Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all
don't know. Y'all have a look back to back, giving
them more like theming buck bus things and it's not good.

(00:21):
Sten to mother, I don't join Jo. You gotta use

(00:59):
that turn out him. You gotta turn to turn them out.

(01:43):
My mom got to turn out to turn the water
the water. Come come on your back. Uh huh, I
show well, but come mording everybody. You're listening to the voice,

(02:06):
come on dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey
got a radio show. Man, If if I had time
enough to tell the whole trip, the whole journey, and
y'all would be sitting up in there going okay to Steve,
are we gonna play the show this week? But man,
it's been a lot of amazing things has happened to

(02:28):
me over the years, and not all of them good.
It's been some amazingly bad things that have happened too.
But I just come on in the morning as a
reminder to everybody of the actual goodness of God, that
you know, man, that these mistakes that you're making, that

(02:50):
these setbacks that you keep having, that these falls that
keep occurring in your life that they all are leading
you somewhere. If you just don't ever give up. That's
the key. You can never ever give up because you
don't know how the trip has been laid out for you.

(03:11):
You know, if somebody had told me years ago when
I had the dream of being on TV and then
I thought about being a one of one of the
best comedians I could be. You know, when I when
I started, if somebody had told me everything that was
gonna have to happen in order for me to get there,

(03:32):
I would have changed it. I would have I would
have said, Okay, well I ain't gonna be that. How
about this? See and no one can know all of
the events of their life ahead of time. You know,
it'd be so nice, wouldn't it. You know, to prepare
for it, see it coming, be aware of the haters,

(03:54):
always knowing when the backstabbing moment is coming in your life,
always knowing when you gonna get blindsided by the enemy.
We are really great to know that, wouldn't it. Well,
that's not how it works. So since no one knows
exactly the challenges and the pitfalls and the detools that's

(04:15):
going to be set them, it's it's it's imperative that
you just don't give up because see, knowing these things,
we as human beings by nature, would choose another route.
But it ain't the route God God for you, though.
See the route God God for you. If you if

(04:36):
you're trying to do the right thing, if you're doing
the best you can, if you ain't out here just
intentionally just messing over, folks, if you're using faith and
that's the belief in things that you cannot see. If
you have something on the inside of you to keep
saying there's got to be more to life than that,
then that's that's you. You, my friend, have a great

(04:59):
chance here. And if you've ever had that feeling then
gave up on it, just get it back, just ask
for it back, Just say, hey, man, I'm getting back
to the way I used to be because there's a
change that's available in your life. But you gotta take it.
You gotta take a shot at it. Folks. There's a
chance for you to get it right, but you gotta

(05:21):
take a shot at it. Folks. There's a chance for
you to turn this whole thing around with God's help,
but you gotta take a shot at it. You see
this decision is yours. The decision to lay down and
give up, that's yours. It ain't. It just got too
hard for me. Life too much, man, Life hard and
too much for everybody. What I gotta get you to see?

(05:43):
My father used to always tell me, it says so
best lessons in life to burn your value and learn
the most is a bout lesson. I didn't quite understand
that being young, but I show got it now. Ain't
no lesson like a bout lesson, the one you pay for.
Those are the ones that hold to you, that stick
to you, that that that started turning you into who

(06:05):
you're gonna be. Those are the character builders. See, you
got to be forged to get to where you want
to go in life. So that's what the challenges and
missteps is for. That's what the failing is about. Now,
I know you don't like it. I didn't. I know
you're not comfortable. Wouldn't I wouldn't. I know you wish
it was over sooner than later. I always do. I

(06:27):
always wanted to be over sooner than later because the
later manager seems like it's so much I gotta go through.
But let me tell you something, man, if you can
if you can forge your way through it and understand
that you are forged in life. I don't know. I
was on TBN one time when I was doing one

(06:47):
of my motivational speeches, and I began to wonder about
this experience I had. It Ford Motor Company and my
last job after the auto industry started going down, my
last job was in the fountry and my job was
to stand at the end almost where the engines first

(07:10):
come out of the furnace. See, the engines are poured
into a mold. It's hot, melted down metal whatever they
call it, lava or whatever. They poured into a mole
and it goes into this furnace that's extremely hot. And
my job was after the heat was applied to the
engine block, it would come through and it would go

(07:33):
through a hardening stage. But the way it was hardening,
they would cool it. Suddenly they would flush it with water.
It was just blast water on it. But the fire
and the high temperature is what made the engine block solidified.
It's because it's gotta get real hot, get melted down first,
then it's got to get poured into a mole. Then

(07:55):
it's gotta be pressure hit with water. And all of this,
and then it could and it's real hot. Now it's
still hot even though the water been shutter. But when
it comes out the end of the side, there's a
lot of flashing in it. And flashing is a metal
from that ton dripped through the caster molding on it,
just like flecks of extra pieces of metal. My job

(08:17):
was to hit this engine block in the front, which
is huge, heavy rubber mallet, knock all the flashing off
the front, and when it came around back to bam,
hit it real hard again on the backside. And that
became the core of what the car is. A car

(08:38):
without a great engine is nothing. It's just a pretty
looking vehicle over there. But if it can't do what
it was made to do because the engine block then cracked.
So you can have a car look real good, but
if it freezes an engine block crack your car, you
can it's over man. You gotta get a new block.
The block is the core. But in order for you
for the car to do what it's got to do,

(09:00):
it's got to have a strong engine in it. In
order for the engine to be strong, it's got to
be forged and steel come through, fire get poured in
a mole, cooled off, heated, knocked around, beat on the
front end, beat on the back end. In order for
it to be what it's gonna be. The maul of
the story, folks, is you got to get forged in

(09:20):
fire to be what you gonna be. You got to
get beat up, you got to get pressure washed, you
got to have heat on you, you you gotta get melted down,
you gotta get poured into a mole. That's how you
become who you are. So the tough things that you're
going through, the difficult challenges and the setbacks. I know
a brother who went to prison, man, And the whole

(09:41):
reason he ended up going to prison because he was
looking out the loot window, looking out in the yard
at him working out. And then the next thing, you know, man,
this brother decided that he was gonna go out there
and work out. Well, guess what, he's one of the
top trainers in country. Today. You're listening to show, ladies
and gentlemen, let it be known to you that it's

You're listening to show time now for Ask the CLO. Steve,
Let's go. This one is from Temika and New Orleans.

(13:52):
Temka says, I'm turning fifty soon and I wanted to
go to a new beach in Mexico with my husband.
He isn't ready to fly out of the country yet,
so he suggested getting an airbnb with a pool so
we can go skinny dipping with some of my girlfriends.
He went so far, Steve as to name the friend

(14:15):
that I should invite. I instantly got jealous and started
an argument. He swore he was only joking because he
thinks the new beach idea is silly? Was he joking? Yeah?
But if you have said yeah, though, he probably would
have went yeah. He was joking, Oh girl, anybody to

(14:38):
do that? But if you said yeah, he'd have been
in there with just a little bitty pair of drawls on.
He gonna take you up on it. Yeah, getting ready?
But which girlfriends? Though Steve Oh was he'd been looking
at Oh named him. Oh, you gotta believe they got something.

(15:01):
They got some some things he've been wanting to see. Yeah,
he worried about Cob, but he want to see right
her girlfriend. Now, I'm gonna tell you something because I've
been to a new beach before and uh you have
really yeah, and uh it was either it wasn't was
it a gila or no? What's that over there for

(15:25):
sitting bad through his one of those has a beach.
Whereas clothing and his naked I'm gonna tell you something.
Ain't nobody on the nicket side you want to see nicked?
Get your mind to stop thinking about your fine people

(15:48):
find people really don't just take their damn clothes up. Yeah,
really don't because they know all eyes is on. But
everybody else saw needed to put their damn swimming suit
on immediately. Everybody nobody on that nicked side that should
have been nicked. That's why, all right, we're moving on

(16:13):
Kimlin and Arlington, Virginia said. My father filed for divorce
out of the blue after being married to my mother
for twenty eight years. He confided in me that they
only married my mom because she was pregnant and now
he wants to be with a woman he truly loves.
He said, he's had a girlfriend for twenty two years,
and my mom doesn't know. My poor mother is devastated

(16:34):
by the divorce, and she's blaming herself. Do I tell
her why my dad's divorcing her so she won't hear
it elsewhere? No? No, you shouldn't. Why would your father, yeah,
tell you that he's had a girlfriend for twenty two years,

(16:55):
and that's that's the stupidity. Yeah, but he thought maybe
if I tell my daughter so she'll understand why I'm
coming from. Dog ain't nobody can understand nothing. I don't
think it was right of him to share that with you,
And I really don't think you should tell You've already
said your mother's devastating. Now do you understand the equal

(17:17):
devastation it'll be if she knows your father came and
told you, yeah, and not her. Oh all right, all right?
Why don't you ask him to share it with your mother?
Peter one? Did it? Stop letting these dudes off the hook? Man?

(17:37):
You want to, you want you want to, you want
to help her and go tell her it ain't her,
and tell her it's been you the whole time, that
you ain't put your heart and soul into the marriage
because you didn't really want it. Go in there and
tell her that so she ain't got to keep beating
herself up thinking it was her, because it was him
the whole time. He could have dc to do that.

(17:58):
You're gonna get a divorce in it, all right, We're
moving on. Sorry about that, Andrea. Andrea in Flint, Michigan,
says I just met a great guy two weeks ago.
And the other night he came over to my house
and his car wouldn't start, so I told him he
could sleep on the couch. He said it was too

(18:19):
cold in my living room, and he asked to get
in bed next to me. I led him, but I
didn't plan to have sex with him, but it happened.
The next morning, his car started right up, and he said,
he said, my man, He said it does that often.
He gave me a long kiss, and that was the

(18:40):
last time I saw him. He's not texting me as
much as he used to. Was a sex bad or what? Wow? Well,

it was just a chance that it wasn't gonna start

pick up something. My partner threw a party one time
he was running out of liquor. He asked me, love,
could you go down the store and pick up a
couple because you don't only one ain't drowning? Love, because

because you know, he was the odds on favorite before
going into the Oscars, and then you know, they said
he was snubbed and his family was upset. But I'm
glad his brothers is clearing that misconception. Up, you know,
and put it to rest. Yeah, Chadwicks seemed like a
good brother, a nice brother. He would be happy, like

(30:55):
he said for Sir Anthony Hopkins, who won for the
Podman was the real deal everybody, and what he gave
us in Black Panther Man was the highest grossing movie

(31:16):
in the history, with that many of us in it
starring leading everything art beautiful movie. The whole movement of
going to see the movie. Yes, brother, they was, they

(31:38):
were doing it. What he did with that movie and
all the players in it just one of the great
cultural events of our time. I've never seen anything like
that at a movie ever ever. And what it did
for little little black boys, you know, yes, yeah, that

(32:02):
superhero looks like you. Yes. Yeah, Let's hire somebody who
just took it into turn it into fat panther. We
can Jay and my grandson he got a black panther costume.
H huh. He won't take it all. I mean, that's

(32:24):
what it did. That is filthy five year old boy.
Oh we'd have washed it, but you know, five year
old dirt different. He gives the stuff. You don't know
where this came from. What is all this all on here?
Because he called up the car looking at himself. So

(32:49):
the little black panther outfit you healthy? Wow, But yeah,
that meant something, you know, and then something for the culture.
For the culture really really did black excellence. Yes, ma'am,
Michael B. Jordan, it's Killmonger all right, Steve, Time to

(33:09):
move on. Time for today's headlines, ladies and gentlemen, this
and trip okay, thank you everybody. Well, the US census
figures came out yesterday. Our official population, according to the
twenty twenty census, is pegged at three hundred and thirty
one million, four hundred and forty nine thousand, two hundred
and eighty one and represents a population growth of about
seven point four percent sence twenty ten. But this marks

(33:31):
the second slowest rate of US population growth in history.
Here's the bottom line. Six states are going to gain
more seats in the House of Representatives, which in turn
means more electoral College votes. Write this down. Texas is
the winner, gaining two more House seats. There'll be one
more seat each for Colorado, Florida, Montana, North Carolina, and Oregon.
And seven states are going to each lose a seat,

(33:54):
and they are Illinois, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia,
and California, which will be losing a congressional seat, by
the way, for its first time in its history as
a state. By the way, if New York had logged in,
for instance, just eighty nine more people, it would have
kept that congressional seat and received another one so that
last he goes to Minnesota. There may also be some

(34:15):
lawsuits in independent order of the numbers of being conducted.
But again, eighty nine more seats, for instance in New York.
That means that's the importance of filling out the census
that some people just fluff off and say, and I
want to Two more police agencies under investigation now that
more two unarmed black men have been shot by white
cops in questionable circumstances in Virginia. Attorney David Hayes represents

(34:36):
the family of thirty two yuld Isaiah Brown, who's currently
on a ventilator. Despite the fact that the local police
chief at the time claimed he had a survivable wound,
he was shot at least ten times. The trauma surgeons
at the local hospital in Fredericksburg have informed the family
that there were ten bullets inside Isaiah Brown's body. Two
were removed at the conclusion of during a second trauma surgery.

(35:00):
At eight bullets remain in his body. Isaiah Brown was
shot by cops while he was on the phone talking
to a nine one one dispatcher. He was shot by
a white law enforcement officer who somehow took a phone
for a weapon. Meanwhile, in a separate case in North Carolina,
Elizabeth City police chiefs preparing to release the bodycam footage
of the fatal shooting of a man named Andrew Brown,
no relation to Isaiah. The forty two year old was

(35:22):
shot by cops attempting to serve warrants concerning alleged felony
drug possession. Seven officers have been placed on administrative policy.
They're also looking into Louisville in the wake of Brianna
the death of Brianna Taylor to see what's going on
over there as well. Finally, though it still looks like
the pandemic has greatly reduced award show audiences. Yeah For instance,

(35:42):
Nielsen says it's preliminary numbers on Sunday's Oscars shows the
event and drew slightly below ten million viewers at less
than half of what it to the last year's Academy Awards,
which also had the smallest audience on record. Golden Globe
and Grammy viewership also done. What a lot of folks
at home, you know, looking at movies and stuff. Now
back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to show,

(36:04):
all right, So, Steve, we kind of touched on this
earlier talking about your trip to Africa and everything. So
let's get back into it. If you're you know, if
you want to just talk about Africa and the beauty
of it all. And you said you want all of
us and meaning everyone within you know the sound of
your voice to um to take a trip to the
mother law, especially African Americans. Yeah, I think it's important

(36:30):
to go and see where we're from. I just think
it's it's critically important. And I was talking to the
audience today and we had an interesting conversation some on
Steve Man Why why Yeah, yeah, family few and said, Steve,
why you want to come over here? We're trying to
get over there. I said, careful, you know, going over there,

(36:52):
and it ain't everything you thinking he is. Now, I said,
slow down, I said, and here's an advantage you have
over here? Do you know that Every African that I
talked to, they know their grandfather. They know where their
grandfather is, right, they know something about their great grandfather
and their great great grandfather. They know something about it.

(37:15):
They go all the way back to he was in
this tribe or that tribe, and my great great grandfather
was a warrior here now. And then I told him,
I said, that's the difference. I say, you know where
your grandfather's grandfather was. We don't. We don't, I said,

(37:36):
because there's a disconnect with us because of slavery. Many
of us can only go so far back to our
lineage on ancestry or any other dot com because they
can only trace it back to where they got records,
I said, said, a lot of African Americans that just
have lost I'm lost past my grandfather, I'm lost past

(38:01):
my father's father. My father's father nothing because he was
born into slave, into slavery. See, my father was born
in nineteen fourteen. His father had him at forty just
like they had me at forty two. My father's father

(38:23):
was born into slavery. Nothing. So your grandfather, my grandfather
was a slave. So people people don't understand that sometimes
the heat that I have about it all. And so
when I see them talking about they're gonna make America

(38:45):
great again, when you talking about well, you know, Representative
I mean Senator Lindsey Graham said there's no systemic racism
in America. It's because we still have him because he
and he don't know it, and he qualified it. Because
we had Obama for president and Kamala Harris for vice president.

(39:08):
Then we still had a KKK, we still had a Skinheads,
and we still got the Proud Boys. So what you're
talking about exactly. All right, coming up with thirty four
minutes after the hour, we'll have more of the Steve
Harvey Morning Show. Right after this. You're listening to the
Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, guys, here we go again.

(39:31):
What's going on? Civil rights Attorney Ben Crump, Bacari Sellers,
and Harry Daniels are all representing the family of Andrew
Brown Junior. Andrew Brown Junior Steve is a forty two
was a forty two year old man Black man that
was shot and killed during the execution of a search warrant.
Andrew Brown Junior was fatally shot by cops in Elizabeth City,

(39:54):
North Carolina, where witnesses say he was driving away when
deputies opened to fire on him. Now, after the shooting,
seven deputies were placed on administrative leave and three resigned.
According to the death certificate, Andrew Brown Junior died from
a gunshot wound to the head. And I mean the

(40:16):
family is still you know, they've been now for days
trying to get the bodycam police tape and you know,
finally they got it, but they only showed him a
snippet of it. Yeah, there's twenty seconds. Yeah, twenty seconds
of that and um, you know, it's just a tragedy.
Another black man shot and he was dry, he was

(40:37):
in a car driving away. They go again, Yeah, you know,
and just say, look, man, if we don't get this
George Floyd Police Act or Reform Bill passed, where we
can get some type of accountability for the actions of

(41:00):
bad police officers that are once again, there are a
lot of great police officers, men and women out there
that is trying to do the right thing. But what
we keep finding over and over it's a whole lot
of bad officers out there. Yeah, they're in the system.
Hence systemic that's where you know, what I'm saying, Come

(41:23):
on now, the bad apples that are in the police department,
they stay bad. See, police get mad when they go
into these hoods and they can't solve crimes because everybody
in the hood got a no snitch policy, right right, Well,

(41:45):
the police have the same thing, that cold blue code
of honor that they live under. They see their fellow
officer doing something wrong and they do the cover up.
Seven policemen on the crime, on the scene, and ain't
nobody got a body cam over right, I ain't seen that.

(42:06):
And the one body cam, one body cam, that's the
one to show the part they can show, right when.
It took him a long time, and in that part
of the country, in North Carolina, they have to They
don't have to just release it to the public. You
have to have a court order to do that. And
it took him forever to get that. And that's why

(42:27):
we have to as well. Vote for stuff like that,
laws like that, slick stuff that they're doing. You need
to find out what's going on, who's putting these laws
in place, and get a constant fight, you know, for us.
And it's like change, change needs to happen with policing
change immediately. Fabio Carl truthful. I'm forty two. Mm hmm,

(42:54):
you think about that. I'm forty two. Okay, you're saying
I'm saying his life is over at for I'm thinking, oh,
mister Brown's life, Yes, that could be me. Yeah. It's
really sad. Yeah, it's it's horrible. I mean, it just
and it continues to happen. It continues to happen. That's

(43:15):
the really sad part. And no one has done anything
about it. Nope, no, I can't. I can't even say
what really has to happen for this to stop, because
see I don't. But you know, it just it just

(43:36):
keeps happening to us. Yeah, this don't happen to nobody else. No,
we don't if people get stopped. I watched the White
Man on Instagram the other day, threatened to kill a
police officer, jumped into his car, stole his car, ain't
fire one shot. I saw the Instagram nother day. Listen,

(43:59):
it's just a it's a sickening thing. What continues to happen.
It's just us. It's just us. But it's not going
to change until it happens to It's the only way
it's going to change. Coming up next, we're gonna switch
gears here. Junior is here with the nephew prank phone call.

(44:19):
Right after this, you're listening to show coming up at
the top of the hour, right about four minutes after,
it's my strawberry letter for today, the subject he came

so that's not working out, But that's just it. That's
the only start of income that I have. So if
you're going don't pay rent, then I have no fault
from the income. My water bill was over two thousand

(45:46):
dollars this month. How could you even call me and
ask me a question like that? If the pandemic thing

would understand. You know, I'm a Christian, but you need
to be a Christian too and let me and know
that I can't move my move out of my house
and have no where to stay and no food to eat.
But eady. Everybody's a lot of people. It's a lot
of people are not working right now. A lot of

(46:28):
people are not working. That you need to look at
TV and try to seek some of the help that
they're given to tenners because They had it on TV
just today that landlords are going and filing reports on
Tenneth's not pan and that is the Tenneth's responsibility to
try to get some assistance in some help. But no, nobody, No,
we don't know where. We don't know where to go
to get no assistance. Night like we we cannot. We

(46:50):
cannot afford a month left alone a year. And you're
talking about this is not even half the year going,
and you're asking me to give you a year free rent?
What do you think this is? What do you think
I'm gonna live at for right now? We're not working.
We're not working right now, or nobody's working. Well, we're
not working either because the park is a work. That's

(47:11):
my only source of income. I gave everybody a year,
they would shutting my park down. There would be no life,
no water, no nothing over there. And I'm not answering
for everybody else, just your number eighteen, that's all no,
and not for everybody else. Could have the right to
ask if you ask it, and you paying the least
amount of rint that you've just written a lot the
other people are paying triple with your paying. So no,

(47:35):
I cannot okay, we get we I mean, we were getting.
We're supposed to get this stimulus, this stimulus are the
the the the the the stimulus check. We're supposed to
get there. But you know, we need to do other things.
You know, we gotta get some food and and the
TV is out too, and kind of sounds like you
also got to get someplace to say it. Kind of

(47:55):
sounds like you not only have to get that for
JAFT to find you someplace to stay. So because no,
I'm we're not gonna we're not gonna leave and we
got nowhere else to go. Okay, well you have to
leave in boy, if you get evicted to behaf We're not.

leave it. We gotta get it lawyer, then we get
a lawyer. Well, get you a lawyer, help yourself yourself,

mind sought on the eviction, that's what that lets me though.
But the answer is no, So the conversation is ended.
But we're not we're not working. We're not working right now,

one right here, right now. It could be yours. You
never know, all right, time for the strawberry little my
good friend, Thank you, junior subject he came home with bedbugs.
Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm in my late thirties and I'm
married to an older man. We dated for a short

(54:15):
period of time, and he moved in with me before
we got married four months ago. My husband is mean.
My home is in a cozy, close knit community, and
one of my neighbors recognized my husband and couldn't wait
to come give me some gossip on him. She said,
my husband was messing around with her aunt a few
months before he met me, and she thinks he's been

(54:36):
seeing her again since we got married. She described her
aunt as a slut that sleeps around and keeps a
nasty house with cats and dogs all over the place.
She said her aunt tried to sleep with her daddy,
so nobody in the family deals with her anymore. I
couldn't wait to ask my husband about the woman. He
says he knows of her, but that he's never slept

(54:59):
with her or been to her house. I was sure
to tell my neighbor that my husband never fooled around
with her aunt. My neighbor jokingly said, if my husband
ever comes home with fleas, lice or bedbugs, he is
definitely still messing with her aunt. I didn't pay her
any mind until three weeks later, when I was lying
in the bed and my cabs and feet started itching.

(55:23):
I threw back my sheet and saw tiny black dots
on the sheets, and it looked like all of them
were moving. I woke my husband up and accused him
of bringing bedbugs home. I checked his khakis and they
had a few bugs too. He said the bedbugs could
have come from anywhere. We got rid of the bugs,

(55:43):
but should I get rid of my husband too? Do
you think my messy neighbor was right about this? Please advise?
Really you want advice from us, because you already know
the deal. Your husband is sleeping with the nasty woman,
with the cats and dogs and all of that. You're
I mean, what now he's brought bedbugs home? This is

(56:06):
so disgusting. So let me ask you something. Are you
gonna just wait for him to bring something even worse
home while he's sleeping with her? Like a rash or
an infection or a disease or something, and he's lying
about it, saying he knows of her, but he never
slept with her here. Right, So it looks like your

(56:27):
neighbor was correct about everything. I mean, she's nosy and
a gossip in all of that, but it looks like
she's got her fact straight because she's the one who
told you firsthand about the bedbugs, and three weeks later
he brought them home. So I mean, you know, you
can believe what you want to think in your head,
or you can believe what's what was right before you

(56:49):
and on you bedbugs on your Oh god, all right,
So believe her, all right, that's all. She's not lying
about this, Bethugs. Come on, think about it. Yes, Steve,
I'm a little toying on this. Let it not. Really.

(57:10):
It's a lot going on. But there's so many different
conflicting statements in this letter. You're in your late thirties,
you're married to this old dude. Now, he moved in
before y'all got married four months ago. Your home is
in a cozy, close knit community, and one of my
neighbors recognized my husband and couldn't wait to give me

(57:32):
some gossip on you. If she said your husband was
messing around with her aunt a few months ago before
we met, and she thinks he's still seeing her since
we got married, how does she know this? She clearly
said that your husband was messing around with this her

(57:54):
aunt a few months before he met me, and she
thinks he's still seeing her again since we got married.
She thanks that why she described her aunt as a
slut that sleeps all over time, keep a nasty house,

(58:15):
catch dogs all over. She said her I tried to
sleep with her daddy, so nobody in her family deals
with her anymore. Okay, I couldn't wait to ask my
husband about the woman. Here's whether letter took a turn.
He said he knows of her, but he's never slept
with her or been to her house. What's the chances

(58:38):
of your husband knowing of this woman who just happens
to be a slut, who your messy neighbor says she
recognizes your hood? What's the chance of that? I mean,
it don't make no sense in this whole world we

(58:59):
live in, It doesn't make any sense. So right, what,
shill Hew, why do you say doesn't make sense? Though?
Explain that part? Why not. I'm trying to figure out.
Know what I'm saying is what doesn't make sense is
how he says to you that he knows of this woman. Right,

(59:23):
he says he knows of her, but he's never slept
with her or been to her house. Of all the
women in the world, how does your husband even know
of this woman? See, your house is in the coast, cozy,
close knit community, and one of your neighbors recognize my husband.
Your husband don't live that How did your husband just

(59:46):
out of everybody? And then when you accuse him of
this woman ask him, he says he knows of her.
Damn Doc, you'd have been better off just saying I
don't even know who you talking to me. Yeah, he lied. Well,
when you said you you know, no, you know of her?
That kind of opened the door. Dog. Well, we ain't

(01:00:12):
even got to that part. Yeah anyway, all right, hold
that thought, Steve. Okay, we'll have part two of your
response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour,
subject he came home with bed bugs. We'll get back
into it right after this. You're listening to Steve Show.

(01:00:33):
Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letters. Subject he
came home with bad bugs. Well you're not. This woman
has a messy friend. They live in a cozy knit neighborhood.
Your man that you met, who's older y'all before y'all

(01:00:56):
y'all got married four months ago he moved in. One
of your neighbors recognize him and said, your husband's messing
around with her aunt a few months before he met you,
and she thanks, he's been seeing her again since we
got married. Who is this woman? Man that just comes

(01:01:18):
damn and I think he's still seeing her. She said
her aun't tried to sleep with her daddy, so nobody
and her family sells and her honey money. That line
right there. I couldn't wait to ask my husband about
the woman. He says he knows of her, but he's
never slept with her, been to her house dog. Of

(01:01:41):
all the women in the world, how did you get
accused of this? And then you say I know of her? How?
But that's how stupid he is. He could have said,
I have no idea what you're talking. I don't know
the woman like that by you couldn't need from So
then I couldn't wait to tell my neighbor that my
husband never fooled around with her. My neighbor jokingly said, well,

(01:02:04):
if your husband never come home with fleas lights and
bad bugs, definitely still messing with her. What is in
her damn house? Who is famous for fleas, lice and
bad books? So I didn't pay any mind it to

(01:02:26):
three weeks later, I'm laying in bed, my calves and
feet started you. I threw back my sheets and saw
tiny black dots on the sheet and looked like all
of them was moving. Well, now them, it's fleas them,
it's fleas bad bugs. I've never seen woman. I heard.

(01:02:46):
They're a little bit different. I checked his khakis and
they had a few bugs too. He said, the bad books,
bad bugs could have come from anywhere. That's a true statement.
We got rid of the bugs, But should I get
rid of my husband too? Do you think my messy
neighbor was right about this? Please about see now we
got a little prom because your husbands to I know,

(01:03:11):

her house. He's lying. Uh, bro, how do you know
of a random woman that some random other woman accused you?
Why didn't you just say I don't know this woman?
But because not but now to but what they're good

(01:03:33):
to do with what you're supposed to say. That's why
you're mad, though I'm mad about the it's what you're
supposed to say this standard and stand man a dumb

(01:03:54):
ass man. I know you're gonna turn yourself in with
ignorant information. Now, dude, I think it's him possible. It's
them bugs in the pockets because you got to take
them pants off somewhere. If you laid down at the

(01:04:14):
foot of the bed, you had already said they was
down there by your uh calves and and and and
and ankles beat so they after foot of the bed.
That's where the kakis was laid. But it's a birch
of them though. They're everywhere because she's itching. How is

(01:04:37):
she in this damn house? The woman with the catch dogs,
the lights, the fleas, the ticks, the bad bugs? Wow?
How she living in this nasty house? And hook go
over there? I was. I dated a girl one time,

(01:04:59):
a long time. I had a nasty house. That date
was so short I felt she had a baby too.
I felt bad for the baby. Where can he eat
in him? Really? Nah? Man? I went, damn fine chick,

(01:05:21):
nice looking Lord have mercy. Why is all this? And
I'm sitting on the couch man after work one day.
You know I worked in Forward Motor Company. You know,
I ain't man. So I'm looking around this house going
I got on work clothes and I'm trying to get up.
I ain't got no where to see me there and
work clothes and you know how stuff be happening and

(01:05:44):
you just be looking around like, yes, it's there's something
over that movement. You can't ever be comfortable. You can't.
And she said, whoa, I just don't be having time
to clean this house up. It's so big. This is
little as house. And that's the one thing I cannot stand.

(01:06:10):
A woman who's not clean. I do not being clean. Okay,
a woman not clean. That's scary because I'm already not
the needest guy and and nasty and like messy or
junkie or two entirely different things. Yeah, I can't deal
with a junkie woman either, because, like I say, I'm

(01:06:32):

Thanks Steve, post your comments on today's Strawberry Letter. It's
Steve Harvey FM on Instagram and Facebook. Check out the
Strawberry Letter podcast. On to Mad coming up in forty
six minutes after Junior and Sports Talk right after this.

(01:06:53):
You're listening sty Morning Show. All right, guys, here we go.
Junior is here with Sports Talk Shirley. Come on. We
ain't got but ten games left in the NBA all
season long, but the talk has been about who is
gonna be the MVP. Who is the MVP of this season?

(01:07:16):
Right now? I would like to say it's gonna be
Steph Curry. Now, Joelian bid seventy six, I got it,
But Steph Curry, because look at his last ten games.
This boy putting up points forty nine, forty seven, thirty three,
forty two, fifty three, thirty eight, thirty two, forty one,

(01:07:41):
thirty seven, last ten game, he averaging forty a game.
He should get it now. You know, when we talk
about MVP on is it the team or is it
the player? It's a combination because the MVP you forgot
to become valuable to your team and assisted man wins.

(01:08:01):
You're serious, serious, But is it the record of your team?
Will you ain't helping them win? Score all the points
you want. Now. I love Steph Kerry, but if we're winning,
how valuable is these there? That's what the MVP is

(01:08:22):
and that's his problem right now. He's on an inadequate team.
But that boy is balling that is out of control.
But I can't see him giving it to him. But
I don't know. I can't think of who's on the
list though. Joel Ambid, Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, I
like him a lot, though I think Mbid is a

(01:08:43):
bad boy, don't get me wrong now. And I think
Doc Rufids got him playing the best ball he's played,
pay best ball he's played since he's been in the league. James,
he get hurt too much. They also said, you know, hey, Lebron, James,
he ought to. It's only ten games left in the
regular season, is it? When they talking about Lebron coming back?

(01:09:07):
Anthony's still still healthy. After Davis made his debut last
night playing playing against the Mavericks, he had four points.
You know he back in, but he back in though
he playing. How are you want to look at it?
I think yes they did all. You know, they need
Lebron to, they need both, so I just think it's

(01:09:30):
just hey, Steph got a case now. He averaging for
it over last ten games. I hope you get it
because I like him. I like him too. He has
a case. So we're just gonna see how this gonna go.
Everybody else is out. They hurt, everybody hurt. Well, m
all right, all right, Junior, thank you. We'll see who

(01:09:53):
it is coming up. At the top of the hour.
We'll talk about money, Steve, where the money resides? Okay,
right after this, you're listening show, all right, listen, guys,
if you gave someone a five hundred thousand dollars lotto

(01:10:14):
ticket as a gift, how much would you expect to
get back as a thing? Five? Half a million? Okay,
half a million. You gave it away to someone. Of
course you didn't know it was a half a million
dollar lottery ticket. You just gave someone. Oh, you just
gave a lottery ticket as a gift. As a gift. Yeah,
So the question would be how much would you expect

(01:10:36):
back as a thank you? So let me let me
set it up for you. This woman named Elizabeth cooker
Nam of Marlborough, Maryland, received a scratch off lottery ticket
as a belated birthday present from her brother. She was
really happy about that when the ticket won her a
five hundred thousand dollars jackpot. Elizabeth told the Virginia Lottery

(01:10:57):
officials that her brother gave of the ticket. It was
a premier cash scratch her ticket from the Virginia Lottery.
It was a late gift. It was a few days
actually after her birthday. She said she forgot about the
ticket for a few weeks until she was on the
phone with her brother and decided to scratch it off
while they were talking, and that's when she found out

(01:11:17):
it was worth five hundred thousand dollars. She said, she's
going to give her brother a birthday gift. What do
you guys think she gave him? It's probably half his
Her brother and she a woman, cause women cheat now
when it comes to stuff like that. Are cheap siblings.

(01:11:43):
Women siblings are cheap towards a brother. I think it.
I think best she gonna give him five grand, but
probably five hundred to a thousand. That's it. I don't
think she's gonna do more than that. I think five thousand.
The guilt. She said she's going to give her brother

(01:12:03):
a big birthday gift. That's what she said. So here's
my question to you guys. If you gave someone a
five hundred thousand dollars lotto ticket as a gift, how
much would you expect to get as a thank you? Well,
I wouldn't expect anything because you gave it as a
guilt as a gift. Yeah, I wouldn't expect anything. But
the person who got it, I think a decent thing

(01:12:24):
would be ten percent. Okay, yeah, but that she ain't
given her brother fifty thousand dollars. That's nice. You don't
think I give my brother fifty grand? I want the
whole hall? Do get fish set? How are you gonna
get that bad? Well, I bought the ticket. You gave

(01:12:48):
it to her as a gift as a kid. I
don't know what I did, but I bought the ticket
five hundred thousand. You want make sense? That's not that's
not gonna happen, will that? I want you call? Ain't
making no sense? I want yeah, I want you to

(01:13:13):
ask me calling. Well, if somebody gave me a ticket
and I hit for five hundred thousand and they gave
me the ticket, I'll probably give me fifty grand. Yeah.
I think that's decent. I think that's nice. I mean
it's ten percent. You gave it to me. Dog wasn't
for you, I wouldn't have got this gift. I get

(01:13:34):
five hundred thousands, I'll probably give you fifty grands. Yeah,
I think that's cool. Is one who I am? Now?
If you gave me a lot of a ticket for
five hundred thousand, I probably split it with you. Oh wow,
wows beautiful? Thirty years ago? Oh, thirty years ago, five

(01:13:57):
hundred thousand? How to change my identity? Like? No, No,
when I was thirty four, if I'd had a half
millionaire thirty four, I would have changed my identity. I'd
have left everybody I know behind in this world. You
got that from Oh, yeah, I'd have bought a ticket

(01:14:17):
to you know, swissling my black ass trying to hide
to ski and stuff. I was drinking hot cocoa on
the mountain side anonymously in another country. But yeah, I
like fifty grand that's cool. But it doesn't say what

(01:14:41):
she ended up giving her brother, No, it doesn't. She
just gave him a big birthday gift. All right. We'll
have more of today's trending stories on The Steve Harvey
Morning Show coming up at twenty minutes after right after
this You're listening show and trending Hot Girl knew every
hot girl needs to recharge sometimes. Just ask Meg the Stallion.

Do you have a problem sometimes? Man, I don't. I
don't feel like being myself sometimes. Yeah, because all of

(01:15:53):
my jobs I have to be on. So sometimes I
do want to set it down and give it a rest. Yeah,
you know. I mean you think about like today, which
was a great day for me because I'm coming off
the weekend, right, but and that's very rare for me.
But I mean I did, I mean, you know, I
gotta do I work all day, the radio show all

(01:16:15):
day on Family few, Yeah, you know, and it's long days, man,
so I don't get through till late at night. You know.
It's it's tough sometimes, but it's afforded me a lifestyle
for my family and I can get doing nothing else.
It's okay, yeah, all right, okay. We'll be back with

(01:16:37):
more of a Steve Harvey Morning Show at thirty three
minutes after right after this you're listening show. All right, guys,
here we go again. What's going on? Civil rights attorney
Ben Crump, Beccari Sellers, and Harry Daniels are all representing
the family of Andrew Brown Junior. Andrew Brown Junior Steve

(01:16:58):
Is the forty two was a forty three year old
man Black man that was shot and killed during the
execution of a search warrant. Andrew Brown Junior was fatally
shot by cops in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, where witnesses
say he was driving away when deputies opened fire on him. Now,
after the shooting, seven deputies were placed on administrative leave

(01:17:23):
and three resigned. According to the death certificate, Andrew Brown
Junior died from a gunshot wound to the head. And
I mean the family is still you know, they've been
now for days trying to get the bodycam police tape,
and you know, finally they got it, but they only
showed him a snippet of it. There's second, yeah, twenty

(01:17:46):
seconds of that, and you know it's just a tragedy.
Another black man shot and he was dry. He was
in a car driving away to go again. Yeah, you know, look, man,
if we don't get this George Floyd Police Act or
Reform Bill passed, where we can get some type of

(01:18:08):
accountability for the actions of the bad police officers are
once again, there are a lot of great police officers,
men and women out there is trying to do the
right thing. But what we keep finding over and over,
it's a whole lot of bad officers out there. Yeah,

(01:18:29):
they're in the system. Hence systemic, that's you know what
I'm saying. Come on, now, the family, listen to the
bad apples that are in the police department. They stay bad. See,
police get mad when they go into these hoods and

(01:18:49):
they can't solve crimes because everybody in the hood got
a no snitch policy. Right. Well, the police have the
same thing, that cold code of honor that they live under.
They see their fellow officer doing something wrong and they
do the cover up. Seven policemen on the crimes on

(01:19:11):
the scene, and ain't nobody got to buy the cam
on right, I ain't seen that, and that they only
released one body cam. One body cam that's the one
to show the part they can shelt right. It took
them a long time, and in that part of the country,
in North Carolina, they have to They don't have to
just release it to the public. You have to have
a court order to do that. And it took them

(01:19:34):
forever to get that. And that's why we have to
vote for stuff like that. Laws like that. You need
to find out what's going on. Who's putting these laws
in place? A constant fight, you know, for us, and
it's like change, change needs to happen with policing. Coming
up at forty nine minutes after it's our last break

(01:19:54):
of the day, and of close, we will have some
inspiring closing remarks from the one of them, Steve Harvey,
right after this. You're listening all right, here we are
our last break of the day, guys, on this Tuesday,
our last break of the day. And it's been a
good day. We're still keeping an eye on this Andrew

(01:20:18):
Brown Junior case out of North Carolina. This is horrible,
Benjamin Crump all on the news again yesterday. It's just
it's just horrible. Again. Here we go again. Yeah. So
I'm just I'm tired of it. It's exhausting. It It

(01:20:38):
really is exhausting. We never get and you know what
we need. We need more people other than black folks
to see this for what it is and start calling
it out. It's the only way we'll ever get through
to this. We need somebody else other than black people

(01:21:00):
to go, hey, you know what, man, this really ain't
right right. And thanks to all of the other races
and nationalities have been marching, you know, because there have
been a lot of them, and they have drawn attention
to it. But we need more, you know, because this
is a keeps going and going and going. It seems

(01:21:21):
that's it, surely. I mean, ever since last year when
the pandemic, like you said, Steve, when this time last year, George,
you know this, Yeah, every day we just look at
the news and just and you know, listen as an
entertainment show. Yeah, we try to bring a distraction from

(01:21:45):
a lot of stuff that's going on, you know, some levity,
some enjoyment. Laughing at Strawberry letter laughing at a poem,
just a moment to give you something, prank phone call,
you don't, just give you something else to do. And
he can't do that because every week they're killing somebody else.

(01:22:06):
The part that's the most disturbing to me is that
it only happens to black people. There are no stories
about cops pulling anybody over white. They drive off and
they kill them, kill them. They selling cigarettes, they kill them.

(01:22:27):
They talking on the phone, they kill them. They playing
their music loud, they kill them. I thought it was
a gun. It was a cell phone, and I kill them.
It's only black people, see, and the outrage has to
come from somebody else other than blacks. We have been
sick and tired of this for over four hundred years.

(01:22:51):
And then and then the counter is white lives matter too.
When saying it don't, damn man, Yeah they no you
those people don't even want us to say that. Yeah,

(01:23:15):
white lives matter too. Yeah man, nobody said it don't.
But ain't nobody shooting your life from you. Nobody's pulling
your life, overtaking it for a traffic violation, for a misunderstanding.
I thought it was a taser what man, the last

(01:23:37):
time you've done that? When the last time a black
person then walked up to a white person's though shot
him and saying I thought they was in my apartment
because we know gonna hill. Well, we can't say that right,
so I'm just gonna say it again. We need somebody

(01:23:59):
else to help us and get involved with this. And
I feel sick. Let me tell you what. It sickens
me to have to ask for that type of hill.
It sickens me because it's a damn shade that this
country is not what it says as is on paper.
That's the alarming thing, the the inalible right to the

(01:24:22):
pursuit of happiness. Okay, I'm gonna sit in my house.
I've been off work, I'm tired, and I'm gonna eat
me a bowl eyes creep. I don't watch TV. Wow,
but I'm gonna go to the door and I'm gonna die.
I was just pursuing a little moment of happiness. That's
all I was doing. I get stopped. I called my

(01:24:46):
mama to tell her I'm being pulled over. That's the
last time my mama talked to me. Oh god, what,
I'm just selling some cigarettes, some loose sick garrets in
New York. I got I probably ain't supposed to be
doing it, but I'm just selling some cigaretts. I got

(01:25:08):
to die for it for that. See what do you
want us to do? Right? How you don't understand how
sick and tie we are of this? But then we
watch repeatedly you climbed to storm the Capitol walls, soliders, nothing, nothing, nothing,

(01:25:40):
We watch you them do it. They stormed a capital building,
threatened the lives of senators and cong in there, and
guess what, everybody was a pall. They gathered themselves and
realized that was against their policy. And now all and

(01:26:03):
damn senators talking about it. Wasn't that bad? It wasn't
that bad. People die people, Yeah, that bad. I don't understand. Yeah,
that logic, that logic, What what do you mean? It
wasn't that man died? We're exhausted from being and were

(01:26:24):
exhausted from exhaustion, Yes, sir, sick and tired of being,
sick and tired, sick and tired of all of y'all
with dismiss Be patient. We're working on it. For what
what's it to work on my right to be a
human being? And then they're trying to take our voting
rights away. They did it in Georgia. They trying everything

(01:26:45):
saying it's all ain't right, man, this is America. Y'all
have a great day. Name. Sorry we ended on a
note like this, but it is what it is. We'll
see y'all a month. We're gonna wake up anywhere. Steve
