Water the money.

Speaker 6 (01:49):
Looking me?

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Come come on, you think that.

Speaker 7 (02:01):
A I sure will? Good morning, everybody. Are you listening
to the voice? Come on, dig me now, one and
only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, I got
something for you today. I'm gonna have a conversation this

(02:21):
morning about my understanding of grace now that I've gotten
older and I've come into a better understanding of a
lot of things I didn't know about when I was younger.
This is just my interpretation of grace. Now once again,
y'all listen to me. I ain't nobody's pastor, I ain't

(02:42):
nobody's minister.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
So you know, I'm.

Speaker 7 (02:44):
Pretty sure you can go to church and get a
far more extensive definition of one I'm giving you. I'm
just talking to people.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
You know. Grace is this thing that God provides for.

Speaker 7 (02:58):
Us, and grace is just things that you get that's
really undeserving, you know. I mean, I look in my
life as it is today. You know, Look, I work
hard and I have faith in God that I do
so things are going to happen in my life. But
the way my life is now, I don't don't. I

(03:19):
don't deserve all of this, don't. I don't look at
it that way. I have been the beneficiary of God's grace.
I have aligned myself in a position to accept whatever
grace God has for me, and it will be far
abundant and exceedingly in anything you could think of. His

(03:42):
grace supersedes anything you could possibly imagine. You know, the
goals that I set and the aspirations that I shoot for,
and the things that I have on my dream board.
I have the faith that God will give it to me.
But what He does with grace, he gives you far
more than that. He gives you what He he has
for you, not what you can see. You can't see

(04:03):
all he has for you. It's impossible.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Who are you?

Speaker 7 (04:06):
How can you possibly imagine what he can imagine? How
can you possibly think? How he can think? How can
you possibly do what he can do? How can it
be that isn't a single mind living or a collection
of minds that could have thought of Earth? What in
your wildest imagination could have made you think of Earth?

(04:27):
The stars, the heavens, the oceans, the galaxy, the constellations.
What in your mind? What in any man's mind? We
can point at it and analyze it, but we show
couldn't have thought of it. So come on now, I'm
talking about lining yourself up with God's grace, which he

(04:48):
will give.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
To you if.

Speaker 7 (04:50):
You want some of it now. But now his thing
about grace, it can't be bought. Could if it could
be bought, I'm telling you I would pull all money
I have and dump it into grace, because, after discovering
what it is, it's this goodness that God shines on
you simply as a reward of some type for his

(05:15):
love for you and for you attempting for you attempting.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
To do right, not because you get it right.

Speaker 7 (05:23):
Because if He judged us purely on how we are
the right and wrong of it, we would all be doomed,
all of us, every last one of us would be
doomed because we all fall short, we all make mistakes,
we all sin, we all get it wrong.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
From time to time. Nobody's perfect.

Speaker 8 (05:44):
Man.

Speaker 7 (05:45):
Now I understand what my mother was saying about cleaning
the house. All I want is a little more grace.
All I need is a little more grace when the
last time you ask God for some grace. Now, I'm
not talking to you like I know everything. If you
just benefit from His grace what you already have. But
if you're not aware of it, you don't know what's

(06:06):
going on. Become aware of grace. Get aware of the
fact that God does things for you simply because He
loves you. He does things for you that you don't
even deserve. Somehow, you just wonder how you just got
over when you didn't even do.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
The things to get over.

Speaker 7 (06:24):
Sometimes you don't even know how you got that job
you got when you ain't even really do the things
to get your job. How you end up where you
are all the education you thought you went and got,
and hey, how you end up where you are today
in a much better position than your education could have
ever gotten you. That's grace. How I get every place

(06:44):
I am today. I didn't plan this, Man. If I
could have planned my life the way it is, don't
you know how'd have done it? When I was living
in that car, if I knew how to do it. No,
I benefited from his grace. I'm just a beneficiary of
his grace, of his goodness and his mercy. God's goodness
is better than your goodness. God's goodness is better than

(07:07):
your mother's goodness. It's better than your wife's or your
husband or your boo's goodness. God's goodness is different. His
goodness Man covers some stuff you can't even imagine. So
why are you trying to put your life together when
the last time you asked him for just a little.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Bit of grace?

Speaker 7 (07:28):
When have you thought of your life in terms of
the grace that it has already benefited from?

Speaker 2 (07:34):
Have you ever done that? Man?

Speaker 7 (07:36):
Just thought about you know you hear songs like my soul,
look back and wonder how I got over?

Speaker 2 (07:41):
That was grace, That's all I can call it. Now.

Speaker 7 (07:43):
Like I said, you can go to church or somewherever
you want to, and ministers at the window at school
to teach this thing way better than me. I'm just
giving you from a layman standpoint. Man, have you thought
about his grace? Would you not bewalled to be a
beneficiary of his grace. Now check this out. The better
you try to do, the more grace he'll give to you.

(08:06):
Now that grace can't be bought, Like I said, it's free.
You can't purchase grace. But the better you try to
become the more the more grace he gets to put
your way. So man, just try. Why don't you just
try to do better? Look, man, quit talking aout. I'm
gonna start next week. I'm gonna start at the new year,
now you not, Yeah, you do that every year ever,

(08:29):
at the new year. I wanna eat better at the
new year. I'm or I'm gonna go get in here
and the new year. If you're gonna do it, you're
gonna do it now. Man, you're gonna do it now.
Stop trying do something, do it, stop talking about it,
do it now. The best way to benefit from his
grace is starting action now. N O W now, right

(08:53):
now today, what you're waiting on, all you doing is
delaying his opportunity to bless you.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
You know me, Do you know how many times we
do that?

Speaker 7 (09:03):
We delay his opportunity to bless us by not starting now.
If you gonna get healthy, why don't you start now?
Now you're gonna trip a little bit because the holiday's coming.
But you ain't got to eat bad all the time.
You could start eating correct today, you could. You could,
and then guess what that could be? Some grace on
the end of that. I'm just giving you a little

(09:24):
cheap analogy. But do you feel what I'm saying to you?
Start thinking in terms of grace? What He has done
for you and provided for you that you ain't even
see coming. That you know, you keep calling them blessings,
and I got that. A lot of it us all
it is. But man, have you thought about the stuff
that didn't happened to you you can't account for. For me,

(09:45):
that's been grace and I'm beneficiary of it, and that's
available to everybody that won't sung. Next time you're talking
to him, just check in with grace. See what that is.
That's that's better than money.

Speaker 9 (09:57):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 7 (10:04):
Ladies and gentlemen, I think I have your undivided attention.
Welcome to the number one morning show in the world,
in all of the free world. Now that may be
a communist show that's bigger than this, because they ain't
got but one. I don't know, but in the free

(10:26):
world we're here, Shirley and Carla on this zoom. Take
that stun look off your face for what I just said,
because today is the day that I will put a
stun look on your face several times. So now that

(10:46):
was early. All I said was that I will repeat this.
We are the number one show in the free world
that could be a communist station that's bigger than this
because they ain't got but one and they have to
listen that right there.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
I said, Man, I don't know, why can't be different sometimes?
Or I can? Y'all want the same old thing.

Speaker 7 (11:08):
Good morning everyone, or what y'all would be grateful, good
thing you woke up this morning, that's what you want, Okay, cool, Hey, y'all,
this is the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Another day, another
opportunity to another great chance, another chance that God has
given us to get it right, to start again. And
the fact that He broke you up this morning is

(11:28):
pure joy and a pure stated fact that He ain't
through with you yet. That's the way Shirley and Carler
want me to start this show. So there you go,
and there you have it. But remember this, we are
still the number one morning show in the free world. Yeah,
outside of communist rating.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Thank you. That is all I'm gonna say.

Speaker 7 (11:55):
Charlie Strawberry, Carlin Farrell, Mississippi Monica. My only two supporters
of that ignorance, Julia and the legend that is Nephew Tommy.

stepped out on that ledge of nothings into an abyss.

He was talking with some guys the other day and
they worried because of the conditions of everything that's going on.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Right now in this country.

Speaker 11 (13:00):
And he kept thinking about what if I fail, What
if I lose? What if I dot that dot? What
if I don't get the advantages? What all these all
these things men were asking, and I said, I asked
Uncle Steve Mark, and see what he say to men.

Selena writes, my husband is mad because he cooked a
full Sunday dinner and I took my mom a plate.
He doesn't like my mom and vice versa, and he
said if she wanted to eat, she should come apologize

he say to his mama? I missed that?

Speaker 8 (24:54):
Well okay, so he cooked the dinner. He doesn't He
doesn't like his wife's mom. He doesn't like her, and
she doesn't like him. He said, if the mother in
law wanted to eat, she should come and apologize to

Yeah right, they don't like each other. But I will
tell you this, brother.

Speaker 7 (25:22):
Let me just say this to you just as a man,
if I were you, as he's a strong suggestion, I
would get on the high road if I were you,
and I would get on the high road for the
sake of my wife.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Yeah. See, you're not having a problem with your wife.

Speaker 7 (25:39):

If I were you, I would get on the high road,
and as a man, just take it. Whatever she did
man whatever, bron to sleep with her.

Speaker 8 (25:57):
Question, is the mother, the mother in law going to

Speaker 7 (26:07):
Though you waiting on you held the freeze over you,
he said.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
I want you wain't on. The money just started falling
out the sky.

Speaker 7 (26:17):
No, she's not finna do that, dog, And that's unreasonable
for you to make that a condition. See, we don't
know what happened, how it started. Maybe you need to
be an apology to just just from the standpoint, Hey, look, hey, mom, listen, Hey,
my bad for the way I handled it. Because there's
two it's two people in this. She may have done

(26:39):
something wrong. Let's just say she did something wrong. She
was initiate.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
But Bro, your reaction could have been different too.

Speaker 7 (26:48):
And just as me and man, for the sake of
the family, it is our job to fix it.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
Period.

Speaker 7 (26:56):
Now that's your job. I'm sorry. Man, Go ahead, Tom.
You know everybody say take the higher road.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
They don't. Don't nobody be on that road, that road,
be impact.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Road, that high road.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
There ain't nobody on it.

Speaker 7 (27:13):
And the words of the great musical producer Ricky Miner,
he had a book out that I one of my
favorite titles, ain't no traffic on the extra mile. If
you go the extra mile, ain't no traffic out there.
So yeah, the high road is empty. But that's the

(27:36):
road you gotta take for the sake of your wife.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Man. And that's that's it, all right.

Speaker 7 (27:41):
Moving on to Oh, that's probably why she by herself anyway,
that I just know your hello, she apologized, she's starting
and stuff she messed.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
You don't know already, all right.

Speaker 8 (28:02):
Moving on to Ed and harrisburg Ed writes, some sixty
one and single. My wife died three years ago, so
I'm dating again. I invited a lady over for dinner,
and she asked if I planned to remove old family
photos from my house. I didn't see the pictures as
an issue. Is it best to take my wife's photos down?

Speaker 2 (28:23):
How did he say?

Speaker 1 (28:23):
He was sixty one? Oh yeah, yeah, starting to date again.

Speaker 13 (28:29):
Run.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
He got some polaroids. He got some old pictures up
in there. He got some polaroids.

Speaker 7 (28:35):
They'll come out to camera, he's been saying into until
it came down. He got some he got, Oh, there's
some tributes he got He still got picture frames leaning
up there, all up on the fireplace, you know, And uh,
it's a fair question.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
It is.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
It's a fair question. So what is? What is he is?
What is he? Or she wanting to know what ship?

Speaker 8 (28:57):
Well?

Speaker 2 (28:58):
She?

Speaker 8 (28:58):
She asked him if he plan to take the pictures down,
their family pictures, and he said he didn't see the
pictures as an issue, but is it best to take
his wife's photos down if he's going to be dating
again and having women over here?

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Well, yeah, it is. It is, you know, like if
you have.

Speaker 7 (29:15):
Company come over, I would take them down while they're
over there, and then when they leave you and put
them back up until you get yourself used to it
to see.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Where it's going.

Speaker 7 (29:24):
But just out of respect, don't nobody want to sit
at your house?

Speaker 2 (29:27):
You help.

Speaker 7 (29:30):
I'm just gonna be real with you, you know, because
the whole time I'm sitting there, if I'm over a
woman house and she got her dead husband all around
the place, I'm thinking, I sure don't want to be nuts.
So you know this ain't gonna be a comfortable date.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 7 (29:47):
Think he should just when you come over, out of respect.
He don't see him as an issue. But he's sixty
some years old, he's said, in his way, and he
ain't dated in a while, so right, he don't know
nutt is an issue?

Speaker 1 (30:01):
Yeah, okay, now he does. He should take them down
put him in another.

Speaker 2 (30:06):
He probably don't think that BlackBerry is an issue. You
got a BlackBerry, an iPhone or al.

Speaker 7 (30:15):
And steal text into MySpace. People try to get his aunt.

Speaker 8 (30:20):
All right, Philo, thank you. Coming up at the top
of the hour. We will have some entertainment news for
you right after this.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 8 (30:34):
According to TMZ, Diddy's legal team filed a new motion
for bail and to be released before his sentencing in October,
and their new bail package. Did He's attorneys argue that
the average person convicted of violating the Man Act is
released from custody before he or she is sentenced.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
Did He was found guilty on two charges.

Speaker 8 (30:55):
We know that too, man at counts for hiring mail
prostitutes to have sex with his ex girlfriend. Did He's
attorneys argue he was simply living quote a swinger's lifestyle
with Cassie and Jane. His attorneys say, did He never
had sex with the prostitutes, only his girlfriends did. However,
the judge was more focused on Diddy's alleged violent passed

(31:17):
with his former lovers when he denied his bail. His
legal team acknowledged his assault on Cassie, but they argue
that didt He only got violent after the other victim, Jane,
provoked him. Didt He's bail package consists of a fifty
million dollar bond that uses his estate in Florida as
collateral and will be co signed by three financially responsible people.

(31:40):
He must also surrender his passport and limit his travel
from his home in Miami to the Southern District of
New York. His attorneys are also open to other pre
trial conditions, including home detention, electronic surveillance.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
And more. So that's what they're arguing now.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
You know, they are.

Speaker 7 (32:00):
Correct in that normally that's the case that people are
allowed to go home nothing.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
So I don't know what they're gonna do, you know.

Speaker 7 (32:10):
You know what, y'all, I've noticed there's not a lot
of news coming out about this.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
I really just going away.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
In October.

Speaker 8 (32:24):
Yeah, yeah, And I think the prosecution has until today
to respond to the defense's second request request.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
Right, and they're gonna say the same thing.

Speaker 7 (32:36):
Yeah, They just they don't want him out under no circumstances,
and that's not normally how these matters are handled because
of what.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
He's up for. He's being charged out with.

Speaker 7 (32:49):
The prostitution trafficking thing, the prostitution part, the big stuff
he got was is gone so technical he should have
been home technically, And I'm not pushing forward to anything.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
I'm just saying his attorneys are right, that's what normally.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Happens for a normal case. For the first man.

Speaker 7 (33:14):
Right, absolutely absolutely violating. And you know so I don't
really know, and I can't worry about it because man,
you you can't. I can't put no thought into this
because no vote, I got no say so you know

(33:34):
it ain't me. The only thing in this whole thing
is I feel so badly for them girls, for them kids,
because them girls have to sit there and hear all
of this, the victims and his daughters, them girls have

(33:55):
to sit there.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
They will always know about it.

Speaker 7 (34:00):
Yeah, it's just horrible to have to sit there and
know this about that's going on. Not far as his
children go. It's absolutely horrific for those girls and for
the boys. You know, they can sit up and play
like they rappers and all that. All that's fake. All
that's fake. Your daddy finn't go away. That's the reality

(34:23):
of it. And no matter how cool the loving of
a father you think he is, we made a huge
mistake here, a huge mistake, and and and and and
there's a penalty for that.

Speaker 12 (34:36):
Could you digest all of this if you were her
husband's husband.

Speaker 8 (34:46):
I mean, you knew about it before, everything carried.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Everything, know all that. Well, just like you don't believe
her detail.

Speaker 7 (35:01):
Yeah he knew, he knew enough, Yeah, he knew enough,
and I mean, hats off to him for understanding.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
But you know, man, love is her side. Yes. Love
is different man.

Speaker 7 (35:17):
When you find somebody you care about and then you
support them. When the new allegations come out, that don't
change your love, not not real love, you know it's
staying a little bit. You gotta go okay, oh that's
you making a phone call. Oh okay, Well hey, but look,

(35:38):
you know you was in a bad position and all that.
It's so much, so many levels to that, but kudos off,
hats off to her husband for standing with her because
she Look, we want all men to be forgiven for
everything they do, but then we don't want to forgive
women for stuff they do. And not right there, man,
because you can't. I got the double standards. But man,

(36:04):
when a man does find it in his heart to forgive,
I think it's kudos to that captain.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Yeah, it's very rare, very rare.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
I think it's a big deal. That's what. That's what
we do know. He's not getting out. He's just not
getting that.

Speaker 11 (36:17):
He might know about you about getting you want to
get out, you can't get out. You can get a
new sail block, you can get that, you can move,

All right, nephew, thank you. Subject.

Speaker 8 (56:43):
We could never be more than friends. Dear Stephen Shirley.
I'm thirty seven and I've been married for eleven years
to my best friend. We met in eighth grade and
we've been in love since then. We also had a
lot of We also have a lot of close friends
from the past that we still hang out with. We
went to rival high school, so my wife is not

(57:04):
friendly with some of my female friends. I feel blessed
that she isn't bothered by me hanging with my female friends.
But recently I went too far with one of my friends.
The first time I almost had sex with this friend,
she said if we have sex, she wouldn't stop until
I was all hers. That kept me away from her

(57:26):
for a while, but then I got upset with my
wife in March and I went running to my friend's
house to vent. Just seeing my friend made me cheer up,
and she felt so good pressed up against me.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
When we hugged.

Speaker 8 (57:40):
I got really caught up and we had sex a
few times. She reminded me that if we went all
the way, she was going to become a problem in
my life. I should have heeded the warning that night.
She has not been the same around me and other
friends so I've stopped going out with my homies. I
have given her mon and gifts to apologize for whatever

(58:02):
she might be going through. But I had to stop
sending her things because she might use them against me.
Yesterday I tried to smooth things over to see where
her head is. I told her that we can never
be more than friends. I told her I was not
leaving my wife. She took the news so well that
I'm afraid of what might come next. She has no

(58:24):
reason to be hurt because she knew what was up
from the start. I'm scared for my life and my marriage.
Am I handling this situation with my friend the right way?
Please help?

Speaker 1 (58:37):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (58:38):
So here you go.

Speaker 8 (58:39):
What you did was really, really stupid, and now you
want Steve and I to fix your mess. You admit
it to starting it when you said you went too
far when you almost had sex with one of your friends.
That's what makes you so trifling as a husband, because
you did eventually have sex with this woman, not once,

(59:01):
not twice, but you say a few times.

Speaker 1 (59:03):
So you're gonna get what's coming to you.

Speaker 8 (59:05):
I mean, the friend is holding it over your head,
the possibility that she might tell your wife and you
should be scared because she might Yeah, she took the
news well, but that's yeah, that's dangerous. Are you handling
the situation right? You ask, well, you're giving her gifts
and money and all this stuff, but just like life,

(59:25):
there are no guarantees. You dug this hole, so you know,
you got to deal with the consequences whenning if they come, Steve,
and they're gonna come, you know what, man, again, here.

Speaker 7 (59:38):
We are, here, we are with this opposite sex friendship.
I I don't know how many times. I just don't
know how many times I have to tell y'all this,
But okay, y'all, y'all keep writing in, We'll keep going over.
I don't even know what this information is about. You
wanna tell us you thirty seven? You wanna tell that

(01:00:00):
you've been married eleven years to your best friend. Y'all
met in eighth grade. Y'all been in love every since then.
Some more Houston's information. We went to rival high school,
so my wife is not friendly with some of my
female friends. It's not because of the rival high school.
Nobody's still doing that. She not friendly with your girlfriends

(01:00:24):
because she don't know them. They're not her friends. They
ain't got nothing to.

Speaker 2 (01:00:28):
Do with our high school rivals. You're stupid.

Speaker 5 (01:00:32):
Man.

Speaker 7 (01:00:33):
Here the ignorant part. I feel blessed that she isn't
bothered by me hanging with my female friends. What, brother,
I can't believe you wrote that I feel blessed that
she's not bothered by.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
Me hanging with my female friends. Oh do you really? Okay?
So what are we gonna do in this? Now?

Speaker 7 (01:01:00):
Let's take advantage of the blessing. Let's use the blessing.
Let's let this blessing work for our benefit. I'm so
blessed that she isn't bothered by me hanging with my
female friends. But recently I went too far with one
of my friends. Oh well, let's hear this right here.

(01:01:23):
I'm here, I'm here for this. Let's hear how you
went too far with one of your friends. Because I
got a group of friends that I hang out with too,
and this has never occurred because all my friends is me,
So this has never occurred. The first time I almost

(01:01:46):
had sex with this friend, she said if we had sex,
she wouldn't stop until I was all hers, he said,
And that kept me away for a while. But then
you and your wife had a fall out in March,
and you went running over to your friend's house to vent.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
And then you said, just seeing my friend made me
cheer up.

Speaker 7 (01:02:08):
What is it about your friend that when you see
them it cheers you up. Well, you want to know
what it was. It was her looks, it was her body,
and just seeing my friend made me cheer up. And
she felt so good pressed up against me when we hugged.

(01:02:29):
I ain't never said that about my friend and me
and my homies hug when we see each other, and
now one of them felt good pressed up against my God,
matter of fact, our bodies don't really press up against
each other. It's a really showlder hug. So now already

(01:02:51):
this female prom this is what I'm telling you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
Can't have.

Speaker 8 (01:02:56):
Two of your response coming up Steve at twenty three
minutes after the hour, Today's Strawberry Letter subject we could

Speaker 8 (01:03:45):
All right, come on, Steve, Let's recap today's strawberry letter.
We could never be more than friends.

Speaker 2 (01:03:52):
This letter is so ignorant to me.

Speaker 7 (01:03:55):
Once again, this is a letter about and I have
told you all about these opposite sex friends.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
I've told you about this. I can't count the times.
But here we are again. Thirty seven year old man
been married eleven years to his very best friend. It
was high school sweetheart. They've been in love every since.
But he says that and.

Speaker 7 (01:04:17):
His wife isn't friends with any of his friends because
they went to rival high schools. Okay, that ain't why
she not friends with none of your friends. It's because
she don't know none of them. And then he says,
but I feel so blessed that she doesn't have a problem.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
With me hanging out with my female friends. See that
is a lie.

Speaker 7 (01:04:46):
That's a lie because she don't know what you and
your female friends is doing. So partner, stop stop saying
stuff that's ignorant and not true. Women are not cool
with you and your female friend. They got one out
on you and one out on your.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
Friend at all times.

Speaker 7 (01:05:08):
At all times, homie, because she trying to figure out
is she supposed to be your best friend?

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
What are these other god tombs for?

Speaker 12 (01:05:18):
It?

Speaker 7 (01:05:19):
You tell a woman that she your best friend, then
she gonna wonder what these other female friends is for.
So you said you feel blessed that she ain't bothered
by you hanging with him. And then recently, I went
too far with one of my friends. Oh really, because
I ain't never went too farther with none of my friends,
because all my friends is men.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
Here we go.

Speaker 7 (01:05:43):
First time I almost had sex with this friend, she
said if we had sex, she wouldn't stop till I
was all heard.

Speaker 2 (01:05:49):
Well, that kept me away for a while.

Speaker 7 (01:05:51):
But then one day you got upset with your wife
in March, and when you're running over to your friend's
house vitting, and as soon as you saw her it
felt better. What is it about it? Made you feel better,
and then guess what you said? She felt so good
pressed up against me when we are hug You know,
when I see my homies that I've been friends with
for fifty years, sixty years, when we see each other,

(01:06:12):
we hug, but we don't press up against each other.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
That ain't what we're doing. But you pressed up against
her when we hugged. It felt so good. I got
really caught up and we had sex a few times.

Speaker 7 (01:06:27):
She reminded me that if we went all the way,
she was gonna become a problem in my life.

Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
I should have heeded the warning. How you did it?

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
She told you?

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
Do you know what she said? Listen to me. If
you run up on me and we do and gage,
i'mnna be a problem.

Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
You know what i'd heard.

Speaker 2 (01:06:47):
Listen to me, I'm crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
I'm gonna tell you right now, right now.

Speaker 7 (01:06:53):
I'm gonna bring down your whole fort if you sleep
with me, and the reason you I'm a reason. You
can come over here every time something wrong, because don't
nobody live here. You know why don't nobody live here?
Because everybody found out how I crazed out. Then you
can come over here and get some of this crazy

(01:07:15):
thing if you want to. But when you get it
and I put it on you, I'm gonna put all
the rest of it on I'm gonna be a problem.

Speaker 2 (01:07:24):
But you kept going over there, I should have heeded
the water. Well.

Speaker 7 (01:07:27):
Since that night, she has not been the same around
me and my other friends, so I stopped going out
with my hobess.

Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
What your hobess you're referring to the other female friends
and guys.

Speaker 7 (01:07:38):
Of course, I've given her money and gives to apologize
for whatever she might.

Speaker 2 (01:07:43):
Be going through. She going through what she told you
she was gonna do.

Speaker 7 (01:07:47):
If you come over here and sleep with me, I'm
gonna be a problem, and I'm not gonna stop until
you all mine. And then I've given her money and
gifts to apologize for whatever she might be going through.
But I had to stop sending up things because she
might use them against me. Man, you stupid man. Hey,
hey man, let me tell you something.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
Keating is not what you do. You're not good at it.
You're real scary. You don't know none of the rules.

Speaker 7 (01:08:12):
You ain't set up no guidelines, you ain't had a conversation.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
You just did what the girl told you not to
do you slept with? And she said she was gonna
be a problem.

Speaker 7 (01:08:21):
Now, yesterday I tried to smooth things over to see
where her head is.

Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
I'll tell you where her head is. She crazy.

Speaker 7 (01:08:28):
She told you that I told her that we can
never be more than friends. Brod, You've already crossed the
line of friendship. Why do y'all keep using this term
friends for people that you are more than friends with?

Speaker 2 (01:08:46):
It is so hard to be.

Speaker 7 (01:08:48):
Friends with the opposite sex, especially if there's any form
of attraction. I told her I'm not leaving my wife.
She took the news so well that and I'm afraid
of what might come next. I know how that I
ain't never leaving my wife. She said, okay, you know
good Wall. In the back of her mind, she was going,

(01:09:10):
but what did I tell you? Though, I'm finn to
be a whole problem for you, gone back over that tool.

Speaker 12 (01:09:18):
She has no.

Speaker 2 (01:09:18):
Reason to be hurt because she knew what it was
from the start. No, she didn't.

Speaker 7 (01:09:24):
You knew what it was from the star. She told you,
if you sleep with me, I'm gonna be a problem.
You knew what it was from the star. She gonna
do what she said? She said, she promised you she
was gonna be a problem. That's what she finn to be.

Speaker 1 (01:10:48):
This was a good one. The subject we could never

Speaker 7 (01:10:52):
Okay, let me just bring you up speed real quick.
Here's a man that's been married for eleven years for
this eighth grade level. They've been friends they whole life.
They've been married eleven years. He has female friends. He
keeps saying, I told you all about this, But he
says he feels blessed that his wife don't have a
problem with her female friends because they from rival high schools. Well,

(01:11:13):
the rivalry of the high school is because one of
his girlfriend went to different school than his girl friends
and they don't know each other.

Speaker 2 (01:11:21):
So he says he don't have a problem with that.
But then he got sexually involved with one of his friends.

Speaker 7 (01:11:28):
How because I told y'all, you can't have opposite sex
friends all the time. So but she told him, the
girl told him, if you have sex with me one time,
I'm gonna be a problem, and I'm gonna be a
problem until I have you all to myself. So that
kept him away for a while. Then one night in March,

(01:11:48):
him and his wife got into an argument. He ran
over the girlfriend's house to vent as soon as the
girl opened the door. He felt good about it. Then
when they hugged and her body was pressed against his,
he felt so wonderful. And so then they had sex.
You have sex with your friend. I'd have told y'all
about these friends.

Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
I have friends.

Speaker 7 (01:12:10):
We ain't never had sex. I'll have sex with my
friend were friends. If you're a female, Well I'm not
your friend.

Speaker 2 (01:12:18):
Let's stop this.

Speaker 5 (01:12:20):
I know you.

Speaker 7 (01:12:21):
I'm friendly towards you. I help you if you need anything,
but don't press up against me. Now, I'm just letting
you know. Don't press up against me.

Speaker 2 (01:12:32):
I ain't that.

Speaker 7 (01:12:33):
So anyway, they had sex, and then all of a sudden,
the girl changed around her and her other friends. So
he tried to make up to her and send her
some gifts and buy her some stuff, but she kept tripping.
So finally he wanted to go over there and see
where her head at. But she told you where her
head was. If you sleep with me, I'm gonna be
a proper. So he stopped sending her stuff because she

(01:12:56):
might use him against me. Yesterday, I tried to smooth
things over to see what head was at. She told
you where our head was at. And now your question
is she has no reason to be hurt because she
knew what it was from the start. No food, you
knew what it was from the start. She was gonna
be a problem. Now, he saying, Now I'm scared for
my life and my marriage. What now you scared for

(01:13:21):
your life and your marriage? How crazy is she? She
told you she was crazy. I'm gonna be a problem.
Am my handling this situation with my friend the right way?

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
Bruh?

Speaker 7 (01:13:31):
Quit calling her your friend? She your lover, And she
told you she was gonna be a problem. If you
came up here and y'all got it together, please help. No,
we not gonna help because you don't need no help. Yeah,
you need to stop cheating because you don't know how
it is. She told you up front the rules of
cheating with her. She keeping her word.

Speaker 8 (01:16:39):
All right.

Speaker 1 (01:16:40):
We have time for Khalil.

Speaker 8 (01:16:42):
On Steve Harvey FM, Steve needs some advice, he says,
after being married for three years, I've been told that
I'm now setting a bad example by my wife. Every
other week I have some of my friends over and
we have a poker night in the basement. Of course,
it comes with the expected amount of laughing, drinking, and
noise you'd expect from the fellas on Poker Knight. Now

(01:17:03):
we have a newborn baby, and I'm suddenly expected to
change everything, even though our son is on the second
floor of the house and nowhere near the poker game.
My wife is mentioned on several occasions that my poker
Knight is a bad influence on our boy. Am I
really expected to be a totally different person now that
we have a son? Why hasn't this issue come up

(01:17:25):
before it was such a problem.

Speaker 2 (01:17:27):
Well, y'all didn't have a newborn before.

Speaker 7 (01:17:30):
But I don't see as a newborn how you a
bad influence on the boy because you haven't a poker knot.

Speaker 2 (01:17:37):
I expect all of.

Speaker 7 (01:17:39):
My boys to smoke cigall. I expected all of my boys.
I've taught them all how to get them all were
gonna like Poka Knight. I've set them down and showed them.
I showed them how to shoot dice. I taught my
sons the video poker Roulette Wheel. I taught them Blackjack.
I show they know when they staying hole all that,

(01:18:02):
they know thirteen you'll hit.

Speaker 2 (01:18:05):
I know all that.

Speaker 7 (01:18:07):
So I don't know what you're talking about. You have
really text the wrong person. Is he raising his son
or is he raising a future cardinal? What do you
want in your family? Because we're not Catholic, so you're
not fit to be the cardinal day. Ain't no black
smoke fin to go up over at the Vatican and
all of a sudden they pick you and you're gonna

(01:18:28):
be the black Pope.

Speaker 2 (01:18:30):
You're not finna be that. You're not finna be that.
So you're saying, it's okay.

Speaker 7 (01:18:35):
Yeah, what that got to do with your baby? He
don't know what poker is, all right, that's it a
bad influence, lady. You're going too far with that, dude.

Speaker 8 (01:18:44):
We have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming
up right after them. You're listening to the Steve Harvey
Morning Show. Well, the man clunning to be Jay Z's
son says he's not done going after jay Z in court.
After dropping a lawsuit against jay Z earlier this month,
Ramier satur Ways updated his fans on Instagram and said

(01:19:08):
in part that he's the victim of bully tactics in court,
adding quote, we're sitting back and playing chess, not checkers.
I have not gotten any DNA test. He adds, I
have not gotten any settlement or anything. I wouldn't just
take it.

Speaker 2 (01:19:21):
I want to.

Speaker 8 (01:19:22):
I would let you guys know, even if it was
in Joel's business. You guys have been here for me.
So that's what he's saying. So he's still going after
jay Z.

Speaker 7 (01:19:31):
A little man, little man, little man, pull yourself together. Here,
what money do you think he owe you? See, if
you were never given child support, you ain't in the
rears on child support. You won't take a DMA network,
you have nothing. You cannot go after this man for nothing.
Nothing requires him by law to put you in a wheel.

(01:19:54):
You were not married to him. If you were married
to him, then here comes all types of I want
more and all this here. If your mother was involved,
she could have said I didn't get child supported up
until he was eighteen years old?

fifty four hundred, or visit globelifradio dot com. I guess
that's one eight hundred two five one fifty four hundred
or globelifradio dot com. Here we are guys, our last
break of the day on this Thursday, And yeah, Steve.

Speaker 2 (01:25:18):
Hey, you know something.

Speaker 7 (01:25:19):
I was online and I saw a tribute song to
Malcolm Jamal Warner by R Kelly and I listened to
it and man, oh, man o man, what a great
song man. That song was so powerfully written and it
was written by R.

Speaker 2 (01:25:37):
Kelly. Not listen to me.

Speaker 7 (01:25:39):
I know what R Kelly is in jail for, and
I didn't put him there, most certainly I didn't. I'm
not to judge the jury. It is not my job
to judge people. And I understand how people delve out forgiveness.
If it don't happen to you, it's probably easier to
forgive than it is for anybody else.

Speaker 2 (01:25:58):
I got all of that.

Speaker 7 (01:25:59):
I'm just talking about the song. The song was a
great tribute to Malcolm Jamal Warner, and I thought the
song was so well done. And kudos to R Kelly
for doing that from whatever he is and for whatever
he's in for. And I know that people want to
have it. How could you listen to something that's something? Hey, man,
I got a lot of friends that made lot of mistakes.

(01:26:21):
I had a lot of friends. Now R Kelly and
I were never friends, but that's not my position. I'm
just talking about the song and if you get a
chance to listen to it, it's a good listen. Great
song by R. Kelly for this brother who meant so
much to the culture. Just shout out, okay, Junior, what
you got.

Speaker 2 (01:26:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:26:38):
So I was talking with some fellas man, and we
were just talking about the pressures of stuff, you know,
with the society that we're living in. Everything happened in
this country, and some of the men were just saying, man,
I'm thinking about what if I fail, What if I
lose you know what, I quit?

Speaker 2 (01:26:54):
What if I dot dot dot?

Speaker 11 (01:26:55):
They just kept naming things, and I said, I'm gonna
ask Uncle Steve and see how he talked to men
about these type of situations.

Speaker 7 (01:27:01):
Well, you know, you can what if your way out
of so many situations. You know, whenever I come up
with an idea and I present it to the team,
what I will not allow my team to do is
to come back to me and tell me why it
won't work. I know why it won't work. That's not
why I have the idea. Every idea you come up

(01:27:24):
with is going to have opposition to it. Every idea
you come up with will have the challenges that come
with every idea. Any thought of changing anything is going
to come with an equal and opposite reaction. So when
I go to my team and I say I got
this new idea, I don't need you telling me why
it won't work. I got all that. How can we
make it work? The opposition will present itself anyway. So, folks,

(01:27:49):
if I were you, I would get out of the
what if business because what if business is kind of
like statistics, you know, and what I've learned about statistics.
Statistics is for you losers. Man for statistics off of
people who want to justify when something didn't go their way.
One out of every ten people, one out of a

(01:28:13):
you know, if you play the lottery is one out
of a billion chance, But some when somebody hit the lottery, though,
now what you're looking crazy for? You didn't play it,
but that person took the one out of a billion chance.
It is the chances in life that pay off. If
you never take the chance, that will never be a payoff.

(01:28:37):
You only win when you risk, You only win when
you play the game. You only score when you shoot
the ball. Well, what if I missed the shot. Well,
keep dribbling, then what that do? Just keep dribbling? What
if he dropped the ball? When I throw the touchdown pass,

(01:28:57):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (01:28:57):
Don't throw it.

Speaker 7 (01:29:00):
Just let your receive a run up the field and
never throw the ball. So you don't get an incompletion
on your record.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
But guess what. You don't get no completion either. You
don't get no touchdown. You don't get no celebration, you
don't get no win. Don't get hung up into what
if it don't work? I'll tell you what if you
do not try, if you do not attempt, if you

(01:29:29):
do not move forward. I have one thing I can
guarantee you one thousand percent. I can promise you this.
You will fail. It will not happen. It cannot happen
without the effort. It cannot happen without the risk. Life

(01:29:51):
is risk y'all now.

Speaker 7 (01:29:52):
I know sometimes, man, when you take a chance and
it don't work, you consider that a failure.

Speaker 2 (01:29:57):
I don't.

Speaker 7 (01:29:59):
I consider that and as the lesson I needed to learn,
so when I go again, I can get it right.
Stop looking at every time you fail at something as
a negative. It's a part of the process. Everybody I
know that's a winner has been a loser, but they
just didn't look at it as being a loser.

Speaker 2 (01:30:20):
That's round one, down ding round two. It's a fight.

Speaker 7 (01:30:25):
I was watching on the internet the other day, Sugar
Ray Leonard against Donnie Lalan. I was watching this fight
and this guy knocked Sugar Ray Leonard down. Man, and
Sugar Ray Leonard was on wobbly legs. And I remember
this fight because I said, man, Sugar, go get whooped.
I think the boy was from Canada or something. I
don't know where Donny la Lan was, and it looked bad,

(01:30:47):
but Sugar got up and he kept fighting. Sugar made
one of the greatest comebacks I've ever seen, and he
ended up knocking this boy out. Look, man, if you
don't make the attempt after you get knocked down, if
you don't get back up, you cannot win.

Speaker 2 (01:31:07):
It's when you get knocked down that you stay down,
that you lose.

Speaker 7 (01:31:11):
You knoww many times I've been knocked down in my life, man,
But every time I been knocked down, by the grace
of God, I got up. And you know why I
got up, because I just kept the faith. You got
to operate on faith. Faith is a belief in things
that you cannot see. Yeah, what if it don't work?

(01:31:31):
What if it You ain't got to see it work,
but you do got to go forward though. Don't get
hung up on the what els operate in faith, man
operate on faith. Those are my closing remarks. Hope that
helped you.

Speaker 2 (01:31:45):
God. We'll see y'all tomorrow with another one.

Speaker 7 (01:31:48):
In the meantime, talk to God today, you'd absolutely love
to hear from him.
