is forcing everybody to dream bigger, and he shows you that the possibilities are limitless as long as you dare, as long as you don't limit your dreams. That's that's all he kept saying over and over, like I just want you all to dream bigger, Dream bigger, dream bigger. So it was just an incredible weekend, man, Like, don't get caught up into who was there, Like pay

attention to the historical significance of what what this actually is. Yes, and I always have been supportive of Tyler Perry in

his movies. I know people have criticized him a lot, Oh I definitely, But just the fact, just the fact that he was able to get himself to the position that he's in from doing from being homeless to doing the plays to making them into movies, making sure that black people get work, make sure that that's an amazing story in and of itself, and having these human stories that,

no matter what ratio, why people can relate to. And he did it about being unapologetically black and unapologetically catering two black people. You know what I'm saying. He actually did everything in Hollywood they tried to tell you not to do. They want you to be mainstreaming, they want you to cater to white people, and you know, nah, he did. He did it by being unapologetic black and catering to his own people. And I could never understand why people used to go in on him like that's directors.

Why if if you're critiquing the art, like all art can be critiqued like that, they would go in on him like he was setting black people back, And I'm like, how is that? Well, I'll tell you what. One of those people that went in on him, man Tyler Perry, I mean, named the sound stage after him and Spike Lee.

Spike Lee got his own sound stage, and I was like, Wow, that's big Listen, I haven't got to that level of forgiveness in my life yet, you know what I'm saying, But some people are better off than me, and Tyler Perry is clearly wanted. And when it comes to the forgiveness aspect of things, absolutely, And I think when you're successful in doing really well, it's a lot easier to forgive you like, well, I'm happy, I'm blessed, no reason to have any correct Yeah, I don't think that's the case,

because I think I gotta be a little pettier. But hey, I think I think actually being successful makes you can you can get somebody, ask the kids even more. I don't need you burn that bridge that just burnt by. You know what I'm saying. You have to work with somebody, but I'm saying you cannot. Really, I think forgiveness is easier. And when things are going great, well, I just like the fact that he gavesly it sounds because Spike Lee

is very deserved. And you know, even though those brothers may have had a difference in the opinion back in the day on certain things, they all grown now they've evolved and drop on the clues. Martha Talipray and the brunch on Sunday, the Bishop TD Jakes gave a sermon, Lord have mercy, My God, Bishop td Jakes gave a sermon about catfish. And if you wasn't there, I'm not gonna sit here and tell you. Maybe he'll release it online one day, but boy, catfish keep you fresh. That's

what I'm gonna tell y'all. Okay, And sometimes you gotta let your storm get you to your destination. You don't even gotta stay the wheel, you know what I'm saying. Let God guide that ship and you Linda Adams performed at the brunch and the Clock Sisters and Smokey Novel, Lord have mercy. Are you feeling good? You feel you feel really great? I had. I had a great weekend. That was a great date date date weekend. Did you gotta be a woife? No? I didn't get to go

to the bt A wards man. I wanted to go, but you know, performing performing I thought you wouldn't do a Black Mandow cheat. We had some plans, but you know, time didn't permit because they only gave him a certain amount of time to do a certain records, so it wouldn't have made no sense. Plus I you know I was invited to the talent everything. Okay, So all right, now we got rumors on the way. Y yes, I

talk about Kanye West and Sunday service. He did his Sunday service in Salt Lake City and has some things to say in support of Donald Trump. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a locktics to Breakfast Club. Good morning, good morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Gyee Schela mean the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rooms to talk Kanye Lien. Just Ohla Gossum reports with Angela Angela. It's the rum report for

the Breakfast Club. Well, Kanye West did is Sunday service in Salt Lake City and he talked about the Republican Party and how they freed the slaves and how he supports Donald Trump. Here's what he had to say. Technically, Kanye is not wrong, but he's leaving out a lot of that story. It's very long time ago that Republican pan.

It's very important to note that the Republican Party's values were totally different back then, and after nineteen twelve of the party underwinning ideological shift to the right, and after the Civil rightsack and after the voting right Jack, that's when the core base shifted and those racists in the South became more Republican. Okay. So he goes on to talk about social media and says, do not read the

comments on the internet. Those people don't know you like that social media, it's designed to make you think slower. They went to slow you down and control you. I agree with that. He goes on to talk about criminal justice reform and how there's one in three African Americans in jail in this country, and then he did Jesus Walks and there was about seven to ten thousand people out there. That album, Jesus's King was supposed to come out last week or what happened, and then was supposed

to come out on Sunday. I'm not sure what's going on, but uh, I guess sometime soon it can shut. I think they said, oh, I think an album like that, it may not come when you call, but it should always be on time. So you know, all ry, Well, since you say that, let's talk about jar Rule. He was on Watch What Happens Live and he is saying that he just wants to move past all of this fifty cent drama. We've been having this ongoing feud now

for like I don't know, so it seems like fifteen years. Yeah, like that, and I think it's time that we've grown past it. You do, I am removing myself, oh boy, from the circus, okay, because because what I what I've realized, when you entertain clowns, you become a part of the circus. Yeah, well that's not gonna work. That was a little dig now. Of course, Andy Cohen asked him to say three nice things about fifty, and that didn't go well. Either, he's a bad father. He uh, ideally like a big square

like box headed. Oh I and one more thing? One then what else can I say? Now? Oh? He looks like, oh okay. I actually thought that this was gonna be something. Well, there goes. That was all right. Well, besides just talking about fifty, they also discussed other things like Ashanti was she's singing for j Loo and that whole reference track situation. So he cleared that up. Is it true that Ashanti song Jlo's vocals in the beginning of her career? No,

that's not true. Let me clear this story up. So I wrote I'm real for Jennifer Lopez, and I sung the original version of it as a reference. Okay, but I sound terrible of course on the reference. So Ashanti then sung the reference for Jennifer Lopez, and when they mixed down a record left some of the vocals underneath. It's amazing to me how people love to hear those old hip hop stories. It's interesting. I like hearing them too. I'm not gonna I don't know that. That was very interesting. Yeah,

that's why it is a story, you know. That's why watching Angie Martinez a show on we TV, the untoll stories, and how people love that to hear those stories they never heard before. All right, Now, Tiffany Hattis has said that she is going to set some boundaries moving forward.

She's been very open about her public life and talking about things, but she posted a video on YouTube the ten things you should always keep to yourself, and amongst those things is the biggest goals that you have good deeds, you've done, your personal life, your wealth, your life, philosophy, family problems, other people's secrets, fears, weaknesses, resentment about the past and your talents, and so she's been taking notes on some of those things, and she tweeted out after

watching this video. I'm going to be a different type of entertainer. I am done being an open book. Sorry, world, no more raw entertainment from me. And she said, but if you do me wrong, everyone will know. So just know that that will still happen. If you do her wrong, we can be public about that. And she also said that a couple of things recently could spark some feathers, but she said, there's some things that I might have said or did two weeks ago that might hit the fan,

but all truth. So I am not chipping. That's it. I am no longer helping scrape some of my boots get rich bombs tip this weekend. But you know, like you can't volunteer certain information, you put certain things out there, people gonna ask you about it. It's twenty nineteen. You the only personal people want to be a help a book and share themselves and sometimes it's just hey, not even worth the job, that's what that's Listen, Like I told my sister this weekend, it's twenty nineteen, you're the

only person talking about Chenney. Okay, how does she reply? You can't be mad when Chinnie replies, how does you reply when you said that. You know, that's for her to talk about. You know what I'm saying. All right, i'man angie la yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, missie. I think she might be in town. She wants to come up here. Actually listen, why is there a picture of Dramas? I don't want us to take that down? But where the picture Dramas?

And it's like right in my line of eyes, the douche picture he's got on, like the Hawaiian shirts, that well manicured beard and some shades on his hair slicked back. Why is that there? I believe somebody who listens as a fan. Oh the guy, Oh, the guy from jail, Yes, the guy from jail. Yeah yeah, the same guy I used to draw pictures of you neck exactly. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. Now he's so dramast and dramas posted because he likes it. Next time dram shirtless. You know what

I'm saying. He used to do. He used to draw pictures of NBA. I can't remember dud his name from jail. Can't believe he's still in the leaving off for nine years. And he used to draw pictures of envy neked. Now he's drawing pictures of dramas time as he got. I don't know, maybe life, but maybe the next picture he'll be up. That's my prison art. Okay, all right, well, who are giving your donkey to man? Uh? Four? After the hour? I need this judge from Florida, Yeah, Florida,

to come to the front of the congregation. His name is John Es Castronachus. We'd like to talk to listen name again. I don't know. I'm not trying to repeat it again. My tongue hurts. All right, it's the breakfast Club. Good morning. Make sure you're telling them to watch out for Florida. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx in all of 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 arrestiped if to definitely stay. He's rigged the door to his home and an attempt to electric kate his pregnant wife. Police arrested in Orlando man for talking a Flaminia to breakfast club bitchy Charlom Hay the guy yea on the white, y'all keep letting him get y'all yes, donkey. Today for Monday, October seventh, goes to Judge John Skrastras Castronachus, Castronachus, I think I pronounced that he's a judge in this city called West Palm Beach. West Palm Beaches, a city

in the state called Florida. You know what I'm outside. People come up to me and tell me to be easy on Florida. They say to me, Florida folks, not that crazy. But there's nothing you all can do to prove that to me. Because we have eyes, we have ears, we can read, we see and hear everything that comes out of the Sunshine State. And every day there is a story that proves the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all the Florida. There is no

debate here. And today we have you had another story that proves this point. Now they're the young twenty one year old man out there named DeAndre Somerville dropping a clues bum for DeAndre Somerville man. Okay, he got called to do something that we all hate to be called to do, and that's jury duty. When the last time you had jury du the envy. I keep getting the qualified for jury du past. What about you too because

of your past? Yeah, okay, I said, damn line, I don't know what they're speaking about when I speak about my past. I wish I didn't have any felonies. I really do. When I was young filling our job applications, I used to hate when I got to that part because I for sure I thought those feelings would keep me from getting high at certain places, and I'm sure it did. But I never focused on the nas because I was too busy getting yeses. And I was happy

about that. But having felonies is still not a good feeling. But the one time no felonies came in Andy was when I got called for jury duty back in the day. Okay, I've only been called once, thank god. But I was in the courtroom and they asked the question, does anyone in here have felonies or something to that effect, and I threw my hand in the air quickt into Kashi

sixty nine says he did it all right. Then the judge asked you to approach the bench, and he asked me what my felonies were, and I said, loudly and proudly assaulting battery, if attempt to kill, point to presenting the firearm and distribution of marijuana. I was dismissed. Okay, what were yours? Envy? Mine was reduced to petty lars evydd the judge yes, okay. DeAndre Soonville didn't have the felonies dead we have, and in fact he had a completely clean record, so he had no felonies to use

to get out of jury duties. He had another excuse. It's not really an excuse because these things happened. But DeAndre did indeed miss jewurry duty. Now, what happened to people when they missed jury duty? I have never thought about it, Okay, never heard of anyone missing it. All ever heard is people not wanting to go. Okay, But it's understandable that things happened. People get I think people

get an accidents. In the case of DeAndre, he overslept. Okay, some people can't leave their jobs and he would rather go to work. They rather skip jury duty and make sure they go to work and they keep their jobs. So I don't see the issue. Well. Judge John S Castrnakus from Florida clearly didn't like the fact that DeAndrea was slept in miss jury duty, So how did he respond?

Let's go to ABC news Good Morning America for the report police a man who overslapped when he was supposed to be serving jury duty paid for it with a jail sentence. DeAndre Somerville asked that judge to reconsider his sentence after spending ten days behind bars for missing that jay of jury duty, and DeAndre says jury duty was the first time he ever set foot in a courthouse. Twenty one year old DeAndre Somerville was sworn in as

a juror for a civil case in August. He was scheduled to appear the next morning, but says he missed his alarm and overslept. Rather than heading to the courthouse or alerting the bailiff, Somerville went to work, not knowing there would be major repercussions. The presiding judge, John castronachus Saide's absence delayed the trial by forty five minutes. The judge originally sentence Somerville to ten days behind bars, one year of probation, one hundred and fifty hours of community service,

and a two hundred and twenty three dollars fine. Come on the judge Castronachus is now reducing the probation to three months, and the judge called this a classic example of good people making bad mistakes. He's now considering expunging the contempt of court charge from Somerville's record. One of the conditions for that Summerville will now have to give speeches to potential jurors about the importance of jury duty.

All of that because the twenty one year old man with no criminal record overslept for jury duty ten days in jail, one hundred and fifty hole the community service originally a year of probation reduced three months, and you have to show up every week to give a ten minute discussion about the importance the jury duty. What is that discussion going to be like? You should show up the jury duty so they don't lock your black ass up? Okay now? Judge John s Crnachus was asked why such

a harsh sentence? You know? Would you like to hear what he said? When asked why did he give DeAndre such a hard sentence? Listene was only an a and represented a very word section of our community. Not correct me if I'm wrong, but Deandre's race shouldn't factor into this case because when being a juror, no bias is allowed. Right like gender, race, religion, sexuality, none of those things is supposed to factor in when you are a juror. Right,

that's a terrible like. You have to be objective. I thought and listen to the facts of the case to come to a decision. Correct me if I'm wrong. A lot of people are listen to the breakfast club are in the law. Y'all know. I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but I would think a juror's race shouldn't matter. The only time a juror is race matters is when the juror is black and the judge looks at black people with disgust. Okay, in a

very poor light. I'm not going to go so far as to say the judges are racist, but I think if we ask Judge John asked why he gave DeAndrea a hard sentence, he could have just responded with this, mister Sille was to stop. That's it. I threw the book at him because he was the only African American there. There's no other reason. Okay, well, the only other reason is that you know he's from Florida. Please let Chelsea Handler give Judge John as Castro Nakas the biggest he

haw he haw, he haw. That is way too much, Dan maynez Am I missing something here. Nope. Ten days in jail, a year of probation, one hundred and fifty years of community service. I think is that not a little too hard? It's completely biased and really hard. And even the judge saying because he was the only African American enerjury. I mean, I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong

about jury, dude. I thought jury. I thought jurors had to be like objective, like, yes, you're not supposed to have some type of bias at this point, even though it's not. Everybody has natural bias. You're not supposed to because what would him being black have to do with this situation? Now, let me ask you a question, Charlomagne. Yes, if you had a friend right that never reported the jury duty, right, what would you advise him to do? Many of my business? I agree with that? Do you

agree with that? All? Right? Well, who don't go to jury, dudy. I'm assuming Angeli. By the way, this conversation just went, you're snitching on her. I mean the way you said I said I had a friend herself. I didn't say it was you. You just said I didn't defend myself. I just agreed. You keep getting out of duty. Who you? I don't know anything about that. I'm definitely ready to

serve your community. Yes, absolutely, all right, good all right, y'all will miss me if I'm not a weary all right, up next Latham Thomas will be joining us lathanas we'll talk to Hunt and my wife used what we used Lathon for for our third daughter. She's a doula. Yes, all right, so we'll kick it when we come back. Don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the

building in Latham Thomas. Welcome. Hey, y'all. I mean you kind of have the same job. Yeah, and then you are not a dula relaxed. Okay, that's training that goes into that in a hospital though. Yeah, I know you know what I'm saying with medication and correct. But welcome, thank you, it's nice to see you all. Thank you for having me back. We missed um. Black Breastfeeding Week.

What's it called? Yeah, there's Black Freastfeeding Week was in August Breastfeeding Week, Yes, the twenty fifth to August thirty first.

What was that about. Well, it's really about affirming the specific experiences that African American women have in the challenges we have around breastfeeding in our history with breastfeeding, but also self determination and showing that this is a time that we can reclaim our bodies as sacred and really lean into these practices that are not only good for our health but our ancestral And we know that like our people were breastfeeding and were nursing this nation, and

so there's a lot of historical trauma bound in breastfeeding as well. So it's a way to address that, but also to address some of the systemic challenges we have around it as well, and some of the policy gaps. I sell your post too where you were talking about slavery and how you know our African American sisters who are impregnated and then for us to feed the master's baby while our own baby starved. Yeah, yeah, so I mean if you think about that type of trauma that

gets passed down, right, we know that intergenerational trauma is real. Right, We're starting to see this, and I love that you guys have taken this stance on really looking at trauma and our communities and embracing pathways to healing, including therapy, and we know there's meditation. We know we have so many tools as people of color, but a lot of

them we don't lean into. A lot of them have been seen as like, you know, not as good as other practices, right, because they're not necessarily evidence based, right, And so what we need to lean into our healing practices, I think, to reclaim this period for ourselves, and especially because you know, motherhood is such a powerful time and parenthood in general. Right, it's such a powerful time in

people's lives and it really changes your life. Right, But if it's bound in trauma, then we're passing that down, right. And the womb is a first environment, So whatever your baby's exposed to, whatever energy they're marinating, and for that like forty weeks is also going to you know, turn on certain gene expressions when they you know, when they arrive, right.

And you talk about how when white women are breastfeeding is seen as empowering and when black women do it, it's like anthropologies or it's like you know, it's seen as different, maybe like not as wholesome. I think now with the tools of like social media, right, like people get to express themselves and you get to see different lenses on an experience that was taken away from us.

And so I feel like, right now, so many women are sharing but also not just publicly but like in you know, on social media, but in public spaces right like being in the subway and breastfeeding or being uptown. I see women now they're like, oh, asking questions, and I'm like, wow, I'm so glad they're asking these questions because it wasn't passed down generationally. And we see this in like UM black and LATINX communities UM so often,

and so we are under resource. But we also are the people who were doing it the most, but need and our breastfeeding in the least now, so it's really time for us to pick that back up. At what age should UM Usually kids stop breastfeeding, So it really depends. Like the World Health Organization UM recommends that UM baby's breastfeeds at least till year old, but the world average is like five years old. Five years Yeah, so a lot of people are it's all everything in school. Yeah,

and her child's almost four. Yeah. I rest spent till my son was three. He was definitely able to do, like he was riding a bike almost he was going into preschool and I was like, um, can we like have a conversation about this. He was making dinner. Yeah, he would do a lot. But also there was not the so there was a social stigma, like from people.

But I didn't have it from like social media, right, And I think that would have been different, like if you're posting pictures and people are like, you know, shaming you. So I didn't have that. I just had it from my immediate peers or family members who were like, girl, you need to put that baby down. But my son's health is like impeccable. That's what they said. The longer you breastfeed, it has a lot more benefits. When it comes say, yes, they never get sick because there's immune

factor that's passed down. And for people who don't know, you know, the first eighteen months of life, babies get

passive immunity from their mothers. So all the things that all the antibodies that their mothers have built up in their lifetime are passed down to the baby while they're breastfeeding, So that means that also another beautiful thing about it is that when you're when the mother, when the baby gets exposed to any pathogens, the mother will take a sampling of that and actually passed antibodies back through the breast milk to the baby so every time, so the

baby doesn't get sick most of the time. And so that's so great for people, especially in communities where we don't have access to quality medical care, or we can't get to hospitals, or we can't we don't have insurance. This is like a way to safeguard our baby's health and minimize the amount of doctor visits and ear infections and things like that. Yeah, because I don't have kids, but when I saw that picture of Coco and people like going in, I would like, let me go look

this up and see about it. And that's when I learned that it is a lot of benefits to yes feeding in continuing that on past the two year mark. Yeah, I mean if you can, right and we know that, like we think about it, it sounds easy and it sounds great, but then you think about Okay, one fourth of all women go back to work ten days after giving birth in this country, which is like, I mean everything, like you're still it's a lot going on, right, So you're not even recovered in six weeks is a normal

recovery period. So you figure you go to ten days in, there's not time for bonding, there's not time to establish a milk supply. So it's really challenging for a lot of people. And so even though we say like, yes, you should, you should go, you know, for a year at least, it's like figuring out what are the systemic barriers of people being able to actually do that. Yeah, did you see the couple that was seven years old that gave birth somebody? Yeah, I think within India or

something another country. It was another country. I think I did see something about that. Um, I mean I think it was an egg that she had and play. Yeah, yeah, I remember exactly how it let me look it up. But I mean, I just think about chasing behind a two year old like and they many years now in the hospital. Yeah. No, I mean I feel like, you know, when if we're bringing kids into the world, it's great if you can look after them. Yourselves. It's a great

fear of community. But I don't know, I just think about myself when I think about having another baby, and I'm like, okay, I'm not even you know, forty yet, I'm on my way, but I'm like, I would be

so exhausted chasing behind a baby at that age. I can't even imagine if you Because there's there's a lot of women like see Tamman Hall at forty eight, which is amazing, Which is great, Yes, Kenya Moore, we see women that I yes, they're having babies later in life because you know, there's a stigma with that too, Right, just like we have a stigma for young women having babies, we have it for what we consider older or geriatric right this quote unquote and so um, I think it's

great that people are saying, hey, you know, I've established my life and where I want to be, and now I'm choosing to have a family because many of us, we don't get the opportunity to really plan. Right, It's like you just found out you were pregnant. It's like, oh, I guess we having a baby. Or some people make it work. We're making it work, or it's the ambivalence. You get pregnant, you're like, I don't know, or you might. You know a lot of people like with abortion and loss,

like it's very common. So it's like, you know, to be able to choose and intentionally and have your partner and your setup, that's like a maze. To be financially good. Yes, okay, this is you know, a great time, and it's fantastic to do it conscientiously right and and be able to prepare. I think that's always great. It's not always common, but if we can get there, that's great. All right. We have well with Latham Thomas. When we come back, don't move.

It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, Everybody's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Latham Thomas. White percentages for African American women dying after birth so high. So a couple of things. Number One, the CDC just received just released a report like two weeks ago saying that the rates have actually increased. So when I was here last the rates were that Black women were three to four times more likely to

die during childbirth. The duty to child work for latter causes. And now it's four to five times than white women, yes, and that's nationally, but New York City it's like twelve times higher. And so this is like there's a bunch

of things. The sort of larger lens that we take is looking at systemic racism and bias in these spaces, neglect the fact that like the medical system has been steeped in a culture, a patriarchy and supremacy and has a lot of outdated practices that have not been addressed. And so when somebody goes in to deliver their baby and they say they're in pain or they're experiencing something that maybe indicative of some sort of type of illness,

then they're dating dismissed instead of treated. Or if they have something like pre eclampsia, which is associated with high blood pressure right, which is pregnancy and duce hypertension, if they have that, but like they have swelling, they have all the signs, but then they're sent home. They can

have seizures, they can go into shock. They could also lose their babies, right, And so this happens more often than not that people don't catch a lot of the basic health risks because also they like a lot of women report that they are going to the hospital and are going to their doctors and getting care, but they're

not getting the type of concern for their needs. And also if you're in pain and you're perceived as not being in pain, right because black women are seen to be able to tolerate more pain, then it's like, why would I give you an epidural, Why would I give you, you know, anesthesia, Why would I give you an aalogesic if you don't really if I don't perceive that you need it, right, So it's like you're being dismissed in any ways. And now what's been so great in light

of all this reporting? Like New York Times did a big piece that was seminal, in ProPublica did a big piece, and then it starts to become part of the consciousness. You guys have brought it into the public sphere as well. And I think one of the big pieces is folks showing like their actual experiences, they'll go viral. That's the main reason I don't want to have any kids anymore because my second daughter, what was the thing you should like? I think my wife had that. Yeah, so there was

an emergency section. Yeah, we had to had to maybe at eight months. And then my third daughter, same thing. We's in the hospital and they just like, oh, we don't have any more anesthesia, Like how you don't have no door. I'm sorry, yeah, I don't have any more. I'm like, I don't have any webpadors. Yeah, she can push it out, like what, And I'm like you saying, we got resources, we got money, We're in a good hospital.

They just she's black. She can shoot it out, and I'm like, you know what, We're not having no more kids after this. Yeah, I see, But that should not be experienced right like she should have. And even if the outcome was great, right, which it was, it matters how she recalls the experience. It matters what she felt,

what she was meant to feel in that moment. She did not feel empowered when she asked for something and she's met with, oh, you can just handle it, right, And she was happy that she could push it out thanks to Lathan. Yeah, because she had a C section the second time, and they tell you that you can't have a you can only have another C section, you can have a valid delivery after that, but she did

because of Lathan. But in this country. We use the most, we have the most resources allocated to maternal health, but we're fifty fifth in all developed countries in terms of maternal deaths. So it's like we're spending the most money, just like military, we spend the most money in the war machine. But like look at you know, it's crazy. So it's it's really like something to be thinking about, like, really, how do we look at women and how do we

prioritize women and will not talk about this. I'm talking about an entire lens of a woman's experience, right, because we know reproductive life cycle includes men sees and bleeding, right when your daughters get their periods, when we get our periods at first you know, pregnancy, abortion and loss,

breastfeeding and birth obviously, and then metal pause. So we have to fight for every single aspect and not just center the movement around just abortion right now, because if it's not safe for you know, black women to give birth, and we're we're putting at the top of the feminist agenda just the fight for reproductive rights, we need to be focused on reproductive justice, like what does that look like as an entire continuum and making sure that everybody

is served, and that we're specifically focusing on the most marginalized people, which we know are women of color. First, what are some of the misconceptions about pregnancy? Because one, and this is crazy, exactly five kids. I used to think that my wife couldn't work out, like you know, you don't want to work out, you don't use ways, you don't want to run, you don't want to work on a trick mel because you just don't want to affect the baby. What are some of the misconceptions about pregnancy.

That's definitely one of them. Exercise is really helpful, right and because again, like you have relaxing, which causes the muscles and ligaments to relax, and so that makes you more susceptible to also injury sometimes. So exercise is really good to help strengthen, to help with strength and flexibility. No drinking. Some people say you could have a glass of wine, a glass of wine at once a week,

you could do that. When you could do that to go into labor, because it'll relax you, but not in the beginning because it's a very delicate, you know, it's so delicate, the whole cell division, the process, it's rapid and there's all kinds of things that can go wrong in that very beginning stage. We have an endocannabinoid system, and there's actually cannabinoids in breast milk, so we know that, like our bodies have like grown alongside these plants, like

and there's yeah CBD and breast milk. Yeah, it's in breast milk. What about getting a perm or dyeing your hair? Okay, so I you know a lot of people avoid that because there are chemicals in the dye and it obviously goes right into your bloodstream because like your scalp is like permeable, So it's better to try to avoid like anything intense like that. You know, toxins which are in a lot of products, especially in our communities, right, Like we have products that are marketed to us that are

not safe for us. And so when we think about like the lotions, the creams like vasoline which rhymes with gasoline, Like we're using stuff like this all the time because it's tried and true, it's been in our community forever. But when you turn over the bottle and you look to see the ingredients, a lot of them should not even be in our body. And the continuing conference. Yes, I'm so excited about this conference, you guys, is our first one. It's gonna be at the William Vale Hotel.

Have you been there in Brooklyn. It's amazing. It's gonna address fertility, pregnancy, new motherhood, everything in between. Is November third, and yeah, it's going to be a day of programming and people can come and learn and also meet other people who are going through what they've been through. So, you know, will definitely address like maternal mental health because we know that this is a critical, critical issue in our country right now and we're just starting to have

that conversation. I think that y'all have been really pivotal also in you know, making it more acceptable to even look at the fact that there's a mental health crisis in our country. And so one of the things that we want to do is create community in the conference. So there's mentors, there's conversation, but obviously there's panel discussion. But when you move outside of that, there will be groups that you're placed into so that you leave with

like connection. Right, So you give stolarships too, right, Yeah, we're gonna have some scholarships and we're gonna give a code to breakfast club listeners now that they can you know, come and be able to attend. Well, let's can we do that now? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, which should we call the code Breakfast club Breakfast club? Yeah, so breast So please see you short though breakfast Yeah.

This is the Ruble Report with Angela Breast Club. Well,

congratulations to the baby. He has his first ever number one album on the Billboard two hundred with Kirk drop On a Clues Bad for the Baby, Damnit Charlotte, one hundred forty five thousand equivalent album units. Yeah, Originally they said it would do between one thirty and one fifty. It ended up doing one forty five. St the Baby Slute, the Arnold Taylor Salute, my man, stunning four Vegas, that whole billion dollars Baby Entertainment, keep moving, all right, and

the rest in piece of Diane Carroll. She passed away at the age of eighty four. She was a pioneer for African Americans. She actually was the first black woman to star in a network show with Julia on NBC, So it's the first network series to have a black actress as the lead character. You know her also from Claudine, of course, she was in the Five Heartbeats Right Dynasty and also to spin up the Kobe's in a Different World. She was married for a time to Her last husband

was Victim Owe. Yeah all right. Styler Perry also honored her this weekend with a sound stage. I mean, that's something that he had playing way before her passing. I think I think she was actual supposed to be that this weekend. Wow, but yeah, he definitely on her this weekend with her with her own sound stage on his lot. She's survived by her daughter and two grandchildren. Okay, Now, Floyd Mayweather has filed a protection order to protect his

daughter from a stalker. According to Hollywood Unlock, they gave this exclusive. They said she's been getting threatening phone calls and being harassed by twenty nine year old Damon Smith the second. He also threatened her mother, Milicia and her business. So he's starting to kill and rape Ayana as well as her family if they don't hand her over to him. And that's a very scary thing when you start getting threats like that. In the vers he actually even bought

a flight and posted his light to Vegas and everything. Now, when it comes to the law, the law has to mind their business when certain things happen, right, because what if this guy does get close to this young lady in some way, shape or for him. You already have the threat, You already put three screen order out. Now we should be able to do whatever we want to, that's right. If he gets anywhere close. That's it. Floyd got about what seven bodyguards? You said, you're gonna rape

my daughters. Threat. The threat has been established. Therefore, if the threat comes in my vicinity, I kind of want to kind of want you to come. The threat can be destroyed, that's right. I kind of want you to come to Vegas. Come on, the threat can be eliminated. Yeah, it's a scary situation for Ayanna. So it is hopefully they get him in jail and get him out of there. Hopefully you get shot if he comes anywhere in there.

I Yanna, all right, now, let's talk about what's going on with the man, the sales and all this drama with this uh party that she wasn't able to get into. And she did an episode of Side Effects of Professionalism, Part one for her podcast Small Doses, And by the way, she also has a Small Doses book as well coming out, and she's been talking about this situation where she couldn't get into this party and not only could she not get in, but it was humiliating for her because she

was escorted out of the party. When she did manage to make it in, she was invited by Jesse Williams and apparently there's some people that she doesn't get along with, and she says that the person who actually didn't want her there is Issa Ray's publicist. So a year ago, Isa Ray's publicist, Vanessa Anderson of AMPR, and some other people,

they started doing a Black Emmy party. Of course I worked with Issa, So Vanessa is somebody who I have absolutely, like met before, like when I have my web series on Isa's channel, and I have interacted with her, you know, on a few occasions, but she has never been nice to me ever. You know. I told Esa, I was like, hey, you know your publicist, Like she's just like she's just not being nice, Like she's just nasty. And Esa was like, yeah,

I mean that's just between y'all, okay. And now she goes on to talk about more about her issues on getting into this party. Now, I had seen Vanessa come outside to the front and have a conversation with her, but I didn't think anything of it. I mean, it is Vanessa's party, why wouldn't she come and speak to the person at the door. But it was interesting that this was happening because it seemed like an echo of

the year before. So what ends up happening is Eliza's like, you know what to come in, So he welcomes me in, and as I'm coming in, the white girls like she can go in, and I was like, girl, stop and I just wave her off and I kept walking. Then she goes on to say that security came to escort her out. So I walk in and I go to

the bar, Kiki goes to the bathroom. By the time Kiki has come back from the bathroom, a security guard is talking to me and a security guard says to me, hello, miss um, we have been asked to escort you out. I'm like, well, who asked you to scort me out? So he gets on his phone and he says Vanessa. I said, well, then you need to find Vanessa because I need to speak to Vanessa and I need to find out from Vanessa why I'm being escorted out. And

apparently no one can find Vanessa. Who the dull sound effects? That's our podcastcast, that's our podcast now. She goes on to say that she was hurt that none of her castmates intervened and nobody's doing anything and sharonas who's on the show, he said, you can't be a disrespectful ass human being and expect people to want to hang out with you. It's quite simple. Sit it out well, she responded to what Saruona's had to say. Not only am

I not for everybody, everybody ain't for me. So anybody you see on Twitter whom is in this business and got something to say about me, trust and believe I got something to say about them. The difference is that I'm classy enough to keep it to myself and not trying in during got to do with them. I was confused how she was invited and then when she was invited,

they didn't let her in. She was Jesse Williams invited her, but it was Vanessa's party, Vanessa and um Orde right, So because the person throwing the party even though she was invited by Jesse, I mean he probably didn't know there was any issues. They dropping a clue bump from my guy, Rande. I don't know what's going on. This is all too much, okay, just sound like a whole bunch of just just mess. I don't know what's going on. I know a man that Seals is my partner though,

and I ride with Seals one hundred percent. I wonder called Rande I think Rande was actually coming to get her, but she was already in the party by the time he got there. So Rande went to go mind his business, and then all of that other stuff happened after the fact. Got you think that her cast made should have stood up for her and intervened or um rightist. I don't

even know what their relationship is. I think said, yeah, no, if you were outside of party and I was inside and not saying you're having a problem, I would walk over and make sure you was. But we actually like each other. They don't. They don't like each other. It's clear to meet up, clearly they don't. Didn't that do what they're doing on the cast me secure? Yea what I'm saying. So it's clear that they don't get along in some way shape or for him. He's publicists don't

like steal Seal doesn't seem to care for her. It's like I can't mix oil and water. I guess you know, all right, Well, I'm sure next time a man that comes up, she'll talk about it with us. I'm angela, yeah, and that is your rumor report and make sure you get her of a new self help us small doses Can you mix oil and water? You can, it's just not gonna mix. Well, OK, I just heard that that's always a cliche. That's just going to say, like I've never actually tried to mix oil and water. I have
