Uh huh, I shure, well a good morning everybody. You're
listening to the voice. Come on digny now, one and
only Steve Harley got a radio show. I want to
share something with you this moment.

Speaker 7 (02:15):
In order for God to bless you, you have to
you have to have something you know and and and
that means I guess, I guess what I'm saying is
God can only bless you by your faith and your effort.
It's the only way He can bless you by your

(02:35):
faith and your effort. Now, because of his grace, he
gives us so many things that we don't even we
don't ask for, we don't thank him for, you know,
we don't even have on the list.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
You know.

Speaker 7 (02:50):
Oftentimes, you know, many of us have health, we never
thank him for We get another opportunity to wake up
the next day, we never thank him for it. We
take so many all things because of his grace, we
just take for granted, like it's just supposed to pop
off for us, just like that. Okay, including that, what

(03:12):
all this wonderful things he does us? And he blesses
us even far beyond our wildest dreams. I'm talking by
myself now us and a lot of you listening, without
us confiding or conferring in him. He still watches over us,
watches over us. I'm talking to all of us. Here
is what you get blessed on through your faith and

(03:35):
your efforts. I mean, he really gives you, give him
something to work with. This what I'm saying, He's gonna
do certain things for us automatically because he just loves us.
He automatically does things for us that we take so
for granted that a lot of people are not experiencing because.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Their time is up or whatever. I don't know the.

Speaker 7 (03:56):
Reason, but whatever the case, but he does so many
things for us automatic. Imagine what could happen to you
if you just gave him a little bit to work with.
Ever thought about that suppose this idea that's been burning
on the inside of you, suppose you just started it
today and don't wait to start an idea so you

(04:19):
can figure it all the way through, because you'll never
get started.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
You know.

Speaker 7 (04:24):
It cripples so many people because they think of how
to start their business. Then they look all the way
down the road and the loans they gonna need, and
they don't know nobody, and they care they bad, and
so they stopped.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
They never started.

Speaker 7 (04:37):
What would happen had you ever thought if you just
started do the part of the business that you could do,
and ask God to lead you and guide you to
the next step, that that thing called faith, the belief
in things that you cannot see. Suppose you just started
out on faith, You just stepped out the water, stepped
out the boat and stood on the water, just on faith,

(04:58):
seeing that as well, but just believing that He would
take care of you, just believing that He would get
you through through, just believing that He would lead you
to the next step.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Start.

Speaker 7 (05:10):
If you just started now, you would then give God
something to put his finger on and to bless. People
say to me, all the time, man, man Steve, it
seemed like everything you do work.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Man, do you know what it is?

Speaker 8 (05:24):
Really?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
I just lose the fear of failing and I start
I don't know how to do all of this.

Speaker 7 (05:33):
Come on, man, if I could have told you ten
years ago or there's no way I could have told you,
I'd be why i'm today.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
But if anyone had come to me and.

Speaker 7 (05:42):
Said, Steve, in ten years you will be doing this, that, this,
that and the other, they will recognize you here. You
will get this recognizable recognition, you'll get this award, and
you'll be living like this.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
I'd have just looked at them like they was crazy.
I really would have.

Speaker 9 (05:58):
Man.

Speaker 7 (05:58):
It's not that I didn't have the faith. It's just
that in my imagination I didn't see it. I've always
believed in God, I just didn't see things for myself. See,
I didn't open myself up to what God had for me.
I was just living my life based on what I
could see for me. When I stopped worried about what

(06:21):
I could see for me and started allowing God to
do what he could do for me, it changed my
whole existence because I found out that God's plan was
way better than mine. But you got to start something.
You got to give God something to put his finger
on that might's touched where it turned into something. You

(06:42):
got to let your imagination go. You got to let
your imagination fly as wild as it can fly without
being constricted by the confines of where you live and
what color you are, and what sex you are, and
how much money you make and what your degree say.
You got to let your imagination fly beyond that. You
got to go for it. You got to step out

(07:04):
on faith and you got to go for it. Oh
and did I mention you got to pray? Don't want
to lead that out? Then you got to seek understanding. Man,
read Proverbs. Proverbs is a great book to start with out.
You know, I guess other people got other worse I'm
just telling you about me. Man, this is probably some
better places to start.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (07:24):
Proverbs was to start for me, the book of wisdom
and understanding that helped develop my thought process, which helped
me become fairly successful. Proverbs teaches you everything you need
to know. And if you can't read the King James version,
get you one of them translated Bibles. What difference it
makes long as you hear what he's saying to you. Oh,

(07:46):
and did I mention? Don't forget to pray and then
take the idea, the business, the journey you want to
embark on and break it down inch by inch anythings
and sich just start with the peace that you can do.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Okay, you don't know how you go get the loan?
When it's time for the loan? What part can you?
Can you design the business card?

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Can you?

Speaker 7 (08:09):
Can you make a YouTube video and post it? Can
you start telling people that you're associated with this is
what you do now? You could start somewhere. You can
get a gig somewhere doing something. Somebody will pay you
for the service right now, and then simplify it, take
it and break it down to the lowest common denominator.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Qut trying to figure it all out? Simplify it? What
can I do now? I can't figure this out. It's
too complex, it's too difficult, there's too many levels. Quit
tripping on that.

Speaker 7 (08:38):
Do the part you can do, but start, man, Just
get started today. Stop delaying it. Every time you put
it off, you seen further away from it, don't you.
Why won't you start? Let your imagination go open it up?
You know, if you can't imagine, God show can Einstein

(08:59):
said it one time, he said that imagination is everything.
It's the preview to life's coming attractions. Is that crazy?
Is that crazy? Do you know that everything we do
somebody imagined it? But do you know when they imagine
if somebody laughed at them? Man, I'm gonna make a
car that you can sit on it and will automatically drive,
and the wheels a roll. Who gonna do that? Okay,

(09:22):
here we go. We all ride in cars. Man, I'm
gonna fly. I'm gonna make something that will take people
far away in the air. People board flights every day.

Speaker 6 (09:33):
Man.

Speaker 7 (09:34):
Somebody sat up there and looked at that moon and said, man,
one day, I'm going to the moon. He talking about
going to the moon. They take people to the moon
all the time. Imagination is everything. It's the preview to
life's coming attractions. Or are you imagining for yourself? What
do you see coming? What's your coming attractions? I'm so
grateful I change mine. Oh I see being because I

(09:56):
see God. Come on, y'all.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
And gentlemen, we're back again. All thanks to God Almighty.

Speaker 7 (10:04):
Just to be back again, that deserves a rondem applause
for God Almighty.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
I'm talking about, man, how good is God?

Speaker 9 (10:12):
Really?

Speaker 1 (10:13):
Really? A amazing Thank you, Dave Roda applause. That's for God, everybody.

Speaker 7 (10:19):
Steve Harby Morning Show, Shirley Strawberry is off today, Carlin
Farrell Mississippi Monica Junior is off today, and the legend
that is nephew Tommy.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Well, Shirley's off, best voice.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
In all the radio is gone. Junior is off today also,
and so now we're here. Normally I would say, Junior,
what's on your mind today? But Lord, man, I ain't
asking him that today, because Lord, that would be that
would be down a pathway, slipping into.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
Dog may.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Anyway out today? Man? Old school had a song for everything. Yes,
wha slipping into darkness? That was war?

Speaker 10 (11:14):
Yes, yes, what if your nephew have?

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Don't just say if your nephews well, okay, here we go.

Speaker 9 (11:21):
Question.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
I mean, Tommy, you got anything on your mind today?

Speaker 9 (11:26):
I do.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
It ain't it ain't gonna hurt you.

Speaker 11 (11:31):
You know, family, family and and and families as falling out,
don't get in it, don't get back together. The tension
that that it, that it creates whenever we do come
around each other. How do you handle family fall outs man,
How do you fix them?

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Do you do?

Speaker 1 (11:48):
You do?

Speaker 6 (11:48):
You do?

Speaker 11 (11:49):
You jump in and try to fix it, because now
it's gotten to the point where we got we got
let's just say we got we got some relatives, my
wife got some relatives. Ain't spoke in six months, and
it's it's getting stronger and stronger and strong.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Don't have them at your house. That's your advice.

Speaker 7 (12:13):
Tell you right now, do not have them at your house, okay,
and and and tell me why, because you can't put
him out. It's hard to put people out. There's arguing,
you know, because it's if the women in there they
trying to fix it all this he is, So don't

(12:34):
have them at your house.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Now.

Speaker 7 (12:35):
What you could do is separate them, invite the better
half of the family that's involved in the dispute, so
you could try to uh narrate and negotiate what do
they call it?

Speaker 1 (12:49):
Mediate?

Speaker 7 (12:51):
But you don't want to have them both there and
and they know they both coming, or they don't know
one of them is coming.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
That's not what you need. So just have one side
of the family come.

Speaker 7 (13:03):
That's the cooler side and the one that you all
have decided that has the right way, because most.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Families know who's the right way. Yeah exactly.

Speaker 7 (13:13):
Yeah, So you know they wrong for that because once
I'm gona tell you something, Man, when people get together
and they will create a narrative amongst themselves that makes
themselves one hundred correct yep, because they ain't talking to
nobody but their self, yep.

Speaker 10 (13:30):
Dropping that knowledge.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Family beef early this morning, Okay, coming up at thirty
two minutes after the hour, the nephew is back.

are the you know, an age limit to praise. Yeah,
you need to find a new ministry after you just
you can't. You know, it's a limit on praise. Then
after thirty say okay, I'm gonna give you thirty five
after that. But when I see a fart of some
of your old praise dances, it's that's yeah.

Speaker 10 (14:52):
Y'all tell people what age to be the serve on
the ministry you got.

Speaker 1 (14:58):

I'm looking for uh Stania?

Speaker 9 (15:16):
This is Tania.

Speaker 6 (15:18):
This is brother Puller from the church.

Speaker 9 (15:19):
How are you?

Speaker 4 (15:20):
Oh, I'm with my brother, so how are you?

Speaker 6 (15:22):
I'm good I'm good. We wanted to give you a
call about the about the praise dancing that's at the church.
First of all, I wanted to really show you how
much you're doing a great job over there with the
praise dancers and you you definitely do a great job
on happy third, tell you that you guys actually perform.
Everybody seemed to really like it.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
Well, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 6 (15:41):
What can I do for you today? There is a
bit of a situation with you know, it's been brought
to our attention. We actually had a small gathering, a
little meeting about it and wanted to I've been elected
to actually give you a call. Who I'm sorry, who
are you kids? Brother Puller, uh huh and and who
had a meeting uh some of the brothers at the

(16:01):
church and uh path to actually sat in for a
moment on it. And I was actually elected to actually
just give you a call. Nothing that I don't think
we can't get rectified and and you know, move on
smoothly as.

Speaker 9 (16:13):
We normally do.

Speaker 6 (16:13):
But I just think it's we wanted to reach out
to you and kind of make you aware of it.
If it's if you don't mind, okay, and what things
are those well, sis Antonia? Has any of the praise
dancers before they became praise dancers?

Speaker 9 (16:30):
Was? Was?

Speaker 6 (16:32):
Was any of them strippers?

Speaker 9 (16:35):
I beg your pardon?

Speaker 6 (16:36):
Was any of the praise dancers that at the church
that you have on the praise team right now? Was
any of them strippers in the past?

Speaker 4 (16:45):
I'm sorry, sir, I don't I don't really know who
you are, and I don't really understand this line of questions.

Speaker 6 (16:51):
Like I said, I'm brother full I don't think we've met.
But uh, like I said, I've been elected to give
you a call.

Speaker 7 (16:56):
Not now.

Speaker 6 (16:57):
It seems what happened is this past week when you
all actually danced, it seemed like a couple of the
girls was actually GI raiding during the praise routine.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
Say what girating, brother Phillip. I don't know who you are,
and I don't know what you saw. None of my
girls with GI rating, they would.

Speaker 5 (17:15):
Dancing for the Lord.

Speaker 4 (17:16):
And I think if you look through your lord's eye,
perhaps you would see them better instead of maybe you
were looking through the GI rating eye. No, see a
couple of the girl we.

Speaker 6 (17:25):
Can pull them out. A couple of them half stript
girl tendencies up and then because some of them have been.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
Trimp girl's tendencies. You know what, sir, I think we
need to complete this call. Perhaps I need to call
Bishop and speak to him myself, because you know, I
don't know what you do all day, but I have
a real job, and I'm sitting here holding a conversation
in my office about Ji rating strippers in the church.

Speaker 6 (17:47):
Are you kidding me? Well, listen, now here's a couple
of other things that they're talking about. Some of the
girls seat or real ask you when you all are
performing and they wanted to see it. Maybe you can,
you can.

Speaker 9 (17:58):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (17:59):
Maybe I don't know if y'all need to grip or
whatever that y'all don't. Y'all don't put lotion on. We're
not sure what that is. As well as the totnail pology,
everybody has three, four, five different designs and everything is it? Anyway,
y'all can be in unison with your totnail pology. But
the most important thing hell the jib rating doing the
dance routine. I don't know what your feet look like.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
I don't need you calling me talking to me about
my girls their feet, their nail pology. Perhaps your man
should be on Jesus instead of on them.

Speaker 5 (18:29):
How about that?

Speaker 6 (18:32):
Mind, I don't have time.

Speaker 5 (18:33):
I don't have time.

Speaker 6 (18:34):
I want to be on Jesus when somebody's shaking their
butt at the church. Now that's the problem.

Speaker 9 (18:40):
You know what.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
Look, I'm at work now, I'm trying to keep a
work tone.

Speaker 6 (18:43):
You're gonna make me hurse up here and let me.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
Tell you something.

Speaker 5 (18:46):
Don't call me anymore.

Speaker 6 (18:47):
I will deal with pastor.

Speaker 4 (18:48):
If he has something to say with me, he can
say it to me personally. But I'm done with this conversation.

Speaker 6 (18:52):
Are you gonna deal with the JI rating? Is what
we want to know?

Speaker 9 (18:56):
Maybe you know what?

Speaker 2 (18:58):
It just hit me.

Speaker 6 (18:59):
Maybe you want of the ones that's doing the grub rate.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
Look, let me tell you something. My girls ain't doing
no jot rating.

Speaker 6 (19:04):
And neither am I.

Speaker 4 (19:05):
Now I am done with this conversation.

Speaker 6 (19:07):
Do you understand you? But listen, I'm done? Are you
done with this? All?

Speaker 5 (19:10):
Right?

Speaker 9 (19:10):
Rating?

Speaker 6 (19:11):
That's what we want to stop so we can We
can't praise the Lord if the booty is to shake.

Speaker 9 (19:16):
You know what?

Speaker 6 (19:17):
Shirt, Look, I gotta go to work.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
I gotta go now again. I don't know what your
issue is. It sounds to me like you have an
issue with gut rating booties. I heard so much joy
rating booties on one conversation in my entire life. Now
my mind is set on Jesus. I don't know what
your mind is set on.

Speaker 6 (19:32):
What's to tell you? Before you was the praise dance
a ministry over the ministry? Did you ever used to strip?
Y'all didn't do no stripping? Now did you want to
do any stripping? Did your mamma do any stripping? You
heard what I said? How are you asking to somebody call?
You would ask you if your mamma did some stripping?

Speaker 9 (19:50):
How you like that?

Speaker 6 (19:52):
You know what I want to know? When is the
next rehearsal? Then the way I can come and pick
out who it is that's doing this time?

Speaker 4 (19:57):
You don't You don't have any visits at my rehearsal.
I want to see you at my rehearsal. I don't
want to.

Speaker 6 (20:02):

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Well, you ain't got to do either one. But let
me tell you what. He can't come over there though
her house, right yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah yeah.

Speaker 7 (23:18):
You ain't got to sneak around, but he can't come
over there, and you can't expect her to allow him
in the house.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
If you know she don't like her.

Speaker 7 (23:27):
You can't bring him to her house. That's rule number one.
Now you ain't got to sneak around. Because you're thirty one.
You can openly date the guy. But hopefully he got
a house, cause he can't come over there. When he
come to pick you up, he can call you and
let you know he outside. He can come and meet
you at the door and walk you to the car

(23:47):
and open your car door and put you in and
shut the door and drive off. And when you get
back from the date, he can get out the car,
open your door, walk you back up to the house.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
He can't come in. Big sisters not like him. No, No,
that's how I don't let nobody in my house. I
don't like no bad all. I don't care who you are.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
All right, all right, moving on to there you go, Trinity,
Moving on to Melissa and Jacksonville dou ball.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
All yup.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
My son's tutor told me that she won't be able
to come to our house anymore because my husband makes
her uncomfortable. She's almost sixty, so I doubt my husband
came on to her. He laughed and denied it. Should
I take her seriously?

Speaker 1 (24:38):
She foined them. That's all. That's a fine sixty dough
let me tell you that right now.

Speaker 10 (24:45):
She shut up something.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
It a ma'am, and she's smart. I know a rithmetic that's.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
What he laughed at off and deny it and deny it.
This is what Melissa and Jacksonville said.

Speaker 7 (25:05):
Well what he got to deny it? That that's obvious.
But right what is it that the woman is saying?
She made the feel is he staring at her?

Speaker 6 (25:16):
You know?

Speaker 10 (25:16):
No specific in this from Melissa.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
My son's tutor told me that she won't be able
to come to our house anymore because my husband makes
her uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
She didn't say what exactly he is doing. Well, well,
she not coming to the house no more.

Speaker 7 (25:31):
Now if you're not gonna find out what's making her uncomfortable,
then your question was should I take her seriously? Well, yeah,
you have to take her seriously because we're in a
culture now where anything can turn into a lawsuit, So
you have to take her seriously. But I think to

(25:51):
keep your family together and to keep everybody safe, just
get another tutor. Yeah, yeah, because if the woman is lying,
you don't need up around your family no more. And
if she telling the truth, yeah, you don't need up
around the family no more.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
So the boy gonna flunk for a minute. Basic, Yeah,
he'd be all right, though, I got a lot of else,
I got a lot of made look at you now? Yeah?
Everything where about? Else said? He gives them else he coupled.
How old is the boy here? A tutor?

Speaker 3 (26:28):
Well he needs a tutor? Yeah, you know, so, hey,
he'd be all right. Maybe you find another place to tutor, like,
I don't know, library or.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Something like that. Anyway, moving on Rico and Trenton, New
jer Zy.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
My wife and I heard our fourteen year old daughter
on the phone cursing out a boy that rubbed her
butt at school. I think my daughter gets a pass
for how she handles the situation, but my wife wants
to punish her.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Should she be punished or praised? Punish her?

Speaker 7 (27:02):
Hey, tell me who the little boy is, right, so
I can go up to the school and talk to
his daddy. Yeah, see, that's all that is. You know
what you want to punish her for? Cause let me
tell you something your kids is cussing when you ain't around.

(27:23):
Is was at mcgradson's basketball game. Uh huh uh BJ
a couple of weeks ago. Oh, by the way, they
won the championship, UDJ and the team job and they
get they get rings when they wear win ring. Everybody
get a ring and a trophy. And the rings are heavy.
They look like NBA rings, you know they have they

(27:46):
fake diamonds, of course, but they real heavy. They got
weight on them like a real wing. I was going
and here in third grade we won the elementary school championship.
When I was in sixth grade, I got a patch.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Anyway back to iron on patch.

Speaker 7 (28:06):
So anyway, that's in the seventies. Dog dogs that was
in his sixties. Seventies.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Come on, help Rico. Should they punish the girl or no?

Speaker 7 (28:20):
I don't think you should punish the girl. But I
think you all need to realize your kids are talking
a little bit different. I had his basketball team down
at the ranch for his birthday, and boy, I drove
up and they didn't know I was there. Boy, they
was out there letting him fly ifew little And you

Speaker 3 (30:18):
Okay, coming up talking to y'all. Entertainment's gold, that's gold.
Look you're listening Steve Hardy Morning Show. So according to
Yahoo dot com, stephen A. Smith has clapped back at
former First Lady Out Forever First Lady Michelle Obama after

(30:41):
she mentioned him on her podcast last week. She said,
in part quote, if I listened to ESPN for an hour,
it's like watching the Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Speaker 10 (30:52):
You know, it's the same drama. They're yelling at each other.

Speaker 6 (30:56):
You know.

Speaker 10 (30:57):
She went on about that. So then stephen A. Meth responded,
take a listen to his response in.

Speaker 12 (31:03):
Part, I adore and love practically everything about you and
who you are and what you represent, what you mean
to this country, what you mean that so many young
ladies in this world. What an incredibly motivational and inspirational
figure you are. And I feel even more adamant about
what your husband, Barack Obama said when he talked to

(31:25):
those men in Pittsburgh and implied that to not vote
for Kamala is because we're engaging in some sort of misogyny.
There are issues that matter to every American citizen, and
it sort of blackmail us emotionally into trying to compel
us to vote one way or another.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
It's part of what won Trump the election.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
So that was part of stephen A's response. It was lengthy,
but that was part of it. So what do you
guys think?

Speaker 10 (31:53):
I just I don't know.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
I don't think.

Speaker 11 (31:56):
I don't think everything needs to have a response to it.
I don't think you are always got to say something.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
He could have just let that go, yeah, because it
wasn't nothing.

Speaker 7 (32:04):
Everything don't but but his I don't know, he must
add some something else to say because that wasn't connected
to what she said at all at all.

Speaker 3 (32:13):
Well he and he said he respectfully disagreed with I
guess her opinion about the show first take, or.

Speaker 7 (32:21):
Well, you can't disagree with the person's opinion. Listen to me, man,
My wife don't like the show.

Speaker 10 (32:28):
She don't like all that Holland Yeah, it's a lot
of Holland on.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
She don't like all that Holland it's like Michelle Obama
is correct, it's a lot of yelling.

Brouh and it's a lot of women go why he's
so angry, Why his rains in his forehead? Why it's
just sports about sports? Yeah, you ain't in there interview
in Laziskian hoton. So you know, sometimes man, you you
just don't have to comment on everything. Yeah, how much
you love her and respect her? And what Barack Obama

(32:59):
did with the men in Pennsylvania and how what that
got to a All she said was watching Sports Center sometimes,
like watching the Real Housewives of Atleanta.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
It's just drama and yelling, right, And she did say
Stephen A Smith. She did mention his name.

Speaker 7 (33:18):
Well, that's who be hollering. She ain't wrong, she is
not dog. Sometime I don't call my boy because I
don't feel like that. Sometime we be talking, i'd be gonna, hey, man,
bag it down a little bit. I've done first take.
And you know what I said that Stephen At one
time he was just talking. I said, hey man, hey,

I remember that I said that to him. Man, you
just be talking like you just the voice of it.

Speaker 3 (33:51):

to that. I just I'm with you, guys, you could

Speaker 1 (43:24):
They care.

Speaker 10 (43:26):
All right.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
Here's another one.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
What's a myth about men? That's one hun untrue and
it makes you mad whenever you hear it.

Speaker 1 (43:36):
Once a cheatah, always a Cheatah. That just ticks me off.

Speaker 7 (43:40):
Man.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
So that's not true. No, that's not true. I don't
know why y'all don't understand this thing about cheating.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
Explain it.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
First of all, every.

Speaker 7 (43:53):
Man has cheated somewhere somewhere down the line before he
met you. Something something, And that's how we learned. Because
you pay for something, you lose something along the way.
You lose trust, you lose a person, you lose companionship, friendship,
and you learn. And but I've said this on the show.

(44:15):
I can't tell you how many times. All men can change,
all men will change. But there's only one woman we
will change for, and when we meet him, we will
give up all all the foolishness. That's the one I
hate that women say.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
That's some man.

Speaker 10 (44:33):
All right, Okay, Steve, what about your nephew?

Speaker 1 (44:35):
You got all men, all men with big hands and
feet is blessed? That's a lie.

I'm a little guy. I'm blessed. I'm a little guy.
I got little hand lift here. I'm still blessing that
that didn't say that.

Speaker 7 (44:49):
But I beg to different about what you just said,
seeing it's how you ain't got big hands of.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Sound like hate to me the struggle. Okay, here's a
lot of stuff, y'all. Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.

Speaker 10 (45:11):
What's something that you don't like or enjoy but wish that.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
You did something I don't like or enjoy, but wish
I did something I don't like? Yeah, but you wish
you did.

Speaker 7 (45:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (45:26):
That's a good crush. Yeah, that's a good one. Because
if I don't like it, I just I don't like it.
I ain't I if I don't like it. I don't
like what I wanted for. Well, that's fair. You can't
think of anything I wish.

Speaker 11 (45:43):
I like black Jack, but I don't know what the
hell I'm doing when I'm sitting there, I don't. I
can't enjoy that. That's then I sit on the end
and I'm messing it up for everybody else.

Speaker 7 (45:51):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
I don't like that.

Speaker 7 (45:52):

Speaker 14 (56:44):
Subject fight or Flight, Fight or Flight, Dear Stephens, Shirley,
I'm a thirty year old flight attendant, and I'm married
to a forty four year old professor. I met him
when I was in grad school and we started dating
after I got my degree. He was going going through
a divorce and we kept our relationship private until it
was finalized. He has a seventeen year old daughter that

(57:06):
found out on social media and she started a lot
of chaos in our lives. She didn't show up at
our wedding, and it devastated my husband. He was upset
that his ex wife allowed her to skip the wedding.
I was over her by that time, so I didn't care.
Now she's about to turn eighteen and asks if she
can come live with us in Florida and attend a

(57:28):
fashion school. I never answered my husband, and he eventually
flipped out on me and made the executive decision to
allow her to come. I fixed up our home office
for her, and I moved my desk on to our
sun porch. I was so irritated. She has been here
four months and she has done exactly what I knew
she was going to do. Now, when she's got an attitude,

(57:50):
I leave and go to work. I take any flight
available so I can get away from this girl. My
husband and I argue because he says I'm not a
positive model for her. She's a grown woman to me,
and she's got parents that failed her and allowed her
to disrespect grown people. I told my husband that if
she pops off at the mouth one more time, I'm

(58:11):
going to pop her. He says I need to learn
how to be a parent, and I told him I
will as soon as he makes me one. I would
rather work and deal with the plane full of needy
passengers instead of dealing with the grown child. My husband
told me that my fight or flight mentality is ruining us.
He can't see that his child is divisive and honoring.

(58:33):
Am I wrong or does he need to put her out? Absolutely? Yes,
I think you're wrong. I do think you're wrong on
so many levels. Here I'll tell you why. It's simple.
You are the adult. You keep calling her a grown woman.
You keep saying she's grown, but she's really still a child.
You're grown when you can pay your own way and

(58:55):
when you can take care of yourself, and she's not
doing that right now. She's in your home, living off you, guys,
she's living with you, guys. You're also grown when you
can face your problems head on. But what do you
do You run and jump on a flight and as
you say, deal with the plane full of needy passengers
rather than trying to fix a problem at the house.

(59:16):
And yes, it is a problem because it's causing you
and your husband to argue. Now why would you let
that happen? You too should prevent present a united front
to his daughter, making it impossible for her to come
between you guys, because that is what's happening, that situation.
You all are allowing to let it come between you.
Stay home in the midst of all this and handle

(59:38):
your situation. No more jumping on planes when you can't
deal with it anymore. I say, first you and your
husband should talk agree on some basic house rules. Then
a family meeting should be called to let the daughter
know about the new changes. And again, remember you and
your husband are on the same team, and you guys
are the adults. I mean, she needs to see that
you guys are together her dad, but he's your husband,

(01:00:01):
which means it's your house and your rules. So as
you know, she's welcome as long as she abides by
the house rules. I mean that means no attitudes, no
popping off, at the mouth, no disrespect of any kind.
And let me say this, if she pops off at
the mouth one more time, you're gonna pop her.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
Don't don't pop her. That's not what this is all about.
Don't do that.

Speaker 14 (01:00:24):
I mean, you know, she's angry, she's she's trying you
and all of that, trying to come between her.

Speaker 1 (01:00:29):
But you don't have to take it there. You can
be the bigger person here.

Speaker 14 (01:00:33):
You can invite her to lunch, you can do something
fun with her, you know, and try to make peace
with her, and like your husband said, be a role
model for her. I think you should try that before
you give up on this situation and start, you know,
popping her and all that all together.

Speaker 1 (01:00:49):
Steve, Wow, this is gonna have a couple of twists
and turns.

Speaker 6 (01:00:56):
And I.

Speaker 7 (01:01:00):
Agree with what She'll was saying about the letter. The problem,
the real problem here is in the letter writer. That
seems to be the real problem.

Speaker 1 (01:01:09):
Now you're a.

Speaker 7 (01:01:10):
Thirty year old flight attendant and you're married to a
forty four year old professor.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
Now see, I want you to understand something.

Speaker 7 (01:01:18):
The news got out some kind of ways because this
story got told because somebody knows he was your professor
at the school. I met him when I was a
grad school and we started dating after I got my degree.
He was going through a divorce and we kept our
relationship private until it was finalized. He has a seventeen

(01:01:42):
year old daughter that found out on social media and
she started a lot of chaos.

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
In our lives.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
Well, the daughter found out what on social media that
you all were dating or you all had gotten married.

Speaker 7 (01:01:56):
I think she found out y'all was dating, so quite naturally,
her and the mother are now blaming you.

Speaker 1 (01:02:04):
As the cause of the divorce. That's how it always works,
ain't it. Yes, So now after they found.

Speaker 7 (01:02:14):
Out on social media, she started a lot of chaos
in our lives. She didn't show up at our wedding,
and it devastated my husband. He was upset that his
ex wife allowed her to skip the wed You mean
his ex wife didn't make her go to the web
His ex wife wasn't now, so the ex wife didn't

(01:02:34):
make the daughter go to the wedding. What you mean
allow her to skip it? She's seventeen. She didn't want
to go down there because she figured you the reason
her mama and daddy ain't together, and her Mama didn't
co sign that, because as soon as you start dating somebody,
they go, oh here.

Speaker 1 (01:02:52):
She is right here. You the reason that you was dating,
and you younger, and you younger.

Speaker 14 (01:02:57):
Hang on, Steve, Part two of your responses coming up
at twenty five minutes after the hour Today's Strawberry letter,

Speaker 14 (01:03:44):
All right, come on, Steve, Let's recap today's Strawberry letter.
The subject fight or flight.

Speaker 7 (01:03:50):
Thirty year old flight attendant is married to a forty
four year old professor. She met the professor in grad
school and they started dating after she got the degree.
What she says he was going through a divorce, and
we kept our relationship private until it was finalized.

Speaker 1 (01:04:06):
He got a seventeen year old daughter that found out
on social.

Speaker 7 (01:04:09):
Media and she started a lot of chaos in her life.
She was seventeen then, well, now listen to that. She
didn't show up at our wearing and it devastated my
husband because he was upset that his ex wife allowed
her to skip the wear. No, his ex wife didn't
make her go down there, because the ex wife and
the daughter then came to the conclusion that this young

(01:04:30):
girl you married is the reason why y'all got the
divorce any way, and that's exactly how it looks.

Speaker 1 (01:04:36):
And then when they found out about.

Speaker 7 (01:04:37):
Y'all's relationship on social media, that validated because it was
only telling one story. Then you said I was over
her by that time, so I didn't care. So now
you didn't care if she comes to the wind because
you over.

Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
Her by that time.

Speaker 7 (01:04:54):
It was a year chaos that you was through with
the girl. She's about to turn eighteam Oh, So it
wasn't even a whole year because now you say it
was about to turn it to you see how fast
this is moving.

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
But you left that out the letter, baby, baby, you
left that out after she finds out there.

Speaker 7 (01:05:18):
Next thing, she know y'all getting married and there's a
fourteen year age justice and you were his students while
he was a professor, and y'all were seeing each other
while they still were married and not yet the boy
because y'all kept.

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
It to see see how this working? See how this working?

Speaker 11 (01:05:39):
Ah?

Speaker 7 (01:05:40):
Now she want to come live with y'all in Florida
and attend the fashion school. I never answered my husband.
He eventually flipped out on me and made an executive
decision to allow her to come.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
It's his daughter.

Speaker 7 (01:05:52):
She want to come down there and stay with her
daddy's go to fashion school. What you want him to
say except yes, I fixed up her home office for her.
I moved my desk into our son point. I was
so irritated you did all this begrudging me. She has
been there four months since. She's done exactly what I

(01:06:14):
knew she was gonna do. Now she's got an attitude.
Now when she's got an attitude, I leave and go
to work. See you're not explaining this. You're not explaining
she did exactly what you want. You don't give us
no information. I take a flight whenever available, anything to
get away from this girl. My husband, I argue, because

(01:06:35):
he says, I'm not a positive role model for her.
She's a grown woman. To me, Shirley's right, she's not
a grown woman. She's eighteen. She's just not turning eighteen.
She's a child.

Speaker 1 (01:06:46):
She don't get it. Now you're an adult. You know
what happened.

Speaker 7 (01:06:52):
You know why this girl mad. She's got parents that
failed her and allowed her to disrespect grown people. Wait
a minute, respect.

Speaker 1 (01:07:04):
On social media?

Speaker 7 (01:07:06):
You dating her daddy that's divorce and her mama? Wow
they still married that You kept it a secret. That's
what you said. Respect. See you want something you wasn't
willing to give, See, little sister, that's how this game work.

(01:07:26):
Now this the grown folk game. I'm just giving it
to you straight. I told my husband, and she pops
off at the mouth one more time. I'm gonna pop
up and then what?

Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
And then what?

Speaker 7 (01:07:39):
Because she talking that You're gonna hit her in the mouth,

I need to learn how to be a parent. I

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
Am I wrong?

Speaker 7 (01:08:35):
Or does he need to put out? First of all,
he can't put his daughter out, Well, you're asking a
man to not be a man. You're asking a father
to not be a farther. You asking a man to
show his daughter an example of man that he's hoping
that one day she'll be able to find put her out?

Speaker 1 (01:08:56):
Are you kidding me? And you asking that?

Speaker 7 (01:09:01):
What's wrong with your maturity level? No, he can't ask
his daughter to leave, and no he can't put her out.
I'm gonna tell you right here, y'all, you never failed

have dampered what was going on with brother.

Speaker 7 (01:11:22):
I don't think it did. I don't think it did.
You know, he still went into the hall. I mean,
of course he would have loved He asked ESPN to
hold the announcement until afterwards. They didn't because ESPN don't
care about his brother or his feelings. You know, they Disney,
we're doing the right thing. We're electric right now, so

(01:11:44):
you know, you know, they had a great moment on

Sterlin gave an emotional speech. I didn't see all of it,
but I saw people crying and people you know, talking
about it on social media, so that you know, everybody
was saying it was a touching.

Speaker 1 (01:12:12):
Moment for them.

Speaker 3 (01:12:15):
So that I mean, like you said, Tommy, first two
brothers to be enshrined the Hall of Fame, that's.

Speaker 11 (01:12:22):
Being one family with two of them gold jackets. Yeah,
and I held my jacket on ed tank.

Y'all see me out at the gas station with that
gold jacket on, pumping gas everything. You come by the house,
I'm cutting the yard. I got my gold jacket on. Man,
you can't tell me nothow.

You are in the hall? Yeah, in the hall that's
not in it now?

Speaker 7 (01:12:56):
Yeah, you know, I don't have anybody in the Hall
of Fame I think ought to be in there. I
think there's somebody in the Baseball Hall of Fame that
I think should be in there. I think the Roles
should be in there. I think Sammy Solser should be
in there. I think Mark McGuire should be in there.
And I think one thousand percent that very bonds.

Speaker 1 (01:13:20):
Oh yeah, that I do know. But America is so
dog on hypocritical.

Speaker 7 (01:13:27):
They got a lot of nerve man passing judgment on cats,
They got a lot of nerve. You can put Trump
in the White House, but you can't put Barry Bones
in the hall, man.

Speaker 1 (01:13:39):
Right that part?

Speaker 7 (01:13:41):
All right?

Speaker 10 (01:13:42):
Yeah, thank you, Steve, Thank you, nephew.

Speaker 3 (01:13:45):
Coming up at the top of the hour, a young
man on social media needs some advice, job offer or
love of my life.

Speaker 10 (01:13:52):
We'll talk about it right after this you're listening.

Speaker 1 (01:13:54):
To the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:14:00):
G on' Steve Harvey FM Rights.

Speaker 3 (01:14:03):
I'm twenty three and just finish school with a tech degree,
but landing a job.

Speaker 1 (01:14:08):
Has been harder than I expected.

Speaker 3 (01:14:10):
Right now, I've got a temporary job that pays the bills,
but I just got a full time offer with great pay,
double what I'm making now. The problem is is that
it's four hours away from my girlfriend. We've been together
since high school and I really do see a future
with her. But she can't move right now because she's

(01:14:31):
helping her parents out, especially since her dad's been sick.
If I stay, I might miss my shot. If I go,
I don't know if our relationship will make it. Do
I hold out for something closer or take the job
and risk losing the person that I love.

Speaker 1 (01:14:48):
You better go get this dog on job. Ory this
man up time right here.

Speaker 7 (01:14:52):
You can't buy houses and provide for families with just love.

Speaker 1 (01:15:00):
You have a part of your life as a man.
Provision is a huge part of it.

Speaker 7 (01:15:06):
M now, you stay in town and hold hands all
you want, but that's gonna get going to the movies.
But if you don't start progressing, the train up the track. Brother,
it's gonna be hard. So at one point in time,
you're gonna she's gonna a woman will marry you for security.

Speaker 1 (01:15:28):
So you're telling him, go get it, go, get it, go,
get the job, right, yeah, man? Yeah, you know many
times I have to move from work. We all have
ye move.

Speaker 10 (01:15:40):
Yes, we're going, We're going, We're going.

Speaker 1 (01:15:44):
We live in New York, we live in Atlanta.

Speaker 7 (01:15:48):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:15:48):
You gotta do what you gotta do. Yeah, so that's
good advice. All right, Steve, here we go. We got
time for one more. Steve and nephew. Marva on Steve
Harvey FM Rights. I've been married, y'all, Marva, all right,
marvra on Steve.

Speaker 1 (01:16:08):
Harvey FM Rights.

Speaker 3 (01:16:10):
I've been married just under two years to someone I
once thought was my person. At first, everything was perfect.
We had the same goals, the same sense of humor,
the same dreams. But lately I feel like I'm vanishing
inside the relationship. I'm not working right now, and my
husband was okay with that, but now he's grown distant,

(01:16:33):
even passive. Aggressive when I ask for money for the bills.
When I think about leaving, I hesitate because he's kind
to others says the right things in front of friends,
and I wonder.

Speaker 1 (01:16:46):
If I'm just being ungrateful.

Speaker 3 (01:16:48):
I've started emotionally pulling back, But I don't know if
that means it's time to go or am I giving
up too early? How do you know when your heart
is tired for a reason.

Speaker 1 (01:16:59):
Or not, and not just overwhelmed. So there's a lot
in that. What do you think?

Speaker 7 (01:17:05):
Yeah, that's a lot in that, you know. Look, I
don't it's there's so much information we don't have to
help you deal with that.

Speaker 1 (01:17:15):
You know, men are going to stress about the finances.

Speaker 7 (01:17:22):
They're gonna stress about the finances because that's how he equates.
That's how he measures his his manhood, his value. We
measure it by our work and what we bring to
the table and contribute to the to the UH, to
the relationship. Yeah, I'm still guilty of that myself after
all these years. So he's not going to stop m

(01:17:45):
HM wanting to have a say so in it. I
think what has to happen is he has to be
convinced that you're not going to sink the ship with
your decisions. I think you all got to have monthly
meetings financially to discuss moving forward what you're doing, because
if you don't, after two years of not discussing it,

(01:18:05):
all of a sudden, you're saying stuff like he's grown
distance and he's checking me.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
Now. Well, y'all should be having monthly meetings, and some
of this could have been avoided.

Speaker 6 (01:18:16):
Job.

Speaker 3 (01:18:16):
You know, I don't know if she quit because you
said it was okay with it. If you got fired,
you have no choice.

Speaker 11 (01:18:21):
When he said okay, it wasn't okay though when he
said it, it would clearly.

Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
But I like Chick for Something, got to get the
job they had on there, Chick for Late Now and
My Pleasure. More of today's trigger stories.

it's good Tuesday today.

Speaker 1 (01:25:15):
Yeah, what you got it was good. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:25:20):
Keep our coworkers in your prayers, Shirley and Junior, just
remember that. Also in my closing, let me say this,
and this is something that I'm currently dealing with, and
I know a lot of people. Matter of fact, I
don't know nobody who's not dealing with it. You know,

(01:25:44):
you know when you've been praying about something, and you've
prayed about it for a long time, and it's something
you've wanted and hoped for, and it's been a long time,
and sometimes you get to the point where you just
you want to go, Hey, God, are you listening.

Speaker 1 (01:26:03):
I said, this is what I want. This is what
I need. You know, the part that you have to.

Speaker 7 (01:26:09):
Understand, especially if you've been in contact with him on
a regular and even if you just started back with him,
or are you are? Are you starting up with him now?
God knows what we need before we ask. But the
part that we got to get to is to trust
in the timing that He has. Now, this is a

(01:26:34):
tough thing to do, y'all, because God's timing has never
ever been my timing.

Speaker 1 (01:26:41):
Ever, I don't don't.

Speaker 7 (01:26:43):
I look back on all of the things I've asked
for and I found out that the answer was no.
And I think about, man, how disappointed I was. Let
me tell you something I was. I was about twenty seven,
hadn't gotten into comedy yet. I interviewed with an insurance company.

(01:27:04):
And I won't say the name of the insurance company,
but my boy had got me the interview.

Speaker 1 (01:27:11):
The man I interviewed it with. His name was either
Roy Foster or Ray Foster.

Speaker 7 (01:27:17):
And I'd been through about four or five interviews and
this was my final interview, and man, I was so excited.
This was around in eighty four, eighty five, somewhere like that,
and I was so excited. Man, I knew I was
gonna get this job. And I went to the interview

(01:27:38):
and the man told me, you know, this is a
final interview, and I just have one concern. I'm looking
at your record and it looks like you've moved four
times over the last six years, and for that, that
just doesn't symbolize stability. He said, you want to explain that,
and I just told her. I said, man, I had
a couple of things happened.

Speaker 1 (01:27:58):
He had to move.

Speaker 7 (01:27:59):
My least went up, I moved again. I had the twins,
and I had to move to get a bigger place.
He said, yeah, yeah, yeah, Yo. All that says to
me is instability. Well, sorry, we won't be hind you
at that time.

Speaker 1 (01:28:14):
And so I got in my.

Speaker 7 (01:28:15):
Seventy two Chevy and I drove out the parking lot
and I was heartbroken because man, I wanted that job
so bad.

Speaker 1 (01:28:22):
And I swung around on the freeway.

Speaker 7 (01:28:25):
And I was driving past the big sign of the
insurance company as I had made that U turn and
loopter and tears was just rolling down my face. I
felt so disappointed at that moment. Man, God, you know
I need this job. I'm trying to take care of
these kids, and he said no.

Speaker 1 (01:28:47):
Do you know what.

Speaker 7 (01:28:49):
Had I gotten that job at guess what, I probably
wouldn't have got into comedy because that would have been
the career path I thought that I really wanted, and
God said, no, I'm not gonna do that. So the
answer is no. And as I look back over my life,
I can think of so many times that the answer

(01:29:10):
to my prayer has been no. And if it had
a been yes what I was praying for, my outcome
would have been totally different. There's no way I would
be where I am today had the answer had to
he answer to prayer the way I wanted it to.
So as I sit here today, are you sitting here
today and you've been asking for something over and over?

(01:29:31):
And I said, like I've been asking for something over
and over. Could it be possible that the answer is no?
And usually when God tells me no is because he
has a better plan. It has always worked that way. Man,
It's crazy. Hey, you know what, suppose you had stayed
with that person that you had prayed for. Suppose you

(01:29:52):
had stayed with that person that you really thought was
this that or the other, and you stayed with him,
would you be where you were in to.

Speaker 1 (01:30:00):
No, probably not. Had you stayed there, had they not
left you, had you been able to find who you
have now? Probably not. If you had stayed on that
job that you had, would you be in a position
that you're in now? Probably not?

Speaker 7 (01:30:15):
Or maybe it still ain't just works itself completely out yet, y'all.
You gotta keep waking up and understanding that when God
wakes you up, it's a clear sign that He ain't
through with you yet.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):
So why don't you see what the process? He is quick.

Speaker 7 (01:30:27):
Complaining all the time when it don't go your way.
Sometimes your way ain't really the best way. I've had
to discover that as smart as I think I am,
I've really made some dumb decisions.

Speaker 1 (01:30:42):
I really have.

Speaker 7 (01:30:43):
Man, I done walked myself into some crazy situations. So
now I'm really just learning to trust trusting his steps
as he's ordering a mind, because I ask him to
order my steps and trust in his timing and ask

(01:31:05):
God to let your plans to prosper me, let them
come true.

Speaker 1 (01:31:12):
That's the best way to live. If you can do that, man,
you release a lot.

Speaker 7 (01:31:15):
Of pressure from yourself because you're trying to figure out
which way to go. When God clearly has a path
