Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time. Y'all don't know. Y'all have a suit on giving them like the million things and its not true. Good at listen to mother for st Please, I don't join joining me. You gotta use that turn you're going to do. You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn. You haven't got to turn them out to turn turn water to the water. Got me come come on your back? Uh huh, I sure well, come on and everybody you are listening to the voice, come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey, Oh yeah, man, got a radio show. Do you understand that I'm telling you God been big in my life. God, God is a gentleman, you know. I want to I want to point that out to you. God is an absolute gentleman. He will not come in unless he's invited. He don't just barge into your life. He gives us the power of choice. You know, if you say you got it, I don't need you. He let you have it. If you say I need you, come see about me. He right there. It's just a real simple thing. Man. So always say to people this if you've gotten yourself into something, and please know I have, I man, see that. That's why I'm so adamant about it, because I've gotten myself in some circumstances and positions in my life. But I've been I've had some low moments, man, I've had some moments where I did not know what to do. I didn't know what was next, I didn't know how to go about it. I didn't have no more ideas. I was stuck. I thought a couple of times, well might not make it past this one. But then if I don't make it past it, what's gonna happen? And then I held on to this little thing that my mother kept talking to me about. She said, sometimes when you ain't got nothing else in you, just hope, she said, just hope it'll be all right, you know. And what I've learned in my life is that hope. It's the beginning of faith. Hope. It's just is there a possibility out there for me? I sure hope something happened. See hope, hope it's okay, man, Because like I said, for me, the way I've lived my life, hope was the beginning of faith. It was just the idea. It's just the thought that something could change from me that something could be a little bit different from me, that maybe, man, just maybe for some reason, I could be saved, I could be rescued, Things could turn around, it could head any other direction. Maybe I could quit messing up. Maybe somebody will forgive me, Maybe somebody will just say all right. I don't know, but I can't count the times I've been in that position. But then once I hope a little bit, and then I remember also my mother, because she was a Sunday school teacher, she taught me the most valuable lesson I've ever learned in my life. Nothing has been greater in my life than my faith. She taught me to pray. Mamma used to say, when it get real, dog for your son, prayd changes things, she said, When you seem like you lost and you can't finding your way, stop and pray, she said, because prayd changes things. You know, when you get a point in your life when you've done all you can do and you can't do no more and you just don't know what to do next, she says, stop, so pray and combine that prayer with that hope that you got, she said, because that hope is the beginning of faith. She said, if you pray just hoping, she's saying that God come through for you. That will give you confidence that he can do it again. And then after a while you quit hoping, She's saying, you started believing. She saying, that's when you're on to something. Then if you can turn that hope into belief, that hope into faith, that's that's the ability to believe in something that you can't see. But the key though the faith is you're believing in something that you can't see see hoping a little bit different from me now, I'm pretty sure. Like I say, oftentimes to tell a lot of people who can explain this thing a lot better than I can to you hope. It's just kind of I don't know how to I don't know how to say it. But I'm just telling you hope. You're just hoping it worked out right. You just have a thought in your mind that you know, man, whoever you are, or whoever you are, whatever you are, to me, God, I show hope something change. Hope helps. Man. If you ain't strong enough to have faith, have hope, hope, and then if you pray with some hope and God answers your prayer. Then that hope gains a little confidence, and after a while that confidence becomes faith. Now they're just hoping, but I'm believing. I'm believing in something that I cannot see. Faith has been the key to my entire existence, even when I didn't have any It was faith, as I look back on it, that has gotten me here. And not just faith, but my faith. See, you will only get to where you're going in your life based on your faith. See. A lot of people get the word faith confused, like what's your faith? And then they started going down this whole list of all these different religions out here. But really an essence, man, when I talk to people about faith, I'm talking to you about your your belief. How much do you believe in the unseen? See? Faith is the core of all that is happening to me today. It is the faith that I have in my relationship with God that enables me to just oftentimes, if I stay on the right course and believe a certain way and act a certain way, his blessings just poor. They just come. And it comes in a lot of little ways too. I've started to notice, See, it ain't just a lot of people think blessings is money and now, man, that ain't it. It's coverage. It's every time my plane lands safe. It's every time they predict bad weather and I get up in the sky and don't be no bad weather. You know this, This is favor. These are blessings that get poured out to me. Somebody call me and offer me something, not money, but an opportunity. See, blessings come a lot of ways. But once you tie into God. Once you tie in and you start doing the best you can do, and you start asking for him to make you a better person, to help shape and mold you into the kind of man or person that he wants you to be. You be amazed what God can do with you. Man, if you just invite me in and allow him to be a part of your life. I mean, what you got to lose out there? Come on? Why why would you not change? Why would you not allow God to be a part of your life? God got some big plans for you. If he didn't, you wouldn't keep waking up. You're listening tow one, two, three four. Once that was a boy and girl. The boy said I love you, so the girl said, I never leave you. They grew older and left beach other because that's the way he loved goes, baby, that's the way he loved goals. That was my damn jail Jackie.

Listen coming up at thirty two minutes after the hour we got asked the CLO right after this. You're listening morning show time now for ask the CLO Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey in the building. This one is from May and Tulsa. They says, I'm in my mid fifties and I'm married to a man that loves to fish. Last weekend, he said he was out at the lake from sun up to sundown with my younger brother, but he didn't come home with any fish, nor did he look like he'd been fishing. I called my brother and he said that he went fishing, but he hadn't seen my husband. When he figured out I had caught my husband a lie, he said not to involve him in any type of drama. It seems like he's siding with my husband. To me, why wouldn't my brother do that. He's not siding with your brother. Why has he siding with your brother? He didn't lie to you. You asked him, did he go fishing? He told you yeah, but he said he ain't seen your husband. Then he told you, hey, don't involve me in none of your drama. See, your deal ain't with your brother. Your deal is with your husband. Your husband told you he went fishing with your brother. You called your brother. Your brother ain't know nothing about it. See, your dumbass husband should have called your brother and said, look, man, ill if if if if if, Glenda call you and ask you was out fishing with you. But here's the problem. You can't call a woman's brother and include her in your mess against You can't. You can't. See, y'all have to be boys to do that. You can't be family. You can't call me and tell me you fit the mess up my sister and then get me to go along with that. So your dumb ass husband use the one he should have used any one of his friends. Yes, but you're gonna if you listen, dumb man that did this. First of all, buy some fish on the way back, and then rub that fish all over your clothes face so you can smell like some damn fish. Man. What is you're doing? No, Rather you lie to me? Okay, thanks, that's the lesson, you teaching the husband how to lie your your mass. But see what I'm telling the woman is. First of all, the woman problem is not with her brother. He's not siding with her husband. He told you the truth. I went fishing, but I ain't seen your husband. But don't include me in your mess because he don't want to be in that. Keep doing now, if he call, if you call him out on that, and then your husband try to call him to go, damn man, why don't you cover for me? Now? He got to snap off on your husband because you I didn't mess around on my sister. You're trying to include me in a lot. That's all fellows. That is why you're the clo It's just messing for the royal reason, all right? Moving on, Jeremy and Saint Louis says, I'm a thirty seven year old man and I'm dating a thirty nine year old woman that lives with her parents. She's got a great job in two cards, and she's content living with them and sharing the bills with them. Her father washes her clothes, and her mother is her cook and her housekeeper. We've been together two years and she's pressing me to get married. She's never cooked for me, and I've never seen her perform any household duties. Would I'd be crazy to jump right into marriage without living with her first. No, do not live with her, but don't marry her until you have had or weeks of cooked meals in your presence, and you need to find out if she's gonna be Look, man, it's not a requirement that a woman is a housekeeper or cook. That's not a requirement. But it's important to me that you know how to cook because there's something that we have to do. We do have to eat. Now. If you can't cook, I need notice off top. I don't care if you can't clean, but what you can't do, but see, here's what you can't do. You can't not be clean now that we not fit it? Do that's a deal?

You know, we take our responsibility to educate you about voting very very seriously. Remember there is no off year when it comes to democra see So attention Virginia voters. This is in Norfolk, Richmond, and Portsmouth. Time to get out and vote. The big Virginia gubernatorial election is next month. Democrat Terry McAuliffe, sixty four, is seeking a second term as Virginia as Virginia's governor, and his challenger is Republican candidate Glenn Young Young Kin Young Ken. Okay, his name is Glenn Yunkin. He's fifty four, former private equity executive. He's seeking political office for the very first time. Now, the crazy thing is this is a closer than expected race. Virginia voters go to Elections dot Virginia dot gov for information on absentee voting. You can go there for voter registration information and for your polling place. Okay, we want you guys to get out and vote in Virginia. Also, voters in New Jersey, your governor's race is less than a month away as well. Jersey's Democratic governor Phil Murphy is going up against his Republican challenger Jack Ciarelli, and uh, we want you to get out and vote. Get out and vote. Yes, here's my question. So I understand this. The Democratic candidate for governor in Virginia is who his name is, Terry mccauliffe. Is this the Is this the one where the Black Caucus, but this particular black caucus is the Hampton Black Caucus, And this is not the elected legislative Black caucus. This is just another group Steve that has supported Doors, the Republican candidate. Yes, sir, So can I ask them why would they do that? Does anybody know why this offshoot of black caucus not the real one, this offshoot would support Well, why am I asking that? I know exactly why? My man, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Okay, I'm sorry. It's just like when you see all those blacks placed in the background at the Trump rally, Trump rally, when you see them full of holding them something blacks for Trump, you know on this hill. Listen to me. They placed those people behind the everybody behind the president. Ain't all enemies back there. Ain't they placed those people those people, get those people go there. Man, It's it's a sad state weed. It's very disappointing that what the Democrats are doing. You know, I'm not sure in particular about this race in Virginia, um, but the Democrats are divided right now. They really are divided. And well, it's a sad thing. It's it's the thing that the Republican Party has done masterfully. Yes, they get one running statement and that's what they ride with. Example, the election was stoken. They all know that's not true. Every Republican judge that they presented the evidence through through it out and said that's not evidence of widespread voter fraud. They all know. But those people, for their power, position and money, will hold the line. That's what they do the party over everything, every single thing they stick together on. And meanwhile, the Democrats, I mean, we could be heading into a recession if they don't get get this together. But all the Democrats have to do is get one line and whole. Yeah, we can't get one line in the hole. You know why. That's because we got the Democrats. That's trying to be more Democrats. Yeah, yeah, we're gonna go so far left. We don't make no damn sense. Ain't nobody fit to go well. But now, yeah, right, you got to compromise. There has to be some kind of compromise. You got to walk your ass back towards the middle. Everybody need to walk towards the middle. The left, the extreme left need to walk towards the middle, and extreme right need to walk towards the middle. Because it ain't nobody fitting to do it either. One of y'all's way. Y'all so far apart that you can't agree on. Nothing's disappointing. But we still have to vote. But we still we're going to vote because we have proven, and we proved to yourself that it works. Yeah, go to when we all vote dot org for voting information.

All right, we could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're going to read this one right here, right now, and you never know, it could be you. You never know. Buckle love and hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter. Subject. My husband keeps threatening my boyfriend. Just Stephen Shirley. My husband and I've been together for a total of fifteen years. I'm thirty four and he's forty two, and we have one child. He's a police detective and he's fairly short for a man, but women do not care as long as he's in uniform. He's got that Napoleon complex, so he acts like a bad butt and know it all and know it all around our family and friends. When it comes to him cheating, He's been caught in multiple situations with different women. I am at the point where I want peace and companionship. He won't entertain the subject of divorce, so I've resorted to cheating too. My only problem is that he is crazy and stalker ish, and he uses his job to make my life a living hell. He follows me around town and has acted out in public if he sees me talking to other men. I've reconnected with an old friend that moved back to the city recently, and I told him about all the drama with my marriage and he told me that I was safe with him. I started sneaking around with this man, and eventually we started a sexual relationship. Little did I know my husband was following me around when I was with the other guy. My boyfriend and has been pulled over for not having his car registered in Tennessee and he's been given a ticket for any tiny crack for a tiny crack and his wind shield. My husband has been harassing him and there's nothing we can do because he is the law. My boyfriend can't pump gas without my husband being at the gas station watching him. I am afraid something terrible is going to happen because my boyfriend says he wants to catch my husband off duty so he can beat his behind. I didn't mean for this to be so messy, but my husband will not rest until he's run my new man off. How can I stop this madness before someone gets hurt. Well, first of all, you gotta get a divorce. I mean you have to get a divorce. What is a point in sneaking around with some other man when your husband has all of this at his disposal. Like the law, you got to stop seeing your new boo until you're free and clearly Gale the man you're married to. You said it in your letter. He's crazy, not to mention stoker ish quite frankly, he does scare me with what he's doing to your man. He's harassing your man just because he can, I say, get away from him. He sounds like he's just waiting for the right moment to pin something on your boyfriend. This is not a game. I mean, you know he could something terrible can happen. It can happen. So I just think you or your boyfriend shouldn't even mess with the police. Your boyfriend's talking about catching him off duty. Don't even do that. I mean, we've seen too many incidents go wrong different circumstances, of course, but don't give your husband a reason to literally and figuratively pull the trigger. I mean, you need to get a lawyer. You need to handle this, get your divorce, then consider moving on. After you know, then consider moving on with this new guy. Steve. I don't know how to really address this letter to our great job Shirley, I agree with what you're saying. Um, this is gonna lead to you know, when I disagree with you, I'll say that too, But I don't very rarely help me, and you have very rarely totally disagree on letters. And so when you have covered the basis, I have to give credit where credit is due. So I'm gonna have to take a different approach to this letter because basically you stole my answer. Oh so you know, being the talent that I am, I have found a way to do this letter in a different way and make it about what it is. So listen carefully as I read this letter. Dear Steve, Shirley, and Tommy, my husband and I have been together for a total of fifteen years. I'm thirty four, he's forty two. We have one child. He's a police detective and he's fairly short for a man. Well, I was like, why is Tommy in it? You just explained that, Well, you know you got the talent, you know, and I know he stepped away for a moment. So this is gonna give me a free run without talking, do you then, Shelley, Steve and Tommy, he's fairly shot for a man. Uh, women do not care as long as he's in uniform. He's gotten the Napoleon complex. I think we've all seen that before. I think we've all been bitten by that Napoleon complex on this show, this show regular, yeah, on record, but especially on this Dawn. And I'm so glad he'd walked off the zoom camera because I couldn't do like I want to about me. It is the whole damn let us about you. A matter of fact, that whole time he was talking, I just saw him coming up with exception of cheating. When it comes to him cheating, He's been caught in multiple situations with different women. Tommy used to be in all the situation on the radio. He used to being the only city. I'm at the point where I want a piece of companionship, and he won't entertain the subject of the boys, so I resorted to cheating too. That This is where the letter turns. This is where you learned that two wrongs don't make her right. Two wrongs can't make her right. Ain't no revenge, ain't no getting even, They ain't no such thing. It's a disaster. My only problem is that he's crazy and star Christian to use his job to make my life living here. He follows me around town and acting out in public. So she'd reconnected with this man, and little she know that her husband has been following her and the man around town. And my boyfriend's been pulled over for not having this car registered in Tennessee. First of all, yo, let him, my husband keeps threatening my boyfriend. Just just start there, all right, hold on, st Yeah, Well, I'm really excited about this letter. All right, we'll be back in twenty three minutes after my husband keeps thread think my boyfriend right after this. You're listening to show, all right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today strawberry letter. The subject my husband keeps threatening my boyfriend. This is a weird letter. Tommy. Back to the bathroom, and well, I was reading listen letter man, and you know, my husband keeps threatening my boyfriend. But the letter is and the letter starts off dear Steve and Shirley. After reading the letter, I thought it would be best to make it more inclusive, and so I started the letter by saying dear Steve, Shirley and Tommy. And you know, as I started, yeah, I didn't want to get nobody feel left out. And you know a lot of times when you answer these strawberry letters, you want to use your expertise, you know, to get these letters across you experienced, man, what you wanta want? Do it just buying off advice and stuff and people don't know. And so I was reading to let him so here how to let us started? Just Steve Scherl and Tommy my husband. I've been together for a totally fifteen years. I'm thirty four, he forty two. We had one child. He's a police detective and he's fairly short for a man. I just threw that in. I didn't want, you know, I just thought, why would you not yo? Sat that go ahead? Why she wrote that? But women don't care, though, See this is what's uplifted for you. Women don't care as long as he's in uniform, you know, like you were a uniform or ready for love. And then she said, he's got that Napoleon complex going, so he acts like a bad answer to Lord all around our family friend. Now he cheats on her. Now this is where I took you out to let him. He cheats on her and he's been called multiple situations now in your pride, like that was you, you know, we didn't been hunting them slab hunting dewey, you know, and all of them keyweed you know, corn fed, you know, yeah, and all it went. But I'm at the point where I want peace and relationship. But he won't entertain the voice. The only problem is he's crazy and he's talking. So she started seeing him a man that she connected with an old friend on Facebook. Then they did. She decided to say she he won't entertain the voice. She just started cheating too, So now she's having an a foul, which is man. Now, the husband, who's a police officer, used his position to harass the man, pull him over and give him all cops to tickets every time she see him running cracks in the windshield the like now a boyfriend is subject gonna let him. My husband keep threatening my boyfriend. The boardfriend him then got pulled over so many times he tired him. He said he want to catch him off drough the he gonna beat his an. So now I'm afraid something terrible is gonna happen because my boyfriend said he want to catch my husband and beat his an. I didn't mean that this to be so messy, but my husband will not rest until he's running my new man off. How can I stop this madness before someone gets hurt? Shirley gave a wonderful answer. So I can't an First of all, this letter stupid. Y'all need a damn divorce. He won't entertain the divorce. Don't mean you can't five. He ain't got to sign or brief. You've just gone down there and start the process. But since you're not, here's the best thing I have come up with, is you gotta start like he's following this man around, threatening to him, and he got to Napoleon complex. You gotta give him something else to think about. Here's some suggestions I had. You gotta start doing things to aggravate him, like half tiny homes called him and see if he's interested in you know you people see you gotta run you through the shot people and give them stuff to worry about. Now, he had just tiny homes call him and see if he interested in the one you know you can call up you know they got that TV show, your reality show and tell them they're trying to recast little People of Atlanta and see if he want to you know, if he want to roll in there, you know why he's falling everybody around. You got to start activating his little lass with information like that. You know. Uh, they had the people, uh the ad agency called his house and and tell him the tards of us it's gonna have a comeback campaign. And what he liked to be the poster child and you know just not a child but he but he but the same size as one. What you want to do is to insinuate the size. You know, ask him to have some people reach out same uh you know, you know walking and they just asked him if he want to be a baby gap model. You know there's things like that, and just start working on him, like you know, you know, send a free swing set to his house. You know, it's just stuff you can do. And what the hell is all this here ful? You know you can have him, you know, like go down there and see if he want to be in a Corse commercial. You know, it's just a lot of things you could do. Anniva, shot ass pickle, you're grown ass man. As even he want to be in a Corse commercial, you're gonna piss him off. I wanna tell you that, right commercial Corse commercial, you know, and didn't hear police officer and tell him y'all want to do a reality show. Nine he want to start it. We're gonna call it tiny Cops and have his ass n't got a start? Shoot get up and then they're doing a new movie. They're gonna they're gonna do a remakeer white man can't jump, but shot me and can't either, and just do a series of fame stuck on tiny cocks. Twiny cocks love that. Yeah, it's the new reality show. And ask him this is just things you can do. I aggravate him, Nay poster comments on today's Strubberry Letters, Steve Harvey, f Femine, Instagram and Facebook. Let's check out the Struwberry Letter podcast done de Man, Sports Talk with Junior and forty six minutes after. Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show all right time now for Junior and Sports Talk Junior, which you got taken away. Okay, So you know, a couple weeks ago we talked about it some of the NBA players who don't want to be vaccinated. Well, somebody had turned around. They hold they hold thought process and uh, Andrew Wiggins Andrew Wiggins odon changed his mind. He didn't get vaccinated. Uh tall, listen what he said. He is right here. Uh A tough decision. Hopefully you know it works out in the long run and so healthy. If it was good to play, but you know, in vaccinated, that's going to be something that you know, I'm staying in my mind for a long time. I'm going I wanted to do. But he really, he said it just hoped that it works out for him. He hope he's still healthy in ten years. He twenty six years old, he said, in ten really hoping hoping that his ass who wouldn't be broke this year. That's what it said. His whole tone didn't change. Now. You know, I think one thing about it too, is that you've got understand that the Department of San Francisco Health they mandated, not the Warriors, they mandated anybody over twelve in public figures. If you want to play in this stadium, you have to be vaccinated. That's just the rule. It's not like the Warriors said, hey, get back or you can't play. No, the City of San Francisco, where you work at, said you have to be vaccinated so you can play. Now I don't know where we're that's it. I don't know what Kyrie irving that now, but I think he gonna have awakening moment as well because he's he's in. He played for Brooklyn Ness. They've mandated in New York that you have to be man did to play. But you know now Kyrie Junior is just real ignorant. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Kyrie, and take a lot of work. What Kyree fit making headlines? Yeah a lot of money, guys, it's a lot of money. Man. For a game that you lose it you gave what does that figure he make a game on? Kyrie makes four hundred and thirty five thousand dollars per game game. Now you take that out four hundred and thirty five thousand dollar time forty one home games. That's a lot, a lot of money. That's the lot of it. But now the team, what team is gonna pay you that much money? If you only play half the games? It's a business man, nobody's gonna do that. And if the interview interview you don't play any home games, anybody can to do that with you. Man, they're gonna trade you to a team that don't have that They want an exceptional talent like Tyree, and they're gonna get somebody else up in here. Anybody can do that with you. What do they think the vaccine is going to do to them? What sure I have? Now? If you're doing some research, we've been in this thing for about half a year and a half. Well, how much research do you d don't want us to be over? Here's the research, Kyrie need to know. If you miss eighty six games, you're gonna miss thirty six million dollars. Who all right, We'll be back to more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show the top of the hour. Right after this. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, we have some CLO questions that came in a little late. This one is from Mikiba in California for the Chief Love Officer, Steve Harvey. Kiba says, I'm a sixty one year old married woman. My husband filed for divorce several years ago and the papers are still on the living room table. I'm not giving him a divorce because he's been cheating on me for years. If I let him go, he'll be happily involved with his girlfriend and I'll have to start over at my age. Although we don't have sex, he's my best friend, my business partner, and my world. I know if he truly wanted to go, he would he would have left me by now, and my being foolish for holding onto him this way. Absolutely, that's ugly. It's absolutely it's been over, and a lot of this is in your mind. He's your best friend. If you give him the divorce, he gonna run off happily with his girlfriend. But he still got the girlfriend.

Marriage this is sad, But go do yo. Like what you have left that you're holding on to is nothing. If y'all still got a business and all that, you'll still have the business. Or just sue him and let him send you the money for the business. Go live your life, go travel, get a new group of friends, go join some groups. But this is over. I'm sorry. He's cheated on you.

Is this the is this the one where the black caucus, but this particular black caucus is the Hampton Black Caucus. And this is not the elected legislative Black Caucus. This is just another group, Steve that has support the Republican candidate. Yes, sir, so can I ask them to why would they do that? Does anybody know why this offshoot of Black Caucus not the real when this offshoot would support why am I asking that I know exactly why? My man? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Okay, I'm sorry. It's just like when you see all those blacks placed in the background at the Trump rally Trump, when you see them fuem holding them something blacks for Trump. You know all this hill. Listen to me. They placed those people behind the everybody behind the president ain't on enemies back there, ain't on them. They placed those people. Those people get it, those people go there. Man, it's a sad state. Weird. It's very disappointing that what the Democrats are doing. You know, I'm not sure in particular about this race in Virginia, Um, but the Democrats are divided right now. They really are divided, and it's a sad thing. It's it's the thing that the Republican Party has done masterfully. Yes, they get one place running statement and that's what they ride with.
