Speaker 13: Charla Man, We were having a conversation before you walked in. Yes, sir,
Speaker 13: we were talking about, you know, our annuals on to
Speaker 13: the doctor and this, that and the other. So I
Speaker 13: was telling you know, we were talking about colonoscopy, got one,
Speaker 13: and the ladies in the room was like, yeah, they
Speaker 13: put you out, And I'm like, it was one of
Speaker 13: the best sleeps ever.
Speaker 5: Right, it's the same thing they give Michael Jackson. They
Speaker 5: tell you that before they do it. That's exactly what
Speaker 5: they said.
Speaker 13: I didn't want to say their name is but Chut
Speaker 13: the tray Watt, but that said they put you to sleep.
Speaker 13: They never put me to sleep.
Speaker 8: Right, impossible, right, because I did not know what the subject.
Speaker 4: He never got a colonoscopy, He got a prostate exam.
Speaker 5: Got you got you got ja. Yeah, I don't think
Speaker 5: I've had a profittet exam. You have a prostetic exam.
Speaker 8: I had to coolon.
Speaker 19: You have black man, we're most acceptable to prostate cancer. So,
Speaker 19: I mean, I got minds checked first the first time.
Speaker 19: At forty four, you supposed a way to your fifty
Speaker 19: forty five to fifty.
Speaker 4: No, it's forty five to get a coolonoscopy. You gotta
Speaker 4: got colonoscopy.
Speaker 8: No, it was fifty or fifty.
Speaker 5: They just changed it the forty five.
Speaker 4: You gotta get a kolonoscopy.
Speaker 1: That's why they shocked the tube up your butt, all.
Speaker 4: Right, and they look around for any polyps.
Speaker 19: So for the uninformed, it's basically to make sure you
Speaker 19: don't have cancer's tumor that's outside because if.
Speaker 13: They catch it early, it can save you. You know,
Speaker 13: you don't have to go for another ten years. So
Speaker 13: they know that you're free of cancer for ten years.
Speaker 8: Say if you don't, what are the symptoms?
Speaker 5: He might not have a symptom, but I mean the
Speaker 5: people that I've known that have lost their lives to it,
Speaker 5: rest in peace. My man combat Jack. He by the
Speaker 5: time he went he stayed four. But he did say
Speaker 5: he thought that his stomach was getting bigger. But he
Speaker 5: said he thought it was because he was drinking and
Speaker 5: he wasn't eating.
Speaker 12: Just bloated.
Speaker 13: It could be blood and your stool could be a
Speaker 13: bunch of different things. Sorry to talk about it today,
Speaker 13: but we got to make sure you go to doc.
Speaker 19: Absolutely absolutely absolutely, But you get blood, you're stool from straightening.
Speaker 12: To ar right, correct.
Speaker 1: I've never got blood in my still.
Speaker 5: To be I haven't personally, I don't know, but I
Speaker 5: can't believe we having a conversation with Metho about health
Speaker 5: when he is absolutely positively probably.
Speaker 8: Personally in hip hop. Now I'm informed about getting a colonoscar.
Speaker 8: I have to I'm not going to look into it.
Speaker 8: I have to get it done absolutely all right.
Speaker 19: Well that's something I have to.
Speaker 5: Do once you get so heavy in the workout games.
Speaker 5: I've been watching you for years, but like, what made.
Speaker 7: You do it it?
Speaker 8: When it's been about ten to eleven years now, I
Speaker 8: don't know. It was more or less.
Speaker 19: It started with insomnia for me, and I had a membership,
Speaker 19: but I've never even really used it. I would go
Speaker 19: sporadically here and there on and off like a lot
Speaker 19: of people do. But something just clicked to me and said,
Speaker 19: you know what, let's go go see what's up with
Speaker 19: the gym. It was about four in the morning. I
Speaker 19: was having all listeners here and it was open, so
Speaker 19: I started going. I had already had like my own
Speaker 19: program that I was following that my train Nad gave
Speaker 19: me previously.
Speaker 8: So you know, one three days.
Speaker 19: Started turning into four days, and four days turned into
Speaker 19: a month, and months turned into you know, years, And
Speaker 19: my journey's been pretty good, man.
Speaker 8: I had some good people around me helping me along
Speaker 8: the way as well.
Speaker 1: Did you slow down smoking at all?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 5: I wondered that by by today, because you were always
Speaker 5: the o g Weed guy and you know, like you
Speaker 5: Snoop Bread.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I mean, I mean that's a that's a nice little
Speaker 8: lane to be in and stuff.
Speaker 19: But I always said I had so much more to
Speaker 19: offer and I would hate to be just identified as
Speaker 19: just the weak. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I mean I
Speaker 19: think I've done a pretty decent job of that.
Speaker 5: I don't understand absolutely that it's interesting because they got
Speaker 5: the BT's greatest.
Speaker 8: Rap crews of all right, Right.
Speaker 5: I'm not disrespecting death Row and everything that they represent.
Speaker 5: I just don't know how it came down to Woo
Speaker 5: and death Row.
Speaker 6: To me.
Speaker 4: For me, it's the greatest, But Defro is not a
Speaker 4: rap group to me. They're not around the crew.
Speaker 19: They're labeled, and I think that's what they judged a
Speaker 19: lot of it based on as well. I mean, you
Speaker 19: got to really think about it. Those are groups, you know,
Speaker 19: Death Row, but it was groups within groups, especially with
Speaker 19: a Wu Tang clan, especially with the way we came
Speaker 19: in the game as a group with the option to
Speaker 19: sign as solo artists. So yeah, it kind of makes sense.
Speaker 19: And I'm just humbled and honored in the same breath
Speaker 19: because you know, Death Row they were what three years
Speaker 19: before we even dropped, about three years before we even dropped,
Speaker 19: and we had heard nothing like that before from the
Speaker 19: West Coast. I mean, I was a big n WA fan,
Speaker 19: you know. But other than that, everything else kind of
Speaker 19: slipped through the cracks. Even mc Hamma, you know, for
Speaker 19: a minute, he even slipped through the crash because we
Speaker 19: didn't really gravitate to Hammer like that.
Speaker 8: He even knew it.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 19: It was more or less like you ain't hitting in
Speaker 19: him and you ain't hitting in New York Hammer, I'm
Speaker 19: gonna turn his mother out, And he turned his mother out.
Speaker 8: He did exactly that.
Speaker 19: But I mean to be up against those guys, it's
Speaker 19: honor because, like I said, they put it down like whoo.
Speaker 8: I had never heard.
Speaker 19: Anything like Snoop or corrupt Dad's rage, any of them. Really,
Speaker 19: you know that what was it stranded on death row
Speaker 19: was the record. That was the first thing that I
Speaker 19: heard from them, And I was like, oh no, this
Speaker 19: degrade from n WA.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 5: Now did you develop that relationship because you had that
Speaker 5: relationship with him because you was on mine made up
Speaker 5: with Pop?
Speaker 19: Yeah, that was weird because it was because I had
Speaker 19: a relationship with Snoop and dog Poun. I mean I
Speaker 19: had Snoop in my in my fore Runner uptown.
Speaker 12: Wow, you know what I mean.
Speaker 19: We went to the game, and I swear on anything
Speaker 19: I love each time I ever went there the drag Wood,
Speaker 19: I put my money through the slot and give me
Speaker 19: the weed and I bring Snoop. He opened the door.
Speaker 19: I'm that serious as snooking bows for this. Let us
Speaker 19: end that baby's running around it. I've never been in
Speaker 19: this gate before, Like, oh, so.
Speaker 20: This is what It's like, well year was this this
Speaker 20: doggy star? Yeah yeah, Donkey style snoop and another week Wow,
Speaker 20: and the snoop was in the hood in Harlem. Yeah, no,
Speaker 20: security dog Pound was with us too. Beef what's so called? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 20: well it wasn't really no, we know those are informed.
Speaker 12: No, it wasn't.
Speaker 8: But the funny wasn't we get back in the car corrupt?
Speaker 8: Look at this was like, yo, good, this god.
Speaker 21: Sticks his seeds. He ain't knowing about that choco. They
Speaker 21: ain't know about that chocolate? Is it probably was the
Speaker 21: whack weed down that I think about it.
Speaker 4: You know, we'll be back with more method mans, so
Speaker 4: don't move.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club on BT, the Breakfast Club Mourning.
Speaker 4: Everybody is DJ NV Charlamagne the guy.
Speaker 13: We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with
Speaker 13: Method Man. Was going to ask you, do you ever
Speaker 13: get to that?
Speaker 4: I call it the old phase, like everything is good
Speaker 4: and it it's.
Speaker 8: Like oh yeah yeah a lot of times.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like you would would have saved more
Speaker 5: money than most because you've never presented that lifestyle. Never
Speaker 5: was flashy, never the jewelry.
Speaker 4: No, he had a catalog that could always I.
Speaker 8: Could always get a show, right, you know what I mean.
Speaker 19: It's just the fact of one to get up and
Speaker 19: go do it, and motivation when you feel unmotivated, and
Speaker 19: depression things of that nature. Plus you're not feeling as
Speaker 19: worthy as you were as you felt back in the past,
Speaker 19: where it wears on you, takes a toll on you.
Speaker 19: Then you become recluse. You don't want to be bothered
Speaker 19: with anybody. But the bills still come. You still got
Speaker 19: to go out, so you do just enough to get by.
Speaker 19: Certain things catch up. I had a tax a tax
Speaker 19: thing going.
Speaker 12: On as well.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they're dope, pretty number.
Speaker 19: No, not not even not like some of these people.
Speaker 3: Know.
Speaker 19: Like I said, I always lived a modest lifestyle. Still
Speaker 19: to this day, I live a lot of modest lifestyle.
Speaker 19: So I mean, I can't it's hard for me to
Speaker 19: describe because I'm still in that space where it's why
Speaker 19: do I got to get my money?
Speaker 8: You ain't gotta get it, you know? But I know, yeah,
Speaker 8: and I don't know. Man, Yeah, that's that's good.
Speaker 5: When did you realize?
Speaker 8: When did you say to yourself, Yo, it's me, I'm
Speaker 8: I'm miserable. I knew that back then yeah, I knew it.
Speaker 8: I just didn't want to accept it.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 1: And you still make you miserable.
Speaker 4: You had it seemed like you had everything. You had success,
Speaker 4: you had, the money, you had, the life. It seems
Speaker 4: like you had everything.
Speaker 19: I didn't respect. I didn't respect anything. And with that
Speaker 19: had said, I didn't think anybody respected me. So I
Speaker 19: just wanted to go away and work on some things.
Speaker 19: And like I said, it worked out for me.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 19: I'm not suggesting everybody do what I did, or everybody
Speaker 19: can do what I did, because honestly, I can fall
Speaker 19: back on a group that's iconic at any point in time,
Speaker 19: so there's always going to be a bag there for me.
Speaker 19: But the point is it's satisfying enough for me.
Speaker 12: To want to go back.
Speaker 19: What could I do that advance myself?
Speaker 8: Nothing. I'm doing a pretty good job of it.
Speaker 6: Man.
Speaker 19: I'm happy and I think it's resonating and people see it,
Speaker 19: you know, calling me Zaddy at fifty two years old,
Speaker 19: what is that.
Speaker 1: That's a good thing, man, that's a good thing.
Speaker 5: She said, She said, said, Yo, yeah, they call me
Speaker 5: fine a firl.
Speaker 1: Air force.
Speaker 4: So what got you into the into the movie and acting?
Speaker 4: And when you do have to get into it.
Speaker 13: But do you feel a way when you have to
Speaker 13: audition because you are such a celebrity stall people know
Speaker 13: who you are.
Speaker 8: No, there's never an ego. That's one thing I never had.
Speaker 12: It was the egos.
Speaker 19: I don't like auditions. I don't know anybody that really doesn't.
Speaker 19: But you I appreciate them. It's this, I mean, I
Speaker 19: would suggest that anybody. That's because I get people in
Speaker 19: the music game all day. I ain't getting act I
Speaker 19: would tell them all the same thing. Do the work,
Speaker 19: take the classes, read the books, because when you step
Speaker 19: on that set, your next look got to be your
Speaker 19: best look or they will not call your ass back.
Speaker 19: And when those people break bread in Hollywood, they.
Speaker 8: Break bread, please believe it.
Speaker 19: Yes, sir, me man, Mike, Like I said, one day
Speaker 19: at a time, and I'm just gonna ride it to
Speaker 19: the wheels fall off.
Speaker 1: What's been your favorite role right now? To Davis?
Speaker 19: Roll with Davids because nobody's seen it coming, nobody expected that,
Speaker 19: you know. And sometimes sometimes I look at the dialogue
Speaker 19: or we get the scripts and I'll look in at
Speaker 19: the papers, go right to my point and I look
Speaker 19: and it's life a lot of dialogue here, a lot
Speaker 19: of jargon, but I credit the writers for, you know,
Speaker 19: giving us something that fits the palette enough that we
Speaker 19: can digest it and make sense of it every time.
Speaker 5: So my favorite, my favorite meetings when they do your
Speaker 5: high character and they'd be like, yeah, that was pretty yeah,
Speaker 5: yeah he got to his David.
Speaker 8: That was fairly new, right there.
Speaker 19: I like the one I never miss I liked that
Speaker 19: one because I never missed.
Speaker 8: Why the hell did they replace Redman with.
Speaker 5: Yes, he wouldn't get the jet Oh wow wow, oh yeah,
Speaker 5: at least that's what I heard.
Speaker 8: You know, Did I talk to Redman about it?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 12: We close close.
Speaker 19: We don't like like that don't even need to be said,
Speaker 19: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: But it happens.
Speaker 19: He's not the first or the last person that that'll
Speaker 19: probably happened to. He made a decision, and I stick
Speaker 19: by whatever his decision was. If he feels that was
Speaker 19: best for him, I agree with him.
Speaker 5: Got you you know what, I love Man, And I
Speaker 5: don't know how you feel about this. I feel like
Speaker 5: there's no group in hip hop documenting their story and

Speaker 4: Now, did you work at a mall?
Speaker 1: She lied, and I went in there, and I went
Speaker 1: in there.
Speaker 10: I did, going all right, whatever, Look, so I went

Speaker 10: to do like the clinicals or whatever, we had to
Speaker 10: go in and we had to do the perform like
Speaker 10: the embalming, and I got scared.
Speaker 12: So that was it.
Speaker 10: That was my last day. That was my first and
Speaker 10: last time in the morgue. So no, I never was
Speaker 10: employed by More. I did tell Charlomage I worked there
Speaker 10: for some time, but I was trying to see you.

Speaker 5: pocket is cool. It made a job you don't like.
Speaker 5: It's plenty of jobs you don't like, But there's no

Speaker 13: Joe's ladies and gentlemen welcome.
Speaker 1: Good morning, hair, hair, hair, How.
Speaker 8: Are you feeling?
Speaker 1: I'm good. I was looking for Jazz. You know she's
Speaker 1: she got shows in de trait this will. I thought
Speaker 1: she's gonna be here so I can key kid, that's
Speaker 1: my girl. Are you kidding me? Yes? And she is
Speaker 1: so funny. I gotta say that she's one of my
Speaker 1: favorite people on Instagram. I love her. She always make
Speaker 1: me laugh so funny.
Speaker 5: What kind of jewels do you give the young female
Speaker 5: stand ups like Jess?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 1: Well, Jess, she don't need nothing. She gets it like
Speaker 1: this is the one thing I love about Jess though,
Speaker 1: is that she's confident enough to be like very sexy
Speaker 1: and still do coming. See when I was coming up,
Speaker 1: it was just the rule, just you know, Okay, I'll
Speaker 1: put it like this. Women comedians have to go through
Speaker 1: a certain thing. Like if I dress sexy and walk
Speaker 1: on stage for five minutes, I'm not gonna be hurt
Speaker 1: because when I walk on stage, the first thing is
Speaker 1: you're gonna get the women going, does she thinks she's cute?
Speaker 1: And then they gonna look at the man and be
Speaker 1: like ooh does he think? Does he want to her?
Speaker 1: And then you got to meet So that's five minutes
Speaker 1: of going to like all that happens. So I used
Speaker 1: to just do the T shirt jeans, tenis you so
Speaker 1: you can pay attention to me. But the thing I
Speaker 1: like about her is that she don't give a like
Speaker 1: She's gonna go up there and she gonna do her
Speaker 1: fun and she's gonna do her And I like that.
Speaker 1: What I always give young women is to you don't
Speaker 1: have to prove that you're a woman, like Jess does
Speaker 1: go on stage and do it, but like you, she
Speaker 1: doesn't have to prove she's a woman. Like a lot
Speaker 1: of female comics write like period jokes or disc jokes.
Speaker 1: If you can make them funny, that's different. Just be yourself,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, yeah, that's what I would just like,
Speaker 1: always keep writing don't stay on the same thing. You
Speaker 1: should refresh your set a lot. You should always be
Speaker 1: writing new jokes and and anything that you think is funny.
Speaker 1: It's definitely something you should go on stage and try.
Speaker 5: What advice would you give her about having a permanent
Speaker 5: gig on top of the stand up, like you know,
Speaker 5: just say a daily show or a daily radio show,
Speaker 5: like you.
Speaker 1: Mean, like this show should be here for now that one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would say to keep doing what she's doing because see,
Speaker 1: to me, Jess is gonna bring you numbers. Jess is
Speaker 1: gonna bring you a whole different and no on y'all,
Speaker 1: but y'all all men, y'all, and y'all don't know about bitches.
Speaker 1: Trust me, I'll listen to you. You don't know nothing
Speaker 1: about nothing, not a thing right, And and to me,
Speaker 1: when Jess is on here, she really be like, you know,
Speaker 1: doing her thing. You know, I really like her responses.
Speaker 1: She's not scared of y'all. So I would tell her
Speaker 1: to continue because she one thing I like about her.
Speaker 1: I bet you she gets the numbers because she continuously
Speaker 1: put that context out. I bet you she gets the numbers.
Speaker 1: That's somebody y'all need on here. She's a coaching shifting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you really do. You really do need to like and
Speaker 1: bring some youth to this room. I'm not like again,
Speaker 1: I'm not insulting you.
Speaker 8: Yes you are, but I'm not insulting.
Speaker 4: You're not lying.
Speaker 1: But bring some of that because this is this is
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Y'all been here for a while and
Speaker 1: you should be here for some more time. But the
Speaker 1: only way to do that is to continue to roll
Speaker 1: with the change, you know what I'm saying. And y'all
Speaker 1: need bit here.
Speaker 4: That's the first time you've been up there.
Speaker 1: This first time, yeah, because I was like here and
Speaker 1: she went to, I come take this money because y'all
Speaker 1: sitting in here with thrownes off.
Speaker 8: You're not gonna have time. You're gonna be doing the
Speaker 8: Daily Show.
Speaker 1: Oh you think so? Thank you?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Yo.
Speaker 1: First of all, I have to say thank you so
Speaker 1: much for coming on there. That was one of the
Speaker 1: best segments I've ever done. I still get people ask
Speaker 1: me about it. I love that you came on there
Speaker 1: and was very vulnerable, and it's just wonderful. You made
Speaker 1: me a fan of you that day, very much real.
Speaker 5: I actually heard you talking about it afterwards on your
Speaker 5: podcast too, and I was like.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, it was really awesome. Me and Lenny was
Speaker 1: just like he was so great, like he's just really good.
Speaker 1: And a lot of people asked me about that. It
Speaker 1: was like yeah, and I was like, yeah, man, that
Speaker 1: what he said was true, Like you said some.
Speaker 13: Really good than beginning from Leslie Jones. If you don't
Speaker 13: know how did you get into comedy? What what made
Speaker 13: to say that this is what I want to do
Speaker 13: as a kid or.
Speaker 1: I never thought I was a comedian. I never thought
Speaker 1: I was a comedian until someone entered me into a contest.
Speaker 1: I just thought I was silly. It was getting invited
Speaker 1: to a lot of stuff and just didn't understand why.
Speaker 1: And people like to hang out with me. And one
Speaker 1: day my friend was like, yo, it's because you are stupid,
Speaker 1: like you're really funny. And then when she signed me up.
Speaker 1: She signed me up for a contest at college. It
Speaker 1: was the funniest person on campus. And it's then Colorado
Speaker 1: State and I was on scholarship in basketball there and
Speaker 1: she came and told me, she was like, yoh, I
Speaker 1: signed you up for this contest. And I got mad,
Speaker 1: but I wasn't really mad because I was like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: let's try it. As soon as I touched the mics,
Speaker 1: I can't I tell everybody they think I'm lying. But
Speaker 1: it was literally like I saw like It's like had
Speaker 1: been doing it forever. It's like I saw myself like
Speaker 1: there was nothing, there is no option of me doing
Speaker 1: anything else. It was just like a light that went
Speaker 1: on in a line that went straight.
Speaker 13: And how did you start preparing after that? So now
Speaker 13: you want to do comedy? Right, But it's like anything
Speaker 13: else people. You know, most people that go on stage,
Speaker 13: you think they could do comedy, and then they fail
Speaker 13: because they don't know sets, they don't know times, they
Speaker 13: don't know delivery.
Speaker 4: You start studying it and said this is what I
Speaker 4: want to do it, And who did you study?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 1: First of all, what I realized is that I was
Speaker 1: already studying like my dad had every comedy because it
Speaker 1: was DJ So I was already into Pigfoot and Millie
Speaker 1: Jackson and you know Mom's may. I already knew about
Speaker 1: all that stuff. I had already had the knowledge of it.
Speaker 1: As far as like knowing what I was supposed to
Speaker 1: do on stage, I still was in that mode of like, well,
Speaker 1: I want to be like Eddie Murphy. I want to
Speaker 1: be like what we go work. I want to I
Speaker 1: want to be like Richard Pryor. But what I didn't
Speaker 1: understand is that they are who they are. That's the
Speaker 1: reason they do the comedy that they're doing. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to find out who I am. I learned that
Speaker 1: from Jamie. So you know, when I saw Jamie fox
Speaker 1: ye so cause he was I think it was the
Speaker 1: second time or maybe third time I performed, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: but when he came on stage, it was like, holy shit,
Speaker 1: he performs just like what your probably they're like, this
Speaker 1: is crazy. So it made me go, Okay, what is
Speaker 1: what is this formula?
Speaker 7: What is this?
Speaker 1: And then when I talked to him, he was just like,
Speaker 1: you're young. You don't really have nothing to talk about.
Speaker 1: Go out and live, Go out and discover life, get fired,
Speaker 1: get hired, get your heart broke, break some hearts. Just
Speaker 1: go through life so you can start to have something
Speaker 1: to talk about. Because right now you're trying to do
Speaker 1: jokes and you're not mature enough to do the jokes
Speaker 1: that you're doing, and you're not funny enough to do
Speaker 1: the jokes that you're doing, and you don't have to
Speaker 1: talk about. So you know, that's what I did. I
Speaker 1: went out and lived. I went out and lived, and
Speaker 1: he was right because by the time I came back
Speaker 1: I had to talk about I tell you like this.
Speaker 1: I had been doing comedy for three years and I
Speaker 1: thought I was just because I was. I was killing
Speaker 1: that monk. And I went up to Jans and Brown.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, Jay, when I'm gonna start seeing
Speaker 1: the fruitsive labor, like when I'm gonna blow up? He
Speaker 1: was like ten years. I remember bus. I went home
Speaker 1: and cried because I was like ten because this is
Speaker 1: the thing. It wasn't that I said in my head. Kno, Kim,
Speaker 1: you know, because I was in that type of comic.
Speaker 1: I was a very much like when I started comedy,
Speaker 1: I prayed to God. I said, listen, I want to
Speaker 1: be a good comic. If I'm not gonna be a
Speaker 1: good comic, just let me be a promoter or something,
Speaker 1: because I don't want to do comedy wrong. So when
Speaker 1: he said the ten years, it was not me going, ah, nah,
Speaker 1: that's you saying and then nah, it was me taking
Speaker 1: it in from a veteran telling me like, damn, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna know myself until ten years because he literally
Speaker 1: asked me one day, he said, what do you do
Speaker 1: doing the daytime? And I was like, I do a
Speaker 1: lot of stuff. He was like, well, from your set,
Speaker 1: it sounds like only thing you do is and smoke
Speaker 1: weed and watch game shows. So he was like, that's
Speaker 1: all we get from it, and I was like, nah,
Speaker 1: that's the ten year thing, because see, first three years
Speaker 1: you learn how to be on stage is just think
Speaker 1: of yourself as a toddler. The first year you're walking around,
Speaker 1: you're doing jokes, you're doing jokes, you're doing all the
Speaker 1: dumb jokes. The second year you may have graduated a
Speaker 1: little bit, but you're still doing sex jokes. Sex jokes
Speaker 1: is whenever you're seeing people doing sex jokes, unless they're
Speaker 1: just veterans and they got sex jokes, it's an easy
Speaker 1: thing to go into. It's just it's like low hanging fruit.
Speaker 1: So those first three or four years you're really just
Speaker 1: deciding who you want to be as a comic or whatever.
Speaker 1: Five years is when you start getting your gigs. You
Speaker 1: gotta set. But after you get eighth year, ninth year,
Speaker 1: that's when you start getting the big gigs and ten
Speaker 1: years years. Ten years is when you get tired of
Speaker 1: your set. Ten years is when you go, Okay, I
Speaker 1: got their attention. Now what I want to say. That's
Speaker 1: when you start talking about yourself real that's when that's
Speaker 1: when that's when you bring them jokes out, because you're
Speaker 1: going to be good enough to do it. And by
Speaker 1: that time, you got at least twenty thousand sets under
Speaker 1: your belt, and you should be. And people got to
Speaker 1: know the ten year rule. There's no way to beat it.
Speaker 1: Of are you who's saying no, there'll be to not
Speaker 1: what you're talking about. I've been in the business since
Speaker 1: okay eighty seven, bitch, I know you.
Speaker 5: Know how you know what you're saying is the truth
Speaker 5: because even when you look at the new generation, I
Speaker 5: don't care if it's Jesse Larrus, DC, Young Fly, Andrew Schultz,
Speaker 5: they've all been doing stand up for damnitary ten years
Speaker 5: the better Andrew been doing it for sixteen exactly. Jess
Speaker 5: should be right at ten right right, and DC should
Speaker 5: be right at ten right now. So you're absolutely right, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's just like it's like people want to
Speaker 1: beat the system, and you're not gonna beat the system.
Speaker 1: Put in the work.
Speaker 4: We got more with Leslie Jones.
Speaker 13: When we come back as the break this Club, Good
Speaker 13: Morning Morning, everybody is j MV.
Speaker 1: Charlamage the God. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still
Speaker 1: kicking it with Leslie F N.
Speaker 5: Jones, Charlamagne, Leslie, Who do you think curse is more?
Speaker 6: You?
Speaker 1: And Samuel L. Jackson We about it the same because
Speaker 1: we did meet and both of us, Wow, you think
Speaker 1: I cursed a lot? I do.
Speaker 5: The name of your book is Leslie because.
Speaker 1: That's what people say when they come up to me.
Speaker 1: They'd be like, Leslie Jones. So that's that's why I
Speaker 1: made it that. But it's the first time I cursed
Speaker 1: in front of my mom because she knew I had
Speaker 1: a bad mouth. My dad did too. My dad knew
Speaker 1: I had a bad mouth, but they was like, no,
Speaker 1: you respect enough to not to curse around here. And
Speaker 1: we was walking to the store. I will never forget
Speaker 1: this walking to the store and I had just went
Speaker 1: to a parade where they had to jump and I
Speaker 1: was like, mom, you should have seen the major rest.
Speaker 1: They were swinging the ass and my mom was like, yo,
Speaker 1: you not talking to your friend. You better watch your mouth, girl,
Speaker 1: And I was about to get into the you know,
Speaker 1: seting all of that, and she was like, ooh, what
Speaker 1: you sound like when you're not around me. I was like,
Speaker 1: very bad, very bad. But I think that me and
Speaker 1: Samuel L. Jackson are the same. I think we curse
Speaker 1: at the same and you say met each other in Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was hilarious and I actually imitated him on SNL.
Speaker 1: I missed that. Oh my god, we did family feud.
Speaker 12: Let me tell you.
Speaker 1: It was one of those those times where you they
Speaker 1: literally literally let us just have a little fun. So
Speaker 1: they wanted me to be Samuel Jackson, but they was
Speaker 1: gonna put the beard on me, and for some reason,
Speaker 1: we didn't have the beard, and I just dressed like
Speaker 1: he like, with the hat and the leather jacket. And
Speaker 1: it's like I did look like Samuel, what didn't? I
Speaker 1: just looked like Leslie. And so when he came to
Speaker 1: me and he was like Samuel Jackson, man, we were
Speaker 1: laughing so hard because Kennan was like, wait a minute, now,
Speaker 1: you don't look like no dampse.
Speaker 5: Was he pretending to be God?
Speaker 1: And all I kept saying is you can burn it.
Speaker 4: Half Jackson.
Speaker 1: Something that you bring to a party why do I
Speaker 1: gotta bring something?
Speaker 4: You invited me.
Speaker 1: That's a stupid ass question. You're burning al. It was
Speaker 1: just like really really fun but yeah, when I finally
Speaker 1: met him, Yeah, it was just like so funny.
Speaker 13: But I think he cursed less when he met me
Speaker 13: because I gotta ask. So you talked about you remember bombing.
Speaker 13: So I always ask comedians when they come up, you
Speaker 13: remember your worst show and your best show.
Speaker 1: I can name ten straight. That is probably the same
Speaker 1: type of worst. Let me see, I fell off the stage. No,
Speaker 1: but that wasn't my worst show. I fell off the
Speaker 1: stage and got right back up and was like I'm
Speaker 1: a stunt man too, and kept rook.
Speaker 4: But you're talking about like a bomb, Like I remember
Speaker 4: Kevin kep up here one time.
Speaker 13: You told me about the time where they threw a
Speaker 13: chicken wing at the Charles only threw a chicken wing
Speaker 13: at him, right, that was one of his worst shows.
Speaker 4: So what was like that one show that's always in
Speaker 4: your mind?
Speaker 1: And be like that con venue I was say, Riddles
Speaker 1: maybe in Chicago was always kind of a hard room
Speaker 1: to do. I'm riddles A d Ray used.
Speaker 12: To host it.
Speaker 1: What happened today? I think that's when I fell off
Speaker 1: the chair. I stood up on a chair and then
Speaker 1: fell off the chair.
Speaker 8: But now I still ripped it.
Speaker 1: I could just tell you funny like I got introduced
Speaker 1: in Omaha at this poetry poetry show and this is
Speaker 1: was so hilarious, Like I was, you know, and I
Speaker 1: was beautiful, like young, had long hair. On the road
Speaker 1: and you know, dudes be trying to talk to you,
Speaker 1: and especially the ones that you want to talk to.
Speaker 1: So I remember this. Wats the dude was trying to
Speaker 1: talk to me. He was fine, looked like Bob Marley.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, you're definitely going to the hotel room.
Speaker 1: So I'm talking to him and then dudes like, I'm
Speaker 1: about to introduce you, right, And I had on these
Speaker 1: clunky ass sandals or something, and he introduced me, and man,
Speaker 1: I came down that step and Summersault rode right into
Speaker 1: in front of the thing and jump back up. I
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, that's how I come on stage. That's
Speaker 1: how I come on stage.
Speaker 6: Man.
Speaker 1: I looked over and the roster was paying his bill
Speaker 1: to leave. I said, you you what about the best show?
Speaker 4: So the best show? What was the most amazing show
Speaker 4: that you still love?
Speaker 1: I just can't. Okay, it's just too many. I would say.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite ones is when I went to
Speaker 1: Grand Rapids, Michigan and they had a whole section that
Speaker 1: was death and they had the girl doing the Yeah
Speaker 1: they were deaf, and she was signing so you know,
Speaker 1: I have a dirty show. And I was like, how
Speaker 1: you say something? So she was like doing that, so
Speaker 1: I was like and then she got really tired, and
Speaker 1: I was like, ain't that's something the white girl got
Speaker 1: tired of sucking.
Speaker 10: Man?
Speaker 1: Grand Rapports where they were on fire. There's so many
Speaker 1: good shows. I mean when I was on tour with Cat,
Speaker 1: like so many, Oh my god, I have to tell
Speaker 1: the story because I know I can't remember it. Okay.
Speaker 1: So it was the beginning of the tour. We was
Speaker 1: in Chicago, I remember this. So it was a New
Speaker 1: Year's show, so we went out performing. Cat was late,
Speaker 1: so I had to go out and you know, keep
Speaker 1: performing or whatever. So when Cat got there, you know,
Speaker 1: Cat is Cat. So this dude was waiting with a
Speaker 1: fur coat, like this beautiful black fur coat. So he
Speaker 1: was like, Cat, I want you to wear an on
Speaker 1: say I want you wearing on s taste? So Cat
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, so you put the coat on and
Speaker 1: he went out, and you know, people lost it and
Speaker 1: they was already mad that he was late, but to
Speaker 1: see him, they lost it. They lost they he was
Speaker 1: going crazy. Cat took off that coat and strew it
Speaker 1: out into the audience and dude was like, dude fainted. No, man, Dude,
Speaker 1: that coat was like fifteen thousand dollars. They ripped that part.
Speaker 1: He was just like, Yo, probably gave him the money.
Speaker 1: No he did not, No, he did not. Hear about
Speaker 1: Cat being so generous. He may gave me it. I
Speaker 1: just didn't know. I don't know, but I think Cat
Speaker 1: was like, that's the way the Kuokie cruminosy. You know
Speaker 1: Chris Rock.
Speaker 5: He did the forward to your book and you talk
Speaker 5: about your relationship with Chris Rock.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I'm known him forever. I know, you know,
Speaker 1: all the comedians known each other forever. Chris I met
Speaker 1: Tony Rock before I actually met Chris Rock, but just
Speaker 1: known each other forever. And I used to always just
Speaker 1: bug out of him and be like, Yo, I'm only
Speaker 1: gonna make it if somebody like you tell them I'm funny, Well,
Speaker 1: you ain't telling them I'm funny Christy and he'd just
Speaker 1: be like he always said. He didn't say I wasn't ready,
Speaker 1: but he did say that, but he was like, no,
Speaker 1: they're not ready for you, That's what he was saying.
Speaker 1: But I was always man. I would chase him out
Speaker 1: to the car at the Lave Factory. I would chase
Speaker 1: him all the way out to this car and I'd
Speaker 1: be like, what the yo, what you're doing? Like dot
Speaker 1: you see me ripping these mom and he just smile
Speaker 1: at me and get in this car.
Speaker 5: Like God that it.
Speaker 11: Chris.
Speaker 5: I loved it, he said In the four Door, he
Speaker 5: said he talked about how SNL could easily find white
Speaker 5: comedians because of the institutions, but don't have an idea
Speaker 5: with the find funny black people.
Speaker 8: So how difficult is it for a black comedian to
Speaker 8: be discovered for it?
Speaker 1: And just like what he said, like you find them
Speaker 1: in the institution, you find the funny bitches at the DMV.
Speaker 1: And that's real talk. Like Barbara Carlile. I will always
Speaker 1: mentioned Barbara Carlyle because Barbara Carlile when I was coming out,
Speaker 1: was one of the biggest female combat like so freaking funny,
Speaker 1: like funny as hell. How she didn't blow up, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, because she didn't say have the
Speaker 1: same opportunities as maybe a white you know, female comic
Speaker 1: can get seen easier if they get the laugh at
Speaker 1: thory spots in the comedy store and the seller and
Speaker 1: all of that stuff, you know, and really like we
Speaker 1: have to vouch for each other, like at the seller
Speaker 1: had to vouch for for yam I always say her name, Yaminica,
Speaker 1: always said her name wrong. She she loves that I
Speaker 1: mess her name up. But she'd be like, you know
Speaker 1: how to say my name, bitch, one of the man
Speaker 1: When I say y'am Amika, and she gonna be like, god,
Speaker 1: damn it, Leslie so funny, Oh one of my faith.
Speaker 1: Oh she's so funny. So and she don't care. She
Speaker 1: will just tell you tell her. But at first they
Speaker 1: weren't gonna let her in the cellar. So I was like, yo,
Speaker 1: if I hadn't got S and L that would be me,
Speaker 1: So let her in. You got white comics down there
Speaker 1: talking about having sex with their wife with a Christmas roll,
Speaker 1: and you talking about she's blue and off. That put
Speaker 1: her up, so you know, it's it's like that's it's
Speaker 1: just that type of community. You know, it's that type
Speaker 1: of community. But but you know, Chris, Chris knew what
Speaker 1: he did.
Speaker 5: It take somebody like a Chris to say, yo, you
Speaker 5: need to put her on.
Speaker 1: Well now, I mean nowadays, now it's different. Now we're
Speaker 1: getting a lot more love. But back in the day, yeah,
Speaker 1: you got to get introduced through Amel. You know, that's
Speaker 1: how it is.
Speaker 13: An old boys club. We got more with Leslie Jones.
Speaker 13: When we come back, don't move.
Speaker 1: It's to breakfast Club.
Speaker 4: Good morning Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is dj.
Speaker 13: N V Charlamagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 13: We're still kicking it with Leslie f N Jones. Every
Speaker 13: comedian always talk about bad promoters, and promoters are always badness.
Speaker 1: How bad was seisty shot?
Speaker 6: Oh? Very like?
Speaker 1: And I'm just to tell you, I'm pretty sure just
Speaker 1: to shisty ass promoters. They're bad for everybody, but for women,
Speaker 1: it's extra. It's an extra layer there because oh god,
Speaker 1: I hate to say it like this, because it was
Speaker 1: really hard in the beginning because promoters, you know, you
Speaker 1: have some of the promoters that think they're gonna get
Speaker 1: the fuck you or either like that, you that that
Speaker 1: you are being brought for them to man, I came
Speaker 1: from hose pimps and crackheads and drug dealers. You comedy
Speaker 1: is jokes. You are clowns, Like I wouldn't fk you
Speaker 1: with my enemies, and I don't like that bitch, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying her with a hard but not yours.
Speaker 12: So so.
Speaker 1: So you would like when I first came, it was
Speaker 1: like if you if there was a headline and they
Speaker 1: want you to go on the road, it's like, are
Speaker 1: you I would get on rom because I was funny,
Speaker 1: but you you definitely would have the moments where hey,
Speaker 1: why you not being nice to the promoter? The promoter
Speaker 1: like you, why you're not being nice to the promoter?
Speaker 1: That is seventy two and he has all my grandfather's
Speaker 1: suit Damn, What the fuck you think I'm gonna fuck
Speaker 1: the promoter? What deal is you making?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: I mean that topic or the hotels, like I remember
Speaker 1: another comment, we're all on the same hallway and they
Speaker 1: didn't get no bitches because they're not gonna get no bitches.
Speaker 1: And they're like, oh, we're just trying to figure out
Speaker 1: who's gonna get to come to Leslie's room. I said,
Speaker 1: none of you hoes. And what was so funny is
Speaker 1: that I actually was hooking up with somebody to night
Speaker 1: and then walked right down the hallway and I opened
Speaker 1: up the doors like, yeah, that's who gets the not
Speaker 1: you dirty Sam. Any comic you asked me and asked
Speaker 1: about me will tell you I am that bitch that yeah,
Speaker 1: we are with us. You know, it's funny what you
Speaker 1: talking about with the money thing.
Speaker 5: That's what I've always concerned about with women and promoters
Speaker 5: because I'm always like, moots be short. They're more than
Speaker 5: likely to be like I'm not giving her, like nothing
Speaker 5: gonna happen.
Speaker 1: Oh, I talking about worst shows and I'm a mentioned
Speaker 1: everybody name in this. Okay, So I'm in New York,
Speaker 1: New York. You know, it's not that many women when
Speaker 1: I was doing it. It's fute and we get them
Speaker 1: shows or whatever. And yes, I did a show for
Speaker 1: Raydija Ray. So he books me in Brooklyn, right, and
Speaker 1: it's I remember it was Drew Frasier somebody else and
Speaker 1: I don't remember who this promoter's name was, but he
Speaker 1: I guess because I was a female and the crowd
Speaker 1: wasn't good, So Drew went up, he did all right.
Speaker 1: Another comedian went up and they wasn't really doing that well.
Speaker 1: So he comes over to me and he goes, yo,
Speaker 1: just do ten minutes. Just do ten minutes. Because he
Speaker 1: didn't know me, so he's like, just do ten minutes.
Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, well, no problem. And he
Speaker 1: was like, I pay you when you get off stage.
Speaker 1: So I was like, all right, all right. So I
Speaker 1: get on stage and I'm ripping, I'm destro roying ten
Speaker 1: minutes I got off. What if you get off stage?
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, you told me, because he literally
Speaker 1: came up and said, I don't think I'm gonna have
Speaker 1: all the money, just do ten minutes. So I was like,
Speaker 1: you just told me to do ten minutes. He's like, no,
Speaker 1: you were killing off that I'm not paying you. So
Speaker 1: I'm just like new to New York and I'm just
Speaker 1: like dude, like and so I go to Raid Desiahn
Speaker 1: and I was like, yo, this is not gonna pay me.
Speaker 1: You booked me. What the raid? And he was like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm talking to know. So I called Rob Stapleton.
Speaker 1: I love Rob Stapleton. Rob Stapleson called Big Bef and
Speaker 1: they got out that car. Big Bes's hand was around
Speaker 1: that promoter's next so fast, he was like and then
Speaker 1: he was like, you're gonna do a can female like that?
Speaker 1: And he was like, nah, dude, it wasn't like that.
Speaker 1: She just wasn't patient enough to wait for me get money,
Speaker 1: like like like real talk. They do think that they
Speaker 1: can pump punk people. I had a lot of had
Speaker 1: a lot of promotions in Atlanta. Oh so when you're
Speaker 1: paying all my money? So so how much I owe you?
Speaker 1: Only owe you six hundred? No, you owe me eleven hundred.
Speaker 1: Keep counting. Okay, No ride to the airport like shit
Speaker 1: like that. Oh no, I have been left at venues.
Speaker 1: Oh car leaving Okay, I'm the female. You should wait
Speaker 1: for the female. Oh they went back to the hotel. Really,
Speaker 1: Oh no, it's a lot of And that's why that's
Speaker 1: why I always say now because I'm sure sure it's
Speaker 1: a little different now because women do speak up. But
Speaker 1: I always tell male comedians when you're on the road
Speaker 1: with a female, can you look out for her?
Speaker 2: Look out for her?
Speaker 1: Because like, like I know a lot of female comedians
Speaker 1: that's been raped, that's been hurt, beat up, slapped by
Speaker 1: other comedians and you know who you are real talk
Speaker 1: like it's like it's another battle. It's another battle because
Speaker 1: we are women. But like I said, I'm a big
Speaker 1: six feet you know, she got to go on like
Speaker 1: five minutes.
Speaker 5: Are you going to be the host of the daily
Speaker 5: You're doing it all next week?
Speaker 12: I don't know.
Speaker 8: And don't you tell me you want? I mean with
Speaker 8: that something you would want, you.
Speaker 1: Know what, I'm not gonna lie. I think I'd be
Speaker 1: pretty good at it. And I think I think nighttime
Speaker 1: is ready for a black woman, ready for one that's
Speaker 1: ready to to to go do it, because I feel
Speaker 1: like I've been built for that. Like I call myself
Speaker 1: the two thousand year old woman because I've been through
Speaker 1: every decade. But I feel like they need somebody who
Speaker 1: is can bring joy and bring laughter and and and
Speaker 1: and inform people in a way that they like take
Speaker 1: their medicine with. It's time to bring some laughter back
Speaker 1: to life.
Speaker 12: Period.
Speaker 1: It's time for everybody to stop being so offended. How
Speaker 1: about this is what I want to say. Everybody has
Speaker 1: been acting for the last five years like a five
Speaker 1: year old. Everybody needs to stop the what about me?
Speaker 1: Because it's just starting to become ridiculous at this point
Speaker 1: and grow the fuck up. I am sick of it, y'all,
Speaker 1: sick of it. And you know you, you know, you
Speaker 1: know you're showing your ass. You know what's right, you
Speaker 1: know what's wrong. Stop acting like a five year old.
Speaker 1: And that's what our society is acting right like now.
Speaker 1: And you know, like everybody in here know, it'd always
Speaker 1: be a black woman that come and go knock it all,
Speaker 1: fix it right. It was her nail, Carter, Oprah Winfrey.

Speaker 5: waste letters? Why name needs something where most of the
Speaker 5: letters are going to be silent. This man name is
Speaker 5: shun Kendrick, but it's spelled s h u n e
Speaker 5: k n d rik. Shouldn't it be s h u
Speaker 5: n k e n d r i c K whatever. Listen,
Speaker 5: I need everyone to listen to this story closely because
Speaker 5: this story is a prime example of why patients is
Speaker 5: a virtue. People see, Kendrick was twenty one years old.
Speaker 5: He's doing seven years. Well, he was doing seven years
Speaker 5: in the Mississippi Correctional Facility for aggravated assault. So that
Speaker 5: means he's been locked up since he was a juvenile. Right,
Speaker 5: he's been locked up since he was like thirteen fourteen.
Speaker 5: He clearly must have had a public defender because no juvenile,
Speaker 5: she gets seven years for aggravating assault. But either way,
Speaker 5: this young man did his time and he was scheduled
Speaker 5: to be released in December of twenty two in needless
Speaker 5: to say, that didn't happen. Why didn't it happen? Let's
Speaker 5: go to WAPT sixteen ABC News for the report.
Speaker 16: Police an inmate who had only a few months left
Speaker 16: to serve before escaping from prison is now looking at
Speaker 16: decades behind bars. Shake Kendrick Huffman is the person that
Speaker 16: you see on your screen. The twenty one year old
Speaker 16: escaped the Central Mississippi Correctional Facility in Pearl August twenty
Speaker 16: fifth of last year. He was serving the last four
Speaker 16: months of a seven year sentence for aggravated assault. Investigator
Speaker 16: said that Huffman broke into a nearby home and held
Speaker 16: the homeowner at gunpoint for hours. Thorty said Huffman stole
Speaker 16: a vehicle from the home and at some point rammed
Speaker 16: a law enforcement vehicle at a roadblock before running away.
Speaker 16: Huffman is sentenced to sixty years for two counts of kidnapping.
Speaker 16: He'll serve forty of those years of the sentence with
Speaker 16: twenty suspended.
Speaker 1: Jesus, that's wild.
Speaker 9: He's an idiot.
Speaker 1: Shake Kendrick. You did a seven years in prison.
Speaker 5: He was four months away from coming home, and you
Speaker 5: decided to break out, and once you got out, you
Speaker 5: broken to our nearby home, held three people at gun
Speaker 5: point four hours. Then you stole a car from one
Speaker 5: of those hostages before before you crashed it. Then you
Speaker 5: fled on foot, and then you was found hiding in
Speaker 5: a trash can just two miles away from the prison.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 5: I know we have conversations about these kids lacking patience,
Speaker 5: but this is ridiculous. He was four months away from
Speaker 5: being able to live in any trash can you wanted to.
Speaker 5: If you wanted to come home and identify as Oscar
Speaker 5: the grout, you could have done that legally. But no,
Speaker 5: four months from being released and you ended up escaping
Speaker 5: from jail and then committing a series of crimes that
Speaker 5: got you forty years. I know what the hell happened?
Speaker 5: Shen Kendrick got a boot. Un Kendrick has a prison bay,
Speaker 5: all right. That prison bay was pressuring him, Oh, you're
Speaker 5: just gonna leave me in here, okay. I gave you cigarettes,
Speaker 5: I gave you honey, buns. We used to be in
Speaker 5: this cell cheek to cheek, okay, and you just gonna
Speaker 5: leave me. You were free, shun, Kendrick. All right, you
Speaker 5: served seven years just to wait until the last four
Speaker 5: months to act up. There's only one logical reason that
Speaker 5: I could think of that would make a man want
Speaker 5: to stay in, and that's love. The man is penismatized,
Speaker 5: all right. Somebody's Indiana bones got him open, all right.
Speaker 5: This is like the movie Life in reverse. Instead of
Speaker 5: coming up with a plan to get out, Kendrick was
Speaker 5: coming up with a plan to stay in because he
Speaker 5: loves the taste of Frankston beans.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 5: Him and his locked up lover had an argument, big
Speaker 5: race that I gave you the best seven years of
Speaker 5: my life. How many rolls of toilet paper have I
Speaker 5: sacrificed for you?
Speaker 1: And he was just gonna leave me.
Speaker 5: The thought of freedom and vagina should have motivated this
Speaker 5: man to be on his best behavior for four months,
Speaker 5: but instead, the fear of losing his gusband motivated him
Speaker 5: to get caught so he could stay in prison. He
Speaker 5: didn't want to leave. Man too hard to adjust to
Speaker 5: this new world. He got to come home and pick
Speaker 5: a pronoun. He don't even know what that is. And
Speaker 5: the thought of doing all that without his bait, he
Speaker 5: couldn't handle it.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
Speaker 8: All partners want is.
Speaker 5: The significant other to show their commitment to them. Or
Speaker 5: there's no bigger sign that you're committed than adding forty
Speaker 5: years to a seven year sentence. And what twenty year
Speaker 5: old or twenty one year old Chunk Kendrick is going
Speaker 5: realize is that at twenty one, no d is good
Speaker 5: enough to make that kind of commitment.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 1: Ah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: Run, You and that man not even gonna be together
Speaker 5: in five years, but you still gonna have to do
Speaker 5: all that forty all because he fell in love with
Speaker 5: one eyed p.
Speaker 8: A wise man once said that penis to do that
Speaker 8: to you.
Speaker 10: Man.
Speaker 5: Oh please give Shun Kendrick Huffman the biggest he hull.
Speaker 12: Sad man.
Speaker 10: But what if he was just a He was a
Speaker 10: kid when he went, He institutionalized and afraid of society.
Speaker 2: As a grown man, I believe that what I'm saying,
Speaker 2: he probably scanned the world.
Speaker 5: He probably too hard to adjust. You gotta come home,
Speaker 5: You gotta, you know, learn what he could have learned
Speaker 5: the trade. That's why they should teach. That's why correctional
Speaker 5: phyllicist facility should be actual correctional facilities.
Speaker 8: Let me learn the trade.
Speaker 5: Let this man get, you know, some proper education in
Speaker 5: there so he can come home and be a productive citizen.
Speaker 10: Yeah, they don't do any real life rehabilitation in prison,
Speaker 10: especially in America.
Speaker 2: We have the most people in prison in this country.
Speaker 5: They call them correctional facilities, but they not correcting none.
Speaker 2: Now when the judges on the prisons, Kendrick, I won't
Speaker 2: play a game.
Speaker 5: No, I do not want to play a game, all right.
Speaker 5: This man name is spelled s h U n e
Speaker 5: k N d r I c K. We do not
Speaker 5: need to play a game. It's Mississippi. You don't play
Speaker 5: a game with racius Mississippi. His his name is Sean Kendrick.
Speaker 5: We do not need to play a game. Sure, you
Speaker 5: really want to play this game home?
Speaker 8: All right? Oh, I guess it's time to play a
Speaker 8: game up?
Speaker 5: Yes?

Speaker 13: Charlamagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got
Speaker 13: a special guest in the building going out of.
Speaker 5: Styling, profiling, limousine, riding, jet flying, just stealing, wheeling and dealing.
Speaker 5: Son of a gun, the nature boy.
Speaker 8: Now, good morning. You get tired here if you just
Speaker 8: run up on you in the airport.
Speaker 1: And start screaming that all the time, and I love it.
Speaker 12: I love it.
Speaker 1: How are you doing today? First, and for thank you
Speaker 1: you're doing good man.
Speaker 5: You're in town for the comic con right. First of
Speaker 5: a celebrity min tell us about that. Got these great
Speaker 5: cards here?
Speaker 12: Yeah, those are actually gold and there's silver there too, okay.
Speaker 12: And these are all silver that just as one has
Speaker 12: a golden lay in it. Yep. And they're made by
Speaker 12: celebrity men out of Houston and uh distributed by eBay
Speaker 12: through them basically all over there will be at for
Speaker 12: ten thirty a mile.
Speaker 5: When you first started your wrestling career, did you see
Speaker 5: things like this and that'd be trading card which.
Speaker 12: Is never never never imagine, especially in silver or gold
Speaker 12: what made you, what.
Speaker 8: Made you finally retire for good after fifty years?
Speaker 12: Well, I had that one match last year. You know,
Speaker 12: I still feel great. It's funny people misunderstand what I say.
Speaker 12: I wish I could wrestle again, like I mean, I
Speaker 12: feel great. I'm probably one of the few guys that
Speaker 12: still was no hip replacements or new replacements or shoulder
Speaker 12: and I feel great. So I could, But I yeah,
Speaker 12: actually I could, but I won't.
Speaker 1: Now when you still when you first started.
Speaker 12: I didn't want to quit. You did to benci Man's
Speaker 12: at his time. Okay, so when you.
Speaker 13: First started wrestling, break us down because you know, you
Speaker 13: want it to be different from everybody else, and you
Speaker 13: were different from from everybody else. So what gave you
Speaker 13: that mind frame? What said this is what I'm gonna be.
Speaker 13: I'm gonna wear these robes, I'm gonna be fly, I'm
Speaker 13: gonna be I was.
Speaker 12: After the airplane crash nineteen seventy five, I crashed in
Speaker 12: an airplane, killed the guy, and paralyzed to other guys.
Speaker 12: While I was re rehabbing and hopefully hopeful of over
Speaker 12: wrestling again, I met a guy named George Coddess And
Speaker 12: why we may make kills a bit like Buddy Rogers.
Speaker 12: Buddy was very popular in the fifties and sixties nature
Speaker 12: with Buddy Rogers. So I just took that and then
Speaker 12: the words of Harley Race Remember Harley Flair took rogers
Speaker 12: gimmick to a whole new level.
Speaker 5: He lied to Yeah, he had no idea who that is?
Speaker 5: He survived crashed in nineteen seventy five. You survived that
Speaker 5: a couple of times. When you survive a plane crash,
Speaker 5: how does your life change? Like, what is your mentality
Speaker 5: from that point on?
Speaker 12: Well, when you're younger, you don't think about it. Maybe
Speaker 12: I well I made it, you know, I was. I was,
Speaker 12: you know a little bit intimidated to fly again for
Speaker 12: the first time. But I got one of those private
Speaker 12: jets today to get here to make sure I could
Speaker 12: be here on time jet, and it's great a way
Speaker 12: to go. I may never fly commercial again.
Speaker 8: When you crashed in the plane, did it like explode
Speaker 8: around you?
Speaker 12: Like, no, we are out ran out of gas, so
Speaker 12: there's no explosion. But it normally a small as a
Speaker 12: twin engine sets the three ten. Normally, when you hit
Speaker 12: an orchard of trees or whatever they would call it,
Speaker 12: your little cartwheel plane. We were going so fast we
Speaker 12: fell from six thousand feet and we just pour down
Speaker 12: and hold them orchard and landed in a railroad embankment fantrax,
Speaker 12: enough of it, just a half a mile from a runaway. Wow.
Speaker 4: How much practice did you guys have to do when
Speaker 4: it came out of practice?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: No, there was no practice back then. You just work
Speaker 4: out and just the matches that eight and you're there.
Speaker 12: Yeah, because I'm a little different than a lot of guys.
Speaker 12: A lot of guys like to go out and well
Speaker 12: I'm not saying it, but later on because of it's
Speaker 12: part of the deal now where the guys have to
Speaker 12: rehearse and all that. But I just was always the
Speaker 12: old school. Wait, you got to hear the crowd. You
Speaker 12: can't rehearse something you don't know all the people are
Speaker 12: gonna react to. And that's one of the problems today.
Speaker 12: When the young kids they had this match put together,
Speaker 12: they walk out the door and the fans aren't reacting
Speaker 12: on the way they want it. And because they don't
Speaker 12: have the experience, not the ability, but don't have the
Speaker 12: experience that they can't change it around. And that's why
Speaker 12: sometimes but they're not getting a reaction from the crowd
Speaker 12: they want.
Speaker 1: So when you you were wrestling, there was no practice.
Speaker 4: Is two men in that match, and whatever happened happening.
Speaker 13: You get slapped into the old coming and we just
Speaker 13: know from this and when you get slapped in the face,
Speaker 13: it wasn't practice, like, oh this just slap me in
Speaker 13: my face.
Speaker 12: Oh tell them to wow, yeah, hit me with brass snugs.
Speaker 12: We just did it there with brass snudgs in old days.
Speaker 1: Not the real bugs.
Speaker 12: Bust ourselves off. We're called the hard ways. Jesus Christy,
Speaker 12: you can break the sell blown run here role really
Speaker 12: just a.
Speaker 1: Little oh you know, you gotta hit hard. You just
Speaker 1: look yeah, okay, then I.
Speaker 12: Was always had that surgical little thing right here. That
Speaker 12: was the best part of my work. Give me, get
Speaker 12: me to my blade, and I'm good you had.
Speaker 13: You had a blade in your fingers too, a blade
Speaker 13: in your so you could have missed and went too far.
Speaker 5: But I have a couple of times, y'all gotta have
Speaker 5: some really nice relationships.
Speaker 1: Don't think the same.
Speaker 5: Accidentally cut somebody with a blade and not be the person,
Speaker 5: not be upset.
Speaker 12: At you for Oh no, I was never cut anybody else.
Speaker 12: I myself.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, I give you say, but I have cut.
Speaker 12: Some guys, but they knew it coming and knew it
Speaker 12: was coming.
Speaker 1: So you must think this new wrestling is so soft
Speaker 1: with what you would dealer with.
Speaker 12: It's not soft because they do. Nothing is ever solved.
Speaker 12: It's just a different time. It's like Lawrence Taylor. Good
Speaker 12: Lawrence play right now? You can if you suspended every game, you'd.
Speaker 1: Be fine so much right now?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean or Dick Buckers who just passed away,
Speaker 12: and Lawrence. The rules have just changed. It's still a
Speaker 12: very difficult, very physically to mand the sport. These guys
Speaker 12: are doing stuff and always are jumping off tables and ladders,
Speaker 12: and I only did I only did that a couple
Speaker 12: of times.
Speaker 5: So what was your last match like for you? When
Speaker 5: you thought Jeff Jared and.
Speaker 12: It was great, except for the fact I didn't anticipate.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 12: I psyched myself out and I was dehydrated, and I
Speaker 12: went out there and we put together what I thought
Speaker 12: was a rogal match. Wasn't ever going to be a masterpiece,
Speaker 12: but we'd put together the match, and then I got
Speaker 12: real light headed and about five minutes in the match
Speaker 12: and I said to one of the guys, I'm not
Speaker 12: feeling good. Well it just sent it went around in
Speaker 12: the ring like you saying like his heart's bad or whatever. Right,
Speaker 12: So but we got it straightened out. But it was
Speaker 12: just funny. I just dehydrated and under You came back
Speaker 12: to the dressing him and made me drink through a
Speaker 12: gate age and I went or Kid Rocks and party
Speaker 12: with the kid all night.
Speaker 5: So I was fine, but I thought, you you wish
Speaker 5: you wish you had picked a different person to have
Speaker 5: your last match.
Speaker 1: Again.
Speaker 12: No, that's a misinterpretation, and that's what that's these damn
Speaker 12: podcasts just said and it comes out wrong. There's a
Speaker 12: guy that I that's still active to Ricky Morton from
Speaker 12: the Rock and Roll Express, And if I had if
Speaker 12: I were to have a singles match, not a tag
Speaker 12: So it always was they wanted to have a tag
Speaker 12: match because idn't think I could make it through a
Speaker 12: singles If I was going to have a singles match,
Speaker 12: now it would be with Ricky Morton. He's still active
Speaker 12: and he's doing great, and he was so good and
Speaker 12: I'm a much better bad guy than I am a
Speaker 12: good guy.
Speaker 5: Oh absolutely no, But you always were kind of like
Speaker 5: that you're the bad guy, but then you're like the
Speaker 5: bad guy people root for.
Speaker 12: Yeah, you know what I mean, that's out of respect
Speaker 12: over the ears.
Speaker 5: Yeah, how do you prepare yourself to say, okay, this
Speaker 5: is my my my last, my last match.
Speaker 12: I just focused on what it did, as I had
Speaker 12: four months to really get myself in shape. I mean
Speaker 12: I work out pretty hard anyway, but to really get
Speaker 12: myself and I had made up my mind that I
Speaker 12: would be as as good as shape, not cosmetically obviously,
Speaker 12: because I'm a cosmetic nightmare.
Speaker 1: That's not true.
Speaker 5: One of the ladies out there says, he's so cute,
Speaker 5: And one of the ladies out there said.
Speaker 12: That she hasn't seen any about my shirt since without
Speaker 12: my shirt not so cute. That's my surgery. But just
Speaker 12: I was very I just framed that all forward and
Speaker 12: you know, you know, you're you know, remember Vince Lombardi's
Speaker 12: favorite saying it is fatigued makes cowards of us. All.
Speaker 12: I mean, I wouldn't never worry about getting tired because
Speaker 12: I was always in better shape. So I actually got
Speaker 12: myself and as good as shape as I was in
Speaker 12: nineteen seventy four, I was doing five hundred free squads and.
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, you still work out to this day.
Speaker 12: Yes, really, you know. When I'm home, I haven't gone
Speaker 12: quite a bit, but I go up and train with
Speaker 12: John seen as trainer Rob.
Speaker 4: We got him over Rich Slay. When we come back,
Speaker 4: don't move.
Speaker 1: It's the breakfast Club. Good morning.
Speaker 12: The guy.
Speaker 13: We are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with wrestling.
Speaker 13: Great whoa Rick Flyah Charlamagne.
Speaker 5: I always wanted because you know you you always talk.
Speaker 5: You talked about just stereoidy before, right, but you never
Speaker 5: had the physique of the No.
Speaker 12: I didn't take it. I took steroids when I remember
Speaker 12: it too. Cain't hired a fore. And remember to take
Speaker 12: your pills exactly where.
Speaker 8: That's the only way you get that big physique like that.
Speaker 12: No, you get it through hard work. But you know,
Speaker 12: I wrestled so much. I didn't pay much attention to
Speaker 12: my dad when because they were wrestling. I did a
Speaker 12: lot of like our matches, and when I was younger,
Speaker 12: I like wrestled three hundred hour matches a year. So
Speaker 12: you get mentally here and then you can eat and
Speaker 12: drink what you want and then all of a sudden
Speaker 12: your metabolism changes. Retire you got you gotta be careful,
Speaker 12: you know what I mean?
Speaker 13: So are you still surprised that some of your catchphrases
Speaker 13: still people are saying now to this day and you
Speaker 13: know even you know, some of the rappers still want
Speaker 13: you in their videos, make songs like Off said, who
Speaker 13: was here this week?
Speaker 4: As albums out?
Speaker 1: You know, right?
Speaker 12: Was there a couple of days ago?
Speaker 4: Does that still surprise you when when these rapers call
Speaker 4: you things like that that.
Speaker 12: Really have my dose? You're catching them one too. You
Speaker 12: know with my catch line, nobody could be first, but
Speaker 12: the didn't want it to be next. Yeah, I love
Speaker 12: all He's great metro move and those are great guys.
Speaker 12: Woman's got another one now something? Well?
Speaker 5: Yeah, all said album came out a sound right now?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 5: You had you had a ruption in testing two in
Speaker 5: twenty seventeen. Yeah, then you got put into a coma,
Speaker 5: a repiratory heart failure and ammonia, all kinds of stuff.
Speaker 12: How did you total kidney failure everything.
Speaker 5: To total Jesus Christ, how did that near death experience
Speaker 5: impact that.
Speaker 12: Changed my life? Okay? Because I couldn't walk or anything,
Speaker 12: you know, I didn't have any memory for six months.
Speaker 12: That was when I decided that I needed to make
Speaker 12: sure that everybody that managed him in my life. I
Speaker 12: told not going religion on you. I mean, obviously we
Speaker 12: all have our own religion, and I believe in God
Speaker 12: very strongly. But it really made me aware of telling
Speaker 12: people that I like because you never know. I'm living proof.
Speaker 12: You never know. I was just sitting at a bar,
Speaker 12: like I will be tonight with these guys, and all
Speaker 12: of a sudden I got a pain in my stomach.
Speaker 12: I didn't wake up for thirty one days. Wow, I
Speaker 12: don't remember going to the hospital.
Speaker 8: Damn.
Speaker 5: Do you remember the first person you told you love
Speaker 5: when you finally.
Speaker 12: Well, it must have been my wife, Wendy. I guess
Speaker 12: that would be her. Hogan said that I look at
Speaker 12: him and said, get me a six pack of beer.
Speaker 1: You could see this yourself, the greatest wrestle of all time.
Speaker 12: Yes, I'm not on my Mount Rushmore. Not no, because
Speaker 12: I don't know. I believe. I think you better have
Speaker 12: somebody else put you there. But my Mount Rushmore, in
Speaker 12: terms of importance to the business, is stone coldst obviously undertaker,
Speaker 12: and I think Sean Michaels. Shawn Michaels is the greatest
Speaker 12: performer of all time in our business.
Speaker 1: Why does the rock on your maun rush Uh?
Speaker 12: He would be excepted to stay long enough. I think
Speaker 12: part of the Ron Rushmore is longevity. You know, it's
Speaker 12: hard to be really good. And Rock was great. I mean,
Speaker 12: but he took off and he said, my mom on
Speaker 12: my Rount Rushmore for interview skills and everything else. And
Speaker 12: I remained very close to him, but he uh, you know,
Speaker 12: he just had that unbelievable monk Chris guy and what
Speaker 12: a great guy.
Speaker 5: What do you think the different when the wwww F
Speaker 5: was as far as business.
Speaker 12: W's run like a business. W CW was just catches,
Speaker 12: catch can wow. Everybody everybody had their own thing on.
Speaker 12: And the guy that ran it just he liked creating
Speaker 12: dissension between let's say it's Scott Hall and Kevin with
Speaker 12: the n w O the head guys. Right, obviously there
Speaker 12: are other guys, and it was say Stinging Luger and
Speaker 12: then Hulk and Randy. I mean, he's he just likes
Speaker 12: to create, not create, but right, it was his style
Speaker 12: of doing business and nothing ever works like that. And
Speaker 12: then Hulk had, you know, total creative control, which I
Speaker 12: don't blame him for. He brought He brought a lot
Speaker 12: to the table, but it's just hard to you know,
Speaker 12: to function. I mean they did, and they did great
Speaker 12: for eighty three weeks. At the end of eay three weeks,
Speaker 12: how do you bankrupt ted Turner Dam?
Speaker 5: Because I love the Four Horsemen, I always wondered why
Speaker 5: the Four Horseman never got.
Speaker 12: Oh, never wrote the timeframe? Okay, yeah, if we've been
Speaker 12: where we're ten years early, gotcha. If we come along
Speaker 12: in the nineties, that same four people, yeah, that would
Speaker 12: have been.
Speaker 13: I was always wondering, like, when you talk WWF for
Speaker 13: ww or or NWA or whatever, how do they decide
Speaker 13: who is going to be that quote unquote man.
Speaker 12: Right, you know, they give you the opportunity and you
Speaker 12: got about five minutes do something that the guy goes.
Speaker 8: That people looking like really, yeah, mean you've got that?
Speaker 12: You got we call it gorilla. Right, there's Evince and
Speaker 12: Hunter and whatever the agents are that's got some like
Speaker 12: Michael Hayes, guys that have been there for a while,
Speaker 12: and you got they go out the door and you

Speaker 13: the guy.
Speaker 12: Yeah, well, but when I want to end NBA Championship
Speaker 12: for the first time, now, I guess i'd be eighty one.
Speaker 12: But I wasn't the guy I thought it was. But
Speaker 12: I had wrestled so many guys that were really good
Speaker 12: in that one area of the mid Atlantic right that
Speaker 12: when I went on the road and started wrestling guys
Speaker 12: for an hour that didn't know anything about wrestling, when
Speaker 12: I thought I knew it all, I I was. I
Speaker 12: was lost and I didn't draw, so they took it
Speaker 12: off me. And then I prepared myself and got myself
Speaker 12: back and realized that everybody's not going to be the
Speaker 12: best wrestler every night. And then the second time I
Speaker 12: was ready to go, that's not really turned it on.

Speaker 12: he wanted to work part time and only was great,
Speaker 12: but the best forward bear we earned myself And tell me, do.
Speaker 13: A lot of younger wrestlers come up to you and
Speaker 13: ask for guidance and mentorship, and do you do you
Speaker 13: give it to a lot of the younger wrestlers.
Speaker 12: I try to, but I realized it doesn't mean anything
Speaker 12: because the first thing they're going to they want to
Speaker 12: go look and see what the fans are saying. Yeah,
Speaker 12: social media runs everything.
Speaker 5: How do you think a young Ric Flair would handle
Speaker 5: social media?
Speaker 12: Well, he'd be in jail. We'll be we'll be getting

Speaker 12: she's in a different world, different different planet, different statusphe
Speaker 12: than I was. Did you want her to No? I had,
Speaker 12: I said somebody asked her and she was, you know,
Speaker 12: doing real well in the business world and graduating from college.
Speaker 12: And I saw her looking at the guy asked her
Speaker 12: and he said, well, aren't you doing this? And had
Speaker 12: a talm relations at the time. I saw her just
Speaker 12: I know her like a book. I saw a walk
Speaker 12: around the room and think of herself. She walk over
Speaker 12: to me said you think about it. I said, I
Speaker 12: don't know why. She said, I just want to. I
Speaker 12: think I'm gonna try it.
Speaker 5: She is not the greatest of all time, isn't that
Speaker 5: like the ultimate form of Hamada the U though.
Speaker 12: Well, it's not really. It's because of her little brother,
Speaker 12: my son that passed away. She everything. I think it's
Speaker 12: still in the back of her mind or she she's
Speaker 12: fills fleeing the dream that he lived, which it makes
Speaker 12: it even more special and more personal.
Speaker 8: That's clearly the most important thing to you.
Speaker 12: Yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 5: What do you think sports entertainment is missing right now?
Speaker 12: I don't think it's missing anything, man, I think it's
Speaker 12: tracking on all fours. I mean, every time you turn around,
Speaker 12: Tony is opening up another show, and I've got They've
Speaker 12: got three live shows a week now. Wv's making more money.
Speaker 12: Never I still believe that wrestling is the greatest form
Speaker 12: of sports entertainment there is.
Speaker 8: Oh people will be like, oh, it's not real.
Speaker 12: Yeah, but they're sold out saying it's not real and
Speaker 12: say whatever they want to say. People watch it, and
Speaker 12: it's not just the blue collar fans. I mean the doctors, lawyers,
Speaker 12: everybody loves it. I don't. I think it's a misconception
Speaker 12: as to how much hard work goes into it, especially
Speaker 12: if you're on top now, becauselet's say they're they're if
Speaker 12: they're working a full schedule, they still wrestle, you know,
Speaker 12: one hundred and fifty five times a year. I think
Speaker 12: that's a full schedule, right, But if you're in the
Speaker 12: top tier, you know what you're doing in the three
Speaker 12: days off your half. All you're doing is media media
Speaker 12: for the next round match. There is no time off.
Speaker 6: Really.
Speaker 12: That's why it's nice to Vince or Vince or whoever
Speaker 12: they're calling the shots now. I understand the kids need
Speaker 12: to take a month's break here there.
Speaker 13: I was gonna ask you, how does your body heal
Speaker 13: with so many matches? You're talking one hundred and fifty
Speaker 13: five matches.
Speaker 12: I rested at four hundred and twenty five. I wrestled
Speaker 12: over four hundred times for eight years. We don't rest,
Speaker 12: We just drink and sleep on the plane and then.
Speaker 12: So that's why I got. One of the reasons I
Speaker 12: got into Cannabi's business that I was eating xanax trying
Speaker 12: to sleep on his international flights. You know, I've told him.

Speaker 12: aware of. That Paul kid is it's damn good athletes
Speaker 12: and he didn't fraid anything. Yeah, you know, big part
Speaker 12: of wrestling is they started telling you to jump up
Speaker 12: that turn buck we go through the table. I mean
Speaker 12: that the table doesn't always break the way you wanted to.
Speaker 12: And nothing guaranteed about those tables. You know, they're not
Speaker 12: gimmicked or anything. They're taking their screws out. You got
Speaker 12: him right dead center in the middle. They won't break
Speaker 12: the right way.
Speaker 5: Oh so those tables weren't staged, they weren't Like.
