Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time. I don't know. Y'all have a sun giving them like the million bucks things in its true good together. For I don't join join me. You gotta turn you go, You gotta turn to turn out, turn you haven't got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water got Come Come on your thing, huh, I show will good morning everybody. You are listening to the voice, Come on dig me now. One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man got a radio show because God is in a blessing business. I just happened to be a recipient. I just happened to got a couple of things right, and man, his grace and mercy carries you the rest of the way. All you got to do is get a couple of things right, and then his grace and his mercy will take over his favor, his love of you. It's it's already evident. I mean, you know, because so many times we go along without even acknowledging him or conferring with him in our decisions, and we look up when we find ourselves in a predicament, and he always comes to the rescue. He always manages to show up. He's never too late, he's never one minute too late. And so in light of this today I wanted to talk to you about something. It's another principle of success that I'd like to share with everybody this morning. And once again, these are not things that you don't know or you've never heard before. These are just reminders along the way. And one of the things you have to be conscious of is don't be afraid to change. Don't be afraid to change because change is coming anyway. See, I have a theory, don't be afraid to change because change is coming anyway. You know, everything changes, nothing remains the same nothing, and change is inevitable. Now, you could participate in the change, or you can react to the change. Are you following me? You can participate in the change or you can react to the change. But don't be afraid to change because change is coming anyway. Now, what I mean by that is this, in participating in the change or reacting in the change, there is a difference. See, if you react to the change, that means the change has occurred and now you have to make the necessary adjustments to the change. Example, the boss walks in, you think your job is good. The boss walks in and hands you a pink slip. That right there, that's a change. Now you didn't participate in this change because you didn't ask for the pink slip. But now you got to react to the pink slip. Whenever you have to react to the change, it's an adjustment period. It almost throws you off. So change is going to come. It always does. You could participate or you can react. Or let's say your boss comes in and hands you the pink slip, and you said, you know what I've been preparing for this day. Always knew nothing last forever. I've been working on the sideline, on the business idea I had and I had, or I had several other applications in around town. I was just holding off to see what was going going. So when they hand you the pink slip, the transition to adjustment you make is a lot more smooth a transition because now you just transition into your new business I did that you've been working on, Or you transition into the apps you already had in or the contacts you made the preparation for when the day they're coming in hand you the pink slip. We stee, what did they surprise you with it? This is just one example I'm giving you, so you know, let's not nick pick the message. So what I'm saying to everybody is, don't be afraid to change because change is coming anyway. So many people are stuck in a rut because of your our refusal to change. I was hell bent on a certain thing going a certain way, and this is how I was gonna go. Well that that I was thinking didn't really fit. Now in my own personal experience, this may not be yours, but in my own personal experience, the things that I've had the most trouble letting go of was something I wanted when I line myself up with the will of God to ask God what he wanted for me. You understand, those things came a lot more easy to me because it was in the will of God. It was what God wanted me to do too. Okay, see what you mean by that? Okay, here we go. When things were going wrong in relationships for me, what I did was the biggest mistake I've ever made was I attempted to fix what was wrong in my relationship outside of the relationship filming. Okay, so I'm out there working my groove like I want to. Well, now, guess what, there's a cause and effect for all of that too. Your house ain't gonna get better. It can't. And then in that lady's room for some other things. And so now that when the change come, guess what, I gotta react to it. Now, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta have a reaction to it. Had I lined myself up in the will of God, the transition may have grown differently. It could have still ended the relationship. But guess what, some of the pain I was in I ain't had to go through. I bought a lot on myself. Sometimes you're pursuing a passion of yours, and what God really wants you to do is pursue your gift. So now you're pursuing your passion. Right, you're passionate about golf. You love golf so much you just determine. But now you're messed around. You ain't made it on the PGA Tour yet, and you fortify still talking about I'm gonna play on the PGA Tour. Really, okay, maybe you ain't as good as as you think, or maybe you're not as gifted as you think. Maybe you're pursuing a passion. Sometimes, man, we have to change and we have to ask God what is his will? His will is much simpler. It's a simpler rule. Not going to be easier, it's simpler. See when I wake up now, it's simple for me to wake up because I know that all a few things that I have to do. I have to click this mic on. I have to be positive. I have to be inspirational, I have to be in and if I have to be uplifting, got it, that's what he want. All I got to do is sit down, close my eyes, ask God to help me be who he wants me to be. And for the most part, he tell me what to say. Now, guess what he's done though, to create this in me. I went through enough things in my life. I had enough challenges. I made plenty of mistakes. So I now, at my age, I can turn around and tell somebody listening to me, Okay, this is what I did. This is a mistake I made. Maybe you see yourself in this story right here. Maybe you don't have to go this way, or this is what I've learned about becoming successful. Here's a principle that I learned. But then guess what. I had to be unsuccessful to get it though did not. So you can't have a testimony without a test Change is coming, It's inevitable. You can participate or you can react. I much prefer to participate in the change. All right, let's go. Well, look at you all up in a Thursday? What can I can? You not believe it? You made it to Thursday. You only got one more day, one more day, and we're gonna help you get through it.

Jennifer in Denver says, I'm a fifty year old married woman with a man on the side. We met at a bookstore and we share a love for real books and the smell of pages and ink. We also share a love of having sex in a car. It is refreshing to find a man that is as quirky as I am, and we recite piety, poetry and classic literature while we're having sex, and it intensifies the experience. We had tried sex a normal way in a bed, but it was stale. It is too risky to keep having sex in a car. How do we keep the magic going and not get caught? You need unescalated. You need to get you unescalated and let them seats down in the bat And don't don't ask me how I noticed, but I've heard that it's been done.

You're listening to the Stave Harvey Morning Show. Well, guys, in today's entertainment news. R Kelly is back in the news. His sexual abuse trial started yesterday in Brooklyn. R Kelly was called a predator and he is accused of rackets, hearing, sexual abuse, and bribery. The jury is made up of seven men and five women, and the assistant US attorney said that Kelly was a ring leader of a twenty year scheme where he recruited women and underage girls for sex and use lies, threats, and physical abuse to dominate his victims. Now during the trial, Kelly was wearing a gray suit, purple tie, and glasses and sat with his head down during opening statements. Meanwhile, his lawyers said, quote, they knew exactly what they were getting into. The relationship mister Kelly had with the various Jane does were consenting relationships. End quote. Some female accusers and at least one male accuser are expected to testify in this trial. Kelly has been in jail for the last two years, and if convicted, he could face decades decade got a number for you. So he got heckel at a rape. He did what oh oh oh yeah, I see what you're saying. Yea. And they said they had protesters outside the courthouse that were actually protesting in his favor, saying free r Kelly. Yeah, it was five five people. And and this is very different from free Brittany. Okay please now, totally different, totally different, totally different. Now he needs to same, Yeah, he needs to stay in, he needs to be rehabilitated. Yeah, he should never get out. And if he's acquitted of these charges, then there is still you know, he has more charges right in Minnesota, and he has more charges in Illinois. So this is um a long road and hopefully there will be more careless. Absolutely a little with Timmy Jake. I mean, that's the best joke I heard. And the joke was if you believe you can fly now, it's the time now, and that was a song. This is real life disgusting. But I mean for for his lawyer to say that, uh, these were consenting relationships, that's what you're going with. That's your defense, And I don't see how that's going to be the defense for all of the victims. Something those that were you know, under age, you know, see that at the time of the alleged assault, so you know, not an expert at this at all, None of us are for sure. Yeah what we saw though. Come on now, well you know he lost his other lawyers remembered out on it. Yeah yeah probably no, no, no said he probably do like you know, you know avalanche cases. But this ain't nobody else gonna take this case. So it's about the best he got. Yeah, that's really yeah, it's really said that he put himself in a situation too. You know, a brilliant person, your life shouldn't have to end up like this. It really shouldn't. Yeah, because it's one thing we learn it's not how you start out, it's how you end up. And he started out brilliantly and this is where he is now. Yeah. Yeah, that's really sad. All right, he did this justice all right, m Yeah, we're moving on now. Jay, it is time for today's headlines. Please all right, everybody, it's time for the news with miss an trip. Jay. Thank you soo, thank everybody. This is a trip. North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper has declared a state of emergency because of flooding from the remnants of Tropical Storm Fred. They have some people missing they're trying to get to. President Biden meanwhile says the federal government's going to begin offering COVID nineteen vaccination booster shot September twentieth. The President says he's taken several other steps to curb the new delta variant. The President admits that the federal government has only limited power to impose more widespread vaccine mandates, but he does say if nursing herbs, for instance, receive Medicaid and Medicare funds, their employees are going to have to be fully innoculated. This announcement, I'm using the power of the federal government as a payer of healthcare cost to ensure reduce those risks to our most vulnerable seniors. And mister Biden's urging more businesses to insist that their workers be vaccinated. Meanwhile, the President as telling ABC's George Stephanopolis that US troops are going to remain in Afghanistan until after the announced pull out date unless all Americans are evacuated. For all Americans are not evacuated, US troops will remain there on the ground until they get everybody out. That's because some Americans and American collaborators are being kept from making it to the airport by the Taliban. As folks to foot the United at Ember, It's get this announced that Afghan President Ashraf Ghani is now living in the UAE. Ghani bolted from Afghanistan days ago, and Afghan's ambassador to the neighboring Tajikistan is accusing Ghani had taken one hundred and seventy one million dollars with him one hundred and seventy that was not his money, and the ambassador's calling for gun He's arrest. Meanwhile, those flights are still leaving the airport a couple thousands of Americans others aboard. The State Department says, for the most part, Americans have been able to get there, but there are reports, like I say, surprise, surprise, the Taliban may not be keeping its word about standing in the way of Afghans who want to get out. So Deputy of State Wendy Sherman's making the administration's position clear. We expect them to allow all American citizens, all third country nationals, and all Afghans who wish to leave to do so. Safely and without harassment. And like I say, President Biden says, if they're not out by the end of this month, we're gonna stay until they are. Finally.

A booster for Johnson and Johnson recipients is also expected, but because it's approval came a few months later, that's not enough data and there's not enough data yet for a recommendation. So there you go. Um, so what is it eight months after you got your original shot, then you go in for your booster. Yes, that is what it is. And you know, they kind of talked about boosters from the very beginning. Yeah, they did when they were talking about vaccinations, so it's not completely surprising.

My husband texted the wrong woman, Dear Stephen Shirley. A few days ago, my husband and I went to a sister's baby shower and I found my husband in the kitchen key Cayan with a woman, and he put her phone number in his phone. I went and introduced myself, and she said she's an old friend and it was good to be back in town. My husband walked off, but I wanted to get to know her better. She told me she's single and she lives in Dallas now, but she'd be in town a few days. She told me which hotel she was staying at, and I knew it well because there's only five minutes from my house. She's a gorgeous chocolate sister with a beautiful smile and a big booty. Say that one more, Carla, I need you right here, please. Okay. She's a gorgeous chocolate sister with a beautiful smile and a big booty. He says, booty like Carla. All right, big booty. On our way home, I asked about her and my husband said he doesn't know her well. I let him know that I saw him getting her number, and he said he was just showing her a picture of our son. Later that night, I was enjoying a bubble bath and having a cocktail when I got a text message from my hubby saying, I'll come tuck you in shortly give me a minute. At first I thought he was being cute and wanted to come and get a little nookie before I went to sleep. Then I realized that this text wasn't for me. He stuck his head in the bathroom and said he was running to the liquor store. I said, be safe, and I got dressed and rode through the hotel parking lot where the woman was staying. I did not see his car, and I called him three times, but he didn't answer. I sat there thirty minutes and then he called. He said he was home and asked where I was. I told him what I was doing and he said, I'm insane. He said the text was for me, but he had to get to the liquor store before it closed. By the time I got home, he had showered and then he and he was in bed. Is he playing me? Or did I play myself this time? Well? For sure you played yourself this time, no doubt, because what you went looking for it didn't go down the way you thought it would, Meaning you didn't catch him with old girl. Not saying that he wasn't with her, but you didn't catch him that time. But please listen, listen, listen to your intuition, because it is real. What you saw in the kitchen. You saw it. Your eyes did not lie. You saw it. Your husband lied about knowing her when you came in, he left, you know, acting all suspicions and everything, and she is staying in the hotel right down the street from your house. All this stuff is very, very very suspicious. So if you're trying to catch him, just give him a minute, Okay, I think you will. He'll slip up somewhere they always do, and you'll catch him with his pants down. Now do we want this for you, guys? Absolutely not. We don't want this. So let your husband know that he's about to lose everything if he steps out with her. Okay, he doesn't want to do that. You're watching him. Tell him you're watching him, so he better not do anything stupid. Once that trust is broken, it's not impossible, but it is very hard, hard, hard to get it back. Keep your eyes open, don't doubt what you know, you see with your own two eyes, and just you know, keep watching. But you gotta be a little more clever than you were next time. All right, come on the background, I'm blowing. I'm blowing. Listen, baby girl. You're too impatient. You showed your hand too fast. Yeah, that's what you did. You too impatient. If you would have just once once you saw what happened in the kitchen, just wait on it. That's all you had to do, was wait once, he said, Once you realize she was down the street at the hotel, you should know. Now this ain't right. Wait on it. You're too impatient. You're trying to blow the cover. While y'all was riding in the car. What you told him. I saw you, I saw you do this, do that. Quite talking. You're supposed to be investigating right now, okay, you are detective right now about your relationship. Ride it out. You're supposed to be. I'm gonna wait and wait and wait. Did they set something up? You damn right they did. But guess what, you blew the cover way too early. So guess what, you'll never catch him now because he know you looking. It's too late, baby girl, You'll never catch him because he already knows. And big Booty Dog skinned down the street at the hotel, she knows too, that you came through the parking lot looking for Everybody knows, so everybody gets aware. So when they do make it happen, trust me, you're gonna be far away from them. They're gonna be on the other side of town, out of town. It's not you. You're not gonna ever get it now. It won't happen. That's all that's all time. It never will show Shane. Yes, First of all, we have determined the ages of these people just by some of the words in this letter. Tuck you in nookie and nukie and run to the store. First of all, this player is using old, old terminology to get out the house. I mean, be a little more creative. I'm going to the store. Come on, dude, I'm a Shane. Of the lines that you trying to use to get to your side piece. Be more clever. You forgot to do that thing said say that. Oh my god, I've forgot that bang at the office. It don't matter if you don't have an office, just say it. You ain't got you ain't got to say. Well, you don't work in the office. That's why it's so important. I got to get it. Yeah, I know I don't work in the office. But I got that bang at the office going to the store. Oh, who does that? Dad? Going to the store? Hey, yea hold that thought and we'll let you finish up when we come back at twenty three minutes after the hour. Strawberry Letter for today, the subject my husband texted the wrong woman. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening to the String Show. All right, guys, we are back with part two of the Strawberry Letter, the subject my husband texted the wrong woman. Uh, it's it's written from a woman who a few days ago, she and her husband went to her sister's baby showers. She saw her husband and the kitchen talking to a woman and putting his number in her phone, so she wanted to find out more about the woman. She walked up and introduced herself. The woman told her she was an old friend and that it was really good to be back in town. Turns out she was staying at the hotel right down the street from her house, and she knew her husband she was an old friend. The woman asked her husband about it. The husband said he barely knew her, and he was showing her a picture of her son, of their son, not he was putting her number in the phone. And so the woman said, okay. She went home, got in the bathtub, got a cocktail. Then she got a text from her husband saying, I'll come tuck you in shortly. Give me a moment, give me a minute. So at first she thought, you know, her husband was being cute and everything, but then she realized he meant to text the girl down the street in the hotel. So she got out the tub, got dressed, went to the hotel, drove around, didn't see her husband's car, didn't see the woman anything, nothing, she had nothing, You got Nate, right, And then she went home. So she wants to know. She went home, she didn't find anything, didn't find her husband cheating. She went home, her husband was there, although she did try to call her husband. Her husband was there saying where have you been? I went to the liquor store like I said, and uh, he was showered in in the bed. So she wants to know is her husband playing her or did she play herself? Jay, finish up your thoughts. We think you played herself. You everybody needs a side piece, buddy. Now, once you have a side piece, you have to have a side piece. Buddy. He is to call your wife or your girlfriend and say, hey, I've been trying to reach such and so, where is he? Well?

Thank you, Shirley, Thank you, nephew, little one on the end, never do hey, hey, let's get going. Real Housewives of Potomac. All right, So, as you know, the ladies are on a trip at Williamsburg, Virginia. They are staying at a nice house. The crib is off the chain. But anyway, while eating, Gazelle told Wendy that we've been seeing more of your body parts in the past month than I have seen in the entire time that I've known you. Well, Giselle, what's the big deal Wendy? Is I hear living her best life? She just got a boot job, a booty job, So let Wendy be great, let her do her theme. Robin agreed with Giselle, and she said that, you know, Wendy, you've been dropping it like it's hot. So to speak. So Wendy says, you don't tell me, you don't define my sexiness, because you know, Wendy is a professor, She has multiple degrees. You know, she told us that last season over and over and over. We know she got a lot of degrees. Yeah, and she is on TV. She's a political commentator. So they're saying, you know, with what you do for a living, you can't just be having all of this out like that. But she said, hey, you don't define my sexiness. I'll do what I want to do, Okay, get your money's worth time up right right or your boobs exactly? So moving on, I like Robin's new friend Ascala or a Skyla. I don't know if I'm pronouncing it right, but I like when she came to Gizelle and said, so, what's up with you and your man? What's all these rumors about what you and you're a man? And then Gizelle said that she didn't want to discuss it in front of the group and she wants to talk about it privately. So I kind of agree with Karen Gizelle. You be coming for people, you be all in their stuff, but then when somebody wants to talk to you about your stuff. You try to shut it down all the time, so you need to check yourself on that. So that is Real Housewives of Potonac Moving on, Real Housewives of Dallas is canceled for good na yeah yeah nah, come on, Junior, Na no.

Kelly was called a predator and he is accused of rackets, hearing, sexual abuse, and bribery. The jury is made up of seven men and five women, and the assistant US attorney said that Kelly was a ring leader of a twenty year scheme where he recruited women and underage girls for sex and used lies, threats, and physical abuse to dominate his victims. Now, during the trial, Kelly was wearing a gray suit, purple tie, and glasses and sat with his head down during opening statements. Meanwhile, his lawyers said quote they knew exactly what they were getting into the relationship mister Kelly had with the various Jane does were consenting relationships. End quote. Some female accusers and at least one male accuser are expected to testify in this trial. Kelly has been in jail for the last two years, and if convicted, he could face decades decade a novel full So he got heckel at a rape. He did what you mean, oh oh oh, yeah, I see what you're saying.
