Speaker 1 (00:28):
Thank you, nephew. Subject I'm being blackmailed by her Dear
Stephen Shirley. My husband is a big time cheater and
he goes to stay with his brother whenever he gets busted.
I wouldn't have sex with him again, even if he
pressure washed that thing and took antibiotics for a year.
I have a side dude to take care of my
sexual needs. He's a handsome. He's a handsome and younger

(00:52):
hood dude, but he's a teddy bear with me. I
used to do his cousin's hair before she went to jail,
and that's how I met him. His cousin is out
of jail now and she stays at his house sometimes.
I told her about my nasty husband, and she offered
to jump on my husband for me. I told her
that wouldn't be necessary. Fast forward to a month ago,

(01:13):
when my husband came to my salon, raising hell and
begging me to let him come home. He made a
big scene and I was stressed out, so I went
to my side dude's house after work to blow off
some steam. My psycho husband followed me to my side
dude's house. When I got out of my car, my
husband got out of his car. My side dude's cousin

(01:34):
came outside. She heard the commotion and told my husband
that I was there to braid her hair, so he
eventually got in his car and left. Now I have
a problem with the cousin because she thinks I'm supposed
to do her hair free indefinitely. She wants braids next
week and it takes me a full day to do them.

(01:54):
I told her I will do one freebie for her,
but that's it. My time is money. She said, it's
totally up to me, but she's expecting to get her
hair done when she needs it done for free. I'm
not afraid to tell my husband that I was cheating,
but I am afraid of this woman. My side dude said,
it's between me and his cousin. How am I supposed

(02:15):
to deal with this? Okay, So, even though you know
your husband is a big time cheater your words, you're
going to stay with him, that's what you're saying. Why,
I mean, do whatever you want, it's your life. But
you clearly want to keep your husband and you want
to keep your side dude, and you don't want your

(02:36):
husband to know what you're doing. So if that's the case,
then you got to do what she wants. And she
wants you to do her hair for free or she's
going to tell your husband. Is that simple? Your side
dude won't even help you with this cousin, he said,
that's between you and her. Doing her hair is really
a small price to pay, really, I mean, since she
already helped you when she lied to your husband for you,

(02:59):
when he followed you to your side dude's house. You
brought her into this mess in the first place when
you told her what her husband was doing and she
offered to jump on him for you. You didn't have
to tell her that that wasn't her business. But she's
in too deep now, She's down for whatever, and you've
got to take care of her. I suggest you work
out some sort of schedule, so when you have a

(03:21):
free day, let her know and tell her she can
come in on those days. You could still set some
sort of boundaries. Even though she's blackmailing you. At this point,
all she wants is her hair done for free. But remember,
this could all go away if you would decide to
end the marriage. I mean, two wrongs don't make a right.
But since you guys are both cheating and you both

(03:42):
obviously want to stay married, you might as well go
with it. I can't believe I just said that, but
this letter is crazy anyway, so it fits Steve.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
I'm being blackmailed by her, you know, after I read
this letter, this is the problem she has. There's so
many problems in front of it, But her problem is
I'm being blackmle by her. Well, here's my take on
this letter. You've heard of fairy Tales. One of my

(04:12):
favorite Anita Baker songs is fairy Tales. I love fairy Tales,
and I apologize my two favorite Anita Baker songs. Okay,
Anita Baker is probably one of my all time favorite
female artists of all time, and she happens to be

(04:32):
from my absolute favorite city to perform in Detroit. You've
heard of fairy tales, this, folks, is a hood tale.
This is a hood tale, and let's go and get it.
My husband is a big time cheater. Okay, she got

(04:52):
that out the way right off the top. And he
stayed with his brother whenever he get busted, so that
must be often. I wouldn't have sexual with him again
if he pressure washed that thing and took antibotics for
a year. So she's not having any sex with her husband.
I have a diet out of nowhere. I have a

(05:12):
side dude to take care of my sexual needs.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Here go.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
It's a lot of information in this. This first paragraph
is packed. That's why we call it a hood tell.
My husband is a big time cheater. He stays with
his brother when he gets busted. I wouldn't have sex
with him, give hi if he washed that thing and
took antibodics for a year. I have a side dude

(05:40):
to take care of my sexual needs. He's handsome and
younger hood dude. He's a hood dude, but he's a
teddy bear with me. I used to do his cousin's habit. Folks,
She went to jail, and that's how I met it.
What what the hell is going on here? I used
to do his cousin's hair before she went to jail,

(06:04):
and that's how I'm met him. This is a hoodtale.
His cousin got out of jail now and she stays
at his house sometimes. I told her about my nasty husband,
and she offered to jump on my husband from me.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Come on, come on, hood yeah, come.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
On, hood all this is going on before she lets
us know that she's being blackmail.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
I told her that wouldn't be necessary.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
Fast forward a month ago, my husband came to my salon,
raising hell and begging me to let him come home
when I come back.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
More of this illustrious hoodtale.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Part two of Steve's response to Today's Strawberry letter. The
subject is I'm being blackmailed by her. Right after this,
you're listening Morning show, all right, Steve, come on, let's
recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject is I'm being blackmailed
by her. But you called it hoodtale?

Speaker 3 (07:03):
All right, folks. You've heard of fairy tales. This is
a hood tale. This woman wrote this letter and that the
subject is I'm being blackmailed. Well, she says, my husband's
a big time cheetah and he go to stay with
his brother whenever he get busted.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
I'm assuming that's all the time.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
I wouldn't have sex with this man again if he
pressure washed that thing. It took antibodics four years, so
obviously they not having sex. So guess what her next
statement is. I got a side dude to take care
of all my sexual needs. He's a handsome and younger
hood dude, but he's a teddy bear with me. You
ready for some more hood stuff. I used to do
his cousin's heabyfolks, she went to jail, and that's how

(07:40):
I met him.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
You ready for some more hood stuff.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
His cousin is out of jail now and she stays
in his house sometime. You think the hood stuff over already.
I told her about my nasty husband. She offered to
jump on my husband for me. Who is this woman?
This woman just got out of jail, willing to go
back by jumping on your husband for you. I think

(08:04):
she got feelings for you, if you want to ask me.
That's how hood This letter is right here. I'm just saying. Anyway,
fast forward to a month ago, and my husband came
to my salon, raising hell and begging me to let
him come home because he tired of standing in his
brother's house because it ain't the same. He made a
big scene. I got stressed out. So guess what she did.

(08:29):
I went to my side dude's house after work to
blow off some steam. Well guess what happened in the
hood after that? My husband followed me to my side
dude's house.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Of co'me on, now go.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
On, let's keep it all hood up in here. This
is a hood tale, ladies and gentlemen, not a fairy tale.
Let's continue. When I got out my car, my husband
got out his car, My side dude's cousin came outside.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
It's the girl that went to jail that she used
to do her hair.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Folks, she went to jail, and she done got out
of jail and threatened to jump on her husband.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
So when he could, she go over her cousin's house.
Outwalked her.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
She heard the commotion and told my husband I was
there to braid her hair.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
So he eventually got in his car and left.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
All right, Now, cousin fixed that jail bird know how
to think. But guess what jail bird did say said, Now,
I got a problem with the cousin cause she thinks
I'm supposed to do her hair indefinitely. Well you do, ohr,
you do oh her? And she wants braids next week

(09:47):
and that takes me a full day to do them.
I told her I will do one free before her,
but that's it.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
My time is money.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Girl, you better make a hood statement, she said, It's
totally up to me, but she's expecting get her hat
done when she needs to get it done. You feel
me what I'm saying, don't. I ain't have far heard
all that you saying. But look, I just saved you

(10:18):
from this little mishap right here, because I know what
you're doing, and i'd have already offered you I can
jump on your husband, whoop his hand. Look at your
sighs on me. And I've been to jail. I ain't
got no problem going back.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
So she wants her hair done whenever she needed done
for free. Then here comes a hood statement of all.
I'm not afraid to tell my husband that I was cheating,
but I am afraid of this.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Woman, and you should be and yes you should.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
Be because hermeth who I've given her the name hermeth
because I think of the root of that name is herman.
So I think hermeth you should be afraid of because
her Metha had already been to jail and got out

(11:14):
to jail and offered to jump on your husband.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
So hermeth it's the name I've chosen for. I'm afraid
of this woman.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
You should be my side, dude said, it's between me
and my cousin. You know why he said that, because
he's scared of her too. Everybody's scared of her. He said,
that's between you and your cousin. How am I supposed
to deal with this? Well, lady seemed to me like

(11:51):
you're gonna be doing somebody half for free a lot
because you can't get no back up from your side. Dude,
you said, you ain't afraid to go in there and
tell your husband. But what they got to do with
her Metha because she's still gonna want her hair done
and she don't care what you break up with your

(12:11):
husband or not. She saw her deed of saving you
from when your husband followed you over your side pieces house.
She thank you owe her, and you do kind of
owe her something, so it looks to me like you
finna be doing her meeth The hair.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Works something out.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
A lot because everybody is scared of her, including me.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
