Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all
don't know y'all have a sun giving them like the
million buck things in its true good Steve to mother, stay,

(00:38):
I don't join joining me. You gotta use that turn,

(01:05):
hur you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn. You

(01:43):
have got to turn them out to turn turn the
water the water go. Come, come on your thing. Uh huh,
I show will good morning everybody, y'all listening to the VARs,

(02:06):
come on dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey
got a radio show, Man on man on man. Grateful
for it comes with a huge amount of responsibility. I
didn't really know I was gonna have to be this responsible,
you know. Um, can I share something with y'all? I
started out to Finally I had gotten on track and

(02:27):
was able to see a way to even pursue my dream.
It has been a long, a long trip that I've
been on, and I've gone through so many phases of it.
It is rewarding along the way to accomplish your dreams.
What I'm saying is this, let me let me put
it together, because I got so much running through my

(02:49):
head right now. You know, it's it's one thing to
accomplish your dream, but there's joy in the process of
achieving it. See, some people are so caught up in
the goal, the final goal, that they find no joy,
no enjoyment in the process. If you have found what

(03:15):
it is you want to do and you strike out
on that journey, please understand you are far more blessed
than the average person to know what it is you
really want to do. To find your work in life,
your purpose, to find out what direction you want to

(03:36):
go in is such a blessing. The average person, if
you sit down and talk to them, oftentimes don't have
their life on track. And it'd be some people that
you're looking at you think God are going on because
of their appearance, their swagger, or they walk like it,
they talk like it, they look like it. But if
you sit down and talk to the average person, the

(03:59):
average person man does not know what their purpose is,
has not discovered what they want to do, and have
no idea how to get there. If you are on
the other side of that, if you understand your purpose,
if you have an idea of what you want to be,
and you are on your way there, you are truly blessed.

(04:22):
And in that blessing. You must recognize it as a blessing.
You must recognize the fact that you are on the
right side, and that there should be a sense of
accomplishment and a feeling of pride in you that you
are on track to accomplish your goal. See what used

(04:42):
to happen was sometimes I used to keep my nose
so on the grindstone that I wouldn't even look up
and realize. Man, hey, man, I know you're trying to
get here, but steve hold on, man, can't you see
what you've done so far? Can't you find just some
joy in the process. See, a lot of us lose

(05:03):
the joy of the blessings God has given us because
we're looking at the end. Tomot, I ain't there yet.
You on your way. I'm gonna give you an example.
I had a friend who told me that they wanted
to be a million now, and they asked me some
questions and I told him, so they started the process,
and I am telling you, this dude works extremely hard.

(05:29):
So about a year later we were talking. He had
found this business, he had set his goal, and he
was working towards it. Then about two years later I
ran up into him again. We were talking about it
and everything. It's a man really really appreciate the advice.
He said, Man, but this is all jacked up, man,

(05:52):
because I still ain't made that million I was talking about.
I said, well, hey, man, just just keep at it.
It's coming. He's man, keep at it. Man. You know
how long I've been doing this? Been two years now.
And I didn't say that to him, but I said
to myself, yeah, two years. He said, Man, I've been
grinding so long. Man, it's just it ain't having it
from me. I said, wait a minute, man, hold on,

(06:15):
hold on. I said, about how much you're making right
now a year? Man, about two hundred and fifty thousand.
I quit breathing. I said, well, my man, two years
ago you didn't have a clue. Two years later, you're
making a quarter of a million dollars. I said, man,

(06:37):
do you understand how blessed you are? I said, man,
your family was about to get put out two years ago.
You don't bought a house? Yeah, man, but this ain't
the house. I really won't. Ohoa Pardner, WHOA, I got that.
I got that. The house you really won't make Mike
call five eight million. I don't know, but Man, y'all

(06:59):
gotta hig you're making the payment, you drive it. You
ain't out no more. I said, holder, Man, you got
to stop. I said, you got to stop. I said, man,
because right now, man, you you coming across. That's real
ungrateful to me. And so he said, man, why are
you tripping like that? Man? Man, you act like don't
nobody want to have nothing but you? I said, whoa man?
Where you going with this conversation? I said, Oh, I
didn't come to you. I just came to you and

(07:20):
ask you how you doing. And I'm trying to point
out to you that the journey that you started on,
that you are on your weight, and you are in
the process of accomplishing your goals, and can you not
feel some joy and some pleasure in your accomplishment. Quit
tripping on the fact that you ain't made a million yet.
You on your way. You don't went from your He thought,

(07:42):
this dude was making fifteen thousand dollars a year. You
making quarter of a million dollars in two years. May
come on, man, can't you see? Can't you see? So
he said eventually a man, I kind of see what
you're saying. But that ain't about nothing to me because
I ran up into him a year and a half later.
How you're doing, man, Man, I showed wish I'd appreciate

(08:04):
it my life when I had it like that. I said,
what you mean, had it like that? Man? Just fell
on some hard times. Man, I'm right back why I was.
And then we talked. I said, hey, man, don't worry
about it. I said, Once you know how to accomplish something,
I said, you just reapply the same principles and start
on over again. Man, you know how hard it is
to be to start over. Okay, my man, Hold up, partner,

(08:25):
you can't do yourself like this again. First you wasn't
grateful for what you had. Now you're looking at the
fact that you might have to start over, and you
know how hard it is to start over. Maybe God said, okay,
you ain't happy with this. Okay, didn't handle it your way?
You obviously ain't happy with the way I'm bringing it
into your life. You want to handle it your weight,

(08:46):
Go ahead and handle it, because he will let you
have it your way. Can I tell you that he
will let you do it exactly the way you want
to it because He gives us all the power of choice.
So then maybe he said, Okay, you don't appreciate the
way I'm doing it. You don't like the favor I'm
showing you. You think it's take it too long. I'm
gonna let you do it your way. I'm not gonna
turn my back on you. I'm just gonna let you

(09:06):
do it your way. Just just say. Maybe he said that,
and now he right back where it was. So what
I try to get the young cat to understand was, man,
appreciate your life for what it is. Because like life,
Jenny's got that song that he got out off this album.
Still I still believe it could have been worse. And
now that it is worse, what's on your mind now, folks,

(09:31):
If you are on that side of life where you
have figured out what you want to do, you know
how you're gonna get that, and you know your purpose.
You're accomplishing what the majority of people never ever do.
So be grateful for your process. Don't tumble yourself, don't
throw yourself off to cliff. It's gonna be all right.
Success takes a measure of time. It is not easy.

(09:52):

I'm a single female and I'm dating an African man.

(17:35):
I met at a casino. We've been dating for three months,
and last week he introduced me to a beautiful young
lady that he called his other girlfriend. He said it's
customary for him to have more than one woman, but
nothing will change between us, he said, as other women
are for his entertainment and pleasure only, and I don't

(17:56):
have to be sexual with them. This guy is telling
me up front that he's a cheater. I think this
could be intriguing if he's really an African. Do you
think he's an African or just yea, Yeah, I think
he's an African. Yeah. I think he's a king too,
and I think I think yeah, yeah, I think he's

(18:18):
very rich. And the reason he was in the casino
was because he owned it. Yeah, if you know. And yeah,
I think all of it about him is true and
it is can be very intriguing and you can go
on over there and be a part of him. Now,
all Africans are not that way. You need to understand

(18:39):
the majority of them are not that way at all.
But you need to understand that he hadn't told you
and you know them THEMB behind Tomow this is other girlfriend. Okay,
so he ain't. He's not a cheat. He telling you
what he do. Right. Once again, if somebody tells you

(19:03):
the truth and you don't believe them, then that ain't
they fault. I'm just gonna say denial. Yeah, yeah, it's
a red flag. It is a red flag. And what
did George Leon Tolder tell me? Her grandmama told her
women should stop collecting red flags. Yeah, because yeah, that's

(19:30):
not what they're for thee they're warnings, you know, to
tell you. You know, I supposed to get him in
have all in Closet's no way I collection. He told
me this, this other woman, but I didn't know what
these many. Yeah, come on, now, please be smart about this. Yeah,

(19:51):
so go get intrigued. But he told you, Yeah, it's
gonna be real exciting. Go get intrigued. I can't tell
you how much trouble I hadn't been in messing around
with intrigued. Yeah, I hadn't been intrigued to the point
where I didn't got intriched in, tricked, entice, and embezzled.

(20:16):
It all comes from all that in what she called it,
enchanting in tregue, in trigue and chanting, chanting about that. Yeah,

there and king two people. Get out of here. He
don't speak up against white supremacy. He told a proud
boys whole type. Yea man, get out of here. I
don't know what else. Yeah, he he ain't got to
show me nothing else. Yeah. Oh but Steve, this is
a good news. Before we get out of here, your

(32:41):
favorite player, Houston Rockets star Russell rust Westbrook, left an
eight thousand dollars tip for the NBA Bubble hotel cleaning workers.
I thought that was very generous. Yeah cool, that's very generous.
Yeah all right, now time for headlines. Let's go, ladies

(33:01):
and gentlemen. Miss Anne trip. Thank you very much, everybody.
This is a trip with the news. Well. During the
first day of her Senate confirmation hearings yesterday and her
opening statement, Judge Amy Coney Barrett promised to apply the
law as written if she's seated on the Supreme Courts.
You know, she's only forty eight years old. Because of that,
Amy Coney Barrett could be on the High Court for
a generation, and Democrats are afraid that the seemingly ultra

(33:25):
conservative judge could decidedly shift the Supreme Court's balance on
issues like abortion and gun rights, and of course, healthcare.
GOP leaders say they expect to see a final approval
vote on Judge Coney Bryant shortly before election day. President
Trump's doctor has announced that he's not contagious, and in
a memorandum, doctor Sean Connelly says Trump has now tested

(33:45):
negative for the virus for the two consecutive days. The
President made his first post COVID campaign appearance early yesterday
evening in Sanford, Florida. Sanford, Florida, the town where a
man named George Zimmerman murdered an innocent, unarmed teenager named
Avon Martin and was acquitted Sanford, Florida, where the Black
Lives Matter movement was born. Lay this week, Trump scheduled

(34:06):
to make stops in Pennsylvania, Iowa, North Carolina, and Wisconsin.
By the way, the President voted part of his stump
speech yesterday to Puerto Rico, saying that he's just about
the best thing that ever happened to the island and
that quote, you better vote for me Puerto Rico. Problem is,
Puerto Ricans can't vote for Trump even if they want to.
They're a comonwealth, not a state Democrat. Joe Biden meanwhile

(34:28):
in Ohio yesterday saying the President continues to not take
the coronavirus seriously. Two and fifteen thousand dead because of COVID.
Experts say we're likeing to lose another two hundred thousand
people for the next few months unless we take some
serious action. And he doesn't know what he's doing. Joe
Biden's going to be in Florida today. By the way,
up the President did say he was felt healthy enough

(34:51):
to jump into the crowd and give people a big kiss.
Voters turned out and droves yesterday in Georgia on the
first day of early voting, and that's date, there are
reportedly thousand thousands of people waiting outside polling places all
over the Peach State and for hours and hours. But
they stayed the course. They stayed out there and they
didn't go home. Some two hundred thousand homes and businesses

(35:12):
still without power in Louisiana, Texas, and Mississippi courtesy of
the hurricane Delta, which has since been downgraded to a
tropical depression. People outside Liberia are wondering what's going on
people inside that country or outrage. Liberian President George Wade
claims he enlisted the help of US experts to investigate
the recent string of deaths of government officials, all related

(35:33):
to government finance. The first death an official of a
Liberian revenue authority who died in a car crash. The
following day, two more tax agency officials were found dead
inside a park car, and then there was another official
found dead in his home. On a much much better
day and a much much better look. Finally, today is
National Face Your Fears Day. Yeah, I got a lot.

(35:55):
Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening
to Harvey Morning Show. Yesterday, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham
went forward with his rushed Supreme Court hearing plan to
replace late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in defiance of Ginsberg's
own death bed wish not to replace her until after

(36:17):
the election. Also, Graham said that black people can go
anywhere in South Carolina if they are conservative. Take a listen,
yea care about everybody. If you're a young African American
an immigrant, you can go anywhere in this state. You
just need to be conservative not liberal. Is he insane?

(36:38):
I think he is not yet. Come on, Jamie Harrison, please,
if you're in South Carolina, pleaseth Carolina. John. I mean,
you know, if you black or Latina, you could go
anywhere in this state as long as you're conservative and
not liberal. I think audacity to say that you know something. Man,

(36:58):
You can't. You can't even hide racism when it's really there,
because it just comes at it leaks out your skin.
That's what we're going through right now in this country. Absolutely,
the divisiveness. Yeah, vote for Jamie Harrison in South Carolina. Meanwhile, yesterday,
campaigning in Florida, President Trump's bragging that he's now immune

(37:20):
to the coronavirus. He's saying, He's saying he's immune to it,
although no doctor or scientists will confirm that, but he's
sang he's immune, and in a totally just awkward moment,
he offered to turn his Florida rally into a kissing
booth of sorts. Did you hear what I just said?
President Trump, our elected president, said, I'll walk in there.

(37:45):
I'll kiss everyone in that audience. I'll kiss you guys
and the beautiful women. I'll just give you a big
fat kiss because he's immune to the virus. No, nobody
want to die. He's immune. If I'm there, man, you
try to leave, don't pray, don't matter. Go cocky one time.

(38:07):
I'm gonna how to keep the water on it with
your prayer. Y'all don't want to do it though. It's
unfit to be president. I'm telling y'all kids, what in
the world human? Yeah, it's just craziness. You're talking about kissing. Yeah,
and you're talking yeah. What's up? Man? Yeah? Yeah? Or

(38:31):
eyebrow raise yeah, Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. He says he's
immune to the coronavirus. He keep it stupid though, you
gotta get Yeah, he keep it. What do you think, Steve?
I just I mean man, he's he's he's not he's
something's wrong with him. But what's really ridiculous is what's

(38:52):
wrong with the people who are listening to this, that's
following him. Yeah, all right, if we're moving on, coming
up at thirty four minutes after the hour, is the
goat debate different now? Michael Jordans versus Lebron James. The
guys will talk right after this. You're listening to show,

(39:16):
all right, come on, Junior here early with sports talk.
What's going on? Well, surely, but one thing going on
to the Los Angeles Lakers or the Cleveland Los Angeles Lakers.
One I got LA yeah you know, you know Lebron James. Yeah,
Lebron James, Anthony Davis and the Lakers now have the

(39:39):
NBA World Champs. So you know this is Lebron James
fourth one, you know, and now you know they got
the debate. Now, man, you know what is it now?
Does this change is for for Lebron James? Does this
put Lebron James closer? Or is it still no? No contest?
Who's the better player? Michael Jordan, who had a better
career Michael Jordan Lebron James. Because you know as soon
as it started right at the Championship one, it could
even enjoy it came up right away. You know, man,

(40:04):
I'm like, I'm absolutely done with it. I don't care.
I think, Man, what has happened is is that at
what I've even done myself, and I've been guilty of it,
is I've been forcing myself to compare two people that
I absolutely love and respect and that have been greatness,
sheer greatness in each one of their eras. I think

(40:29):
that Michael Jordan in his era of basketball supremely hands
down the greatest basketball phenomen to ever play the game.
In this new era of basketball, the guy that is
the dude right now that has gone to three different

(40:49):
cities and won three different rings and has gone to
the finals almost every year of his damn like ten
straight career. Ten He's been to the finals ten of
his seventeen seasons and got four ends. And yeah, he's

(41:11):
just the greatest thing on earth right now. Lebron James
is the greatest show on Earth right now. Yes, And
in terms of longevity, no one has played the game
at the level he's played at for the length of
time that he's done. So I'm done with it. I
think that Jordan is the greatest of all time in

(41:35):
his era and in this new era right here, it's
Lebron James hands. Yeah, I think that's fair. I think
that's fair. We can have more than one goat, now
we can have two goats. Can can't he be room
at the top of the you know for both of them.
It's a lot of room at the top, a lot
of goats. Man. I'm come on, he ain't like Magic

(41:58):
wasn't great, you know, like when Kareem w it wasn't
even like, you know, Patrick Ewin won a great ball player.
Michael Jordan just denied. Give a look at something. Michael
Jordan denied a lot of legends of ring though. That's
just that's just let's just be a but I'm gonna

(42:20):
tell you something. You ain't should have a ring. But
I'm gonna tell you something. Man. We we you know, man,
we've been talking around it. But two dudes, man, that
got to get mentioned. I'm telling Magic Johnson man and
one more kaream up dude Japan. Yeah, we just yeah,

(42:40):
just go ahead, Why you whisper? Why is it a
sacred man? Congratulations Lebron Man, serious he really deserves it,

(43:03):
and activism and everything. He's just such a complete and
whole not just a sports figure icon. He's such a
an all around man, you know, just great human thing.
He's such a stand up guy. And just to think
about the bubble, just to think about this season and
everything that they all went through this year. Want to

(43:24):
do it? Yeah, yeah, he didn't. He didn't want to
do it at first. Yeah. I don't like them to
call him the Bubble champs. No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no court with everybody played, they played bro everybody played. No, no, no, no.
This was a title and it was a hard title
because you had to you had to play without fans.
You played it in the ball, away from your family,

(43:45):
and it was a year long season. Get out of here.
Yeah yeah, yeah, very very draining, exhausting. Yeah. No fans
to lift you up, nobody to cheer for you. Yeah.
But when not that, this is okay? When the next
season starts next week? Yeah all right, next week? Coming
up next the Nephew with Today's praying phone call. Right

(44:08):
after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show
coming up at the top of the hour, right about
four minutes after. It's my strawberry letter for today, the
subject women seem to love a man in uniform. We'll
get to that in a minute, but right now, the

(55:26):
We got it for you. Here. It is the Strawberry Letter.
Subject Women seem to Love a Man in uniform. Dear
Stephen Shirley, I'm a twenty eight year old black man
serving in the United States Army and I'm doing quite
well for myself, and it's causing a problem with my
love life. I'm hesitant when it comes to dating because

(55:47):
I've been meeting the wrong types of women. I am
ready to settle down and start a family, but I
seem to attract female gold diggers. I've been on several
dates the past few months, and when I met each
of the women, and the first thing they ask is
what do I do in the military. What I do
in the military. I've been upfront with them and told

(56:07):
them what my rank is and what my job is,
and they're instantly attracted to me, it seems. On one date,
we met at a lounge and a hookah bar, and
the girl asked me to buy her a whole bottle
of Hennessey so we could ball out in the club.
Do you know how much a bottle of Hennessey costs
in a club? I got her a drink, we left,

(56:27):
and I will never call her again. I went out
to lunch with another girl and she started talking about
how much her monthly bills are and how much she
spends monthly to look that good. She told me if
we dated, it would be my responsibility to keep her
looking good. This was on our first date. My most
recent experience was with a girl I dated for three

(56:49):
weeks and she was eager to have sex, which scared me.
When we started to get undressed, I reached for a
condom and she told me that I did not have
to use it because she'd be straight financially if she
was to end up pregnant by a man in uniform.
I had heard that, because, yeah, I had heard that.
Because the military base is all this town has going

(57:11):
for it, all of the girls try to get a
military man so they can marry him and get the money.
I am stationed here for another two years, So is
there a way to tell if a woman is into
me for me or if she's into it for the money? Woo? Well,
it sure doesn't seem like it now does It sure

(57:32):
doesn't seem like it. And I gotta say this first off,
thank you for your service. The one thing you can
say about these women is that they were open and
honest upfront. They didn't leave anything out for you to
guess about or to wonder about. They definitely let you
know up front what they were looking for. And I'm
sure that's discouraging if you're trying to have something real

(57:53):
and meaningful with the person. But you're gonna have to
realize that that might not be the case in this
crazy town. So my advice to you is to stay focused,
don't get caught up, and always, always, if you're going
to have sex with a woman, please protect yourself because
she told you you know what was up. Okay with
trying to have a baby with you and everything. The

(58:14):
other thing is, don't give up on your dream. If
you're ready to settle down and start a family, it
just has to be with the right one. And that's
whether you're in the military in a town like this
or not. It always has to be with the right one.
You've met a few bad apples, but you know you
haven't met all of the eligible women there. And since
you say it, seems like they're instantly attracted to you

(58:35):
when you tell them your rank and what you do.
Don't be so quick to tell everything. How about that?
Do you have to wear your uniform on dates? Can't
you wear some jeans, you know, and a nice shirt.
You know you're probably really fit, wear a T shirt
or something, you know, think about it. I just say,
based on what you've already had with these women, which

(58:58):
you've already experienced, I just think it's time for you
to change your game up, you know, get out of
the uniform, and maybe you'll attract the kind of woman
that you're looking for. You know, That's what I'm thinking.
Just slow down, rethink, you know, change your game up,
like I said, and you'll attract a different type of woman.
Steve wow, I have a minute, so let me just

(59:22):
say this right here. I'm going to talk some sense
into this twenty eight year old man. When we come back,
little brother, I'm gonna put you on what's called gaining.
I understand where you're coming from. I understand your dilemma
and it's real. But you need to understand a couple

(59:44):
of things too. I think you are making you your
pickers off, if you know what I mean. I think
your picker is way off because all women are not
this way. There. It's a large number of them this way,
but all women or not. And I think your pickers off.
When we come back, I'm gonna show it to you

(01:00:04):
in the letter. All right, thank you, Steve. Coming up
your part two of your response at twenty three minutes
after the hour. The subject of my letter for today
is women seemed to love a man in uniform. We'll
get back in it after this. You're listening to all right,
Come on, Steve, you're looking good on zoom too. Let's

(01:00:27):
recap today's Strawberry letter subject women seemed to love a
man in uniform? Well, see, brother, I think that you
got a couple of things might be wrong here, and
I just want to show you a couple of things.
Women seemed to love a man in uniform. Women seemed
to love money. They don't give a damn what you

(01:00:48):
have on, you know, bro, actor, comedian, ball player. Yeah,
football uniform, basketball uniform, fireman uniform, policeman uniform, military uniform.
You're working down, give it damn if it's a sanitation uniform.

(01:01:12):
If you're making enough and you're working your fair game
to what's going on in this letter today, year old
black man serving in the United States Army, doing quite
well for myself, and it's creating a problem for you.
You don't like going out dating because you keep meeting
the wrong types of women. No, no, brother, you keep

(01:01:33):
picking the wrong types of women. I'm ready to settle
down and start a family right there. Then you gotta
start looking for a certain kind of woman. But I
seem to attract female gold diggers. I have been on
several dates, and all of them seemed to go bad
for you. One date you said you went on. You

(01:01:55):
met at a lounge and a hookah bar, and the
girl asked me to buy her whole bottle Hennessy so
we could ball out in the club. Do you know
how much a bottle of Hennessy costs. I don't know,
but listen to this though a lot. It's called bottle service.

(01:02:16):
She want them act like they you know, when they
bring a bottle to the table, you know it comes
with sparkles or whatever. You know. She ready to turn up.
But if a woman asked you to buy her a
whole bottle of Hennessy, she ain't a gold digger. She
an alcoholic. They bring champagne out in bottles with the

(01:02:40):
lighters on it. She didn't ask for a whole bottle
of damn Hennessy, brown ass liquor. That ain't gonna that's
an alcoholic. Your picker is all that's gone down the line.
You got her drink and left, and you never called again.

(01:03:02):
Then you went out to lunch with another girl. She
talked about how much her motherly bills are and how
much she spends monthly to look that good. She told me,
if we dated, it would be my responsibility keep on
looking good. This is our first date. Well you should
have told her, Well, let me tell you something. If
we started dating, let me tell you how you're gonna
end up looking. So if you think we've been to

(01:03:26):
pay for all the lashes, nail's, breast make up, foundation,
nip line, up front lace, all this hill we cut
out and all this hidden. Now you're gonna be looking
a little bit different. Let's see what your real hair
looked like. Cut back on some of this makeup. Let's

(01:03:48):
tone it down now, let's move on down the line.
Then you met this girl, and after three weeks she
was eager to have sex, which scared me. What okay?
When we started to get undressed, I reached for a condom.
She told me I ain't have to use it because

(01:04:08):
she'd be straight financially if we refused to end up
getting pregnant by man it uniform. I'd heard because the
military basis all this time got going forward. That's crazy.
Listen to me. I'm not putting the condom on just
so you don't end up pregnant. I'm putting this condom
on so when our year date, I ain't holling all

(01:04:30):
down the damn hallway, Damn the baby. We ain't got
to worry about that part. See brother, throughout the letter,
your picker is wrong. You've picked an alcoholic. You picked
a gold digger that wants to dress up and told
you you responsible, and now you want me to say,

(01:04:52):
don't put that condom on now, hopefully you left the
room that right away, he got the condom, or you
left one or the two. But brother, you gotta stop
this here. There are a lot of women out there
who are looking for the same thing you're looking for.
There are a lot of women looking for something real. Man.

(01:05:17):
You keep using the fact that you have on this uniform,
and this uniform, you are using your rank to pull women.
Let's stop playing these reindeer games. Because bro, you wear
the uniform and you use your rank to pull the women.

(01:05:40):
That's your bait. You know what's happening. In that time
I heard this all the town got going forward. You
know that's all they got going forward. That's why everybody
know what your rank is, because you won't it going
for you. So when you stop playing the games, they're
gonna stop playing the games. So come on a little brother,
I'm just being real with you, Uncle Steve, know what's

(01:06:02):
going on. Using all that to get to women of
your choice. Now you want to get a real one.
But now you still using the uniform and the paycheck
as debate. You ain't to win all that, damn well
for yourself now, thank you. Yeah, you could take that
uniform off sometimes, man. All right, yes, all right, thank you. Steve.

(01:08:55):
of it right now? You know, I just want to

I jinx it if I keep talking about it. But
that poem right there took weeks. That man, you can't
put this type of pressure on me. Tommy, you don't
even know what I'm asking. How many weeks to take?
What's about three? It took about three. But the thing

(01:09:18):
about you know, Junior, I'm not gonna do it today,
but Tommy exactly. And the thing about it, Junior is see,
I don't normally like poetry because it's too deep for me.
And I'm not that deep. I don't go that far down. Yeah,
but your poems wow, right here at the top. See
did you like my birthday? Pa? Come on? A couple

(01:09:40):
of them been all right? But he needs the book.
The book anything take weeks to write? I expect more,
all right, thank you, Junior. Coming up at the top
of the hour, we're gonna talk about bullying and trolling.
Get a little serious, uh, and we'll discuss more at

(01:10:00):
the top of the hour. Right after this, you're listening
to show. Megan Marcole and Prince Harry made another appearance
this past weekend, but this time it wasn't virtual. The
couple actually sat down for a socially distant interview on
Teenage Therapy That's a Podcast. It was in honor of
Saturday's World Mental Health Day, during which Megan opened up

(01:10:24):
about the dangers of online bullying or trolling. Megan says
that her pregnancy with baby Archie was almost unsurvivable. Take
a listen. I can speak personally to I'm told that
in twenty nineteen I was the most trolled person in
the entire world, male or female. Now eight months of that,
I wasn't even visible. I was on maternity leaver with

(01:10:45):
a baby. But what was able to just be manufactured
and churned out? It's almost unsurvivable. Wow. Wow, Megan Marcole,
the former Duchess Wow from England. Ya can you imagine? Now?
That explains why she left? But I know, yeah, bullying

(01:11:10):
and trolling social media, just being a celebrity. I just
and her, you know, I'm sure, I'm sure they did
her well. I mean, you know, we've all truth be told,
been trolled, we've all been talked about, and especially on

(01:11:31):
social media, and that's a lot of times what happens
when you're in the public eye, unfortunately. But see if
I got to ask you, since out of all of us,
i'm sure you've felt it the most, can you give
some advice on or some suggestions on how should people
deal with bullying and trolling, whether they're famous or not.
Because it's out Tommy, it is go ahead. You know

(01:11:58):
it's hard because you know you want to do something.
But the absolute best advice ever of you've gotten in
the best way I handle it is I have to.
I have to. First of all, you know, a lot
of times you're mad, you're angry, you're upset, you don't
like yeah, yeah, I mean, you're only human. But the
best way to remember is people who blog are not

(01:12:22):
power brokers, decision makers or shakers and movers. People who
are power brokers, decision makers and shakers and movers don't
read blogs. I have never been in a single meeting
and had somebody bring up that was about money or
moving in your life, and they bought up a blog.

(01:12:45):
So you have to you have to hurry up and
understand what that is. And you, as the famous person,
cannot give it any gas. Somebody taught me, when you
are famous, when they blog about you, it's a blog.
If you blog back, if they comment, it's a blog.
If you comment back, it's a press comforts. Yeah, because

(01:13:09):
you're the famous person. Yeah, they got your attention for
no reason. A man once told me it is a
common thing for the dog to bark up at the moon,
but if the moon bogs back at the dog, the
dog becomes famous earth As see, You've got to you've

(01:13:32):
got to understand, you know, you know, you know, I
mean you have to understand because it is difficult. It
is very, very difficult, and you get tired of it.
And like Carla said, being a human, you naturally you

(01:13:52):
want to comment on it. Yeah, but you got to
be careful about it. And because some people who just
sitting around ain't got nothing else to do except think
they're getting under your skin. And once they realize they are,
then they then they did they nails in. So you know,
I just I just try to keep it moving and

(01:14:13):
it's funky because a lot of nut nass people think
it's true. I had a dude came up with me
till out. So man, So how long you've been friends
with Trump? Hey? Dog? If you don't get your monkey
ass away from me, I'm not friends with damn Donald
Trump man. But Tommy experienced it too. Yeah, and they

(01:14:35):
don't even know. But if you listen to this radio show,
you know exactly why I stand, which proves you don't
really know me or a fan of mine. That's right,
that's right, all right, thank you, Steve. We'll have more
of the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming up at twenty
minutes after the hour. Right after this, you're listening to.
Doctor Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy

(01:14:58):
and Infectious These, is not happy with the Trump campaign
and a new Trump campaign advertisement that includes his comments
without my permission. Fauci said in a statement, in my
nearly five decades of public service, I have never publicly endorsed,
nor do I now endorse any political candidates. He added,

(01:15:19):
the comments attributed to me without my permission in the
GOP campaign ad were taken out of context from a
broad statement I made months ago about the efforts of
federal public health officials. The ad, titled Carefully, which was
released on Saturday, promotes Trump's response to the COVID nineteen
pandemic and has Fauci saying he can't imagine that anybody

(01:15:42):
could be doing more. However, doctor Fauci was speaking about
the entire government's response, not Trump's specifically. It's like he's
doing anything. He's desperate at this point to when the life. Yeah,
but I don't want us to get complacent because he's
behind in the polls, because he was behind to Hillary

(01:16:03):
Clinton too, Yeah, he wound up. No, So none of that.
We're gonna we're gonna go play ugly. We're gonna stand
in the line, we're gonna vote early. We're gonna do
whatever it takes. We're gonna do our due diligence everything
so we'll have no complaints. Also too, I got a
text from Mississippi Monica. We just want to remind people

(01:16:23):
don't take pictures and selfies in that voting booth that
could invalidate your vote, which you get out of your car,
take your whee. All right, we'll have more of a
Steve Rvey morning show coming up at thirty three minutes
after the hour. Right after this, you're listening to YRN show.
All right, come on, Junior here early with sports talk.

(01:16:45):
What's going on? Well, surely be one thing going on
at the Los Angeles Lakers or the Cleveland Los Angeles Lakers.
One I got LA it's yeah, you feel well. Lebron James, ohead, Yeah,
Lebron James, Anthony Davis and the Lakers now have the
NBA World champ So you know this is Lebron James

(01:17:06):
fourth one, you know, and now you know they got
the debate. Now, man, you know what is it now?
Does this change this for Lebron James? Does this put
Lebron James closer? Or is it still no contest? Who's
the better player? Michael Jordan, who had a better career
Michael Jordan, Lebron James. Because you know, as soon as
it started right up the championship one, it could even
enjoyed it came up right away. You know, man, I'm like,

(01:17:29):
I'm absolutely done with it. I am too. I don't care.
I think, man, what has happened is is that and
what I've even done myself, and I've been guilty of it.
So I've been forcing myself to compare two people that
I absolutely love and respect and that have been greatness,
sheer greatness in each one of their eras exactly, I

(01:17:53):
think that Michael Jordan in his era of basketball supremely
hands down the greatest basketball phenomen to ever play the game.
In this new era of basketball, the guy that is
the dude right now that has gone to three different

(01:18:13):
cities and won three different rings and has gone to
the finals almost every year of his Damn He's been
to the finals ten of his seventeen seasons and got
four rings. He's just the greatest thing on earth right now.

(01:18:39):
Lebron James is the greatest show on Earth right now,
And in terms of longevity, no one has played the
game at the level he's played at for the length
of time that he's done. So I'm done with it.
I think that Jordan is the greatest of all time
in his era and in this new era right here,

(01:19:00):
it's Lebron James. Hands yeah, I think that's fair. I
think that's fair. We can have more than one goat now,
can't it be room at the top of the You know,
for both of them, it's a lot of room at
the top, Junior gat Man, I'm being come on, he
ain't like magic, Like magic wasn't great, right, you know,

(01:19:22):
like when Kareem wouldn't even like you know, Patrick Ewan
won a great ball player. Michael Jordan just denied, and
give a look at Tommy Michael Jordan denied. A lot
of legends of ringdom coming up. It's our last break
of the day, last break of the day, and don't
forget if you can vote early in your state, do it,

(01:19:43):
do it, do it please. Twenty days left till November third.
Also at forty nine minutes after the hour, we'll have
some closing remarks from the one it only Steve Harvey
right after this. You're listening show, all right, Steve. Twenty
days left, twenty days left until the November third election.

(01:20:03):
We're trying to get it done now though. Man, Yeah,
let's go, oh, come on, let's go vote. I'm gonna
be so clean in both. But you know, if you
know you're gonna have to stand in line, if you're
if they're already talking about lines, take a chair, take

(01:20:23):
a snack, take some water, take things that will you
know that you can be comfortable because I heard this
one lady on the news saying she was in line
for five hours. I was like, Wow, that's dedication right there.
That is some serious dedication, she said. But I got
it done. I got it done. We stand in line, Yeah,
we're standing. Yes, Yes, we voted, YEA for the voice,

(01:20:46):
all of that. Yes, America's got talent. We're voting, we're
calling in, dancing with the stars, we're yeah, all of that.
So we can do this. What I have to do
to cast my vote, I'm getting I'm getting it. I
don't care if I have to stand in the line,
it doesn't matter. I haven't voted yet. I'm waiting to

(01:21:08):
make sure all my paperworkers right, and I'm going and
I'm going down there. You know one thing about you know,
because you're famously it don't change the process, right, You
still have to go and vote. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
our duty and obligation. Yeah done. You know. Um, we

(01:21:30):
have a task at hand that I want all of
us to start looking forward to, because if you have
no other reason, I want to prove a point to him.
I want to show him that that that how he's
viewing us, that how he doesn't respect us and how

(01:21:53):
he never mentions us, and how he's not listening to
us and showing any compassion or empathy and nothing towards us.
He just doesn't care. He doesn't care about the shootings,
the murders. He doesn't care. His main thing is that
all the police departments have endorsed him, you know, because

(01:22:16):
he's gonna hold on to the way things are and
I'm not. And that's not saying that all policemen are
behind Donald Trump. That's not what he's saying. You've got
a cup, You've got some of the heads who say
we're with you, mister President. But we all understand why
that is. We have a chance to change all of this.

(01:22:39):
All of this can be changed. We have an opportunity
to cast a vote to remove one of the worst
people that has ever occupied the White House for us
in my lifetime, this current modern day I'm talking about

(01:23:02):
in though as you want to call it, since you
want to do eras in the Lebron James era and
Michael Jordan's era, this is the worst president of them all.
This is, hands down the guy who cares the least
about the people and does not care how the people

(01:23:25):
feel about it. I mean look, he stopped the stimulus
package meeting, said, we're not doing anything until after the
election is over. What you're saying if I don't win,
I don't care what happened to y'all. But then when
they explain to him what that meant, he came back
and said, I want a bigger stimulus package than the
Republicans or the Democrats won't. But those were just words. Okay,

(01:23:49):
where that package happened. He just said that to erase
the ignorance that came out of his mouth when he
shut the meetings down and he found out that people
go on, Wow, he shut it down until he's reelected
or not, and then he changed it. It just talks, man,
He just talks, and if you listen to what he's

(01:24:10):
talking about, man, it means no good for you, Absolutely
no good for you. You have got to stop this.
I'm telling you, man. Rich people gonna be fine. I'm
listening to them talk. They are going to be fine.
But there are some of them that really do care
about what happens to the folks that's not rich, because

(01:24:33):
their livelihood and the way they roll depends very much
so on people who are not rich. But then the
super rich could care less. But here's a deception that
they do. They wrap it up in this conservative party
and they keep talking about the far left and and
the radical left, and they keep giving this bad name

(01:24:56):
to being left. You don't everybody never say that something
wrong with the conservatives or the far right, but they
give it such a negative name to be on the left.
But I got news for you. You need the left
just like you need the right. If a person wants
to be against abortion, I'm for that for you. But

(01:25:21):
if a woman wants to have the right to choice,
I'm one that for her. See, you need that balance,
You need that right and that left for it to work.
You know, you can't have it all as right people,
as as right people, right wing people. You can't do
that because there are people that ain't made for that.

(01:25:43):
And we can't have it all left because it ain't.
It's some people that ain't made that way. We have
to find compromise to make this thing work. And Donald
Trump ain't fin to compromise nothing. It's for Donald Trump
all day, all the way. And if you don't like it,
you can go somewhere, and we're gonna help him go somewhere.

(01:26:05):
On November third, We're gonna help him go home, go
to Malago, and go play golf. I'd love to see
him on the golf course, not as president of the
United States. That would be fascinating to me. Let's get
to the polls and get rid of this man that
has been in here, who cares nothing about George Floyd

(01:26:25):
Aubrey and nobody else. Brianna Taylor. He opened his mouth
say her name. He don't even know her name. For
