Breakfast Club Pod: Over One Billion Served

• iHeartMedia and The Black Effect Podcast Network celebrate The Breakfast Club podcast surpassing one billion downloads, joining a very short list of podcasts to reach this impressive milestone.

“We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who’s tuned in, supported, and helped make this milestone possible,” said DJ Envy, who co-hosts the show alongside Charlamagne Tha God and Jess Hilarious. “A billion views is more than just a number — it’s a testament to the culture, the conversations, and the community we’ve built together. Thank you for riding with The Breakfast Club!”

“A Billion Plus downloads of The Breakfast Club podcast is proof that radio continues to evolve,” said Charlamagne Tha God. “The Breakfast Club started on the radio, but we grew by meeting our audience wherever they are: not just on podcast, YouTube, and social media but in real life, having real conversations. Whether we’re talking hip hop, politics, or mental health, we’ve never been afraid to embrace the real issues that matter to the Black Community and America as a whole. Gratitude to our listeners!”

“Reaching this incredible milestone is the direct result of the unique personal connection Charlamagne, Envy and Jess have with their dedicated listeners, who know they’ll always get the realest of real when they tune in,” said Thea Mitchem, iHeartMedia EVP of Programming. “This show is a cultural force that has captivated audiences for nearly 15 years, and it’s only getting bigger and bolder.”
