“Every single moment in our lives is an opportunity to be honest.” -Charlemagne When a REAL one speaks from SC. I’ve been following Charlemagne before “healing” after healing…. And whatever box people want to place him in. He’s accessed ALL of himself and that’s very rare for a young black man to do while Married and being a father. Salute my brotha, thank you for STaYInG TRue. I love watching his evolution, every season was needed to get to this FRUIT! Juicy and ripe! Thank you Jay Shetty for bringing him on. Charlemagne can truly sit at any table. Tried and TRuE!
Within 30 minutes of this talk, I was moved to purchase your book. I downloaded the ebook version. I started scrolling through the book, then before I knew it I have finished the introduction 😳. I stopped reading to write this comment. On to Chapter 1 and it opened strong with conviction.
@@Lisalanaola do you know that CTG drugged and he and his friends took advantage of a 15-year-old girl?? Yes what they did to her I can't even fix my mouth to repeat it. Watch the Tasha k interview with Jessica Reid. And to show you how cocky he is.. the openly admitted it. He also admitted, giving his now wife, Spanish fly and alcohol then had sex with her while she was asleep. Asleep you hear me?? Now I know what we call that where I'm from. Charlamagne is a monster ?this s*** just ain't caught up with him yet?
You obviously haven't done your research on charlamagne tha God charlamagne tha God openly admitted to giving his wife Spanish fly and alcohol so you could have sex. He also drugged A 15 year old girl. (Jessica Reid) Please!!! He's a monster trying to sale a book
I kind of agree. He’s totally inconsistent and maybe trying to find his lane? He can be super thoughtful and do some of the best interviews and sometimes commentary out there but then also put out a TON of negativity and really old tropes about gay people, race relations, politics, etc. he’s always complaining about media when HE is media and he does the same thing everyone else does. So many uninformed opinions. This is not the year to be doing that anymore. He could be the change he seeks. Our our more facts - inform and inspire people to get unfolded and be change agents. So many positive things he could be doing and he’s not. He could totally do better which is why I’m leaving the comment. He can still be funny, honest, silly, serious - all the things but he should cut out the negativity and toxicity. I know he can do it and it’s probably help his anxiety to be more authentic rid in that way as well. Stop doing the same old uninformed opinion podcast shows and circuits. I know he’s on his journey just like we all are. He’s come a long way but like all of us (without the influential platforms though) so too. 🙏💜 Anyway just my opinion.
@@hicksa1 Agree. He can still at times be really really toxic. And also uninformed. The comment section under his shows and clips are some of the very worst out there and he initiates that. But then at the same time he can be really thoughtful and compassionate. It’s too inconsistent for me at this point :/
Charlamagne tha God is a monster he drugged the 15 year old girl and took advantage of her and allowed his friends to participate in the act as well. This is not allegedly to avoid prosecution he played to a lesser charge. watch the Tasha k interview with Jessica Reid.
This was such a great conversation. Felt like therapy. The story/analogy of the raft was a revelation for me. Success being a prison…so many things. Thanks to both of you for this.
I really resonate with the point about no time is ever wasted. We can always use each day as lessons on this life journey- it just depends on our perspective. We can always learn something from something.
I throughly enjoyed every moment of this conversation. Macro conversations should be what’s in, and micro conversations out. Thank you both for this symphony of wisdom and truth 🙏🏾🫶🏾✨
Prison? Done nothin to go there honestly. My perception is cleaning as the lies impacted it severely . Now i know all involved it makes this easy . Trust is hard for me since no1 can be truthful without standing in their own way or dont want to hurt someones feelings. Well lies hurt more n offer 0 healing. Truth hurts but comes wit healing... self healed aka imma master healer ⚡️
Since its a show , shitty one, shitshow(i didnt name it) . Let me take a shit here, my spiritual verses havnt been heard in 7yrs + but the energy for them as been given so without words i give truth(undensed energy) . I havnt even started. Tongue tied due to figurin out whos playin me. But not the case. Yall see somethin in me otherwise i wouldnt be here. Im done playin the shit show.
@@WoLFNardzBlueSparkz-dp5vzcharlamagne tha God drugged and sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl and he also openly admitted how he used alcohol and Spanish fly to have sex with his now wife while she was asleep before they got married. And this is the spokesperson for mental illness that y'all are praising at the moment and you wonder why the black community is in the state that it in right now we keep giving passes to abusers
Love love love this episode. Always Enjoy Charlamagne, beautiful to see his growth as i imagine it's not easy to do with the world watching. Yet he is still so transparent about it all. Could have listened more. Thanks
So many nuggets coming out of Charla. I couldn't stop listening. He is the "tribe" that I am looking for in my life. (e.g., the judgments when they don't even know you, etc.). Many thanks for this. So proud of my black brothers right now.
You should listen to what Jessica Reid has to say about him. She's the 15 year old girl who CTG. Drugged and he and his friends took advantage of her. He's also the guy who openly admitted to giving his now wife before they were married Spanish fly and alcohol to have sex with her while she was asleep.. watch the Tasha k interview with Jessica Reid. I'm so sick of these celebrities thinking they can do anything they want to black women and just get away with it because of their celebrity. Has a black woman you should be appalled and sick to your stomach that this guy is being given a platform to spew his bulshit. How about them nuggets. There's plenty more strong black men who respect black women that you can be proud of he ain't it
I had a similar moment IN therapy. I’ve seen the same therapist for about 10 years & she is exceptional. I had to rly commit to being as honest as possible & if idw talk about something yet just saying, idw get into that today. I’ve gotten SO much more from therapy the last couple years in particular & not shockingly, I’ve grown more in that time than a long time. Having gone back for my masters in licensed mental Health counseling this year it’s been interesting learning about myself through that. I can’t wait to go into the industry myself, it’s something I’ve been called to for years. I had to take the leap through the fear about going back to college. Glad I did!
repetitive situation in my life never gave me any idea of feeling worse about myself or that i wasn't good enough. there are moments that feel like my trust in the Lord is so much that he has given me something to hang on, and my time will come eventually.
Sometimes small talk isn't a bad way to ease your way into a deep conversation, you don't have to be too practical all the time. I don't mind small talk as long as it doesn't go on for ages without escalating to something more concrete.
I always wondered why people volunteer lies. No one asked anything. They just wake up and start telling lies. Why do that? It's so easy to just stay silent.....isn't it?
I laughed 😂 then I said this reminded me of a girl I worked with every Monday she did the most big things she talked about from Friday night to Sunday but the fact between Tuesday and Wednesday she was asking to borrow money 😂 just lying for nothing.So true
I think people who are not happy with the reality of their life tend to do this because them lying is a way of creating the reality that they feel is ideal. Basically they understand the power of perception and how people only perceive you based on what you show them, and they don’t want people to know how unfulfilled they are with their life so they lie 🤷🏾♀️ but I could be wrong
Uncle Charla is definitely the reason I looked into therapy for myself. He’s always willing to drop gems and help other people with his honest trials of his life all while being himself still. His transparency of who he was and who is now is dope, thanks for always being you unc!
So much to learn and to keep up my habit development keeping good intentions in all the work l am doing. This conversation opens my prioritizing meaningful connection & letting go of societies superficial standards! Keep encouraging your audience & keep up the great work Jay
This is an amazing interview. The talk about sitting under the tree hit home. I watched my dad sit under the tree until he died. 🥺 Charlamagne is underrated. More men and women need to listen.
Bravo! This conversation was so intriguing and profound. I got so much out of it. I don't know why people sleep on Charla! He really is good for the Culture (+Beyond).
Yup. I totally relate to his interpretation of his dad's advice. My mom was anorexic and programmed me to tie my self worth to my weight. I'm 60 now and still battling this in therapy! She. Was. Wrong!!
EVERYTHING THIS MAN IS SAYING IT IS SO WISE! HE SHOULD BE COME A THERAPIST HIMSELF TO HELP OTHERS. in spite of his sad childhood he is a great example to the world. Yes! live your life with a purpose.
The knowledge on this channel is so useful, it allows the viewers to really open their mind and truly understand the things needed in life .. to my guy Jay Shetty Thank you
Hi, Jay. I don't know if you ever heard about John Hudson, but it would be amazing if you could make something together. His story is so powerful, and we all can learn from it
It's a popularity contest. Something is okay when people you like do it but it's not when it's done by people you don't like. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 that sums up social media. People don't stand on the right side of fair and it's crazy. 🙄
Some therapists you’re just not comfortable with. I totally understand what he’s saying. I have a holistic therapist now and I feel so comfortable with her, I feel like we can talk to her about anything, and most of all she loves Jesus 🙏.
I love when people are allowed to grow and evolve. People base their opinions of grown Charlamagne off of what they knew of the younger, wildcard Charlamagne and this is clearly an evolved version. Still very much himself, just adding upgrades. Good for him.
year's ago on the breakfast club i saw his interest in psychedelics. Im glad he finally tried it ive been waiting for this lol. I love thier show i remember one episode of the donkey of the day he said "consciousness is woke" it was then i figured he knew something about enlightenment
Was excited to see Charlamagne on Jay shetty years ago even tho I wasn’t in that specific category or culture of healing/growth. I’m happy to say I’m 2-3 years invested in growth and mental health since then, so I’m happy to see Ctha God back on when I’m fully invested 📚
I would love for CTG to go back to doing long-form interviews like he did with his Pete Davidson and even Kanye back in the day and some of the interviews he does on The Breakfast Club. Pete Buttigieg, Marianne Williamson. Even some of the more controversial people. I think at his best he’s one of the best interviewers out there. Watching his Brilliant Idiot and The Breakfast Club (only sometimes now) it kind of feels like he’s at a crossroads. I think both the shows rely on clicks and it doesn’t seem like that’s who CTG is. *I know this is wishful thinking but if Jay happens to see this and it resonates I wish someone would tell CTG to stop complaining about the media and social media. He is an influential media figure and HE CAN BE THE CHANGE HE SEEKS. He talks about manifesting but then puts out so much negativity, pessimism and yes often still toxicity and division (especially in politics and race relations) on his platforms. And he engages in false equivalence in politics (calling it nuance which it isn’t) and he constantly spreads misinformation (I’m sure not intentionally) when it comes to politics. He could be doing the opposite. He could stay neutral and have more real journalists on. He could have whoever curates the “news” they present on TBC get it from newspapers instead of the same old headlines online. He could be encouraging people to get involved in politics and show how. He could tell them about legislators’ Constituent Services Offices for example. Or great important jobs in government agencies. He could talk about lobbyists (one of the roots of all our political problems) and system reform. He could highlight the hard working non-clown politicians (yes they exist and they have a very hard thankless job). He could tell people maybe this is our generation’s (I’m his age 😅) fight? To fight for sanity, truth, wisdom and facts in politics or in general again. How not to get triggered or polarized. He could inspire and inform. He could SPEAK INTO EXISTENCE (he talks about this all the time) wisdom, experience, maturity and knowledge in politics. And he could lead thoughtful discussions on race relations. What would he like to call into existence there? That would be interesting I think. But he doesn’t. Listen to his shows and it’s full of old-school gay stuff (will it ever get old?) and a lot of divisive and even toxic stuff around race, even though a lot of his best friends seem to be white. He’s always generalizing generalizing and more generalizing. At some point it stops being funny because it’s such old material. Look at the comments under his video clips. They’re some of the worst out there honestly. He instigates that. And then - on the other hand - the interview he did with Judy Blume was amazing. He’s confusing and inconsistent and I wonder if that maybe contributes to his anxiety? I feel like he can be funny, honest, call out BS (there so much) without being a contrarian for the sake of it. Without being toxic and then following up with SOLUTIONS. Sometimes it feels like that’s what he does. He can do a mix of silly and fun and serious. But honestly he’s not doing a great job of it now. He still puts out a lot of sheer negativity :( And - instead of always always complaining about media - get your influential friends together and DO something. Only talk about things you really really know about or again engage in very thoughtful and mature interviews. I feel like he’s trying to fit into an already established lane. He can forge his own and same with his podcasting friends. Instead they do the same format, same topics as everyone else and do the whole uninformed opinions thing. That is NOT okay in 2024. I could go on and on. I’m such a big fan of his but I almost can’t listen to his shows anymore. Because I’ll get infuriated over the ignorance. We just can’t handle any more of that. And then to complain about it when others do it. It’s too much. Just my thoughts for what their worth as a fan 💜
25:12 powerful part of this conversation! Analyzing others is easier and may come more naturally than analyzing ourselves. I think it’s because we don’t have a constant 360 view of our lives displayed in front of us. But for others like celebrities we see their lives displayed in front of us. It’s easier to judge and over analyze why they do the things they do.
Success has imprisoned Charlemagne’s mind and common sense particularly when it comes to matters that endanger his own people. There, I said it. Have a nice day.
Love the show❤️✌🏾😊💯 Free of Speech is beautiful. You don't have to be right or wrong. You have to live with the consequences of whatever said 💯💯 I just started watching
I really, really appreciate Charlemagne❤️🔥for being so open with his experiences and journey. Growth definitely isn't easy but well worth it. Blessings🙏🏼✌🏼
Charlemagne is the definition of slick. he and his buddies drugs and sexually assaulted a 15-year-old black girl. This isn't an alleged story he talks about it during an interview with DJ akademik . He pledged to a lesser charge to avoid jail time. And to show you how sick he is. He openly admitted to giving his wife Spanish fly and alcohol so he can have sex with her while she was asleep. Watch the Tasha k interview with Jessica Reid.
This dialogue embodies humanism. Our ancestors would be extremely proud of the evolution of conversation. Time for the next leg of the journey. 🪷🙏🏾
I'm telling you!!!!! Respect, that's what comes to mind. We need to give and ask for it. Just amazing. He's really something.
I’ve looooved to witness Charlamagne’s growth. Thanks for bringing him on the pod 🙏🏽🩷

@@SirAtticusJustice for Jessica Reid..
In my nutrition class, my teacher told us to talk to people instead of eating junk food at functions. She said, when you talk to people, ask them, "Are you happy?" I thought that was a brilliant question!
Instead of asking are you happy I ask on a scale of 1-10 how do you feel this week/month? It hits deeper cause now they gotta think about it.
This is so good 💗
But I think people are afraid to answer that question honestly.
Yeah but don't ask the question if you really don't care about the answer.

I love when people are allowed to grow and evolve. People base their opinions of grown Charlamagne off of what they knew of the younger, wildcard Charlamagne and this is clearly an evolved version. Still very much himself, just adding upgrades. Good for him.
I LOVE THE SPECIAL GUEST!!!!! He is GOD sent
One of the best interviews I’ve seen in a while. I watched it twice!
year's ago on the breakfast club i saw his interest in psychedelics. Im glad he finally tried it ive been waiting for this lol. I love thier show i remember one episode of the donkey of the day he said "consciousness is woke" it was then i figured he knew something about enlightenment
Great conversation
I've criticized charlmagne before, but I do like this interview.
Omgggg this Conversation is Soo Dope and it helped me change Soo much the way I think in Life❤ Thank you Gentlemen 😊
Was excited to see Charlamagne on Jay shetty years ago even tho I wasn’t in that specific category or culture of healing/growth. I’m happy to say I’m 2-3 years invested in growth and mental health since then, so I’m happy to see Ctha God back on when I’m fully invested 📚
I would love for CTG to go back to doing long-form interviews like he did with his Pete Davidson and even Kanye back in the day and some of the interviews he does on The Breakfast Club. Pete Buttigieg, Marianne Williamson. Even some of the more controversial people. I think at his best he’s one of the best interviewers out there. Watching his Brilliant Idiot and The Breakfast Club (only sometimes now) it kind of feels like he’s at a crossroads. I think both the shows rely on clicks and it doesn’t seem like that’s who CTG is.
*I know this is wishful thinking but if Jay happens to see this and it resonates I wish someone would tell CTG to stop complaining about the media and social media. He is an influential media figure and HE CAN BE THE CHANGE HE SEEKS. He talks about manifesting but then puts out so much negativity, pessimism and yes often still toxicity and division (especially in politics and race relations) on his platforms. And he engages in false equivalence in politics (calling it nuance which it isn’t) and he constantly spreads misinformation (I’m sure not intentionally) when it comes to politics. He could be doing the opposite. He could stay neutral and have more real journalists on. He could have whoever curates the “news” they present on TBC get it from newspapers instead of the same old headlines online. He could be encouraging people to get involved in politics and show how. He could tell them about legislators’ Constituent Services Offices for example. Or great important jobs in government agencies. He could talk about lobbyists (one of the roots of all our political problems) and system reform. He could highlight the hard working non-clown politicians (yes they exist and they have a very hard thankless job). He could tell people maybe this is our generation’s (I’m his age 😅) fight? To fight for sanity, truth, wisdom and facts in politics or in general again. How not to get triggered or polarized. He could inspire and inform. He could SPEAK INTO EXISTENCE (he talks about this all the time) wisdom, experience, maturity and knowledge in politics. And he could lead thoughtful discussions on race relations. What would he like to call into existence there? That would be interesting I think.
But he doesn’t. Listen to his shows and it’s full of old-school gay stuff (will it ever get old?) and a lot of divisive and even toxic stuff around race, even though a lot of his best friends seem to be white. He’s always generalizing generalizing and more generalizing. At some point it stops being funny because it’s such old material. Look at the comments under his video clips. They’re some of the worst out there honestly. He instigates that. And then - on the other hand - the interview he did with Judy Blume was amazing.
He’s confusing and inconsistent and I wonder if that maybe contributes to his anxiety? I feel like he can be funny, honest, call out BS (there so much) without being a contrarian for the sake of it. Without being toxic and then following up with SOLUTIONS. Sometimes it feels like that’s what he does. He can do a mix of silly and fun and serious. But honestly he’s not doing a great job of it now. He still puts out a lot of sheer negativity :(
And - instead of always always complaining about media - get your influential friends together and DO something. Only talk about things you really really know about or again engage in very thoughtful and mature interviews. I feel like he’s trying to fit into an already established lane. He can forge his own and same with his podcasting friends. Instead they do the same format, same topics as everyone else and do the whole uninformed opinions thing. That is NOT okay in 2024.
I could go on and on. I’m such a big fan of his but I almost can’t listen to his shows anymore. Because I’ll get infuriated over the ignorance. We just can’t handle any more of that. And then to complain about it when others do it. It’s too much.
Just my thoughts for what their worth as a fan 💜
Charlemagne's skin is the main beneficiary from his fame and fortune😎
Puts a whole new meaning on health is wealth ✅
The section on passing judgement resonates
25:12 powerful part of this conversation! Analyzing others is easier and may come more naturally than analyzing ourselves. I think it’s because we don’t have a constant 360 view of our lives displayed in front of us. But for others like celebrities we see their lives displayed in front of us. It’s easier to judge and over analyze why they do the things they do.
Success has imprisoned Charlemagne’s mind and common sense particularly when it comes to matters that endanger his own people. There, I said it. Have a nice day.
I'm impressed! This man has truly grown!
Loved this so much to takeaway and appreciate the chemistry between them!
wowww great convo
Charlemagne is amazing.
Such a fan of the way he thinks and he's funny.
Love the show❤️✌🏾😊💯 Free of Speech is beautiful. You don't have to be right or wrong. You have to live with the consequences of whatever said 💯💯 I just started watching
Incredible interview 💯
"Just because something is successful does not mean it's working" THIS
I really, really appreciate Charlemagne❤️🔥for being so open with his experiences and journey. Growth definitely isn't easy but well worth it. Blessings🙏🏼✌🏼
Charlemagne is the definition of growth I applaud it 🤞
Charlemagne is the definition of slick. he and his buddies drugs and sexually assaulted a 15-year-old black girl. This isn't an alleged story he talks about it during an interview with DJ akademik . He pledged to a lesser charge to avoid jail time. And to show you how sick he is. He openly admitted to giving his wife Spanish fly and alcohol so he can have sex with her while she was asleep. Watch the Tasha k interview with Jessica Reid.
Best episode in a long time . This was bang on
"you hit it on the head so crazy pause" LOL Charlemagne!
Neal Brennan was the reason why I wanted to do ayahuasca.
Great interview. I love how both these men honor their wives. Love it.
I love that Charlemagne tha God has been featured. I would have preferred a title without “prison” in it.
Don't look up... one of the few movies I've seen and wow it made me bawl like a baby... I just couldn't.
Wow. Eye opening and truthful
Love to hear Charla speak, great interview
