Dj Envy did a great job hosting this interview and ensuring all the guests blessed the mic. He is getting much better leading the interview and not asking bland questions. Great job DJ Envy.

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

@Male Sensitivity he is, and it's great to see, especially since he's so passionate about this subject

[@Zimba331]

I’m loving the DC, Bmore and Philly connection. All 3 people are doing great things

[@datmanagain2472]

Pinky cole gets some praise! We need more black women and black men lifting each other!!!🙏

[@MarissaontheMAP]

Slutty Vegan & Big Dave’s are two of my FAVORITE ATL restaurants!! (I mentioned Big Dave’s in one of my videos). Y’all don’t know how excited I was to see them on TBC. Congrats to all three of you!!

[@TrevyTheYellowistMan]

"Your brain could take you places that your mind can't even imagine" profound

[@ItsJustWalt]

I could watch and listen to Pinky talk all day. The energy she puts out when she speaks fills me up.

[@ironmandingo1]

she was entertaining to watch on the 85 south show a few months ago also

[@jonathansanders914]

I met her. Very nice lady. Good to see her making a lot of progress.

[@ItsJustWalt]

@@ironmandingo1 I could only imagine. I’m sure she could flow with the best of’em in any setting

[@1984lakersfan]

Two of ATL’s finest dropping gems 💎

[@ladybrown6536]

ATL Is Thee Hub For All City’s To Win If You From Thee A I Love Y’all City Just Haven’t Been Yet🙏🏼

[@hoa7955]

Forever proud of Pinky!!!!

[@sdw86]

My old roommate lol! So proud of her

[@Sedgrid]

You really can’t leave the ATL without visiting these two locations. Proud that my family patronized these black owned businesses at the beginning

[@SosoModels]

I wish this interview was longer! They were all so motivating and inspiring! I had a great idea for a content idea for my channel, I talked myself out of it because I don’t have all the material I need and I didn’t want to waste money. This conversation made me realize I’m looking at it all wrong. Its an investment. Got to put my money into my ideas. Thank you all for this interview!

[@damnpam4680]

This gave me so much life to step into my purpose and to know I’m 50 this year and feeding is my passion helping others where I understanding that what I wanted as a child or young adult n it was someone just to care when you fix a meal real meal that’s showing love I’m doing both soul food I eat vegan know how to make good food both ways plant base I love eating more now

[@kic.7679]

[@LAMONTWILLIAMS21]

Shout out to Derek Lewis, Pinky Cole & Derrick Hayes

[@realestatedoru]

This is dope NEW Ceo's are doing what rappers could have done the last 30 years but they had to show us that they were better than us by showing us fancy cars, jewelry and the women they have sex with. Now, some rappers did bless the community and world heavy. But if this would have started 30 years ago. We would be in a better place as a community. GOOD stuff Guys..

[@NorthPhillyFlyBoy]

Philly. Baltimore. DC. > ATL. Let's go cousins! It's beautiful to see representatives from these amazing cities with beautiful black communities...

[@RobandSijay]

Educational, no drama, no shade, no gossip, or salacious headline...oh you know they not about to click on this video lol

[@lakersin556]

Everything ain't for everybody.

[@loveseeta]

Pinky been the goat for YEARS!! Have always been supporting the community in HUGE WAYS

[@lawrencelopez1981]

Been going to Daves since they were next to the Shell gas station

[@larryscott8423]

Right💪🏽

[@sfcoproductions]

Big facts

[@sanctityco9380]

We need to recognize when we earn high level positions with companies, it's not due to their pity, it's due to them acknowledging our ability and wanting to use it to their advantage. Pepsi didn't do this brotha a favor, he did them a favor deciding to help build their company. Congrats to him building his mind to be that valuable.

[@Denailacole]

I love Pinky so much 😩😘 I’m too lazy to go downtown to get Dave’s but I know his food HAS to be good. I’m rooting for all of them genuinely. So inspirational 💕

[@ivysmith2794]

Powerful and inspiring stories, wow in just 3 years her business has soared

[@blackice3395]

Doing a HBCU Tour on my motorcycle ( 89 schools so far) 😁 This warms my heart that Pepsi is doing this. ✊🏿 Great interview!!!

[@mrbrainchild7637]

89? Dam bro! Lol respect. Don't forget all the Georgia schools if you haven't done them already.

[@blackice3395]

@@mrbrainchild7637thanks for the love my guy. Was on my way to Louisiana from Texas heading to Alabama,GA during hurricane Ida! We had to evacuate, by the time I got to Georgia I was so damn tired I said hell with it. Next year Ga,AL, Mississippi valley state, LA ( 3 in New Orleans) and flying to St Thomas. 2023 MO, OK and CA then I'll be done. The experience has been unbelievable ✊🏿

[@brittdavis1]

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤

[@latyshal.2286]

Great interview Breakfast Club! 👏🏾 These type of conversations are vital to the Black community. Very informative and very much needed to continue to excel and build wealth within our community. Side note....Every since I've seen Slutty Vegan featured on a reality TV show, I've been wanting to go there and get a vegan burger and I'm not even vegan. lol That food looks so good and from what I hear in these streets, it's good, too!

[@CarshowRellStudios]

Loved the interview. Proud of you 🙏 This is making history right here and just the beginning.

[@RodNubianKing]

When she said "DEW THAT" damn that B-More accent.

[@keykeyblazeroyce1742]

Damn Derek Lewis is a true inspiration

[@pelenge49]

So inspiring! HBCU grads are doing big things!!❤️

[@darienfowler8102]

Pinky Cole makes Baltimore proud. She is so right, I’m from East Baltimore and it’s hard to make it out, but our generation refuses to pass down poverty.

[@rhondam4369]

I am so happy to see this...shout out to all of them...We need to really see more of this ✊✊✊✊ ❤❤❤❤
