That's an amazing God right there. Because I know I
couldn't do it. I couldn't do it. I'm glad it's him,
you know. Today, Man, I want to encourage brothers out there.
And when I say brothers, I'm talking to everybody that's
of the male species. I don't care about your color.
I really really don't. I don't even have time for
that in my day. Matter of fact, sometimes when you

(04:18):
get to discuss and race, I just get tired of it.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
Sometimes I just wish, you know, some days I just
want to wake up, just do me.

Speaker 8 (04:25):
You know, I got what the skin tone is, I
got that, But I just want to wake up some
days and just going by my business and do me.
I don't want to have to deal with it somebody.
I get tired of talking about the issues. Ain't gonna
make them go away, But sometimes I get tired. So
to day, I'm talking to brothers, all the brothers of
the male species. I'm talking about men today. Man, if

(04:48):
you ain't doing it all, if you're feeling empty, man,
start today completing your process and your journey. And you
know what I'm saying by that, if there's a part
of you just missing as a man. And now, man,
I'm talking to you. So you know, some ladies listening,
but you know what I'm talking about. It's some part
of you that's missing as a man. If you ain't

(05:10):
really been in touch with your kids like you're supposed
to now for whatever the reason is. And please know,
I do understand how sometimes women can use children as pawns.
It happens all the time. I've been through it. I've
been through it, man, I know what it feels like, man,
to wanna do something. But because you ain't got this

(05:33):
or you ain't doing this, then I ain't gonna let
you have this. You gotta fight through, fellas, you got
to fight through. You got to fulfill your end of
the deal. And I got how difficult they making it.
I got how man, it's gonna come with some drama,
but you gotta fight through it. Because man, we need

(05:53):
fathers to be fathers. That's really what we need. If
you're a man out there and you are a father
of a child, we need you do your job.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
I'm talking about.

Speaker 8 (06:04):
Our community, our situation, us as a people, all of us.
We need you to be a father period. Hey man,
I ain't coming down on you. I'm just your boy.
I'm your man. And I've been in the same predicament,
in the same hole myself, where I couldn't get to them,

(06:25):
where they were used as pawns, where they were told
things about me that wasn't even true. I've been through it.
You can't see them, you don't come up. Okay, okay,
I got all that. You ain't sent this. You ain't okay,
Hey got all that. If you can call them sometimes,
tell them you're thinking about them, tell them you love them.

(06:47):
If you can get a letter to them, if you
can get a message to your children through one of
your relatives, start the process today.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Be a father.

Speaker 8 (06:58):
It's your job now, because cause you ignoring him, or
you acting like they ain't over there, or you thee
backed them out of your mind because the situation got
too difficult. I got that. I got that, But you
got to step up and be fathers. You got to
write a letter. You gotta send the money if she
talking about it. If you don't send all the money,
you ain't gonna see him. Send what you got if

(07:19):
she if taking it over there is too much drama,
send it through a relative, Give it to a mama,
Give it to her sister, ask her to take it
over there and do something for the baby. Because okay, okay,
you can't deal with the drama. I got that, and
I know it's much to pay. When you have to
deal with that because I clearly I know hell have
no fury like a woman's going. Please know. I know that,

(07:41):
Please know. And that's a real statement. That ain't no saying,
Steve got that's that's the truth. But do what you
gotta do. Sometimes you have to apologize. Sometimes an apology
goes a long way to your children. Just say look,
because I've made this uponology before. Hey man, look I'm

(08:02):
sorry I wasn't there for you. I was out grinding
and hustling and I wasn't paying attention to you, and
I should have been. And I apologize now. I imagine, man,
there's days where you was telling people I was your
father up at the school and they wasn't believing you.
I apologize for sending you through that. But now, man,
I tell you what. I made some mistakes, and I

(08:25):
got it together. I want me and you to move
forward as father and son. I want me and you
to move forward as father and daughter. I want to
be in your life now. I ain't got a lot,
but guess what, I know a lot because if you
a man and you a father, please know, you know something.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
That child don't know.

Speaker 8 (08:41):
You have information, you have experience, that's all they need
sometimes to have somebody to talk to. That daughter yours
just needs to know from her daddy, how should a
man treat me?

Speaker 6 (08:53):
Dad?

Speaker 3 (08:54):
What should I look for in a man?

Speaker 8 (08:56):
See, they'll take that information from you because they know
it's from the right place. And then you know that
your son needs you, because you know how difficult it
is if you're trying to be a man without your daddy.
You already know how funky that is, right there. So
come on, man and meet your mistakes and move forward.
Call your kids, write a letter, get a phone number

(09:20):
on them, send a text, drop a message, send a
note up to the school. Through something. Man, if those
of us that are fathers would just be fathers, I
could shut.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
The minering camp down.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Now.

Speaker 8 (09:36):
I will say I apologize because I don't want you
to think I'm coming down on you. But I've been
through this myself. I ain't really coming down. I'm just
reminding you. This is our job. These are our children,
this is our responsibility. We are men. There is no excuses.
You don't get you don't get cut a brake on
that one.

Speaker 9 (09:55):
Sorry, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Ship.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
Ladies and gentlemen, this morning, I have a question.

Speaker 8 (10:09):
The question is, when you woke up and open your eyes,
did you feel a very very strong sense of gratitude.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
As you start your day? Question?

Speaker 8 (10:23):
Have you realized that, Oh my goodness, this is another
great chance. Those are the two questions I have today.
I want you to answer that, and you need to
make the answer yes. And the way to do it
is at least the second part of that. Why I said,
as you start your day, which could be that for
many of us because this is morning, then at least

(10:45):
be able to answer yes to that. Okay, that's the
only way to be Steve Varred Morning Show, Shirley Strawberry,
Colin Farrell, Mississippi, Monica Junior and the legend that is
Nephew Tummy Junior.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
Read you right today?

Speaker 10 (11:01):
So what you mean I'm grateful and just ask ask
yourself the question, I'm gratefu.

Speaker 8 (11:06):
Yeah read wow wow, I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
A lot of reference to your hairline, yeah, he diden.
Do you have a question today?

Speaker 6 (11:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (11:20):
I do.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
I do have a question this morning. I want to
ask you.

Speaker 10 (11:22):
You know, I know you got your mentoring program going on,
but can you just explain to some people who don't
have a mentor. Why having a mentor is important? What's
the benefit of having a mentor?

Speaker 8 (11:33):
Well, Manhood is very difficult, no, ladies suppose. Again, this
is not to say the moment hoood isn't so just
I'm answering a question for the boy's mintoring camp.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
Manhood is very, very difficult.

Speaker 8 (11:46):
And because manhood is supposed to have a leadership component
to it is one of the things that makes it
incredibly challenging. And because manhood all has some elements to
it that seem to not being shot sought not excuse
me not being taught and shared with this younger generation,

(12:10):
that we are supposed to be protectives, that we are
supposed to be providers. That is what manhood is. We
are to protect, provide, and preserve. That's a must, that's
our job. But because that's not being taught a lot
of times, when a young man doesn't have a male

(12:33):
figure in his life, it's like an explorer without a map.
You just don't know the way there and it becomes
so challenging and trying to learn this thing called manhood
on your own.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
Oh my god. So what happens to these young people and.

Speaker 8 (12:49):
All men is you will want to be a man,
and then you are faced with the choices. You get
to be a good man or a sorry man, and
you get to decide along the way.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
If you're surrounded by sorry men.

Speaker 8 (13:06):
And that's your vision of what it is strong possibility,
that's the one you'll be. So what we do with
our mentoring programers we put a lot of strong, positive
men in front of these young guys, oftentimes for the
first time, and that gives them some insight as to
what it truly looks like. And we have bade these
principles in them for four days and we teach them

(13:27):
a lot of team bill and stuff, and life gets
good and we thank God for the Oh Boy's minering camp.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Ladies and Gentleen, it's time go to break.

Speaker 9 (13:36):

Speaker 11 (13:40):

This is from Janella and San Antonio. Janella writes, my
husband gets routine manicures and pedicures, but I can't believe

(22:47):
he got his chest and armpits wax at the salon recently.
He said he wants to get other areas wax too
so he can stay cool. Is that really why he's
waxing every thing?

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Well?

Speaker 8 (23:03):
Interesting, I don't know why you would do that. Personally,
I have no idea. I've never had that thought, nor
have I had that desire. All once you probably need
to do is get down there to that pedicure place.

Speaker 3 (23:23):
And yeah, yeah, and see if she find that's probably
what you need.

Speaker 12 (23:26):
You're talking to the wife right now.

Speaker 8 (23:28):
Yeah, you probably need to go down there to the
pedicure place and see if she find that. That's usually
when you get talked in and stuff like this. Yeah, yeah,
and that could be all it is. It's just some
fine chick down there and talked him into it. He
ain't got to be seeing her or nothing like that.
Just probably need to go down there and see if
she finds.

Speaker 11 (23:49):
Yeah, okay, and that'll answer all your questions, all right.
Moving on to Freida and Lake Charles. Frida writes that
my work husband got me a purse that I'd been wanting.
I carried the purse for weeks before my husband noticed it.
He knows I can't afford it, so I told him
that I charged it. He'll find out that I'm lying

(24:11):
when he pays the bills. What do I do?

Speaker 6 (24:14):
What?

Speaker 3 (24:15):
I don't know?

Speaker 1 (24:17):
I don't know?

Speaker 3 (24:17):
See no, no, come over here now.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
See yeah.

Speaker 8 (24:21):
See you lie, God, you're lie.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
The key to lie.

Speaker 8 (24:31):
Is you must be willing at all costs to continue
to lie.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
That's true.

Speaker 8 (24:38):
And you and you already don't have the right commitment
to be a good lie because you already and told
one lie. Now you shure he gonna find out when you.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
Should have thought of that.

Speaker 12 (24:51):
Yeah, her work husband bought her a bag.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
What why, work husband? Yeah, it's work hub.

Speaker 8 (25:00):

The standard line is, but the standard line is, Oh,
I've been had this.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
That's it.

Speaker 12 (25:14):
That's the standard line.

Speaker 11 (25:17):
Anything she boosted the bag, that's another unnecessary lie.

Speaker 12 (25:26):
I've been had this, I just haven't carried it. That's
all you say, perfect.

Speaker 8 (25:30):
Lie, you got it. You're not fast on your feet,

Speaker 8 (26:02):

Last one, Steve, Last one ClOH in Gainesville Rights. I've
been dating a woman for two years and on Sundays
she told my mom that her mac and cheese is
missing something. My heart stopped, but my mom handled it
with grace. After dinner, my mom said to let it go.
Do I let it go or do I let her go?

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (28:19):
Do I let it go? Or do I let her
go over this mama's mac and cheese?

Speaker 3 (28:25):
Yeah, wouldn't it though? Are you real?

Speaker 12 (28:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (28:33):
Yeah, so you done thought enough of this woman to
introduce her to your mama. That's when it got good,
you know what. And when he brings you home to
his mama.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
He considered it.

Speaker 8 (28:44):
Okay, okay, she made a bad move. Probably wasn't the
best thing to say. She just ate the mac and
cheese and then not care for it. But keep your
mouth shut. Yeah, it's missing something. Even your mother saying
let it go, She must like to girl, Yeah, why
did you write us?

Speaker 3 (29:05):
What is it missing? Is it the cheese.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
That major?

Speaker 3 (29:12):
See?

Speaker 8 (29:12):
They ain't using chadar or something like that. Probably some
provolone something like that. Man, this dude made some mac
and cheese one time and put almond slithers in it.

This morning, longtime friend, Lord have Mercy, has played such
a pivotal role in my success early on, as well
as a host of others. We go all the way
back to the Steve Harvey Show. Lord have Mercy. She
starred as LaVita alas A Jenkins. He's an actress or writer, producer.

(31:02):
Her newest project, brand new when y'all, is an all
new series that's on Netflix right now. All new series
on Netflix right now, and it's called She the People.
She is the co creator, she is the executive producer
of She the People, and she's here to tell us
all about it. It's a new series on Netflix. Ladies

(31:24):
and gentlemen, please welcome family member, longtime friend. You know
her as Levita alas A Jenkins, called government name Terry
jay Von.

Speaker 12 (31:37):
Welcome.

Speaker 3 (31:42):
What was going on? Girl?

Speaker 15 (31:44):
I am so happy to be with you guys. Thank you, Seeve,
thank you Shirley, Carlo Tomi, Thank y'all for having me on.

Speaker 8 (31:53):
I couldn't believe this. You have been at this for
quite some time.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
I know you.

Speaker 8 (31:59):
I've heard you discussing projects before. Well we did it.
It's called She the People is streaming right now on Netflix.
You star as a character named Antoinette Dunkerson. She is
Mississippi's first black female lieutenant governor. And She the People
is all about politics, power, and petty. It's Southern style.

(32:22):
So Terry tell us about the show.

Speaker 15 (32:26):
Yeah, so she's the people first. I have to tell
you how where the inspiration for the show came from.
When my girlfriend London Breed became the first black female
mayor of our city, San Francisco, where we grew up
in back in twenty seventeen or twenty eighteen, and she

(32:47):
got so much pushback and with so much drama for
her and she's just a girl.

Speaker 19 (32:52):
From the hood.

Speaker 12 (32:53):
You know, she grew up.

Speaker 15 (32:54):
In one hood. I grew up in another hood to
come from very humble beginning and watched her work her
way up through politics in our city, one of the
richest cities in the nation, and to become the first
black female mayor, it was a huge deal. And she
got so much pushback and watching her like mouth through

(33:15):
all the situations and do all the things you have
to do was just so inspiring to me. And so
I was like, dang, that would be a really great
character to play. But of course, though she was dealing
with all this drama and heaviness, I wanted to put
a comical twist on it because I believe you can
tell stories and send your messages and they become more

(33:38):
digestible if you can make people laugh while you're talking
about all the hard things that we have to go through.
So that's where the inspiration where the show came from.
So back during the writer's strike, when the writers and
actors and everybody was on strike, I called Naya Palmer,
who's an amazing writer, and I was like, what if

(33:58):
we shoot a proup of constant of this show because
we've been like pitching it, talking, telling people about it,
and nobody's fighting. So I was like, let's shoot it
while everybody's on strike, so when the strike is over,
we have something to show people. And so that's what
we did. She wrote, like the fifteen minute spect we shot.
I got a team together, as you know seeve I

(34:19):
live here in Atlanta now, so the support of the
people here in the community for us to be able
to shoot it with massive and you know, because it
was in the space of politics and I'm not super
well versed in that area at all, I thought it
was smart to bring somebody onto the team that could
be like the producer, a consulting producer. So I called

(34:45):
our friend Keisha lance Bottom, and I pitched her the
show and asked her if she would be interested in
coming on board with me as a producer, and she
loved the idea and she said, yes.

Speaker 16 (34:58):
I'll join you.

Speaker 15 (35:00):
So with her by my side, I was able to
get the fund raise the fund from a private investor
here in Atlanta, and we shot this proof of concepts
so it came out exactly like I wanted it to.
So when the strike was over, we sent it out
into the world and we just got called after calls

(35:21):
after calls, people wanting to meet with us for this show.
And one of the people we met with was Tyler Perry,
and we got multiple offers. But going with Tyler Perry,
it sits the vision of what I wanted to do
with the show. And now it's on air, and you know,

(35:43):
a lot of the character's names are named after people
and my family or my neighborhood. My mother's played by
Joe Marie Tayton, who was Harriet Winslow on Family Matter.
Yes she is not Harriet Windblow on show Sasty Saucy.

(36:03):
She drops the F Bob tells it like it is.
This has been twenty years of pitting my own show
and finally it happened.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
We did it, and that is persistence.

Speaker 8 (36:19):
I mean, I'm telling you what I mean, it's just
a great story of perseverance and vision and all of
that and that's how God works. And congratulations on it
because I think Tyler Perry was the ideal pick for it. Yep, yeah,
I mean congratulations. That's a great story. I think it's
I think it's a worth for everybody. Everybody in the

(36:41):
Steve Harvey Nation. Go on Netflix and check it out.
It is called She the People. It is produced Starry
in our very own Terry J.

Speaker 6 (36:53):

Speaker 8 (36:54):

in an application with the with the employment agency about
looking for some work as far as being a lifeguard.

Speaker 12 (47:41):
Oh, yeah, I did.

Speaker 16 (47:42):
Okay. Have you had much experience being a lifeguard?

Speaker 19 (47:46):
Yeah, I've been doing this for a while now, back
since i was like eighteen I got my CPR certification.
I've had as many as like two hundred people and
time watching them. So I'm good. I'm good at what
I do.

Speaker 16 (48:03):
I love it, very good, very good. Well, i'll tell
you what. I've looked over your application and I've checked
everything out thoroughly, and I'm very excited about maybe getting
you to I don't know if you're familiar with it.
But public pool. It's actually in the subdivision. There's two
pools there. Are you familiar with Yeah.

Speaker 19 (48:22):
I'm familiar with there. They're they're near where I is.

Speaker 16 (48:25):
Yeah, okay, Well there's actually in the backup there's a
gated community and that is actually the particular property that
I'm talking about. You coming out and working for us
there at the pool site. If we can get you
on Monday to Friday, we're going to actually hire some
some more college students for Saturday and Sunday.

Speaker 22 (48:46):
What do you say, Oh, I say, okay, that sounds great.

Speaker 19 (48:49):
Monday weekends off.

Speaker 16 (48:51):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Now we start off. Job actually pays
twenty five dollars an hour. Wow. You would be our
head lifeguard, and we would want you to be there
from you know, I mean if you start at twelve,
we'd actually like you to get there around eleven thirty,
you know, just just to be prepared and be the

(49:12):
overseer and make sure the other lifeguards get there on time,
and you know, we'll go from there. Okay, Now, Carrie,
there's only one catch that actually comes along with this job.
We want you to work an additional four hours from
six to ten at night. But it's going to pay
you fifty dollars per hour, so you'll make an extra
two hundred dollars. How do you feel about that?

Speaker 15 (49:33):

I can use that money right now, especially during the
summer time.

Speaker 16 (49:40):
Okay, now here's the deal. This is in a gated
community like I told you before, but also it's going
to be adults at night, and they are actually going
to be swimming nude. What Yeah, they're going to be
swimming nude. And what they asked is if they're going
to be swimming nude, they want to make sure that
the lifeguard that's for detecting them is going to be

(50:01):
nude as well.

Speaker 19 (50:03):
Okay, I'm a certified lifeguard, I'm CPR certified, I'm a student.
I've had other jobs, but nudity wasn't on my resume.

Speaker 16 (50:13):
And I understand that wholeheartedly. But we're talking about you
possibly making seventeen hundred and fifty dollars a week. How

We got it for you. Here it is Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 11 (56:47):
Thank you nephew. Subject has my husband been faking it?
Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a thirty nine year old married
woman and my husband is thirty seven. My husband lost
his job in twenty twenty and we moved to a
smaller house and use the equity from our old house
to cover our expenses until he could find another job.
The change of lifestyle made us closer and really humbled him.

(57:11):
He finally joined my church and he stopped pressuring me
to have a baby. He told me that he was
happier than he'd been he'd ever been, and he felt
at peace.

Speaker 1 (57:20):
Then he got a.

Speaker 11 (57:21):
Job in twenty twenty three, late last year, he got
a big promotion and now he earns more than he's
ever earned. By the first of this year, he started
saying that we're outgrowing the small house and we need
to find a house in our old neighborhood. He suggested
that I start looking for a new car for myself,
but I just paid off my Volvo, so I'm good

(57:42):
for now. I am a teacher and I have no
desire to drive a nice car to my job in
the hood. He bought a new SUV and renewed our
membership to a private club where we were usually the
only blacks at events. He started going back to his
old tailor and he cut off his beard that I loved.
He was becoming his old self again. A Memorial Day,

(58:05):
his company had a cookout, and I could not wait
to meet his coworkers. That he bragged about most of
the black ones don't know they're black. And I didn't
know if I should laugh at my husband or clap
for him when he used proper subject verb agreement. My
husband really wants the status that he once had. I
told him that he lied about being comfortable with my

(58:27):
downs with downsizing our lives. He said that it is
time for a change. Was my husband faking his happiness
with me for the past five years? Well, I mean, definitely,
I don't think he was faking it. But what I'm
trying to figure out is what are you complaining about?
I mean, I would think you would be happy to
move into a nicer home and also that your husband

(58:51):
wants to buy you a new car and do nice
things for you. I mean, he's obviously making more money
now and he's being the provider, and that's what real moment,
real men do.

Speaker 12 (59:01):
He's getting a swag back. Okay.

Speaker 11 (59:03):
He wants you to be proud of him. He wants
you to go with him, but you're seem stuck and resistant.
I mean, I really again, don't think he was lying
about being comfortable with the downsizing, not at all. He
made the necessary adjustments to deal with the life he
had while he wasn't working.

Speaker 12 (59:22):
He didn't complain, He dealt with it.

Speaker 11 (59:24):
Now he's back and he wants to live and thrive
and take his life your lives to the next level.

Speaker 12 (59:30):
He wants you to go with him. You're his wife.
What's wrong with that? It shows he's adaptable. He's making
up for lost time now.

Speaker 11 (59:37):
While you're trying to stay stuck in the past, you know,
and focus on the wrong thing.

Speaker 1 (59:42):
Steve, you know what I think.

Speaker 3 (59:44):
I think I don't even want to do this letter.

Speaker 8 (59:47):
That's how I feel about I really do case, Shelley,
you absolutely correct.

Speaker 3 (59:51):
What are you complaining about? What's the matter?

Speaker 8 (59:56):
This man ain't cheating, He ain't taking his money, is
spending it no way else. He keep bringing it back
into the house. He wants to do something nice for
you all the time. You're a teacher. You don't want
to drive a nice car into the hood. You sold
your your paid your Vovo off. He won't get you
a new car.

Speaker 3 (01:00:15):
Drive your Vovo. I don't even know what's what's wrong
in this letter?

Speaker 1 (01:00:22):
Yes, what is wrong?

Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
I don't even know. Has my husband been faking it now?
I'm thinking you know that title. Yeah, I know what
you mean.

Speaker 8 (01:00:32):
Yes, faking and telling us we've been in love for
years and he got another family some well, he tell
me everything all right, and he's seeing this other woman
on the side. That letter ain't about none of that.
Listen to what he did. You're a thirty nine year
old married woman. Your husband is thirty seven. He lost

(01:00:52):
his job y'all moved into a smaller house. Y'all took
the equity from the old house and held it down
until he could. And you say, to cover our expenses
until he could find another good job. That's what you
did with the equity in the house, to cover y'all's
expenses until he could find another good job. Then you said,

(01:01:13):
the change of lifestyle made us closely closer, and it
really humbled him. Okay, see this is what this led about.
You like the new humble person. He finally joined my church.
He stopped pressuring me to have a baby. See now,
as long as he doing what you want to do,
there you go. Now you happy he joined your church,

(01:01:35):
And he probably didn't won't go down a little raggedy church.

Speaker 3 (01:01:39):
He went on and join you.

Speaker 8 (01:01:40):
He might not even like your past, all that hooping
and hollery. Everybody don't want to go down there for
all that? Why is they running in here?

Speaker 15 (01:01:47):
Well?

Speaker 3 (01:01:47):
All and everybody want to all you go want the
little quiet, little church.

Speaker 8 (01:01:50):
Ain't nobody rejoicing all their old dry service, ain't got
no jam in choir. He finally joined it, and he
does stop pressuring you to have a baby. He want
a family. You're thirty nine, that's pressure to have a baby.

Speaker 3 (01:02:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:02:05):
He told me that he's happier than he's ever been,
and he felt at peace. Here's a man who made
the necessary adjustments without complaining, and he settled on in
for the sake of his family. Then he got a
job in twenty twenty three, he backed making all kinds
of new money. He started saying that we're outgrowing the

(01:02:26):
small house. We need to find a house in our
old neighborhood. He suggested, you start looking for a new
car for yourself. I just paid off my Vovo, so
I'm good. I'm a teacher. I don't want to drive
his nice car in the hood. He bought a new suv.
He renewed your membership down at the private club. We
using only blacks at the events. That's what happened when
you in certain neighborhoods. He started going back to his

(01:02:48):
old tailor, cut off his beard that I loved. He
was becoming his old self again. Then they had a cookout.
You met the black people that wasn't really black. You
was laughing at him the way he talked, just hang on, girl, buy.

Speaker 11 (01:03:02):
Hang hold, hang on, Steve, We'll have for two of
your response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour.
Today's Strawberry Letter subject is has my husband been faking it?

Speaker 12 (01:03:13):
We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening
Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 13 (01:03:22):
My name is Tony and my daughter, Bailey is seven
years old. We learned about seek of Sale at bird
So when we got the news, my first mind was whyause.
I remember that sometimes the things that you go through
are not necessarily for you, there for somebody else. I'm
so thankful to God and Saint Jude and all the
angels they work here.

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
They took all the worry away.

Speaker 11 (01:03:43):
sickle cell. Please become a Saint Jude Partner in Hope
today by texting SHMS to seven eight five eight three three.
All right, come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry Letter.
I know you said you didn't want to really do
this letter.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
Let's do it.

Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
They married couple. She thirty nine, he thirty seven. He
had a job.

Speaker 8 (01:04:09):
He lost his job, and they decided to downsize until
he could find a better job.

Speaker 3 (01:04:15):
Another good job, they say, So they took the.

Speaker 8 (01:04:17):
Equity from the house provided a lifestyle for him, and
she said that the change really humbled him. So he
stopped pressing you the having a baby, and he finally
joined your church. Man, he ain't want to join the
church down there. Maybe he ain't like the two reasons
you don't want to go to church. You don't want
to go down there with all that hooping and holleringd

(01:04:38):
that tracked me to be at some churches. Or you
want to go down to this little dry Latin speaking
Lord you over there there and got him.

Speaker 3 (01:04:46):
Books, the whole dry service. Y'all ain't got no drum
at the church. Nothing. Everybody don't want that.

Speaker 6 (01:04:51):
Now.

Speaker 8 (01:04:51):
You either don't want the hooping and holland or the
track meet, or you don't want to go down here
that it latins me. Oh oh, we're gonna open up
our him books to page toy to eight.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
I know he will fix it. He will after a while.
We didn't have no human books.

Speaker 8 (01:05:17):
Somebody just jumped up and busted out into a soung
and we followed. Well, he didn't finally join the church.
Stop pressing you to have a baby. He told you
he was happy and that he had ever been and
he felt at peace. This is a man who's adjusting
to the circumstance. So instead of getting down that downside
and complaining, he told you he was at peace. Last

(01:05:40):
year he got a new job, got a big promotion.
Want to move out the old neighborhood, he suggested. They
started looking for a bigger house. Then he told you
to find yourself a new car. I just paid off
my Vovo. I'm a teacher. I don't want to drive
no new car to no hood. Keep your Vovo. Then
he bought a new su V renewed your membership down
at the private club.

Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
Well, we usually only blacks at the event. That's what
happened all the time.

Speaker 8 (01:06:03):
When you move out into neighborhoods, it ain't a lot
of us out there, so you wind up being the
only one that ain't the first time, then this company
had a cookout. I couldn't wait to meet his coworkers
that he bragged about. Most of the black ones don't
know that they black, or they playing the game too,
because when they're at home, they got to be something else.
We done all had to put the mask on to

(01:06:25):
come to work. So you know, everybody know what the masks,
look like there's work in corporate America and put the
mask on. Go down here and deal with it so
we can go home. Yeah, most of the black ones
don't know they black. They probably do. They just got
to play the game. And so I didn't know if
I should laugh at my husband or clap when he
used proper subject verb agreement. You a teacher, You ought

(01:06:47):
to be happy about that. My husband really wants the
status that he once had. Yes, he does, because that's
what money does. It provides you with the status. I
told him he lied about being comfortable with downsides in
our lives.

Speaker 3 (01:07:04):
No, he didn't.

Speaker 8 (01:07:06):
He just adjusted and instead of being a whiner and complainer,
he went along with it. Man, that's the kind of
man you won't. He said that it's time for a change.
Was my husband faking his happiness with me for the
past five years? Why is that your question?

Speaker 23 (01:07:23):
Exactly?

Speaker 3 (01:07:24):
Why is that your question?

Speaker 8 (01:07:28):
If he was faking it, what you would with having
a real family and another family or a woman on
the side and all that I could have.

Speaker 3 (01:07:34):
But he No, he wasn't faking it. That's the happiest
he's been.

Speaker 8 (01:07:38):
He was at peace, he was out the rat race
for a minute, he took a break, but the true
him wants to get back in the game. And yes,
he won't stack status because that's why you make more money.
And he's doing exactly what a man should do. He's
making more money to provide a better lifestyle for you.
He buying you a bigger house, he buying you a

(01:08:01):
new car. Man, what do you want? What difference do
it make? Why are you trying to make something wrong? Exactly,
You're just trying to make something wrong. Lady, it's women
listening to this letter, going girl by this woman sitting
If you're going, that's that sounded like my husband.

Speaker 12 (01:08:24):
Yeah, I wish I could get my husband to do
this or.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
Or that's my husband.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
Yeah, yeah, that's just the way of manhood.

Speaker 8 (01:08:36):
So that's why they want to answer this letter because
I don't know what she's complaining about. It just lady,
you ain't even got no problem. Let me cut my
computer on. I ain't got no more comments on. Y'all

Speaker 12 (01:13:56):
All right, Junior?

Speaker 11 (01:13:57):
Thank you coming up at the top of the or
a woman that needs some help Steve.

Speaker 9 (01:14:03):
Right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (01:14:11):
All right, Steve.

Speaker 11 (01:14:11):
This is from Canetra in mid Lothian. Canetra says, I'm
old school when it comes to dating and my boyfriend
is older, so I would expect him to get certain
things right. For example, he will text me when he
pulls up to let me know he's downstairs instead of
coming up to get me. So what I live on
the second floor, and he texts me all day long

(01:14:34):
instead of calling me. If I call him, he always
asks what's wrong. He also won't hold my hand in public,
and he won't sit beside me in restaurants. What's weird
is that he told me that he loves me. How
do I get this forty five year old man's actions
to match up with his words?

Speaker 8 (01:14:53):
Wait a minute, First of all, your actions are not.
You don't require anything. He texts you downstairs, go down
there and get in the.

Speaker 3 (01:15:01):
Car, okay, Instead of you can train a man how
to treat you, he texts you you go down and
get in the car.

Speaker 12 (01:15:11):
But you're mad about it now.

Speaker 8 (01:15:12):
He don't sit next to you in the restaurant because
he got he should be sitting there watching that door.
I don't sit next to my wife in the restaurant.
We sit across from each other, and I'll sit with
my I face the door. I got to see this door.
I gotta see what's happening. So there's nothing wrong with that.
He texts you, and you respond. That's why he keep

(01:15:34):
texting me. You've never said, hey, look, I don't care
for text I want to hear your voice. Call me
if you want this to continue. So it ain't what
he doing wrong, it's what you're allowing him to do
so once again. And if a man loves you, he
gonna accommodate.

Speaker 3 (01:15:50):
You sitting next to each other texting so stupid.

Speaker 11 (01:16:02):
All right, we have done for another one, Steve, So
you're telling kenetra I just told her Shirley, Yeah, and
to get her standards together. That's all all right, We
do have time for another one. This is from Levi
and Saint Louis. Levi said, I had company over watching
TV and enjoying a bottle of bourbon, and my date's
phone kept ringing. She put it on vibrate and it

(01:16:24):
kept on vibrating. Finally I asked her if she needed
to check her phone. She said it was her roommate
and she'd call her. When she got in the car.
She asked if we could go on back to my
bed because she was ready to have sex. I told
her to go ahead and leave so she could call
her roommates. She seemed like she had a few screws
loose and she was hiding something. Did I do the

(01:16:46):
right thing?

Speaker 3 (01:16:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:16:47):
You did, doog, Yeah you did? Yeah, very rarely do
me and make the smart decision in it. That's going
in the back to the bedroom because I'm ready to
have sex with y'all going it, let's go, It's usually
the response.

Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
But you knew something was wrong, You knew something was wrong.

Speaker 12 (01:17:08):
What was wrong?

Speaker 3 (01:17:10):
Well, you know, some screws is loose? Phone just vibrating.
That ain't your girlfriend, So you know that's a problem.
And so that was a problem.

Speaker 6 (01:17:22):
And then.

Speaker 8 (01:17:24):
The other one about you know, let's go on in
the back, bro, and I'm gonna tell you something else
to fine? And she really wasn't that fine?

Speaker 1 (01:17:34):
Yeah, why do you say that?

Speaker 12 (01:17:39):
Why let the people know why you said that?

Speaker 1 (01:17:42):
Questions?

Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
Why do I say she wasn't fine?

Speaker 8 (01:17:45):
If a woman said let's go on in the back
of the bedroom, how you ain't going over there?

Speaker 3 (01:17:51):
I don't care what screw you got loose in your head?
Who was about that?

Speaker 6 (01:17:54):
Later on?

Speaker 1 (01:17:55):
Yeah, you're like crazy anyway?

Speaker 8 (01:17:57):
Yeah, you know how many fine people out and been
with about you having no loose screw?

Speaker 12 (01:18:09):
Was she too aggressive in her approach?

Speaker 23 (01:18:12):
Was she to aggressive?

Speaker 6 (01:18:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 12 (01:18:13):
That phone?

Speaker 3 (01:18:14):
You know she might you know that. You don't know
how dog, that phone just vibrating? That sound like that
sounded like call girl to me.

Speaker 1 (01:18:22):

you have to remember that you are blessing. To become
a blessing. It's just nineteen dollars. That hot coffee down now,

break of the day on this Friday. It's been a
good day. It's been a good day.

Speaker 3 (01:25:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:25:30):
I want to say real, real quickly about the mentoring camp.
Have a new group of boys down here this year,
one hundred and fifty strong. Seems like a good group.
We're working them through the paces. I want to thank
all the volunteer mentors who came down. You know, we
lost the United States Army support because it would disadministration

(01:25:51):
put it under the DEI. So they killed that and
the contribution that the US Army was making. They took
the funding and they took the soldiers. But I want
to thank God for so many of the soldiers that
have helped me over the years heard about it and
they took their vacation.

Speaker 3 (01:26:08):
Time and twenty of them came and volunteered. Thank you
for you.

Speaker 8 (01:26:16):
I thought that was outstanding man for them brothers in
the US Army. So that just wanted to say that, Junior,
you had a question for me, Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:26:23):
Because it was right up that alley actually, because I
was asking what all the success you have?

Speaker 3 (01:26:27):
Man?

Speaker 16 (01:26:27):
You have?

Speaker 3 (01:26:28):
You know, you're a motivational speaker, your.

Speaker 10 (01:26:30):
Radio host, your TV personality, and then here you are
spending your Father's Day weekend with some men you've never met,
some young men you never met before.

Speaker 3 (01:26:38):
What made you put mentorship on this list? Because it
seems like you had everything.

Speaker 8 (01:26:42):
Well, you know, I have a saying that says, your
career is what you paid for, but your calling is
what you're made for. And I discovered out of all
my success that the real purpose that God gave me
this vehicle of success for was to turn around and

(01:27:06):
do his work. God blesses you to become a blessing.
That's my mother imparted that on me. Even as a child.
She used to tell me something one time that I
didn't understand. I'd be on my way out to school
and every now and then she said, boy, don't forget
one day, God gonna give you a big house up

(01:27:26):
on the hill. You can't get up on that hill,
and don't take nobody with you.

Speaker 6 (01:27:31):
Now.

Speaker 8 (01:27:31):
I didn't get it at the time, but my mother
knew something that I didn't know, that one day I
would have a big house up on the hill, and
that it was my obligation to teach other people how
to get on the hill too. And that's a big
part of it. And I I just have discovered the

(01:27:54):
older I Get Nurse program is sixteen, seventeen years old.
Maybe even yeah, plans is older than that. Really, yeah,
the minnoring camp is older than that. I don't even know. Wow,
I had this minoring camp back in two thousand and three.
It's twenty some years old. Man, I've been doing this

(01:28:17):
since Dallas. I lost track. But anyway, Uh, I've.

Speaker 3 (01:28:22):
Just learned that.

Speaker 8 (01:28:24):
All of this fame and and and and and means
that God had graced me would had to have a
purpose attacked to it. I've actually found my purpose in life.
I got the fame part, that's cool, but that's gonna be.

Speaker 3 (01:28:38):
Over with one day.

Speaker 18 (01:28:39):
Now.

Speaker 8 (01:28:39):
I won't do TV forever, you know, and that's that's
gonna go away. But my legacy won't go away. My
legacy is gonna be here after I'm gone. I've learned
something owning this ranch.

Speaker 3 (01:28:55):
As i've.

Speaker 8 (01:28:58):
A tornado came through and distroyd a huge part of
the forest that I own. So we got with the
Department of Georgia Agriculture and they tore down probably one
hundred acres of trees, just tore them out the ground,
just horrible tornado. So I had to replace them, and

(01:29:22):
I replaced ninety thousand trees, replanted ninety thousand trees. Department
of Georgia came down and helped me do it. They
send the people down there that make rolls and they
plant these sprucelings and I've watched these brucelinks grow over
the years. But you know what, I also realize a

(01:29:45):
society becomes great when old men plant trees under which
the shade they know they'll never sit. I know that
I won't be here when them trees get really, really
big enough to create shade. I know I'm not gonna

(01:30:08):
be here for that. Those trees that got took out
the ground was one hundred years old. Man, I won't
even be here for when they're fifty years old and
they provide all that shade. But the saying is a
society becomes great when old men plant trees under which
the shade they know they'll never sit. And I've decided

(01:30:31):
to be that type of person that I'm gonna plant
some seeds and stick some things in the ground under
which I won't see the result of, but the results
will be there after I'm long gone. And that's why
I meant to these young men. Some of these young
men gonna be grandfathers one day. I may not be
here when they become grandfathers, but I put enough seeds

(01:30:53):
in the ground to produce enough boys. I have been
able to see some boys turn into some fine young men.
I have lived long enough to see that. And so
as I build my legacy by the grace of God
and with the help of Marjorie, and we have the
Stephen Marjorie Harvey Legacy Ranch. That's why I called it

(01:31:14):
the Legacy Ranch. You know, it was the Rock Ranch
for years. They got a big sign out there, Rock Ranch.
I had to take the crest out the ground and
put my own family crest in the ground because it's
something we're doing, and we're doing it to change the
lives of boys and girls, to bake, to make better
young men and better young women, so people have better families,

(01:31:35):
your daughters have better choices in men. And that's what
it's about, man. And so that's the purpose I have
in my life. And I'll continue that until I leave here,
i end my entertainment career. But that thing right there,
I'll never stop doing that. Those are my clothing. Watch
you don't talk to God, everybody. He would absolutely love
to hear from you. Y'all have a great day, Stay

(01:31:56):
in peace now, holler Father.
