Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today show is pre recorded.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Y'all know what time. Y'all don't know y'all.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
All at all, So.

Speaker 4 (00:12):
Don't given them.

Speaker 5 (00:15):
Back.

Speaker 4 (00:15):
The bus busy.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
Listening to.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
To I don't Joy, Yeah, Joy, you gotta do.

Speaker 6 (00:59):
That love you.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Turn turn.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
I can't.

Speaker 7 (01:41):
Go to turn the mouth the turn.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
You probably got to turn mouth turn out, turn the
water the water up looking.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Come come out, you think, Uh huh, I sure will.
Good morning everybody.

Speaker 8 (02:04):
You're listening to the voice, Come on digny now, one
and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Here we
go today. I think I have something for a lot
of people today, at least I hope I do. And
this is about on your journey, And this is about
something that happens to us all. I mean, what happens

(02:30):
to all of us from time to time when we
get discouraged, What happens to all of us when we
feel like quitting, What happens to all of us when
we have that turnback moment, What happens to all of
us when it don't seem like it's going to pan out.

(02:50):
Because I want you to understand something that everyone, every
single living soul, has those thoughts about something at some
point in their life. I mean, you know, look, I've
oftentimes been discouraged about things not happening as fast as
I like them. All things don't pan out the way

(03:13):
I would like for them to have panned out. I mean,
it's so many ways to get discouraged. But but what
my encouragement to you is when discouragement comes is understand this.
It is a part of the growth process. It is

(03:36):
a test. It is a test of your faith. How
bad you want it, do you really believe? That's all
faith is is simply and I've said this how many times.
Faith is the belief in things that you cannot see.

(03:57):
So when discouragement comes, setbacks comes, it is a test
of your faith. At least it's been that way for me.
Now other people can explain it another way. I'm not
other people. I can only give it to you the
way it has come to me and throughout my life,
and man O man oh Man. Discouragement sometimes it's tough

(04:17):
to deal with because it seems at times when you
were discouraged that it is so absolute that this means
the end, and if you allow it to set in,
it can be just that the end of you when

(04:37):
merely merely, it was a test, That's all it is.
But the majority of people that I know who are
not successful or who have told me the story of
how they gave up, it was because at a moment
of discouragement that they allowed it to set in and

(04:58):
it became so engulfing that it became the reason why
you shouldn't finish. And then they started justifying it with
hitt one that I hate to hear. Well, if it's
God's will, excuse me. If it's God's will that you fail.
If it's God's will that you're not successful. If it's

(05:22):
God's will that you lay down and give up, it's
God's will that you allow yourself to amount to, not
to not reach your potential. That's God's will. That's not
the God I know. That's not the God I served.
That's not the God I've read about. That's not the

(05:42):
God I believe in. I'm sorry. I just my mother
always taught me something that he didn't bring me this
far to leave me. I just don't believe that, not
for a second. Now have I convinced myself for some things, Yep?
Have I allowed the devil to come into the picture

(06:02):
and paint a different one from it. Yep, yep, I've
done all of that, But you can't blame that on God. Now,
come on, So when discouragement comes, try to look at
it if you can, as a test of your faith,
and you merely have to pass the test. It could

(06:25):
be for a day, a half a day, a few hours,
a week, a few weeks, it don't matter. Don't nobody
know how long the test period is. Your job is
to keep the faith and keep moving. Keep the faith
and keep moving, keep working, keep believing, keep hope alive.
That's your job. If you do that, that's how you

(06:48):
pass the test. It could be over tomorrow, it could
be over in two weeks, it could be over in
a month.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
You don't know. But all you got to do is
wake up and keep the faith and fight the discouraging feeling.
And how do you do that? Steve? Now here we go.

Speaker 8 (07:03):
This is the part I know about for show because
how many times I've had to fight off discouragement in
order to get to where God wanted me to be.
What do you do when you become discouraged? Well, I
think of the outcome when I get discouraged about a task.

(07:23):
I think about the outcome, Man, what would it be
like if I were to complete the task?

Speaker 2 (07:29):
What would it be like? Man?

Speaker 8 (07:31):
What would the outcome be for me if I hung
long in there, if I didn't give up, If I imagine,
I imagine, if I don't quit, I imagine if I
don't give up, what would it be like?

Speaker 5 (07:47):
Man?

Speaker 8 (07:48):
Suppose everything I'm hoping for comes true. But if I
don't quit and give up, that might just be the case.
I start talking to myself like that, I think, think
of what the upside is? What's the upside to stay
in with it? You see, all this is the same thing.
I'm just giving you different ways to look at it.

(08:09):
I'm saying the exact same thing over and over. But
I'm just trying to find the switch that connects in
your mind where you can say, Okay, man, I'm gonna
hang in there. Because if you think of the outcome
and the outcome is appealing to you, if you imagine
what it would be like if you don't give up
or you don't quit, if you think only of what

(08:30):
the upside is to stay in with it, and then
I go, where can this lead to? If I stay
with it? Man, and the outcome comes true? What else
could that lead me to? Because I mean, there's always
more to it. So where else could this lead me to?

(08:51):
What are the possibilities?

Speaker 5 (08:53):
Man?

Speaker 8 (08:54):
What are the limitless possibilities? What could God possibly have
in store for me? If I just hang in there,
if I pass this test of faith? If I just
pass this test, now, it ain't gonna be the only one.
But you gotta get past this one. No, then you
gonna hear the smooth plane. Then it's gonna be another one.

(09:14):
It's gonna be another one. Life ain't nothing but a
series of tests.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Man.

Speaker 8 (09:20):
Man, when you're thinking about giving up, when you're discouraged,
think of the outcome. Imagine what it would be like
if you don't quit, if you don't give up, what's
the upside to stay in with it? Where can this
all lead to? What can this get you to? If
you do this and you get to where you think

(09:40):
you want to be? Oh my god, what's after that?
What are the limitless and endless possibilities of holding on
to your faith?

Speaker 2 (09:50):
What could really be out there for me?

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Man?

Speaker 2 (09:52):
If I just passed this test, you gotta talk yourself
into hanging in there.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're listening moning yea.

Speaker 8 (10:02):
Ladies and gentlemen, let me have you undivided attention. It's
another day, another opportunity, another blessing from our heavenly Father.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
However you choose to worship God, that's your business. That's
not my job. My job is to ride and remind.

Speaker 8 (10:17):
You of the whatever relationship you got, get it focused,
get some gratitude going, because this ain't really how it's
got could go for you. It could be worse. I
don't care how you struggling. Example, my back is ailing
me right now. I got some back issues. There are
people who are laying on their back and can't walk.

(10:38):
I need to go ahead home. You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
I mean I got you.

Speaker 8 (10:42):
You might be one paycheck or one decision away from
being homeless, but you still got a key to a door.
There are some people who are already homeless who don't
have a key to a door.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
Come on, man, you gotta think about this the right way.
I'm just grateful.

Speaker 9 (10:56):
Man.

Speaker 8 (10:56):
God is good, you blessed, highly favored. We again, ain't
we got another shot. Keep your head up, have positive thoughts,
and attract the right energy. But above all else, former

into space when people talk to me. He said, I'm
childish for acting like that. What did he expect?

Speaker 5 (24:59):
She put on a ship.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
People started talking to her. She would He's sitting up
there hum in the whole time. How you doing, man?
What you're doing? What you stop doing it? I'm saying,

(25:29):
negro spirituals? Why are you talking?

Speaker 4 (25:37):
Let it alone?

Speaker 1 (25:39):
He was embarrassed. Yeah, that's what he gets at his core.
Pretty then, yeah, telling her to shut up let me
do all the talking.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah, okay, cool, all right, all right, go ahead, do
all of the damn talking. There you go.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Why would he say that to her, Celo.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, because he probably know you know what. Come on,
you know maybe maybe you know what.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Let me hear you say this. Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
Well, it's a couple of things could be going on.

Speaker 8 (26:13):
He don't want her to blurt out too much information
because he'd told the people down at the job he's
something else. She might say the wrong thing, expose a
lie he told. That's number one. He might also think
she talked to damn much. That's another thing. And then
the third one that we're hoping is you really find

(26:35):
but you ain't that bright. But then she got to
be bright because she is CNA.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah yeah, uh huh.

Speaker 8 (26:44):
So I think what you did was absolutely brilliant. Oh
hell yeah, Oh you don't want me to talk? Okay,
watch this here.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Childish?

Speaker 8 (26:54):
Come on, but it's childish and him, why would you
take a woman and then tell her let me do
all tight? You just be an arm candy? Yes, now,
you can't do people like that. Okay, all right, cool,
let me show you how. I just be arm camp. Hello, madam,

(27:15):
how are you today? I'll be doing chance all kind
of stuff.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
All right, shut your damn up, all right, Last one,
last one, Celo. It's from Amanda in Pittsburgh. I'm a
newlywed and we're having our first baby. My husband wants
to move back to Alabama so his mama can help

top of the hour, as we switch gears here, d
NC Chairperson Jamie Harrison will be our special guests. You
don't want to miss it. Right after this. You're listening

(29:28):
Hard Morning Show.

Speaker 8 (29:32):
Our special guest this morning happens to be the chair
of the Democratic National Committee.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
He's joining us today live from Chicago.

Speaker 8 (29:39):
He's still there, and he had a great speech Monday night.
He's joining us because I want to talk to him
about that briefing. Will I want to share all the
thoughts he had about his speech and this historic nature
of this year's convention and the message of hope and joy.
Let's get to it. Please, welcome back to this sh show.

(30:00):
Our buddy. He's been on show several times. He's the
best representative for the Democratic Party I've ever had on
this show explains everything. So well, he's back, mister Jamie Harrison. Well, brother,
you're still in Chicago. First of all, we heard the

(30:21):
speech Monday night. Outstanding, big out maya.

Speaker 7 (30:25):
Yes, he was up.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
You're looking good man.

Speaker 8 (30:28):
First of all, so how do you feel about the
speech you gave? And then what's the feeling that this
year's convention?

Speaker 3 (30:35):
Well, Steve byself, I felt amazing being on that stage, man,
And you know, we got to step back and understand
the history of all of us. And it was really
an emotional date. You know, sixty years ago Fanny lou
Hammer came to the Democratic National Convention and testified as
the Credentials Committee and she said, then, you know, because

(30:56):
it was an all white Mississippi delegation, and she said,
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. And
you fast forward to sixty years now today, and I
gabbled in this convention, a black man from South Carolina
with a black woman our convention chair. Then, y'all more,
a black woman who grew up here on the South

(31:17):
side of Chicago, and we are nominating a black woman
to be president of the United States. Folks, that's a history.
I want people to step back and understand that we
all are part of history right now, and we got
to appreciate that and make sure that this history is
a successful one. Com O Harris needs to be President

(31:39):
of the United States, and it's within our power to
make that happen.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
Yes, that's a fact. It is within our power.

Speaker 8 (31:47):
And let's talk about how we can harness some of
this power, right because from what my understanding, I want
you to help explain this to me. I didn't my
understanding that the DNC wants to be more inclusive with influencers.
Tell me about that and what exactly the VNC is
trying to accomplish.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Well, you know, see, my vision from when I took
over the DNC was to make sure that we are
reaching people where they are. Not just asking people to
come to us, but we're going to where people are.
And we got to understand that how people take in
information these days. My first political memory was nineteen eighty
eight and watching the Democratic Convention Jesse Jackson on that

(32:29):
stage and we watched it on TV. Well, the way
that people watch this convention now is very different. That's
analog watching on TV, people are listening radio, they're on digital,
they're getting pieces from TikTok, Instagram, threads, Facebook and all
the ways. We got to make sure that we are
communicating with people in the ways in which they receive information.

(32:51):
And so this year we did something unprecedented. We invited
two hundred social media content creators. We credential them like
we were credential oppressed to come and cover the DNC,
and we even have a special space for them on
the floor of the convention. We've never done that before,
and that is because we want to reach everybody, not

(33:13):
just a select few, but everybody in the ways that
they get information. You know, the RNC didn't do that,
but the DNC understands that the people are the most
important thing in this election. We reach them, we win
this race.

Speaker 8 (33:27):
Wow, I think you're absolutely correct about that, because well,
let's talk about that difference too, because you said the
RNC didn't do that. So how does the Democratic National Convention,
how does it differ from what the Republican National Convention
look like back in July?

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, Steve, I mean their thing was old and stoic.
I mean, listen, who had big stars were I mean
they had Hulkgan, they had Kid Ron, you know, the
Amber Rose. I mean, excuse me who that's right? And

(34:07):
that's your big stars who you gonna bring to the table.
Look at the folks that we we have already had,
you know, from from uh Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Uh,
and we we haven't gotten yet to Madame Vice President herself,
Kamala Harris and then some of the other stars and
celebrities and rock stars and the Democratic Party that are

(34:29):
going to be on that stage. So you know, it's
a different type of vibe, it's a different type of energy.
It's almost like concert slash family reunion all together. And
there's a lot of hope and joy in the United
Center right now.

Speaker 6 (34:44):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (34:45):
And that's a far different field than what you got
over at the Republican Party. I mean, he put on
Donald Trump Junior on the stage. Nobody want to hear
no Donald Trump ju No damnbody exactly.

Speaker 8 (34:59):
Remember did you hear the statement that Donald Trump Junior made?
He said, and he released his video says, I can't
believe how many black men, African American men come up
to me and go, hey, Donald Trump Jr.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
You're our hero.

Speaker 4 (35:14):
I go, like, what I w bro.

Speaker 5 (35:18):
In Hell.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Well, dude, oh Tim Scotts, God, guys are coming up.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
To him seeing that he's amazing and all that.

Speaker 2 (35:30):
That's the only one.

Speaker 8 (35:33):
I ain't never heard of. Black dude say that and
all my friends is black. Hey man, hey man, we
got thirty seconds.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
Hang on one second.

Speaker 8 (35:46):
I'm gonna bring you back so we can wrap up,
and I want you to talk about when we come back,
the message of hope and joy that the DNC is
centered around. And let's go over the what you think
are the distinct differences between the two candidates, Madam Vice
President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
So when we come back, we'll go over that.

Speaker 8 (36:06):
Our special guest is the chair of the Democratic Party,
mister Jamie Harrison.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
We'll be right back with Steve Harv Morner Show.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
You're listening, Morning Show, All.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
Right, we back everybody.

Speaker 8 (36:17):
Our special guest this morning is the Chair of the
Democratic National Committee, mister Jamie Harrison. And he's been on
the show before and he I thought, he's just been
the best guest we've ever had to really expound on
what the party was about in the Biden administration. Well,
now it's about to be a new administration. It's about

(36:37):
to be the Harris administration. And we were talking about
his speech at the Democratic Convention. We're talking about all
the things that's happening. But right now I want you
to share with us when we were when we got
two minutes, Let's talk about the message of hope and
joy of this year's DNC is centered around and what
you think are the two key differences, I mean the

(37:00):
differences between the two candidates.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
That's running well, Steve, you know, the Republican Party is
a party of fear. They want to make you afraid
of everything you know, your neighbors, your friends, or family members,
and they want you to think that everybody's trying to
get what you want. We the Democratic Party, are the
party of hope.

Speaker 6 (37:19):
We are the party of hope.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
We you know, they think that our better days as
a country are behind us. That's why they say make
America great Again. But we know that our better days
as a people as a country are ahead of us.
It's about the possibilities and that's what Kamala Harris represents,
you know, That's that's all the things that we all
try to represent. You know, I was born to a

(37:41):
teen mom sixteen years old. And you know, I gabbled
in the convention. Right, that only happens in America, and
that's what the Democratic Party fights for each and every day.
And we look at the contrast between Kamala Harris and
Donald Trump. You know, Kamala Harrison wants to uplift all
of America. She wants to make sure that everybody, regardless

(38:02):
of your race, your religions, who you love, how you love,
what you look like, that you can live the American dream.
Donald Trump only cares about one person living in the
American dream, and that's Donald Trump. He is the most
selfish person in politics in this country, in the country's history.
He was willing to risk the life of his own
vice president in order to hold on power. And you

(38:24):
look at Joe Biden and you look at Kamala Harris,
Joe Biden, I say it goes out as one of
the most selfless people in politics because he understood that
in order to protect democracy, in order to secure our
rights and freedom, that he had to pass at baton
to his very able and capable and intelligence a Madam
vice president. That's a selfless act. Whereas Donald Trump is selfish.

(38:47):
So Kamala Harris is ready to prosecute this case against
this thirty four accounts convicted felon who raped the woman
who was impeached twice. That is who Donald Trump is.
We wouldn't want Donald Trump to come to our how old,
or to be our neighbor to do anything. Why the
hell would we want him to be president of the
United States. Let's stand up and support Kamala Harrison because

(39:09):
she is one of us, and that's what we have
to do. She represents all the good of this country
and particularly all the good in the black community. We
need to stand up and be by her side.

Speaker 6 (39:20):
And have her back.

Speaker 8 (39:21):
Brother well said, and like she said, we are not
going back. We're gonna make America better. We ain't going back.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Hey, Jamie Hassen, thank you for joining us.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
Man.

Speaker 2 (39:33):
We'll talk to you some more as the election goes on.

Speaker 5 (54:26):
We got it for you.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
Here it is Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 1 (54:30):
Thank you nephew. Subject It's impossible to sleep next to him.
Dear Stephen Shirley, my husband is threatening to divorce me
because I haven't slept in the bed with him for
almost two months. I have asked him to do a
few minor things, but he won't. And to add to
the things he does to irritate me at night, he
does not wear his sleep mask, so he snores like sasquatch.

(54:53):
We got married in twenty seventeen, and he moved back
to our hometown to be with me. We met over
twenty years ago, but we were just good friends until
we realized that we had a lot in common. Our
long distance relationship was fine because he always came to
see me. I have children, so he would come by
the house and we'd have to get a hotel room

(55:14):
to have sex. He couldn't stay overnight at my house
because I have daughters and I didn't want to set
the wrong example. We had only spent three night full
nights together before we got married. He was definitely on
his best behavior night right after we said I do.
But then I started to notice a lot of nasty behaviors.

(55:34):
Here are a few. He rubs his ashy feet together
to fall asleep, and it's very loud. His foot scrapings
are left between the sheets and they get all over me.
He likes to sleep in nothing but his boxers, and
his bristly bear chest pokes me when he tries to cuddle.

(55:55):
He needs his sleep mask, but he won't wear it
because he likes to wake up in the middle of
the night for sex is not romantic, and most times
he doesn't kiss.

Speaker 2 (56:03):
Me or look at me.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
He's usually loud and out of breath. We're an older
couple and we are set in our ways. The sex
is doable, but it's impossible to sleep next to him.
Can our marriage work if I sleep in the other room? Well,
you just said he's threatening to divorce you if you
don't sleep in the same bed with him. And this

(56:26):
has been going on for two months now. He's not
having it. He is not having it. But other couples
have made this work. You know, they come together to
have sex or and then they retreat to their own
rooms afterwards if the snoring is unbearable and all of that,
but through it all they stay together. And yes, you
can be turned off by his ashy feet and the

(56:49):
scrapings that he leaves on the bed, especially if they
get all over you and they're all in the bed. Yeah,
that's that's disgusting. And you know, moisturize, clean clean up
that we don't like that. You know, you can fix
the snoring. You know that might take a little effort,
but it's not impossible. And you know, marriage is a compromise.

(57:10):
You know that if he wants you in the bed,
he should be willing to make a few simple changes.
I mean, I don't think you should let ashy feed
and snoring make you have a divorce or anything. You know,
take him with you the next time you get your
feet done so he can get his done too. I
just think those small things would make a big difference
if you, guys want this marriage, if you truly love

(57:32):
each other, because the whole point is to make these
minor adjustments and get you back in the bed and
to save your marriage, basically, because that's what you want.

Speaker 2 (57:41):
Steve, Well, it's a.

Speaker 8 (57:43):
Good answer, Shirley, but I'm just gonna go on and
cut to it. The subject is it's impossible to sleep
next to him. The question at the end of the
letter is can I marriage work if I sleep in
the other room? Okay, let's just deal with the hobbys.
Can I marriage work if I sleep in the other room? Yes,
it can, but this one probably ain't. One more time,

(58:09):
Can our marriage work if I sleep in the other room?
It probably can, but this one ain't. And because you
said your husband is threatening to divorce you, because you
already ain't slept into bed with him for almost two months,

(58:30):
you can't take no mold. So now he threatening to
divorce you will hold up, don't. Let's look at this
part right here. This is why he got these nasty habits.
He rubs his ashy feet together to fall asleep, and
it's very loud.

Speaker 4 (58:50):
What is on his damn feet?

Speaker 1 (58:55):
Get to it?

Speaker 6 (58:55):
Get to it?

Speaker 9 (58:56):
What is you up?

Speaker 2 (58:58):
Okay?

Speaker 8 (58:58):
This is my hands in a mine microphone and I
got him right up against the microphone. And I have
for a man's soft hands. Most people shake my hands,
hold my hands, say wow, you have really really soft hands.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
Because I don't do nothing. I don't do nothing.

Speaker 6 (59:19):
Now.

Speaker 2 (59:20):
When I was in my twenties, I had rough hair
hands because I had.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
To go to work, calluses and stuff.

Speaker 2 (59:25):
Yeah, I had all that.

Speaker 8 (59:26):
I'm picking up manifolds, sledge hammers, you know, engine blocks.

Speaker 2 (59:31):
Yeah, I had rough hair hands.

Speaker 8 (59:32):
I don't do that no more. Now what is on
his feet though that he rubbed them together and they loud.
Now once again, let me show you. This is my
hands in the microphone.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
His feet is under the cover and they loud.

Speaker 8 (59:52):
I beat damn So homeboy, and y'all have already said
y'all are older couple. He don't do nothing than to
his feet, but walk on him. Ain't no lotion, ain't
no filing, ain't no clipping nothing. So now his foot
scrapings are left between the sheets and they get all

(01:00:15):
over me.

Speaker 2 (01:00:17):
What how you sleep with this nasty ass?

Speaker 4 (01:00:21):
What is we doing?

Speaker 8 (01:00:24):
And he likes to sleep in nothing but his boxes,
and his bristly bare chest pokes me when he tries
to cuddle.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
That's irritating.

Speaker 8 (01:00:34):
And he needs his sleep mask, but he won't wear
it because he likes to wake me up in the
middle of the night.

Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
For six Now for those of you, okay, yeah, just
think we'll have part two of your response coming up
at twenty three minutes after the hour. The subject of
today's strawberry letter it's impossible to sleep next to him.
We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening
Morning show, all right, Come on, Steve Let's cat. Today's

(01:01:00):
strawberry letter. The subject is it's impossible to sleep next
to him.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
And she said that right, it is impossible.

Speaker 8 (01:01:08):
So what she's done is she has already not slept
in the same bed with him for two months now
as she wrote the letter. And we found out lating
the letter, there an older couple and then she says,
can I marriage work if I sleep in the other room?

Speaker 5 (01:01:23):
It can work?

Speaker 2 (01:01:24):
But this probably ain't.

Speaker 8 (01:01:26):
And the reason you in that other room is because
you didn't know after dating him, because he used to
come to your house, but you got daughters, so y'all
would get a hotel room. And so now y'all spend together,
spend the night together three times, but maybe not the
full night. Now y'all married, and he lived at forget

(01:01:46):
who's wrong? He rubs his ass, she feet together to
fall asleep, and it's very loud. Let me show you something.
This is my hand in the microphone. Okay, you can
barely hear that, but you hear his feet is under
the cover and he rubbing them together, and they very loud.

(01:02:10):
What is on his mas's feet?

Speaker 2 (01:02:13):
Years and years of war tail?

Speaker 8 (01:02:16):
He don't lotion him. He ain't got no calamine. This
boy is beyond.

Speaker 2 (01:02:20):
Corn husker's lotion. He needs some firework done.

Speaker 8 (01:02:23):
He need a dipping, He need a hot wax, He
need a pedicure, He need a skin peel, probably need
his feet bleached. By this point, I don't know what
he ain't doing nothing on his feet, sept walking on
him and then the next thing that's wrong is he
likes to sleep with nothing but his boxes and his
bristly hair chest poked me when he tried to cuddle,

(01:02:45):
but then he.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
Snored like a bull.

Speaker 8 (01:02:47):
And he don't want to wear his mask at night
because he wants to have sex in the middle of
the night. Now, let me explain this mask to you.
The only mask I know about that a lot of
men some women have to wear it too, is for
sleep avenue. Yeah, it's hooked up to a machine so
it can force air into you so you can get
a real nice sleep. This is important if you have

(01:03:08):
sleep apnee because if you don't, most sleep avenue patients
also have high blood pressure. If you don't solve this
sleeping problem and help with your high blood pressure, that
can lead to stroke. This is not a joking matter. Brothers.
You have got to address the cause of you sleeping

(01:03:30):
on a machine. You don't have to accept sleeping on
the sleep apnel machine, because I did. I had to
sleep on it, and I slept on one for about
four five months. Then I got on a program, a
holistic approach. I got that inflammation out of my body
and now I no longer have sleep avenue. I don't

(01:03:50):
sleep on the machine. I couldn't stand it. Okay, So
that's what's wrong with him. So he got to get
hisself together for a mess around at high blood lead
to a stroke and we got another problem.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
All right.

Speaker 8 (01:04:01):
Now, he won't wear it because he liked to wake
me up in the middle of the night. And it's
not romantic. He don't look at me or kiss me,
and he usually loud and out of breath. Why know
where everywhere he loud because he's trying to have sex,
and them feet, them same feet, is trying to get
grip on them sheets down there.

Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
That's loud too.

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
For all of that combined, all that.

Speaker 8 (01:04:22):
You got a lot of racket going on. Then she
said the sex is doable, but it's impossible to sleep
next to him.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
Can I marriage work? And then the whole thing that.

Speaker 8 (01:04:34):
Threw me in this letter is my husband is threatening
to divorce me. I don't see how the hell you
ain't trying to divorce him. Yeah, I would flip the
scrip on his ass. First of all, he ain't gonna
get another U. And the reason he was available because
ain't nobody else gonna let you scrape them big ass

(01:04:56):
feet together and make all that damn noise. And now
I got foot shat all over me in the morning.
That ain't bro and he gotta do this to go
to sleep. Ah, hey man, listen to me, you're gonna
get We're gonna get a job as seleen. We're gonna
put them on their feet, and we're gonna heat up
some socks in the oven and we're gonna put them

(01:05:18):
damn socks on that night, and we're gonna do that
for a week straight. Then we're gonna get us some
corn Huskers lotion and we're gonna put that on, and
we're gonna bandage your feet up like a Chinese woman.
We gonna get you bonded and we're gonna get some
help for your damn feet. And then after that we
take them bonds off, we're gonna soak them. We're gonna

(01:05:42):
get you an ass and some epsence salt, and we
gonna see if we can get all this stuff off
your feet now. And then probably ran up his legs too,
so you're probably gonna most people have got ass, your feet,
got ash your ankles, which usually lead that Ashley Ashley kneecaps.

Speaker 1 (01:06:02):
Yeah, he's just a.

Speaker 8 (01:06:04):
Yeah, he raggedy. So yeah, baby, if I was you,
he I can't believe he finna get the divorce. You
ought to get the divorce. I'm not sleeping with you
like that.

Speaker 6 (01:06:14):
You have to.

Speaker 2 (01:06:15):
I don't mind this, knowing we can work around that.
I get that. We're just scraping your feet shavings on
me at night.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
We're not gonna do that, nasty Martin. Want to hear

with but he won't make the change. Well because he
won't make the changes.

It's smart not to say it. Coming up at the
top of the hour, Steve, a lady that works with
her lover needs some advice. H right after this, you're
listening morning show. This one is from val in, Oklahoma City.

Speaker 5 (01:10:45):
Steve.

Speaker 1 (01:10:45):
She says, I dated a guy that I work with.
He got married while we were still in a relationship.
I found out the week of his wedding, and he
told me that I was special and the sex was amazing.
But he's always been in love with his wife, he said.
He said it like it was nothing. I don't see
how he could possibly love another woman besides me, based

(01:11:07):
on the things we did together and how compatible we are.
I have to see him every day at work, and
he speaks and keeps going. I feel like I lost
my best friend. How could he move on without a conscience?

Speaker 2 (01:11:18):
Oh your self? God, what do you mean? How can
he move on like he don't have a conscience?

Speaker 1 (01:11:28):
Yeah, that's what she wants.

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
He speaks.

Speaker 1 (01:11:32):
That's something.

Speaker 4 (01:11:33):
What's up?

Speaker 9 (01:11:35):
He speaks.

Speaker 8 (01:11:36):
That means that he's consciously aware that you are there,
that's all. But he told you you were special and
your sex was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:11:45):
That's that's it. Thank you, that's it. It ain't no
more you amazing. But I love huddle.

Speaker 1 (01:11:58):
Married her. Yeah, that's cold. That's hard to hear.

Speaker 2 (01:12:02):
See, y'all got to quit thinking. Because you got some
good cookie. It's a whole lot of good cookies.

Speaker 8 (01:12:13):
He can't send these long the dunes. Yeah, keep it,
keep it, keep it, make a slew of good cookies.

Speaker 1 (01:12:26):
Yeah, she says, she feels like she lost her best friend.
You're just she'd getting a job, look at him every day.

Speaker 5 (01:12:35):
She just went too far with it. She got that
love thing wrapped up in and now now now she
just messed it off. It was going, it was going fine,
it really was. It was really for him, for him,
it was going for him. Uh, he had the best
of both worlds, sir, She knew them both worlds existed.

Speaker 4 (01:12:53):
She knew that.

Speaker 5 (01:12:54):
Yeah, no, I don't think according to the letter she
found the week up of his wedding. Yeah, well, at
least you found out, you know, at least.

Speaker 2 (01:13:09):
You found out.

Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
We have time for another one, because I'm gonna give
on this when I see you coming, all right, moving on, Steve,
we have time for another one. This is from Shondalin
in Brooklyn. Chonlan says, I've been divorced for twelve years
and one of my friends told me that she slept
with my husband while we were separated, right before the divorce.

(01:13:32):
My ex husband said it's true. He said he had
sex with another friend of mine, just to be spiteful.
He wouldn't tell me who it was, So I pulled
away from my four closest friends. It makes me think
I'm the problem. Why would two of my friends betray me?

Speaker 8 (01:13:47):
Well, first of all, you gotta ask yourself this question.
Why would your husband tell you that?

Speaker 2 (01:13:52):
Yeah? How does she find out about the first one?

Speaker 1 (01:13:56):
Her? One of the friends told, one of her friends
told her, and then the husband confirmed it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:05):
Yeah, I did it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:07):
He's spiteful.

Speaker 5 (01:14:08):
He said, you need girlfriends.

Speaker 1 (01:14:12):
She pulled away.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Well, well you need a new husband too.

Speaker 1 (01:14:19):
They're divorced.

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
Oh oh well yeah, yeah, yeah, you need your new friends, lady.

Speaker 1 (01:14:25):
Yeah, yeah, well she did. She pulled it. She said,
she's pulled away from her friends. She just wants to
know why would her friends betray her like that? Because
they're sorry?

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
Yeah? Yeah, but you know that.

Speaker 8 (01:14:41):
That's what adversity does. It points out things to you
that you need to know, that you need to know
so you can go on and grow. Sometimes, man, you
got to have things happen in your life that exposes people,
and betrayal is a good thing to find out. So now,
moving forward, when you get more and God get you
closer to where you want to be and what you

(01:15:02):
are what he has for you. He removes betraying people
from your life, and it's a good time to get
rid of mine. Glue to nobody. Yeah, I'm tinking you
go to whooped somebody as.

All right, that's today's rounded, would you rather? Guys? Coming
up next to our last break of the day, and
we'll close out the show with the one and only
Steve Harvey right after this. You're listening Morning show? All right, guys,
here we are last break of the day. We want
to say thanks to d n C Chairman Jamie Harrison

(01:20:48):
for being our special guest today. He was fantastic. He
was really really good. He brought that energy from the
convention right here to the show exactly Steve.

Speaker 8 (01:20:59):
You know, and folks, it's a clear difference between these
two candidates. I don't understand what people are seeing in it,
because Donald Trump is not concerned about you as a
regular person. He is concerned about the people who are
making donations to his campaign, who are rich, rich people,

(01:21:23):
because they know he's going to pass the policies that
will allow him to have more tax write offs and
things like that. They don't care nothing else about that.
That's all they want is to be able to jump
through these tax loopholes so they can keep more money.
They have no policy that's designed to help the common man.

(01:21:44):
They gonna cut medicaid, all of that stuff. Man, Just
look at him. They've already they've already cut out what
am I trying to say, affirmative action. Yeah, they're erasing DEI,
diversity of equity and inclusion, equity and inclusion. They're taking

(01:22:07):
black history out of schools. Their objective is to make
America great again. And in order to make it again,
you have got to go back. That's why I'm so
happy with the Democrats new policy of we are not
going back, No man, we got to move forward. Anytime
you see somebody talking about taking it back to the

(01:22:28):
good old days, you have to first ask yourself for
whom is this going to be the good old days for?
Because I can think of no period in my past
that was better than my now. I just don't I
don't want to go back to the sixties. I don't
want to do that.

Speaker 2 (01:22:47):
I don't want to go back to the seventies, the eighties,
the nineties. The truth. I don't want to go back
make America great again? For who blacks for? Trump?

Speaker 8 (01:22:59):
Show me anything Trump has done for blacks. Now, I
can show you some things he's done to blacks. I
don't know why you all keep ignoring the fact that
him and his father was taken to court and lost
because they were discriminating against black people trying to get
housing in New York. I don't know why you're ignoring that.

(01:23:21):
I don't know why when he wanted to take out
when he took out a full as full page ad
to convict those five brothers for raping the white woman
in Central Park, and they were innocent, he had convicted
and condemned them before the trial and wanted them to

(01:23:43):
burn at the stake. These young men were innocent. Their
lives were forever altered because of this. He that was
Donald Trump. Those were black people. If you look at
every time he has an opportunity, every black reporter that
stands up at the White House a pressed day and

(01:24:04):
ask a question, he insults them.

Speaker 2 (01:24:07):
He doesn't like any of them, talks about how ignorant.

Speaker 8 (01:24:12):
They are, how evil they are, how nasty they were,
had the nerve to insult the system that was in it.
Interviewing him at the NAJB National Association of Black Journalists BJ,
you gotta be kidney man, what are we looking at here?

Speaker 2 (01:24:30):
What are we looking at?

Speaker 8 (01:24:32):
I've been nothing but impressed by Madame Vice President Kamala
Harris's demeanor so far.

Speaker 2 (01:24:39):
Now is she perfect? No, she isn't. But let me
tell you what.

Speaker 8 (01:24:43):
She might not be perfect, but she a whole lot
more together than your alternative. It's only two choices on
this ticket. It's Trump and it's Harris, and you get
to pick who you think is the better person for
this country to represent it. And morals should come into play.

(01:25:04):
Credibility to come into pay. Honesty should come into play.
You should want a person man in office that you
could say, hey, that's the president.

Speaker 2 (01:25:14):
What is this feling stuff for? I don't what are
y'all talking about.

Speaker 8 (01:25:19):
Do you understand that you can't get a job at
the post office if you are feeling hell in state
downstates where you can't vote, if you are feeling how
the hell can you be a felon and be in
the White House. It don't make no sense. We are
so so hypocritical in this country. Y'all got the nerd

(01:25:45):
to be talking about. Y'all's that constitution, that piece of
paper admit amended so many times, and it needs a
whole lot more amendan too, if you want to know
the truth about it. Now, let me tell you about
that piece of paper they keep waving in our face
talking about we honored the constitution. That constitution used to
didn't let women vote, That constitution didn't let black people vote.

(01:26:08):
That same constitution had it written in there that the
negro was three fifths of a human being. That was
in that same piece of paper. Now y'all want to
do all these amendments and all of that, y'all, man,
you gonna miss me with that. Y'all go ahead on,
y'all can take that. That's why. And then people get
mad why the NBA players don't hold they hand over

(01:26:29):
their heart when the national anthem is playing? What they standing?
They standing there, They not kneeling, they standing while they
hands behind their back. Would you put your hand over
your heart if the flag that was playing treated you
the way they treated you? No, we not singing the
song until you treat us like Americans. This is how

(01:26:52):
we this is how we acted. Ladies and gentlemen. About
to get out of here, but I would love to
say happy twentieth anniversary to Collar and Tosh pharail up
in the building.

Speaker 2 (01:27:03):
Twenty years in the building.

Speaker 4 (01:27:05):
Yes, Annis, thank you.

Speaker 8 (01:27:07):
I don't want congratulations, Tosh, I don't know how you
did it, Tosh Medal parade, bitch.

Speaker 2 (01:27:16):
