Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all back a suit on, looking back to back down, giving the move like themaking buck bus things and its cubs. True good at Steve har listening to movie together for Steve. Please, I don't join joining me. You gotta use turning them. You gotta turn to turn, got to turn out to the water, the water. Come come on your back that it h h, I sure will. Good morning everybody. Y're listening to the voice, come on dig me now wanting only Steve Harvey man old man, got a radio show. Yeah, I do. God so big to me, man, I just have to tell you about it. I can't help it. It's rather obvious to me how big, how good God is. He's absolutely tremendous. He's off the chain. He owned one. He'd be clowning, he'd be just showing out. Man. I'm just over here, just on receiving it. You know, if you're out there, start your mission today, Start your mission today? What are you waiting for? Why do we as people delay what we want or delay the process to begin what we want? Our hopes, our dreams, our desires. Why won't you start your mission today? Why don't we all decide together that just individually. Look you listening, you got something that you've been dreaming about. You got an ambition of yours that's not yet fulfilled. You got goals you haven't accomplished yet. Everybody has them. Everybody's got them. Everybody's got something that's that's on the table that they haven't yet attacked yet. What are you waiting for? Start your mission today? Stop the procrastination now. The procrastination is only hurting you yourself. And if you and if you allow practical excuse men, if you allow procrastination to set in, then that that allows then which is a weakness, you know, but that allows the devil then to just really do his thing, because an idle mind is the devil's playgrounds. If you ain't working on your goals, dreams, aspirations or visions, and you're just waking up seeing how today gonna go, or the devil he got plenty for it for you to do your thing about God is he's so forgiving that if you get out of line, he'll hold your place. See that's the real cool thing. But see the thing with God is God don't do that. God don't say the line, start back here. God holds your place. When you make a mistake and you fall off the line, God holds your place. But if you ain't got no dreams, aspiration, if you ain't got no place, what he holding for you? See, I mean he got a place for you, but you gotta come to him. See some people if well, here's what I'm saying. If you got a goal or aspiration or dream and you fall off track momentarily, you can get back to that because God knows where you're left off. Now you may have to accomplish a few more things since you stop for a long period of time, but God know where you left off, you can get back on track. I look, man, and this dream of being on TV since I was a kid, and it got off track, now it got off track. I just kept it as one of the dreams. And in some real dog moments when it looked like it wasn't gonna happen, all I was hanging on too was just the hope that one day it could. But that's what faith is really about. Faith is the belief in things that you cannot see. But faith gives you the confidence to keep hoping. Man, Sometimes it just keep hope alive. Sometimes you heard Jesse Jackson said, just keep hope alive. Sometimes, Man, it's just the hope. I was hanging on the hope. And I'm talking about when it got real ugly and funky out there for me, when it looked like I wasn't gonna ever make it, and all of the facts was in and everything pointed in the direction you're not gonna make it. You didn't really messed up this time. Then I sat there and I just hung on to the hope. But man, that's what I'm saying. If you got a dream on aspiration of vision or something, when you fall off track and you want to go get back in line, God holds your place. See he held on to that fum me. He knew I was off tracking how the line, but he said, okay, here's where we stopped. You want to be on TV that when you get it together and you quit tripping and you come in your turn to me, I'm gonna hold your place, put you back in line. Then we're gonna finish your journey. That took me a lot longer to get here than I wanted to, but then it was necessary because I needed all of the mishaps to happen to me along the way. So when I got on the radio one day, which I did not see coming, Steve Harvey got a radio show, y'all. That's why I say it every day. See, because of this radio show that I didn't see coming. Now I have stories to tell, I got experiences to share, and I can tell you about me better than I can tell you about anybody. And I haven't been through enough where it's relatable, where enough people can go. Man, that happened to me. Appreciate you saying that that's what it was for. See, I get it now. See at the time, though I didn't, I didn't like what was happening to me. At the time, I was really in total disagreement with God on a lot of stuff He was pulling off on me, but in essence, I was really pulling it off on myself. But through his grace and mercy, he kept me through all of my mistakes, all my bad decisions, all my miscalculations, all my misfires, all the times I knowingly stepped out there indeed wrong. He forgave me, He said, because man, if you ever come to me, I have a plan for you that it's going to be far and above. It will supersede everything you've ever dreamed of. That's what I did. I just got sick of me, good and sick of me, and I turned it over to God. And then God started working, and here I am today now as he threw it me. Yet Nope, Have I arrived jet Nope? But guess what the journey is cool? You know. It's like I was talking to this young brother the other day about comedy. He's really good stand up. You know, this young dude is really good. He said, Man, what is this I feel every night before I go on stage. I don't know what it is. I just wanted off me, I said, sir, listen to me, you young dude. This thing that climbs on my back every night before I go on stage. I don't know what it is. It's got something to do with pressure, It's got something to do with anticipation. It's got a whole lot to do with the fear of falling. He said, what you mean by that? I said, every night I walk out on stage, it's like I'm about to go and step off a cliff. I said. It's a sickening feeling. He said, man, but you do so well. I said, that's because the parachute opens. I say, but I want you to understand something. When I first walk out there, it's just stepping off the cliff. Now, these joe provide a parachute which slows my descent when I jump off the cliff, and I turned it into a glide. And then I take the audience this way and I swing them back over that way. We might swing out to the Colorado Rockies. We may go down to Miami with this joke. We may take it on out to la and I just swing back and forth till I land softly. The crowd cheers. The night is over with, I said, but it's been too many nights though. When I walked off that cliff and I pulled the cord in, the parachute didn't open. I said. Now I'm just free falling out there for thirty minutes. Ain't no jokes working, Ain't the parachute didn't open. I said, So see that's what it's like for me. And then you know what I found out. If you didn't walked off the cliff in life, and you ain't got no God in your life, it's like not having a parachute. You step off the cliff and you just free falling. Now see we all Now that fall gets you closer to the grave, right, see all head into the grave from the moment we're born. But the cool thing about a relationship with God is when you step off the cliff and you got God here a parachute. You're still going down, but it's a nice ride, and God just helps your your descent appear more like a rise and then more like a euphoric fall. Instead of not having no God in your life and you just walking off that cliff every day free falling. Ain't got no core, You steady pulling, you hauling the whole way because you've messed around with yourself, and ain't let God come into your life and provide a parachute for you. I would rather have a parachute since I got to jump every day than to not have one. God has been like a parachute from me. Ask me why where that came from? I can't tell you, But like I always say, most good things that happened in my life that I can't explain, it's usually him. You're listening show Ladies and Gentlemen, The Boys and the Girls Chitlings and heavy all Hall, the Malls and Linguini. This is is Steve Harvey Morning Show.

You know the brothers who claimed they were paid by Jesse Smollett to stage the racists and h homophobic attack on him. Remember those guys. All right, Well they're suing Jesse Smallllett's lawyers not Jesse Smollett, but his lawyers. They're suing uh Jesse Smaallllett's lawyers for defamation. Ola and abel Asandaro have filed suit in Chicago against Mark Carrigos and Tina Glendian, claiming that Smallllett's legal team have gone on TV and told lies about them and accused them of being real attackers who acted alone, being the real attackers who acted alone. So there, now what you don't want to do it? Really, may Ola Maya for real? Okay, have you seen theirs on all right? Now? That was a fake whoop in the first time. Yeah, it's not the real whop?

All right, Well, the brothers say the lawyers have spread lies about them and caused emotional distress, humiliation, and loss of job opportunities. Small let Jussie was cleared of wrongdoing in the incident, which leaves unanswered but about what happened unanswered questions about whatever what actually happened. In a statement today, the brothers lawyer said, we have sat back and watched lie after lie being fabricated about us in the media only so that one big lie can continue to have life. These lot That was kind of telling right there, that sentence. Um, these lives are destroying our character and our reputation in our personal and professional lives.

Everyone doesn't read the Bible. Everyone doesn't. Everybod I don't read one with week about everybody doesn't. Everybody doesn't read the Bible and I'm not trying to and other entertainment news. Family and friends are concerned about Britney Spears. You know, there's been really some concern about her mental health lately. Yeah, oh yeah. She continues to seek treatment at a mental health wellness facility. Her boyfriend h says she is doing fine and nobody needs to worry about her condition, but her family is worried. She did post a video on Instagram and she does not look well. Brittany is struggling with dealing with her father's illness. Her father is sick right now, and there's also a hashtag Free Brittany. Her fans are saying that she's been being held against her will, but her boyfriend said that, you know, don't worry about her. That's that's not the case. She doesn't look well. I saw that. Yeah, she was social media, but they said it was something wrong with the cocktail of meds that she's taking. But anyway, we gotta get out of here. Let's go to headlines now, Steve, Ladies and gentlemen, miss Anne Tripp, thank you very much everybody, and good morning. This is Andrew Tott News and Bottom of the Hour, and here we go. Democrats disagree over whether to move forward with impeaching Donald Trump, with some like Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren pushing forward, while others like Vermont Senator to Bernie Sanders, using caution. I do believe that the evidence is just overwhelming that Donald Trump has committed these offenses, and that means we should open proceedings in the House and then the House can take a book. What do I worry about is that works the Trump's advantage. But now how Speaker Nacy Pelosi is urging more investigation over impeachment. Iowa state Representative Andy McKean is announced that he's fed up with Donald Trump, so he's leaving the Republican Party and becoming a Democrat. McCain, who was first elected to the Iowa legislature forty years ago, calls Trump a bully who quote creates a breeding ground for hateful rhetoric and actions on a quote, and McKean also says that the GOP has swung much too far to the right. The man who was sent doug pipe bombs to prominent Democrats and critics. President Trump says he abused steroids for years, but after attending his first Trump rally, he felt he found a new drug. Caesar Saark, though, says he's through a politics. He calls politics dirty, ruthless, and deadly. Caesar Sayak faces ten years in prison when he's sentenced. The Supreme Court has been hearing arguments concerning the Trump administration's idea to add a citizenship question on the next US census. Three lower courts have already blocked the plan. However, the mostly Republican appointed High Court is expected to support the idea, and the justice's ruling could ultimately affect how many seats that states get in the Congress, how many electoral votes that they have for president, and how much each state gets in federal the money. More than a year after the school massacre in Parkland, Florida, Florida sent it yesterday passed the bill that allows classroom teachers to be armed. The vote in favor of the measure fell basically along party lines. In fact, only one Republican senator and a tier Flores of Miami, actually kept it from being a complete GOP washwen she voted against it with all the Democrats. A county in Oregon has agreed to pay one hundred thousand dollars to a black employee who sued a co worker who put up a Blue Lives Matter banner. Karema Pedicure allegend her January suit that the Blue Lives Matter flag demeans the Black Lives Matter movement and that she was subjected to constant, stressful harassment from her colleagues after she brought it up. As part of the agreement, she gets the money, but she has to resign from her job. They say she could apply for another one. Yeah, and finally, today is National School Bus Day. Back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to show. All right, guys, the moment we've been waiting for. Former Vice President Joe Biden is set to announce he is, Yes, Yes, he is entering the twenty twenty president dential race. Vice President Biden will enter this crowded democratic field new controversies could also provide a challenge to Biden's candidacy, including some women who say that he made them feel uncomfortable in past interactions by touching them without their permission. Biden posted a video acknowledging that social norms are changing and promising he would be much more mindful, calling it his responsibility. So, Steve, what do you think of the marathon of the CNN? Well, what do you think of Joe Biden? First, let's get to that. You can't you can't excuse what you've done. You can apologize, but it's done. Yeah, you know, he can apologize, you know, now we can either accept his apology or not. But they let Donald Trump do way more than that. Ye. Now, that don't make it right? Their liars, look at her. Why would I come on? Really? Yeah? I mean that's where he doubles down on everything right now. If I were picking, I would go Biden and Camela Kamala Kama Camello played going him too, I picked him. I picked Camelo over Elizabeth Warre. All right, So, um, and let's stay political for a moment here, Steve. Uh, you know, there was a CNN town hall meeting yesterday with Democratic candidates. U. I watched a Yeah, well what did you think Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Amy Clover shar and Bernie Sanders. What do you think? What did you think of all of that? Amy clover Shaw can hang it up right now? Yeah, don't nobody know her? Know her? Okay, I'm just telling you real. You gotta put together somebody that can beat Donald Trump. Amy, ain't finn to whoop Donald Trump? Now? Why ain't nobody gonna tell that truth? But me? That's truth. I'm not voting for Amy. You voting for tell the truth. If she becomes, then the Democrats' death, she bet not be the candidate because you might as well hand it to Trump. So you're saying, Biden, So you want someone in the Democratic Party Trump? Yeah? Who expition? All right, we gotta put together a ticket that wins. Yeah, all right, well he when he announces tomorrow. You're listening to show, all right, Steve? Before we left off, I had asked you what did you think of the Marathon town hall meeting that CNN had a couple of nights ago with all the Democratic candidates, not all of them, they probably would still be going on if there were all of them. Yeah, so many. I think the Democrats should do what I've come to the conclusion of and what is that we need to pick two to four favors. Let's quick playing this game with these other people that don't nobody know that to be given a fair chance, because the Republicans are not going to play fair, and we're gonna have to start doing this politics just like they do it. They play dirty, and all we're trying to do is take the high row this politics. We ain't talking about Christian behavior. We're talking about politics and dirty with it. They lie, they protect Trump. Trump lies repeatedly. Fox don't mention now wanted to lie stand powers. So now what we're going to do is be this open party of Democrats and we're gonna allow all sixteen these people canned parade and cross the stage. And we ain't got time for that. But Steve, Now, the primaries and when they start next year, they will narrow a lot of these people down. Then a lot of these people will start to get out of the race. It's gonna stand. Yeah, it's gonna start dwindling down. I mean, now it's fair game for everyone who wants to run. I mean you know, you could run. Anybody can run. That is our democratic system. It just is this stupid. Let me tell you what Donald Trump is doing. Donald Trump is making head. He's gonna keep talking about the economy has turned around. He's gonna talk about this new prison reform bill that he passed. He's gonna talk about the tax credits he gave people. Yeah, he's gonna tout a few more jobs and came back to America. He gonna heep influencing his base about that wall. He gonna continue to ban on the seven Muslim country and it's going to appear, and then the gross national product gonna be up to him, such as such a percentage. He gonna take credit for that. The whole time, the Democrats are doing nothing but talking about impeaching him. The Muller re pot he lied. That may not have been collusion, but there's definitely obstruction of justice. Yeah. Yeah, they need to get serious, and we don't have We don't. We can't wait on the primaries because you gotta remember, the Republicans won't have primaries this year. They're gonna run Donald Trump again. So while we're all fighting it out in the primaries, Trump gonna be steady marching towards the White House again. We need to stop this foolishness. Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer need to sit the party down and go, hey, listen, guys, Well, she is against the impeachment. She she's saying, let it go. Nancy Pelosi is now she is doing that and she has she's saying it. Yeah, and she has been saying we have to beat him the old fashioned one. Yes, and she's she knows how to do it. You know, she's smart. Yeah, she's very smart. Have you all been watching seeing you? Yeah? Are you watching what the Democrats are doing? Yeah? They're not listening to her, right, We don't know they're not. Yeah, And there's and there's not a lot of new blood you know, in the Democratic Party too, with the with the most recent elections. So they're you know, on their own path and doing their own thing, thinking you know that the older Democrats don't know what they're talking about and stuff like that. They're you know, these new people are trying to do it their way. So you're absolutely right, they're not listening. They're not. Lad, don't wise up and get rid of this foolishness and sit all these candidates down and go let's stop this. You know they're not voting for you. You know they're not voting for you, and you know they ain't finding vote for and as so we can put fold people in these primaries and then we're going to side. I'm telling you, man. If we don't get like that, listen to me, Donald Trump will be back in that White House. Well you're not all right, all right, we gotta get out of here now.

We could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're gonna read this one right here today. Michael up, Hold on tight, we got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter. Subject and the wife or the other woman. Dear Stephen Shirley, My husband and I have been married for two years when we met, he told me that he and his ex wife have a great system of co parenting their two children. I did not have a problem with that. I love his children, and I met his ex wife early on, so everything was fine in the beginning. After my husband and I got married and bought a house, the ex wife rented a house down the street from our home. I was livid, but my husband was thrilled that his children would be closer to him, so he could spend more time with his daughter and take her to school every morning. His daughter is in high school and his son as a freshman in college, but he and his ex wife talked daily like the children are still toddlers. She has a great job that requires a lot of travel, and my husband usually takes her to the airport and picks her up when she lands. I know she has money for uber or a taxi. My husband will go to her home on any given day to put up a mailbox, move some furniture around, get her mail when she's out of town, et cetera. Whenever I get upset and question him, question his motives, or complain about how much time he spends doing things for her, he gets upset with me. He claims he is only doing these things to make sure his children's home is as nice as his. The ex wife has no boundaries, and my husband does not see anything wrong with his behavior. At this point, I am ready to let him go so he can be with his family full time. He says that he is committed to our marriage and he will never get back with his ex. So am I wrong? I refuse to keep feeling like the other woman in our marriage. I have thought about talking to his ex wife and letting her know how I feel. What do you think? Please? Help? Wow? I think this is crazy. This is not a marriage. This is not any marriage I know about. Your husband takes his ex wife to the airport and picks her up when she lands. What you go along with that? Really? He says he's committed to your marriage and he'll never get back with his ex. Well, this sure doesn't sound like it in this letter, And you ask are you wrong? You're definitely not wrong. Okay, I'm with you all the way in this. You're right. And to answer your question the subject, am I the wife or the other woman? You're absolutely the wife and you've got to know that though ex wife is out of line. Your husband is out of line. He's allowing her to disrespect you and your marriage under the guise of co parenting the children. Okay, who are really almost grown? Okay, he's disrespecting you because when you try to talk to him about this, how you know, unhappy you are with it? He gets upset with you. What is he getting mad at you for? He is your husband? What's wrong with you? Don't take from him? Okay, You've got to stand up for yourself. You have to let your husband know that he's got a choice. And yes, right here, right now, I'm talking ultimatum her, are you? That's the bottom line, her or you. You don't have to talk to her about anything. It's it's the marriages between you and your husband you need to deal with and talk to him. Steve, this letter crazy, Yeah, this letter is damn crazy. How getting way with idiot? Is? Who he married too? Who are you? Where you come from? You got a system? Why was y'all raised this way? I don't even understand this. Y'all ain't been married but for two years when y'all man, he told you he and his ex wife got a great system of co paring their two children. You didn't have a problem. You love his children. You met his ex wife early on, so everything was fine in the beginning. What right there again? See you meet my ex wife. Damn that to you right now now. I was at my daughter's wedding, sitting between both of them. This letter is not about you. Did sound like any beginning? Anything sound like me? I get it out. And after my husband and I got married and bought a house, the ex wife rented a house down the street from my home, right down the street I was living. Oh no, this health fuck didn't right down right down the damn street. I know this healthful ain't moved. Huffine ass right down the street and holding these babies over my head and got my husband hostage. But my husband was thrilled that his children would be closer to him, so he could spend more time with his daughter and take her to school every morning. She at high school. We'll take a high school student to school every day. Everybody do that high school bus. Yes, my daddy gave me a right to school rain one time. All right, I let that go. His daughter's in high school and his son a freshman at college. But here and his ex wife talked daily about what exactly did you know that? Really you and your husband or you and your wife don't really talk daily like talk talk, not every damn day. Every day can't call for open discussion, not every damn them no mean riddly, Come on now, let's stop. Hey good, I'm good. I love you, love you. That's it, see you tomorrow. Nah man hell nah? Who Newly they talk daily? Him and the ex wife talks daily. Not him and the wife they talk daily like the kids are still toddlers. She got a great job to quite a lot of traveling. My husband usually takes her to the airport and picks up when she left. Asked the line, I want to get that. How did he do that? What did he say to you to make you be all right with this? So I want to use that. What did he say? Baby? All us men out here, we want to know what did he say that he can take his ex to the airport and pick her up when she lives? All right? Hold that thought, Steve. We'll have part two of your response coming up at twenty three after the hour Today's Strawberry Letters subject am I the wife or the other woman?

A gofund me campaign was created by the Seventh District Baptist Association a week ago, and before Tuesday they had only raised one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

When I was filling out applications and later, well, I worked down at the college on maintenance from midnight to four am. H Well, I wanted to work in the kitchen so I could eat.

All right, coming up our last break of the day and then some closing remarks from the one and I don't least Steve Harvey right after this. You're listening, all right, Steve. Here we are last break of the day. It is time for your closing remarks. First of all, to date is a dear friend of mine, Cedric Entertainer's birthday. I'm saying a happy birthday to said, but I'm also saying thank you to said a lot of major parts of my career have been with this guy. And of all the years that I've known Cedric, Cedric and I have never had a fallen out, never had mixed words. Never, Hey man, I misunderstood what you said. I thought you did this or man, my bad, I thought you said that. Hey man, forgive me. We never had them words. Just been a good guy to me, man, And like I said, we've had some major moments together. I gave him his first headline date at a club called Vookoo Read Hollas, Texas. I used to bring him in as a headline at my comedy club, Steve Harvey's Comedy House in Dallas, Texas. When I got the TV show The Steve Harvey Show. I was originally supposed to do the show with George Wynn, the guy that played Norman on Chairs, but I insisted they bring in Cedric. They said, we have no idea who this guy is. I said, man, this dude is so funny, man, and we're really cool. We weren't even as good a friends as we are today. But they said, all right, we're bringing in and tried said killed it so we did seven seasons of The Steve Harvey Show, Steve Hoddtower coach Robinson, and during that time kings of comedy were born. And Man, I couldn't have done it with a better brother. So we spent seven days a week together. We did the show Monday through Thursday, and we was on tour Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and we would come in, Man, and we was burning that candle on both ends and in the middle, and we had some great times. Man. Cedric is one of the funniest people I've ever met. Man, I've ever set and genuinely talked to an incredibly funny person, but just an incredibly kind person. Man. It's one of the coolest people I know. Man. And now he's the father husband. He's just doing it. His success on television is outstanding. His movies have all been good. And I've just watched him and I'm saying all of this to get to one thing. This is a message for everybody. I watched Cedric's career right now, Man, and it's at the superstar status. I just watched the person man who never gave up. I watched the person grind and hustle, grind and hustle, grind, and hustle. And I can't tell you, man, how good it is to see a person's hard work pay off. Everybody can take a page from that and learn a lesson and know that it requires an all out effort from all of us to be happy and be successful in his life. But in your quest to be happy and successful, and you're all out assault, the one thing you can never do in this assault is quit. You just can't quit, man, because you don't never know where the turn is coming. You don't ever know when God gonna click the switch. But if you've asked him for it, and you believe in it, and you've written it down like the Bible ask us to, if you follow those principles of success, everything you ask for will come to pass at its appointed time. That's the part you've got to lay hold to that what you ask God for, he is shipping to deliver to you. The problem with the package that God ships to us, he never gives us to date that the package will rise. If he did, that would destroy his faith in him, It would destroy our faith in him. He requires our faith, our belief in him. Faith is the belief in things that you cannot see. So when you ask God for something and he ships the package for you and he don't tell you the date that's gonna ride arrive, he's asking you to see if you believe in something that you can't see, that you don't know when it's gonna get that, but you have no doubt that it will. That's the part, and you've all got to hang on to faith. Faith is a substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. Faith really starts out with just hard hoping, y'all. You just gotta hope in something so hard that it finally comes true. That's the essence of faith. It's just hard hoping until you become hard hoping enough to where you go. You know what, I ain't hoping no more. I believe this because I've learned that from hoping as a little child. I hope I get a bite for Christmas, going down there one year and it was under the tree. But I've learned from that that this hoping has to eventually if you got sense to turn into a belief. You gotta believe, man, You gotta believe that you can. Once you believe that you can, if your mind can conceive it and your heart can believe it. That is a strong possibility you will achieve it. One more time. If your mind can conceive it and your heart can believe it, there's a strong possibility you will achieve it. Them three things got to be in sinc though, Man, you gotta sink, got to use your imagination in your mind to see what it is, and in your heart you got to believe it. And to that, man, it's achievable. You can receive it, but you got to get at it. Man, never give up, y'all. Don't ever ever give up. I don't care what happens because you don't know when God go click this switch. I said all that to say, happy birthday, said entertainer, my man, living legend boy. I appreciate you, man, thank you for everything you've done from my career. I appreciate you. That was so nice, Happy birthday, said that was so nice. That was from the heart sick.
