Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time. I don't know. Y'all have a son giving them like the million buck things in it not good together for I don't join Jo. You gotta turn you, you, you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn you have got to turn them out of the turn turn the water the water go. Come come on your baby, I show will a good morning everybody. Y'all listening to the voice, come on dig me now wanted only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, here we go. I was working out. I was talking to a buddy of mine, and I was telling him something that Bishop td Jake's told me one time. I heard him say it. He said, I would hate to die and not do the thing that I was born to do. I would hate to die and not do the theme that I was born to do. Man, oh man, oh man, man. That hit me like a like a like a pile of bricks man, because it made me feel so grateful that God has allowed me to live my life this way now. And I'm talking about grateful for all of it, the good, the bad, and the ugly, and I have had all of them. The person you see today, it ain't always who I was. It was on the inside of me, but it hadn't externalized itself, if that's a word. It hadn't been brought out. It was in hell, but it was under development. Who I am today was a process. But like I said before, don't trip Hem through with me yet. Even today, I'm still an imperfect soldier for Christ. Today I still fall short oftentimes, but I'll tell you what, I'm ever grateful for the life I have. And you know what, I want to courage everybody today to explore your possibilities. I mean, man, explore your possibilities. Why would you not want to find out, discover, or know what it is God got for you? Why would you not want to achieve or accomplish all of your possibilities? Now, as I ask you this question, I want you to know that the devil is busy, that he plays mind tricks. So as you hear this, I already know he's saying to some of y'all, Yeah, Steve, that's easy for you to say, but I didn't get myself in this situation right here. Ain't nothing too hard for God? Nothing nothing. And see, so as you listen to me to try to get your mind open to this. Why would you not want to explore all of your life's possibilities, what's possible with your life? And I'm talking about from right where you are right now. I'm not asking you to change, I'm not asking you to do anything. I'm telling you this is a fact that God can get you from right where you are right now. Broken, misled, misguided, misunderstood, mistaken, all of that, misfortunate, all of the missus you've been talking about in your life. You know you. I missed the lottery, I missed my ride. They fined men, I missed the deadline. I didn't get it, miss pop. People just miss stay self to death. If you've been all in missus, God can get you from right where you are. God a home run hitter. I'm here to tell you that he's a home run hitter. He's a put him over the wall whenever he wants to, all the time. And you can be a recipient of some of these home runs. He'll put the bat in your hand. But you got to swain now, listen to me. You got to stop feeling sorry for yourself. You got to stop holding yourself down with beating yourself up. He won't hold you down about it if you don't hold yourself down about it. But I'm gonna tell you one more time. The devil is busy. So what the devil do is He makes you think you ain't worthy. He makes you think that you've done something so despicable that you can't come back from it. He makes you feel like you're so low you can't go up high. He knocked you down, and make you feel like you've been knocked down harder than anybody else. You can't get up. He rolled you so deep down in that ditch you can't see over the edge. God can come get you from no matter where you are. I'm telling you, man, you ain't in no hole too deep for God. Magic Johnson tell you that. Listen to me, you ain't in no hole too deep for God. Steve Harvey can tell you that you ain't in a hole too deep for God. Tyler Perry can tell you that. I can name you some people. Bishop Jake can tell you that. I could tell you. Kenneth Alma can tell you that. Bishop Kenneth Olman I could tell you some people. Kirk Franklin can tell you that. Donnie mcclarkton can tell you that. I just know some people personally man that then't been in a hole. Joel Oldstein can tell your body, I know some people man been down, been in a hole so deep, I bet you. Paula Deane can tell you about it. See. But but you know what, then here we go, see we see see you know, see we don't. We don't like to talk about that because now we want everybody to pay extra hard for some mistakes they made when clearly and excuse me for being a new Christian, but there is a pred that I've been saying since I was a little bitty boy, and it took me till I was a grown man to understand it. Forgive us our trust passes as we forgive those who trust passed against us. So see, it ain't my job to hold nobody down, to keep my knee on somebody's neck. Who am I. I'm gonna need some forgiveness in a second here, probably today. See so all this, you're holding people down with the way you feel inbot then she shouldn't have said this and she will never get it. I never support this again. Man, get up, get up and get real. You're for real? You think you ain't fit the need forgiveness real soon you ain't going to make a diabolical mistake in your life. You don't think you are. I have thousands of them, probably gonna make a few hundred more for I get up out of here. So I've decided to be in a forgiving business because I want God to forgive my trust passes as I forgive those who trust passed against me. You understand. See excuse me for being a new Christian. I get I get tired of talking to pistol, to people man supposed to be saved and talking about dead Christian. I don't want that type religion. Man. I ain't in that, Nomal. I ain't in that. You can call me wrong if you want to saying how you want to say. I ain't in that, No, Moal, I ain't in all that. You can feel how you want to feel about me. But I got proof that God work in my life. You know, I can't hardly get it out Sometime when people ask me something about deeper on the inside of me, about my soul and how I used to being, and my journey and my trip. Because people don't know the trip I've been on. You may have been on one worse than me. But you know what, you ain't in a hole too deep. God can't get you out of Man. I wish, I want. I want people to remember that man, God is a redeemer, He the great I am. So if you ain't got nothing, now what you asking fault? You know you might not have nothing because you ain't asking for nothing. Could asking God to get you out of debt and ask God for a life of abundance. Then you take the money and you get out of debt. You keep asking to get out of debt. You keep being in debt to get out of Come on, man, what you're asking God fault? I'm just tripping to day, That's all. I'm sorry. I apologize.

Uh CD writes, I'm a thirty nine year old married woman and I had an outside child during our third year of marriage. My husband was a cheater. He cheated on me before and after we got married, and I tried to play the same game, but I was careless. I had a son, and I have fallen in love with the father of my child. My husband begged me not to leave because he's a pastor and everyone thinks we're such a perfect couple. I'm tired of living this lie. Would I'd be crazy to leave my husband in hopes of a fresh start with the other guy. Well, it's one simple question. You need to know. Does the other guy want to have a fresh start with you? See fact? And how does he? How old is the son? Well it doesn't say, but she had a child under third year of marriage. That's the only question you need to know is does this guy you had this a fan with, want to have a new start with you. That's the problem. See you you want a lot of stuff, but ain't gonna happen. That's the dilemma you have. The only delemba you can. I would suggest you go get a fresh start with this new guy. If the new guy won't you, does he know that's his name? That's the other question exactly See have you told him that? Does the pastor know that he raising another man's child? Oh? Hello, if you want me to stay for that, I'm about to go. All right, We're moving on. La Curtis and La Curtis and Jacksonville says Curtis. You heard me. My wife and I have an RV to visit all of our grandkids in Georgia's that's an old name, love Curtis. Curtis. Yeah, it's on our sideyard. It's in our sideyard and out of the way. My cousin is having marital issues, so he asked to stay in my RV one night after his wife put him out. I let him stay one night in it, and he left it a total mess. I could tell he had a woman in it, and it smelled like weed. I asked him to get it professionally, professionally cleaned, but he said it was like that before he got in there. I can't have my wife in there after some bimbo has stayed there. How do I handle this clo Well, I mean, first of all, you got to get it clean because you let your cousin stay in there. Your cousin trifling. He ain't gonna clean it, so, you know, which is the reason why he getting put out his own house anyway. And he come right over there and have another woman in there. So now you got to clean it. And I guess you told your wife somehow that there was a woman in here, or your wife went out there and discovered it. But you got to get the thing professionally clean. Need some new bes, friends and all that. Yeah, new benny, Yeah you know, yeah, you gotta get some new bed and dog did that to yourself? Yeah yeah, you did. You knew your cousin was trif and the curtis you you know better name, don't you called called love Henderson ain't never been worth for damn cousin's name him? All novel? All right, moving on, here's another one you you might take a liking to Steve Clo verse Shawn verse that's black. Wait a minute, it gets better verse Shawn in Kentucky. Okay, all of that is good. Um, I'm a thirty three year old single woman and I'm attracted to a sixty seven year old man. He's wealthy and powerful, and the best part is he's divorced. I interact with him at work, when he's at my office for corporate meetings. He doesn't know that I'm crazy about him, and I'm not sure how to approach him. I've heard a few men on social media telling us women that we don't deserve high quality men if we're not really bringing anything to the table. Wonder who that could be? Is this true? Should I shoot my shot or not? Clo? I mean going and shoot your shot. But he's sixty seven and wealthy. You thirty three. You don't think he knows that you had these feelings for him. Now are you attracted to him? Are you attracted to the fact that he's wealthy? Okay, vos and you're looking for a come up because when he was just sixty seven in the dude driving the towmode over there, I don't think you'd be that much in love with him, even if he looked the exact and he was a tomo to drive. I doubt very seriously, Vershan, if you'd had the same feel as man in Kentucky. All right, thirty four years older than you. So should she shoot her shots? Tea, Yeah, gonna beat it. See what you say, see what's see what he says, see what happened? Yeah, yeah, you don't think he's seen this movie before? The Yeah? Yeah, all right, he ain't just get this money. Let's move on to Caprice. Caprice in Saint Louis says, I'm a fifty one year old school teacher and I teach dance at the school. I've always had a great body, and I take pride in my nice muscular legs. When we have dance practice, most of the male teachers are in the gym or lurking around the gym when I'm in my dance attire. The white female principle has called me in several times, saying I'm a distraction and I need to wear jogging pants instead of shorts. Is she out of line for insinuating that the way I dress is a distraction? Should I cover up more at practice. No, I don't think that she's a distraction. I think the men are out of line. Dance dance Attie is appropriate. Yeah, and why you got to cover up because these dudes in here can't pull theirself together, so you you're inappropriate or they have lack of control and discipline and unprofessionalism. And she's wrong for requiring that of you because dancers wear dance outfits. Yeah, she is, so they can't go, So they can't go to the little kids practice either. Then huh, all right, cello, thank you, We gotta go there the crazy man, the nephew run that prank back right after that. You're listening Dave Harvey Morning Show.

Time now for trending medical news. There is a new mask mandate because yesterday the CDC recommended that fully vaccinated people begin wearing masks indoors again in places with high COVID transmission rates. The updated guidance comes ahead of the fall season with the Delta variant that is expected to cause another surge in new coronavirus cases. Experts say COVID prevention strategies remain critical to protect people from the virus, especially in areas of moderate to high community transmission levels. President Biden will announce Thursday that federal that's tomorrow, that federal employees get vaccinated. Okay. The President also said, the biggest protection we have against the Delta variant is the vaccination. Meanwhile, a restaurant in Huntington Beach, California, said they will only serve unvaccinated customers and wow, really all right, we really live in two America's now, the vaccinated and the unvaccinated. Okay, which one are you? Yeah. I had a friend text me today to tell me that he got his first JOS of the vaccine today. He said, because of you, surely because of you. And I'm like, thank you. I'm glad you did it. I'm so glad you did it. You know, good because I've been telling him, please go get vaccinated, you know, go, it's gonna have you know, get it. I saw an interview and people on the news that that were actually in the hospital and and you know, laying there with COVID saying they wish they would have gotten that shot. They wish they would have gotten it. He did that on CNN yesterday. I mean there's a lot of people. Yeah, so glad I got And you know, my, my, my, my good friend that was in ICU he just got moved to a regular room. Well that's good news. Scenes on the road recovery good ye, thank you lord. So yeah, that's a good thing. And Licy he's still in the hospital, but going to a regular room, that's that's a good thing. I mean, it's just we keep saying, it's some of this is unavoidable. You guys, you just take the vaccination. And you know, I was talking to somebody yesterday and they were saying, you know, people research on social media. They look up all the reasons as to why not to take the shot. They're looking for things to match on how they feel. And this was actually Dave our Engineering. He was saying, why don't people just take that time and pick up the phone, call your healthcare provider, call your doctor, get some medical advice. Don't just believe misinformation you know that you're seeing on social media. This could save your life. Yeah, this is serious. Yeah, I mean it's not like we've never been vaccinated before. Everyone who's been to school you got you had to take vaccines. Yeah. We have so much social media that has misinformation in it, and we're falling into it, and we got to stop this foolishness. Man, listen, y'all, we gotta get vaccinated. This thing is real out here. Yeah, yes, this thing is real. Tell him step come on, Steve haarby Nation please. Yeah, all right, Steve, let's move on to the headlines. You know, hopefully, ladies and gentlemen. Miss Anne Tripp thank you, And of course the first headline is happy birthday to sweet Shirley Strawberry. Everybody, this is a trip with the news well in Washington, not so sweet, very very sad. On the first day of the testimony before the House committee investigating the Capitol Hill riots, Metro police gave emotional accounts of what happened to them that day. Officer Michael Fannon, for one, talked about his injuries as well as his utter disappointment with Republican lawmakers who say that Trump supporters acted more like tourists than terrorists. I had been beaten unconscious and remained so for more than four minutes. At the hospital, doctors told me that I had suffered a heart attack, and I was later diagnosed with a concussion, a traumatic brain injury, and post traumatic stress disorder. What makes the struggle harder and more painful is to know so many of if the people I put my life at risk to defend, are downplaying or outright denying what happened. I feel like I went to Hell and back to protect them, but too many are now telling me that Hell doesn't exist, or that Hell actually wasn't that bad. The indifference shown to my colleagues is disgraceful well. One of the only two Republicans on the committee, a Wisconsin Senator Liz Cheney. She points out that she differs with the Democrats on policy. In fact, her voting record is usually always write down the line with the Republicans, But she says she agrees that probing all things around the January sixth insurrection should be paramount. If those responsible are not held accountable, and if Congress does not act responsibly, this will remain a cancer on our constitutional republic will face the threat of more violence in the months to come, and another January sixth every four years. Okay, as you just heard from Shirley and the others, the nation's masking rules are changing again. Yes again. The director that sentence with Disease Control is doctor Rochelle Wilinsky. The CDC's updated recommendations come as a devastating wave of COVID infections are seen in every state. Doctor Willinsky lays it out. BDC recommends fully vaccinated people wear masks in public indoor settings to help prevent the spread of the delta variants and protect others. Vaccinating more Americans now is more urgent than ever. The highest spread of cases and severe outcomes is happening in places with low vaccination rates and among unvaccinated people, and those states especially Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Florida. By the way, good news for all you munchies, hundreds of FREEDO lay workers have ended there nearly three week strike after ratifying a new contract. So munch on now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Well, yesterday, Simone Biles withdrew from Team USA gymnastic finals at the Olympics in Tokyo. Simone told her teammates that she's dealing with some things and she didn't want to hurt herself or the team. Simone went on to say, to put your mental health first. Take a listen, Please put mental health first, because if you don't, then you're not going to enjoy your sport and you're not going to succeed as much as you want too. So it's okay sometimes to even sit out the big competitions to focus on yourself because it shows how strong of a competitor in person that you really are, rather than just battle through it. I respected that, and they went on to win the silver, and then that's big and we got to congratulate the team. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they won a silver or the team won silver. Yes, yep, they did win the silver yesterday. Yes, without her, yes, but she was right there to them as they were doing it, helping them and supporting them. I mean, what a good sport and team player she is, you know, right, well, you know what seems she encouraged them. She told them they had trained their entire lives for this moment. She had been to the Olympics, but she just had some she was second guessing herself and warm up since she just wasn't in the right headspace and she didn't want her continue. Yeah, and she decided to pull herself from it and told them, you know, she wasn't that she was making mistakes I had never seen her make in the early going, you know, stepping completely off the match three times. You would said that, yeah, mind, yeah, I think you know it was a lot of that posing with the goat and making her feel like she was unbeat a bullet pressure, a lot of pressure, huh, yeah it is. And then she had a goat like symbol on one of her uniforms on the shoulder of one of her uniform I mean, you know they did that. Yeah, they made us some slippers with the goat on it. She wouldn't do that. But but the point of the matter is she is the goat, the goat. Ever, that's right, she could have stopped. Yeah, she still is the goat. Yeah, no matter what she does, that's a good choice for choice. Yeah, she did it for herself and for her team, you know, because if she stayed in there, they might not have gotten that silver dough. But but but anybody that's got a problem with that, something wrong with you? Yeah, and yeah, and good damn Olympics. Ain't nobody getting paid on this? Always keeping it one hundred all right? Coming up at thirty four minutes after the hour, we'll have more on this Wellness Wednesday as we discuss taking off her self care. Right after this, you're listening to show well guys, Today's Wellness Wednesday, and we're talking about the goat, Simone Biles and goat, in case you don't know, is greatest of all times. Okay, it's an accurate greatest of all times. Yep, Simone Biles. We're talking about mental health and self care. So Steve. If you talk about hustling, grinding, working out, working hard, but when do you know, I mean really know in your spirit that it is time to take a break. Time for Steve, some Steve time. Well, you know, my temperament changes. You know, I get a little bit more, you know, on edge, I'm not as I'm not as quick. I start feeling like I'm having to do a lot of stuff instead of getting to do a lot of stuff. And once I start feeling that way a few days out of the week, then I know, okay, man, you need a break. You you you got to turn off this motor man because you got it cranked up a little bit much. And then your body tells you stuff too. Man, if you're not sleeping, well you know because your mind is not turning off. You know a lot of times when you go to sleep and you wake up and you still feel tired, it's because your mind didn't rest. You know you had you know, you could be in bed in your mind just be dreaming and going through everything that you got to do them all right, you don't cut it off, you don't shut down, right, no, man. So so that's when you know that it is time to take a break, time for some self care, time to chill, time to you know, you know how you do when you vacation and stuff like that. So yeah, that's good advice. Yeah. And if you can't do that, you know, go on a yacht like Steve care, you know, and fly private jets and all of that. Your version of it. Do do your version of it. But the the important thing the message is to take time for you. You you. I have a question for you guys, for everybody. Do you all think that I think that social media brings about a lot of stress for people. I think that people are trying to live like the Joneses, or or do what they see or what they think how other people are living, and they're adding stress. Go ahead and think we're too addicted to it. It's like we gotta you gotta look at it every day. You gotta go see what people are saying. Sometimes I have to take a break from social media and say, all right, I'm not looking at that this week. I don't want to look at it. Sometimes you gotta take a break from it because if not, you just get pulled in every other second. You want to see what somebody saying. Here's this response here's what they posted. Pull up on it. Yeah. The other day when I saw Curtie Thee's posts, when she posted all those broken bags, remember that in every different color and fabric and all that, I was like, dang, I don't even have one, so right, you know, But that's what I mean. It's just feel in some kind of way. Yeah, you know. Yeah, I think like Tommy was saying. The social media thing though, I think people put so much stock in it that they allow it to dictate to them. And you have to understand what social media is. Man. If you look at the number of likes you get on a picture or the number of views, it's really miniscule in the total scheme of how many people are really in this world. And if you look at those number of views and likes and you broke down the demographic the demographics, you'd really keep moving on because Halfton, people ain't old enough to tell you a damn thing, right, That's true. Yes, and they got a little grown up ass opinions with their little young, stupid ass. But that's what drives millennials and Gen xers, that's what drives them, you know. Uh, social media, we didn't have that growing up. But that's that's what drives them. They can't live without it. They're always on their phones, you know. Adds to the pressure though, and it does it all. Yeah, I really really do. And what about your eyes? You know, just think about something like that, your eyes watching that constantly, all the jests. You know, you got you gotta step back from this stuff, you really really do, all right? Yeah, self care, all right, it's important. Coming up next, it is a nephew with today's prank phone call. Right after this, you're listening to Dame Harvey Morning Show. Coming up at the top of the hour, right about four minutes after. It's my strawberry letter for today.

Who knows this letter could be yours? It could be write us. We'll try to help you buckle up, but hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is a Strawberry letter. Thank enough you. Subject my sister and my mister, Dear Stephen, Shirley A year ago I found out that my husband cheated on me with my sister. We were married for nine years, so it was not unusual for him to have a great relationship with my sis. They joked around and would play fight like they did not like each other, and all along I thought it was cute and I had no idea that that was for play. I caught them in our garage one day years ago behind the car, and my husband jumped up and told me they were trying to scare me. Boy, was I stupid? Back then? I started yes. I started to hear rumors from other family members about how close my husband and my sister were, and my female intuition kicked in. I started monitoring his text messages and his email, but didn't find anything. Then my nephew told me about the WhatsApp and how he and his friends can send private messages on it without his mom seeing them. I found the app on my husband's phone and that's where all of the messages were. He had set up a lunchtime quickie with my sister at her salon, and little did he know I was coming to She has one of those salon suites in a building, so there's not much privacy in there. I could barely see them through the blinds, but I saw what I needed to see. My husband had my sister bent over the shampoo bowl and I almost passed out. I stayed until it was over, and when he out, I threw my coffee on him and asked him to move out of our house as soon as possible. I have not seen or spoken to my sister in a year. She and my ex husband still mess around, but I'm happy and dating. I've forgiven him and my sister. But my sister can't face me still and talk about what she's done to me. Life is short? So how do I get her to talk to me? Please advise? All right, let me see, all right, this woman, your sister, slept with your husband on more than one occasion. You saw her bent over the shampoo bowl with your husband. You're upset? What you're saying? Yeah, and you're upset because she won't talk to you. What huh? What do you want to talk to her about? Why she did it, how she did at it? Why is she still messing around with him? That's really the only conversation you guys can have at this point. And look, I definitely believe in forgiveness. I do and truly commend you for extending the olive branch to your sister and realizing that life is short. I just don't get why you think your sister would want to talk to you. I mean, she's still sleeping with your ex. You say she's scared to face you, but I think she simply doesn't give a narn about whether you guys speak or not, or if you are sisters or not. If she did after you busted them, she would have stopped seeing them, or tried seeing him, or tried somehow to make it up to you. She would have tried something. But it's been a whole year and you've got nothing from her. It says to me, not that she's scared like you think, but it says that just because someone is related to you, like your blood sister in this case, doesn't mean they won't sleep with your man. So pleasus, I mean, go on, continue to live your best life. I love your sister from a distance, Steve. The letter should be my trifling sister and my mister. Yeah, and that's all it is. I really can't add anything to what Shirley said. She covered the letter exactly the way it should be covered. I don't know what you want. Look if you okay, let me just go. You said that you was married nine years ago and you found out your husband cheated on you with your sister. Okay, Now, and y'all was married nine years so it was unusual for him to have a great It wasn't unusual for him to have a great relationship with your sister. They joke around, would play flight like they ain't like each other. That's how kids doing school. Yeah, I act like I ain't like yvon Chuck when I was in the element school. But lord, Yvonne Chuck, Lord he messed girl. That girl had plats in her hand. Dog had some Brits blue and yellow. It might be my birthday, but I've never had plattes. Okay, so now figure it out. Come on, Steve. I didn't know what to do with a girl when I was eight, But I just wanted huh, what did you want? I mean, I wanted huh. You know, you know, I wanted her like I wanted a bike. You know, well that was different. Shouldn't have said bike. I wanted her like I wanted a new baseball glove. I just wanted her to be my friend. Anyway, you were alive? Did she? Oh? She she did. I was stuttering though, so I couldn't so yeah, all right, Well, hang on, Steve, we'll have part two of today's Strawberry Letter, My Sister and My Mister at twenty three minutes after the hour, and we would get Steve Part two right after this. You're listening show, All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject my sister and my mister. Well, your sister, your trip and sisters mess around with your husband. You found out y'all were together nine years and it was wasn't unusual for them to be close. So you say they would play fighting, act like they ain't like each other. You thought it was cute. You had no idea it was four playing. Then one day you caught him in the garage behind the car, and your husband jumped on and told they was trying to skive me? Or was I stupid? Back then? What is y'all doing back behind? Contrast? How did they do that? You know? They back down? They kissing real hard behind the car. Go boot. We tried to scare you, you called us God, let's go back in here. Girl. So I started hearing rumors from other family members about how close they were, and your female tuition kicked in way too damn l I started monitoring his text message and you couldn't find that. Then your nephew told you about who's happened. Now he and his friends can send private messages without his mama seeing. So you found the app on your husband's phone, and that's why all the messages were. He had said a bunch time quickie with my sister at her salon, and little did he know I was coming to She got one of them salon sweets in a building, so there ain't much privacy, and now I could barely see them through the blinds. When I saw what I need to see, my husband had my sister bent over the shampoo boone and I almost passed out. I stayed there until it was over because he was bringing it. I mean, I'm sorry, but that ain't even excuse me. I stayed until it was over, and when he walked out, I threw my coffee on him. That's good if the coffee was hot, but that depends on how long she was over that shampoo bow because your coffee might have been cold and didn't have that much effect. So, and I think it was cold because you ain't mentioned nothing about him going blind and nothing like that, which I'm pretty sure was your whole gold Wait a minute, said it was cold. Yeah, I think the coffee was cold because they was on that shampool bow for a long after time. It wasn't as quick as you thought it was gonna be cold. The coffee was cold because when you throw the coffee on him, he didn't He didn't run a holla or nothing. He just stood there. He thought it was ice coffee from star Bull because she had been she had been all over that shampoo bow, putting near work. And so then anyway, and now asking to move out of our house as soon as possible. Now, I've not seen us spoken to my sister in a year. She and my ex husband said, you didn't got a divorce. Still mess around, But I'm happy in Dayton, I forgiving him and my sister. But my sister still can't face me and talk about what she's done to me. Life is short, So how do I get her to talk to me? So you want to talk about she can't face you and talk about what she's done to me. So you want to confront her about it, which I do definitely understand because I would want to know too what the hell you was thinking. But we're gonna talk after I get mine in though. Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna get something in before we talk, And so I don't really understand. I agree with Shirley, it's what you want to talk to you afore. But Shirley said, forgiveness is a good thing. I'm not gonna forgive you right away what it was. Yeah, so and you saw it the sapoo. Yeah, that shampoo bowl. You can't even going in and get your head done. No more that you can't even going that damn salon them the blind you were sneaking looking in just the chair. He had his foot one when you were there at that shampoo bowl, and she had her head on that side with the loop in it. She had her head and that her thought was on that. And he had one of his knees up in that chair facing the ball because he was going for leverage and he was in that and then he had in one hand was on that water hole, that one single nozzle that just fray and he was just refreshing himself every nine But products did they knock down off the shelf?

Henrietta. Henrietta is the sister he had. Henrietta been over that shampoo bowl. I ain't saying what they were doing, but Henrietta had tied her head up since she knew he was coming down. Now. She had put her head rag on because she couldn't get her half sweated out because she had another client coming in at four fifteen. So they was meeting at two third because it was supposed to be a quickt but she know Hank don't know how to do nothing quick. So they've been there about forty minutes. That's why she wrapped her head up, you know, because she got that short cut and she tried to keep it right and everything. So they was in there and a couple of things had started to happening real bad because Hank had hurt his knee while he was doing his business back there. Because you know, this dude named Waverley, he still got a curl. This old man named Waverley, he still got a curl. And so he had them little bitty pink rollers and one of them was in the flow.

Watching all of this, and the sister looking at she said, and the letter, she almost passed out. Yes, she did, she did. She couldn't believe her sister was getting Hank because she thought she was the only one wind Hank. But Hank too much man for one woman, but not enough for two. You know that's to be a Wither song. You know, I want, I want to do it in the hasselon want You're hot, Tommy, all right, coming up at the top of the hour, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this. It's my birth day. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi posted that Kevin McCarthy and many House Republicans continued to disrespect law enforcement and dismissed their heroism after January sixth insurrection. Yesterday, during the House Select Committee hearing, officer Henry Dunn said that no one had ever called him an inn word while wearing a Capitol Police officer uniform. Take a listen to this, please. I'm a law enforcement officer and I do my best to keep politics out of my job. But in this circumstance, I responded, well, I voted for Joe Biden. Is my vote not count? Am I nobody? That prompted a torrent of racial epithets. One woman in a pink Maga shirt yelled, you hear that, guys voted for Joe Biden. Then the crowd, perhaps around twenty people joined in, screaming boom. No one had ever ever called me a while wearing the uniform of a Capital police officer. Wow. Wow, Wow. It's chilling hearing it in their own words, isn't it. I saw his testimony yesterday, Officer Harry Dunn, and it was just unbelievable that these conservative gops is Republicans are down playing what happened on January sixth. They're acting like there's no big deal. You know, we're waiting for the elections next year. They think they're, you know, gonna win and get back in power. That's what this is all about, all of it. So that's only there's only been one person convicted. The one sentencing of the one guy that we talked about last weekend. Tommy got about eight months or something like that, and he got that sentence because the judge said he wasn't the ringleader. Ain't that right? Well, leader, let's get him Donald Trump leader. You're so right about that. Officer Harry Dunn went on to say that the person who ordered the hit on January six should be arrested just like the hitman would be in any other criminal case. Also, officer uh Michael Phenone confronted lawmakers for downplaying the riot. Yeah, and he got seriously hurt in all of this. That's the one that said, thank you, Steve, and then blank you remember him? Yeah? You know what, though, Man, it's like this any if this had been anybody else, Yes, if this for just the Black Lives Matter protesters, this is not even a question of is this a crime, how should this be punished? Or did they do the officers wrong? It wouldn't even be a question. But the Republican Party has politicized this. Yeah, and that is the damn shameness of this country we live in, because it is such a hypocritical ass country. They ain't nothing on paper they say they are. They don't give a damn about that judicial system if it affects their power and their money in their position. Yes, So now to hail away with all y'all we want to stay in office. I don't make no sense, man, Yeah, that don't make no sense, none at all, none at all. And these hearings continue. I mean, they're just making it so difficult. You know, they won't call it what it is. You know, people died. It's like they're they're downplaying that and watering it down. It's a disgrace really what they're doing. It's really let's go to the source. Let's go back to who started it, who sent y'all down the street, and that's the person that is responsible forty fine anything, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is like Steve said, if it was anybody else that had done this and we know this, yeah, you know, well what have happened?

CD writes, I'm a thirty nine year old married woman and I had an outside child during our third year of marriage. My husband was a cheater. He cheated on me before and after we got married, and I tried to play the same game, but I was careless. I had a son, and I have fallen in love with the father of my child. My husband begged me not to leave because he's a pastor and everyone thinks we're such a perfect couple. I'm tired of living this lie. Would I'd be crazy to leave my husband in hopes of a fresh start with the other guy. Well, it's one simple question you need to know. Does the other guy want to have a fresh start with you? See Max? And how does he? How old is the son? Well, doesn't say, but she had a child under third year of marriage. That's the only question you need to know is does this guy you had this affair and with want to have a new start with you. That's that's the problem. See you you want a lot of stuff, but ain't gonna happen. That's the delimba you have, the only delima you. I would suggest you go get a fresh start with this new guy. If the new guy won't you, does he know that's his baby? That's the other question. Exactly does the pastor know that he raising another man's child? Oh? Hello, if you want me to stay, what does that called for? That day? All right, we're moving on La Curtis and Lake Curtis and Jacksonville, says Curtis. You heard me.

My cousin is having marital issue, so he asked to stay in my RV one night after his wife put him out. I let him stay one night in it, and he left it a total mess. I could tell he had a woman in it, and it smelled like weed. I asked him to get it professionally clean, but he said it was like that before he got in there. I can't have my wife in there after some bimbo has stayed there. How do I handle this clo Well, I mean, first of all, you got to get it clean because you let your cousin stay in there. Your cousin trifling. He ain't gonna clean it, so, you know, which is the reason why he getting put out his own house anyway. And he come right over there and have another woman in there.
