‘The Breakfast Club' Hosts Blast Adin Ross During N3on Interview, N3on Apologizes To Kai Cenat
Hosts of The Breakfast Club went off on Adin Ross and his fans in the middle of an interview with fellow streamer N3on. During the sit-down, Loren Lorosa read an alleged comment from Ross in the live chat. Ross addressed N3on stating, 'N3on, I promise you tryna belittle you and disrespect you. You s**tin' on all of them. They weird as f**k. F**k them.' He was reportedly referring to the hosts of the controversial morning show. Jess Hilarious promptly chimed in, 'Well, this is not Adin Ross' interview so f**k him too.' N3on somewhat defended Ross in replying, 'Whoa what, we're all friends […] I think we should all come together and just spread happiness.' Jess cut him off and continued, 'Man, f**k all that kumbaya s**t. F**k Adin.' N3on fired back, 'Come on, that's my guy.' To which she responded, 'I don't give a f**k' and brought up one of N3on's problematic moments when he compared Kai Cenat's mother to Harriet Tubman. 'This is the internet. This is not just my chat, my community. The internet— just like me back then— could say whatever they want. So, this isn't a representation of me,' N3on said in defense of himself. Charlamagne Tha God later described the chat as 'wild racist' while N3on claimed he was looking at the same chat and didn't see the alleged racist commentary. 'If we were really a**holes, we wouldn't have had you up here and as soon as I heard about the Kai Cenat thing, we woulda told you to get the f**k on. Disrespecting somebody's mom and then saying that s**t about Harriet Tubman, if we were really being a**holes and tryna belittle you,' Charlamagne noted. N3on believed that he's since become a 'better person,' but Jess feels he's lying about said growth. Nonetheless, he apologized for saying 'f**k' Kai Cenat's mother and calling her a 'fat Harriet Tubman b***h.' Watch the heated ordeal and apology above.

My Secret Auckland: Contemporary dancer Caleb Heke shares their favourite spots in the city
The Breakfast Club in Point Chev is the ultimate brunch destination in my opinion. They've got a great range of pancakes, your classic cafe fare, and a solid line-up of thick shakes. My go-to order? Either the Big Brekkie Club or the Classic Stack Pancakes, and yes, I'm always adding bacon. You can't go wrong. Favourite restaurant for dinner with friends? Punjabi Kitchen on Lincoln Rd is my comfort food heaven. It's only five minutes from where I live and it always hits the spot when I'm after a warm, hearty meal. The spices, the flavours, the portions, it's the kind of place you leave with a full belly and a full heart. Favourite place to take a visitor to? Basement Theatre is always my top recommendation when I've got someone visiting Auckland. It's such a creative and exciting space, showcasing everything from theatre and dance to comedy. No matter who you're with, there's bound to be something on that'll spark a laugh or a deep thought, or both! Favourite spot to finish a night out? The Churchill on Queen St is my go-to wind-down spot after a show at Basement Theatre or Q Theatre. It's a stylish gin bar with a moody, relaxed atmosphere and panoramic views of the city. Something about sipping a cocktail while looking out over Auckland just wraps up the night perfectly. Favourite place to get coffee? Coffee Studio in Corban's Estate, Henderson, is a bit of a hidden gem. It's where Atamira Dance Company is based, so on my lunch breaks I love sneaking over for a regular oat flat white and a caramel slice. The vibe is cute, homely and welcoming and the staff are always down for a chat. Favourite fish-and-chip shop? Smith and Wong's Takeaways has been our family's go-to for years, and for good reason. Sunday night fish and chips just wouldn't be the same without it. Crispy, golden and nostalgic. Favourite trail for a hike? I'm not the most avid hiker but I do love the Waitākere Dam Walk. It's got everything, from lush native bush to rivers and waterfalls (great for a cold dip if you're brave), and the dam itself is stunning to walk across. It's not too long or difficult, which makes it ideal for a cruisy weekend mission. Favourite venue for a gig? The Tuning Fork is one of my favourite venues for live music. It has this chill, intimate vibe where you can either be tearing it up on the dance floor or tucked into a corner with a glass of red. Whether it's an emerging artist or someone you already love, the experience always feels personal and electric. Favourite place to find a bargain? As a dancer, I'm constantly needing vitamins, protein, strapping tape and haircare and Chemist Warehouse is a lifesaver. They've got everything I need at prices that don't make my wallet cry. It's my go-to spot for restocking all the essentials. Caleb Heke (Ngāpuhi) is a contemporary dance artist, born and raised in Tāmaki Makaurau. Caleb has been a dancer with Atamira Dance Company since the end 2020.

Charlamagne accuses Trump of trying to 'make America North Korea' by engaging in 'authoritarian rule' on media
Radio host Charlamagne tha God ranted on Friday about CBS canceling "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert," arguing it was part of President Donald Trump's authoritarian playbook. Colbert announced to his audience Thursday that CBS is axing his show in spring 2026. The host's announcement was met with boos in the studio, as well as displeasure from his liberal fans online. The show's cancellation follows the network and its parent company's settlement with Trump earlier this month after he sued both for "election interference" over a "60 Minutes" interview edit of his 2024 opponent, then-Vice President Kamala Harris. On Friday's episode of the Breakfast Club radio show, Charlamagne dubbed CBS and its parent company Paramount the ignominious title of the program's "Donkey of the Day" in response, while acknowledging that Paramount has provided him with "a lot of opportunities over the years." Charlamagne noted that "The Late Show's" cancellation announcement happened three days after Colbert criticized the settlement between Trump and Paramount as a "big, fat bribe" on air. "It's so obvious that Paramount is doing this to appease Donald Trump," the radio host said. "Paramount cut a $16 million check to Donald Trump so they can get their merger approved and keep the FCC off their backs. That's not business. That's extortion dressed up in a suit and tie. That's hush money for the truth. Steven Colbert gets his show canceled after calling out the deal. That's not coincidence. That's consequence. That's what happens when you speak truth to power in a country where the power don't want to hear the truth." He also raged at the Trump administration as an authoritarian regime trying to shut down dissenting views. "This is textbook authoritarian rule," he said. "'Target your critics,' 'centralize power in a few hands,' 'intimidate through punishment or removal.' And you know what that usually does? Shuts people the F up. Okay? Tightens control over public discourse. Sends a message to all media outlets that criticism of Trump could cost you access, approval, editorial control, or your job. This is what authoritarian regimes do. They weaponize legal systems to punish dissent and control messaging." Charlamagne went on to claim that "The Late Show" has continually had strong ratings and suddenly deciding to end it after political criticism sends a clear message. "It becomes a warning. 'Speak out and we will silence you.' That is textbook authoritarian strategy. Okay? Because it deters further criticism through the fear of retaliation. Okay? 'Make America North Korea.' 'Make America China.' 'Make America Russia,'" he said. "That's where we are if we live in a country where there is strategic silence within corporate or media power structures to limit dissent. Okay, when that happens - well, it's already happened! We are fully under authoritarian rule." "This is not just a media story. It's a free speech funeral in slow motion," he added. CBS said in its statement announcing the cancellation that it was "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night," adding, "It is not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount." Reports indicate "The Late Show" was losing CBS $40 million a year. However, liberal critics, including several top Democrats, have expressed outrage towards CBS, insisting Colbert's show was canceled for political reasons. White House Spokesman Kush Desai told Fox News Digital, "The simple reality is that Stephen Colbert's overdone and unoriginal 'comedy' schtick blasting President Trump and Republicans every night is just not that funny or entertaining." Trump celebrated "The Late Show" cancellation on Truth Social. "I absolutely love that Colbert got fired," he said. "His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert! Greg Gutfeld is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show." Fox News Channel's "Gutfeld!" has surged to become late-night's highest-rated program. In the second quarter of 2025, the show, hosted by Fox star Greg Gutfeld, notched 3 million viewers and 365,000 in the 25-54 age demographic at the 10 p.m. ET hour. In addition to routing cable news competition, "Gutfeld!" outpaced all broadcast and late-night television, including "The Late Show" and other such established programs as Comedy Central's "The Daily Show," ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and NBC's "The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Late Night with Seth Meyers." Fox News Digital reached out to Paramount and did not receive an immediate response.

‘Breakfast Club' blows up over whether Democrats ‘lied' about Biden decline
Radio host Charlamagne tha God clashed Thursday with former CNN commentator Angela Rye over whether former President Joe Biden suffers from dementia and if the alleged cover-up of his decline cost Democrats the election. Charlamagne asked his progressive guest what she thought about Democrats who 'all of a sudden have the courage to tell the truth,' referencing former Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre's party switch and CNN anchor Jake Tapper's book 'Original Sin' which detailed how Biden's inner circle covered up his limitations in office. Advertisement 'Why all of a sudden do they have the courage to speak truth to power when they didn't do that two to three years ago?' he asked on 'The Breakfast Club.' 'I'm trying to figure out why you think it's 'all of a sudden,'' Rye replied. 'It definitely is all of a sudden. C'mon, Angela Rye!' Charlamagne shot back. Rye went on to suggest that exposé books are nothing new and Tapper's is just 'the latest' example. Advertisement But Charlamagne continued to press his guest, arguing that the scandal over Biden's health likely led to the party's election loss. 'Why tell us after it's too late? Why didn't they say these things two years ago when they could have alerted the American people and the American people could have been like, 'You know what? Something is wrong with him. Maybe y'all shouldn't run a different candidate.' Then we probably wouldn't be in this situation,' he insisted. 'I don't know if I believe that,' Rye replied. 'I think that the lie was sexier to people than the truth and they went with the lie,' she added, referring to Trump winning the November election. Advertisement 3 On 'The Breakfast Club,' Charlamagne tha God asked ex-CNN commentator Angela Rye if President Biden has dementia, and if the alleged cover-up was the demise for Democrats in the 2024 presidential election. AP 'Hold on,' Charlamagne pushed back. 'So the lie wasn't Joe Biden is okay?' Charlamagne recounted how Rye blew up at 'Breakfast Club' co-host DJ Envy in 2023 after he suggested Biden had dementia. Advertisement Rye explained she was offended because her grandmother was suffering from dementia. 'He still doesn't have dementia. He does not have dementia,' she said of Biden. 3 Rye went on to suggest that exposé books are nothing new and Tapper's is just 'the latest' example. The Breakfast Club Rye went on to defend Jean-Pierre and suggested she was treated poorly in the White House by colleagues because of her race. 'Now as for what Karine is doing and Jake, invite them on the show and ask them. I don't know. But what I can tell you is Karine had her own experience of being regularly challenged, her brilliance being challenged, by white men who she was supposed to be sharing-,' Rye said. 'She had to lie for that white man every – all the time,' Charlamagne cut in. Rye said she wasn't talking about Biden but about 'staff people as well' in the White House. 'When you are being challenged by your peers rather than covered because they don't want you in a role, that may jade you just a little bit. You might be a little frustrated by that. So, I mean, I get it,' she said. Advertisement 3 Charlamagne continued to call out Rye, claiming Biden's health led to the Democrats losing the election last November. Getty Images Jean-Pierre was one of his most outspoken allies who defended his mental and physical fitness for office going back to 2022. She announced in June that she was leaving the Democratic Party to become an independent. Advertisement She also revealed an upcoming book, 'Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines.' Rye is one of several liberal media figures pushing the idea that President Donald Trump and the Republicans are planning to steal the 2026 midterm election. A spokesperson for Biden did not return Fox News Digital's request for comment.

What happened between N3on and The Breakfast Club? Streamer faces backlash over comments on Kai Cenat's mom
(Image via @BreakfastClubPower105.1FM/YouTube) Ragnesh 'N3on' is once again the center of online drama, and this time, it's not just the internet reacting, but the hosts of The Breakfast Club themselves. The 20-year-old Kick streamer appeared on the iconic hip-hop culture podcast and quickly found himself under fire for past comments involving Kai Cenat's mother and, unexpectedly, Harriet Tubman. The interview clips are now everywhere, and people can't stop watching. Tense vibes as N3on takes the hot seat on The Breakfast Club It started like any other Breakfast Club interview with questions, banter, and the usual digs. But just minutes into N3on's appearance, things took a sharp turn. Host Charlamagne Tha God directly confronted the streamer, asking him to address previous remarks he'd made about fellow streamer Kai Cenat's mom. N3on, visibly uncomfortable, refused to repeat what he had said, stating: 'I'm not going to repeat it… I would never say anything like that again.' Jess Hilarious confronts N3on with the quote that shocked everyone But Jess Hilarious wasn't about to let it slide. The energy went up several notches when Jess Hilarious cut in, clarifying exactly what had been said. She quoted N3on's original comment: 'He said you would fu*k his mom and he's a fat Harriet Tubman bi*ch.' Charlamagne's response was immediate and stunned: 'Jesus Christ. Not only did you disrespect Kai's mother, you disrespected Harriet Tubman?' Apologies, DMs, and a Harriet Tubman reference no one expected From there, the podcast turned into a slow-motion public reckoning. The hosts pressed N3on to confirm whether he had apologized to the parties involved - Kai, his mother, and even Harriet Tubman's family. While N3on claimed he had said sorry to Kai and his mom 'probably four times,' he admitted he hadn't apologized to Tubman's descendants. Jess responded with a straight face: 'That's my aunt.' The tension didn't ease up. According to N3on, when the interview wrapped, the entire panel, Charlamagne, DJ Envy, and Jess Hilarious, walked away without even offering a handshake. 'They didn't even shake my hand, bro. That's crazy,' N3on later told fans. Adin Ross jumps in with a fiery defense of N3on As the clips began making rounds on X (formerly Twitter), fellow Kick ambassador Adin Ross threw in his two cents — and didn't hold back. A pinned comment allegedly left by Adin was read out during the show: 'They're trying to belittle you and disrespect you. You sh**ted on all of them. They are weird as f**k. F**k them.' His defense only fueled the fire, sparking even more debate online over who crossed the line: N3on or the podcast hosts? A storm of memes, reactions, and split opinions Within hours, memes flooded the timeline. Some viewers sided with The Breakfast Club , praising them for calling out N3on's controversial remarks. Others argued the hosts were unnecessarily harsh and turned the interview into a roast session. One thing's clear: N3on's Breakfast Club debut won't be forgotten anytime soon. Whether it helps or hurts his career, the internet is definitely watching and talking. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!
