Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all
don't know y'all at all at all.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Given them.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
A bu bussy.

Speaker 4 (00:24):
Listening to show. I don't joy.

Speaker 5 (00:45):
Yeah, Joy, you gotta turn out, Love, turn you gotta

(01:25):
turn well, you.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Have to turn the mouth.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Turn you probably got to turn the mouth, turn out,
turn the water the money up. Looking at me, come
come out?

Speaker 6 (01:59):
You think I sure will? Good morning everybody.

Speaker 7 (02:05):
You are listening to the voice, Come on dig me now,
one and all is Steve Harvey got a radio show
particular me this morning. Steve Harvey got a radio show
fear with nothing but joy and hope about it too.
You know, it's a great thing to be able to
wake up in the morning with peace in your heart

(02:26):
and joy. Peace and joy is immeasurable. It has a
value attached to it, and I have no idea what
it is. It's invaluable. It is worth so much more
than any amount of money you can make. Peace and joy.
I have not always had that. I've not always been

(02:47):
a peaceful person or a person who lived his life
and enjoy spirit. It took an arrival at this moment.
Some people arrived sooner than others. I wish I had
arrived at this point sooner, but I think it was
necessary for me to learn a few things too. That's

(03:09):
the amazing thing I've learned about life is that instead
of reflecting on your past incidences and calling them failures,
instead of focusing on the negative and calling them bad times,
I look at them now as experiences. I had to

(03:30):
have those experiences that were negative, that were good, positive, wrong, evil.
I had to have all those experiences to become to
shape who we are today. We all have to have them.
If you look back at all the negative experiences you've had,

(03:50):
all the things that you called failures, all the businesses
I started that went under, all of the jobs I
had that I was fired from, all the show that
were canceled, all of the times I thought I was
gonna get something happened in my way and turned out
I didn't get it at all. When you look at
all of it, all of it, hopefully along the way,

(04:13):
what you have done as a person is you've taken
those negatives and those failures and you've used them for
what they actually are. They are experiences, and they've now
created in you an experienced person, and you know that
is worth something that's then it becomes a positive. But

(04:36):
what too many people do is they let the negative
things that have happened in their life. They allow the
failures that have happened in them lives never to manifest
themselves as experiences. And you sit up there and you
dwell on it, and you dwell on it until you
have this woe is me attitude. Stop looking at it
like that, y'all. You go through things in order to

(04:59):
be the person that you are today. I'll tell you
who you sometimes have to sit down and talk to.
Sometimes you ought to sit down to an inmate that
really gets it. An inmate that says, man, I've actually
heard inmates say it to me and write to me,
and they've said things like, man, come into prison, save
my life. Now, those of you have never got how

(05:21):
can he say a thing like that? But some men know, man,
I was so far out there that if I'd have
stayed out there, I wouldn't even be here today. This
actually allowed me to stop, spend some time with myself
and learn some things about me. Now, does that happen
for everybody like that? And no, But here's a person
who has taking an experience that could be considered a

(05:42):
failure or negative and turn it into a positive and
using it to enrich their lives. You can do it
no matter what your set of circumstances is. I recommend
to everybody that you try changing your outlook in order
to change your outcome. Everything that happens to you that's
negative or you consider failure their experiences. You've got to

(06:02):
go through these things in order to have the knowledge
that you have today. So I wish that I had
come to this arrival that I'm in now, this place
of peace and joy, But then guess what, I will
not know what I know. I couldnot share some of
the things that I'm able to share if I had
not gone through some of them. And sometimes that's the

(06:22):
purpose of them. It's to teach you a lesson because
you know, God has a plan for you, He really
really does, and eventually he can use you no matter
how old you are, and he can use you no
matter how young you are. If you just say, okay,
I'm ready to hear your plan. I've tried mine, mine
ain't worked out. What's your plan for me?

Speaker 2 (06:42):
God?

Speaker 6 (06:43):
What do you want me to do?

Speaker 7 (06:44):
That's why I say every day, Steve already got radio show, y'all, cause, man,
I ain't see it coming.

Speaker 6 (06:50):
I didn't see that coming. I ain't see this book coming.
I ain't.

Speaker 7 (06:53):
I ain't seen half of the amazing things that are
happened to me. I didn't plan them. I was sitting there, man,
and asking God for some direction. And then I got
smart enough to stay watchful, be a hard worker now
because faithful, our works is dead, and it came. And
I'll remind you of this. God has given all of
you a gift. Every last one of you listening has

(07:16):
a gift. God has never created a soul that he
did not provide a gift to. God gives everyone a gift,
and a gift is not just singing, rapping entertainment. The
richer gifts are much more than that. Teachers are gifted
people who really have the gift of sharing information. That's
a gift, you know, and in that you can become great.

Speaker 6 (07:40):
You know, a.

Speaker 7 (07:43):
Lot of people think that successful and greatness is the
same thing. Cornell West said it at my daughter's graduation.
He was a spokesperson and he said something so pointed.
He said, don't ever confuse success with greatness. The two
have nothing to do with each other. See people determine
success about money and fame and all this here, but greatness.

(08:05):
Greatness ain't got nothing to do with your money. It
ain't got nothing to do with your fame. It's how
you conduct your life. It's how meaningful and significant you
become in your community, at your church, on your job,
to the cub Scout unit that you run, to the
little girl's lives, that you change, that that little center
in the hood where you just one place of hope

(08:26):
to so many people and they come back. And I
used the example of lou Danzler who passed away in
La who had the Boys and Girls Challenges Club out
in La And he wasn't a rich man at all,
and if you walk by him, you wouldn't even know
who he was. But if you look at all the
people who have gone on to become politicians, who have
gone on to become CEOs, who have gone on to

(08:48):
become athletes, that have passed through this man's small building
in the hood in La, he was great. Trust me, man,
prayt changes things I said at all the time. But
when you see people become successful or great, that somebody
praying somewhere may not even be them.

Speaker 6 (09:05):
Maybe it's they. Mama.

Speaker 7 (09:06):
You know, I think of Tiger Woods and all the
greatness he's accomplished. You know, they always talk about his
father and all this. Here somebody somewhere praying for Tiger Woods.
I got cash money riding on that Tiger Woods. Mama
is a praying woman or something. My mother was. She
prayed me into this place because she used to call
me all the time praying for you, boy, and prayer

(09:27):
changes things. It really does. Try it today. It can
change you. It has changed millions of people. Open up
yourself to the greatness that's in you, because God is
giving you a gift matter fact that you ain't using it.
Who fought you think that is? I'm just telling you
you got one, and if you start praying about it,
it'll manifest itself and you can become one or two things,

(09:51):
successful or great or both. You can make the decision.

Speaker 1 (09:57):

Speaker 10 (29:17):
Harby Morning Show.

Speaker 6 (29:20):
Joining us this morning is Emmy Award winning journalist and
best selling author. He's also a longtime family member of
The Steve Hobby Morning Show. Recently, he sat with President
Biden for a great one on one interview. Before Biden
withdrew from this year's presidential race and endorsed Vice President
Kamala Harris as a Democratic candidate for presidents. Let's get
more insight on what's going on with this year's election.

(29:42):
Please welcome a family member, O Boyd one and only,
mister Ed Gordon.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Good morning, y'all, Good morning, Good morning.

Speaker 6 (29:53):
Is it a good morning?

Speaker 8 (29:54):
Ed?

Speaker 6 (29:55):
Is it a good one?

Speaker 2 (29:56):
You gotta be. We woke up, But we about to fight.

Speaker 6 (30:02):
All right, man, Let's get down to it, brother, I mean,
everything that's going on, everything that you've seen. What position
do you think we're really in right now as a
Democratic park?

Speaker 2 (30:13):
Well, it really is a fight coming up. There's no
question about it, you know. I interviewed the President Biden
last Tuesday. He received a warm reception. It was at
the NAACP convention. He received a warm reception there. He
had received a warm reception in Detroit prior to that.

(30:34):
Here's the interesting part. I think on Tuesday he fully
believed that he was going to stay in this race
and was going to fight this out. So between Tuesday
of last week and yesterday, that's when the decisions were made.
On Friday, there was a lot of buzz I was
in Washington. A lot of buzz about him stepping away,

(30:57):
but again as a Friday, I think he believe it.
But when he got COVID, it allowed him to really
sit with himself. He wasn't out there. These people started
talking to him, and I think they convinced him that
there was no way he was going to be able
to win. Now, let's take it to where we sit today.
It's not a foregone conclusion that Kamala Harris is going

(31:19):
to be the nominee. Right, she still has to get
the delegates. It's not a plug and play. There's a
lot that has to happen between now and I think
it's one hundred and nine days we're at or somewhere
in there. So look, y'all, if we are going to
move this nation forward and make sure that we do

(31:42):
not see another four years of Donald Trump, we're going
to have to see historic mobilization of the black vote.
I think the black vote is going to determine this election.
Black women have already, as of yesterday, started mobilizing sorority.
You have already started to raise millions of dollars as

(32:04):
of yesterday. Within twenty four hours, forty to fifty million
dollars already put on the table. So it's going to
be an extraordinary efforts, y'all. It's a big fight. It's
not going to be easy. It's not a four done conclusion.
But I'm going to assume that she is going to
be the nominated and ed.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
That's one of the reasons, you know, we were at
least I was. I was very sad when the President
made that announcement that he was dropping out of the race.
But what was you know, after you think about it,
what was great about it? He, unlike the other party,
put party, put people over party, and he said he

(32:45):
did what was best for the country and for the party,
for the Democratic Party, and which means his thought process
was we got to beat Donald Trump no matter what.
And if I can't beat him, I'm getting out of
the race. And I loved you know, when you look
at it from that perspective, it makes it all make sense.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
And it's a hard day for him yesterday. He worked
his entire life to become the president of the United States.
For him to walk away must be heart wrenching for him.
And I'm gonna tell you what else. I know that
he's going to sit back and wonder why some of

(33:27):
these people turn tail and jump ship as quickly as
they did, And many of them were concerned about their
own livelihood. They thought, if in fact he loses, he's
going to drag the race down and the down ballot,
as we call it down. I'm gonna tell you guys,
historically he will be looked back, looked upon. I should say,

(33:48):
as you suggested there, Shirley, that he did something for
the country and put the personal thing aside. But that's
down the line right now. Again, we have a fight
because if Donald Trump went and I normally don't say this.
You know, politics is politics, and you may not like
the person in the office, and you've got to struggle

(34:08):
through four years of policy you may not agree with, right,
but this thing is completely different. I know people have
heard about Project twenty twenty five. It's been talked about
a lot. I would encourage you to make sure that
you just don't say, oh yeah, project twenty twenty five, Yeah, yeah,
that's bad. Find out what it's really about. It's a
nine hundred page document. Nobody's going to read the nine

(34:30):
hundred pages. I'm not asking you to do that. Find
some articles see what's in there. Look, if they could
put y'all back and change, we'd all be locked up.
I'm telling you it's real, it's the truth. They've already
told you what they're.

Speaker 8 (34:45):
Going to do.

Speaker 6 (34:47):
What what what? What are some of the things that
stand out to you ed in this project twenty twenty
five that we need to really add here to.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
Well, let's let's let's look at an easy one. Right,
you've been hearing about this whole dismantling of THEE and I,
this sense of not being able to teach black history
in schools. Right, we all have heard about that. That's easy.
They want to eliminate the Department of Education as a
for instance. If you eliminate the Department of Education, there's

(35:17):
nobody to really oversee what's taught in schools in the
way that has been done for decades now, which means
that the states will be free to run rampant and
really start to teach anything that they want. They've already
told you that's not what we want to hear. They

(35:39):
are putting things in place. They're eliminating D and I programs.
They've started with States Rights down in Texas as a
for instance, the dismantling of D and I and higher
education is extraordinary.

Speaker 10 (35:52):
Hey, Ed, can we.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
Just stop right here and take a break and come back. Absolutely,
we'll do that. We'll be back with more of Ed
Gordon on this Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

Speaker 10 (36:02):
You're listening Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 6 (36:05):
Welcome back. We are still here with our special guest,
mister Ed Gordon, and we are right in the middle
of talking about changing of the guards with now Ms
Kamala is the front runner for the presidency and when
we left, you were talking about Project twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
And you know, just very quickly, it's just an effort
to turn back the clock to eliminate all of the
games that we've seen as a people. You know, I
sometimes think we get too in the weeds with politics
and people kind of turned off. So just think about
it as an opportunity for Trump and his cronies to

(36:43):
turn back many of the games that we've seen and
it will really cripple African Americans, brown folk women, et cetera.
It's real. And for people who say it won't matter,
it doesn't matter who I vote for, you know that's
saying that around and find out.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
You got to find out, right.

Speaker 6 (37:11):
You know, the big question on the table now is,
of course we want we want Kamala to be to
be definitely the person that's chosen. Who would you suggest
what strengthen her by being her vice president too?

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Yeah, that's sixty four thousand dollars question, ain't it. You
know you got to figure that it's got to be
geographic because we're really down to about six or seven states.
It's going to put this over the top. Again. Not
could give a political lesson, but it's really about the
electoral college, which I wish they would get rid of. Right,
So some states are already taken care of. Democrats are

(37:44):
going to win, you know, California without a doubt, New
York without a doubt. So those are already in the bank.
It's Michigan, it's Pennsylvania, It's Georgia's Arizona. There are a
number of states, about six or seven of them, so
you think that they're going to be one of the
largest states. Shapiro out of Pennsylvania is being talked about exactly.

(38:05):
Gretchen Whitmer out of my state of Michigan. I do
not think this country is ready for two women. Quite
frankly sadly to say, so you wonder about her. A
lot of African Americans are talking about Wes Moore out
of Maryland. I just don't think he's well enough, well
enough known yet, but look for him in twenty twenty eight,

(38:26):
unless Kamala Harris decides to go two terms. Temmy, it's
a hard one because it's also something that's going to
be played. Politics is going to be one of those
things in the back room like they used to do,
starting to decide who's going to be a part of
that ticket that's going to come into play in a
way that we have not seen in the last three

(38:46):
or four elections. So I wish I had a crystal
ball and could give you an exact name that I
really know. But I think geographically is going to be
the biggest question, and I don't think it's going to
be somebody who's really liberal like Gavin Newsom out of
californ on you. So it's going to be an interesting,
you know, four months or whatever we got left. But again,
I encourage African Americans, raise your voice, tell people, call

(39:10):
your congress people, let them know what you want to hear,
who you want to see, what you want to do
and really get involved in a way that you haven't.
It's gonna be about vote voter turnout this go round period.

Speaker 6 (39:20):
So let's do let's do this. We're gonna put a
pen in it. We're gonna come back and pick up
right where we left off. Man, we'll be back right.

Speaker 10 (39:25):
After you're listening morning showing.

Speaker 6 (39:29):
We are back. We'll still hear with our special guests.
I want and only Ed Gordon, Emmy Award winning best
inder author, our friend, and he has giving us plenty
of insight on everything. Everything everybody's talking about right now.
The by Biden stepping down, Kamala has actually been endorsed
by President President Biden. And and here we are. So

(39:51):
my last question was you know who would be the
who would be the vice president that she would choose
if she gets the if she gets the nod, And
my my phone is blowing up, the TV blowing up
all over the country. This is all we're hearing. I
guess the biggest thing, Man, do we have enough time
to do it?

Speaker 8 (40:05):
Ed?

Speaker 6 (40:05):
Can we really pull it off?

Speaker 2 (40:07):
I don't know. I certainly hope. So it's going to
be a stretch. If we're being honest, but at the
end of the day, and I was saying this before
we hit the brake, it's gonna be about voter turnout.
You know, Democrats are going to have to do what
they do. They don't always do it well dot I
crossed t's They're going to have to do this. I
was with Stacey Abrams the other day and she was
saying that, you know, you got to keep a watch

(40:28):
because you want to make sure that no states are
going to pull some you know, something crazy and say, well,
she didn't have enough time to put her name on
the ballot. There are all kinds of things that could happen.
But what we have to understand is, particularly in those
states Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada, what we call these
purple states, it's going to be about voter turnout. Democrats

(40:51):
are going to have to get get out there. You know,
we need to hold old fish fries and get the
vands and buses ready and get.

Speaker 8 (40:58):
People to the polls.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
And you know, we have to vote like we never have.
And it's became cliche. You know, this election is the
most important in your lifetime. We've been saying that for
a while some people buying, some people don't this time,
no joke. It's really real. It's real real, And you
know I don't normally like to ring alarm bells. I'm
pretty calm and cool down the line. The house is

(41:23):
on fire, y'all.

Speaker 6 (41:24):
Yeah, So there's a group that I'm that I'm really
hoping we can we can actually get them out. How
do we get our young adults, the college kids. How
do we get these kids for this to be important
to them, to get them to the polls, to come
out and vote, because they got numbers that we need.

Speaker 2 (41:43):
To sit and talk to them and tell them why
we complain about them too often. All them young kids,
they don't do blah blah blah blah blah. Oh them millennials,
you know, y'all, like we wasn't like that when we
were younger.

Speaker 6 (41:55):
We were we were just like we were probably worse.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
That's worse because we didn't have social media.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
They didn't come with some different DNA. They're young period.
You know, social media has made it harder on them.
They face some problems. You know we didn't, but every
new generation faces new problems. It's really educating them. You know,
there are a lot of them that knew nothing about
the civil rights movement, knew nothing about the trials and

(42:23):
tribulations of black people. They just thought it was cool
from get go. And I understand that because they weren't
born back then and they weren't taught the struggles that
we've had. So it's really about sitting down with them
and letting them know why it's important to vote. And
listen very quickly, I'm sorry, but I understand why they

(42:44):
are disillusioned by politics. You know, politicians and I'm including
Democrats in this, haven't always done what they were supposed
to do. And look, y'all, Michelle, Obama ain't gonna be
the vice president. So let's le let's stay in the
real world, right and get this in the real world

(43:06):
and get this done. So let's talk to your young
people and get them out, definitely.

Speaker 6 (43:11):
And I was about to say a lot of these
young kids, like my son when he was born, Barack
Obama with president you know what I mean, You don't
know nothing else?

Speaker 2 (43:20):
Yeah, and listen, you know what else? They've never known
if they're thirty and under, and particularly if they're twenty
five and under, they've only known the dysfunctional world. Think
about all they've lived through pandemic wars Trump, so to
have a dysfunctional president once again is part of the
course for them. We haven't been teaching them. Some of

(43:41):
this ain't ain't right, y'all. You know life, life shouldn't
be this way.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
That's right, right, that's right.

Speaker 6 (43:49):
Well, Hey, we want to say thank you man for
timing in this morning. We appreciate you. Brother, always a
family member, always welcome, and we always always want to
hear your insight on what's going on. Man, So we
greatly appreciate you stopping here.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
I love y'all. Man, I appreciate it. Let's get out,
that's right.

Speaker 6 (44:05):
Get the voting, early vote too.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
You could do that in many states early voting.

Speaker 6 (44:10):
That's true, right, bus is fish fries, barbecues, whatever we
got to do.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
All right, ed, we thank you. We'll have more of
the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming up right after this.

Speaker 8 (46:12):
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, yeah, can you hear me? I'm

who're you trying to reach?

Speaker 8 (46:27):
I'm trying to reach Angela? This Angela? Oh yeah, this
see Hi Angela. This is Chip Chip. I'm the new
camp director for the cheerleading camp for the summer.

Speaker 13 (46:36):
Oh hi, Chip, what kind of do for you?

Speaker 8 (46:38):
Just want to give you a courtesy call your daughter?
You've got her signed up for four weeks with the camp,
right yeah, yeah, this is you guys. Third year being
a part of the.

Speaker 2 (46:48):
Camp, yep.

Speaker 13 (46:49):
And she's really excited. She loves coming to the camp
and we think it's a great things to be involved in.

Speaker 2 (46:54):
What's up? Okay?

Speaker 8 (46:55):
You guys just finished the whole cheerleading season too, am I? Right?
The competition seasons coming off of it, right, right, Okay, Well,
we're getting ready for the summer and everybody's excited about
coming out and being a part of what's going on.
So here's what I wanted to give you a little bit.
Like I said, I'm the new camp director. I was
just starting at this job. I got a few notes

(47:15):
that were given to me about so I wanted to
give you a call and see if I could talk
to you about it.

Speaker 13 (47:22):
A few notes giving you about.

Speaker 8 (47:24):
Yeah, just a couple of notes. I don't think it's
anything that we can make sure is okay, what kind
of notes. Well, it's been brought to my attention that
some of the parents whose daughters are out there as well,
there's going to be there this summer a little concerned
about her being on top of the pyramid, that she's
is a little bit heavy.

Speaker 6 (47:43):
Should she.

Speaker 2 (47:46):
Wait?

Speaker 12 (47:46):
Wait?

Speaker 13 (47:46):
Wait, will wait?

Speaker 9 (47:47):
Hold hold home?

Speaker 13 (47:48):
You calling me about some other parents and saying about
how big my child is or how much my child ways.

Speaker 8 (47:57):
If that was what I wanted to let you know,
we're gonna put together a face.

Speaker 13 (48:05):
No, you ain't gonna put no, bab I don't already
pay my money. And what you say your name is
chimp and how long have you been in director? Because
I was just up there two weeks ago and they
told me that she was gonna be the same position
that she was last year because that is what worked,
that's the formation that worked. So I don't even know
what well.

Speaker 8 (48:23):
Supposedly that some of the girls are complaining that she's
too heavy to hold up, so that seems to be
the problem in there. They're not getting a strong enough
to your men.

Speaker 13 (48:31):
And I'm now, wait a minute, wait a minute. I know, well,
she ain't the biggest one.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
I felt.

Speaker 8 (48:37):
Have you been?

Speaker 9 (48:37):
I fail?

Speaker 13 (48:38):
My child is not the biggest child I felt when
it because obviously you have not seen these cheerleaders. It's
some baby so much I felt.

Speaker 8 (48:45):
Okay, hang on, say Angela, I want you to calm
down a bit.

Speaker 13 (48:48):
I ain't nobody gonna calm down because I don't already
paid my money, and this that I'll be talking about
what parents, what parentson said?

Speaker 2 (48:55):
Something is?

Speaker 13 (48:56):
It is?

Speaker 8 (48:56):
It carries man, I'm not I'm not gonna state who
it is, but let's several.

one right here, right now, and you never know it

Speaker 6 (54:07):
You never know. You never know. Buckle love and hold
on tight. We got it for you here. It is
Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 1 (54:13):
All right, thank you, nephew. Subject, if he's going, I'm
going to, Dear Stephen Shirley. I've been married for three
years and my husband had two sons when we got married.
I'm cordial with the mom of his nine year old son.
It's the mother of the two year old that I
don't vibe with. Here's why my husband and I split
up a month before our planned wedding date because we

(54:34):
were arguing over wedding plans and money. He started sleeping
on the couch and we ignored each other for weeks,
so we postponed the wedding and he moved in with
his cousin. During that time, he met a girl and
was having sex with her without protection. She got pregnant quickly,
and now he has a son with a woman he
barely knows because I know her. I know her because

(54:58):
she used to do my bra and she knew I
was engaged to this man. After all the drama over
her and the baby, my husband and I work things
out and we eloped. Things were pretty good between us
until last weekend when we announced. When he announced that
he's taking his sons to Disney World next month, I
assumed it was a family vacation, but he said his

(55:21):
two year old son's mom had planned the trip and
invited his nine year old to go. This man knows
I'm not with the BS, so I said, if he's going,
I'm going to. I am not sure how he thought
a trip without me would be okay. He said it's
best if I don't go because I would be mean
to his child's mom. The entire time, I just knew

(55:42):
he had to be joking, but he's serious. Since I
can't go on the trip, I told him that I'll
be gone from his life when he returns from Florida.
He said, I'm being unreasonable and not considering his son.
Is he considering his son or his son's mama? You
know he's thinking about his son's mama. This whole letter
right here is crazy, and how could anyone in their

(56:05):
right mind think this is okay, especially your husband. This
is not right. This is not nice, This is not cool.
What she's doing inviting the nine year old son to
Disney World. This is all a trap. Okay, she knows
exactly what she's doing. He had a baby on you
while you guys were fighting. You were just fighting over
money in the wedding date and all that. You weren't

(56:27):
even separated or divorced or anything. Wow, and now he's
going on a trip with the baby's mama without you.
There's definitely more to this story because he's already accused
you of being mean to the baby mama. He didn't
question the fact that she knows he has a wife,
and she's trying to drag him down there anyway for

(56:48):
what's going to be a family vacation with her. This
is wrong. There's no way you should stay at home.
You got to go on this trip or no one's
going period, that's it. Or do like you said and
not be there when he comes back. You're not being unreasonable.
You are his family, now her. You should definitely go
because if you don't go, trust and believe they will

(57:10):
be working on baby number two. Okay, Tommy, all right,
I'm convinced what.

Speaker 6 (57:20):
Everybody got something that you don't have. You need a baby.
You need a baby, because see that's why you can't go,
because you ain't got no baby. You got to get
you a baby. Okay, we got to get you a
baby in order for you to get the Disney. You
need a baby, all right. I don't know if you
need If you can borrow a baby, you know, rental baby,

(57:44):
then they might have some called look up Google rental baby.
You might be a rental baby uber a baby. You
need a baby, baby for a day. Babies are us.
We got to get you a baby. That's the only
way we gonna get you into this Disney Park. We
got to get you. Do now what I do want
you to do because I'm I'm very familiar with this.
You want to stay at the Animal Kingdom. Okay, I
want you to know that that's where you want to stay.

(58:04):
You want to stand Animal m king You want to
make sure you ride Soaring. You want to make sure
you ride Avatar. You want to make sure you ride
all the roller coasts. And you want to get you
a guide. Okay, now we're talking rich. Now you want
to get you a guide. So when you get you
a guy, you can move around all over the place
and do whatever you want to do. And you're gonna
ride a rod rize real real quick. You ain't gonna
stand in line no where when you get you a
gas pas, yes, fast, pan. But we can't do none

(58:27):
of that till we get you a baby. We got
to get a baby. Okay, you ain't got time to
get pregnant right now and get that at Disney. That's
not gonna work for you. You got to get a
baby now, so you need to borrow a baby. Get
you a baby and get on this. Get you get
your own flight. Get on down there to Disney, and
guess what. Now that you got your baby, now you
can move around and see exactly what's going on. You

(58:49):
can see who he's staying with, where they staying at,
who's staying in the room with them. You can pass by.
You already cool with the nine year old mama. You
cool with her, so you lean on her. Lean on her.
That's gonna be your ride of that's your pot done
right there. Okay, but hold on to what hold on
to your baby. Keep a baby with you because that's
gonna keep you in full Because let make sure that
baby is old enough to play with either at nine

(59:11):
ye old or at two year old. You need a
baby right in there that's gonna be able to kick
it with the other ones. All right, don't brain no baby.
At fifteen sixteen you out of you in our dated yourself.
Stay in the middle. Or at two and that nine
you want somebody that's gonna hold the two and be
able to play with the nine you need like a
five or seven yold. Yeah, you need to borrow a
five or seven ye old baby. There's plenty of people

(59:32):
who who can't get to Disney, who can't afford Disney.
They would definitely let you take their baby to Disney. Okay,
a five to a seven year old, get you one
of them. Are you trying to do is borrow baby
for the weekend. That's all you're trying to do. So
you can get down there and keep eye on your
man personally. If my uncle was here, he'll be saying,
why the hell is you chasing this damn man? Hell
is she doing that? Fun? He already messed up before

(59:55):
the wed and you still with him? What is she
doing going to Disney? This is when you' no need
to be leaving. That's what the hell you need to
be doing. You need to be finding a wait for
yourself to hel with him and them women and them babies.
That's what you need to do. Go find yourself. When
he come back, you need to be gone. That's what
you need to be doing.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Hello, all right, now, you sound just like him.

Speaker 6 (01:00:20):
You can ask you can ask the Lord about me.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
Yes, yes, all of that. I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
Hello, all right, we'll have part two of our responses
to this strawberry letter. Carlo is gonna join us when
we come back at twenty three minutes after the hour.
Today's the Strawberry letter subject is if He's Going, I'm
going To. We'll get back into it right after this.

Speaker 10 (01:00:40):
You're listening Hard Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (01:00:43):
All right, we're going to recap today's strawberry letter. This
is it's called if He's Going, I'm Going To. A
woman wrote in she's been married for three years. Her
husband had two sons before they got married. She's cordial
with one of the sons, the nine year old, but
the mother of this two year old baby, she does
not with her at all, and she says she tells

(01:01:03):
us why she breaks it down. She said she and
her husband split up about a month before their planned
wedding date because they were arguing over the plans and
the money. They couldn't get it together, so they were
just mad, walking around, not speaking to each other. He
started sleeping on the couch. They ignored each other for weeks.
They postponed the wedding. He moved out of the house
and moved in with his cousin. So while he was

(01:01:24):
over there with his cousin, he met a woman and
he started having sex with her without protection. What stupid,
This is really dumb. Then the woman got pregnant very quickly,
she adds, and now, yeah, it only takes one time.
Now he's got a son with this woman. And he

(01:01:45):
barely even knows this woman. So the now wife knows
this woman because this woman that he had the baby
with used to do her braids and the hairstyle. Is
the braider knew who she was, She knew that the
man was engaged, but she slept with him and got
pregnant on him any way, all right, all right, So

(01:02:07):
then they finally worked through it. They work through all
the drama and the baby and the husband. She and
the husband worked it out and they eloped. So they
are married now, have been for three years. And she
said things were pretty good between them until last weekend
when the mother, the baby, mama of the two year
old that she does not get along with. I hope
you're following me, decided to invite the nine year old

(01:02:30):
son and the daddy to Disney World.

Speaker 6 (01:02:34):
What you know, the biggest question though, what what who
doing her hair?

Speaker 2 (01:02:40):
Now?

Speaker 8 (01:02:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:02:44):
I mean right there, that's a point.

Speaker 1 (01:02:49):
Definitely not her anymore. But she probably.

Speaker 6 (01:02:55):
All that scratching you doing that. It's a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:02:59):
Baby here on her edge because she has none. Right,
that's a good question, Tommy, you're right, So so the
wife says. The wife says. The husband knows he's not
with the BS. He doesn't want the wife to go
to Disney World with them, because he says, the wife
will be treating the baby mama bad all the time,

(01:03:20):
she'll be mad at her all the time. Well, of course,
of course he planned a family trip with your this
isn't even your family. So anyway, she wants to know.
She told the husband, if he goes and she doesn't go,
she will be out of his life when he gets
back from Disney World. When he gets back from this trip.
He said that she's being unreasonable and not considering his son,

(01:03:43):
and she wants to know is he considering his son
or his son's mama? All right, here we go. All right, Carl,
we want you to chime in on this one too,
because I know you have some opinions. So she is
he considering the son or the son's mama? And is
she being unreasonable? Like the husband said, No, she's not
being unreasonable. There's history with this girl.

Speaker 9 (01:04:05):
You had a baby with this girl when they had
issues in their relationship, the husband and wife.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
So he is putting this trip before his wife.

Speaker 9 (01:04:16):
So he needs to recognize that you don't need this
woman to take your kids to Disney World. You can
take your sons, both of your sons. You can take
them to Disney World on your own, or if you
can't budget, do another trip, do something else. First of all,
the boys two years old, he's gonna remember half of it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:34):
Anyway, the youngest he was too, she doesn't remember.

Speaker 6 (01:04:38):
Yeah, you wasted your money, right, yes, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
I mean we took Tasha. Tasha took her first steps
at Disney Side.

Speaker 9 (01:04:46):
Note the place really is magical, is really running down
all but that was we were all there, we were
working for.

Speaker 1 (01:04:57):
Yeah. But anyway, back to what I'm saying, No, he's foul.

Speaker 9 (01:05:01):
You're not being unreasonable, he's being disrespectful, and he needs
to tell the baby mama, you know what you're doing.

Speaker 8 (01:05:07):
You know what this is.

Speaker 1 (01:05:08):
This is my wife.

Speaker 9 (01:05:09):
I can't go on a trip with you and my son,
and you're taking my other son. So now she is
dangling this trip, especially for the kids. He don't want
to hurt his kids feelings and upset them, especially the
nine year old. The nine year old is on board, yes,
of course with this trip to Disney.

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:05:30):
No, she needs to stand firm, or as a kid say,
stand on business the wife and put her foot down
and let her husband know this is unacceptable and it's
no way. This girl the braid. That's the baby mama.

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
She knows that she was married. She knows that she
was married.

Speaker 9 (01:05:50):
She wouldn't want her husband's baby mama to go on
the trip with her kids and her husband and she
not be included.

Speaker 1 (01:05:59):
She needs real check and she can check the baby mama.

Speaker 6 (01:06:02):
Yeah she can't, right, Why was just going to get
out of this? You done locked up? You the one
that ain't got a baby. Why don't we just walk
away from this? Lea this man alone. Find you a
new man, and you a new man and a new hairstylist.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
Lead I like it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:19):
Tell me like a new man and a.

Speaker 6 (01:06:21):
New hairstyle, and you're gonna need a new hairstylist first
in order to get a new man. But you need
you a new hairstylist and a new man. Gone leaders man.

Speaker 1 (01:06:30):
Anyway, he's still I know we're joking about that.

Speaker 9 (01:06:33):
Go find you a new man. But at the end
of the day, Tommy, your point is she needs to
find a new man. If your husband does not have you,
honor his wife as a priority.

Speaker 1 (01:06:42):
Right, all right, thanks guys, respect period. Leave your comments

It's called nineteen ninety two. Nineteen ninety two is an
action movie. It's centered around a father that gets caught
up in a heist while he's trying to save his
son from the streets during the nineteen ninety two LA

(01:07:51):
uprising after the Rodney King verdict.

Speaker 10 (01:07:53):
Who I was there then?

Speaker 1 (01:07:55):
Snoop said that the year of nineteen ninety two was
a life changing time for him musically, while everything was
falling apart in LA. Nineteen ninety two is about an
LA moment. It will be released in late August in
limited theaters nationwide. So congratulations, I can't wait to see that.

Speaker 10 (01:08:12):
That should be good.

Speaker 6 (01:08:13):
Yeah, okay, okay, well let me throw one in here.
I want to do a congratulations to my boy. Y'all
know my boy, Avery Williams, Professor Avery Williams out of
More House now. Yes, he had a film that debuted
on Lifetime this past Saturday, Abducted at HBCU.

Speaker 3 (01:08:31):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (01:08:31):
Good, Yeah, that's my boy. Ride to die man, and
I want to give big ups to him. This is
the this is the beginning of many so I think
he's already got another job to write another Lifetime film.
So Avery's on his way. Man, I'm grateful, I'm happy
for him, and he's.

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
Oh good, good writer.

Speaker 10 (01:08:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:08:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:08:48):
So that's a question then, Tommy, So what kind of
advice Because you're an actor, you're on television.

Speaker 1 (01:08:53):
Avery's got a movie on Lifetime. This is huge, this
is big. What kind of advice would you give.

Speaker 9 (01:08:59):
To anybody us listening that want to get in the
movie business industry or television and they just don't.

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
Know which way to go? What kind of direction should
they take?

Speaker 6 (01:09:09):
That's a good question. First of all, you know, if
you're on the acting side, the biggest thing, go get
some training. Go get as much training as possible. And
I went to college for this, So go get your training,
hone your craft, know what you're doing, and and really
dig deep into really learning every aspect about it and
what you'll be surprised about. They are actors who are

(01:09:30):
the home run hitters that still go to classes, still
go on topic. You can go and catch you can
go and catch Pacino in a class in a class,
still still honing. It's still sharpening and sharpening and sharpenings.
So you can what they say if you stay ready,
there you go.

Speaker 15 (01:09:49):
You want to know what location, class, what time do
they meet? That's and is it didn't zail bleak?

Speaker 12 (01:10:02):
Is he?

Speaker 8 (01:10:03):
Is it that?

Speaker 6 (01:10:04):
Because y'all all outside, all right?

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
Coming up at the top of the hour, forty two
year old single man wants to know if he should
date older women. We'll talk about it right after this.

Speaker 10 (01:10:19):
You're listening hard morning show.

Speaker 1 (01:10:24):
All right, guys. This is from Shahied in Tallahassee. Shahid said,
if I'm a gentleman and I tell a female I
don't want to have sex with her before I get
to really know her, why am I called lame or suspect?
This newer generation of females have too much sexual energy.
The last girl that I dated was too wild and
the sex was raunchy, so it was a turn off.

(01:10:46):
She used to kiss me on the forehead and get
her own towel afterwards. I'm forty two. I need to
find an older woman.

Speaker 8 (01:10:56):
Now.

Speaker 6 (01:10:56):
Oh my god, Hey man, nothing wrong with you being
classy about what you want and how you want to
do it. Don't let nobody rush you into this man.
And yeah, the raunching is a big turn off brother,
So I understand. Now, do you want an older woman,
They might be a little bit more classy. I don't know,
but I think you can. All you got to do
is keep looking, don't don't don't, don't give up. There's
somebody your age that you will find. It's gonna have

Well, we send our deepest, deepest condolences to the family
of Representative Sheila Jackson Lee. Representative Lee passed away on
Friday from pancreatic cancer. Representative Lee served as a municipal
judge and a councilwoman in Houston before she was elected
back in nineteen ninety four to serve Texas' eighteenth Congressional district,

(01:15:25):
where she served as an outspoken advocate for blacks for
over three decades. Sheila Jackson Lee's family issued this statement
on Friday, saying, today, with incredible grief for our loss,
yet deep gratitude for the life she shared with us,
we announced the passing of United States Representative Sheila Jackson
Lee of the eighteenth Congressional District of Texas. Sheila Jackson

(01:15:49):
Lee was seventy four. Texas Governor Greg Abbott could call
a special election to fill Representative Jackson lee seat for
the remainder of the term, which will end in January
of next year. And definitely, our deepest condolence is going out.

We'll close out the show right after this. You're listening
Hardy Morning Show. All right, guys, here we are our
last break.

Speaker 3 (01:20:13):
Of the day.

Speaker 1 (01:20:14):
Jay, it is the last break of the day.

Speaker 6 (01:20:17):
All right, Steve. You know I often talk about your
mental attitude.

Speaker 7 (01:20:24):
I'm gonna share something with you because it's a way
that I was thinking of how I really thought, and
I was thinking about statistics and how statistics. People use
statistics to help them be okay to me with their failure.
People use the statistics to find a way to describe

(01:20:49):
their lack of movement or their not being successful or something.
Because you got to be careful with any stat that
says one out of you know, you ever hear a
stat one out of every five thousand, one out of
every one out of every six out of ten see
and people, if you're not careful, statistics can be very crippling.

(01:21:15):
Thirty percent of the people who do this will wind
up that way. And what negative people do. They automatically
put themselves into to the negative side of the equation
because if you're accustomed to thinking negative. You will always
take the negative side of a statistic. What they told

(01:21:38):
me years ago, one out of every two thousand comedians
will get on the Tonight Show. So that means one,
nine hundred and ninety nine comedians out of the two
thousand will never get on the Tonight's Show. So you
know what everybody around me was talking about. Man, we'll
never make it on the Tonight Show. You know what
I did when I first got in comedy the Tonight's

(01:22:01):
Show theme song before I went on, I harmed it.
I never got on it with Johnny Carson. But you
know what I got on the Tonight's Show when Jay
Leno was on Now, but I was already successful.

Speaker 6 (01:22:19):
That's the only way I got on it.

Speaker 7 (01:22:21):
But see, I never allowed that statistic to enter into
my system. It's amazing what statistics do. Be very careful
you all listening to statistics because they.

Speaker 6 (01:22:35):
Got nothing to do with you. They don't.

Speaker 7 (01:22:39):
Stats to me are for people looking for a reason
to explain why they're not going to do it, or
why they didn't make it, or why they're not successful.
I don't care nothing about no stats.

Speaker 6 (01:22:52):
See.

Speaker 7 (01:22:53):
The problem is what I chose to do. And let
me explain this to you. See if you can get
what I'm talking about. Let's look at these two words.
Let's start with probability. What's the probability of you becoming
rich one day? What's the probability of you being able
to have a child. What's the probability of you hitting

(01:23:16):
the lottery? What's the probability of you owning more than
one house? What's the probability of you being able to
travel like you want to in this world? What's the
probability of you seeing four other countries before you die?
You understand what I'm saying. Once you look at the probability,

(01:23:36):
you are in trouble because the operative word and probability
to me is probable. It probably probably won't happen. Well,
it's probable, but it ain't likely. That's the problem with it.
So I never operate on probability. I choose to operate

(01:23:59):
on another, the word possibility. I only look at the
possibility of it. And here's the code part. Y'all, if
you thought about it for real, listen to this right here.
Do you realize that it is impossible to think an

(01:24:23):
impossible thought?

Speaker 6 (01:24:26):
Oh? What did you say, I said, do you realize it.

Speaker 7 (01:24:32):
Is impossible to think an impossible thought? So if you
thought it, do you not understand that that's possible? Show
me one person, show me anybody, Show me anybody that
has thought an impossible thought.

Speaker 6 (01:24:47):
How can you do that? How how can you think
an impossible thought?

Speaker 7 (01:24:57):
The reason you can't think of an impossible thought because
the moment you think it, there lies the possibility.

Speaker 2 (01:25:07):
And now.

Speaker 7 (01:25:09):
It opens up your life, It opens up your realm
of thinking. It opens up you to starting to begin
in the process that anything is possible, anything is possible.
Do you know something that you could really be rich
one day if that's what you want it now, I'm

(01:25:31):
not saying that's a necessity and that's what makes you happy.
I'm just using that as an example. Do you know
you could actually have more than one home? Do you
know that you could actually drive more than one or
two cars? You can have four cars. Do you understand
that you actually can help change lives that you've been
thinking to change. Do you know that you actually can
be owned, become a business owner, that you actually can

(01:25:54):
open up that business.

Speaker 6 (01:25:56):
You can actually do it. You can actually do it,
but you.

Speaker 7 (01:26:02):
Gotta fix your mind because it's possible. Stop looking at
the probability of something and look at the possibility. And
if you tell somebody an idea all the time and
they start telling you why it won't work, stop talking
to them people. You'll need them people. I only talk
to people when I give them an idea. They go, yeah, man,

(01:26:24):
we can do that. I don't need you telling me
how it won't work. The opposition gonna present itself in
everything you attempt to do anyway. I don't want to
hear your mouth talk about why it won't work. I
only give myself around people when I give them an idea,
they say, yeah, man, let's go.

Speaker 6 (01:26:39):
Those are my closing remarks. I ain't no more to
have a Christian Day.
