At all at all, So.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Don't given them back a million bussy.

Speaker 4 (00:22):
More listening to to I don't joy? Yeah, Joy?

Speaker 2 (00:58):
You know you.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
Gotta turn.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
I got to turn about turn. You probably got to
turn mouth water the water up looking at me? Come

(01:58):
come on, you'll think that.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Uh huh, I sure will.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Good morning everybody.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
You all listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. I
thank God for it every day. I try to remember
that too, you know. I try to remember to be grateful.
I think gratitude is one of the things that helps
keep me grounded. You can go as far as you
want in life. If you don't mind who gets the credit.

(02:26):
Well that applies to God too, don't it. I mean,
you know, really, if you don't mind who gets the credit.
I'm surrounded by very competent people. I'm surrounded by a
lot of people who work hard on their jobs on
their career, who are dedicated employees and also just dedicated

(02:49):
to their families and you know, dedicated to their own
set of aspirations. I don't expect anybody to work for
me forever. I always look at my job opportunities as
stepping stones because I want everyone around me really to
aspire to be more. I mean, that's really the way
I am. I'm not any other way. I'm not trying

(03:11):
to hold you to this position. You know, tell you
there's no room for growth, any of that. But even
though I'm surrounded by these people, I'm grateful that God
placed them in my path in my life. But in
my mind, in my spirit, in everything in me, the

(03:37):
credit still belongs to God. I'm sorry, the credit still
belongs to God. See if you would, just for a moment,
stop thinking about yourself, just for a moment. I know
that's hard, but just for a moment, stop thinking about
yourself and realize that maybe you are who you are

(04:01):
because God is who he is.

Speaker 5 (04:03):
Maybe that's the case. Have you ever considered that?

Speaker 2 (04:07):
That's the strongest possibility I can give to you?

Speaker 1 (04:11):
You know, how do.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
You think you the one that made it through? How
you think you the one after all of the ignorant
decisions we have made? And oh my goodness, let's all
be honest. Ain't we made some crazy decisions? I'm talking
about man, I have made decisions so adverse to my

(04:32):
destiny and career, my promises. I've made some decisions man
knowingly you hear me knowingly do something wrong, and in
spite of all that, I'm still here standing. Okay, come
on now, really, really, all the dirt you'd bene done,

(04:52):
everybody done dirt, all the mistakes you've made, you in
the position you in today because of what? Because you
all that? Because you work harder than anybody else. Look,
I work hard, I'll be I'll tell you in a minute.
I work hard. But I don't think I'm the hardest
working person out there. I'm pretty sure somebody done work

(05:15):
way harder than I have. So okay, so you work hard? Okay, cool,
I got all that. But man, what about his grace
and his mercy? What about his favor? How many times,
man you done relied on that, even when you ain't
know you was relying on it? How many times man

(05:37):
God done shown you mercy? You ain't even deserve it?
Do you know how many things I've done wrong? I
just ain't get caught at it?

Speaker 6 (05:46):
You know.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Let me see how simple I can be here? You speed,
you jwall, You lie to police when you get pulled
over that you wasn't speeding, You go to court and
argue you wasn't speed when you was, You make U turns.
I'm just doing traffic violations. Now, let's get off traffic

(06:09):
for a second. Let's get on human violations. You talk
about people when you're not supposed to. You indulge yourself
in gossip even when you don't really have all the facts.
You pass judgment, You lust for people that don't belong
to you. You say things to people that you're not

(06:32):
supposed to say. So look, all of us, we all,
we're all guilty. Now. See I'm not saying you do
all of that, but I'm saying I'm pretty sure I
hit you somewhere in there, just somewhere in there. You
donet lied before, you know you lied recently. I mean,

(06:53):
come on, And I'm just saying so with all that
in mind, See, I'm just looking at the little things
that we do that we don't get busted for. Not
to mention the chips you stole when you was a
kid and nobody caught you.

Speaker 5 (07:04):
Well, that elevated, didn't it.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
And some of y'all just didn't stop stealing, and next
thing you know, you was in a car. Now you're
sitting somewhere you don't want to be sitting because of
a decision you made. But through his grace and mercy,
couldn't it have been worse? Though? Without his grace and mercy,
could not it have been worse. I know two dudes
that got caught in the garage one time, trying to
break in somebody's house, and the person in the house

(07:27):
they broke into just happened to have a gun and
held them in the garage, caught them and held them
to the garage to the police car. That's Grace and
Mercy right there, because they had all full right to
shoot these two people, but they didn't. They're Grace and Mercy. See,
all of us have benefited from his grace and mercy.

(07:48):
All of us have done a wrong, committed a sin,
broken the law, and somehow, through his grace and mercy,
got by, doing drugs, buying drugs, slanging drugs, doing something,
got by, jumped on somebody for no reason, got by,
you know. So see how you figure with all that
that can go on in your life? And then hold on,

(08:10):
let me throw a couple more at you. You can't
wake yourself up in the morning, mister big shot, you
don't have the ability to control the breaths that you take. Really,
mister big shot, really, let's get real basic with it now.

Speaker 5 (08:27):
You can't wake yourself up in the morning.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
That's favor, that's grace, that's mercy, that's Him allowing you
to wake up just hoping we get it right. You know,
God spared me through all the dirt I was doing
just hoping. One day, man, can you just straighten up
a little bit? When I finally straightened up? And I'm

(08:52):
gonna just say it, straightened up a little bit. See,
I ain't straightened up all the way. Say I ain't
gonna sit here and tell you that I just straightened
up a little bit. God blessing me. So the more
blessings I got start going. Man, maybe I'll try straighten
up a little bit more. So I straightened up a
little bit more. I still got a long way to go,
but I'm straighter than I was now. When people judging me,
and as they will, and they do because that ain't right,

(09:14):
but they do, and I ain't walking just the way
they walk, then here come to criticism.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
I get it all the time.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Stop wanting credit all the time and give out some
credit where credit is due, instead of having somebody.

Speaker 5 (09:26):
Patting you on your back all the time.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Why don't you tell God, tell people it was really
was God, man, that you don't really know how you
made it that really, man, you have no explanation for
your success or you have no explanation why you still
exist in today. Why don't you tell somebody it was
God today? Don't be ashamed. It's the truth, ain't it.
I mean, really, man, Let's give God some credit here.

(09:48):
Give God the credit and the glory and the honor.
And like that plaque said, you can go as far
as you want in life if you don't mind who
gets the credit.

Speaker 7 (09:56):
All right, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Ladies and gentlemen, you know what, today has arrived. You
are still here. That's a blessing, a gift from God.
I'm so grateful for it. Please tell God before you
get your day rolling too good? What all you are
grateful for? Start your day with gratitude, y'all. I'm telling
you it's a very very effective way. It kind of

(10:25):
takes you off to doulgence too. If you wake up
on the wrong side of the bed. If you go
down your gratitude this you'll find out, Hey, it ain't
that bad after all, is it?

Speaker 6 (10:33):
No?

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Because God is good, Ladies and gentlemen. Steve Harblet Morning Show,
She on the Strawberry calling for real Mississippi Monica Jr.

Speaker 5 (10:39):
And nephew legend is nephew Tommy Jr.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
What's on your mind?

Speaker 3 (10:43):
Man?

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (10:43):
Un, let's talk about this man character, man character and
what does character mean to you? And how important it
is daily no matter what level you want. Because some
people look at other people like I can't believe they
got this, so they did that, and you know they
type of character, how they keep getting blessed like this
and that?

Speaker 1 (11:00):
What does character mean for you?

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Character? For me are the values and principles that a
person represents of himself. Then that to me determines your character.
Like if you try to be an honorable person, a
righteous person, if you're trying to do the right thing,
you know, those are morals and values are determined the

(11:25):
character of the person that you are. You know, if
you see a person who's unscrupulous, always up to no good,
always talking about somebody, that to me is just a
person not of quality character so you can be You
get to determine the type of character you have because
you get to pick the principles and you get to

(11:47):
pick the morals that you live by. You know, uh
and and and the policies and theories and things that
you apply to your life. That's what determines your character,
and each person can pick whatever it is. It's just
a sad state that because of the Internet, we see
so many people choose to go the other way, and

(12:10):
it's you know, but like I always say, look, man,
I'll tell you like I've started to really examine myself
and then be more okay with who I am because
of the people who do love me. Now the people
that hate me, I'm assuming they've made that their job.

(12:31):
And I have gotten to the point of caring less
than because if you don't have my cell number, you
don't know me, so why should I care what you
think of me. The other thing you got to be
careful of is people who have opinion of you that
you take a criticism from a person that you wouldn't

(12:55):
take advice from, So you know, there are a lot
of low character people out passing out advice. You gotta
go wait a minute man hold up. So that's how
I do it, and that's how I set my parameters
for myself. Yeah, I've just decided to be a better
person above it all, you know. I'm I'm gonna try
not to respond to anybody that's throwing shade and hate

(13:18):
my way and just keep on going on about my business.

Speaker 5 (13:21):
I'm gonna try.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
That's what that's I can. But if I see you though,
I'm just trying what I'm trying, just just.

Speaker 5 (13:31):
Noting my trying that that day it might not it might.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
Be up.

Speaker 9 (13:38):
Coming up at thirty two minutes after the hour, we'll
hear from the nephew as he runs that brank back
right after this. You're listening Hardy Morning Show.

favorite songs while you're driving distract you from that truck
drifting toward your lane or that lane splitting biker creeping
up besides you. Fortunately, every Honday offers advanced safety features

Okay, I know. Listen, I need to get this as
soon as possible. Man, can I possibly pick up these
supplies like in the next couple of hours?

Speaker 11 (14:59):
Well, you know, no, they don't work. That fact kind
of a quick turnaround. We got a little bit of
a backup. But I can. I can do my bask
depends on what you need.

two in height and two hundred pounds. How much plastic
you think I would need to wrap to wrap that up?

In this is acondre. You're asking for plastic like a
roller plastics.

Speaker 6 (15:29):
Yeah, I'm talking. I need to wrap up something that's
six foot two and like two hundred and ten pounds.

Speaker 11 (15:34):
I probably would get about three yards four yards of plastic.

Speaker 6 (15:37):
Okay, okay, I need to get that. Then let me
ask you this here. If you was gonna try to
put some cement on that to hold it down, how
much seamen you think of hold that down?

Speaker 11 (15:47):
I'm more confused. You're running a roofing company.

Speaker 6 (15:49):
Right, Yeah, I'm a roofer company, but I'm doing a
little side work for some friends of mine.

Speaker 11 (15:54):
Oh okay, okay, I just got a little confused cause
you told me this is Talish and Company. No problem,
no problem, Want some man waiting. You're you're trying to
hold something down.

Speaker 6 (16:01):
I'm trying to I'm trying to hold something down. So
how many bags of cement do you think I need
to hold out something that's two hundred and twenty pounds? Wow?

Speaker 11 (16:11):
I don't know, eight.

Speaker 6 (16:12):
Bags, eight bags, eight bag.

Speaker 11 (16:14):
Eight bags, I would recommend at least.

Speaker 6 (16:15):
Okay, okay, give me eight bags the cement. Now just
something else. I want to ask you. Do you have
anything any type of cleaner, man, that can get uh,
that can get blood I mean paint off the floor.

Speaker 11 (16:25):
Yeah, we got industrial cleaners, some of all kinds of
industrial clean said. Well, when you said paint the paint or.

Speaker 6 (16:30):
Blood, uh, paint paint prank. Okay, yeah, I.

Speaker 11 (16:34):
Mean I've got industrial cleans a lot of times. And
then you have the preference.

Speaker 6 (16:37):
No, just whatever you could throw in there. I need that. Now,
let me ask you this here. Do you have anything
that can like just kill a smell? You know what
I'm saying that if you know, if you don't want
something to smell, you got anything for that? Wait?

Speaker 11 (16:48):

That's all I need you to do.

Speaker 11 (17:03):
Okay, Okay, No, I'm sorry, I wasn't asking your business
I just was a little concern.

Speaker 6 (17:08):
What are we getting? What are we cleaning up?

Speaker 11 (17:09):
And what do we I mean, I guess the are
we clean up a tile? Fold to clean up carpet?
I mean, what's the what's the cleaner for?

Speaker 6 (17:15):
What's the what?

Speaker 11 (17:16):
Where's the odor?

Speaker 6 (17:17):
Oh? Sure, all I'm asking you? Do you have something
strong enough? Like do you take ammonia? Can can keep
the smell down? What do I need to keep the
smell down?

Speaker 11 (17:25):
You're definitely gonna need ammonia. I mean, you gotta get
something to just scrub that right down, because I mean,
wherever that scent is, if it's in your if it's
in the walls, if you got fabrics in that place,
I mean whatever, wherever you got it, you probably gonna
have to have a different type of deodorized or something
for the carpet.

Speaker 6 (17:38):
Something for the walls.

Speaker 11 (17:39):
I mean, I don't I guess. I guess it's kind
of confused just to as to where the sense coming from.

Speaker 6 (17:45):

Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show.
Case you missed it. This past Friday was National Lie Day. Guys,
and we all know the consequences of lying and getting
caught can be huge. So Steve, Tommy Junior, here's some

(41:34):
suggested tips from wikiHow dot com on how to be
a good liar. Please feel free to add to this list. Okay,
First of all, Steve, it says to be a good liar,
you have to tell a believable lie. You got to
ask yourself if you would believe the lie that you're telling.
Think of questions the other person may ask.

Speaker 5 (41:57):
And all lie must believed.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
So you agreed, agreed?

Speaker 2 (42:03):
The ain't No. First of all, tell a believable lie.
All your lives must.

Speaker 7 (42:07):
Be believable, but some of yours.

Speaker 2 (42:09):
See No, all your lives have to be grounded in truth,
in truth.

Speaker 7 (42:15):
Okay, all right, you want to add Tommy or junr No.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
No, that's that's the first rule.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
You should. You should You should lie practice though you
know what I mean.

Speaker 9 (42:24):
That's what says practice saying the lit It says it's
stand in front of the mirror and practice what you're
going to say.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
So you're commit to.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
Well you don't agree, no.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
No, call your boy run it by him. You need
to hear another voice you in the mirror. You ain't
talking to nobody but yourself. You hear you think you right?
You got to run this by somebody else.

Speaker 7 (42:47):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (42:48):
Now they seem to disagree with that one, Steve. They say,
if possible, try not to involve other people.

Speaker 5 (42:55):
You don't involve them in the lie.

Speaker 7 (42:57):
Uh huh.

Speaker 5 (42:58):
But but like Tommy said, you got to practice.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
You gotta practice with your boy.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
So you're saying you need to have a dress rehearsal.

Speaker 7 (43:06):
Okay, so you can.

Speaker 2 (43:08):
On the magnitude of the line.

Speaker 7 (43:09):
Can you and Tommy do a quick dress rehearsal line.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
I'll give you an example. If you go into court,
you need you need to press court.

Speaker 9 (43:17):
Yeah, this is a place where you put your hand
on the Bible.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but your Bible.

Speaker 7 (43:26):
You don't make it that like with your partner. Don't
make it that like with your partner.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
If you tell her, skip all that and can we
back to court? But your head, that is not your Bible.

Speaker 7 (43:37):
Yeah, Bible period.

Speaker 5 (43:40):
No, that's not the Bible. That's that you don't know
who had that boy.

Speaker 7 (43:48):
You're going to jail, all right.

Speaker 9 (43:51):
And here's one It says, keep the life short, Keep
it short, don't add any extra information or anything like that.
Keep shut what you got, what you got to say
to that?

Speaker 2 (44:05):
That depends.

Speaker 10 (44:05):
I mean, you can try to keep it short, but
sometimes a lie gotta have some detail to it. So
you got to got to have a story with your line.
Your life has to have a story to it has
to have a beginning, middle, and.

Speaker 7 (44:17):
Its Yes, that's what makes it a lie.

Speaker 9 (44:20):
Yeah, you know what I like to do.

Speaker 8 (44:25):
What I have an activity? As soon as I finished
tell the line, I have something to go do. Right
when I finish line, I can't stand there that you think.
I got to get out of it.

Speaker 9 (44:34):
Also, leaving after you tell, I tell you escape, that's
I'm going.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
That's another come on.

Speaker 5 (44:41):
Lying in paragraphs.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
That's like what like see, because you when you lie,
you gotta have it's got to be based on truth.
So you got to start with some truth. Every lie
must be laced with some form of truth.

Speaker 9 (45:00):
All right, Okay, now here's one. If you stand completely
still saying that's not a good idea while you're telling
you lie, that person will know you're lying.

Speaker 7 (45:11):
You need to move around naturally. Absolutely, are you standing.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
Clean?

Speaker 5 (45:21):
My glasses. I do a whole lot of.

Speaker 7 (45:22):
Stuff when I'm lying, while you're lying.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
When you're lying, what is it? What do you do?

Speaker 5 (45:27):
I joink coffee, clean my glasses?

Speaker 2 (45:30):
You know? Text?

Speaker 7 (45:32):

Speaker 2 (45:44):
So I'm gonna look, bit, I'm gonna cry if I got.

Speaker 9 (45:47):
You, all right? The last one is cover your tracks.
Cover your tracks. Don't leave any evidence behind like social media,
don't post any thing and lie about you can't do
any of that, So cover your tracks.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
You got a good enough lie, you ain't got to

Speaker 9 (56:43):
Strawb You are so sexy. Subject Thank you No subject
I slipped up and went back for more.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
Stephen Shirley, excuse me, shey is slipped up. I slipped
up and went for seconds.

Speaker 9 (57:07):
I have asked you, sir, to change it to more.
All right, dear Stephen Shirley. I'm married to a great
man that looked good and had everything going for him
except in the bedroom. I told myself that sex wasn't everything,
and I managed to make it for three years without cheating.
Up until our wedding. I was sleeping with my daughter's

(57:29):
father because we already had history. I was comfortable with him.
Some would say too comfortable because we were not using protection.
My husband and I had sex maybe once a week,
and that was all for him because he's on the
smaller side. I was sleeping with my ex at least
three times a week, and then we had a pregnancy
scare and it scared me half to death. I was

(57:51):
not going to risk the good life over great sex.
My ex got married last year, so we'd see each
other to pick up to pick up our and drop
off our daughter.

Speaker 7 (58:02):
That all changed two days ago.

Speaker 9 (58:04):
I went to pick up my daughter and my ex
set his wife is out of town and he wanted
to show me how they painted my daughter's room. My
daughter was watching TV in the family room. That man
did not take me to our daughter's bedroom. He took
me to this huge storage area by his bedroom and
he locked the door. My husband called at the very moment,
and I told him I had something to do first

(58:26):
and i'd be home soon. I had to have sex
real quick. That's what I had to do. It was
so so, so so good. I got myself together and
my daughter and I left. All the way home, my
daughter asked why we were locked in the closet. I
tried to convince her that she was mistaken. She is
a very outspoken eight year old, so I'm sure she'll

(58:47):
ask again. What do I tell my child? And what
if she asked me in front of in front of
my husband? Wow, what a conundrum you're in. I'm sorry
you didn't ask us before you went over to your
ex's house and had sex and got locked in a
storage room with him. You were really gambling with what
you've described as your good life for sex first and

(59:11):
no protection, sex which led to a pregnancy scare. And
then your eight year old daughter asking questions as kids
do when they see things or hear things. So as
I see the problem is you. You're reckless, you're selfish.
You didn't care about your husband. What he was going
to say. What you want from him is a lifestyle
he provides for you, as you call it, the good life.

(59:33):
You said your husband is a good man, so why
would you risk it over someone who clearly only wants
you for sex.

Speaker 7 (59:39):
Now, your daughter is not mentioning it is a chance.

Speaker 9 (59:43):
That's a chance you're going to have to take, and
that might work for you since you're a gambler anyway,
or you're going to have to sit her down and
ask her not to say anything.

Speaker 7 (59:52):
Those are your choices.

Speaker 9 (59:53):
Either you take a chance on her not saying anything,
or you sit her down and ask her not to
say anything to a step down period. I hope you've
learned something from this experience and you're gonna stop doing
stupid stuff. That's all I have to say to you, Steve.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
I don't think she's learned anything, and I'm a little
bit confused by the letter. Actually, she says she's married
to a great man that looked good and had everything
going for him except in the bedroom. I told myself
sex wasn't everything, and I managed to make it for
three years without cheating. So now is she saying that

(01:00:30):
she started the cheating after she got married.

Speaker 7 (01:00:35):
Being married to her husband. Yeah, for three years she
was good for her.

Speaker 2 (01:00:40):
Because what it sounds like, she says, up until our wedding,
this is what she says, Up until our wedding, I
was sleeping with my daughter's.

Speaker 9 (01:00:50):
Father, and then they got married, and then for three
years she was all good.

Speaker 7 (01:00:56):
Then she started again.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
All up until our wedding, I was sleeping with my
daughter's father because we already had history.

Speaker 5 (01:01:03):
I was comfortable with him.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
Some would say too comfortable because we were not using protection.
My husband and I had sex maybe once a week,
and that was all for him because he's on the
smaller side. Yeah. I was sleeping with my ex three
times a week, and then we had a little pregnancy.
Scared That scared her, and I wasn't gonna risk a

(01:01:25):
good life over great sex. Then her ex got married
last year, so I only saw each other for pickup
and drop off of our daughter. That all changed two
days ago. She went over to the exit and said
his wife was out of town and he wanted to
show me how they painted my daughter's room. My daughter

(01:01:48):
was watching TV in the family room room, and that
man didn't take me to the daughter's bedroom. He took
me to a huge storage area by his bedroom. Not
where is that at it? I don't know, a huge
storage room.

Speaker 5 (01:02:03):
Down there by the bedroom? What?

Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
What they haven't had a few houses?

Speaker 6 (01:02:11):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
Lady, lady, stop trying to make this like it was
some big, huge storage area.

Speaker 7 (01:02:21):
Exactly if you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:21):
Got another huge room in your house, why ain't that
your master yeah? Or why ain't that the junior sweep?
Ain't nobody got no huge extra room in the house.
You was in a closet. Let's make this thing as
gritty and dirty as it really is. Yeah, huge storage area?

(01:02:45):
What was in the mops buckets? That's a closet, storage stage.

Speaker 7 (01:02:51):
Gowns to make I would hang on, Steve, We'll have
part two of your response coming up at twenty three
minutes after today's title is I slipped up and went
back for more? Right after this, you're listening to the
Steve Hardy Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):

Speaker 10 (01:03:32):
road doesn't get you. Hondai vehicles have won over one
twenty four.

Speaker 9 (01:03:46):
All right, come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter.
The subject I slipped up and went back for more.

Speaker 2 (01:03:52):
Yeah, yeah, you did. You got this great guy, good
at everything except in the bedroom, budd he's a great guy.
Other than that, you was trying to act like sex
wasn't that important, and you was doing all. You slept
with him up until you got married. But then after
you got married, three years went by and you was okay,

(01:04:16):
and you were sleeping with this dude three times a
week and your husband once because he's on the smaller side,
so that was it for him. And then you said,
I'm not gonna risk a good life over great sex.
Now your ex got married, so that ended that whole thing.

(01:04:37):
Until recently all you all saw each other was doing
pick up and drop off of y'all's daughter. You went
over to the house to pick up the daughter one time.
He told you that his wife was out of town
and wanted to show you how they painted.

Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
The baby bedroom. That's when he said, he took you back.

Speaker 2 (01:04:53):
To this huge storage area by his bedroom and locked
the door. That's a lie. Let's cheaping this thing right
on up. You know, got a house, got a large
storage air next to their bedroom. That's a hall closet.

(01:05:15):
That's what that is. It wasn't no huge room and
all that. Then he locked the door behind you. But
then your husband called it that very moment. Hell right,
I'm be right home quick. Wait, I'll be home, but
I don't know what these people doing out here in

(01:05:35):
this traffic. I'll be home and I'll call you. Let
me call you back. I got to just be buy.

Speaker 6 (01:05:45):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
I don't know how you played that off, but that
sounded like it. I had to have sex real quick.
That's what I had to do, and it was so
so so good. I got myself together and my daughter
and I left. On the way home, my daughter asked
me why we were locked in the closet. That's because

(01:06:07):
your daughter knew what it was. Yeah, she heard this
huge story room. The daughter said, it's a closet. What
room down the hallway next to the bedroom. That's a
huge extra lady bye. I tried to convince her. My
daughter asked why we were locked in the closet. I

(01:06:27):
tried to convince her that she was mistaken. She's a
very outspoken eight year old, so I'm sure she'll ask again.
What do I tell my child? And what if she
ask in front of my husband? Well, this is how
you had an eight year old.

Speaker 1 (01:06:42):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:06:44):
You use something that's important to an eight year old
and you hang it over the head in the form
of a threat.

Speaker 7 (01:06:58):
Okay, like you.

Speaker 2 (01:07:01):
Oh so I see you don't want nothing for Christmas.
You're not gonna get no birthday gift this year. Now
you go in this house running your mouth and asking
about it. Because I was not in that room. I
was in there looking at your bedroom, and we came
right out. You was watching TV. That's why I got

(01:07:22):
you and we came home.

Speaker 7 (01:07:24):
Well where were those noises?

Speaker 12 (01:07:26):
I heard?

Speaker 7 (01:07:26):
Mommy?

Speaker 2 (01:07:28):
You keep on home, do listen to me. You keep
on and you finish find out that it ain't either
one of them your reds, dady. She's only eight st Well,
you're gonna need therapy playing with me. What you're gonna need?

Speaker 7 (01:07:46):
I heard so much noise and you were hollering Mommy.

Speaker 2 (01:07:51):
Stop calling me that, because I ain't you real mama.
Now get in the car. See, I'm gonna put something
else on that eight year old head. I'm gonna twist
their little brain up so bad. We'll be talking about
the closet.

Speaker 5 (01:08:01):
Mama. What you mean You ain't my mama.

Speaker 2 (01:08:03):
I ain't your mama.

Speaker 5 (01:08:04):
And that made your daddies. Now let's get in the.

Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
Car and go to school.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
Baby.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
You have a quandary, lady, because you did something in
front of the child.

Speaker 5 (01:08:18):
Kids nowadays are not stupid.

Speaker 7 (01:08:20):
They are not.

Speaker 2 (01:08:22):
They are over exposed to everything. Everything that's right.

Speaker 5 (01:08:27):
Every single thing.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
So know that, be aware, make the adjustments and now
all you can do. And you raised this little girl,
so you know she's outspoken, and you know she gonna
ask again one more question, because mammy, you never cleared
this up.

Speaker 7 (01:08:43):
Yeah, one more question. Why were your clothes all wrinkled
and stuff?

Speaker 5 (01:08:50):
Why was my clothes rinking?

Speaker 7 (01:08:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
Because I went to the bathroom and David didn't have
no toilet, titian. I was thinking about using my blog,
but I found a toilet. Really really, don't ask me nothing.
I say stuff like.

Speaker 7 (01:09:05):
Mommy, what about your hair? It was messed up?

Speaker 2 (01:09:09):

Speaker 9 (01:13:39):
Coming up at the top of the hour, a woman
on social media needs some advice. She says, great guy,
terrible sex life. We'll talk about it right after this.

Speaker 2 (01:13:48):
Look like you got your hair on baccles. What are
you doing?

Speaker 7 (01:13:52):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 9 (01:13:59):
I Steve here. This is from Jaquela on Steve Harvey FM.
Jaquyla says, I've been with my boyfriend for almost four years,
and emotionally he's everything I've ever hoped for. He's kind, loyal,
and thoughtful. But the sex has never been that good.
It's not for lack of communication. He just doesn't seem
to care or want to get better. I hate that

(01:14:22):
this matters so much to me, but it does. Can
I really commit to a lifelong relationship with someone who
is bad in bed?

Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
Yeah, that's all he bad, you know, all his bad
sex and this come that's just no practice.

Speaker 7 (01:14:38):
But he doesn't seem to care, she says, or.

Speaker 5 (01:14:40):
His call of me is he's having it for himself
and not for her.

Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
If a man could understand, yeah that if you put
the focus on her, your return is even.

Speaker 7 (01:14:54):
Greater in every aspect of life.

Speaker 2 (01:14:58):
You just got to put the focus on her her first.
Take your time. Full play is critical. What full play
is critical? You need that because it extends the time spent. Okay,

(01:15:19):
and you're gonna have to learn some things. The precession
is just as important and can be critical to the
outcome of the main event.

Speaker 7 (01:15:29):
Yeah, because a woman has to get her in the
right head space.

Speaker 2 (01:15:33):
Yeah, Well, here's a deal. I think that's the best
way to put it. For fellas, It's like when you
go to the fight. You got the pre liums, you
got the bouts that start before before the main call
on the car.

Speaker 7 (01:15:45):
Now they can understand it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:48):
You've got to have an outstanding under card. The pre
limns have got to be outstanding. You better preach because
the main card is everything.

Speaker 1 (01:16:01):
Your work, yes, work, yeah, that's.

Speaker 5 (01:16:06):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
And then word get out. Well watch see see see
see here the part that you don't know this why
this young boy struggling over here and she won't know
word get out about your fight car.

Speaker 7 (01:16:25):
Okay, okay, uh.

Speaker 2 (01:16:27):
Next thing you know, word is out talking about man.
You got to get a ticket to see this.

Speaker 7 (01:16:34):
Hill the main event.

Speaker 15 (01:16:38):
Yeah okay, all right, all right, you ap preached that thing,

Speaker 9 (01:16:46):
Yeah, all right, we have time for another one.

Speaker 2 (01:16:55):
Steve.

Speaker 7 (01:16:55):
This is from Layla on Steve Harvey f M.

Speaker 9 (01:16:58):
Layla says, so I had a bad relationship with this
guy and we broke up. However, I just found out
that my friend who was cool with me and my ex,
knew what my ex was was up to, and he
was up to no good and he didn't tell me,
which is okay, his choice. However, now my friend just
got hired at my job and he's just chopping it

(01:17:20):
up with me like we're cool.

Speaker 7 (01:17:22):
We're not.

Speaker 9 (01:17:23):
Is there a way I can tell him don't talk
to me without making myself look like I'm mean at work?

Speaker 2 (01:17:30):
She's done?

Speaker 7 (01:17:31):

I'm cool with, but it we probably cool cause of
that due I ain't never been cool with a woman.
And then she introduced me to a boyfriend.

Speaker 5 (01:18:08):

a trend growing in popularity with gen zers.

you rather coming up at forty nine? Minutes after. It's
our last break of the day. We'll close out the
show with the one and only Steve Harvey. Right after this,
you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (01:24:33):
drifting toward your lane or that lane splitting vikar creeping
up beside you. Fortunately, every Hunday offers advanced safety features

Speaker 10 (01:24:51):
hundred and twenty IIHS Top Safety awards from two thous
I was six to twenty twenty four as of December
twenty four.

Speaker 9 (01:25:05):
All right, guys, this is our last break of the
day and Steve you ready to close out the show.

Speaker 2 (01:25:10):
Yeah, you know what, man, it's something personal. I'm really
really learning more and more and more about forgiveness. I'm
just learning more and more and more about it. You know,
I've always known that forgiveness is for you, not so
much the other person. Bishop Jake said it best one time.

(01:25:34):
He say not forgiving a person. It's like you drinking
a poison hoping that they die. And that's really what
it is when you forgive somebody. Well, first of all,
let me start with when you don't forgive somebody. Let
me tell you what happens when you don't forgive a person.
Every time they name come up, it stirs up something

(01:25:58):
in you, don't it. Every time you hear they name mention,
it does something to you. Every time you run across
a picture, it brings up something, don't it. Every time
you hear another story about this person, blah blah blah,
every time you hear some news about them, every time
you hear they said something else about you. It just

(01:26:20):
keeps on bringing stuff up, even when you sitting around
on your own. You imagine what you gonna say to
them when you see them. Oh, I know you do,
because I've been through it the exact same way. Oh man,

(01:26:40):
Especially man, when somebody somebody do something to you that
ain't right and you know it ain't right. That's hard, man.
When somebody's sitting around lying on you and you know
the truth, but you, for whatever the reason, can't defend yourself.

(01:27:00):
There wasn't available or nobody asked you about it. Hey, man,
that's tough. And you sit up and you're talking about
man when I see so and so, this is what
I'm gonna say.

Speaker 5 (01:27:12):
I can't tell you.

Speaker 2 (01:27:13):
The hours I've wasted wishing I could run up into somebody,
hoping I see them somewhere. I mean, and I'm miles
and miles and miles away from this person I'm talking about. Man,
really got no chance of running up into him at all.

Speaker 10 (01:27:36):
All.

Speaker 2 (01:27:36):
Then they pop up again and they do it to you.
Here's the one that really hurts your feelings. Have you
ever had somebody do something to you publicly, then see
you privately, you know, do something to you down on
your job or something like that, or at your little
club or your bowling night, And then privately they apologize

(01:27:58):
to you and you say okay, And then a little
while later they do the exact same thing again. They
back out in public running their mouth. You gonna wait
a minute, man, I know the truth about you. I
really know. When you see me face to face, you
a coward. I know that about you. But soon as
you get in front of somebody, soon as the spotlight

(01:28:19):
on you, here you come with a brand new has
that ever happened to you? Yes, it has. Somebody says
something to you down at the church, talked about you.
Then you confronted them, forgive me, sister, forgive me brother,
and you do it, and then a little later on
they do it again. Okay, cool, I got all that.
You gotta forgive them? Oh no, no, Steve, I'm gonna

(01:28:40):
tighten them up. No, man, let me tell you what
you're doing. You're doing the same thing I was doing
to myself. You wasting energy because guess what, what did
it really change? The stuff they said about you? What
did it really change? You've been moving on and rolling

(01:29:02):
on and just going on about your day. You really
man ain't lost a step because of that lie, that rumor,
that untruth, that falsehood. You really didn't lose a step
at all. But you keep prohibiting the next step because
you won't let go of something somebody did to you.

(01:29:25):
The Lord's prayer says, forgive us our trust passes, as
we forgive those who truspass against us, because we gonna
make a mistake too. Now it may not be that one,
but we're gonna have to go to God for something. Now,
God gonna reward us and give us something the same
way we give it out to other people.

Speaker 5 (01:29:43):
Plus, let me tell you what I really had to
learn about it. When you don't.

Speaker 2 (01:29:48):
Forgive a person, you're blocking your blessings. You blocking your blessings.
A woman, an old woman that I know who I
just happened to be talking to a relative, as she says, Steve,
I'm so proud of you. I have watched you. I

(01:30:12):
have watched God bless you. I have watched God change
your life. I have watched you develop into a better person.
I'm so happy you met Marjorie. I can see so
many things in your life. She said. But let me
tell you something, young man. If you're holding on to
anything that anybody has done to you, let it go,

(01:30:36):
because you're blocking your blessings. As blessed as you are,
she said, I bet you there's something you can't figure
out why you just can't get this next one to
go through. And I said, you know what, You're right.
I've been wondering why something taking so long, she said,
Because God ain't gonna give it to you and to
you forgive that person, he said, because he don't want

(01:30:59):
you to carry that with you into the new level.
He gonna take you too. In order to get to
the next level, you gotta let some stuff go. In
order to reach your full orbit in life, you can't
carry all the gas tanks. Some of them gas tanks
is empty and out of gas. They got to fall
off so the ship can get into full orbit. Let
it go so God can move you forward. That's the

(01:31:23):
best thing I've learned about forgiveness, And it's really for
you because that person right there really ain't about lotted now.
They really ain't, So why would you allow them to
affect you that way? Just think about it, y'all.

Speaker 6 (01:31:39):
I have.

Speaker 5 (01:31:41):
For myself, y'all, have a great day. Talk to God today.
He would absolutely love to hear from me, all right.
