Speaker 2 (02:13):
Today, folks.

Speaker 8 (02:14):
I just want to dive right in because I think
I got it here.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
It is.

Speaker 8 (02:19):
Did you know that there is a life for you
that's greater than you could have ever dreamed of? Did
you know that there's a life for you better than
the one you've ever felt before? And did you know
that there was a life for you much bigger than

(02:42):
the one you wanted? And lastly, did you know that
what I just said is true? Did you know that?
Did you know that the things I just said are
available to you? It's not just intended for those who

(03:04):
receive awards. It's for everybody. Yeah, you two, It's for
you who didn't get your high school diploma. It's for
you who are incarcerated. It's for you who have two strikes.

(03:30):
It's for you who've been sentenced to life. It's for
you who've gotten out and have a felony record and
can't seem to get it together.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
It's for you.

Speaker 8 (03:44):
Who have an illness. It's for you who the doctors
have given up on. It's for you. This life i'm
talking about is for you.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Did you know.

Speaker 8 (04:01):
That there's a life for you better than the one
you dreamed about, better than the one you've imagined, a
life better than the one you thought of, That there's
a life for you better than the one you've ever
felt before. There's a life for you better than the
one you saw for yourself. There's a better life for

(04:21):
you than the one you expected and even the one
you wanted. Did you know that this is true for you? See,
here's let me give you the secret to this thing.
Now you have to believe that it is for you. Now,
you gotta fight through the doubts. You gotta fight through

(04:44):
the wheel of satan, because the devil is busy man.
The devil wants you to think that it's hopeless. The
devil wants you to think that this is it. The
devil wants you to think that ain't no more to it.
The devil wants you to think that this applies to
other people. But you, yeah, you've been dealt with worse
hand of them all, which you ate. But that's what
the devil wants you to think. So you gotta fight through. Now,

(05:05):
You gotta fight through to get to what I just
said is available for you. But what else you got
to do? You ain't doing nothing else, might as well fight.
Why just wake up and just let it be? Why
would you wake up every day and just exist when
there's a chance for you to actually live. See the
reason I don't mind smiling so much now is because

(05:26):
I'm no longer existing. I'm living now.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
See. See, that's what you want to get to.

Speaker 8 (05:32):
You don't want to exist to wake up paycheck to paycheck,
date today, not knowing, not understanding, not have and can't
can't get this, can't get that, can't go here, can't
go there, Gotta wait, gota wait, gota wait, goda wait
till it seems like you never get nowhere. You can
get out of that rut of life feeling like when

(05:52):
you wake up in the morning that your life is whole.
Hume that you just in a rut.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
I drive the same way to work. I do the
same thing on my job.

Speaker 8 (06:00):
When I get off, I drive all the way back home.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
I sit there, I.

Speaker 8 (06:04):
Read the newspaper. I watered the lawn. I'm so sick
of my life. It ain't this, ain't what I wanted. Man,
and start wak up, start over, do the same thing.
Then the weekend gets in. You got to mold the lawn,
and then you try to fix something in the garage
and you feel like your life is in a rut.
I'm talking about if this feels like a rut to you,
and if it's what you've always wanted, I'm cool with that.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
But I'm talking to people.

Speaker 8 (06:27):
Who want it more, who would love their life to
be more, who would love their life too different to
be different. And I'm not criticizing you if I just
described your life. I'm just only talking to the ones
who would dad to believe that there's more to it
than this. I'm only talking to the ones who would

(06:48):
dad to accept the challenge, to fight through and see
what God got for you instead of listening to Satan
all the time. Devil is busy man. Please understand, he's
so busy, so busy, try to trick you, get you
into the groove. You know they doing all kinds of stuff. Now, man,
you know atheists and already got prayer taken out of schools.

(07:09):
Excuse me, look at our skills schools, not as a
push by the atheists to get the words in God
we trust, taking off our money. Here's a deal. If
you don't believe in God, and you don't want trust
in God, just going about your business. But what you
can't do is spill off all into what I'm talking about.
That's the problem I have with all of them. If
you're gonna do you, then't do you, but don't spill
off into what I got.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Now. See, if you don't believe what I'm saying, then
I ain't talking to you.

Speaker 8 (07:33):
Let's just be clear about the relationship with Steve Harvey
and his crew. I'm only talking to the people that
believe that are looking for something else, that want something more,
that wants something better, that's got to be out there
searching and hoping and trying to do more. That's all
I'm talking to now. If you don't believe what I'm saying,

(07:54):
is true. Didn't go ahead, try it your way, Go
see write me, email me, let me know how it's
going for you. I'm telling you of a way that's
tried and true. If you go to God, if you
go to your creator, your maker, if you go to
him and you go to him for real and tell him, hey,
you know what, I want you to go ahead and

(08:15):
take over from here.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
I'm done.

Speaker 8 (08:17):
I'd have done all I know how to do out
of tried everything I know how to try. I'm sick
of me right now. Hey, look here, you created me
what you want me to do, and you had the
cool thing about it. When I made that decision, y'all. See,
I was so afraid for years that I was going
to miss out on something if I did that. I
couldn't do this no more. But the stuff I needed
to stop doing. I really need to stop the things

(08:39):
I was afraid of not being able to do anymore,
with the very same things I really didn't need to
be doing no more in the first place. On the
real man, on the real all that temporary fun I
was having all them temporary outlets. I was using all
them temporary things trying to fulfill myself.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
I was doing.

Speaker 8 (08:57):
I was just doing a bunch of temporary mess man.
I said, hold up, man, I want something permanent. Man,
I want a permanent feeling in my heart that it's
gonna be all right. So he replaced all that fun
with joy. But it was only because I went and
I faced him. He didn't take me and stopped me
from being me.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
He just made a better version of me.

Speaker 8 (09:19):
See, God, don't take he because all the stuff he
sent you through, he needed you to go through all him.
He needed you to have him experience of what it
felt like to be locked up. He needed you to
have experience and know what it was to lose everything.
He needed you to have experience to make you tough.
You just gonna be a tough one. I'm a tough
soldier in his army, that's all.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
I just say.

Speaker 8 (09:40):
One of the weak ones. I protect the weak ones.
God didn't take a lot of stuff from me, except
the stuff I needed. But the stuff he made me
to be, he allowed me to keep it, and he
just made a better of me.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Do that, y'all, and you can have what you wanting.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Show ladies and jail. Let me have it, all of it.

Speaker 8 (10:08):
Your undivided attention, Today is a blessing. Today is another
gift from God. Have you thanked him for it yet?
Have you told him how much you just appreciate the
thing of waking up. Waking up is not a simple thing.
It's the biggest thing in your day, because imagine what

(10:29):
it would be like if you didn't guess what ain't
no day.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
It's a great way to look at it.

Speaker 8 (10:37):
Man, If the biggest thing in your life is waking up, course,
when you don't, you.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Ain't got no more life.

Speaker 7 (10:46):
Man, it is a.

Speaker 8 (10:48):
Blessing to be here. I know you may be grieving
the loss of someone, and Lord knows I know how
that is. But the upside to it is God kept you.
I knew a girl or a friend of mine whose
wife lost her mom and she was really struggling with him.
Was just questioning God and thinking about not going on.
And he said, hey, man, my wife is really struggling

(11:10):
with the loss of a mom. And I said, man,
do I know what you're talking about? And do I
know some people I work with that know what you're
talking about? I said, that's a rough He said, what
can I tell her? I said, you have to stay
in there, because eventually you were thinking, remember all the
good things that they did, and sometimes you'll even smile
about them. I said, but right now you're hurting and

(11:32):
you got to get through that part of it. Ask
God for strength. She said, she did, and he didn't.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Give it to her. I said, ain't she still here?
He gave it to her.

Speaker 8 (11:41):
She just didn't recognize what it was because she ain't
never seen it before.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
God is good.

Speaker 8 (11:51):
Somebody sent me a blind text and said, hey, Steve,
where your God at now?

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Just to respond to you, sir.

Speaker 8 (11:59):
I have a kind of eye dear who it was,
because they ain't kind of a hater in my life,
and they got hold of my number. But you know
what God is he right here, right here where he
always been.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
You know what he doing.

Speaker 8 (12:10):
He got us tucked up under his wings. You know what,
with all the slings and ourls that's coming, ain't none
of them getting through? We protected, we covered. It's hot,
it's uncomfortably hot, but we ain't on fire. Though.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Where is God?

Speaker 8 (12:25):
He right here pulling me through everything else, pulling me
through this just like he tear for everything else has
ever promised me? That's where God and God gonna when
I get through it? He gonna be on the other
side because he got something from me. That's where God
he's showing up.

Speaker 2 (12:40):

Speaker 8 (23:19):
All right?

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Kalicia and Ronoke would have tried something? Boy the cloth.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
Freeze, I don't know nobody we're meant.

Speaker 10 (23:37):
Yeah, we're moving on to Kalicia and Roanoke. Calicia says,
my husband had a suit made by one of his
friends that's trying to start his own label.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
The suit is terrible and it was overpriced.

Speaker 10 (23:49):
My husband is afraid to get his money back, and
can I call this man and collect the money, or
let it go like my man said.

Speaker 8 (23:56):
No, let it go like your man said, what you
what you in it? He know, the dude ain't finna
be in the suit business. He didn't cut his losses. Hey, man,
I paid the brother he did make the suit, so
give him his money. It's horrible.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
Let it count.

Speaker 8 (24:13):
I'm gonna tell you right now, man, I'm telling you
a guy that made me a bunch of suits one time,
and I don't know what he and and I don't
know what he had did, but they all came back horrible.
I asked for my money back. You know what he
said to me, Man, you just want me to take
that bigger loss, he said, I give you a discount. Dog,

(24:40):
I can't wear his clothes.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Give me free.

Speaker 8 (24:46):
I can't whem if you give them to me free.
It's just one suit. Chalk it up to the game.
Gone about your business, man, all right, and do that
get in front of your man on that.

Speaker 10 (24:58):
Moving on to Rashan in Toronto, who writes, I thought
my husband was cheating on me one night, so I
followed him. He went to a jewelry store, so I
felt like a dummy. That was a month ago and
my birthday has passed. He didn't give me the jewelry,
so who was he shopping for?

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Is he cheating?

Speaker 2 (25:17):
Say that again?

Speaker 8 (25:18):
Sure?

Speaker 10 (25:19):
Okay, So she thought her husband was cheating on her, right,
so she followed him one night he went to a
jewelry store. So she felt like a dummy. She said,
that was a month ago and my birthday has passed.
He didn't give her the jewelry, so so who is
he shopping for?

Speaker 1 (25:37):
And is he cheating?

Speaker 7 (25:38):
Now?

Speaker 2 (25:38):
Hold up? Hold up, hold up, hold up. He went
to the jewelry store.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
Yes, that night, she followed him.

Speaker 8 (25:44):
You felt like a dummy. Birthday passed. You ain't getting
no jewelry.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Nothing.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
He went to the jewelry store. Maybe he didn't find
nothing in there.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
That's her birthday. Did he give her something for a birthday?
She was expecting jewelry obviously.

Speaker 8 (25:59):
Yeah, but maybe he went to the jewelry store and
didn't find nothing for you in the jewelry store. Because
he went, don't mean he bought nothing. The majority of
jewelry stores I went in, I walked back out with nothing.
The majority of watch stores. And I love watching I
go in and I walk out without a watch. It
happens all the time. Now, unless you're saying the credit

(26:21):
card showed that he bought a tennis bracelet for for
four thousand dollars and then you ain't get it, then
you have something to do. That's called evidence. But if
you don't have that, all you said to us was
he went in the jewelry store, and I felt dumb.
But then my birthday coming, I didn't get none. He
went to the jewelry store, he ain't find nothing.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
Maybe it was true the whole big.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yeah, she was expecting you.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Saw a lot of stuff. But if he ain't had
the money for it.

Speaker 15 (26:54):
Yeah, in the old face.

Speaker 8 (26:55):
He went in that expecting one thing, and what he
had the budget he had in he didn't see nothing
he liked for that money.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
She was so cent all that day thinking she was
going to get the jewelry for her birthday.

Speaker 8 (27:10):
Well, you followed the man to the jewelry store. He
went in there, and then you birthday came to pass her.
You ain't getting no jewelry. Did you see him buy
anything that the credit card receiet say? If you don't
have that, lady, what you're talking about is he cheating?

Speaker 16 (27:24):
No, what did he give her for her birthday problems
in the evening in Paris. M M, that's what I
gave my mom every Christmas. She so, my little dumb
ass bought it every year. Then one day I was
looking up in her clothes. I saw all the damn
bottles of evening in Paris.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
I saw her every year she opened that gift and
hugged me. This little boy, proud of him. He just shopped.

Speaker 12 (27:55):
About it.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
About seven years of evening and.

Speaker 10 (28:02):
All right, I think we have time for one more.
Terry and Detroit says. I ran into an old friend.
I found out that she is married to a man
that I had an affair with. I knew he was married,
but I didn't know to whom. We're still cool. So
I called and told him I've known his wife for years.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
He hung up. What did I do wrong?

Speaker 2 (28:20):
What you call the man fault? You hadn't a family?

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Him?

Speaker 12 (28:24):
Uh huh?

Speaker 2 (28:25):
What y'all won't these people? He hung up. God, don't click,
I'll tell you right.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
Now more time.

Speaker 8 (28:42):
Hey, Julius, Hey, who is this this teacher? Hey, what's
what's going on? You know I've known your wife for you?

Speaker 2 (28:50):
Click?

Speaker 1 (28:53):
Thank you.

Speaker 10 (28:53):
Cello coming up next Kirk Franklin joins us to talk
about his brand new documentary, Father's Day, a Kirk Franklin story.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
Right after this, Man, you're listening Morning show?

Speaker 8 (29:09):
All right, everybody, welcome back. As promise, we got very
very special guests this morning. He's my little brother, period,
that's all. We're closer and close. We ain't friends, were brothers.
It wasn't for Kirk Franklin. And that's all I can say.
If it wasn't for Kirk Franklin about me, Oh this

(29:32):
would be different. Yeah, I'd be different. I be different,
you know. So anyway, he's here, Yeah, he's my homie.
I'm just telling you I wasn't Kirk Franklin. He's a
gospel legend. We went on tour over ten years ago,

(29:54):
and if you missed that show, you missed the best
of both worlds.

Speaker 2 (29:57):
On stage, that's what we call the best of both
world two. We was up there.

Speaker 9 (30:01):
Man.

Speaker 8 (30:02):
I bought the jokes and he bought the Jesus. Then
today he's joining us to talk about a brand new documentary. Y'all,
this is gonna be very interesting because you're not expecting this.
It's called Father's Day A Kirk Franklin story, and in
it he opens up about all the traumas of his childhood.
We gonna find out what nom We talk about music,

(30:22):
but this is a little bit different. We got a documentary,
Lady and General one and only my dog, Kirk Franklin.

Speaker 14 (30:28):
Well, k Hey, beautiful people, morning morning, beautiful people.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Then thank you.

Speaker 7 (30:34):
It's good to hear voices Kurt.

Speaker 8 (30:36):
This is a short form documentary. It's available on your
YouTube channel. It's called A Father's Day, a Kirk Franklin Story.
You get deep on this one man. You talked about
what is it about? You talked about adoption, growing up
without structure. Tell us what's happening?

Speaker 14 (30:53):
Well, everybody, Well, well, first of most people know that
I was adopted when I was four by sixty four
year old woman and she'd have any other kid. She
was a widow, and she legally adopted me when I
was bought. My name was kurtin Master's right, and so
I would see my biological mother maybe once or twice
a year. Because we know how it is sometimes in
marchin in the ized communities, I mean, sometimes you still

(31:15):
may know of your parents, which can even make the
trauma even more difficult. Because you wonder why you're not
good enough to go with them, right, And so she
would come in and out maybe twice once or twice
a year. I met my biological father when I was six,
I believe to be my father at six, then see
him again until I was thirteen. Didn't see him again
until my albums came out, and then they started to

(31:36):
show up, and that really created a lot of anger
and hated my heart for him, and so I hated
my father.

Speaker 7 (31:42):
I hated him.

Speaker 14 (31:43):
And then so from there, basically about six seven years ago,
I got a call he was dining of cancer. I
flew to go see him. I made peace, and that
was the end of that story. Four months ago, four
months ago, at a random funeral, there was a conversation
in the pastor of that church and a man that
his name is Rick, and Rick started to talk about

(32:06):
how he dated a girl that was the sister of
the young lady that god at the funeral when he
was a young man. People at the funeral began to
look at him and question his height, his ears, his head,
and they were like, you have you ever met Kirk
Franklin because the lady you used to date. But I
re believe that's his biological mother. He said, no, I've
never met him. Never, I've heard of his name. At

(32:28):
that funeral, that became a rumor mill. That made people
start to question who Rick really was. And so because
it got so big in here in the community. It
was about four fold months ago, Rick took a DNA
test on his own my biological the mother heard about it.
She denied that she even knew the man and never
had relationship with the man. He gave me his swabs,

(32:50):
and my nervousness is feared because, as you guys know,
when you you know, kind of have a some type
of notoriety. All my life, I've had people come out
and say the name of my father and my mother
because my adoption story that came out there. I took
my DNA swabs, this man is my biological father.

Speaker 7 (33:06):
My mother denies it.

Speaker 14 (33:07):
She wants another test done, and we get another test.
The second test comes back positive. This man is my
boss's father. She denies it. And so now I have
this issue in my life that I've hated one man
my whole life that even didn't even deserve to be
hated because he would never He died knowing that I
hated him, thinking that he was my father and he's not.

(33:29):
And so now I've got a brand new journey and
this is own happening at the same time of me
working on my new album. And so that's what the
documentary is about. And I call it Father's Day because
I used three log lines, what I missed, where I am,
and what's always been?

Speaker 12 (33:47):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (33:47):
What the hell?

Speaker 8 (33:51):
Wait a minute, though, I'm very rarely at a loss,
but let me say this this you So you got
this all laid out in a doctor.

Speaker 14 (34:00):
Can mineral, Yes sir, Yes, sir.

Speaker 8 (34:03):
And it's on your YouTube channel, yes sir.

Speaker 14 (34:06):
What happened was that this was the first time ever
that I had a videographer that was that was hired
with me just to get behind the scenes footage on
my new album.

Speaker 7 (34:16):
He was just with me.

Speaker 14 (34:17):
It was my first time in my time career, guys,
that I had a videographer with me while working on
the new Alchm. So this all happened apportunities. I got
a phone, couple of friends said we need to sit down.
I got something to say, and so my videographer was
already in the studio with me. I'm in the middle
of working on the alpham So when I'm doing these
tests and going to these people, so the biographer stollowing

(34:38):
me as I go and give the results to mister Rick,
as I go to my mother and she's deniga as
we go get the second test, and then there are
other people that you're going to be very shocked to
see that in the documentary that I had to go
to as well. And so I'm not going to give
it all the way, but it is all happening in
real time, and we partnered with an incredible coming out

(34:59):
of Los Angeles.

Speaker 7 (35:00):
Could walk to Steve with.

Speaker 12 (35:03):
Kirk.

Speaker 8 (35:03):
Kirk, Kirk, you just said there are some other people
in the video that you're gonna be shot. I ain't
in the video, what, Kurt? I can't take nothing else
right now, Kurt, I can't, Kirk. I'm going through enough
right now. I can't take another shot. Am I in
the video?

Speaker 14 (35:22):
Just say no, ladies and gentlemen, I am uh.

Speaker 7 (35:28):
You know, I just think you guys.

Speaker 14 (35:32):
You say I'm your.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Daddy, I'm taking here talking about him, your damn dady.
We'll be back. I know I better not need to
damn daddy. We'll be back with Kirk, Franklins right out.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
You're listening morning show.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
Hey everybody, we're back with more of the Steve R.
Morning Shot. Especially guess this morning's Kirk from and we
clean the ass.

Speaker 8 (36:01):
Kirk has on his YouTube channel, y'all, and we didn't
know this was coming, but boy, he just dropped off.
He just dropped the atomic bomb on this show. And
Kirk Franklin, it has a new documentary out. It's on
his YouTube channel, so you got to subscribe to the
YouTube channel. It's called A Father's Day. It's called Father's Day,

(36:22):
a Kirk Franklin Story. And Kirk exposes his whole story
and this is crazy man.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
You know, man, what do you attribute this to? Kirk?

Speaker 8 (36:34):
Because to have the videographer that just for shooting the
album and it happens to capture all of this life
changing information.

Speaker 2 (36:43):
How was that?

Speaker 7 (36:45):
You know?

Speaker 14 (36:46):
And you know, yeall are we gonna say, you know, man,
that's just nothing, But that's the God himself, because there
was no way you can plan this. And do nobody
want nothing like this in their life? You know, I'm
fifty three years old, you know, I may peace, well,
I feel I can make peace with the man. And
then I think that people also in understands. Some people say, well, man,
this is good, this is this is wonderful that you

(37:07):
find your father. And I think people don't understand. I
hated the man that I believed to be my father,
not because I didn't want him to be my father.
I hated him because I wanted.

Speaker 7 (37:17):
Him to be my father.

Speaker 14 (37:19):
So I've got over half a century of pain of
chasing somebody. And you know how we are in humans,
We chase people that don't want us. So I wanted
him to be my father. So I just think I
don't take that pain as of oh, okay, well here's
my new dad, and now I'm gonna let that. It's
like I'm still dealing with the the just the aftermath

(37:40):
of that I wanted someone that didn't want me. Okay,
here's somebody, and now I'm trying to learn how to
rethink and reprogram while at the same time, even though
I wasn't raised for my violence for mother, because she
continues to deny this. First of all, why wouldn't nobody
love me? Why wouldn't nobody accept me? And I am
now with a whole new question in my life. Oh right, God,

(38:03):
now why and why now?

Speaker 8 (38:06):
Wow, Kirk, I'm gonna tell you something, man. Everybody, y'all
need to go watch. It's just on his YouTube channel,
Kirk Franklin's YouTube channel. It's called Father's Day, a Kirk
Franklin Story. I'm gonna watch it today because I want
to see how all this panned out. But I tell
you one thing, here's the one takeaway that I got
from this, Kirk, is that you're fifty three and I'm

(38:29):
sixty six. Ain't no way in hell I'm your daddy.
So thank you for that at.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Least the same about me.

Speaker 8 (38:35):
Who because I can't take nothing else. I have nothing
else on YouTube, blue tooth, I can't have nothing cybergs
face Internet, I g yog TikTok.

Speaker 2 (53:46):
It's time for the Strawberry Letter.

Speaker 15 (53:47):
Onoe my good friend, Shirlie Strawberry.

Speaker 10 (53:49):
Thank you, my good friend Junior. Subject stuck on the
third row. Dear Stephen Shirley, you haven't lived until you
got stuck on the third row of an escal. I'm
so disgusted that I don't care if my ex boyfriend
or his wife here this letter.

Speaker 1 (54:07):
I was dating this guy that lives about an hour
from me.

Speaker 10 (54:11):
I had a business meeting in his city, so I
stopped by his job to get a quick kiss and
hug before I left town. He wanted more than that,
so I met him in the parking lot of his
job and he got in his truck. He drove to
the back of the parking lot and we got on
the third row of the truck for a quickie. It
was such a thrill for me because I had never

(54:32):
done anything like that. I have my pants off and
my wig. I mean, we were really getting it on.
My boyfriend's phone kept ringing, so he paused for a
minute so he could answer it. It was his wife
and she told him she was close to his job
and she wanted him to meet her for lunch. He
gave her so many excuses, but she was not having it.

(54:54):
Then she said she was about to turn into the
parking lot to pick him up. This crazy man told
her he would meet her there, and he was already
in his truck.

Speaker 1 (55:03):
She pulled up behind his truck and we almost passed out.

Speaker 10 (55:08):
I can't believe how fast he pulled up his pants
and climbed to the front seat. He yelled out to
her that he was going to follow her to the
restaurant so she would not have to get out of
her car. I was in the back trying to put
my wig on. He apologized over and over as he
left me in his car to go have lunch with
his wife. And I called an uber on his car alarm,

(55:29):
and his car alarm went off when I opened the
door to get out of the back seat. I hope
his wife saw me. I'm not accepting any of his apologies,
because if he really cared, he would have told his wife.

Speaker 9 (55:41):
No.

Speaker 10 (55:41):
Would I be wrong to tell his wife what happened
that day? You better be glad she had no idea
you were in the back of that truck. You already
know you would be wrong to tell his wife what
happened that day. The other thing is she doesn't sound
like anyone to play with, okay, don't play with her
as to term, and as she was to get her

(56:02):
husband to go to lunch with her that day, she
would stop at nothing to find you and whip your behind.

Speaker 1 (56:07):
This was a very close call for you.

Speaker 10 (56:09):
You don't seem to understand that, so be thankful that
you got out of the truck. And one piece finally,
and that his wife doesn't know you or what was
going on. There's nothing you can do anyway. I mean,
forget about getting him back, telling his wife and all
of that. He left you in there because there was
no way he could let his wife see you and
know that he was cheating at that moment. She's number

(56:30):
one period and that's why he's not going you know,
that's why he's not going to tell her anything. I
don't know why you would even think he'd tell her.
So let this go, Let him go, get your wig
and move on. Okay, you dodged a bullet. This could
have been way worse, Steve.

Speaker 8 (56:49):
Well, lady, you started your letter off and you said
you told us you haven't lived until you get stuck
on the third row of and escalate. So I was
expecting this to be a thrill for you, and turns
out well it actually was. And you bragging body, Yeah,
you ain't lived till you've been on the third first escalade.

(57:11):
It's way better places to go, way better, you know,
Go get stuck in the sand in Tahiti somewhere.

Speaker 2 (57:20):
Go go do something like that. Go, you know, get
a out of air balloon, Go somewhere.

Speaker 8 (57:25):
You know your expectations is low the back of a truck.
That's you ain't live, girl, You ain't live to you
to got your wig blowed off in the back of
a truck. What it ain't enough room in that way
where your hat and fell off. It ain't even enough

(57:46):
room back there for you keep your hair. Lady, Come
on now, and I'm so disgusted that I don't care
if my ex boyfriend or his wife here this letter. Okay, cool,
if he your ex boyfriend, it's your ex boyfriend. But
you've always known he had a wife. Though you know
he didn't hide that from you. You knew the man

(58:06):
was married. You was dating a guy. He lived an
hour from you, so you went to had a business
meet in the city. You want to get a hug
and a kiss when he was in town. Tried to leave,
but he wanted more, so he convinced you to come
out in the parking lot with him. Y'all drove in
the back of it and got in the third row
to do a quickt Now here's where the letter. This
is what you want. It was such a thrill for

(58:28):
me because I had never done anything like that. Really, really,
you know they kill me in these letters when they
say I've never done anything like that. You sure know
how to get your heads back there, though, and then
told us we ain't lived till you've been stuck on

(58:48):
the third seat of an escalator. Girl, it sounded to
me like you know something. Anyway, I had my pants
off and my wig. See that that'll throw me in it?

Speaker 1 (59:03):
What what say it said?

Speaker 8 (59:05):
Don't I don't really, I don't want you to take
your wig off. Your pants off, that's cool, but please
don't take your wig off. I don't see the stocking
cap with these little braids in it and all this hell.
I don't want to see this dew rag up under
your head. I don't want to see your hair corn
road which with lint in it can't keep the wig,
can't keep the wing. It's just uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
It's hot. It's hot.

Speaker 8 (59:30):
I know it's hot, but come on, deal with it. Anyway,
I had my pants off and my wig. I mean,
we were really getting it on. My boyfriend phone kept ringing,
so he paused for a minute so he could answer.
It was his wife, and she told him she was
close to the job. She was coming up that half
lunch he tried to make up excuse. She said, wasn't

(59:53):
having it.

Speaker 2 (59:53):
Meet me. We going to lunch. Then all of a sudden,
he said he was going to meet her in the
parking lot.

Speaker 8 (59:58):
She pulled up behind the truck and we almost passed out.

Speaker 10 (01:00:05):
Coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour, we'll
have part two of Steve's response today's Strawberry letter. Subject
is I mean, this is a good one right here,
stuck on the third row. We'll get back into it
right after this.

Speaker 1 (01:00:19):
You're listening hard morning show. All right, Come on, Steve,
let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject stuck on the
third row.

Speaker 8 (01:00:28):
This woman here talking about we ain't lived till you've
been on the third row of an escalade. But now
she disgusted and she don't care if her ex boyfriend
or his wife here this letter. So she's known the
man was married all along. You're dating the guy live
About an hour way. She went to do something in
town by the and she was fitting the lead. So
she went by a job to get a hug and
a kiss right quick. He wanted more. They end up

(01:00:50):
getting in their truck. He got to escalade, going around
in the back parking lot. She didne climbed in the
back seat, talking about it was such a three or
them me because I've never done anything like that like
this before. But your old las knew how to climb
in that back seat, though. So you got back there
and then it got hot back there, and you took
your wig off and your pants. Now I didn't mind
you taking pants off. Why we got take wig off?

Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
We've been over this because it was moving and shifting
and hot.

Speaker 8 (01:01:15):
That's the only thing in this letter that really bothered me.
Hey pants, why's what? Why's you taking your wig off?

Speaker 2 (01:01:24):
I liked the wig.

Speaker 8 (01:01:26):
I approved of it.

Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
I was there when you bought it. Had the little
lady come out the back.

Speaker 8 (01:01:31):
You know, I couldn't understand what she was saying, but
she came out the back, and you know, we bought
the wig, and I said, cool. You know, I gave
you the money, high ass whigs. You're a four hundred
dollars weik.

Speaker 14 (01:01:39):
You know.

Speaker 8 (01:01:39):
It wasn't no regular wig, you know, because they had
them other wigs up there for thirty nine ninety five
and I totally I didn't like them because they and
any words of Richard Smiley I didn't like that one
because it looked like Easter egg grass I didn't wig.
So we went on some money on this good ass wig,
and you took it out and then kept ringing and

(01:02:00):
he didn't want an answer.

Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
And then he finally answer and it was his wife.

Speaker 8 (01:02:03):
She said she was in the air. She was coming
up to have lunch with him. He was trying to
make his excuse me. She wasn't having it. She said,
I'm putting up in the park lift. He said, don't
get out of the car. I'll be out there in
my car in the parking lit She pulled up right
behind the truck. While they was back there getting it on,
she said, we almost passed out. I can't believe how
fast He pulled up his pants and climbed to the

(01:02:25):
front seat.

Speaker 2 (01:02:27):
Then he yelled out to there there, I'm gonna follow
you to the restaurant. That way.

Speaker 8 (01:02:31):
You ain't got to get out the car. So now
she go back in there, he and she in the back.
You got to get these pants back on. She tried
to put her wig back on. Damn that wig. You
got to get these pants on. If you get these
pants on, I can fix the story. But you're sitting
up in here without this wig on. I don't know

(01:02:51):
how I'm gonna tell her this, my brother, but you
gotta get this wig on. But you have got to
get these pants on first. Damn that wig You can
leave a wig off. I'll just tell you, my brother,
that's all I can do if you just lead a
wig off. But you gotta get these pants on. That's
what I should have said. You gotta get paints on, okay.
And then and then as he left me in his

(01:03:14):
car to go to lunch with his wife, roll them down,
windows up, and left you in the car while he
went to lunch with his wife.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
Well, you did a smart thing.

Speaker 8 (01:03:29):
You stayed back there, because I'm telling you right now,
if you jumped out that car with him, it could
be in the end for you. You might not be
typing the letter. You'll be in the police report and
in a draw in a draw down at the mob.
So it's a good thing you stayed in there, he apologized,
over and over. As he left me in his car

(01:03:51):
to go have lunch with his wife, I called him
uber and his car limb went off. When I opened
the door to get out of the back seat, I
hope his wife saw me. I'm not accepting any of
his apologies, because if he really cared, he would have
told his wife. No, she down there, she at the job,

(01:04:16):
she behind him in the truck. Right, This ain't the
time to say no. Would I be wrong to tell
his wife what happened that day? Of course you would.
You wasn't telling her what happened no other day, So
why you want to tell her what happened today? All
them other times you've been seeing this guy that lived

(01:04:37):
an hour a way, you wasn't worried about it. But
now something, Now you've had to pay a price for it.
Now you want to tell his wife what I be wrong? Yes,
you'd be wrong. You would be wrong for that, because
the only reason he climbed in the back seat of
that escalade is because you drove up there and let
him put you in the back seat of the exp

(01:05:00):
That's see, why don't you to take responsibility for your
part of it? The only reason it was going so
good back there, and you had your pants off and
your wig off. You took your pants off and you
took your wig off. Now, we've all helped a lot
of people slide out of pasts before you know.

Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
Anticipate part of them.

Speaker 8 (01:05:23):
You know, game recognized King I wouldn't you know, And
you probably had to have some help in the back
seat and at third see, you probably can't get out
of them bout yourself because they're probably tight and you
can't got a little help getting out the pans. She
took the wig off yourself, though you don't really need
no help. You took that off yourself. You can, you
can do it, but hot, real hard. You can pull

(01:05:45):
off this hot will it's hot now because she behind
y'all with the lights.

Speaker 2 (01:05:49):
On going on too while your car shaken.

Speaker 8 (01:05:55):
So yeah, yeah, you be dead wrong for telling his
wife what happened today because you never wanted to tell
her what happened all them other days when you.

Speaker 2 (01:06:02):
Was cheating with her husband.

Speaker 8 (01:06:05):
Once again, why do men cheat oftentimes because there are
so many women who are willing to cheat with them.
Y'all could stop y'all's own pain with each other if
you all would just stick together and not sleep with
the other person's husband. But if you're willing to do that,
you have to pass some of the responsibility.

Speaker 6 (01:06:26):
All right.

Speaker 10 (01:19:56):
We want to thank first of all Steve Kirk Franklin
for joining us earlier today. His documentary Father's Day, A
Kirk Franklin Story, is streaming right now on his YouTube channel.

Speaker 1 (01:20:07):
Check it out.

Speaker 8 (01:20:07):
How crazy story, right, y'all got to go check this out.

Speaker 1 (01:20:11):
Yeah, you found out you're not his dad.

Speaker 2 (01:20:14):
That was That's all I needed.

Speaker 8 (01:20:18):
Thought that need nothing else. This week, Lord, it's been
one I do not need to be trending, No, damn.
But you know, man, it's I've been I've been learning

(01:20:38):
so many things. And my closing remarks this week, man,
it's just been sharing with people who's going through situations
and you know more, a lot of stuff you end
up going through is just beyond your control. You know,
it's circumstance. You know, you find yourself in a city situation,

(01:21:00):
or you find yourself something happened or a consequence, something
just besets you.

Speaker 1 (01:21:08):
You don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
It's just life, man.

Speaker 8 (01:21:10):
But some of these parts of life is so unfair,
it seems, you know, because life oftentimes sometimes it's not
fair because your life is intertwined with other people, and
sometimes another person's decision can affect you just because you're
associated with them.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
You know, a lot comes.

Speaker 8 (01:21:33):
Along with being famous, a lot, a lot that you
don't ask for, bank on, count on, visualize, and it's become.

Speaker 2 (01:21:44):
Such an ugly.

Speaker 8 (01:21:45):
Thing sometimes to be famous, and what we're experiencing right now,
that's something I have to bear. But everybody has something
to bear. Everybody. You can be not famous at all,
or everybody got something to bear. Life has splices and

(01:22:06):
slices and pieces for all of us that just don't
taste good. Life ain't all pie. Now, life ain't pie.
I wish it was, but it ain't. Some of this
stuff is just plain old sugar honey iced tea.

Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
And it don't even have to be from you. You
you're just a part of it.

Speaker 8 (01:22:28):
But you know what I've learned, man, and it's sort
of fun. I was sharing it with my morning crew
this morning. You know how they got those numbers that
people can change their numbers so you don't recognize it,
you know, And they got that they run it through
an app and then but I've already figured out how
that works because I have, you know, very smart people,
because I have to protect myself oftentimes. Well, somebody I

(01:22:51):
know did one of those things through their app and
was able to text me but make it look like
another number, so they contact show up. But I have
a way of doing that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:03):
And you know what they said to me.

Speaker 8 (01:23:06):
And I was always suspicious of this dude anyway, But
his text to me was, hey, Steve, where your God?
And now in a laughing emoji. And you know what,
I didn't get mad or nothing. I answered the question
not to him, but I answered the question out loud.
My God is right here. My God is where he

(01:23:28):
always been for me. He right here. As a matter
of fact, he done tucked me and Marjorie up under
his wings.

Speaker 2 (01:23:37):
Were good.

Speaker 8 (01:23:38):
These slings and arrows you shooting, They not doing the
damage you thought. They not that fire you started. We
feel the heat, it's hot, but we ain't getting burned.
The thing that my enemy has set out to use
to destroy me. God gonna flip all that and turn
it for good. Now, do I know how absolutely not.

(01:24:00):
Do I know what this is for what it's about,
Absolutely not. But you know what, My God is a
good God. He's a loving God, and I can't tell
you how many lemons in my life he didn't turn
it into lemonade. I can't even count the times. Do
you know how many times God has protected you from
your enemies and you didn't even know it? Do you

(01:24:21):
know how many people meant evil for you and God
turned around and made it good? You know how many
people then dug a hole for you and wound up
getting in it thyself.

Speaker 2 (01:24:31):
Do you know how many times God came to your rescue?
I can't even count the time. So why would he
leave me?

Speaker 15 (01:24:39):
Now?

Speaker 8 (01:24:41):
God didn't bring me this far to leave me. See
I'm sure about this. So you know where God at.

Speaker 2 (01:24:47):
He right here and all this is is a test
of my faith, That's all it is.

Speaker 8 (01:24:54):
But since it's a test of my faith, let me
show you how I'm passing it because I'm calling God
God out on his word. God's promises is true, that
he would never leave me off of safe me, that
he would protect me and shield me from my enemies,
that he would make my enemies my footstool.

Speaker 2 (01:25:11):
I'm just sitting here.

Speaker 8 (01:25:12):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:25:13):
Do I like it? Nope? Nope, not at all. Are
we human? Yes?

Speaker 7 (01:25:17):
We are.

Speaker 8 (01:25:18):
When you are going through things out there, folks, I
understand you're human. You have the right to be hurt
or be sad. Noor wonder why because you're human. But
y'all form a relationship with God and let God give
you the strength you need to endure. You can't remove

(01:25:38):
problems from life. You can't stop the enemy from attacking you.
For what you can have is a relationship with God
that he gives you the strength to endure and protect you.
And what they do for evil will bring no harm
to you. I'm telling y'all, man, God is real. Please
form a relationship with God. He would provide you with

(01:25:59):
the love peace. That's unexplainable. It's people doing it. Man,
I don't know how y'all taking it. Because we got God.
You should have a relationship with God so when they
come for you, you got some form. That's what I'm learning.
That's what I'm sharing with y'all. God is good man,
even when it's going bad, he's still good. Hey, talk

(01:26:22):
to God today. He'd love to hear from you. Y'all
have a great weekend. You understand we will too. Y'all
do the same they y'all all right.
