Excuse me, you are listening to the voice. Come on
dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a
radio show. Man o man o man something going on
real good today. You ought to feel blessed today. The

(02:20):
fact that God woke you up and gave you another opportunity.
You know, every day you wake up, it's another chance.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
It's a chance for all of us to get better,
to get it right, to get on the right path,
to stop heading the wrong way. Every day you wake up,
that's your opportunity. See, because He's gonna keep waking you
up because he has a plan for you. You know,
I don't know, uh you know, I don't. I don't.

(02:48):
I don't know when he makes his call, and you
know who gets called home when I can't explain it
I don't have that answer. I'm not him, I'm not God.
I don't claim to be.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
I don't understand it all some times. But God has
an amazing way. But as long as he's waking you up,
I do know this, God ain't through with you yet.
God has a plan for you. Your job is to
identify identify the plan. You know, that's that's clearly what
I need for you to do. You know, oftentimes the

(03:20):
thing that you're looking for, it's right there inside of you.

Speaker 9 (03:25):
You know.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I can't tell you how many people I meet. Mister Harvey,
mister Harby. Can I speak to you for a minute? Yeah? Man,
what's up with you?

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Man?

Speaker 2 (03:33):
I was just wondering. Man, I've been trying to and
I want to know, man, can you give me a
good agent? Can you give me a good lawyer? Can
you give me a good Now? Look, if you got
some legal problems, I understand you're gonna need some help
right there. But the majority of questions I get asked
is about their future, about their place in this world,
about their mission, about what they're trying to do, how

(03:54):
they trying to figure out, and then the how to
go about doing it. But The answer I'm must remind
all of you is always within yourself. It starts right there.
See a lot of people burn up a lot of
time looking around trying to find someone. If I could
just meet them, if I could just get on her show. Man,

(04:17):
if all, if I could just get to his show,
I beating made it. That's not necessarily the case. Because See,
just like every time you put your put your faith
in a person or an event or currence or some
type of thing that you imagine yourself being in there

(04:38):
and that'll do it for you. Imagine of all the
people who've made it without you know, I look at everybody.
Tell me, Man, if I could get on so and
so show, that'll do it for me. Man, somebody else
got on that show and they blew up. Man, if
I could just make it to that show, do you
know how many people have made it without that? So, see,
when you start focusing in on what your idea of

(04:59):
how to make it is, and your idea of how
to make it does not include your relationship with God.
You spinning your wheels. Man, It's a vicious cycle you
in now, and I'm asking everybody to get out of
that cycle. Get out of looking for someone and something.
The answer is within you. God resides in you. That

(05:19):
burning thing that you have that you just can't get
out your head, that's a seed. God plant that there.
That's a seed. It needs watering, nurturing, fertilizing. That's what
it needs.

Speaker 9 (05:32):
It didn't it.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
Don't ever say, man, I need that other person right
there now. There are people you will meet that will
compliment you, and I can assure you that God will
put you in the right place at the right time.
I'm almost certain that God will introduce you to everybody
you need to be introduced to to make it to
wherever it is. You all are trying to get to
him talking about you and God now, But the moment

(05:54):
you take it into your own hands and you make
the decision as to who you got to get to
just clouded and muddied the waters. See God's plan for
you don't really need your help. Oh, it needs your attention,
It needs your focus, it needs your faith, and it
needs your hard work. But He needs you to listen.

(06:18):
He needs you to listen more than anything. Listen, keep
the faith and be willing to work your tail off.
I don't know how you think it can happen any
other way. But then again I do because I try
to make it another way. So I had to come
to the conclusion, Hey man, listen here, dog, this ain't

(06:39):
working for you. You got to get some more God, here, man,
listen to me. The answer was always within me, the
moment I sat down with myself and told myself the
truth that he partner, you ain't really all that, hey, partner,
regardless as to what people are seeing and stuff, you

(06:59):
ain't happy. Hey Pardner, this really ain't about you. Hey Pardner,
you really ain't all that good at this. God is
keeping you for a reason. Okay, hold up, Steve, quit tripping.
What I need to do. I just started talking to
myself and then I heard Bishop Jakes say a couple
of things. Then I was watching TV. I heard Joel

(07:20):
Oldstein say a couple of things and I went, wow, man, okay, cool,
that's pretty slick. I'm gonna try that. And when I
did it, it changed my life. I am telling you, man,
it has been God this whole time, and the God
has been residing inside of me, just like the God
resides on the inside of you. That's Him talking to you,

(07:42):
telling you, man, you ought to get it together. Man
making you feel bad. It's sending you on guilt trips,
you knowing you wrong, and you out there wrong and
something telling you you are not do it. Here's how
you know. It's God. And Bishop Alma taught me this
in his book He's Got I can't think of the
name of it right now, but it's a really good book.

(08:03):
But it says in that man. Bishop Olmer was talking
in this book and he was saying, the way you
know is not God's voice is if it ain't no
sin in it. See how many times have you made
up in your mind, I'm gonna show this person or
I'm gonna show that person, or I'm gonna get this
person back. You hurt me, I'm gonna hurt you. You

(08:26):
know the Lord don't like ugly. I'll show you. Well,
the Lord don't like ugly. But noway in that does
it's safe for you to go show them? It doesn't
say that. See, so when you strike out on that mission,
you know the God knows in my heart I loved you,
but I got to do this because you did me.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Who whah, whoah, who ain't got nothing to do with God?

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Right there? You can take him out of it. If
it's God, has no sin in it. So anytime somebody
come to me talking about the Lord told me to
do this to you, and that's the only reason not
doing it, you need to get yourself right with God.
I had all them threats right there. That ain't God
talking to me through you. What are you crazy? If

(09:09):
it's God, it has no sin in it. So you
got to be careful man, when you talking to people.
If we're gonna go down here and we're gonna do
this because this is the right thing to do, if
it has something wrong going on, then it can't be
the right thing to do. Took me a minute to
learn that one. But please get that through your head
so you can quit spinning yourself around and remember everything

(09:32):
you're looking for is within you. It's all right there.
Quit wasting your time looking around all the time. Go
to your God, man, talk to him. Go to that
spirit that's on the inside of you that's calling you.
Stop letting people shake your tree. At the end of
the day, somebody gonna be right, somebody gonna be wrong.

(09:52):
All right, y'all, we're gonna have to go on day
tripping a little bit, going.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Through something you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
Ladies and gentlemen, Boys and girls, your attention is required,
just for a brief second. Realize, acknowledge, please that God
has done it again, and He's done it for you.
He created this day for you. If it wasn't for you,

(10:24):
you wouldn't be involved in it. He did this for you.

Speaker 5 (10:28):
Come on, man, y'all.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
If I could get everybody on the same page with
waking up in the morning and realizing what a great
gift it is, it's such a blessing.

Speaker 10 (10:39):
Man.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
It stops some of the negative attitudes that some people
have when they wake up. No negative attitude, All gratitude. Baby, Yeah,
this is the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Shirley Strawberry calling
for real Mississippi, Monica Junior and the Legend of Nephew
Tommy Junior. Going on with you. Man, you've been happy
a lot lately.

Speaker 5 (11:01):
I'm pretty happy.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
I can say that.

Speaker 11 (11:04):
But let me ask you one thing up at the
end of the year, with the year, so have we
hit our goals? If you haven't hit your goals this year,
how would should you view this? If you haven't hit
all your goals this year?

Speaker 2 (11:18):
Could we, Bro, I ain't ever hit all my goals
in the year ever. Bro, ain't gonna need to wiping
yourself out about that one of these years, is Bro?
That may not be in God's timing perfect right, you know?
So see a lot of people. I'm glad you asked

(11:40):
that question because a lot of people throw themselves into
something when they don't reach your goal at a certain time,
that was your goal. Did you ever ask God what
he is was for you?

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (11:53):
I got it. I got it, man, I got exactly
what you're saying. This is my goal any way in
your goal? Did you say God's will be done? Come on, man, Man,
I'm just trying to tell you, man, it'll help you
so much. I'd see Juliard have done all that, been mad,
and myself for not accomplishing the goal at a certain time,

(12:15):
get mad because the deal didn't go down at a
certain way I wanted to go down in a certain
amount of time. Then you know what I had to realize,
Sometimes God don't let something happen for your own good.

Speaker 6 (12:29):
Brother.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Let me tell you something, man, if everything had jumped
off that I wanted to jump off, I'd be in trouble. Doug,
I'll be in some real trouble right now. If every
woman that I thought was fine thought I was fine,
do you know the trouble I'd be in right now.
I'm so grateful. Several of them said you not my type?

Speaker 3 (12:56):
Thank you?

Speaker 1 (12:57):
What did that one lady say about your face? Sure,
I'll never forget that one.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
You'll never forget it because I can't believe I don't
like your facial features for her. I'm in the ninth grade.
That's a hard win to take, see it in how
plastic surgery wasn't even would nobody talked about that, And
even if they talked about it, I didn't have no
money for him. And all they had back then was

(13:24):
a facelift. Looked like somebody was standing behind you with
their foot on the back of your head, just pulling
your jaws apart. That's what it looked like. So yeah,
everybody looked like the joker back then. Oh wow.

Speaker 6 (15:09):
No, this isn't a follow up. Actually, we're got a
couple of glitches we want to try and get get
straightened out if we could find Well, here's here's the problem, sir.
The problem we're having is that the contractor that actually
built you off home, yes, has not paid for the doors.
You guys have been there two and a half months,
and we can't seem to get the contractor to come

(15:31):
in and pay for the doors. To call them. We've
tried to call them several times and we have not
been able to.

Speaker 12 (15:37):
Wait on him because you don't have a good number.
I can give you a number, because I really don't
have anything to do with that, that's fact. How do
you get my number?

Speaker 6 (15:46):
Well, actually, we had your number one file as the homeowner,
and that's pretty much how we had you. But the
problem we're facing here, sir, is we've tried to get
this guy for the last couple of months and we
can't get him. So, actually, what's what's going to happen
here and the next day or so is we're probably
gonna have to come and get all the doors.

Speaker 13 (16:04):
Oh no, ways can do what.

Speaker 6 (16:05):
We're probably gonna have to come and get all the
doors in your house, take them off and bring them
back here to the plant until week we're.

Speaker 13 (16:12):
Gonna go get all my doors.

Speaker 6 (16:14):
We we're gonna have to get those doors until either
we get a contractor or you know, we get paid
for the doors. Now, what could happen is you could
pay for the doors.

No, no, no, already paid for the doors.

Speaker 7 (16:24):
That's that's that's past tense.

Speaker 13 (16:26):
I've done that paid. You say't paying? That means I
got to double back.

Speaker 6 (16:30):
Well, sir, we haven't been paid, sir for the doors
as well.

Speaker 13 (16:33):
No, no, no, the contractor was paid for the doors.

we haven't been paid at all here at doors were all.

Speaker 12 (16:45):

received a check from my contract.

This is from Harlow and Saginaw. Harlow writes, I'm twenty
seven years old and my fiance is thirty four. At
our engagement party, my fiance joked about how he snuck
around to date when I was a freshman in college.

(23:06):
How we snuck around to date. Now, my dad thinks
he's a pervert. How do I change my dad's perception
of my fiance?

Speaker 2 (23:17):
So that's seven years so he was out in college eighteen,
he was twenty five. Yeah, he was out of college. Yeah,
well you know that's what. Shouldn't have told the story,
that's all sometimes just shut your mouth. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, I guess you thought it was funny. Yeah, yeah,
that's one of the.

Speaker 9 (23:46):
Hell you know?

Speaker 1 (23:49):
All right, So how does she change her dad's perception?

Speaker 2 (23:54):
You ain't? You ain't.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Dad will never like him.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
I mean, guess what why you tell that story? Dog?

Speaker 10 (24:19):
Moving on to joy in Little Rock, Joyce says, my
marriage is very open, but not by choice. I could
either accept that my husband has other women, or I
could leave him and start from scratch. I haven't worked
in eight years, so it may not be wise to
leave him. We do still have sex, but he wears protection.
Should I stay and let him continue to take care

(24:41):
of me. Wow feel.

Speaker 6 (24:48):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (24:50):
You have protection with your wife?

Dog?

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Were you out here? You trippy? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Thank god?

Speaker 2 (24:57):
So you ain't worked in eight years, so you don't
think you are to leave. But you know he you
in an open marriage and it's not by your choice,
but he got a lot of other women. And when
y'all do have sex, you have protection. That's the life
you want. When you were saying your vows, is that
what you was thinking when you was growing up as
a little girl wanting to get married? Is this what

(25:17):
you were thinking. I don't care if I ain't worked
in eight years. Man, Hey, listen to me, you still
ain't got to work. Hear what you do, get you
some proof that he cheating, get you a divorce, and
get half afirm.

Yeah, because she thinks she has no option.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
Who ain't got no that's what she thinks.

Speaker 1 (25:47):

Moving on last one. This is Roberta and Omaha. Roberta writes,
I'm dating a drunk. He drinks so much wine that
it doesn't phaze him anymore. He can work, drive, and
have a logical conversation with me after drinking a whole
bottle of wine. It's normal for him. Her question is
should I stop bothering him about drinking?

Speaker 1 (28:54):
That's what she wants to know.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Well, it's wine, right, so it has a lower alcohol
content than liquor.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
If you can drink a whole bottle of wine and
it don't do nothing to you, eventually you're gonna want
it to do something to you, or you're gonna try
something nels You could be she dated or marriage to him.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
She's dating him. She's saying, I'm dating or drunk.

This is where it is going. Goodness, I'm dating a drunk.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Yeah, he drinks so much wine that it doesn't even
base him anymore.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
He said, oh yeah, yeah, he's a functioning alcoholic. Possibly,
but if you're dating or drunk, you will marry an alcoholic.

Colo and got the caine out on them.

Speaker 7 (30:25):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
Coming up at the top of the hour, we will
have some entertainment news for you right after this. You're
listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Well, guys.

Speaker 10 (30:38):
According to CNN, yesterday, the House approved a bill to
end the longest forty three day government shut down in
US history forty three days. President Trump signed the funding
package to officially reopen the government temporarily until January twentieth
of next year. However, it will take time for things

(30:59):
to get back to normal. Hundreds of flights in the
US were canceled daily. There were air traffic control staffing problems.
Federal workers were furloughed and some worked without pay and
now hopefully SNAP recipients will start getting their payment. As
we know, the shutdown started with issues with Obamacare, or
the Affordable Care Act, and Medicaid funding. According to multiple

(31:22):
media outlets, Congress planned. Congress's plans does not extend Affordable
Care Act subsidies, a major goal of Democrats during the shutdown,
but leaves the door open for future negotiations.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
They just wanted to get it done.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Okay, let me explain some to THEYDK. That's what it
seems like to regular pear folks. They're not going to negotiate.
The Republicans are going to ram this thing down their
throat like they've always wanted to. Now they got hurt
in this past election. There are a lot of places
went blue because of the way they're being treated. But

(31:59):
you know what, but this party, this Republican party, does
not care about the common man. And the reason that
this Republican party does not care about the common man
is because the administration does not care about the common man.
So the administration tells the Senators and the congressmen how

(32:21):
to vote based on the administration. This is all projects
twenty twenty twenty five they're gonna remove all that. Aymn,
these premiums fitting the skyrocket in January, people gonna lose
now affordable health care. It was it was never a
perfect plan, but it was a dog going pretty good
for a lot of people. It was a it was

(32:41):
a dog going pretty good. Yeah, and I got that.
It ain't perfect, No, it can't be. But when you
remove it, it's gonna be make America great again. It's
gonna go back to what it was. An insurance companies,
man will put you into the category of pre existing condition,
y'all out. You know, when your children get a certain age,

(33:05):
they out and you got to come back to these
insurance companies and buy these policies. That's who gave the
money for him to be elected.

Speaker 15 (33:14):
It's really sad because it doesn't affect them, so they
don't care. But the cost of care, it's unbelievable. We
don't even talk about medication, we're talking about all that.
We're just talking about going to the doctor and talking
about rocket.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
But you know, you do know this, folks, that senators
and congressmen have one of the best medical coverage packages available.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
I'm sure really, and they got their checked too.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
For the.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Yeah, a vacation for them, really pay vacation. Sad, sad
state of affairs.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
That's really sad. I just don't see how as voters
we don't see what happening and we elected this mess.

Speaker 10 (34:02):
Yeah, yeah, a lot of them do, but still too
many don't. Still too many are riding with him on
this foolish I.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Just don't understand holding the party line when the party
line ain't got nothing to do with the people who
got to go get in line. That's my problem with it. Yeah, yeah,
yah man, that this is crazy and this country can
easily afford this. You playing with people snap benefits and stuff.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
That's crazy. Yeah. And they don't even get using this system.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
How And we're not giving no SNAP to illegal aliens.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
You can't you can't food though, yeah. And other news.

Wednesday ended production of the penny, a change made to
save money and because the one cent coin that could
once by a snack or a piece of candy had
become increasingly irrelevant. Despite its demise, the penny will remain

legal tender, which means it can be used for transactions,
so you know, until they run out, I guess or whatever.

was so stupid for asking him these questions. Wow, well

(41:00):

Speaker 6 (41:06):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
Leroy from Monroe coming up next to me.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
I'm eleven, now, Bra, I'm eleven. I'm trying to get it.

Speaker 1 (41:14):
You were eleven?

Speaker 10 (41:15):
Hey, yeah, Steve, more calls when we come back. You're
listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, back to the
phones we go, Steve, to check your voicemail. Eight seven
seven twenty nine, Steve, this caller left a message about
yesterday's asked the Colo segment. You remember the discussion we

(41:36):
had about the mom who slapped her son's girlfriend because
a girlfriend slapped the sun.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
All right, so this is what this call is about.

Speaker 17 (41:43):
Okay, So I'm listening to y'all talk about the girl
who slapped her boyfriend in front of the mom, and
the mom slapped her. So I had to get my
little two points on it, Like if my son's girlfriend
slapped him, I probably was superback. But I think the
bigger issue is Jack Gardens, is that the girl slapped
him in front of his mother. That is so disrespectful,

(42:05):
and then the father wants that I ask her to say,
he gonna jump on the side. You should have talked
your daughter. How tod one have managed to have respect
for our elder Because whatever y'all do behind closed doors,
y'all do behind closed doors. But you slapped my son
in my face. No, I'm slapping you back because you're abusive.
And if it was the opposite way around, if a
man slapt a woman in front of the whole room,
it it way crazy. Can't be a double standard.

Speaker 2 (42:26):
Yeah, I understand what you're saying. I partly agree with
what you said, but it is a double standard. Yeah,
I got with it, Kate B.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
But this is what it is.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
This is the world we live in. It's a double standard.
The I think you're absolutely correcting what you're saying about
the girl should have never slapped the boy. I got that,
and should have never slapped him in front of the mother.
That's so disrespectful. Right, But when you slap this girl,
you introduced another element to it. See, two wrongs don't
make it right. I don't care how you look at it.

(42:56):
And it's set off a domino effect. Now the man
talking about when I see your son, I'm slapping him, well, yeah,
he should have taught his daughter all this. I got
all that, and you are one correct. But once somebody
don't stop the foolishness, the foolishness spreads. Yeah, it's just
gold Man. So that's why I was saying that the

(43:18):
mother should apologize to just reduce this because your son,
because you slap this girl, her daddy wants some type
of restitution or retribution whatever the word is. And now
your son is on the line, and you can stop
this with an apology, because see, when men get involved
is different.

Speaker 10 (43:38):
All right, caller left to comment about one has to
go the game we play, Hey Loo, good.

Speaker 18 (43:44):
Morning, you guys.

Speaker 6 (43:46):

Oh you're wrong, she said for you. Oh that where
you're wrong?

Speaker 6 (44:49):
First of all. Yeah, she said that.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
I enjoy Sister Odelle because Sister Odelle gets to say
some stuff that I can ain't safe. Roscoe Wallace, I
love the fact that he is an old lounge singer
that never made it but won'ts credit for everything. Yes,

(45:13):
he z, I actually met a lounge singer named Roscoe.
Last name went Wallace, but he was singing at a lounge.
I was staying at a holiday inn. Express one time

an amplifier and a recorder. He was horrible, but he

(45:34):
thought he was everything and a lot of these Sister
Odell takes me back to my mama's church and allows
me to have a moment with sister or Nail Porter. Yes,
and so that's what. Yeah, that's go ahead.

What about it?

Speaker 2 (49:05):
Well, now, it seems that here on.

Speaker 9 (49:08):
Some of the footage that we have on camera, that
it's a possibility that it seems like your sister's actually
wearing some of the merchandise that we sell here in
the store.

Speaker 19 (49:18):
Okay, just because she wears something that we sell in
the store, don't mean that I've stole it.

Speaker 9 (49:24):
Well, we don't see where she's act. I've backed the
footage up as far as I could. I don't see
any footage of where she purchased this particular merchandise.

Speaker 2 (49:33):
And my assumption is maybe you gave it to her.

Speaker 19 (49:36):
I gave her And just because you don't see what
somebody purchased it don't mean that it's been stolen.

Speaker 9 (49:42):
Okay, here's what I'm gonna get. I'm gonna just get
to the chase of this, Tanya. What I'm gonna have
to do is this if I can't get you to
come to the store, ma'am. And matter of fact, here's
another question for you before I go any further. You
have children at all, Tanya?

Speaker 6 (49:58):

Thank you.

Speaker 10 (56:47):
Nephew's subject the security guard knows my husband. Dear Stephen Shirley.
I work at a large company with three offices in
one city. I'm a consultant and I work from home,
but once a month I visited the offices to check
in with my team. One guy on my team was
flirting with me for months, and last month he called

(57:07):
me and told me to be sure to stop by
his office before I left. I went to see him
and he asked me to take a walk with him.
We walked to his car and he had roses on
the seat and lunch from Popeyes. I sat in the
car and ate the cold chicken with him because it
was a nice gesture. He opened up about the many
dreams he's had of us making love. Then he said

(57:30):
he never dreamed it would be in a car. I
was caught off guard by that statement, but it made
me want to have sex with him in a car
for the first time, just because I'd never done anything
spontaneous like that. I cheated on my hubby before, and
I regretted it. In that short period of time, while
I ate my cold chicken, I told myself that I

(57:51):
should try this guy out in the car and then
I'd never have to see him again. I asked if
he had some form of protection, and his face lit up.
We moved to the back seat and we got down
to it. His windows are tenants, so it was perfect.
It was not until I climbed off the back seat
looking a hot mess, that I saw the security guard

(58:13):
on the golf cart staring at me. I realized who
the security guard was, he's been to our house before
and he knows my husband. I told my coworker to
stay in the car, and he did. I went over
and spoke to the security guard and asked if we
are good, and he smiled and said it's cool. I
told my husband I saw the guy, and he said

(58:35):
he hasn't seen him in years. I breathed a sigh
of relief. Can I trust the security guard to keep
this between us? What a crazy question? I mean, who
knows if you can trust him or not? I mean,
I know your husband can't trust you, that is what
I do know. And it's interesting that you didn't think someone,

(58:56):
I mean anyone would see you guys in the back seat,
that you didn't care or think that somebody might see you.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
I don't get that from you at all.

Speaker 10 (59:08):
He must have been really close to the security guard
because you said the guy's windows were tenant. So your
question really is do Steve and I think he'll tell
your husband that really is your question.

Speaker 1 (59:20):
He might and he might not.

Speaker 10 (59:21):
I mean, I'm going to say no at this point
because he's a man, and men don't usually get that
deep with it like some women do, you know?

Speaker 1 (59:29):
And tell everything.

Speaker 10 (59:31):
But what he might do the security guard is hold
it over your head for his benefit, like he might try.

Speaker 1 (59:37):
To sleep with you in the future or something like that.

Speaker 10 (59:39):
So if you don't have a problem with giving the
security guard some if he asked, don't worry about it.
It wouldn't be the first time, right or the second
time that you cheated on your husband. And yes I
am judging, Yes I am, Steve.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
Let me just start about saying in this letter right here,
beyond overjoyed that you are not my wife. I mean,
you're just you easy. A box of Popeye' chicken at all.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
It took in a wall.

Speaker 2 (01:00:18):
And some roses on the back seat. These roses was
purchased either on the way in at the dude on
the corner or hard it was purchased at the grocery store.
But either way, the guy played it because he knew
you was coming in, because you told him, because in

(01:00:40):
the flirting you told him, will I'll be there on
a certain day. Why you think that chicken and the roses.

Speaker 6 (01:00:48):
Was in the car.

Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
This wasn't a person, This wasn't a perchance meeting, y'all.
See she left that part out. He knew see it
ain't no. Oh she coming today? No, no, no, cause
you don't know what day she coming. She go once
a month. They had talked and he knew she was coming.

(01:01:11):
That's why he said, make sure you stop by my
office walk with me. They go outside for a walk.
He walked to the car, some roses on the back
seat and some chicken. I wish that's all it took.

(01:01:32):
I spent way too much money, way too much money.
I don't know what I'm doing. I have got to
I wish I had met you thirty years ago. Dog,
I wish i'd met this man thirty years ago so
he could tell me what he says to women to

(01:01:54):
make them give it up for a box of chicken.
I just need to know what you say. Man, it's popeyes.
That's strong.

Speaker 13 (01:02:06):
I didn't know.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
I've been all that old Becky. I've been down the
olive garden with him. I started, Man. The first big
date I thought was strong was a restaurant in Cleveland
called the Brown Derby. Then when I got on the road, boy,
if I met one boy, we was at Red Lost.

Speaker 15 (01:02:28):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:02:28):
I knew all the dope to Red Lobster, because you
get the biscuits and then Olive Garden because you got
that salad in that bread. But little did I know
all that sitting down ordering off for menu and and
getting and getting having to tip somebody.

Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
Popeyes.

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
I'll be dunk on Popeyes. All right, this levels to
this player thing.

Speaker 10 (01:02:59):
Well, Part two of your response coming up at twenty
three minutes after the hour today Strawberry letters, subject is
the security guard.

Speaker 1 (01:03:08):
Knows my husband. We'll get back into it right after this.

Speaker 10 (01:03:13):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Hey, everyone,
quick health question. Even though you're still thriving, still loving,
still connecting, did you know your immune system weakens with age.
That's where vaccines come in. They help train and strengthen
your immune response to fight off certain respiratory illnesses like flu,

(01:03:36):
new macacle, pneumonia, RSV, and COVID nineteen this fall, ask
your doctor which vaccines you need and visit vacxisist dot com.
That's vaxsist dot com to schedule one or more of
vaccines sponsored by Pfizer. All right, come on, Steve, let's
recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject is the security guard

(01:03:56):
knows my husband.

Speaker 2 (01:03:59):
This woman works from home and but they're the big company.
They got three offices in the city. She's married, but
she's a cheatah, because she visited the offices once a
month to check in with her team. There's one guy
on the team that's been flirting with her, and last

(01:04:21):
month he called me and told me to be sure
to stop by his office before I left. So she
go see him and he asked her to take a
walk with him, and they went to his car and
he had roses on the back seat, but he had
lunch from Popeyes, so she said. They got in the

(01:04:44):
car and she decided to eat the cold chicken because
it was a nice gesture. Okay, all right, cool. He
opened up about all the dreams he didne had about.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
Them making love. My man, they wasted no time.

Speaker 2 (01:04:59):
Then he said he never dreamed that it would be
in a car. Then here what she said. I was
caught off god by that statement. But it made me
want to have sex in the car for the first time.
That's a lie, all that, that's just a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
It wasn't the first.

Speaker 2 (01:05:23):
No, hell no, hell no.

Speaker 15 (01:05:28):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:05:30):
After he said that statement, it made me want to
have sex in the car for the first time. What
how that's your first time thinking about having sex in
a car? Who ain't thought of that in high school?
Who ain't thought of that in college? The girl die
just because I've never done anything spontaneous like that? Who

(01:05:51):
are you talking to? You don't just climb in the
backseat of cars while you at work on lunch break
eating Popeye because it's the first You've never done anything
spontaneous like that.

Speaker 3 (01:06:04):
Girl.

Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
Stop, I've cheated on my husband before, and right there,
let's list back this up right here. I've cheated on
my husband before. So now what makes you think that
that statement you said a second ago? You've never done
anything spontaneous like this, lady. You've been tricking so hard

(01:06:26):
in that short period of time. While I ate my
cold chicken, I told myself, I should try this guy
out in the car and then I never have to
see him again. What how that's the plan. I'm gonna
climb in this car with him and try him out,
because then I never have to see him again. I

(01:06:48):
asked if he had some form of protection. His face
lit up. We moved to the back seat and we
got to it. His wonders, this tenant, so it was perfect.
You knew that it was not until I climbed out
the back seat and look at a hot mess that.
I saw the security guard on the golf car staring
at me. I realized who the security guard was. He's

(01:07:09):
been to our house before and he knows my husband.
I told my coworker to stay in the car, and
he did. I went over and spoke to the security guard. Now,
so if we're good. He smiled and said, it's cool.
Oh yeah, it ain't. No, ain't no problem, It's cool.
I told my husband I saw the guy, and he

(01:07:30):
said he ain't seen him in years. I breathed a
sigh of relief. Can I trust the security guard to
keep this between us? Wait a minute, did you just
use the word trust? Can you trust the security guard?

Speaker 14 (01:07:50):
Can?

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
If I trust you your new lover, he can't trust
you because you're talking about if you give him something
right now, might not have to see him no more.
But I bet you will though. And you know how
I know called Popeyes is still open. You can't turn
down no chicken? Where do you women at? I been

(01:08:15):
going about this the wrong way. Cars and swimming pool
and houses, shrips, coats, rags, shoe boxes. All I need?

Speaker 13 (01:08:34):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:08:35):
Just some chickens, Spicy girl, ain't no telling what to happen.
Extra crunching girl. If I come up with some spicy
extra crispys, whoa boy, we're gonna be in here clouded
for days. Couple extra biscuits with some honey.

Speaker 5 (01:08:58):

He says, my nephew is more fun than my we'll
talk about it right after this. You're listening to the
Steve Harvey Morning Show. This is from Gary on Steve

(01:14:11):
Harvey FM. Gary says, over the summer, I spent a
lot of time with my brother and his kids, and
we had fun. This past week, my wife confronted me,
asking me why I seem to enjoy spending more time
with my nephews than with our own kids, and I said,
because I do. They don't whine they don't ask me
for stuff constantly, they don't constantly talk about all the

(01:14:32):
things they don't have, and they're more fun. I'm now
learning that this was the wrong thing to say, even
if I was thinking it. How do I get back
into my wife's good graces and enjoy being around my
own kids again?

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
I don't know why you said that.

Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
Point Wow, he was thinking.

Speaker 2 (01:14:52):
And number one, you raised them. You raised the whiners
and complainers, You raised the talking about what that ain't
got you. You raised him. So now, yeah, you go
over your brother's house, they ain't gotta ask you for
nothing because they got a daddy. So broh, I just
think you are You raised the kids the wrong way.

(01:15:13):
You want them to act a certain way. You want
them to act like your nephews and nieces. But bro,
but you shouldn't have said that. You ain't gonna get
that one back, non You fin to eat that sandwich.
That's your sandwich. Dog, You finn to eat that, hope

name to a subway Jersey Mike's Yeah, firehouse, you need

(01:15:37):

eating on that one for a while.

Speaker 10 (01:15:40):
Bro.

Speaker 1 (01:15:41):
Wow, all right, we have another one. This is from
Lisa and Steve Harvey FM. Lisa says, my.

Speaker 10 (01:15:46):
Best friend and I have kids who are close in age,
and over the past couple of years she became really
into gentle parenting. However, her six year old son gets
away with everything. He hits, throws toys when he doesn't
get his way, and she just calm lee talks it
through while the rest of us are trying to keep
our own kids from getting hurt. I love her dearly,

(01:16:09):
but I've started dreading our playdates because her son's behavior
is so out of control. Would I be a terrible
friend if I gently told her that her approach just
isn't working and her kid as.

Speaker 2 (01:16:20):
Bad as you know what, well, y'all not gonna be
friends no more. Oh so know that because you're not
only gonna talk to her about her parenting, you're gonna
be talking about her child. So I don't see how
this's gonna work out for you.

Speaker 9 (01:16:36):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:16:37):
I have experience with that because I have an employee
that does gentle parenting, and I had him over at
the house with the grandkids playing in the pool, and
then my couple other people bought their kids and they
playing in the pool. Well, this little boy, when he

(01:16:57):
liked you, he grabbed your face cheeks with his hands
because you know, he and squeeze. I mean, man, this
looking that's wrong like you. But he gritted his teeth
on and you know, and he did this to this
little black girl.

Speaker 9 (01:17:16):
And she.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
And the father was right there, one of my son's friends.
He said, hey, man, the f wrong with you?

Speaker 6 (01:17:26):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:17:26):
He talking to the baby. Now the baby ain't even two.
He didn't ask the not two year old, what the
earth wrong with you?

Speaker 3 (01:17:35):
I heard him.

Speaker 2 (01:17:36):
The parents they don't do down't do nothing. They just
sit over there. So I went over there and pulled
him to the side. I say, hey, brother, because this
is my son's friend. I said, hey, brother, listen to this.
They do genter parent She said, ma'am. But mister Harvey,
did you see the way he grabbed my baby face.
I said, yes, sir, he do that all the time.
He said, what they gonna do? I said, they ain't

(01:17:57):
gonna do that. He said, well, I'm gonna do something.
I said, yeah, I know, I know how you feel,
but don't do that. Though, don't don't do it. I've
watched it man, I've seen gentle parenting up close, because
there's a lot of it nowadays. But what I try
to teach people who do that, I've actually pulled them
to the side and say, hey, let me explain something

(01:18:18):
to You have a little boy. If you do not
introduce the term discipline to your little boy, you're going
to have an undisciplined boy. If you have an undisciplined boy,
two things are gonna happen. He gonna go to prison
or somebody gonna do something to him. You can't be
a boy and not have discipline. You can't be a
girl and don't have discipline. So you need to introduce

(01:18:40):
discipline to your children. I don't know how you got
them thinking they can do what they want to do.
That's my closing remarks today.

Speaker 1 (01:18:45):
All right, well, thank you.

Speaker 10 (01:18:47):
Coming up, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning
Show right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey
Morning Show. So when you're when you're an a relationship,
you should have each other's back.

Everybody agrees with that, right, and you're in a relationship.

Speaker 10 (01:19:06):
Yeah yeah, all right, So according to your tango, here

out of here, we have a voicemail call for you.

Speaker 2 (01:25:25):
Are you ready?

Speaker 10 (01:25:27):
This is a longtime fan of yours. He had a
question about your your first TV show, Me and the Boys.

Speaker 1 (01:25:34):
Take a listen.

Speaker 14 (01:25:35):
Good morning, Steve Harvey.

Speaker 2 (01:25:36):
Out do you do?

Speaker 14 (01:25:38):
I hope all as well with y'all enjoying your show.
I have one question. You used to have a TV
show called Me and the Boys on Channel seven. I'd
just like to know what happened with the TV show.
It's a real good, inspirational show, encouraging for a single
black man.

Speaker 2 (01:25:58):
Okay, wow, that's a great question, because, man, nothing has
ever happened in television like what happened on Me and
the Boys. Me and the Boys was me, Matt Sinclair,
Chas Shepherd and two other boys, and I was a
single father of three boys whose wife had deceased, and

(01:26:20):
my mother in law moved in with me to help
me with the boys. Great storyline. The show was a really,
really good show and it finished the season at number
twenty one, twenty one. It was the top new show
on ABC that year. But ABC had cut a deal

(01:26:42):
with this guy. I think his name was Matt Williams.
I think that's his name, but he was the creative
Home Improvement, and the deal that he had cut with
ABC was if his show finished in the top ten,
he could have the time slot either behind it or
in front of it. I don't remember which one it was.
Improvement finished in the top ten that year Tim Allen.

(01:27:03):
Tim Allen and I were friends for back in the
Stand Up Day, so ABC honored that. But the show
that came on before Home Improvement was Me and the Boys,
So they took Me and the Boys off the air
to honor the commitment to Matt Williams. It was the
highest rated TV show to ever be removed from national

(01:27:24):
TV in the history of television. No new show had
finished ever twenty one and been canceled for Me, so
they canceled Me and the Boys. Me and the Boys
was off the air. I found out on May tenth
that we weren't coming back. I went out to LA
I met with Ted Herbert, who was the president of ABC.

(01:27:46):
I walked into the office of having a meeting. The
lady said he wasn't available. I sat in the lobby
for hour and a half, two hours till I saw it.
He looked up the hallway and saw me. He said,
see what's going on, man, come on back. I said, hey, man,
y'all counsel the show and that's cool. He said, hey, yeah,
but we're offering you a holding deal right now. I said, well,

(01:28:07):
I need a bigger holding deal. I said, man, it
was really I felt really unfair the way it was done,
and I would appreciate a bigger holding deal. So he said,
how much do you want At the time, back in
ninety five, I asked for four hundred thousand dollars, which
is a really large holding deal for a newcomer. He said, Steve,

(01:28:34):
I'm gonna give you the four hundred thousand. Two days
later he gave me four hundred thousand, and I flew
back to Texas bought my very first home I've ever
owned in Plano, Texas. The house was one point one
million dollars. I got it for nine hundred and forty

(01:28:55):
two thousand. I gave the man the whole four hundred
thousand as a down payment because I didn't have no credit.
You know, I had been homeless and starving, and I
gave a man four hundred thousand and he financed the
house myself. That's how I got my very first house,

(01:29:15):
and was when I gave him the money. All I
had left was one thousand dollars, but my house note
was two thousand and six hundred. But I was a
stand up and I knew I could make twenty six
hundred out on the road. So I just went out
on the road and start doing. In the meantime, the
WB got formed and they bought my four hundred thousand
dollars contract from ABC, and so now I belonged to

(01:29:38):
the WB. And the WB came to me and said,
we have a show idea for you. We're gonna be
a school teacher, and we're gonna put you in a
Chicago school setting, and you have a best friend, and
your best friend we decided it's going to be George
Winn from Cheers. That was Norman the mailman. Yeah, he

(01:30:01):
said he gonna be your best friend. I said, well,
I don't even know him. I said, I met this
guy one time. Name said you to entertainer. Y'all should
try him. They said, we've never heard of him. I said, well,
bring him out and let him read. So it came
they got hold of said just to appease me. They said, no,
we like George went better. He's famous and all this,

(01:30:22):
I said, Now I'd rather do it. What said the entertainer? Man,
So now I put my foot down for the first
time and said you either get me. Said I don't
want to do the show. So he gave me. Said
that was the birth of the Steve Harvey Show.

Speaker 1 (01:30:35):
Wow. Wow, that's the story behind men boys.

Speaker 2 (01:30:42):
That's how that's how the Steve Harvey Show got started
because I had met said in eighty nine at my
comedy club, Steve Harvey's caravan of funny funky friends at
vu Kua Nightclub, and said was performing at a punt
at a funny Bone, and they canceled him when he
got out in town because they had two blacks on
the show, and back then you couldn't have two blacks

(01:31:04):
on the show. So dude named Percy Cruz called me
up and said, hey man, my buddy said is in town.
He gotta go home. Can he come over and do
a set for you? So I said yeah, so say
it came over. I met him. I said, hey man,
I'm gonna let you do five minutes. If you do good,
I'll bring you back sometime. Said went up there and
killed So I bought him back the next night gave

(01:31:26):
him one hundred and fifty dollars. He made one hundred
and fifty. I bought him back two weeks later, gave
him a headline give for one thousand dollars. He had
never headline. That's how me and said met. We've been
tight every since. Sweet noops, those my clothes remarks today.
Hope you enjoyed that story. It was facts, though, all

(01:31:47):
facts in the life of Steve Harvey. God be good
to me, man, Thank you helping me. Father, I show
appreciate it. Hey, y'all talk to God today. Love to
hear from you.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
