Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on your.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Uh huh, I said, uh huh, I show will. Good
morning everybody. You are listening to the voice. Come on
dig me now one? And on is Steve Harvey got
a radio show. I feel it's necessary to explain what
I say in the morning because somebody asked me, what
do you mean by that when you say that in
the morning. When I say, uh huh, it's in response
(00:27):
to David Hollister opening the song by saying, go ahead,
Big Daddy, go ahead, I said, uh huh, I show will.
Then I say good morning everybody, because I was raised
a rage. You're supposed to speak when you come in
the room. I'm coming in y'all's room, whether it's your bedroom,
the room in your house, your car, your office, you know,
(00:48):
wherever you're at, I come in the room, or God speaks,
I say, good morning, everybody. You are listening to the voice.
And then I got to introduce myself because as a performer,
I always felt my best when I was introduced. No,
why would you walk out on stage anybody introduced you.
You can't get a round of applause. It's just it's horrible.
(01:09):
So I say, you are listening to the voice. One
and only Steve Harvey, come on, dig me now. Now
that's old school. I got that, but that's I was
once again, dig me now is I want you to
feel what I'm about to say. That's all I'm saying.
That's not a bragging thing. You know you are listening
(01:29):
to the voice one and only Steve Harvey. Come on,
dig me now. I'm just asking you to feel what
I'm saying in the morning, because it's part of a
promise that I made to God. See a long time ago,
I told God, if he allowed me to make it,
that when I got there, I would tell everybody I
know how I did it. And I wasn't gonna shortcut
(01:51):
it or shade him on it. I said, if you
allow me to make it, if you give me the strength,
the courage, the wisdom, you gave me a gift, if
you let me apply it, don't destroy myself in the process.
Forgive me for my sins along the way. Continue to
hold and rock me when I need it. When I
(02:11):
make it, I promise you Lord, when I get there,
I will tell everybody how I made it. Well, this
started back in LA when I got on the radio
and I was making it. Okay, I was doing okay,
but I had to keep my promise to God. My
(02:31):
promise was, if you allow me to make it, I'll
tell everybody how I got there. I have to tell
you that every day, because if it was not for
that grace and mercy, I wouldn't even be here able
to fulfill my promise, because I've done enough dirt in
my life. Man to not be worthy. He could have
(02:53):
easily walked away from me a long time ago because
I had show walked away from him. See, and I
didn't walk away from him once. I walked away from
him a bunch of times. But guess what he forgave
me a bunch of times. I'm a living example of
hundreds of chances. His forgiveness and his mercy is available
(03:19):
for everybody. It's the only reason I get on this
show every day. It's the only reason I have the
blessings that's come in my way. It's the only way
that things that keep happening in my life. Man that
I have no explanation for, is because of his grace
and mercy. See, anytime something good happens in my life
(03:39):
and I can't explain it, that's usually him. He exhibits
to me. Remember, I'm a forgiving god man. Remember, so
when you fall, Steve, don't lay down there. Don't you
lay down there. Don't you let the devil fool you
that because you'd have made some mistakes that you ain't
that you can't do it because everybody gonna make him.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
There's none perfect, no, not once.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So get up, keep moving, keep pushing, step on what
you're laying there for. Your daddy didn't raise you that way. Look, man,
my father was just about manhood. I'm gonna just tell you.
My daddy never had a conversation with me about church.
He beat me for not going, but you know a
couple of times, but he.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Wasn't about that. Wasn't his message. That was my mama's job.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
My mama taught me about being saved, about loving the Lord,
about giving your life, about the teachings of Jesus Christ.
My mama was a Sunday school teacher, so I got
all of that from her. My old man ain't had
none of that for me. My old man talked to
me about one thing all day long, hard working manhood,
and well you're gonna get that if you don't get
nothing else from me. He gave that to me, So
(04:49):
I got it. See so my father, you say, excuse
my language, but you ain't gonna sit there like no
little punk up in here. You ain't what you're finna do.
You finna get up and go do what you're supposed
to do. That stop all that wine and like some
little punkin gone get the movie. That's how my father
talked to me. Now, I'm just telling you real. It
worked for me though, And before you start emailing me,
that had nothing to do with homosexuality at all. It's
(05:13):
just that was his term for a man not acting
like a man. That's all it was. It was not
a gay reference at all. I want you to understand
that before you started emailing me. So my daddy wasn't
calling that was not a sexual reference for him. My
father talked to us that's what he meant. I knew
exactly what he meant. He couldn't admit nothing if he
ain't even know nothing about that. My man clueless when
it come to that right there. So when I was
(05:36):
getting down and feeling bad about myself, my old man
he taught me this toughness. Man, he gave me this grit,
this doggedness, this go to work and work hard. That's
why today, when God does bless me with something, he
ain't got to worry about me not working hard because
that's in me. And when I get tired, I asked
(05:57):
that same God for strift to keep on so I
can do the blessings he got for me. So when
you ask me how you gonna do all this, Steve Harvey,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I ain't got to figure that out.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
All I got to do is show up with the
same amount of faith of being showing up with God
handle the rest of it. See y'all, hey man, let
me tell you something. I don't see how you do it.
I don't either, Can I get you? Hey man, newsflash,
let me hear. I don't see how you doing all that? Steve,
You doing this? You doing that? You can?
Speaker 1 (06:28):
I tell you something I don't either.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I just wake up with the faith man and trusting
that if He gonna bless me with it, he must
be gonna show me a way how to get it done.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
See, I ain't tripping on that part.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
See, once you take yourself out the how to business,
you can go on and get with it. But see
if you gonna trip yourself out with the how to.
You can't think like God can think. You can't figure
like God can figure. So now you sit up in here, God, Lord,
I want this to happen for me. Then I don't
know how I'm gonna do all that. Well, guess what
you in the wait?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Now? See you?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Now you in the way, Because see God ain't asked
you to figure.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Out how to?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
He said, ask and believe. Then he said, faith without
works is dead. That's my solution. That's the concoction that
I'm functioning on. All I got to do is accept
the blessing, keep the faith, be willing to work, and believe.
God can do anything but fail. Why would God bring
(07:28):
me this far to leave me? Why would he bring you.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
This far to leave you?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
So while I get up every morning, I have no choice.
I got to get up in here to rest. When
I'm running late, man, I try to plow through here.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Sometime I don't make it. Man, I got to do
a rerun.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
But I plow through here because man, Steve, you're gonna
run out something to say.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Nah, I'm gonna just keep thinking it. Now.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
You can't run out of that, can you? Because you
owe him that? Matter of fact? When I get through talking,
I really ain't thanked him enough. Me to the Steve

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
