You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn got to turn out to turn turn the water the water. Come come on your back, huh, I shall 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, Oh man, almost forgot I had one this morning. But I'm okay. I'll tell you who I am in a little bit. You know, I get around. Man, it's so much. But man, good morning everybody. You know today I was having a conversation with my wife last night and we were talking about our plans. You know, we often sit down, you know, just like a married couple. I mean, you know, you know we're married. You know, we have children, we have aspirations, we have hopes, we I mean, we have things we want. You know, when you're married, you know, I mean it's important to sit with your partner. I'm not telling you anything. You don't know, it's common sense. Really, it's important to sit down with the person that you've chosen and decided to share your life with it and have multiple conversations on a lot of things. And we try to make sure that all of our conversations aren't always just business related and always kid related, you know, because that that that becomes it's a part of it. But it weighs so much on the marriage that because that that's the grunt work of being married. You know, your children, your family, your bills, your your mortgage, your your car notes. You know though, what's due, what's coming up, and if you're not careful, you'll you'll start that becomes the focal point of you all's conversation. And this woman or man or person that you've decided to have this life with, all of a sudden, they're an extension of your business, and you guys become business partners or whatever, and and and it just gets so anywhere. I'm just saying that that is important to sit down and have these conversations, but it's even more important to have the other conversation, you know. It's it's important with the person that you're planning on making the run to sit down and talk about other things, you know, on a more upbeat note. You know, we were having a conversation that she was reminding me of what she loved about me, and then I, in turn, was turned around telling her the things that I admired about her and loved about her. And we kind of have these all the time, you know, when we sit down and we talk about the things that we still enjoy about one another, or we may talk about some of the things that we miss in one another. But we constantly had these conversations about appreciation. You know, It's so important man, that the other person feels appreciated. So these things are important. But we got into the conversation deeper last night, and I was telling her about this idea that I had and that I wanted her to help me with and make a phone call for me because she knows these people and I was going to be doing this, and then my wife reminded me of something not once again, you know, as always, you know, when I'm talking to you, I just keep it as real as I can. I don't know the Bible inside out. I can't quote to you scriptures and tell you exactly where it is. I just you know, I heard her say it, but it kind of blew by me. I was, I was telling about something I wanted to make happen, and she reminded me that there's a scripture somewhere, and somebody emailed it to me to day. I'm sure, Well, the Bible reminds us not to be anxious for anything. Don't be anxious for something. And you know, it really mattered to me at that point yesterday that she bought this to my attention, because how many times I've been guilty of that in my past and I've learned better now, but every now and then I need to be reminded, you know. And I think what that what she was saying to me was, you know, I've gotten to a point in my life, and we all should get to a point where. You know, you've heard old people say this, if you're gonna pray about something, then don't worry about it. And if you're gonna worry about it, don't pray about it. Back to this, be anxious for nothing, don't. If you're going to him trust in God didn't do that, and trusting in him means sometimes you got to be patient. God has never been too late. You don't know the plan he has, You don't know. You don't really always know his will. You definitely don't know his route, his way of doing anything. So he's always on time. He's always been there on time for me. He's always been there on time for you. How many times have you thought it was over only to find out it's really just begun. How many times have people wrote you off, those of you who have lost jobs but you are still maintaining. But man, God has already began to turn around process for many of us. Some of us lost jobs and now have better jobs. Some of us lost jobs and now has forced us to rekindle that dream and that vision for business we had. It's sometimes the mishap is the thing you need to make something good happen. See a lot of times we get so comfortable in our life where we we get complacent, We just settling in and when this is it and this is what I'm doing. But in actuality, God has a tremendous amount of abundance for you. He has an amazing amount of things. He has all these boxes packaged up with your name on him that he's willing to ship if you would just align yourself with some of his wills so you could get some of these things. How many times have you thought it was over and it didn't really go over. How many times have you thought, well, this is it and it wasn't it at all. Well, how many times do you thought, well, it don't look like this gonna work out, and it didn't work out, but then something better came along? How many times has that happened? You've got to realize this, man. I was talking to a family who had got displaced from the Katrina thing that happened down there in New Orleans. And Man, when they said, yeah, we got a displaced from Katrina, and I braced myself because the old wo was me, here comes this story. I gotta hear this, and I gotta be encouraging think of something. It was totally different. They totally totally blew me away. Man. The brother said, Man, is actually the best thing that ever happened to my family. And I went whoa And he said, yeah, man, he said, because what happened was, he said, I got settled in. He said, Plus, I was doing some things outside of my marriage down there, he said, I was doing some stuff in the streets. I ain't need to be doing. He said, Man, it all got washed away. We thought our life would never be the same. But he said, man, my life ain't need to be the same. He said. Man. Now we live up here in Texas, we got a house, don't know nobody, he says, I ain't got nobody I know to get into trouble with. He said, man, i'd't rediscovered my wife, how beautiful she really is, how much my family really was counting on me. And he said, man, it's straightened me up. Man, he says, so I gotta tell you, Steve, it was the best thing that ever happened to me. Now that's not always the case, but it's how you look at a situation. But just don't be anxious for anything, because God got a fix for you if you just let him work. So just stay on course, stay focused, don't lose faith, don't be anxious. Man, just just stay in the wheel. Let God work with you. He got some great stuff in store for you. You're listening show, ladies, and gentleman wants to Parliament that dreary as I parted week and really puzzled by a single query.

We know who that is, the Chief Love Officer, Steve Harvey. This one clo is from Elaine in Philly. Elaine writes, I am a mature woman in my husband and I are separated, so I started dating again. I'm having a great time going on dates and my husband has a problem with me because we live in a close knit suburb. But get this, We've been separated for six years and he won't entertain any conversation about divorce. He says he's trying to help me save my reputation. But I believe it's his ego that doesn't want me dating anyone else. I want to file for divorce so I can be free of him. Why is he hanging on to me? Why you letting you hang on? You don't need an agreement to get a divorce, You just need a divorce. Six years separated, living in a close knit community, you're dating and he talked about he trying to save your reputation more, you don't want me right and what is the reason for the separation? Always remember that, ladies, I'm trying to save your reputation. It's your ego, that's all it is. Why are you allowing this to happen? Go on about your business? You happy, go file on your own yet Now, a couple of telltale things in this set. I'm mature, I'm dating, and we live in a close knit community. This sounds like a senior citizen holder. That's what I pulled up out of that. So what they can date? Right? Yeah? A suburbs. It's a suburbs. Okay, he got retirement home out of that. Mature in the suburb, close knit suburbs. Don't try to throw me off with suburbs in the middle of the town, ain't it. I'm just, you know, showing you how I think you know you inside the mind? All right? Alicia moving on in Gary, Indiana, says, my forty five year old husban been his overweight and he hides food and snacks from me in the house. Since the pandemic, we've both been watching our weight and he stopped working out with me after he sprained his wrist. I've given him an ultimatum to either get back in the gym or we're not having sex anymore. He's more content with his cupcakes than with my body. If this is sign of a bigger problem in our marriage, or is he just addicted to food? Well, we got a couple of things going on. Yeah, I think he is addicted to food. I'm a little bit confused where you said doing the pandemic. Y'all was watching y'all's weight. I guess he was on. He is close enough that he was enjoying the movement. So obviously as he was watching his weight, he loved the expansion that was going on. The excuse for not working out was I hurt my wrist. I don't know what the hell walking got to do with your damn now had food. That's the fat boy syndrome. Yeah, that's the fat boy syndrome. Now let's talk about this. You told him that you weren't gonna have sex with him, Yeah, and that ain't move the needle. He chose the cupcake over you. He might like cupcakes better than he liked cookies. Oh, he like cupcakes better he liked cookie. Let's church say, hey, hey man, let's just move on. Okay, Malika and Richmond says, I'm twenty eight, my fiance is twenty nine years old. I was home Friday night, scrolling on Instagram, and I saw a live video from a jazz concert at the park and my fiance was in a tent with a bunch of people, male and female, popping bottles um. He told me he was going to hang out with the guys, and I trusted him. I called to let him know that I saw him and that I was hurt because he didn't invite me. He said it was his guy's night out. Uncle, Steve, do guys go to jazz concerts together? Or is he up to something? Izz killed the boy. I ain't never been to a concert with a dude. Well one time I did. Ain't gonna like date night.

Sweetest Steak, Sweetest Day Comedy Takeover. It's going down octop with the sixteen at Music Hall the Music Hall in Detroit, Michigan. That's Dominique Rodney Perry, Tommy Davidson's Guide Tory hosted by Yours truly me nephew Tommy sixteen Saturday Night take its own sale Detroit right now? All right, thank you, nephew. Coming up at the top of the hour Entertainment News. Right after this, you're listening to Steven show Bill Cosby is speaking out um he thinks R. Kelly got a raw deal. Cosby, who was just recently released from prison himself, believes that Robert Robert got a bad deal when he was found guilty in his federal sex crimes case. This week. Cosby spokesperson Andrew Wyatt says that Cosby said the guy was railroaded speaking of R. Kelly, and he blames famous women's civil rights a journey Gloria Alread and systemic racism. Alread represented alleged victims in both Cosby and Kelly's cases. Kelly is facing ten years to life when he gets sentenced. In may Or, Kelly tweeted a statement he said to all my fans and supporters, I love you all and thank you for all the support. Today's verdict was disappointing, and I will continue to prove my innocence and fight for my freedom. Hashtag not guilty what Well, here's here's a problem with Cosby's statement. I mean he mentored me, I mean he taught me a lot. So I'm speaking from a standpoint of all soul just hearing these statements. When you say that R. Kelly was railroaded and given a bad deal, you have to be careful with that statement, because I can assure you something has happened. And when you say that R. Kelly was railroaded and given a bad deal, you must take into consideration that there are some victims here, and you have no excuse when we are talking about children. Look, if two adults are consenting, that ain't none of them my business. That shouldn't be none of our business. But you can't get consent from a miner because a miner doesn't have the mental capability of processing everything that you're presenting to them in such an old, mature way in their young, underdeveloped mind. And we all know this as a fact. I just think he's got to be very careful about that man, because you can't say that Robert was given a bum deal and a bad rap and ignored the bum deal and a bad rap to these girls got stove And look, I got what you're saying about this attorney, And that was something that happened in the cause Be trial that caused this judge to come in. That's real, that really happened but you can't apply that peanut butter to his bread. You can't put that on him. You know, you cannot ignore the victims in this case, and it's too many. Yeah, they did a whole movie about it, Surviving document a documentary. It was a victim after victim over repeated behavior, so the same kind of behavior. They did the same thing to all of these women. Yeah, justice for the victim LA girls. You know we already said in the media. However, you know that we feel that people don't care about what happened to young black women and girls. So justice for them. And his statement R Kelly with the whole innocent innocence I'm still still be quiet, sir, Yes, innocence. You are you kidding me? You have more trials to go Chicago, This isn't over there, and ten years to life in this particular trial, he's got more, but he got to go two more times. Ye, So what does that tell you, Tommy? Repeated behavior in different parts of the country over see. Look, man, I know that attorneys to pile on I get that, I know attorneys to blost to that case. I know prosecutors have done some stuff to us in terms of systemic racism since we got here, we all are very familiar with that. But you can't give him enough real evidence to pile on the other evidence. Come on, you gave him too much real stuff. We got films. We have a woman this is going to get her mama out of a dough, and it's filmed and the girl wouldn't come out the dough and she talking to her mom in the hallway. That wasn't That wasn't reality TV. That was a documentary. Yeah, So to say he was railroaded Bill Cosby, Please, hey, when when R. Kelly did the interview with Gail King and when them two young girls sat down and R. Kelly would in the hallway clearing his throat, that was controllers and don't say and then the girls came to court and testified to that it was It's like, ojay, he wouldn't sit down and be quiet. Oh he's gonna say something tomorrow. Trust he's gonna say something to mow. Yeah, but you still won't shut up, that's right. And can't say something about Andrew Wyatt his person attorney. Are you for real or dog? You've got to be able to say to your client, Hey, man, I don't think this is smart for us to do this at this time. Well, you're Bill Coffee's representative. You have to be able to say that. Somebody got to be in your circle to say, Yo, man, you find to say what, Well, we don't know that. He didn't say it, and Cosby said what he said anyway, No, No, Cosby said this. Yeah, but Andrew Wyott, the attorney, the spokesperson, somebody in your camp gotta be able to say, dog, you find to say what. But what I'm saying is we don't know that. They didn't come mister Cosby to beat I know that, but he stid The quote came from Andrew Wyatt, and somebody got to say, man, we're not doing that. Yeah. I'm telling you, when you are, when you're famous, you gotta have people around you, man, that tell you the truth. If you don't, you're gonna let your fame, your ego getting your damn way. Like that's what's happening here. All right, We're gonna move on. Coming up for twenty minutes after the hour, we'll have sports talk with Junior Lebron James news Hunt.

Coming up at thirty four minutes after the hour tomorrow kicks off breast cancer awareness Monster Carl and I will talk to our girl R and B singer Jasmine Sullivan about the more Than Just Words initiatives sponsored by Novartis. Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. In twenty twenty, breast cancer was the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, while breast cancer screenings dropped drastically, Black women are at a greater risk of dying from breast cancer, and we know that early detection is key. Well, No, Vardas has a great initiative that promotes equality in breast cancer care, beginning with black women. The initiative is more than just words and joining us as a passionate breast cancer advocate to tell us all about it. Our special guest is a musical icon. She won Album of the Year at this year's BET Awards for her new album Hotels, and she's gracing the cover of the July August twenty twenty one issue of Essence magazine. She's an amazingly talented and oh so beautiful woman. Please welcome to our show the incomparable Miss Jasmine Sullivan. Oh my god, that was an amazing intro. I have to take you everywhere for the intro. Thank you so much, Jasmine. We know that you're very passionate about breast cancer awareness. You reveal last year that your mom battled inflammatory breast cancer for two years. So how's your mom's health. My mom is doing so much better. You know, we're taking it one day at a time. I feel like breast cancer you always you can never get too confident because you know you never know how things are going to end up. And I want to be conscious of the people who are still going through their diagnosis right now or they're getting you know, reoccurring diagnosis. So but she's doing really well. Early detection is the key. Yes, it is definitely the early detection is key, and especially for Black women. With these numbers, black women are approximately forty percent more likely to die of breast cancer. Just let's talk more about more than just words? Uh, this initiative give us a quick overview of more than just words. Yeah. So, More than just words is a Camp Pain partner with Nive artists that's committed to promote health equity and breast cancer and really just urge Black women to get mamograms and get screenings and to take care of themselves. And I'm passionate obviously because my mother was diagnosed a couple of years ago, but also because I love Black women and I think that we are the best things since life's bread and we have love you. I guess so, Jasmine, how is more than just words addressing this? Because this is action? So can you talk a little bit about that please? Yeah? So, more than just words is um campaigning with the leading hosts experts just about continuing these conversations talking to our family members, talking to our mothers and our aunties and our grandmas, because I feel like as a Black community, we don't talk a lot about health, and we have to because you have to know where you're coming from. You don't know where you're going. Absolutely, I think too in our community black women, the generations. You know, you talked about your grandma's and your untie's, Jasmine, and I think for us we get as black women, we put everyone else's needs before ourselves. Yeah. So one way they can find out information is by going to www dot more than just words dot us. I found out so much information that I didn't know even with experiencing it with my mother, I didn't know a lot about all these statistics that I've learned on the website. So definitely go there and like we said, just continue to have these conversations. One more time, go to more than just words dot us, more than just words dot us to find out more.

Dear Stephen Shirley, I am married to a man that was my king, and he messed it all up by having a female best friend. He didn't have a physical affair with her, but he had an emotional one, and he shared intimate details of our marriage, good and bad. Then he encouraged her to call me and have a talk with me about how unhappy he is in our marriage. When she called, I got so teed off that I invited her over. I made sure my husband wasn't home so I could drag her around my house by her dirty wig. She knew that I was crazy, so luckily for her, she brought her sister with her. There is no way I could handle them both. So I sat in my own house and listened to this woman tell me was lacking in my marriage and what irritates my husband. She went on and on for a few minutes, and her sister finally broke her silence and told her own sister that she had a lot of nerve to come up in my house to do to do that, and she ushered her out of my house. I yelled to the woman that I was still going to beat her tale if I see her out. My husband got wind of what has so called, but he did and he didn't come home. He texted and said he'd give me a day or two to cool off. In the meantime, I sent a group text to three of his closest friends with a video of how he's not equipped to deal with me in the bedroom. In the video, he wasn't able to perform and he was getting frustrated because his little man kept flopping around his friends all set, all sent laughing emojis, and said he'll never live this one down. I got revenge, so I'm cool. But he's furious and claims he had good intentions. He's not equipped to handle me in or out of the bedroom, and he shouldn't have told our business. Are we headed for divorce? Or can we move past this? Woo listen. I think if you get past this, it will be a miracle from God. Okay, it will be a miracle from God. You already know two wrongs don't make a right, and they absolutely do not. But what you did was so wrong and it was pretty much unforgivable. I mean, what he did was horrible too. I'm not letting him off the hook at all. He should not have shared your intimate details, none of that. Your husband was wrong to blast all that to his bestie. But at least all he did was run his mouth. You You disgraced and humiliated him by showing his private parts to his boys. I just don't see how there's any coming back from that or his little man. I said private parts, but you called it his little man. Huh. The only one who seems to have any sense in this whole letter is your husband's friend's sister, who checked her sister for being at your house and for disrespecting you, and then ushering here, ushering her up out of your house again. I don't know how you come back from something like this unless the Lord himself intervened. Otherwise. I think you guys are done and your marriage is over. Steve. I think it's something wrong with every single person in this letter, every single person in this letter, and I'll tell you why, and I don't I don't know what. This ain't gonna He's not equipped to handle me. This woman writes in says she's married to a man that was my king right there. If this was your king, and this is who you chose to marry, and this is how he is, and then this is how you treated him. I showed would hate to be your slave because this is how you treat the king. Lord ha mercy. This letter is doomed from the get go, y'all, but he messed it all up. By having a female best friend. Now, he didn't have the physical affair with him, but he's emotional. This fool. He shared intimate details of our marriage. He didn't say that. I'm saying that. He shared intimate details about marriage, good and bad. Then he encouraged her to call me and have a talk with me about how unhappy is in our marriage. Okay, how stupid is your king? How stupid is your king? Hate Fellas? What woman would you have call your wife to tell your wife what's wrong with her and how unhappy you are in your marriage? What man listening to this show would dude that stupid ass move like? I thought? Nobody? Okay? Cool? What she called? I was so teed off that I invited over. I made sure my husband wasn't home so I could drag around my house by her dirty wig. She knew I was crazy, so luckily for her, she brought her sister with her. Wow, now this is kind of crazy. What a housewife show? Is this? Because you going over another woman house to sit her down to tell her about what's wrong with her in her marriage. There's no she bought her sister with her. Luckily for her, she bought her sister women, and there was no way I can handle them both, so I said in my own house, and I listened to this woman tell me what's lacking in my marriage and irritates my husband. She went on and on for a few minutes, and then her sister broke her silence. Her own sister said she had a lot of nerve to come to my house and ushered her out of my house. But as something wrong with your sister too, though, because I wouldn't went over that with you in the first place. Wait a minute, hold up, sister, you cann't do what you finn't go over his house and tell her what's wrong with them? No, we not once again. You need some better people around you, like so we'll not come back. I'll tell you the rest of them. All right, we'll have part two if Steve's response coming up at twenty three minutes after subject He's not equipped to handle me, we'll get into it right after this. You're listening, all right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter, the subject he is not equipped to handle me. We didn't got to that part yet. Woman married to a man, she says, her keen, but he messed it all up by having a female friend. This dude has been telling this female friend everything about his marriage, good and bad, and then asked the female friend of his to go and talk to his wife for him and tell her what she's unhappy with in her marriage. This dumb woman calls up this man's wife arranges to meet with her, but she knowed a woman crazy, so she gets her sister to go over that with her. She gets over to the house proceeds to tell of the woman was wrong in her marriage, until her sister couldn't take it no more and told her you was wrong for coming over here, coming up in this house and ushered her out the house. I yelled to the woman that I was still gonna beat the tail when I see her out. Okay, this one who is mess right here? See you out where. My husband got well into what his so called buddy, this female friend did, and he didn't come home. And he texts and said he give me a day or two. The cool law that's because he know how crazy his wife is. He'd know if I go in here now, all hell gonna break loose. This is how crazy this woman is. But I mean, really, this sister right, yeah, well, you come up in my house talking to me about me and my man. I mean, she bosts have a problem. But the gall of this stupid so called best friend to go to this woman's house. But then the utter stupidity of the husband for asking her to go talk to his wife. It's so many fools in this letter. I don't even know where to go. Calm down, Stephen. Now here's where the letter take a dog turn. In the meantime, I sent him a group texting three of his closest friends with a video of how he's not equipped to deal with me in the bedroom. In the video, he wasn't able to perform, and he was getting frustrated because his little man kept flopping around. His friends all sent laughing emojis and said he'll never live this down. I got revealed, So I'm cool. I don't understand this group of people. I don't understand this group of people when you send a sex video out, lady, ain't you any I'm just I'm just curious. So now you have sent his video all his friends saying he ain't gonna leave us down. So now they've been to tease him. Now you say I got revenged, so I'm cool, But he's furious and claims he had good intentions. Then you say he's not equipped to handle me in out of the bedroom, and he should and that he shouldn't have told our business. Now you saying he ain't equipped to handle you in or out of bed room. Ain't nobody can handle you out of bed room? But in a minute ago he was your king, So king did something early on, someone was working to make you want to be queen all. Wouldn't nobody else ask your crazy ass to get him married? One of the things, are we headed for divorce? Or can we move past this? I don't like, Shirley said, I don't know unless you have an act of God come in here. I don't know where y'all think y'all going. Why y'all still want to be married? First of all, he's not married to his best friend. His best friend is another woman. Your man is so weak that he don't have enough sense or gumption to come and talk to you about his own marriage. You so crazy, he can't talk to you. She's so crazy she come over the house to talk to you. Her sister crazy because she came over here with the house but then her sister realized what it is was heading and at least had to common sense talk out. Now, you so crazy. You took a video on your man's little man and send it to his three friends. Now they're laughing at your man, and you figure I'm cool. Now I got revenge? How simple minded are y'all? It's bad? So this is the real Housewives of Green Metal Oaks, Insana Sila, because everybody and it's not it. It's crazy. Yeah, so, ma'am, I don't care that you hit it for divorce. I don't even see why y'all marriage. You don't have a marriage. He's not married to his best friend. You're not his best friend. You've been willing to do that to embarrass your man. He don't like you, he's scared of you. You crazy. Why don't y'all just go y'all separate ways? Yeah, make no damn sense? Yeah, man, stop writing us. Let's see, Steve. I don't know. I think the sister. I like the sister what she did. She may not have even told her why she was going over to this woman's house, but once she realized what was happening, then she said no, no, no, no, no no no, no, no, no, no, no no, come go with me over his wife's house. But she knew they were friends. They're best friends. The man and the woman is best friend. Right, That's what I'm saying. The sister knew that we're going over here for what because he wanted me to talk to her. No, no, no, We've done. Yeah. I mean the sister ain't ain't really the cause of the letter, at least's system. I guess after she realized what was happening here. We gotta get up at you. Maybe that's it. I don't like. We gotta go. Post your comments on Today's Strawberry Letter at Steve Harvey FM on Instagram and Facebook, and check out the Strawberry Letter podcast on demand. Coming up at forty six minutes after the hour from the Talk, our girl Cheryl Underwood. Right after this, you're listening to show coming up at the top of the hour, it's Carla's Reality Update. But right now, Steve, it is time to introduce our girl from the Talk. Let's good, That's what I'm talking about, Steve Harvey. Now, Steve, I got a question that's really directed toward you, Tommy and Julia, not Carlin Shirley. You know, I know, you know, we ladies of the group and everything, Monica, everybody, we are ladies. But I got a question directed toward the Fellas. But it's really something had to me. Okay, So the tire gauge in my car went off right, and I always panted anything to happen. I'm like, oh, I don't know what to do, right, because back in the day used to be like a shade tree mechanical dude, you go to and go, what's that mean? And then he would go, oh, that means slow leak or whatever. He's tired. But what it made me think about is how manhood seems to have changed when I grew up, because I didn't really realize how young my father was. My father was twenty one years old when I was born, but when we were little, we thought our uncles and everybody were older men, you know, like my uncle Clip saying, ain't just my dad was my dad's best friend. But it seems like manhood has changed. Then they got the study come out that says that college for women is sixty percent women going to college forty percent meant so then that is a discussion of our marriage pool, not saying that you got to marry somebody who went to college. But it just seems like the I don't know, outward aesthetic of being a man seems to be evolved in a different direction. You know, you used to had the dudes used a street news, but there was an honor to that. You used to had the hard working, regular go to work dude, and there was a stability to that. So, Steve, I want to ask you. I don't want to ask Tommy. I want to ask Junior. Do you feel that there's a different representation or nuanced to manhood? Steve, I'm asking you absolutely, Okay, absolutely true, And I believe that it is because I believe that it is because we have allowed our society to dictate and allowed for too many other versions of what manhood has always been to exist and to flourish and to accentuate it, and so therefore it has just created too many different angles and so now you don't really know or women don't really have a clear view of what it is anymore. And I feel for women because we don't give you a clear view of what manhood isn't anymore and what you can expect. Yes, yeah, how do you want to come back for the right you want to do that? Okay, well we do that? What not this one? When we come back next time? All right, Cheryl, We'll continue this next week. Part two coming up. This is good, thank you, and Carla's reality update coming up at the top of the hour right after this. You're listening show. All right, Tommy, she's here, introducer. Let's go.

This new revelation comes a week after his former executive producer at ABC News alleged in an our bed piece that she was touched inappropriately by Cuomo at a party back in two thousand and five. Supposedly, Cuomo grabbed her but at a Christmas party she was standing there with her husband and said, I can do this to you now that you're no longer my boss. Wow.

We know who that is, the Chief Love Officer, Steve Harvey. This one CLO is from Elaine in Philly. Elaine writes, I am a mature woman and my husband and I are separated, so I started dating again. I'm having a great time going on dates, and my husband has a problem with me because we live in a close knit suburb. But get this, We've been separated for six years and he won't entertain any conversation about divorce. He says he's trying to help me save my reputation. But I believe it's his ego that doesn't want me dating anyone one else. I want to file for divorce so I can be free of him. Why is he hanging on to me? Why you're letting him hang on. You don't need an agreement to get a divorce, You just need a divorce. Six years separated, living in a close knit community, you're dating, and he talking about he trying to save your reputation. Boy, you don't want me, and what is the reason for the separation? Always remember that, ladies, I'm trying to save your reputation. Dog is your ego, That's all it is. Why are you allowing this to happen? Go on about your business. You're happy, go file on your own. Yes, Now, a couple of telltale things in this set. I'm mature, I'm dating, and we live in a close knit community. This sound like a senior citizen holding. That's what I pulled up out of that. So what Yeah, suburbs and Thieves is a suburbs. Okay, he got he got retirement home out of that suburb. Close knit suburbs. Don't try to throw me off with suburbs of the town. I'm just, you know, showing you how I think you know beside demand. All right. Alicia moving on in Gary, Indiana, says, my forty five year old husband is overweight and he hides food and snacks from me in the house. Since the pandemic, we've both been watching our weight and he stopped working out with me after he sprained his wrist. I've given him given him an ultimatum to either get back in the gym or we're not having sex anymore. He's more content with his cupcakes than with my body. Is this a sign of a bigger problem in our marriage or is he just addicted to food? Well, we got a couple of things going on. Yeah, I think he is addicted to food. I'm a little bit confused where you said doing the pandemic y'all was watching y'all's weight. I guess he was on. He is close enough that he was enjoying the movement. So obviously as he was watching his weight, he loved the expansion that was going on. The excuse for not working out was I hurt my risk? I don't know what the hell walking got to do with your damn coming up? It is our last break of the day on this Thursday, and of course we'll have some closing remarks of forty nine minutes after from the one and only, our fearless leader, our captain of the ship, Steve Harvey, right after this. You're listening, all right? This is our last break of the day on this Thursday, last break. Yeah, um, yes and Steve, yes, what do you think of today? Well, I'm ready my closing remarks. Today, I'd like to talk to people about a question that's oftentimes asked with me. Steve, You always working, You always busy? What are you doing it? Why do you work like that? Why are you always how do you do this? How do you do that? And look, I'm not bragging here. I get the same twenty four hours that everybody else gets. I'm not awarded any more dayd daylight did nobody else? Sunrise for me just like it do for you. It's set for me just like you do for you. I don't get no extra I can't control time. The Bible says time and tide waits on no man, it ticks for me just like it ticks for you. What I want to offer everybody, though, is a way to look at this thing though, And it's a simple process. It's just called time management. You actually have a say, soul and what you do with the time that supported you. Now here's the upside. If God wakes you up in the morning, it is a sign that God is not through with you yet, which means that's still more for you to accomplish. Now, us being the human beings that we are in the creature that He created us to be in, the only creature that He gave complete total of choice. So now you get to decide what you do with this opportunity that's been given to you on a daily basis. I need your attention here. You get to decide what you do with this blessing called time that is presented to you every day. So stop looking around at what somebody else got, and always tell about how they do this, how they do that when you have your own set of twenty four to concern yourself with, and just maybe they gotta going on because they spending day twenty four a little bit different. So I invite you all to start controlling your time management. I'm inviting you all to start looking at how you go about your day. Now, I got the three ws I'm gonna talk to you about. It's the what you spend your time on, the way you spend your time, and who you spend your time with a whole That's the whole story, y'all. In time management, all you have to do is answer these three questions. What are you spending your time on? Where are you spending your time, and who are you spending it with. It's the what, where, and who of time management that I've started to concern myself with that began to change my life. See, what are you committed to? What activity occupies your mental space, what activity occupies your daily space? What are you committed to? If God has given you this blessing of waking you up every day because He has yet more for you to receive. Ask yourself a simple question, what are you doing to move yourself in a direction to receive what God has done for you, this incredible blessing called this gift of life? What have you done today? Oh? I know people don't like hearing this, but all you got to do is ask yourself what am I gonna do today? Where am I going today? And who I'm gonna spend my day with, and watch at the end of the day, you can determine whether you're moving forward, sideways, standing steel or going backwards. Or you can even just determine if you ain't going nowhere. But people have to be honest with they self. And this ain't me saying I got it all together and this is me talking to me all the time. I got to constantly monitor my time management, what occupies my mental space and what occupies my daily space. If you hang with people and all they do is gossip, guess what You're gonna be a gossiper. If you hang with people that's always talking about business, you're gonna discuss business. If all the friends you hang out with are only into physical fitness, and that's it. You're gonna go to the gym. You got to go to gym. If everybody you hang out with shoot dice and gamble, guess why y'all gonna be someone shooting dice and gambling. That gambling is win some, lose some, but it's mostly loose song not hard it is to become a professional gambler because you don't control enough of that situation. So that's what you do. That's why you end up, and that's who you're running with. Y'all. You got to change the way you manage your time. You got to start caring about this day. You got to quit letting me all these days slip by where you ain't doing nothing to progress yourself. You're not doing anything to make yourself better. You gotta stop that. Come on, man, God is inviting you to a life of abundance, and he invites you to this life of abundance by waking you up. Every day. It's a fresh invitation. Every day you got a ticket to the ball. Waking up is like having a ticket to the ball. Every day. You get to go to the met gallat every day you're invited. Now this gallot that you attend is up to you. You have to determine what you're gonna do today, where you're gonna spend your day, and who you're gonna spend your day with. You have to say so with that people has locked up.
