Speaker 5 (00:45):
Yeah, Joy, there.

Speaker 6 (00:58):
You go.

Speaker 7 (00:58):
You know.

Speaker 8 (01:24):
You gotta turn'd to turn the mouth turn.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
You probably got to turn the mouth, turn out, turn
a wad of the morning jup. Wodn't come.

Speaker 8 (01:57):
Come out?

Speaker 9 (01:58):
You're thinking?

Speaker 10 (01:59):
Got it?

Speaker 11 (02:00):
Uh huh? I sure will. Good morning everybody. You all
listening to the voice, come on, dig me now, one
and only. Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man got
a radio show because God is in a blessing business.
I just happen to be a recipient. I just happened
to got a couple of things right, and man, his

(02:26):
grace and mercy carries you the rest of the way.
All you got to do is get a couple of
things right, and then his grace and his mercy will
take over his favor, his love of you. It's already evident.
I mean, you know, because so many times we go
along without even acknowledging him or conferring with him in

(02:46):
our decisions. And we look up when we find ourselves
in a predicament and he always comes, comes to the rescue.
He always manages to show up. He's never too late,
he's never one minute too late. And so in light
of this today I wanted to talk to you about something.

(03:09):
It's another principle of success that I'd like to share
with everybody this morning. And once again, these are not
things that you don't know or you've never heard before.
These are just reminders along the way. And one of
the things you have to be conscious of is don't
be afraid to change. Don't be afraid to change because

(03:32):
change is coming anyway. See, I have a theory, don't
be afraid to change because change is coming anyway. You know,
everything changes, nothing remains the same nothing, and change is inevitable. Now,
you could participate in the change, or you can react

(03:53):
to the change. Are you following me. You can participate
in the change or you can react to the change.
But don't be afraid to change because change is coming anyway. Now,
what I mean by that is this, in participating in
the change or reacting in the change, there is a difference. See,

(04:18):
if you react to the change, that means the change
has occurred and now you have to make the necessary
adjustments to the change. Example, the boss walks in. You
think your job is good. The boss walks in and
hands you a pink slip. That right there, that's a change.

(04:39):
Now you didn't participate in this change because you didn't
ask for the pink slip. But now you've got to
react to the pink slip. Whenever you have to react
to the change, it's an adjustment period. It almost throws
you off. So change is going to come it all

(05:02):
you could participate or you can react. Or let's say
your boss comes in and hands you the pink slip
and you said, you know what I've been preparing for
this day.

Speaker 9 (05:17):
Always knew nothing.

Speaker 11 (05:18):
Last forever, I've been working on the sideline on the
business idea I had, and I had or I had
several other applications in around town. I was just holding
off to see what was going going. So when they
hand you the pink slip, the transition, the adjustment you
make is a lot more smoother transition because now you

(05:39):
just transition into your new business idea that you've been
working on. Are you transitioned into the apps you already
had in or the contacts you made the preparation for
when the day they come in hand. You the pink slip. Well, Steve,
what did they surprise you with it? This is just
one example I'm giving you. So you know, let's let's
not nick pick the message. So what I'm saying to

(06:01):
everybody is don't be afraid to change, because change is
coming anyway. So many people are stuck in a rut
because of our refusal to change. I was hell bent
on a certain thing going a certain way, and this
is how it was gonna go. Well, that that I

(06:22):
was thinking didn't really fit. Now in my own personal experience,
this may not be yours, but in my own personal experience,
the things that I've had the most trouble letting go
of was something I wanted when I line myself up
with the will of God to ask God what he
wanted from me. You understand, those things came a lot

(06:47):
more easy to me because it was in the will
of God. It was what God wanted me to do too. Okay,
see what you mean by that? Okay, here we go.
When things were going wrong in relationships for me, what
I did was the biggest mistake I've ever made, was
I attempted to fix what was wrong in my relationship

(07:11):
outside of the relationship. You feel me. Okay, So I'm
out there working my groove like I want to. Well, now,
guess what, there's the cause and effect for all of
that too. Your house ain't gonna get better.

Speaker 9 (07:27):
It can't.

Speaker 11 (07:29):
And then that lays room for some other things. And
so now when the change come, guess what I got
to react to it. Now, I gotta, I gotta, I
gotta have a reaction to it. Had I lined myself
up in the will of God, the transition may have
gone differently. It could have still ended the relationship. But

(07:52):
guess what, some of the pain I was in I
ain't had to go through. I bought a lot on myself.
Sometimes you're pursuing a passion of yours, and what God
really wants you to do is pursue your gift. So
now you're pursuing your passion. Right, you're passion about golf.

(08:13):
You love golf so much. You just determined, But now
you're to messed around. You ain't made it on the
PGA tool yet, and you forty five, still talking about
I'm gonna play on the PGA Tour. Really, okay, maybe
you ain't as good as this you think, or maybe
you're not as gifted as you think. Maybe you're pursuing
a passion. Sometimes, man, we have to change and we

(08:35):
have to ask God what is his will? His will
is much simpler. It's a simpler rule. Not going to
be easier, it's simpler. See when I wake up. Now,
it's simple for me to wake up because I know
that are few things that I have to do. I
have to click this mic on. I have to be positive.

(08:56):
I have to be inspirational. I have to be informative.
I have to be uplifting. Got it, That's what he wants.
All I got to do is sit down, close my eyes,
ask God to help me be who he want me
to be. And for the most part, he tell me
what to say. Now, guess what he's done though, to
create this in me. I went through enough things in

(09:19):
my life. I had enough challenges. I made plenty of mistakes.
So now at my age, I can turn around and
tell somebody listening to me, Okay, this is what I did.
This is a mistake I made. Maybe you see yourself
in this story right here. Maybe you don't have to
go this way, or this is what I've learned about
becoming successful. Here's a principle that I learned. But then
guess what, I had to be unsuccessful to get it though,

(09:42):
didn't I? So you can't have a testimony without a
test Change is coming, It's inevitable. You can participate or
you can react. I much prefer to participate in the change.
All right, let's go.

(22:12):
the top of the hour. In entertainment news, rather than Trump,
Pat McDonald's delivered to the Oval Office, a former Michigan
inmate won over three hundred million dollars in a lawsuit
against a prison, and a woman is overpaid twenty thousand
dollars as she and she refuses to.

Speaker 7 (22:29):
Pay it back.

Speaker 14 (22:30):
We'll talk about all of these stories at the top
of the hour, but now it is time to ask
the CLO our chief love Officer, Steve Harvey. Here we
go with April and Toledo. April writes, I was messing
with the married man and his wife knew about me.
It was weird because she'd call him and he would

(22:50):
tell her that he was with me. She seemed a
little Craig Cray, so I left her man alone. What
kind of wife accepts her husband cheating? Who does that?

Speaker 11 (22:59):
The same kind of woman that cheats with a woman's husband. Yeah,
that's all there. What kind of woman except that, say,
what came? What kind of woman accepts the married man?
I mean it's it's the same chick. You ain't no better.
So that's all you know. And I'm not judging. Everybody

(23:20):
lived their own life to consentual adults do what they
want to do, So it's not in judgment. I don't
I don't care, but just don't call here expecting me
were gonna get on the ball. Yeah she Cray crag No, No,
you Craig Cray too.

Speaker 7 (23:33):
This is a wide open marriage right here.

Speaker 11 (23:36):
Yeah, but see you ain't see how crazy he was.
Now I'm here with her, do that. I know where
is food come from? Yeah, but you know that's what
happens to a lot of women.

Speaker 9 (23:50):
Women blame each.

Speaker 7 (23:51):
Other instead of blaming the man.

Speaker 9 (23:54):
You mean man.

Speaker 11 (23:55):
The man stood up there and said them, viows with you.
That lady don't know you.

Speaker 14 (24:00):
But she was smart to get out though she was.
Stop doing that, all right. Moving on to Calvin and Flint,
Kelvin writes, one of my grandmother's friends, my grandmother's friends, has.

Speaker 7 (24:13):
Flirted with me for years.

Speaker 14 (24:15):
She's got a lot of money now that her husband
has passed away, and she invited me over for dinner
and winked at me. I am curious, but I don't
think I can do It would be a bad idea.

Speaker 11 (24:27):
Yeah, I was gonna take you way right now, homie.
That's something I ain't never did. But I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 9 (24:32):
If it's your friend's grandmother, not her mama.

Speaker 7 (24:36):
Right the grandmama, it's different.

Speaker 9 (24:38):
I'm gonna just say this Hill.

Speaker 11 (24:41):
Not that I have any experience with that, because I don't,
But I will say this though. What I was in
the dressing room one time, getting helping my wife with
some stuff, and the old lady was trying on some
clothes and when iut handing the dress in that.

Speaker 9 (25:00):
Pole failed mm.

Speaker 7 (25:03):

didn't know. I just didn't know.

Speaker 9 (25:20):
I didn't know.

Speaker 11 (25:22):
I had heard what gravity do, but I had never
seen it.

Speaker 9 (25:27):
But gravity is gangster.

Speaker 7 (25:32):
Real.

Speaker 9 (25:36):
I'm just saying right there, all money ain't good.

Speaker 11 (25:39):
Money, home.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Lady, all right.

Speaker 14 (25:48):
Moving on to Janelle in Miami, Janelle writes, my ex
husband bought me a dog before our divorce. In the
divorce he has for the dogs three beds, the doggie stroller, blankets,
and a designer leash. He didn't ask for the dog,
just his belonging. Now he's suing me for all of

(26:08):
the stuff. Do I stoop to his level and go
to court or return the dog stuff to him?

Speaker 11 (26:14):

We're going to move on to a Detroit federal jury
who awarded a former Michigan inmate. His name is co
Chief Jackson co Chief Jackson Coach exactly. Co Chief was
awarded three hundred and seven million dollars three hundred seven
point six million dollars to be exact for the severe

(32:38):
medical neglect he endured while incarcerated. Mister Jackson's lawsuit accused
the prison medical contractor of denying him a necessary hernia
surgery for over two years, which forced him to live
with a leaking waistebag in jail. Mister Jackson testified in
court about the degrading condition he lived through and told
the court that he was treated like an animal, which

(33:01):
was reportedly a major factor in the jury's decision. Jackson's
verdict highlights significant issues surrounding private medical care within Michigan prisons.
Jackson was serving time for assault with the deadly weapon.
But he's out now. Yeah, three hundred and seven, Yeah, richer.

Okay, here we go, one hundred million cash, non taxable.
You cannot talk for two straight years. I said, you

Speaker 1 (34:52):
I'm talking about.

Speaker 7 (34:54):

Yeah yeah, yes, be out there just fishing.

Speaker 9 (35:43):
All right.

Speaker 7 (35:43):
Finally, here we go again.

Speaker 14 (35:44):
Another company is overpaid an employee and now expects for
the money to be returned. This time it happened to
an Arkansas woman who was facing felony theft charges after
she allegedly kept close to twenty thousand that her employer
accidentally paid her. It's a black female employee, of course.
She was supposed to earn sixteen fifty an hour as

(36:08):
an aid at a senior living facility, but authorities say
a payroll glitch paid her one thousand, six hundred and
fifty dollars an hour for a twelve hour shift. When
the error was identified, her employer asked her to return
the money. The woman, he first, refused to return the
money and told the officers quote, it was her come up. Okay,

(36:30):
it was her come up. She could wind up in
jail though, So here's a question. Would you go to
trial and risk being sent to prison over twenty thousand dollars?

Speaker 11 (36:40):
Not twenty now not going. I understand where she's coming from, right,
because if you had sixteen dollars an hour, they're twenty
thousand dollars a game changing.

Speaker 14 (36:48):
Yeah, it's her come up, like she said, yeah.

Speaker 11 (36:52):
Well what she should have did was just denied knowing
anything about it.

Speaker 14 (36:59):
Yes, no, nah uh, all right, guys, thank you coming
up at twenty minutes to after the hour. It is
April fifteenth, and the federal tax filing deadline is today.

Speaker 14 (37:57):
Taxpayers, the federal tax deadline for twenty twenty five my
returns is indeed today, Wednesday, April fifteenth. This is the
last day to file your return and pay any taxes
owed by midnight tonight. If you need more time to

fifteenth of this year by filing the request by midnight

file your taxes, not more time to pay your taxes. Okay,

fifteenth to avoid those penalties. Now, if you have questions

Speaker 9 (44:15):
All right?

Speaker 7 (44:16):
This next one is from Ken for you.

Speaker 12 (44:18):
Steve.

Speaker 14 (44:19):
Ken says, Hey, my man, Steve Harvey. I'm reaching out
because I heard you say something that hit me hard.
You said, the world took everything from you, and you
still found a way back. I'm in that place right now,
and I don't know how to come back this time.
I listen to you often, and your story has pushed
me to keep going more than you know. But right
now I'm asking directly, how did you find the strength

(44:43):
to start over again when you had nothing left. I
don't need fame or anything big. I just want to
get back on my feet, be a good dad.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
Wow.

Speaker 11 (44:52):
Here is one thing you have to do. You have
to secure, formally initiate a relationship with God. That is
the only way back. That's the way I got back.
See my problem what created me the need to get
back was I had walked away from me. I started

(45:14):
handling that on my own. I started making my own decisions.
I wasn't confiding to him, I wasn't conferring with him,
I wasn't seeking counsel.

Speaker 9 (45:23):
I got this, you know.

Speaker 11 (45:24):
But God gives us the power of choice, and the
choice I made was to handle it, and he said, okay,
go ahead. Then when I messed it all up and
they took everything from me, I was sitting there in
a position where I had no way. I didn't even
know how to come back. But the thing about God

(45:45):
is the Lord knows how to come back. You can't
fall in the hole too deep. God can't come get you.
Who preach. Brother, I'm telling you you have got to
formulate a relationship with God. That he is, that he
got the answer to everything. He can get to you
when nobody else can get to you. You think I'm

(46:05):
getting to you. He sent me.

Speaker 7 (46:07):
Amen to that.

Speaker 14 (46:09):
Coming up next, the nephew, We're gonna switch gears and
go to the nephew with today's prank phone call. Right
after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show
coming up at the top of the hour. Guys, it's
my Strawberry letter for today, and the subject is is
it in security or control. We'll get into that find

it could be yours.

Speaker 11 (56:39):
It could be yours. Buchael up and hold on tight.
We got it for you. Here it is Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 7 (56:44):
All right, nephew, thank you. Subject? Is it in security
or control?

Speaker 10 (56:48):
Here?

Speaker 14 (56:49):
Stephen Shirley, I'm forty four and I've been in a
relationship for four years. Our love life is phenomenal and
the passion is out of this world. Now when I
tell you my my baby has dropped dead gorgeous, I
feel that I am being modest.

Speaker 7 (57:04):
She's absolutely stunning.

Speaker 14 (57:06):
When we first started dating, I cut out communication with
my exes, and I even distanced myself from my female
classmates and college friends that my girlfriend was uncomfortable with
I did not. I did that to make sure my
girlfriend felt secure in our relationship. But the problem is
all of the unnecessary attention that she gets on social media.

(57:27):
Men are always trying to shoot their shot in her
DMS and in comments. We don't post each other on
social media, so the men don't know she's in a relationship,
and females don't know I'm in a committed relationship. I
delete comments from women that are out of line in
my comment. My girlfriend doesn't. She said, there's nothing she
can do about the reaction she gets. It's the kind

(57:49):
of pictures that she posts. They are inappropriate for a
woman that has a man. I have changed the way
I do things, but she won't. I shower her with
that admiration, and so she should need to get attention
from men online.

Speaker 7 (58:04):
I must be.

Speaker 14 (58:05):
It must be how she gets her confidence. The final
straw for me is an ongoing dispute we're having about
me going to my class reunion because my longtime ex
girlfriend will be there. My girlfriend said, if I go,
she will have to reevaluate our relationship. This is not
fair at all. She can do whatever she wants with
her male friends and strangers on social media, but I

(58:26):
can't hang out with females from my past. Please make
it make sense. Is it insecurity or control? I'm just
a little confused with this letter because I'm not sure
exactly what you want here. I mean, what are you
trying to do because it sounds like you're the controlling
one or the insecure one. You don't like the attention

(58:47):
she gets on Instagram. Her pictures are inappropriate, you say,
men are always trying to shoot their shot, and she
doesn't delete the comments from the men who are out
of line. You know, these days, everybody's posting their partners.
You know, everybody's posting their personal business. It's the norm.
I mean, so she's posting you post too. You guys

(59:09):
just don't post as a couple, and maybe that's the problem.
What do you guys, I mean, what do you think
they're gonna do. They're gonna like your posts if they
don't know you're together, and even if they do, they're
gonna do it. You're both single. That's what they think
now is she doing too much. I don't know, but
maybe she is. And like you say, she can't do

(59:31):
anything about the reaction she gets. She says that, after all,
didn't you say she was stunning?

Speaker 7 (59:37):
Well?

Speaker 14 (59:37):
I say you both need to stay off social media
for a while. You need to reevaluate your relationship, like
you said, after four years? Are you taking her to.

Speaker 7 (59:47):
Your family reunion?

Speaker 14 (59:49):
I don't understand this because you guys don't act like
you're together or something. You know, where are you going
with this? Is there a future in this relationship at all?

Speaker 11 (59:58):
Steve surely's right about this. This is a letter of
total confusion. For first of all, you forty four?

Speaker 9 (01:00:07):
What now?

Speaker 11 (01:00:09):
You see?

Speaker 9 (01:00:10):
This is what I hate when people.

Speaker 11 (01:00:11):
Describe something so wonderful, then all of a sudden they
take a turn. I've been in a relationship for four years.
It is phenomenal. Oh my god, Oh the passions out
of this world.

Speaker 9 (01:00:24):
It's just whooa. We can't keep our hands off each other.

Speaker 11 (01:00:27):
And when I tell you my baby is drop dead gorgeous,
I can't. I can't explain it to you no better
I feel, and I feel like I'm being modest here.
I ain't even telling it all it's so much to
how fine she is. There are no superlatives to fit
the gloriousness of this woman. Oh my lord, she's stunning.

(01:00:54):
So when I first started day now, I cut off
communication with my exes, herself, from a female classmate's college friends,
anybody your girlfriend was uncomfortable with, you just cut them
all out. But the problem is all of the unnecessary
attention that she gets on social media. Men always trying

(01:01:15):
to shoot they shot in her DMS in their comments.
We don't post each other on social media, so men
don't know she's in a relationship, and females don't know
I'm in a committed relationship. Okay, then there's the problem.
Like Shirley said, everybody, thank y'all single, you know, and
she likes getting their attention and the comments and all
this here that matters to her. It's obvious. But you

(01:01:38):
having a problem with it now? Now you delete the
comments that women put in yours that are out of line.
But my girlfriend don't, she said, ain't nothing she could
do about the reactions she'd get. But it's the kind
of pictures she posts. Now, let's see here what we

(01:01:59):
talking about?

Speaker 10 (01:02:00):
What?

Speaker 11 (01:02:00):
What did you? What is she posted. She looking back
over her shoulder at it.

Speaker 10 (01:02:07):
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:02:09):
It's her mouth open when she looked back at the picture.

Speaker 11 (01:02:14):
Yeah, yeah, she got her chein up in there with
her frank in her mouth. You know that picture is
she sitting there just a little bit too wide legga,
just sitting there just a little bit too wide ligger.
I'm just asking the question, you think these pictures is inappropriate?

(01:02:37):
She getting these comments a man, and you think that
she posts pictures that's inappropriate for a woman that has
a man. But y'all don't tell nobody. Y'all got each other.
It's been four years. What are y'all going with this?
Does this relationship have a future?

Speaker 9 (01:02:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (01:02:58):
Right you'll find out, but we.

Speaker 14 (01:02:59):
Can't hang on Steve. We'll have part two of your
response coming up. Today's Strawberry letter subject is is it
insecurity or control? We'll get back into it right after this.
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
Do you ever notice your floors still look dirty even
after you mop? Power mop gives you a deeper clean
you can see and feel. Unlike stream mops sweart for
power mop absorbs more dirt and locks it away even
and hard to reach places like.

Speaker 1 (01:03:34):
Behind the toilet.

Speaker 3 (01:03:35):
The new micro scrubbers deliver thousands of tiny deep cleaning
actions for results that look, smell, and feel clean. No
more dirty floors. Try the swift for power mop, love
it or your money back.

Speaker 14 (01:03:48):
All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's strawberry letter.
The subject is is it insecurity or control?

Speaker 11 (01:03:54):
This is a part of you old man that's dating
out of his lead, that has woman that is so fine.
He can't believe his luck. He thinks he's lucky, and
you should feel that way about your girl. That's not
the problem. But she's so stunning and so wonderful. Now,
when they started dating, he cut off communication with all females,
college classmates, from a friend's excess, everything, anybody she was

(01:04:18):
uncomfortable with, she cut him out.

Speaker 9 (01:04:22):
The problem is.

Speaker 11 (01:04:25):
They going on social media, but they don't post each
other on there, so everybody thinks they single. And you
think that she's posting pictures that's inappropriate for a woman
that's in a relationship. What she getting all kind of comments,
low remarks and me and sliding in her dms and

(01:04:45):
all of that, and you just think it's inappropriate for
a woman that's got a man.

Speaker 9 (01:04:50):
Now you change the way you do everything.

Speaker 11 (01:04:53):
But you think that she needs this attention, and you
don't understand because you shower her with affection in admiration,
but you think that the comments that she getting online
is maybe how she gets her confidence. Now, the final
straw is they have an ongoing dispute where they have
about him going to his class reunion, and that's because

(01:05:17):
his long time ex girlfriend will be there. Your girlfriend
told you, ms Hottie told you that if you go,
we gonna have to reevaluate our relationship. That is not
fair at all. This is what he said. He forty four.

(01:05:38):
She can do whatever she wants with her male friends
and strangers on social media, but I can't hang out
with females from my past. Well, you did say you
cut them all loose, you stop communicating with him, You
did say that. But you want this one exception so
you can go on back to the class reunion.

Speaker 9 (01:06:00):
How about this right here?

Speaker 11 (01:06:01):
Why don't you take her to the class reunion with you? See,
don't nobody want to take their mate to the class
reunion because then especially dudes, cause then you don't get
to lie like you want to cause she's standing right there.

Speaker 9 (01:06:16):
Yeah, all got two businesses.

Speaker 8 (01:06:18):
Now, yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:06:20):
You work down at the hardware store. Hell see you don't.
You don't need that, So I don't know what you
should do. Well, y'all do No, I can't say that.
Here's the other problem. She then said, if you do
go down there, you're gonna have to reevaluate y'all's relationship.

Speaker 9 (01:06:39):
I think you need to reevaluate it anyway.

Speaker 11 (01:06:42):
Because if you cut make all these cutback, and she
ain't making none. Have you ever bought that to her attention?
But if you don't go, what's that saying? And the
real reason you want to go is why? See, y'all
gotta have some honest conversation with yourself. You really want
to go to this ten year reunion? Why so they
can see you and you can see them. She said,

(01:07:08):
if you go down there, we're gonna have to reevaluate
things because your long time ex girlfriend is gonna be there. Now,
you say this ain't fair because she could do whatever
she wants with her male friends and strangers on Okay,
so she kept all her male friends, you gave up
all yours, but she kept her and strangers on social media.

(01:07:28):
But I can't hang out with females from my plas.
Please make it make sense. Is it insecurity or control? Well,
it's definitely controlled. She ain't insecure about how she looks.
She flowers and she all over the ground. Okay, so

(01:07:48):
hey man, listen, y'all really too.

Speaker 8 (01:07:52):
Old for this.

Speaker 11 (01:07:55):
I'm gonna just be honest with your funnies. I don't
know why y'all dealing with this one here in this
world we are in now, we are in the world
of look at me, see me, feel me? Won't me
beating me? That's the world we in. And she enjoys
getting all these comments, she reading them. That's why she

(01:08:18):
don't delete them, because she want other men to see
what other men is saying about her, so that you
can be in competition. She don't mind the DMS. She
like all that. It's for her ego. Man, now she
needs her ego faed that way outside of you. Then
you're gonna have a problem with her no matter where
this relationship going. Now, it's been four years. How y'all

(01:08:44):
doing now? Where y'all work at? What y'all got y'all
y'all got a plan or y'all putting money together? For
some reason, or you're discussing families, kids anything. You forty four, brother.

Speaker 9 (01:08:55):
You you've been.

Speaker 11 (01:08:57):
With this woman forty and the love is phenomena alone.
At forty four, four years of this, you ought to
be ready to lock it in. But I ain't heard
nothing about that. You ain't even said you're in love
with her. But if you go to that class reunion,
we're gonna have to reevaluate our relationship. Unless you all

(01:09:20):
have something y'all working towards. Why don't you just let
it go? You going down there to the family reunion,
then y'all reevaluated? Wow, or take her with you? That'd
be the coldest flex pull up with the big five
thing on your own, you know what I'm saying. Other

(01:09:43):
than that, that's really it for this letter right here.

Speaker 7 (01:09:45):
Yeah, what are you doing? You're right?

Speaker 9 (01:09:49):
Just where is it going?

Speaker 7 (01:09:51):
Let her re evaluate going down the man all right
after four years?

We're not doing that.

Speaker 7 (01:13:51):
Thank you, Junior, Thank you.

Speaker 14 (01:13:54):
Coming up at the top of the hour, wife can't
figure out why her husband has checked out him marriage.

Speaker 7 (01:14:00):
We'll get into that, find out what's going on.

Speaker 14 (01:14:02):

Speaker 7 (01:14:10):
This is from Leanna in Baltimore.

Speaker 14 (01:14:12):
Leanna says, I have been married for eight years and
I love my husband, but he appears to be checked
out of our marriage. We don't have any children, so
it's just us all the time, and he doesn't talk
to me unless he needs to. We have sex once
a week, and it's not passionate like it used to be.
He doesn't go out, he's not over on his phone,

(01:14:32):
he's not ever on his phone, and he never uses
his Facebook account. If he's having an affair, it must
be at his desk in his office at work because
all of his time is accounted for. When I ask
him if anything is wrong, he says no, and he
tells me that I'm perfect. Why won't he tell me
what change with him?

Speaker 11 (01:14:51):
Which y'all should have been talked about this, because lady,
you don't know this.

Speaker 9 (01:14:57):
You know you probably haven't paid attention, but you've changed too.

Speaker 11 (01:15:01):
And what happens is when you're not in constant communication
like y'all, married people have to sit down at least
minimum every six months to have the real heart to
heart about what's going on? What do you want? What
do you like now? What if you stop doing? What
if I stop doing? What do I want now? Who
am I now? Because everybody changes, You're not the same

(01:15:22):
people you are when you get married. So with the
person that you change into, the two people that y'all
turn into, y'all might not even like each other no more.
Next thing, you know, you're sitting up over there and
the person you married who is different and you different,
and them two people now they don't even like each.

Speaker 1 (01:15:41):
Other the other.

Speaker 9 (01:15:43):
Junior, close your mouth. Don't close your mouth.

Speaker 7 (01:15:47):
Why are you saying that now?

Speaker 11 (01:15:48):
Because I've seen you? He over there breathing that end.
He got a question about that. But you know how
long you married now, Junior? Are four years?

Speaker 9 (01:15:58):
Yeah? See, y'all to a different too.

Speaker 14 (01:16:01):
Congratulations Junior, first of all, But are you trying to
make this about Junior?

Speaker 11 (01:16:07):
I'm just saying I could tell by the look on
his face, the eyes squint, then he starts showing his
mouth open.

Speaker 12 (01:16:12):
People, you're gonna change me different people, now, that's what.

Speaker 11 (01:16:14):
Yeah, you and your wife are different than you were
four years ago.

Speaker 7 (01:16:18):
Yeah, absolutely grown, haven't you, Junior? You feel like you've grown, right?

Speaker 12 (01:16:23):
I think?

Speaker 16 (01:16:23):
So?

Speaker 9 (01:16:24):
Have you grown or grown apart?

Speaker 10 (01:16:26):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (01:16:27):
Great, that's a question. It's just it happens.

Speaker 13 (01:16:33):
I've never heard of people say that. That's why I
was shocked. I've never heard of put like that.

Speaker 11 (01:16:38):
Yeah, well, I mean that's what it is, though, mm hmm.

Speaker 12 (01:16:41):
Move on.

Speaker 9 (01:16:43):
You all have turned into two different people, and you
might not like each other.

Speaker 7 (01:16:46):
Yeah, she's just thinking it's him.

Speaker 9 (01:16:48):
Though, No, it's her too. It's her too. You've changed, lady,
is it?

Speaker 11 (01:16:53):
Don't? Don't just think it's the man.

Speaker 7 (01:16:56):
Everybody changes, no passion, none of that.

Speaker 11 (01:17:01):
And everybody's appearance has changed. Okay, you tell.

Speaker 3 (01:17:06):
Him shorty, right baby, that's my husband, right baby?

Speaker 14 (01:17:26):
Yeah, because it sounds like you just kind of you're
just blaming her, but okay, no, we're both them. Yeah, okay,
well she's just asking about him, all right, moving on to.

Speaker 11 (01:17:36):
Uh about herself?

Speaker 7 (01:17:40):
We have time for another way?

Speaker 14 (01:17:41):
Why this is from This is from TIF and Augusta.
Tip says, I had a man on the side and
he's friends with my brother, and my brother knew about it,
and it was cool until my brother got mad at
me over some money. I borrowed the money from him,
and I can't pay him back right now. My brother said,
if I was cheating, I should have had least been
getting money from the other man. He's threatening to tell

(01:18:04):
my husband on me if I don't give him at
least half of his five thousand dollars back. Why would
my own brother put pressure on me like this?

Speaker 9 (01:18:11):
Because you need that five Yeah, get some.

Speaker 11 (01:18:15):
Of that money. Back. I get your brother that money back,
because that conversation he can have you Really, how many
fives you got out there though? How many fives? I get?

Speaker 1 (01:18:29):
What is wrong with you today?

Speaker 11 (01:18:32):
If I had all the money that I have given
to people, if I had it all back, all of it?

Speaker 14 (01:18:40):
Okay, Well, I'll be straight a one hundred million. That's
your number coming up in twenty minutes after we'll have
more of this very very generous show. Right after this,
you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. We talk
about a lot on this show. We talk about BUCkies

(01:19:02):
on this show. BUCkies is catching backlash from some of
its customers due to a recent change in their gift
card policy. The new policy states that you cannot use
a BUCkies gift card to buy gas at the pump
or inside BUCkies at a register. This news came as
a shot. Yeah, that's the crazy part, right. This news

(01:19:25):
came as a shot to one faithful BUCkies customer in Florida,
and his reaction was caught on video. Then now the
video has gone viral. The irate man ripped off his
BUCkies bumper stickers and tossed his BUCkies with beavers stuffed
toy into the street. Okay, he had a stuffed toy Bucky.
He threw that into the street. He had apparently driven

(01:19:46):
thirty miles to that Bucky's gas station to get gas,
and all he had was a gift card to pay
for the gas. In the video, he yelled, got four
dollars in my account and ten miles in my tank
and literally came and even get back home without getting
gas money from my parents. So you can buy everything
else but gas, you know, for gas. You're buying gas.

(01:20:09):
You can't do gas with it. And that's all he
wanted was gas.

Speaker 1 (01:20:13):
You could get other stuff. You can get other.

Speaker 14 (01:20:14):
Stuff, yeah, you guys, Yeah, you can get the gas
at the register. Oh you can't just for gas, right,
it's just for gas and we know how. Yeah, well
they just changed it to that.

Speaker 14 (01:25:31):
Oh, that's how you're gonna close this out.

Speaker 7 (01:25:34):
I thought you had a question, junior.

Speaker 12 (01:25:36):
I do unk.

Speaker 13 (01:25:37):
It's about marriage, Unk. You know, you said people are
two different people once they get married. Say, we're different
about fifty so Unk? What what's what makes a great marriage?
What makes a great marriage?

Speaker 9 (01:25:51):
In your in your eyes, it's a lot of things
that can make a great marriage.

Speaker 11 (01:25:56):
Anybody that lasts for any length of time has done
something phenomenal. You know. If you can stay with the
same person and build a future and take care of
a family and plan and go on vacations and save
and all like that, that's a great marriage. If you
could overcome all the doubts and fight through all the

(01:26:16):
changes that each of you have gone through in your life.
If you can stand by somebody in sickness, and and
help riches.

Speaker 9 (01:26:22):
Are for poor if you could obey them.

Speaker 11 (01:26:25):
Voles. Man, that's a great marriage if you can still
hold it together. Man, after so many things have tried
to tell you apart, that's a great marriage. What what
what what do you what? What part of marriage is
hardest for you? I think it's a communication part.

Speaker 8 (01:26:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:26:44):
Yeah, it's very very poor at that.

Speaker 11 (01:26:48):
Yeah, yeah, help him, Yeah, Junior, Well, let'st we just
have an honest conversation. Okay, let me put it this way.
You did need to work on your community patient skills,
as do all of us. Most men are not really
great communicators to begin with. Yeah, because we don't really

(01:27:09):
know how to show our feelings and all of that. So,
you know, I think it's it's a thing that that
that hinders most of us as men. And then marriage
can present some brand new challenges for us all and

(01:27:30):
if we don't communicate, these challenges can be daunting, right.
I had some challenges in my previous marriage. I just
couldn't get over, man, I just couldn't. I didn't have
the skill set, you know. And I think if I
were a person like you, you in a new marriage,

(01:27:51):
relatively new, newest of any on this show, before I spoke,
I would take a moment to kind of say what
I'm gonna say to her till myself several times, maybe
even jotted on a piece of paper, read it out
loud before you say it, because a lot of times, man,
when you say stuff, it just comes across you.

Speaker 7 (01:28:13):
Bet not.

Speaker 11 (01:28:15):
You know, you gotta you gotta, you gotta look at
stuff like that, You gotta kind of reconsider. Have you
thought about trying it like that? Junior?

Speaker 9 (01:28:22):
Have you thought about pausing before you say anything?

Speaker 11 (01:28:25):
Because usually what hurts the marriage is you say stuff
in a in a moment of heat, in the heated moment,
and you say something you end up regretting.

Speaker 12 (01:28:36):
I under I hear you.

Speaker 9 (01:28:38):
Now you hear it.

Speaker 7 (01:28:39):
I ask you your question.

Speaker 13 (01:28:41):
I know I'm not gonna answer that because I ain't
jotting it down and you know what I say it yep.

Speaker 11 (01:28:48):
Well, I don't know everything you say. Of course I'm
not in your house, but I'm just saying, do you
think it would be a good idea to pause, kind
of run it by yourself off before you letter.

Speaker 14 (01:29:04):
Junior?

Speaker 13 (01:29:04):
You're running it by him though you know I'm a
stand up comedian.

Speaker 12 (01:29:08):
I pretty much say a lot of things and uh,
you know.

Speaker 11 (01:29:13):
Oh you think that's gonna help your marriage out. You
think you're being No.

Speaker 13 (01:29:16):
No, it didn't, but I said it, so I didn't
think about it when I said it.

Speaker 12 (01:29:22):
I just said it.

Speaker 8 (01:29:23):
You know.

Speaker 11 (01:29:23):
Well, after you said how funny was it?

Speaker 13 (01:29:27):
Well, that was a that was a dead audience that moment.
There wasn't really a lot of laughter in the room
at that point.

Speaker 9 (01:29:33):
Did you hear the boy?

Speaker 13 (01:29:38):
Yeah, they walked out.

Speaker 11 (01:29:40):
I know that they didn't work. Since you want to
use being a comedian as an analogy, if you're a comedian,
a quiet room right after you finished talking, it's not
a good room to be in for a comedian because see,
if you finished talking as a comedian, that's usually you've

(01:30:03):
delivered the punchline. And when there's silence right after that,
and that that that that is a good day at
the job.

Speaker 12 (01:30:12):
Have you had some of them days at home? Dot?
Have you had some days like that?

Speaker 11 (01:30:16):
Have I had some days like that? Now you think
I know what I'm talking about. I done told the
punchline and nothing.

Speaker 13 (01:30:29):
I'm talking I'm talking about at home? And you said
some things at home and it got quiet and there.

Speaker 9 (01:30:35):
You ain't.

Speaker 11 (01:30:36):
You ain't hear what I just said. Hey man, let
me let me stop this right here, because I'm finna
get mad. No no, no, no, no. Let's I'm supposed
to be helping him, but he don't want to help
because he see, Junior, real problem is you don't listen. Yeah,
you don't listen, sir. I'm just I'm let's take it
a whole nother way communication. You'll probably your biggest problem

(01:31:00):
with communication is you don't listen. You ain't heard nothing
I said. And you know, man, when I try to
help you, Junior, we do the same thing. How many
times have I stopped you in the middle of talking
and say, hey, man, did you hear what I said?
Are you listening?

Speaker 12 (01:31:19):
Yes, sir, Yes, sir, I'm listening.

Speaker 11 (01:31:23):
It's sir.

Speaker 12 (01:31:24):
You been in my life fifteen years. Look how much
I've grown.

Speaker 11 (01:31:27):
Yes, I've listened.

Speaker 7 (01:31:29):
I'm listening.

Speaker 12 (01:31:30):
That's fair.

Speaker 11 (01:31:30):
Well, I'm trying to get her to be in your
life fifteen years. I'm trying to help you with that
part right now, right now, I'm telling you, right now,
