Come come on, you'll think that, I sure will. Good

dig me now one and only uh huh. Steve Harby
Man got a radio show.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
M here I do.

Speaker 5 (02:15):
Man. God been so good to me over the years,
in spite of all the mistakes I've made, in spite
of all the dirt I've done to myself. I'm talking
about went in knowing I was wrong. His grace and
mercy has forgiven me for all of my sins. God

(02:37):
can forgive you of all of your sins. Everything you've done,
God can forgive you. He can wipe your slate clean. Now,
might you might have some you know, things you got
to deal with because of some of your actions. Understand that,
But you can wipe your slates. You can wipe your
slate clean with God and start again. You can repent.

(03:00):
God has mercy and grace. You could be forgiven by God.
Now people, AD's another story. Some people may never forgive
you for you've heard them, or or maybe they accusing
you of doing something else. But you know they may
never forgive you. But God, God is in the redemption
business man. God will forgive you for every sin you've

(03:21):
ever committed. But you gotta want forgiveness now and then
you got to come correct because what you can't do
is you can't shoot him the crap. Now, you can
say that conversation with him. You know, whatever you told
your lawyer, whatever you told the victims, whatever you told,
whatever the story is you got going, if it ain't

(03:43):
the truth, you can say that with God, because please know,
he know, and he know your heart. He know if
you're trying to manipulate somebody just for the system, if
you're trying to say this just so you can get out,
He know all of that. So if you're planning on
shucking him and driving him, save your earth before you
wind up digging yourself in a deeper hole. Just let

(04:04):
me give you that piece of advice. Because he ain't
nothing to play with. He's too great to be played with.
And so with that in mind, I want to share
some positive stuff with you this morning.

Speaker 6 (04:13):
Man.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
I want to say this. I want to remind you
not to let your circumstance and your situations dictate your
future or your results. I'm gonna say this again. This
is important information. Man.

Speaker 5 (04:29):
Don't let your circumstance and situations dictate your future or
your results. Do you know that in order to get
a different future or some different results, you control that
entire situation.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
It is you. It is your thoughts that control the
entire situation.

Speaker 5 (04:51):
It is how you look at the situation that will
determine how the situation is for you. See, the same
situation can be told different for two different people, because
you can say you look at the examples of history, just.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Just look look in your neighborhood. How can There was.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
A book that a guy wrote one time who had
the name. He had a name, and he did some
research and he found a god that grew up at
the same age in the same neighborhood as him, with
the exact same name. He went on to become a
corporate ceo. The other man was an inmate, and they

(05:30):
had the same name. Grew up in the same neighborhood.
They were both brothers, you know not, I'm just saying
brothers men. And they grew and they went two different
Because how can two different two people the same situation
and the results turn out so different. It is because
of the thought process of one was completely different from

(05:51):
the thought process of the other.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
You control it.

Speaker 5 (05:54):
You don't have to let your circumstances and your situations
dictate your future or your results. Here's the way it works.
This is so you can understand this. Your mind is
the controlling factor of your thoughts. Your thoughts are the
controlling factor of your outcome. The Bible says a man

(06:17):
is as he thinketh. Please don't short play this scripture here,
because this one is the real deal. This is the
basis of every self improvement book you'll ever read. It's
already written in the Bible. The Bible has all the
information you need. But in case you need a little
bit of clarity in some simple modern day language, then

(06:38):
they have self improvement books.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
They are all based on Biblical scripture. A man is
as he thinketh.

Speaker 5 (06:45):
That's why Norman Vincent Peelee wrote the book The Power
of Positive Thinking. That's why a book came out called
The Magic of Thinking Big. That's why a book came
out called Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon heell all
of you. All these titles that I've read that have
mattered in my life the most, These three major books
that I've read, they all say one thing. Think, thinking thoughts,

(07:09):
because that's what controls the outcome. Your brain works one
of two ways. It works positive or negative. It works good,
which is under the column of positive, or to work evil,
which is under the column of negative. It will have faith,

(07:32):
which is under the column of positive, or you will
operate in fear, which is in the column of negative.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
That is the only way your mind works.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
Your mind is a factory that's comprised of workers. Those
workers are controlled by two foremans, forming positive and forming negative.
But guess what the CEO of the company, the headman,
the boss is you. You come to work in the
morning and you say, man, today is a great day.

(08:06):
I'm going to take steps towards brightening my future. I'm
going to take another step into making that dream come
true that I've been thinking about. I'm gonna take another
step forward in the development and the changing of my life.
In a positive, good direction. If you come to work
and say that every day as the CEO the boss,

(08:27):
the foremans can only obey you, so that what you
just said was a series of positive statements, then forming
positive steps to the forefront. He said, I got your
boss right away. He turns around, He blows the whistle
sh He alerts all the workers in the factory. Today
is a good day. Today we will take steps towards

(08:47):
our future. Today we are putting ourselves on track to
get a little bit closer to making our dreams come true.
Today we will be assembling all the things we need
to make our dreams come true.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
In our life, life better in the right direction. Everybody break.

Speaker 5 (09:03):
The workers in the factory turn around and manufacture thoughts
to justify the orders given by the boss, which is you.
You are the CEO of your corporation. If you don't
own nothing else, you own everything that's going on between
your two ears. You are the CEO of that corporation.

(09:25):
If that corporation is a good one, it's because you
set it up that way. If your corporation is a
bad one, it's because you set it up that day.
If you try and if you pushing towards your dreams,
and you see the possibility of things happening in your
life is because you, as the CEO, set it up
that way. If you ain't got nothing popping, if you
just want to be a criminal taking stuff from people,

(09:46):
throwing your life out the window, you're gonna be an inmate.
You're gonna be sitting there there, and you're gonna be
mad at everybody. You't got nobody be mad at. But
you you understand what I'm telling you this morning?

Speaker 2 (09:56):

(10:27):
simple amazement that God has done it again and again
and again so often that you consider it common.

Speaker 2 (10:36):

Moving on to Maurice and Albany, Maurice writes, I was
out with my cousin and a woman came over and
bought me a drink. She said I was fine, and
I look like I'm a good lover. I'm married. But
I played along until she asked me to have sex
that same night. It scared me, so I stopped talking

(28:26):
to her. Why are some women willing to degrade themselves
like this?

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Hey, bro, bro, you need to stop.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
What's he lying about?

Speaker 6 (28:37):

That's where he drew the line, and he gonna write
a letter in why do women degrade they self?

Speaker 10 (28:51):
Like that?

Speaker 2 (28:52):
She just told you she thought you was.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Fine, fine, because you're fine, baby, And that he looked
like he was a good lover. She said that too.
Can you tell that by looking at someone really? Perhaps
what they do?

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah, I'll tell you one thing. I thought it at
least ninety eight.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Is there one thing that you look for ever.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Moment I've ever dated or walked up to? That's what
I was thinking.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
If not, I'll just make the most of it.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
If she ain't gonna look good laying now?

Speaker 10 (29:38):
But is there one thing that you you know, one
thing that makes you tell be able to tell if
somebody is a good lover?

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Because how do you know by just looking at them?

Speaker 2 (29:50):

Musical Icon that Smokey Robinson has yet another person accusing
him of sexual battery slash assault. This time it's a man, though,
who is accusing Smoky of trying to put his hand
on his private parts. According to Tamz, the accuser cleaned
and detailed Smoky's cars back in twenty thirteen. During this
alleged incident, Smokey walked outside and just his underwear and

(31:01):
made sexual gestures towards the man, and then grabbed his
hand and tried to force him to touch his private area.
The man said he was fired after the incident. The
accuser is now the sixth person to file against Smoky.
According to Yahoo dot com, Smokey's lawyer released a statement
that read, in part quote, the new complainants are part

(31:22):
of the same group conspiring against the Robinsons. He said
that they're laying out these allegations for publicity.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
The lawyer, Yeah, huh, yeah, So that's about I've known
Smoky for years, you know not.

Speaker 5 (31:36):
Here's what I will say if any of this turns
out to be false. This is just me saying, let's
say that nobody validates it. And it goes away. No proof,
lack of proof, no evidence.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
We hope it's false, right, absolutely?

Speaker 2 (31:54):
What happened to them people right there?

Speaker 5 (31:56):
See that's what I want to know, because see, when
you go at a person and I'm not claiming guilt
or innocence here, y'all, so don't don't understand that. But
if you go after person to shake him down for
some money and the shakedown don't work, something need to
happen to.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
You for false allegation, yeah, because you.

Speaker 2 (32:14):

this man's reputation is suffering.

Speaker 10 (38:00):
From our home station v one O three in Chicago,
Chicagoans and people around the country are outraged about a
viral video showing a group of young kids attacking a
mother and her nine year old son while she was
walking him home from school. These kids surrounded the mom,
surrounded the sun, ridiculed them, bullied them, beat them, and

(38:21):
stumped them. The victims were taken to the hospital in
serious condition. Now take a listen to Illinois State Senator
Willie Preston, who recently spoke at a community rally right
outside the school.

Speaker 1 (38:33):
The video is a symptom of something that's been going
on for a long time. We haven't held these kids accountable.
We haven't held parents accountable for the violent actors that
they children.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
They are doing it, that they aware of.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Wow, yeah, this is a problem. That video, that what
we saw.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
Can I see the video because I haven't seen it.

Oh yeah, but this I know, we don't want to
see it. But how old the sun was? Nine? The
sun was nine years old?

Speaker 2 (39:04):
Were talking elementary to junior high.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
Right and there, I mean bullying and yeah, it's been
going on for years.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
Said, yes, that boy's been getting bullied for years.

Speaker 4 (39:14):
And I think the people in the community, you know,
in the area, they are calling for the Chicago Public
school system and the leadership to do a better job
of protecting, you know, the kids, their safety and they're
well being and prioritizing that.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Well, you know, you know, bullying.

Speaker 5 (39:32):
You're right, carl it because bullying is a major issue
at school, always being oh yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
Was bullied at school.

Speaker 7 (39:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (39:40):
Now it's cyberspace creates a whole nother level to it
because they can communicate, organize, meet you to follow this.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
Probably, I don't know what happened.

Speaker 5 (39:53):
Seems like the mother went up to the school for
some reason and was walking the boy home.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
Or something that I don't know, walking home and and.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
And and here that oh you're gonna go get your mind.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
They followed them. They followed them. You see it on
the video. They followed them while walking on a boy
and his mind and his mom. Yeah, yeah, yes, it's unbelievable.
It is unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (40:23):
You have to hold these kids responsible with the actions parents.

Speaker 5 (40:29):
This is parenting, Yes, this is parenting, allowing your kids.
This is the laws we have allowing your kids.

Speaker 2 (40:39):
This is the freedoms we got.

Speaker 5 (40:41):
We gotta shut this down, and we got to do
a better job of policing ourselves in our community.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Yes, because this was ours, this is our community for
no reason. Is disappointing. Yeah, it really really is.

Speaker 2 (40:57):
A lot of it weighs on the parents. To me,
this is walking home. All right.

going to read this one right here, right now, and
you never know it could be yours.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
It could be yours. Buggle up and hold on tight.
We got it for you. Here. It is strawberry letter.

Speaker 10 (56:49):
Thank you, nephew. Subject, my success is intimidating. Dear Stephen Shirley.
I'm thirty seven and never been married. I was in
a four year relationship and when I got promoted, my
boyfriend left the relationship. We met on an online dating
site for professionals, and we were compatible on so many levels.

(57:10):
He is an administrator at his job and I was
a team leader. When we started dating, I wanted love
and he provided that. But he also added a lot
of competition to our relationship. When I get dressed in
the morning to head out to work, he'd say I
looked powerful instead of beautiful, and he would tell me
to boss up if I complained about stress at work.

(57:30):
He treated me like he was my mentor and I
was beneath him professionally, but I actually made more money
than him. Then I got a promotion and a company car,
and he overheard me telling my mom what I'd be
making annually. He insinuated that I was too close to
my boss and that's why I got a promotion. We

(57:51):
argued for days, and then he moved out. Since we
broke up, I've had a few dates, but I haven't
found a man that matches me intellectually or financially. One
guy told me that my success is very intimidating. I
wish men could see my sweet and nurturing side, but
as soon as I tell them what I do for

(58:11):
a living, they decide that I don't have time for
a relationship. I have thought about telling guys that I
have an entry level job, just to see if they
would ask me out again. There are so many sides
of me, and I would hate to have to diminish
all that I am to satisfy a man. My ex
married and art teacher go figure. So are women expected

(58:34):
to bet our eyelashes and act needy to get a husband.
That's true for insecure, controlling men. If you want that
for your husband, they do try to compete with you
and knock you down a few pegs. But you shouldn't
have to dim your light or make yourself smaller.

Speaker 1 (58:52):
For any man.

Speaker 10 (58:53):
A real man would want you to be all that
you can be and would support you every step of
the way.

Speaker 1 (58:59):
He would celebrate.

Speaker 10 (59:00):
Relationships are supposed to be partnerships that lead to marriage
or whatever, and unfortunately a lot of women do dumb
themselves down to get a man. My advice to you
is simply to be yourself. Don't change who you are,
shine brightly, wait for the right man to come along
and to accept you for who you are a strong,

(59:21):
confident woman.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
I mean, the people at your job see it. Why
can't he? Why can't you your ex see it? Steve?

Speaker 2 (59:27):
Real men are not intimidated by women, period.

Speaker 5 (59:32):
Uh huh.

Speaker 2 (59:33):
Real men are not intimidated by women. Period.

Speaker 5 (59:38):
Now, if you're dating an underdeveloped man, that was your pick,
you picked him.

Speaker 1 (59:45):
So listen.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
I understand the narrative that women have created.

Speaker 5 (59:50):
And this is more or less about an open discussion
between me and the ladies on the show, because this
letter is how many times have we heard this that
women live under the guys, or the illusion or delusion
that men are intimidated by your success.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
Now I offer this to you.

Speaker 5 (01:00:15):
Sometimes men are not intimidated, but ashamed. Sometimes men are
not where they want to be and are a bit
embarrassed by it. When they find out that you are,

(01:00:35):
and because it becomes a bit of shame and embarrassment.

Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
But there are so many women that have taken this
and turned.

Speaker 5 (01:00:44):
It into I intimidate them. And I guess that was
a fair thing for you all to say, because it
sounds empowering. But I want to just offer you an
alternative line of thinking. And if you had this alternative
line of thinking, it can help you cope with it. Now, Steve,

(01:01:07):
why women always got the dummy down? And figure this out?

Speaker 7 (01:01:12):
You do?

Speaker 5 (01:01:13):
Wan who wrote the letter in say you want somebody?
I ain't never wrote a letter in and said I
wanted nobody. So now if you want somebody, there's a
game to this. There's some gamesmanship. It's gamesmanship that men
have to play to get you, and you know it.

(01:01:33):
And it's things that you require and you know it.
So when something gets required of you some type of gamesmanship,
you ain't got to get mad at Uncle Steve because
he telling you the game. I'm just trying to help
you with the game.

Speaker 7 (01:01:48):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:01:48):
I could use this letter, which I think I'll do,
but I wanted to say that first so we could
get on the same page. I really want women to
understand this. Y'all met online for professionals, and we were
compatible on so many levels. He's an administrator. I was
a team leader. I wanted love and all this here.

(01:02:10):
When I got dressed in the morning, they had to work,
He'd say I look powerful instead of beautiful. He would
tell me the boss up if I complained about stress
at the work. He treated me like my mentor, and
I was beneath him professionally. You the one went on
this dating site for professionals. That's where you went. You

(01:02:32):
looked for people with similar mind sets. You want a
professional man, but what you oftentimes forget is a lot
of men bring their jobs home.

Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
So that God, that's a professional at work. He tried.
He acted like here a professional at the house too.
Boss up, you look powerful today.

Speaker 1 (01:03:00):
Goodbye?

Speaker 10 (01:03:01):
All right, we'll have part two of your response coming up.
Steve at twenty three minutes after the hour, Today's Strawberry letter,
subject my success is intimidating. We'll get back into it
right after this. You're listening to the Stave Harvey Morning Show.

(01:03:22):
Around the holidays, it's hard to find the right gifts,
but you know it's even harder getting the right gift.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
But get this.

Speaker 10 (01:03:30):
gift bundles. You get the latest phone with a new
line on my plan and a brand new smartwatch and tablet,
and get yourself one two, or you can keep them
all to yourself. No one has to know. Stop by

(01:03:51):
your local Verizon. All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap
today's strawberry letter. The subject is my success is in timid.

Speaker 5 (01:04:01):
Okay, I've told you the way that I want you
all sometimes to consider this, and I appreciate it. I
understand why you say it's intimidating, because intimidating is a
more empowering term.

Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
I give it to you. And you've earned what you've earned,
and you deserve to be where you are, and congratulations.
But a real man is not intimidated by your success. Now,
some men are ashamed of where they are, so there's
a bit of shame when they meet a woman who
has it together and a bit of what do you

(01:04:31):
call it, disappointment in themselves. But if you want to
call it intimidation for the sake of the letter, okay,
so you're intimidating. I'm just off in your way. So now,
but I want to show you something in this letter
that I just noticed you. So you were in a
four year relationship then and when you got promoted, your

(01:04:52):
boyfriend left the relationship. Now you met on an online
dating site for professionals right here.

Speaker 5 (01:05:00):
If you went seeking this type of man, well you
got it. We would compare on so many levels. He's
an administrator at his job. I was a team leader.
When we started dating. I wanted love and he provided that.
But he also added a lot of competition to our relationship. Okay,
you're in the professional zone. Now, that's what y'all do
in corporate America. When I got dressed in the morning

(01:05:22):
to head out the work, he said I look powerful
instead of I look beautiful. He would tell me to
boss up if I complained about stress at work. See,
you meet these professional men, so you think, and they
bring their job home because he thinks that's what you like.

Speaker 2 (01:05:37):
And now that's what he trying to be. Now here,
go to park right here.

Speaker 5 (01:05:42):
He treated me like he was my mentor and I
was beneath him professionally. Whoa wait a minute, now hold up,
Now you either want a man in charge. You want
a man that was shureley you can crown. You want
a man that's a what you want because when he
acts like he you mintor mentor, and then you say

(01:06:05):
I was beneath him professionally, But I actually made more
money than him. Okay, See, you got to make up
your mind now. Oh, because you make more money than him,
he can't tell you nothing. He can't act like he
mentor you. He do know the male side of things

(01:06:28):
that he can offer to you and that you may
not have from female perspective.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
Okay, but actually mailed more money him.

Speaker 5 (01:06:36):
Then I got a promotion and a company car, and
he overheard me telling my mom what I'd be making annually.
He insinuated that I was too close to my boss
and that's why I got a promotion. Oh now he
gonna make you think you slip your way to the tongue.
I understand your ankle. Like I said, systems. You got
your education, you did the credentials, you put your time in.

(01:06:58):
You deserve to be who you gonna be. We arguing
for days, and then he moved out. Couldn't take it
no more because I think he got ashamed of where
you were getting too, and he wasn't because now he
mentoring you getting promotions, company cars, making most salary.

Speaker 2 (01:07:18):
All this help.

Speaker 5 (01:07:20):
Now, since we broke up, you had a few dates,
and I ain't found a man that matches me intellectually
or financially. One guy told me that my success was
very intimidating. I told you, real men, not intimidate that
this little boy you'd have met with all these little
hang ups in his own little life. That's what he
gonna tell you. I wish men could see my sweet
and nurture inside. But as soon as I tell him

(01:07:42):
what I do for a living, they decided that I
don't have time for the liasship. I've thought about telling
guys that have an entry level jug just to see
if they would ask me how to care.

Speaker 2 (01:07:52):
All right, go ahead, try to.

Speaker 5 (01:07:55):
There are so many sides of me. I would hate
to have to diminish all that I am to satisfy
a man. So let me ask you a question. When
you say you don't want to diminish all that I
am just to satisfy man, So are you leading with

(01:08:17):
all this in the conversation? Have you made this a
level of importance to you because you don't want you.
You can't find a man that intellectually matches you or
financially that seems to be a package deal with you.
So now, are you looking for a good man or

(01:08:37):
are you looking for a certain type of man? And
it's okay, you got every right to want what you want,
but in here can be part of the problem because
if you're not just looking for a good man, if
you're looking for a good man with a certain type
of job making a certain amount of money, then get

(01:09:00):
in line, because everybody looking for him. So I'm not
gonna be able to help you because you've created all
of the stereotypes that keep you right where you need
to be. You're intimidating to men. You make more money
than him.

Speaker 2 (01:09:16):
How he met her?

Speaker 12 (01:09:17):
In me?

Speaker 5 (01:09:18):
Okay, I don't know what to tell you. My ex
married an art teacher. Go figure, Well, yeah, yeah he
got he married an art teacher. Go figure, what's see you?

Speaker 7 (01:09:31):
You?

Speaker 2 (01:09:32):
You you throwing me a little bit? What's the matter
with the art teacher?

Speaker 5 (01:09:38):
Oh, she ain't a professional, she ain't a team leader,
or she don't make the money you may Oh, all right, so.

Speaker 2 (01:09:47):
Now you ain't happy what men make all other women.

Speaker 10 (01:09:51):

Speaker 1 (01:14:04):
We'll talk about it right after this.

Speaker 10 (01:14:05):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. This is
from Lucretia on Steve Harvey FM. Lucretia says, I'm hosting
Thanksgiving this year, and I've disinvited my cousin because he's
currently facing charges for armed robbery. Nothing has been proven yet,

(01:14:26):
but it's still a case anyway. His mother, my Auntie,

Hey, listen, guys, have you ever felt like you had
a close relationship with a celebrity or of friendship with
a celebrity even though you've never met them, Then the
friendship you actually have is parasocial, which happens to be
Cambridge Dictionary's word of the year. Parasocial describes those one
sided relationships some people form with celebrities where you feel super.

Speaker 1 (01:19:23):
Connected to them while they don't have a clue who
you are.

Speaker 10 (01:19:28):
The word received a surge of attention on Internet surge
browsers after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey announced their engagement,
and fans felt a deep connection to the couple. So

remarks from the one and only Steve.

Speaker 1 (01:24:40):
Harvey right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey
Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:24:49):
Around the holidays, it's hard to find the right gifts,
but you know what's even harder getting the right gift.
But get this, Verizon's got the perfect solve for both.
They have have incredible gift bundles. You get the latest
phone with a new line on my plan and a
brand new smartwatch and tablet, no trade in needed. You

(01:25:10):
can give a couple away and get yourself one too,
or you could keep them all to yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:25:15):
No one has to know.

Speaker 10 (01:25:16):
Stop by your local Verizon. All right, guys, here we
are our last break of the day. It's been a
good day.

Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
Thank you guys for listening to.

Speaker 5 (01:25:29):
My closing remarks is just basically thank you to everybody
who has supported the Steven Margie Harvey Foundation, who was
at the event last night, Benjamin Krunk for speaking, all
the female speakers, everybody that came, Kim performing a special

(01:25:52):
shout out to Junior for hosting.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
I got some great reviews on Junior's hosting the event.

Speaker 5 (01:25:58):
And I got a lot of calls and stuff about
the event and how effective the young people are who
stood up to speak. And you know, for me, that's
what it's really all about. You can feel how you
want to feel about me. But if somebody can stand

(01:26:20):
up and say that my work, our work changed their life,
that our work gave them a mission, that our work
helped give them the keys to success, that I will
work propelled them to a level of greatness, that's really

(01:26:40):
all I care about. You know, some funny thing about
the internet, because it's not a lot about the gala
that was on the internet. When I do my program
this week, when Marjorie, I mean this year, when Marjorie
does her Girls Rule the World and I do the
Boys Mentoring Camp, it's not gonna flood the internet. That
that be, not a whole lot of blogs picking it

(01:27:04):
up talking about it. It's not gonna happen. Now, let
me go out here and make a mistake. Let me
go out here and do something that's gossipy. Have a
picture of me walking in or out of a strip club.
Oh man, that'll make every blog I'll here be on CNN.

(01:27:26):
Because that's all we care about. It's something that we
can sensationalize and then get on there and make comments
about But if a person, and I'm not just talking
about myself, if a person.

Speaker 2 (01:27:38):
Is doing something good, how come we don't ever Why
we don't blow that up? Why don't we do that?
And yesterday was a rough day for me because I
lost a friend yesterday.

Speaker 5 (01:27:56):
I had only known this guy, this guy for about
four years, and I met him down in Barsville, Georgia,
and he worked on the technical crew. But as he
was doing some internet work for me on my ranch,
I found out that he fished. It's kind of late

(01:28:18):
for me to give him his flowers because he passed.
But he was thirty some years old man with two
little boys eight and ten, and a beautiful wife, and
he had some type of a rare blood cancer and
it had gotten all in his bones. And you know,
I tried to help in ways. You know, I don't

(01:28:40):
want to get into that, but I did what I
thought was the right thing to do. And his wife
text me and said he passed. And it ain't gonna
be a lot of social media about this dude. But
let me tell you something about the dude. He was
a young white guy in his thirties from Barnsville, Georgia,

(01:29:05):
who met a group of all black men. Some of
my friends are seventy years old today in the late
sixties and seventies and have never fished a day in
day life. And because he and I had a fishing
relationship after I learned that he could fish, but he
was doing some technical work around my ranch, I asked

(01:29:27):
him what he come when my partners came to help
him learn how to fish? Every year he was there,
wouldn't miss it, man, and he looked forward to it,
and he loved them dudes. A young white dude was
teaching a bunch of old black men how to fish.
Because it's fifteen of us. I couldn't teach everybody. He
was just helping and he passed. Ain't nobody gonna write

(01:29:52):
about that. That he was a Scout leader. His name
was Scott, Scott Gallagher from bar Georgia. He was a
Scout leader. He had two little boys. This little dude's
This boy could fish so good. I just love the
guy he passed. But he was just a great human

(01:30:13):
being man, just a great human being. But they don't
right about that. But thet cancer and he died. I'm
just taking my time just to say, hey, man, I
miss you.

Speaker 2 (01:30:24):
I love you.

Speaker 7 (01:30:24):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:30:26):
Sorry I couldn't do more. But back to what I
was also saying, we don't glorify people for the good
they do. We castraight people for the wrongs they do.
Oh man, we can't wait to eat you up for
making your mistake. But when you're out here helping people

(01:30:49):
and moving the way you out there moving, and you
out there doing stuff for somebody that ain't even in
your family, when you out there celebrating people, and nobody
got nothing to say about that.

Speaker 2 (01:31:03):
So I just wanted to stop for a moment today
and say thank you for everybody.

Speaker 5 (01:31:10):
Now we're talking about me now, for everybody that's ever
made a contribution to the Steven Marjorie Harvey Foundation, for
every volunteer, for everybody that's ever came down and spoke
to anybody that's ever cared. Man, thank you, thank you,
thank you. Because here's what I've always said. Your career
is what you paid for, but your calling is what

(01:31:33):
you made for. I'm in the calling phase of my
life and I thank God for being that way. I
thank Junior for hosting it last night. I thank Benjamin
Crump for speaking at it last night. I think everybody
who contributed in any way that they can thank you
and let the good work continue. And y'all do me
a favor, right about that, sometime right about that. Sometimes

(01:31:57):
talk to God today, love to hear from it.
