Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know y'all have a sun giving them like the million bucks things in the stuffings me true good listening to the other for I don't join jo. Do you turn you go? You gotta turn to turn them out? Turn You haven't got to turn them out to turn the water. The water got me? Come come on your tha uh huh, I show will good morning everybody, y'all listening to the voice, Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man oh man, oh man, God being good to me. Man, I can't explain it all really, Hey, you know I want I want to remind everybody or something that I need reminding of myself all the time. And I'm I'm dealing with a couple of things now and I had to remind myself, you know what I have to remember to constantly remind myself to stay in constant communication with God. Constant communication with God. You know sometimes you know, I have a tendency and maybe we do all the people. I don't know, but I know for me that when it's going okay, I slack up in sometimes having conversations with him because I'm not coming to him on the daily with something that's pressing or something, and I find myself slacking up in the communication. The danger I have learned in that is this, I think, you know, I mean we've all heard old people say, you know, you got to stay prayed up, you know, and you know prayed up means you know you got some store it up. You just got an abundance of them. Where you don't you're putting it in. Because what happens is is when you're not in constant communication with God, when you're not constantly praying, doing those good times, that allows for the enemy to slip in and do the little things that can be upsetting. And then the next thing you know it, you get several little things in a role. Now you got an issue you dealing with. You know, I have to remind myself when it's going like that, Man, have I really been praying though? Have I really been in constant communication with God? Because you know that that helps God against that little bitty stuff coming in. Sometimes it's big stuff, sometimes it's major stuff. But I've noticed, man, that when I get on a more of a smooth plane in life, I have a tendency to slack up in that department, and that ain't the time to slack up. I'm really learning that I have to stay in constant communication with God because it enables me to ward off those little things coming up that can get in the way. And so I just wanted to make you aware of that as I'm learning it myself, that staying prayed up is important that you try to stop prayers, you know, you try to you know, have some prayers in the bank, so to speak, and just constant communication with Him because it'll just safeguard you against a lot of stuff back doing you. You know, I just wanted to make sure you understood that because on your journey, it's gonna be many obstacles. I've said this a hundred times on the show The Road to succes Sessus always under construction. I say that all the time, and it's to let you understand that it's not going to be easy, but we can make it more difficult than it has to be. You know, when you go out strike out on the journey. You know, Uh, let's say I got in my car. Let's say I'm in New York and I get in my car and I say I'm going to LA. I know, if I drive west and continue to drive west, eventually I should get to California, or I may wind up in Portland or Seattle or something like that. But if I drive west, I'm gonna eventually get to the West Coast. Now wouldn't it be smarter though? If I mapped out the route, which saved me a bunch of driving, I don't need and figuring that I don't have to calculate when you know the way to go. You know, if you know you want to cut cross on the twenty, or you want to cut cross on the seventy, or you want to cut cross on the ten, you know you got to devise a route. Now, if I want to go visit some people I know, then I know I got to I need to go down. You know, I might go through on how I'll come down on the eighty, then get on seventy one and take that all the way down to the Tin and then ride across. Or I might take it to the twenty cut through Texas and then and then let it link back up on the Tin. I know a lot of different ways, but guess what the best way is to map it out. You can go anywhere, but if you go with a map, it's more precise. You save yourself a lot of time. And that's what prayer has taught me that when I wouldentify, continuously pray that I stay in I stay in a prepared mode, I have more idea of where I'm going, I'm more secure with my route. If you just take off driving heading west, yeah, you'll eventually get to the west coast if you out east. But guess what though, had you mapped it out, you can see when you're veering off, you may stop, come out and not be paying attention. Next thing you know, you're on a route and you go on another where you're going north when you could easily still be going west. You've got to constantly be aware of that. And I'm just pointing that out to you because I know that on your journey a lot of times you get sidetracked. And part of the ways we get sidetracked is we lose out on that very the very beneficial resource of prayer. We lose out we die. Connection with God get strained. The thicker you can keep the cord connected to God. If you thin out your communication with God, and instead of having a big, thick cable, now you're dealing with a little thread. You know, a cable is stronger than thread, and so it just decreases your opportunity. And so you know, I wanted to just make you aware of that, and you know, to ever be encouraging to say to everybody out there and just keep your head up. It is going to be dark days for you. There are going to be situations where it's going to be daunting and hard to face. But man on, man on man, everybody has to face these challenges. Everybody get dark sometimes. You know, look, if you didn't lose, if you didn't lose, you wouldn't even appreciate winning because if it all went your way all the time. Do you know how complacent and content and how easy life would be if it just went your way all the time. So when it kept going your way, you wouldn't even appreciate it because guess what, it's been going this way the whole time. So what life does is is has its checks and balances. These hard times are coming, and you need the hard times to appreciate the good times. You need the clouds and you need the rain to appreciate the sun and the flowers. It's just when it comes to prayer, though, just stay prayed up, stay constant with it, because the challenges of life are coming, whether you prayed up or not, they're coming. Understand that you could pray every day all day. When you get through praying every day all day, something gonna happen to you. That's gonna be challenging. Now. I would rather have been in communication with God on a regular than wait till every time something pop off to have to go to and reintroduce myself. Okay, it was over at little around the board with it today, but that's how it came to me, So that is I ain't mad at it. Y'all have great day. We're gonna have a good one day. Let's go all right, here we go, ladies and gentlemen. It's the morning Show. It's the Steve Harvey Morning Show. We are all here accounting for in present. I would like to say good morning. If you're not having a good morning, didn't get to having a good morning, because that could be no morning at all. How about that. That's the option, good morning or no morning at all. I'm gonna go with you. Good morning. However, it's going. It's better than no morning at all. Let the church say, man a man man again. All right, So what's happening crew, how y'all feeling to day?

She's fifteen and she's usually got a very bad attitude. I was very embarrassed by her lack of manners for our waitress, and her father didn't say a word. I asked her to please be respectful of others, and she looked at me and told me to watch my mouth. Her father laughed at first and then told her to watch her mouth. This was all he said. I left and I stopped talking to him. He's saying, I overreacted, did I? No, you didn't. No, you didn't. You didn't overreact. He underreacted. And it's because of his the way he's dealing with stuff.

He loves to walk around the house naked, or he'll be in his boxers if company comes over. In the beginning, he used to shave and wear clothes around me. It's one thing to see his belly in the bedroom, but I don't want to have breakfast with it or have it staring at me from the couch. I don't feel comfortable sitting on his furniture anymore because it grosses me out to think his bare butt was on it. How can I get him to change his bare naked way, put some clothes on and walk around like you diesel coming over here? Look, ladies, please take note of your power. You can get him to change this. All you have to do is make that a requirement. If you want me to keep coming over here, you gotta quit walking around here neck, show some respect, and then company over you just in your damn draw.

Y'all be doing it big mama, and your dad and your uncle, you everybody, all right, nephew, thank you. Coming up next Entertainment and National news right after this. You're listening. According to CNN, roughly forty eight hours after the death of General Colin Powell, Trump proved again that he truly doesn't have any empathy, grace, or common decency, any common decency. Here is Trump's disrespectful, classless statement. He said, wonderful to see Colin Powell, who made big mistakes on Iraq and famously so called weapons of mass destruction, be treated in death so beautifully by the fake news media. Hope that happens to me someday. Oh we will. How about tamaraw He was a classic rhino, if even that, always being the first to attack other Republicans. He made plenty of mistakes, but anyway, may he rest in peace. That was his complete statement. Oh that's how I mean, that's the bottom. See, yeah, I mean, I'm not surprised at all. Shocking part of this is that over seventy meal your Americans want this as their president. Will accept this as their leader, and ain't got no problem with him being how he is. Over seventy million voters voted for this, voted for the comment about the women on the bus with Billy Bush that time. They ain't got no problem with banning Muslim travel, ain't got no problem with the war, and the problem with denying the doctor, and just over and over constant statements of glaring racism. Ain't got no problem with nothing he does. Man, Now, this is the sickness that we have. Now, seventy eight million people voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. That's a total of one hundred and forty eight million people who voted. Round about that number, there's only three hundred and fifty four million Americans on earth, so which means half a little less than half were able to vote. Because some people are not of voting age, but they're still counted in the three hundred and fifty four million. And then you got some people who are old and don't voting. You got some people who are of voting age and they ignorant ask don't vote. So when you look at that number, that's an alarming number of people. And for him, to say something like this, having been president and talking about being the twenty twenty four candidate, and this is this is a statement. That's a statement you and in history. He said it out loud, and you know, some kind of bringing up another subject. All these people who are disregarding all of these are subpoenas to come in and talk about the January sixth upros How to how can you do that? If you get a subpoena and you don't come to court, they come and get you and bring you the court. How are these people allowed to just constantly ignore these subpoenas. Some of them are invoking privilege, certain you know, privilege. He's not the president anymore. And that's what they're saying too, because now they're saying that he's invoking privileges. He said, But that's just what all the lawyers are saying. That's a waste of time because you're no longer right. All right, well, what a horrible thing to say. All right, Steve, let's move on. It is time now for headlines, ladies and gentlemen, miss saying trip, thank you very much, everybody. Here we go in Washington, the House Select Committee investigating the January sixth Capitol Hill Insurrection, since you guys are just talking about that. They voted unanimously to whole former White House Advisor Scott Bannon in contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate with the subpoena and provide testimony and documents demanded by the legislators, and both Committee Chair Benny Thompson and Republican Vice Chair Liz Cheney say, everybody knows what's going on here. We believe mister Bannon as information relevant to our prode and we'll use the twos at our disposal to get that informations. Almost every one of my colleagues knows in your hearts that what happened on January sixth was profoundly wrong. Nevertheless, most Republicans continue to follow Donald Trump's lead and oppose the committee's prode. The admitted Parkland, Florida High school killer Nicholas Cruz went before a judge, Elizabeth Cherer yesterday. The judge then laid out his options after he took plea took a plea deal basically instead of going to court. That's Nicholas Cruse. Prosecutors say that crews shot and kill seventeen students and staff members at Marjorie Stoneman High School on Valentine's Day in twenty eighteen. And this is the judge. The best case scenario for you is a term of the rest of your life in Florida State Prison. Do you understand and do you understand the maximum penalty is death? Yes? Man. Well, now, the twenty three year old Crews had been expelled from that school a year earlier before the massacre. But authorities say this guy had a history of violent behavior dating back to preschool. His plea comes with no promise of leniency. So the state's going to reportedly pursue the death penalty against Nicholas Crews during the sentencing phase of this case. Okay, get this football fans, check this out. The NFL is going to propose changes, they say, to their billion dollar concussion settlement process in the wake of the human cry over a racist practice that treated black players who were retired differently than white ones. Officials that the NFL say they're ready to change their cog native test to determine whether former players are eligible for settlements due to head trauma suffered while playing. Apparently, the league's been using a test called race norming, which assumed that black players started out with lower cognitive function. Get that from, which then made it more difficult for retired black players to show they'd suffered from mental damage as a result of their time in the league. A federal judge is going to review the newly developed procedure. Can you get that? Okay? Today's finally be grateful to be malf Gotta be thankful every day you wake up on this side of gazers. Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to the stow All right, So we've been hearing about doctor Dre's divorce for you know, several months now, quite a while. It's been messy. We do know that extremely contentious. Well, something happened Monday that punctuates that bitterness. A process server for his ex wife attempted to serve him with legal documents at the cemetery where he buried his grandmother. Now this is according to TMZ. There's a dispute over where exactly Drey was confronted by the process server. Sources connected to TMZ say a process server came up to him at the burial site as Drey was standing by his grandma's casket and tried serving him. What that's horrible. Sources connected to his ex wife say um that Drey was served in the cemetery's parking lot after the burial. Cemetery. The point is, does it matter it was still at the beer I mean, forget the casket on that day, right at the time, at the burial exactly, don't have a Yeah, okay, okay, I promise you, if I'm grieving and you come up to me, I ain't. I ain't who you think? This ain't thing to be fairly few. I'm telling you right now, man, if I'm grieving, you can't come to me. You can't serve me somebody I love at the funeral. You can't serve me at the parking lot, not next to the casket. Surely that's not what the ex wife wanted to be served on that day. Well, well they got to get the information. They how do they know about the funeral? Yeah? A lot where you get that from? That's pretty low, man, That's pretty yeah, it really is. That is that's bad? Yeah, I mean, and next to the casket or on the parking lot. I just don't see what difference it makes. But you can't it goes back to the junior that day. Yeah, they're gonna need another casket. That's that's what. But I'm gonna tell you something right now, the SERVI the serve got a real problem with me. Yeah, the casket may be for him and you a warrant or notice up to the front. They can't. And my cousins that had all got records. You're not man, You're gonna beat it. You're gonna be in the next plot. Yeah. Well, okay, why were these papers more so important that they had to be served on that day at the funeral? You asked, That makes no sense. Well, they involved They involved payment of Nicole's attorneys fees. Now do you know that could have waited her? That could have waited but next day, Yeah, that could come on. So now do you just refuse to make the payment on time? Now, well, I'm fitting to play with him now yeah, yeah, because there was a dispute or how much he was supposed to pay, Well, I may have, I may have to pay you, but we fit it all. See, here's a deal. You can't go to jail for not paying a bill. Now you can go to jail for disobeying a court order. I'm pretty sure you can't. But you can't go to jail. The only bill you can go to jail for for not paying this the ass. Your ass is gone. Yeah right, We'll be back with more of who you want to play with coming up at thirty four minutes after the hour. Right after this, you're listening to Show Wow, Charles Barkley is speaking out. He had a lot to say and this to say about Kyrie irving his vaccination issue. Take a listen to Chuck. First of all, you don't get the vaccine for yourself. You get it for other people. I'm not saying, hold on, I want you said your piece. I'm saying I don't say I got vaccinated. I can't wait to get the booster. I don't. You don't get vaccinated just for yourself, like Adam said, you get vaccinated for your family first, you get vaccinated for your teammates second. Things like that. That's what bothered me about this whole thing. I think everybody should get vaccinated. And let me tell some I really am proud of the Nest for putting their foot down, for saying no, we're not gonna deal with this half on half on half all the only thing that bug mean, he's still gonna make seventeen million dollars sitting at home. I wish they could find a way if he wants to go on this thing. But you know, if people say he's like Ali, first of all, I don't ever compare anybody to the Ali. I went three years without boxing, mee the high traine athlete in the world. This guy gonna make seven seventeen million dollars for sitting at home. But to every parison out there, you don't get vaccinated just for yourself. I'm talking to It's what I wanted because he was on the panel with Shack and Ernie Kenny. Yeah, I didn't know he was still making seventeen million at the High I didn't know that. Wow, that's not the point. He made the point. You get vaccinated, foot for your family, you get vaccinated, then for your work mate, the people you work with. Exactly that. Kyrie and Kanye have gotten on my narratives week. K I think I can't take no more man. Yeah, Tommy, I'm not going all that. It's it's they're on your nerves. Say your name, got to remember where the hell you stay? All that it's just too much. Man. Now he's walking around with a rubber mask on his face. Wold that it's hard. I already don't like these masks we got to wear. I'm not putting another one on. Okay, and that one looks so scary too. But do you guys agree with Yeah? Yeah, I need see everybody. I need more research. I need this. I need proof that they don't work. I don't have that right. And I've seen it firsthand from people very very close to me that if they had not been vascinated, what could have happened. I just talked to my Nis about it, and he was thanking God he had been vaccinated. He had to quarantine anyway, because he's a doctor, right, but he had no symptoms. It was he didn't have to go to the hospital. I've had somebody close to me spent over two weeks in the hospital and every day said, man, I swear to God, I wish I got the vaccine. Yah, every day and seriously was talking about he thought he's gonna check up out of here. I don't know what y'all want. I'm telling you the vaccines. I got the vaccine, so all y'allah. And like we said yesterday, Steve, don't try to throw General Colin Powell in the mix because he was fully vaccinated and got COVID and passed away. General Powell was dealing with cancer, and don't forget he was eighty four years old as well, you know, with Parkinson as well. Yeah, sompromise, handsome is nothing but a battle against your immune system. So y'all try to use that one example. It's why you shouldn't. I this is all the wrong one. Okay, come on, I'm taking the vaccination and I'm using two VS. If you don't get the vaccination, you can't get the ventilator. Right here, we're not gonna help you breathe. You don't believe the science. You don't believe what you need to scientific ventilator. That Yeah, you know, I've lost four friends, man, four good dudes to COVID. That that that that that impacted me because I was I was scared. These dudes. Was not no bad dudes. These were dudes that I looked up to and they gone, yeah, I'm getting vaccinated. It really it touched my life if I'm getting vaccinated. Yeah, yeah, all right, guys, thank you coming up next. It is enough here with today's prank phone call. Right after this you're listening show coming up at the top of the hour, right about four minutes after. It's my strawberry letter for today. The subject I'm getting played by an old man. We'll get into that in just a bit, but right now the nephew is here with today's prying phone call. What you got for us, naff, Well, surely there's some heavy babies out there, you know, some heavy babies. Yeah, some babies pretty hefty, pretty hefty birth be inside. We're right, baby wheat, that's what Wait, yeah, baby wheat, what you played too much already from the title. Okay, it's a heavy baby. Let's go, capt dog take a listen. Hello, Hello, I'm trying to reach a trainer please, yeah, this is trainer. Know. My name is Earnest Earnest Murphy down here at the bus bard with the from the school district. Your son is Devin, am I right? Yeah? Okay, Now he's in the sixth grade, I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, everything is flying now. I think he's on He rides bus ninety, Bus ninety three. Does he ride PUS ninety three? Uh yeah, yeah he does. Okay, So now the school board has implemented a new rule, and um, we're having to call a lot of parents and let him know about the new rule for us. As far as the buses are concerned. Now, from my understanding, each child that gets on the bus has to weigh less than one hundred and twenty five pounds. That's what the new rule that is implemented by the board. Say that again, each child that gets on the bus has to weigh less than one hundred and twenty five parents, I don't understand. I don't understand. So what's okay? So what does what does that mean? So starting on Monday, Starting on Monday, what they're gonna do, If they're gonna the bus driver will have a scale and he will wait the kids so they get on on the bus. I understand. Man, the doctor, like I say, I'm calling, I'm calling every patent that they say, you're gonna you're gonna waive my child before he gets on the bus. That's that's what the new rule. That's what the new rule. Then if he's over one twenty five, then he he'll either have to walk, you have to take him the school. But I have a job, Okay, I have a job. I thought gonna take my kids in school, but I don't. That's what the bus explores. That's what my tax dollars paid for us. Right, But the reasoning, the rationale behind this, Okay, let me tell you what's going on. From what they're saying, the weight of these children is hearing down these transmissions on this bus, on these buses, transmission, the transmission cannot take all of that. So they are limiting the weight of each child. So now how much does that discrimination? I think that's discrimination, but it over Is he over one hundred and twenty five pounds? He okay? He is? Okay? And you you're probably gonna have to take your son to school or you gonna have to walk. He probably needed to walk to school if he already or hundred twenty five pounds? What as are you talking about? All I'm saying. All I'm saying is if your son is overweight one hundred twenty five, you know, maybe the exercise are doing good. When like I said that, the school is that gonna allow him on the pus. But sure I will accept this. Who do I need to call? Is there a manager? Is in a city's council member? I mean, this is seriously, the most ub discriminatory practice I've ever heard of. It doesn't even make sense. You're talking about a child, I understand, but we're talking about a child a way more than a grown person. You're so I need to get what is your name, sir? Tell me your name again. My name is Ernest. I'm down here at the bus ball. I would like to speak with the supervisor, like, now, what do you You do not get to speak to my about my child that way? You get to speak to any kid that way. You should not be working at a school if that is your attitude. No, I don't work at the school. I work at the bus ball. I'm down here at the bus ball and they gave me you they right, because you're saying he's over behind in twenty five pack. I am an absolute shock. This is okay? So do you have a fantic chat? I mean, do you have scuba? I'm sorry, do you have a big chatter? Listen? What my child looks like, how much he weighed? It is none of your business. I'm going to call the school. They can't be working with your company. If this is the way that you treat people and you talk about children, it doesn't matter with here. I guess what they're doing is this is the way of them approaching obesity. You know, whoever, whoever over one hundred, they might walk it all your start. Listen, listen. That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Okay, I have to work. My son is getting on that bus, and I'm going to call the schoolboard and should not be working with you. We're another bust company. I don't know, but I'm calling the city. I will call the members they need to call, but you need to give me a supervisor's name right now, right now? Do you think you need to start cooking different folks? So, Devin, don't have you know, maybe maybe it's thought us at home and what you're feeding everybody, you know, I am calling the supervisor. I'm calling this the city. I'm calling the school. I'm going to get you so fired, like I can't even believe that you're allowed to make this call like our other parents. Okay, with this, I'm called when you own your way to work in the morning traina do you listen to the Steve Harvey Morning Show? Oh my god, yes I do.

We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter. All right, thank you, nephew. Subject I'm getting played by an old man. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a twenty eight year old divorced one and I fell on hard times during the pandemic. I got laid off and then I got a bad case of COVID and had to move in with my father and stepmom. That's where I met my stepmom sixty nine year old brother, and he swept me off my feet. We started working out together and we ran a marathon together. He started out giving me money for my hair and nails, and then he gave me a car to drive. My dad asked him why he was being so generous, and he said that he can only drive one car at a time, so he didn't mind. My dad warned me to watch out for him. But I was already attracted to this man and was ready to sleep with him. I told this man I was attracted to him, and he said that he'd been waiting to hear that because he had been attracted to me from the jump. We had sex in his car that day. It all happened quickly, and I loved it. From that day on, he gave me money freely, and he started sneaking over to my dad's house to be intimate with me while my dad and step mom were at work. The more we had sex, the more I wanted to be with him. He said he would get me an apartment so we could stop having sex at my dad's house. Then he abruptly stopped calling and coming to see me, and he texted me and asked for his carback. I called him over a million times and he wouldn't answer. He texted again to tell me that he was with someone new and he's moving in with him. Wait what and he's moving her in with him. He blocked my phone number. After that, I was heartbroken and mad. He promised to get me an apartment, and he played me should I give him an ultimatum to get the apartment, or I'll tell my dad how he tricked me into falling for him. How do I handle this? This was not an average sixty nine year old man. Let's just say that. Okay, you guys working out together. He ran a marathon with him, and he gives you money too, and all of this. He was a Zaddi for real. Everybody calls day for real. Okay, But you know, having said all that, you still need to let him go, get him out of your system, and move on. I'm guessing here, But because he stopped seeing you so abruptly, I think your father already found out what was going on between you two, and he probably threatened the man's life or something. So you can't use the threat to tell your dad on him to get the apartment. He promised, that's over. It's over. Okay. Yeah, he's followed for not telling you why. But as we've learned on this very show, the Steve Harvey Morning Show, men do not do closure. He's just moved on. There was a reason your dad didn't want you to date him in the first place, and his warning to you fell on deaf ears, so he probably went straight to the source. The older man who you say, swept you off your feet, his brother in law, his wife's brother. Whatever went down at that meeting. This old guy decided it wasn't worth it to fight for you, guys. It's a relationship. He didn't want to have to fight your dad or any one, so he hurried up and got with someone else. And that's just how I see it. I think you should forget him. You don't really miss him anyway. You just missed the money and the perks, the car and all that, and you miss the apartment he promised you. So just move on, Steve, Well, well, well I got played buy an old man. Is this subject all right? Now? It's twenty nine year old divorce woman. Listen to me, careful. Fell on hard times during the pandemic, got laid off and then got a bad case of COVID. Had to move in with my father and the stepmom. That's why I met my stepmom sixty nine year old brother, and he swept me off my feet. Let me give you the facts back to you. You fell on hard times and you got COVID. You was already off your feet. Easy to sweep somebody off their feet, that's all already off their feet. So see, if you didn't get played, you misunderstood what was happening to you. You did not get swept off your feet. You was all already on the ground. All right, that's the main part. We started working out together and we ran a marathon together. Wait, hold on, that's what I said. Hold on what you you come out of COVID, started working out and run a marathon together. I'm assuming you don't know what a marathon is. You must be talking about a five k marathon or something like that. I know. Gooding to hell. Well your ass ain't come out of COVID and ran twenty six point two damn miles. I promise you this ain't a real marathon. She has a misunderstanding, I promise. Girl stopped and from my he started giving me money for hand nails, and then he gave me a car to dry. I don't know why women to get impressed when a man pay for your hand nail. I don't know why that's impressive to some women. It's just nailed, right, that's all it is, you know, and you got your hand done. How often that happened? So I'm y'all get impressed by a lot of little stuff now, your dad asked the man, why was he being so generous? He said, he can only drive one car. Your dad warned you to watch out for him, but I was already attracted and I was ready to sleep with him. I'm gonna stop right there. When I come back, I'm gonna show you what happened right to that. All right, hang on, hang on, We'll have part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour. Today's Strawberry letter subject I'm getting played by an old man. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject I'm getting played by an old man. All right, here's recap I'm getting played by old man. Twenty eight year old divorce woman fellow hard times doing the pandemic, lost her job and got COVID. Had to move in with her daddy and her step mom. She met the step daddy's sixty nine year old brother step spector step mom's sixty nine year old brother. She was attracted to him, and he came in and swept her off her feet. He book. That's already down is a lot easier to sweep off their feet. All you got to do is scoop him up. You was on the ground, you ain't working, and you got COVID. Now you haven't met this sixty nine year old man. Y'all start working out together and ran the marathon. What you know how long it take to get in shape to run a damn marathon? Little girl, you don't know what a marathon is, and you don't know what getting swept off your feet is. You just wrong on so many levels. He gave you money for your hand, your nail, gave you a car to drive. Then your dad, asking why he's being so generous, he said he can only drive one car to time. Your daddy know that. Your daddy warned me to watch out for him. But I was already attracted to this man that was ready to sleep with him. I told this man I was attracted to him, and he said he'd been waiting to hit that because he'd been attracted to me from the jump. Next line, we had sex in his car that day. Pump your brain. That's an important thing, because right now, if you're sixty nine having sex in the car, I'm impressed. Oh, you're not impressed with the marathon, but you're impressed with the damn now sixty nine having sex in that car. I'm impressed this man right here. Damn that marathon. Skip all that buying your hand, nails, y'all hands sex that day in the car. It all happened quickly, and I loved it from that day own. He gave me money freely, and he started sneaking over to my dad's house to be intimate me with intimate with me while my dad and stepmom were at work. Now I'm not impressed. Oh, I'm back to being like not impressed. Now you sixty nine sneaking over your brother in law's house to have sex with his daughter. You went from the impressing me to unimpressing me. The more we had sex, the more I wanted to be with him. He said he would give me an apartment so we could stop having sex at my dad's house. An apartment for sex. Here we go again. I'm not impressed that. I don't know why y'all keep getting excited about your hand, your nails and apartment and listen to me. He gave you a car to drive. I'm gonna deal with that in a minute. Then all of a sudden, he abruptly stopped calling and coming to see me. He texts me and asked first car back. I called him a million times, he wouldn't answer. He texts me to tell me he was with somebody knew he's moving her in with him. He blocked my phone number. After that, I was heart broken in mad He promised to get me an apartment, and he laid me. Should I give him an ultimatum to get the apartment or I'll tell my dad how he tricked me into falling for him. How do I handle him? First of all, let's back all this up. Number one. Your father told you in the beginning to watch out for him. Your father told you your father can't tell him what to do. He's sixty nine. He probably older than your daddy. That one was impressive about y'all had sex in the car. It's harder unfold your old ass after you've been in a hard very hard to getting him present. You can't do like you wan't too. You're gonna get cramps. Your lad's gonna lock up. There's a whole lot going wrong again. Your daddy told you listen to me. He didn't play you. You played yourself. Here's another thing. When a man says he gonna let you drive a car, but he don't buy you a car, that never works out. I've never seen that workout for a lady before. If a man is gonna give you a car, didn't get your car, put it in your name, letting you drive it because the moment you ain't having sex no more. Guess what he wants. He want all his stuff back, all his stuff he gave you don't have sexual him. And see don't he asked for all his stuff back. Man, don't give you something for nothing. You got no commitment from this guy. Now. Also, let me throw this at you, your sister. You didn't notice how thrilled he must have been to have this twenty eight year old and he's sixty nine. What, junior, that's impressive. Yeah, you didn't think that was impressive on your part. So, lady, this is it. But let me listen to all you fellas just reading this letter. Don't take your sixty nine year old ass out there in the driveway and try to climb in that card hand sick. You don't gonna work out for you. That's the moral is it now, all right, boast your comments on today's Strawberry Letter and Steve Harvey FM on Instagram and Facebook. Check out the Strawberry Letter podcast one to Man coming up at forty six minutes after Sports Talk with Junior. Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, coming up at the top of the hour, it's Carla's Reality Update. But right now Junior is in the building with Sports Talk. What you got, Junior? You know, Shirley, last night I told y'all that the NBA season kicked off. Look, uh, well two nights ago. But this, this is it's impressive to me, is that that they players are not having this man, they're not. Everybody has to be a team right now. So Kyrie Irvy is not moving off his position. He still doesn't want to get vaccinated, but he still stands to make seventeen million? Is this? How does this work? I don't know how this work? How does this work? He still get seventeen me if he don't play a game. I wonder he's not worried about it. But it doesn't make sense. No, it don't make hurt himself playing football for free. I don't get it. I just understand, but you know, seventeen minutes. But then and then also now this, you know Ben Simmons, who plays for philadelph and seventy sixers, did not have any contact with the seventy sixers, none of the off season, showed up last Sunday for practice, then he got put out of practice by doctor Rivers, and then he was suspended for the first game. Now he didn't already lost one point faux mellion. Just for that, you'd already lost one point foul mellion, all right. Now, Joel n b pretty much tied to him because he said, I don't get paid to babysit other players. That's pretty much what Ben Simmons said. I'm not baby sitting here. I get paid, Yeah, Joel n bisa, I get paid to produce on the court wins. That's what I get paid due. I'm not here to get paid to babysit an NBA player, which is Ben Simmons who he's talking about. I feel with being said, because this is about a team, man. Everybody gotta have one mission and one goal. And if you you're not trying to be a part of it, I'm not looking out for you. So we clearly no dame friends off the court because your friend wouldn't do you like this. To me, some money is usually better than no money. What that means, just like I learned, all money ain't good money. I've taken some deals where I wasn't really happy with the amount I was getting paid for my services. But if I don't do this deal, I'll get no money and I'll provide no services. That's pure ignorance to me, because I remember that was a time when I was offered zero for nothing. I did I do so, I mean to me, I would do that. I'm just you know you're trying to I think that Kyrie's problem is he's trying to be a martyr, and you're not gonna be Colin Kaepernick because what you're standing up for doesn't make any damn sense to the average person listening to this to say the cause you standing on. All right, we gotta get out of here. Thank you, Junior, and thank you. Coming up at the top of the hour, Kyla's reality update right after this. You're listening to show, all right? Right Before we get to this reality update, Steve, you had one more thing to say about the vaccine well and Kyrie. Kyrie, here's what this brother does not understand. And I wish I could get to him and share some information with him. If you don't get back to playing basketball, your your stock in the NBA is gonna be diminished because you I want you to know something. Kyrie missed forty eight percent of the games last year in Brooklyn. That's damn near have He did not play forty eight percent at the time. Some of it was due to injury, a lot of it was caused he didn't feel like, you know, he got mental things he dealing it with has nothing to play with mental issues are real. But whatever the case, now that's league wide known. So Philadelphia can't have you, and I mean Brooklyn can't have you in this locker room with this mess. Joel Embiid just said what he said all these sed so I mean, I mean about Ben Simmons. But Brooklyn can't have you in that locker room. If you're not gonna play all the games, your value is diminishing. Even in a trade. You will never ever make this money again, and you'll never be able to recoup this money again. Example antony o'brown Man one Day Away, from holding off in Oakland and he would have got thirty million. Today. Antonio o'brown plays for a little bit over million dollars a year. Once they label you as trouble, you got to pay your way back into these leagues. Now, these are businessmen with dealing with and that's a problem. This young man is gonna face Kyrie Irvin can go nowhere to make this kind of money Nowhere. Anybody feeling hire? You know where home depot don't want these problems. I come to work, but I ain't feeling good at that. Companies, Ye, ladies and gentlemen, hold on to your hats. It's that time just for Carlin's reality update coming in hot. I just got one thing to say, one reality show to talk about it if I have time, real quick, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the reunion show. Did you see it? Shirley Okay, Doret needs to be fired the way she talked to garcel during that reunion special, and she raised her voice in her tone and Garcelle handled it like the black queen that she is. She sat there and handled it with class and dignity. But baby, when she raised her voice, let me finish Garcel. You know, I'd have been sitting on the other side of couch. Will you're talking to who you're talking to? Time the black Queen is not appropriate. A lot of people wanted to just handle Yeah, they wanted her to go in on it, but she she handled it her way, and you know that was her way. So there you go. So Doritt, I want her gone. I did not like her tone. I really didn't. And then Lisa Wrenna, she's full of it too, but she tried to play it off at the end and run over to the couch and hug her because I think she realized that her behavior was gonna catch up and she was gonna probably get a little backlash too. So that's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, all right. We got a little time we could talk about Potomac, Real Housewives of Potomac, all right. So they go they're still on this good vibes only trip. There are no good vibes happening on this trip. They go to a public restaurant. Things get ugly at the restaurant. Candice goes off again. She gets into it with Ashley, her husband Chris. I didn't like the way he grabbed her and tried to get her to calm down. Monica's like whatever, she needed to be checked, but she just kind of, you know, Candice just needs to stop reacting to everything, and I think that's where her husband was trying to tell her to just kind of chill out and just let some things happen.

All right, we'll be back to close out the show at forty nine minutes after the hour, and of course some closing remarks from the one and only Steve Harvey right after this. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, guys, here we are our last break of the day on this Thursday, this week flying by to me? October is flying? Yeah? No, the year true, that's because you enjoy your job. Oh. I had a job at Ford. My year was dragging. It's just you job. You're right, man, it's just what you And then when you're up here go by fast anyway. Oh, Tommy stopped. You see Tommy throw his arms up in the air like this. I just get tired of him coming here and take his arms. Yeah, yeah, was his hand. What's wrong on? Ain't wrong again? On the chair right now? That doctor. You gotta do great work when you hold your arms up and they still in the frame. Yeah, you dot do great words though, man, all right, ready for your closing, Yeah, here we go. Here's my closing remarks. I was reminded of something my father used to say to me all the time. He says, Son, if somebody always got to tell you what they do and who they are, it probably ain't true. What if somebody always got to tell you who they are and what they do, it's probably not true. And you know something is I've gotten older and I think back on things my father said to me. Man, that just rings so true. Man, And you got to be aware of people in your circle, people that's in your life that's always wanting credit. Especially man, if you find yourself in a position to pass it out and you overlook them, Oh my goodness, have you ever done that? Have you ever taken the time out to give God the glory? I mean, just really sit up and go. Man, I want to thank the Lord for just keeping me, for making me, for giving me this life, for allowing me to live the way I live, Heavenly Father, that it's been so much greater than who I was. And somebody heard you said and then wanted credit for that. That's amazing. Man. I've seen it all because I've been around a long time. So what I'm saying to everybody is, no, who in your life deserves real credit, and the one person that you can constantly count on in that is God. God really does deserve the real credit, and anybody trying to take it outside of that, it's really just asking for something they really don't even deserve, because when they get through trying to take credit in your life for what they want to take credit for. Who gave them the power, who gave them the position, who gave them the ability to wake up in the morning. That same God that wakes you up in the morning, you know, did have to wake them up. But they're so busy getting credit they don't give credit back to God even waking them up. They want to constantly come around in your circle and take credit for this and that. Listen, y'all be aware of that. Get stronger in your relationship with God. That don't mean you got to go to a certain church or a certain building. You can start developing a relationshipship with God with where you are right now. He does not require you to wait to Sunday, to put on a certain type of clothes and walk in a certain door. That's not a requirement. Now. It's going to church and temples and halls good for you. Yeah, of course, it's always good. The fellowship with like minded people that talks about that. That's nothing wrong with that. I'm not knocking that at all. But listen to me. Don't wait until then. Don't put off to Sunday what you can easily do today. You can have a conversation with God today. Well, Steve, I don't really know how to pray. You know how to talk, don't you. That's all it is. It's a word of an exchange. Here's a suggestive way to pray. Before you ask God for anything. How about if you just start with thanking him. Just start by thanking him for all the things he's done for you. That's not hard to come up with. That's how you really go. You know, it's really hard to ask people for something without having thank them for what they've done. Like I used the analogy all the time. If a person came by your house every morning and just ask you for a cup of sugar, and you don't really know what it's for, but you cool persons, you just give them a cup of sugar. They take the sugar, they just turn around and walk away. And they come back the next day and they ask you for another cup of sugar, and you don't really know what's going on, but you're trying to help this person because maybe they need and you pour them another cup of sugar. But as soon as you give them the sugar, they just turn around and walk away. How many days could this person come back to your house without you saying, hey, hold on, hold on, hold first of all, man, every time I'll give you this sugar, you're just taking and walking away. You don't have the manners to say thank you, or how many times would be fer a man, Hey, hey, hey, what you're doing with all this sugar? But the real problem is you don't like doing stuff for people, and they don't have no sense of gratitude for it. It just bothers you. Well, you're lucky. God ain't like that, because God lets you come all the time without ever saying thank you, and just honors your request anyway. He wakes you up every day and whilet you ever having to say thank you, he s I'm just doing for you because you don't know no better. But if you would change that one thing and just start thanking him for the small things, the more gratitude you show to God, the more things He will give you to have gratitude two four. That's a principle of success. Stop worring about what other people think and start wondering what God might think. Start by thanking him. That's how you open your prayer. And then right after you thank him, tell him what you want, ask, believe, and receive. That's how the prayer works. Y'all, have a great day. See y'all tomorrow, God willing and tomorrow. Here's my promise to you. If you wake me up, I'm gonna be ignorant tomorrow. I'm a boy, promise you why. For all Steve Every contests, no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
