Speaker 2 (00:04):
Y'all know what time y'all don't know y'all all at all.

w The monic jup wouldn't come come out?

Speaker 1 (01:59):
You think I sure will. Good morning everybody, y'all.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Listening to the voice come on dig me now, one
and only Steve Harvin got a radio show, keep saying
it can't stop. Man, oh man, oh man, what a
journey it has been. I thank God for every single
step of the way. I learned to thank him for
the bad times too, because it taught me something. All
the bad times, all the failures, they became valuable experiences

(02:28):
in my life. Every time I failed, I learned a
little bit more about getting up. Every time I was
told no, it moved me one step closer to yes.
It made me stronger, It toughened my skin. It made
me learn how to deal with haters. It made me
learn how to deal with people who don't have your
best interest at heart. Man, ain't y'all all out there

(02:49):
feeling me on this one right here. It teaches you
who is who in your life. It shows you who
you can depend on and who you came. And at
the end of the day, what has taught me most
of all my hardships in my life? And it's really
about me and God. That is the one factor that
has been never changed in my life. God has always

(03:12):
been the same for me and for you and for
all of us. His word is true. It don't waiver,
it don't shake. You can shape it, readjust it if
you want to. It is really the way it's written.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
It really is.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
You have your version of it if you want to.
But if you just read it the way it is,
it's real clear. Ain't no loopholes in it. Every time
you jump through a loophole, there's something over there written
that that counters that.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
So is what I want to get to today. Listen
to me.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
You got it within you? Oh it's there, Just use it.
Listen to me close. You got it within you. Oh
it's there.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Just use it. If you hear me clearly, I'm really
finn to show you something this morning. Within you, Oh
is there? Just use it.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Steve, what you're talking about. See, here's what's wrong with
a lot of people. Here's what's stopping so many people.
You keep looking. We keep looking for others to save us.
We keep looking for someone else to rescue us. We
always looking for some group of people or somebody to

(04:26):
accept us. We keep looking for someone else's approval. We
always looking for some group or somebody to deliver us, somebody,
some group of people to give us credibility, somebody or.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Some group of people who says we matter.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
We spend so much time right there, and when the
cavalry don't come over the hill, when it ain't no saving,
it ain't no deliverance, And hey, you don't get accepted,
and don't nobody really come to save you, and there't
nobody vouching for you and giving you credibility and throw
you into something naw, you into this little state of man.
I don't know what I'm gonna do. Oh you got

(05:10):
it within you, Oh it's there, Just use it. You
want to know what the real deal is, y'all? It's
you and God, and it's the God in you.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Man. I wish I could explain this right to you today.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
I want you to fill me on this right here,
when you shake everything out the way, get rid of
all your expectations of people. The relationship you thought was
gonna last forever that didn't make it, the child that
you wanted to be, this that turned out to be that,
your friend you thought was your friend, that stabbed you.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
In the back.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
You found out they wouldn't the job you thought was
gonna keep you and you'd retire on they didn't, closed down,
gave you a pink slip.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
All of this.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Man that death promised that somebody told you they was
gonna loan you this money, and on loan day they
say they ain't got it. Oh man, oh man, oh man.
This money you thought was gonna come through on this check.
The check ain't there?

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Oh man?

Speaker 2 (06:05):
How many disappointments in life can you get? You thought
you had enough credit hour was to graduate. You found
out two weeks before you didn't.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
You can't graduate. Oh listen here, man, what's gonna happen? Man?

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Look at the disappointment in my life right now? But
let me explain something to you. When you get rid
of all of that, guess what you really got? You
got God, that's the whole enchilada. Baby, that's the ball
of wax. That's the monkeys in the barrel, that's the
bag of chips.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Listen to me.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
If you got God, do you understand that that's sufficient?
That that say all you need? Can you feel me?

Speaker 5 (06:40):
Now?

Speaker 1 (06:41):
You and God and the God in you, it's really.

Speaker 5 (06:46):
What you need.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Stop looking for all these outside sources for approval, to
gain acceptance, to get credibility, somebody to save you, the
calvary coming over the hill. Why won't they recognize me?
Why won't they get me closure? Why they fire me?
Why they forek closing on my house? Don't they know
I'm laid off. When you get through it, all of
that whining, it's gonna come down to you and God

(07:11):
and the God in you. If God created man in
his own image, God is a part of you, that
is a piece of you that's godly.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
I don't care who you are. I don't care what
mistake you made.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
The murderer that's sitting in jail today because of a
moment in his life that he's now paying for, has
God in him.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
The biggest criminal.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
When he gets through criminalizing or whatever you want to
call it, he's sitting there by his self.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
That is a piece of God in him that lets
him know this ain't the way. This's wrong. You can
love his money if you want to put you out
of line, and you gonna pay. At the end of
the day.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
When I get through on this microphone, on this TV,
all these articles, when I get through it all of that,
you know what it comes down to. Because see, it
ain't always been this way for me. You know, I've
been trying to get here, trying to get there. Listen
to me, it's been me and God and it's been
to God in me. When I woke up a few
years back and I realized that's really what it was,

(08:15):
it changed my whole life.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
It changed my whole life.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Your whole life can get changed when you realize that
it's really you and God and the God in you,
really man. People disappoint you, You argue with people, You
fall out with people, You break up with people, You
divorce people. You got people who you thought was friends,
all of a sudden you find out they're talking about it's.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Crazy out of here. You been going what's going on?
What's really going on?

Speaker 2 (08:41):
But that's because guess what you got all yours banked
on them? When you going bank it on the one
thing that you can count on.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
God's word ain't changed since we got here. It's solid.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
If you pray, believe, work hard, don't doubt you'll get
whatever you ask for. That's the fact that ain't no
rumor speakle out here doing it every day. Now, if
you ain't trying that, listen to me. You got it
within you.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Oh it's there. You just gotta use it. There is
a weapon available to man called prayer.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
Use that.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
See. I look at my life, man, whenever I get
a little shaky, I look back. Oh hey, man, I
ain't really talk with him too much yesterday. Oh, tighten up.
I'm just telling you real. You got a better answer.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Oh oh, oh, I know what.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Oh my bad, Steve. Now, Steve, I ain't winning costs.
They ain't get me the loan all now, Steve, I
ain't winning costs.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
She left me. He left me.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
I ain't winning, Steve, because I got stuck with these kids.
I got a divorce. They fired me. They foreclothes on
my own. That's why I ain't winning. You ain't winning
cause you ain't praying. You got to pray and believe
in work. That's the key. Come on, man, you got
it within you. Oh, it's there. You just got to
use it. It's just you and God, and it's to

(09:54):
God in you. And what y'all gonna do about that?

Down the wrong boulevard on this one. Player.

Speaker 11 (17:37):

My wife, you're seeing that in the office and all
that maybe wouldn't come up there tomorrow. It's gonna be

You're gonna have a problem with me if we keep
going down this road right.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Now, okay.

Speaker 8 (17:56):
So, so it's okay for her to have her butt
cheeks out when she dropped the kids off, but as
soon as I want to have her come out of
office for a meeting about this situation right now, right now.

Speaker 11 (18:06):
You you said you're claiming her butt ceases out like
seases out right now?

You out of pocket?

Speaker 8 (18:12):
Okay, No, it was out of pocket when she pulled
up and got out the car and her butt was
out of pocket. That's when it was out of pocket.
So so what you can't do, Nate, is be mad
at me by what your wife then put on and
walk up into the school.

gotta do on this on this end, your in is

school saying I need to have a meeting, a private
meeting with your wife, so when her and I can

a car accident. I'm fully recovered, but she still has
to have one more surgery on her leg because of that,

(21:12):
and since it was her car that was totaled, she
wants to split the money. Sixty forty the insurance company
gave her the money for a car and paid a
settlement for pain and suffering. She claims she's had more
pain and has suffered more. She says she will take
me to court.

Speaker 6 (21:27):
If I don't agree to it. I still can't believe
she's tripping.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
What should I do?

gonna be honest with you. In all my years, I've
never heard of a group settlement. And here is the settlement.

He just said the insurance company gave her money for
a car, paid a settlement for pain and suffering, and
she still wants to split the money sixty forty because
she has more pain and has suffered more, which is.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
True, Yeah she has.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
Well, the car was hers, obviously, Yeah it was her,
so they paid for the car. Now the pain is suffering.
I don't know how they lumped it together. I've never
heard of at again, But okay, let's just say let's
for practical purpose, it's a hundred thousand. Let's say that
it's a hundred thousand. You give her sixty, you get
forty thousand.

Speaker 9 (23:26):
No good, Yeah, why would you want to tie this
up in court?

Speaker 6 (23:31):
Get attorneys have to pay them.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
That's crazy.

Speaker 6 (23:34):
Just take the forty and she still got to have
another surgery.

Speaker 1 (23:36):

slammed into her side of the car.

Speaker 6 (23:48):

Speaker 9 (23:51):
Jonison Harlem says, I'm dating my cousin's ex and she
recently told him about us. He said he doesn't mind
and gave me his blessing. But every time my cousin
and I are with our boys, he makes jokes about
me getting his sloppy seconds seconds. I can take the joking,
but he also talks about how he used to make
her squeal and call out his name. That's when I

(24:12):
get to the point of wanting to fight him. Mind you,
he dated her when they were twenty, and he's thirty
one and he's thirty one, and it must mean she's
thirty one and he's thirty two. Now, probably, how do
I get him to stop disrespecting me and my girlfriend, pull.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Him over to the side and say, hey, dog, listen
to me. Now.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
You gave me your blessing. She told me it was cool.
But what I don't appreciate is you dog and her
in front of everybody and real men.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
Don't do that.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Dog, Just leave my girl's name out your mouth. I'm
gonna ask you come. But if you keep doing it, bro,
then I'm gonna have a problem with that. And you're
disrespecting her and me when you do that. That's a
simple conversation. Then if he do it after that, then
you got to go and do something to it. What Yeah,
you got to go and do something to it.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
We have to as after that. It's just man law.
After that.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
If I asked you not to disrespect my girl no more,
and I talk, I come to you man, a man
away from the other fellas, and you get right back
in front of me and you do it again. What
you're saying is I do what I won't do. I
don't give a damn about you. Now, I've talked to you,
so obviously that wasn't the point. So when I bust
you upside, your damn fauehead. I bet you understand me,

(25:31):

jokes to him. That's funny in him, But is he listening?

a build a special casket for her?

Speaker 12 (43:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (43:36):
Okay, that's what we're kind of going through with my sister.
We ordered a special casket for for for my sister,
and I'm assuming this is the same thing that you
guys went through. I've called several of her children, but
I wasn't able to get in touch with anybody. But
the funeral home actually had your name on file as well,
so they gave me your number where I will be

(43:57):
able to talk to you. Is that is that? Okay?

Speaker 12 (44:00):
Yeah, that's okay. You can speak to me.

Speaker 17 (44:02):
But you know what seems to be a problem.

Speaker 5 (44:05):
Well, listen, we the funeral is actually in two days, okay,
and we ordered one of those special caskets, but it
doesn't look like it's going to be in for another week,
so you know, it's almost like we're gonna, we're gonna,
we're not gonna have a casket for her, you know,
for the funeral. And you know, like I said, the

(44:25):
funeral told us about you know that. You guys, we
are the last ones that ordered a casket of that size,
and you know, me and the rest of the family
has been you know, we've been trying to figure out
what to do and what to do. Do you think
it's anyone possible we can borrow the casket that your
aim is in, and then when the casket comes in

(44:46):
that we ordered, we can put her in that casket
and put her back down to rest like she's always been.
Do you think that's right? Hello?

Speaker 12 (44:57):
Hello, if peat yourself, what exactly are you asking me?

Speaker 5 (45:02):
Well, what I'm saying is, do you think we can
borrow your ain'm casket because you know, the funerals in
two days and the casket is not going to be
in in order for us to be to bury her
in a casket for you know, to accommodate her size.
That's what I'm asking.

Speaker 5 (45:21):
First of all, who is this? Okay, No, my name
is Larry, Like I said, my name is Larry, I
got you. I got you guys. Like I said, I
tried to call some of her kids, but nobody ever
picked up. When I called, I had her niece's number
on file too. You are her niece, Vicky, right, Yes,
I am. Okay, Well that's what I'm saying. Do you

(45:41):
think that maybe you can talk to the children and
see if we can maybe use that particular casket?

Speaker 12 (45:47):
Oh okay, wait a minute, what the talking about this?
First of all, who is this you? You gotta be
losing your mind if you think I'm gonna let you
dig up my ami for just to bury your nose.

Speaker 5 (45:59):
Yeah, but I understand where you come from. But what
I'm trying to say is that we don't have a
casket big enough. And they would say they let us
know that you guys were the last ones that had
a casket.

Speaker 17 (46:09):
That you know you gotta do with us.

Speaker 12 (46:12):
That's your stuff out?

Speaker 7 (51:47):
Ladies and jentlemen, It's time for the Strawberry. Let her
put your hands together for my girl, Shirley Strawberry.

Speaker 3 (51:54):
All right.

Speaker 6 (51:54):
Subject, thank you, junior.

Speaker 9 (51:57):
Subject tired. I'm tired of sneaking around with her. Stephen Shirley.
I'm a twenty seven year old single man and I
would love to stop sneaking around with the love of
my life. I've been friends with my secret lover for
twenty years, and our parents are best friends. Our families
did everything together for over twenty years, but they have
no idea about our secret romance. She and I have

(52:20):
been best friends since we were seven. By the time
we turned thirteen, she was blossoming.

Speaker 6 (52:25):
Into a woman and I liked it. She was curious
about my body and I enjoyed caressing hers.

Speaker 9 (52:32):
When she let me on her seventeenth birthday, she told
me she was ready to have sex and she wanted
me to be her first. That was the moment I
had been waiting for, so we both had sex for
the first time. I fell in love with her by
the time I was eighteen. We continue to secretly have
sex throughout college, and now that we're grown, she still

(52:55):
likes to sneak around with me. I've dated other girls,
but no woman compares to her. I have asked her
to be my girlfriend so many times, but she is
afraid of what her parents will think. She's been dating
a guy for almost two years and we still have
sex often. But we still have sex often. She's told
me that she's not had sex with him, and I

(53:18):
believed her until recently, when she told me that he's
talking about marriage. My heart started beating fast, and I
panicked and poured out all of my feelings to her
and said I wanted to be with her and marry her.
She said we could never be together because although we
are not blood relatives, our families are linked so closely

(53:39):
it's like we're related. I yelled at her that I
don't make love to my relatives. Why won't she give
us a chance? I don't want to lose her for good,
So what should I do? Wow, you don't want to
lose her for good?

Speaker 6 (53:54):
Well, she's gone.

Speaker 9 (53:55):
I mean you've already lost her. She never wanted you
for anything more than a side piece anyway. Everything was
always in secret. Okay, She's never given you any reason
to think otherwise. All you have to do is listen
to her and read between her lines. You are her
side piece, her jump off, her plaything, and that's it.

(54:18):
I mean, there are clues throughout the letter.

Speaker 5 (54:20):
You say.

Speaker 9 (54:21):
Now that we're grown, she still likes to sneak around
with you. Yeah, she wants to keep you a secret.
She won't date you because she's afraid of what her
parents might think. Really, but she's grown. You just said
you guys are grown. You've told her you want to
be with her and you want to marry her. Still
nothing from her. Nothing.

Speaker 6 (54:42):
She's thinking about marrying some other guy.

Speaker 9 (54:44):
She said, you guys could never be together because your relatives.

Speaker 6 (54:49):
Excuse after excuse after excuse with this one.

Speaker 9 (54:53):
She knows you're not related, but she's using that so
she can keep things as they are so you can
be her little secret.

Speaker 6 (55:01):
Okay, you know she just wants you for sex.

Speaker 1 (55:06):
I hope you know that.

Speaker 9 (55:07):
And because you're in love with her, you just keep
giving her what you want, what she wants whenever she
wants it, which means she gets to have you and
her fiance.

Speaker 6 (55:17):
She gets her cake and she can eat it too.

Speaker 9 (55:21):
Who is this woman? I mean, what is this hold
on you she has? You got to move on from her,
you do. I know you've dated other women, but you
can't stop comparing them to her.

Speaker 1 (55:32):
You got to stop that. That's the way you move on.

Speaker 9 (55:35):
I mean you got to step back and take a
look at what's really what's really going on here.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
I just say, wake up, stay woke.

Speaker 6 (55:41):
After you wake up from this dream you're in about her, then.

Speaker 9 (55:46):
Maybe hopefully you'll stop being her little you know, secret,
her little guinea pig, her little play thing, and you
can move on from there.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
Steve one hundred percent completely disagree. Hell boy, come on now,
this opportunity pimp, don't uh let me walk you through
this thing. I'm tired of sneaking around with her. Twenty

(56:17):
seven year old single man. You want to stop sneaking around.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
With the love of your life. Boy.

Speaker 2 (56:22):
Come on, do you know how many women are dying
to hear that? That's why I know we got a
chance here. I've been friends with my secret lover for
over twenty years. I didn't know what the hell was
going on here. Seven were best friends, our family did
everything together for twenty years, but they had no idea
about our secret romance.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
Now this wasn't.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
Let her take a little bit of a delusional turn.
She and I have been best friends since we were seven.
By the time we turned thirteen, she was blossoming into
a woman.

Speaker 1 (57:00):
Don't know. She wasn't atty, Doggie, No, she wasn't, Sulie.
You was flat Chester.

Speaker 3 (57:10):
Okay, keep with.

Speaker 9 (57:13):
Thirteen.

Speaker 2 (57:13):
Yeah, look at Monica over there, shaking her head. This
line healthy.

Speaker 1 (57:19):
She say that.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
By the time and she was time thirteen, she was
blossoming into the woman, and I like it, dog know,
she wasn't. She was cursed about my body and I
enjoyed caressing Herris and were on seventeenth birthday. She was
ready to have sex. She wanted me to be her first.
That was the moment I had been waiting for my dude.

(57:43):
So we both had sex for the first time I
fell in love with her. By the time I was eighteen.
We secretly had sex throughout college, and now we've grown.
She still likes to sneak around with me. I updated
other girls, but no other woman come passed to her.
Asked her to be my girlfriend many times, but she's
afraid of what her parents would think.

Speaker 1 (58:03):
When we come back, won't wait for the get down.

Speaker 9 (58:07):
We'll have part two of Steve's response to the Strawberry
Letter coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour,
subject I'm tired of sneaking around with her. We'll get
back into it right after this. You're listening Steve Hardy
Morning Show. All right, come on, Steve, let's recap today's
Strawberry letter. We totally disagree on this one.

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Yeah, a little dude been in completely friends with this
girl since they was seven day twenty seven. Now turned thirteen,
she started developing into a woman. I tried to tell
this boy and this letter she wasn't a woman at thirteen.

Speaker 1 (58:38):
Y'all, sir.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
Got to seventeen, y'all had sex for the first time
for the both of y'all.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
You fell in love with her.

Speaker 2 (58:44):
About eighteen, y'all had sex all throughout college, secretly without
your parents.

Speaker 1 (58:49):
Though.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
I don't know how cool these damn parents he is.
Why they wouldn't be all right today? Babies linking up together.
I don't know what this damn they she should he is.
Y'all parents got it, but it's too big. In this letter,
y'all had sex for the first time. This was the
moment I've been waiting for.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Yes, yes, it is.

Speaker 5 (59:13):
So.

Speaker 2 (59:13):
We both had sex for the first time. I fell
in love with her by the time I was eighteen.
We had sex throughout college, and now we've grown. She
still likes to sneak around.

Speaker 5 (59:22):
With me.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Updated other girls. Here we go, but no other woman
compares to her. No thing compass to you.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
Oh man, that was the jam boy. See they got
songs about this. I just need to get to the course.

(59:56):
Boom boom, God money you've been gone. Oh yeah, but
another another take away.

Speaker 2 (01:00:14):
Here we go, Sha come back.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
Nothing compass to you? Nothing? Whoa baby, whoaby whobby man.
It's been so lonely without Thank you so much for
that day.

Speaker 2 (01:00:39):
You know, I just wanted to drop that in there,
because back in the day, we wrote songs about situations,
and this boy says nothing compass, nothing compassed to you.

Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
That boy met this man. I just wanted to drop
that in the middle of the letter.

Speaker 2 (01:01:02):
Anyway, I've asked her to be my girlfriend so many times,
but she's afraid of what her parents would think. She's
been dating a guy for two years, but we still
have sex often. She told me she ain't having sex
with him.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
I believed her too. Recently, when she told me he's
talking about.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
Marriage he would go. My heart started beating fast. I panicked.
I poured all my feelings to her, and I said
I wanted to be with her. I want to marry her.
She said we could never be together because although we
are not blood relatives, our families are linked together so
closely it's like we related. I yelled at her, I
don't make love to my relatives. Why won't she give

(01:01:42):
us a chance.

Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
I don't want to lose her for good? So what
should I do? And we got to go to wall?

Speaker 2 (01:01:47):
Baby, We got to fight, young homie, you twenty seven,
listen to somebody that had been to wall before. You
got to fight for this love of your life. You
can't let this punk ass dude when who is he?
And I said it right? You can't let this punker

Speaker 2 (01:02:14):
Around and now she didn't have this boyfriend for two years,
but she's still been sneaking around with the secret lover.

Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
She can't explain it because she in love with this boy.
She'll just love what he do. Side but the side
piece got her turn.

Speaker 2 (01:02:28):
Up though, See, because all through the relationships she still
got to get the side piece. It's because the side
piece is really the main course. He ain't a side dish.
He the folk piece. Now, see, Charlie, he ain't the
cold slaw. He the folk piece. This dude is the
cold slow but the cold slough been gone public. So
now she's trying to turn cold slough and mashed potatoes

Morning show?

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):

Speaker 6 (01:04:16):
I disagree.

Speaker 1 (01:04:19):
There, appointed do too.

Speaker 6 (01:04:21):
I'm tired of sneaking around with her.

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
Well, see, Shirley, this is the love of his life
and it's time for her to understand what they really have. See,
she don't even know what's the love of her life
because they're so busy trying to keep it a secret.
And then Mamma, then well when you gonna get somebody? Now,
she'd have showed up this boyfriend for two years. Now,
how you're gonna come back and tell her it's always

(01:04:45):

got herself in the spider web. Well, since we're in
the spider web, that's gonna get all tangled up, because
now you got to start slinging mud. It's mud slinging
time now, homie. You got to start comparing yourself to him?

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Who is he and what is he to you?

Speaker 6 (01:05:03):
You understand here what he could get enough? All these
women out here, that's the.

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
One he won't. No, No, the one he won't is
the love of his life. Shirley. Yeah, you don't always give,
but you can fight for it though. Compare yourself to her.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
He can't love you like I do. He can't treat
you the way I can treat you. He can't won't
you the way I won't you.

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
Ass moment, juice, brain, No damn night.

Speaker 2 (01:05:37):
You don't bring no nineties world in the meat judy
bringing no damn jagget.

Speaker 1 (01:05:42):
Edge, No damn jagget as.

Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
He can't love you like I love you?

Speaker 5 (01:05:47):
What that is?

Speaker 2 (01:05:50):
He can't protect you like I'll protect you. I have
loved you since the moment I saw you. You have
been the love of my life, since the moment we
touched to one another.

Speaker 1 (01:06:05):
I can't live without you. I don't breathe without you.

Speaker 2 (01:06:09):
I want you more than I won't ad I love
you more than I love myself. That ain't a lot
of women can walk away from this sun, I'm telling you.
But now what you're gonna have to do is you're
gonna have to take your love for her public. Oh lord,
public affirmation is about time to come. If she don't,

(01:06:33):
then we go for the break. I'll go public with
my love for her. I'll go online and say I'm sorry,
and I just tell her in front of the world
that it may end it, but this is your shot.
But do not let the love of your life get
away just because she's dating this punk ass boy.

Speaker 9 (01:06:55):
All right, See that ends, I hope Part three of
Today's Strubberry.

Speaker 6 (01:07:00):
Okay, you're listening.

Speaker 10 (01:07:03):
Morning show.

Speaker 9 (01:07:07):
Steve's voicemail, and if you'd like to leave a message
for Steve, call him eight seven seven twenty nine Steve.
That's eight seven seven twenty nine, Steve. Well, you might
just hear your call on the air.

Speaker 1 (01:07:19):
Here we go.

Speaker 6 (01:07:19):
Howard from Atlanta, Steve Tay Steve.

Speaker 4 (01:07:22):
I'm Howard from Atlanta.

Speaker 6 (01:07:24):
I'm a white guy that loves your.

Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
Show and I like black girls.

Speaker 5 (01:07:28):
What advice will you do you have for me in
dating black girls? Because I keep striking out because I'm
too white? Sakes, Steve's love you man.

Speaker 1 (01:07:36):
Well, I got two things for you.

Speaker 2 (01:07:39):
When you say too white, I've never been that before,
so I really don't have any advice for your own
being too white. I've been accused of being too black before. Sah, yeah, yeah, well,
never been in the too white zone.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
Soul opposite.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
You know, be proud of whoever you are, whatever you're doing,
be pride, take pride in yourself. All tanning is a
suggestion I might try, unless your whiteness is you're referring to.

Speaker 1 (01:08:08):
Your soul content and your actions.

Speaker 2 (01:08:12):
Like for example, if you try to date a girl
and go over their house and you bring some a dish,
you can't take punkin towel over there.

Speaker 1 (01:08:22):
That's too white. You know, you got to know that
that's just too white.

Speaker 2 (01:08:29):
You can't bring the dressing to Thanksgiving and it's in
a box called stovetop.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
That's we just that's too white.

Speaker 2 (01:08:39):
It's just some things you can't do just because it's
a missile toe hanging. You can't kiss everybody under the mistletoe.
That's grandmama. You don't grandmama.

Speaker 1 (01:08:49):
Don't WoT that's too white.

Speaker 5 (01:08:54):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
The other advice if you do land a sister, buttle up,
hold on tight, come on you in for the ride
of your life. And this is not a sexual connotation.
I'm talking about all the rest of them. You are
going to be questioned about things, and I think you're

(01:09:21):
going trying to date some of the greatest forensic scientists
ever created. Yes, and they love to have a good time.
Let me give you the upside to dating sisters. I
don't think you can find nobody more beautiful. I don't
think they come any sexier. I don't think you can

(01:09:44):
walk any better. Come on, I don't think man, that
when they love you, you could get loved anymore. So
that right there is what's special about them. And that's
not to say that's not the case with anybody else.
Said you will get it in a way that you
may have never had it before, not saying that other

(01:10:05):
people not capable of that. But I'm commending my sisters
because I know what they do. That's all I never had.
But you know, I know they talk about when you
become well off and all this, they always.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
Go somewhere else. I've been.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
I've been at that crib the whole time. I don't
know nothing else. I appreciate them. I love I love
when the sheets go back.

Speaker 3 (01:10:28):

Morning show.

Speaker 9 (01:16:56):
All right, here we are, guys, our last break of
the day.

Speaker 6 (01:17:00):
On this Monday. It's been a good day.

Speaker 2 (01:17:02):
Yeah, yes, really really really Yeah. Kind of went by
kind of quick though it didn't. Yeah, I wasn't as
snappy today as I wanted to be.

Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
I don't know what that. I just wasn't as snappy
as I wanted to be. Better, get snappy because I'm
not to take my but to work, so again, shit
off one job and go to another one.

Speaker 2 (01:17:26):
Yeah, at least we got commercial breaks on this job.
You standing in front of that camera. I ain't no
off so you know, uh, let me let me say
this in closing. You know, I want to keep encouraging
people to keep to keep making an effort to make
your dreams come true. Look, I know that life can

(01:17:48):
be tough, at times, And I know there are times
when life seems like it's completely unfair. But life ain't
really fair. But life ain't really fair for anybody. And
what I mean by that's not fair, the unexpected always happens.
I mean, you know, as prepared as you may be,
you can be setting your plan for your day to

(01:18:08):
go one way or another way, and then something completely
happens out of the blue, and it seems unfair. Well,
I just want to remind you that that happens to everybody.
That's not just happening to you. Life happens to everybody,
And these sudden surprises they seem so unfair, but that's life.

(01:18:29):
The counter that you have for the unexpected is if
you are a believer, if you can work yourself up
to become a person of faith, if you can form
a relationship with your creator. The thing that will help
you get through all of that is the realization that
even though the unthinkable has happened, even though this unforeseen

(01:18:52):
circumstance has popped up, this unexplainable moment, just the fact
of knowing that God is with me no matter what happens.

Speaker 1 (01:19:05):
He is a very present help for me in the good.

Speaker 2 (01:19:09):
Times and the bad times, when it's sunny, when it's raining,
when it's thunderstorming, when the waves is real high, when
your ship gets turned over, it can get righted again.
You know, I want you to understand. Stop wanting everything
to be smooth for yourself. That's not realistic, y'all. That's

(01:19:34):
not what life is.

Speaker 1 (01:19:35):
If life was.

Speaker 2 (01:19:36):
Smooth for us all the time, we would have no
level of appreciation. We would have no need for faith,
We would have no relationship with God. I promise you
we wouldn't. If everything was level and smooth, there would
be no flow to life. You wouldn't even have really

(01:19:59):
mo if it stayed smooth all the time, you would
have no appreciation for sunny days because if the sun
shine every day, because we are human, all of us,
we would just get accustomed to it and we would
just go about thinking, oh, well, this is how it's
supposed to go.

Speaker 1 (01:20:20):
But God treats the weather just like life.

Speaker 2 (01:20:25):
It has its sunny days, it has its partly cloudy days,
it has its days when it's thunderstorming. It has its
days where it's windy outside. It has days where it's
just great. Then it has some days where it's just
perfectly beautiful weather. And then, just like life, the weather,

(01:20:46):
it has seasons to it. You have a season whereas
it just seems like for a period of time you're
just out here tall and working, and then it seems
like there's a period of time where it might seem
like all your crops is dead and it ain't nothing
coming out the ground. And then you'll have seasons in
your life where you're just harvesting the fruit and the

(01:21:09):
manner and the crops are coming all in. That's life,
and God gives us these examples of life, all through
nature and everything. When the leaves turn brown and orange,
how beautiful they can be. But if some people, if
you don't see the beauty of the orange and the
scarlets and the red and the oranges of the leaves,
then you miss the beauty of fall. If you just

(01:21:30):
sitting there going, oh, whoa lord, it's finna be winter now,
you spend the whole beautiful fall worried about.

Speaker 1 (01:21:36):
When winter come.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
When winter come, and that beautiful snow is coming out
the sky and you're able to go snowboarding and skiing
and sliding and making snow cream and making ice ice
milk and making snow men and making angels and stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:21:51):
You missed the beauty of winter. Fix your mind, y'all.
This is life.

Speaker 2 (01:21:57):
Life has all these ebbing flows, and we all wake
and alive to partake of all these heaven flows.

Speaker 1 (01:22:03):
And it's a beautiful thing to be able to partake
of life with all this ups and downs, sunny days,
rainy days. What you need rain for flowers to go.
It's like God's word. It's just like the rain.

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
God does not send rain and snow to earth without
it returning something.

Speaker 1 (01:22:22):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
When the rain falls from the sky, it returns flowers.
When the rain falls from the sky, it returns greenery
in trees, it returns It supplies nourishment for seeds that
when rain going. When God gives his word, God don't

(01:22:43):
give you his word without a return. Open your mind
to God's word, man, It has a return value to it, y'all.
Get into a Get into your faith and understand what
God is saying to you. Don't let nobody fool you
at all this Illuminati conversation and all this foolishness right here.
God is real, man, God is very very real. He's

(01:23:06):
the truth of the matter. Sit up here and let
these people talk you into some okie dope that ain't real.
God is real, man. That Bible been around system, you
don't even know what it wasn't around. Every word in
it checking because it's truth. Get into your faith, y'all.
God loves you, man, It would be the best thing
for you. Talk to God.

Speaker 1 (01:23:26):
He loved you. You don't have faith. Ask God for all.
