Speaker 1 (00:26):
Thank you nephew. Subject He asked to see it, and
I heard him. Dear Stephen Shirley, My husband and I
have an auto detailing shop, but we make the most
money with our mobile detailing truck. My husband has been
running the mobile detailing business all by himself because he
said he can't find anyone that's as good as he is.
Most of his mobile customers are single females that don't

(00:49):
like going to a car wash. I go by the
shop daily to pick up the cash so I can
deposit it. I was there the other day and I
overheard a female telling my detail shop manager that she
had to stop getting mobile detailing because the owner was
flirting with her and her husband didn't like it since
she was talking about my husband. I asked the shop

(01:10):
manager if she said anything else about my husband being
inappropriate while he was working. The manager minimized the whole
complaint by saying, the customer is an airhead that thinks
all men want her. I could see that in her,
so I didn't dwell on it. The next day, my
husband was on a deck smoking a cigar and I
could see him on the camera smiling and talking on

(01:32):
the phone. I turned the sound on so I could
listen to his conversation. I heard him asking for a
picture of something. He asked for a sneak peek, a
full view, and then he asked the person to touch
whatever it was that he wanted to see. I started
talking to him through the camera and it startled him.

(01:53):
He hung up without saying bye, and he came in
the house. He said he was talking to a guy
about a scrap on his car. The guy wanted to
see if he could buffet out without having to sand
and repaint it. I don't believe that. My intuition tells
me he's a cheater. My intuition tells me he was
asking to see some part of a female's body. Do

(02:14):
I need more proof before I accuse him of lying?
Now you know in your soul he was talking to
a woman, and yes, he was asking to see it
and touch and for her to touch herself.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
You heard that, period.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
I don't care how he tried to spin it with
those lies he told you after you startled him on
the phone. That's what it was. There's nothing wrong with
your ears. You heard what you heard. Why did he
hang up the phone so abruptly when you started talking
to him? Why was he smoking a cigar and smiling about?
What was he smoking and smiling about? What was that

(02:50):
all about? If it was business?

Speaker 2 (02:51):
It was?

Speaker 1 (02:52):
If it was just business. And a scratch doesn't have
to be touched to see that it's a scratch. You
can just point to a scratch. There's nothing wrong with
a little harmless flirting. I get that from time to time.
But your husband is out there doing the most in
these streets. I think you should get in that truck
and start going on these mobile detailing jobs with him. Steve.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
First of all, let's just go on to deal with
the you know, relationship record herself, who just has destroyed
another relationship. Try to step in here and try to
salvage what I can of the remaining relationship that these
poor people have. Lord, have mercy forgive us this day.
Our daily bread boy is boring so much damn trouble

(03:34):
in this letter. But Lord, how can I help him?
You know, it's hard help for fool sometimes because I
already know what Shereley gonna do, seek and destroy. She's
on a mission and already them as many as she can, obviously,
and I understand that it usually comes to the aid

(03:55):
of the woman to try to offer her but mostly
in out other hand, come with a different mission in
mind to all diversity in the letter. My husband and
I got an auto detailing shop and we make the
most money with our mobile detailing truck. I stopped by
the business every day to pick up the money. The

(04:15):
problem is most of his customers happened to be single
females that don't like going to car washing.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
You know, So I you know all this here.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
So you overheard one of your shop managers talking to
a customer that says she had to stop the mobile
detailing because the owner was flirting with her and her
husband didn't like it. Now, minute ago, you just said
most of the customers were single females. Now that lady married,
got a husband. So you know what are you hearing?

Speaker 2 (04:43):
So let's find out what you heard.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
He said that my manager said that she had to
stop because the owner was flirting with her. So you
asked the manager, did she say anything else about your
husband saying.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Anything that might be in appropriate?

Speaker 3 (04:58):
The manager kind of shut the whole thing down by
saying that she's an ad head and she thinks all
men want her. You said yourself, I can see that
in her, because women can see things. My husband was
on the deck smoking a cigar. This is why I
come in at because I too smoked cigars and I

(05:19):
am a man, so I specialized in this. I could
see him on the camera smiling and talking on the phone.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
This is where the letter.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
Gets cloudy for me. He was smiling and talking on
the phone. I turned up the sounds so I could
listen to his conversation. Now she turned up the sound
on what that's what I didn't understand. Camera the camera, Oh,
she got one.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
She could see him on camera talking on the phone,
so she turned okay, and I.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
Heard him asking for a picture of something. He asked
for a sneak peek a full view, and then he
asked the person to touch whatever it was that he
wanted to see. I started talking to him through the
camera and it startled him. He hung up without saying
goodbye and came in the house. He said he was

(06:16):
talking to a guy about a scratch on his car,
and the guy wanted to see if he could buffet
out without having the sand and repaint it.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I don't believe that.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
Mind tuition tells me he's a cheator, a cheetah, and
my tuition tells me he was asking to see some
part of a female body. Do I need more proof
before I accuse him of lying?

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Well, I'm worth two of Steve's response coming up at
twenty three minutes after the hour. My Strawberry letter for today.
The subject is he asked to see it, and I
heard him. We'll get back into it right after this.
You're listening Morning show, All right, Come on, Steve, let's
recap today's Strawberry letter. Subject he has to see it,

(06:58):
and I heard him.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
This lady and her husband have the mobile detail shop.
She was over at the shop one day collecting the
money and overheard the customer talking to one of the managers,
saying she had to stop the mobile detailing bussiness that
makes most of their money because the one of the
guys was flirting with her and her husband didn't like it.
So then you knew she was talking about your husband.

(07:23):
So you went up to the manager, say did she
say anything else her husband did was inappropriate? The manager
played it off and shot it down by saying, she's
an airhead. She think all women, all men won't hurt
you said yourself. You could see that. But then the
next day your husband was out on the deck smoking
a cigar on the phone.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Smiling, laughing, cigar on his head.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
This is where Shirley proceeds to destroy another man whatever,
to seek and destroy mission she is on. I am
here to try to offer some type of vice. Well,
but you know it not necessarily a lie, surely, because
you don't know now. Anyway, he heard her say asking

(08:17):
for a picture of something. He asked for a sneak peek,
a full view, and then he asked the person to
touch whatever it was that.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
He wanted to see.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
I started talking to him through the camera. They got
one of them ring phones. I guess she talked out.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
On the deck. Hey, what you out there doing.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
He hung up without saying goodbye. He came in the
house and said he was talking to a guy about
a scratch on his car, and the guy wanted to
see if he could buffet out without having the sand
and repaint it. I don't believe that, but you must
admit this was a magnificent Oh god, it was all

(09:02):
what I love about. What his response was, it was
related to what he do, so he turned his phone
call into a business call. Now surely you said some stuff.
Mm hmm, that's not true.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
What you.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
Can't well, you can walk around your car with a cigar.
I do it all the time.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Everybody rubs the scratch on a car, but.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
You don't have to. That's not necessary.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
Everybody rubs the scratch on the car to see how
deep the grooves is and if it can be rough
buffed out. That's a true statement about a scratch on
the car, everybody. If you want me to do my business,
you got to show me the scratch.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Well, he could have just showed it to it.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
Man, come and give me a full view of it.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Now, touch it, rubbing crossed there with your fringers so
I can see if it's down into the paint.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
What a wonderful thing he said. Now Shelley thinks that.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
He's talking about a woman's body part, because that's what
the wife said. The wife said, I don't believe him,
But then here was the opening. Do I need more
proof before I accuse him of lying? You already are
showing what we need, which is reasonable doubt. If you

(10:34):
knew that you knew what you knew, you would have
approached him by now. But you're a little bit unsure
because of his quick king and turn it into a paint.
In the words of the late Johnny Cockley, if it
doesn't fit, you mustn't quick.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
And that you got it fits.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
It fits what an autobody man would say. Let me
see it. Pull back, give me a full.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
View of that scrac like that you were talking like that.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
Put your finger on it. Let me see if that
ain't too deep. Put your fingers on that scratch. Let
me see how deep it is. Are you see what
I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
That's not a business call.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
And you you with your busy body, Hey, why are
you doing out there?

Speaker 1 (11:34):
The wife?

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, Hey, what did you touch it out there? What
did you got your fingers on there. They got to
come in. Now you have messed up the Besit deal.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
Yeah right right, and yeah you scared me because I
heard a voice out of nowhere. See all this could
be true now surely being the person that.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
She is, evil just evil?

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Has I have tried to save a fan.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
If you tried to help him with a good lie
to get out of it.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
That was better than the ones you could do well.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
But it was the lie that was needed to cause
reasonable doubt. Because now she is now questioning does she
need more proof?

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Therefore you have to have more proof she doesn't. That's
all I can say. You need more proof? All right? Yes?
