Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all have a sun giving them like the million bucks things and the stuffing not to be true. Good oft listening to the mother, I don't join jo. You gotta use that turn you, you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn you got to turn them out. Turn the water the water got come, come on your thing, I show will a good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice I said, come on now, I dig me the one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, Now, I'm gonna be really honest with you this morning. I really don't know what to say. I really don't. I was sitting here and I was thinking, what do I say today. I do know that I want to be encouraging, uplifting and inspirational in some way to affect somebody today. Oftentimes, these conversations that I have in the mornings, they're designed with me because I needed myself, y'all, to be honest with you. I mean, you know who who makes the comedian laugh? I used to say all the time. And even though what we talk about in the morning is not a laughing matter, it kind of like is it's who I am today? You know, I need motivation in my life sometimes myself. I think when I get in moments like this, I often resort back to the same thing over and over and over. And when I find myself in certain predicaments, I can always fall back on the same thing over and over. So while I'm sitting here trying to figure out what to say to you, the one thing that I did do this morning that I find to be very consistent in me is that I find myself grateful. I'm ever grateful for the things that God has done for me. I may not always know what to say, but I know how to say thank you, I do. I know how to remember and reflect back on where I come from. I know how to realize where all my blessings come from. I'm very very conscious of my journey that I've been on, though, the one that was from then until now, that journey right there is it's been. It's been. It's been. It's been difficult, man, it really really has. I ain't gonna lie to you, um me, becoming successful was very difficult. But as hard as this is to say, I really really mean this. I wouldn't change nothing about the trip I've been on number one, because I can't change anything about it. So I never lived my life and regret. But the main thing is was I discovered along the way now, not doing the process when you're going through rough moments that you can't hardly see the good in it at the time. It's just rough for you and it seems unexplainable, and oftentimes I thought it was unfair. But as I am now, I needed every single thing that happened to me, that happened to me to happen to me. I hope that makes sense to you. I needed everything to happen in the exact order and the exact way that it happened in order for me to be the person that I've become. And that right there, man is just very comforting to me. Missus Jakes told me one time, he said, the closer you get to God, the more friendly you all become, the more He will reveal to you the how it comes and the what fays of a lot of things has happened to you. Because a lot of times what troubles us is we just can't understand why we lost that love one back then. We just can't understand why we didn't get what we wanted back then. We just don't understand how come our plan didn't work out and we had to fail so miserably back then, we don't understand the answers to these things. Well, the closer I've gotten to God, the more of those explanations have become crystal clear to me. And See, the one thing that I came to the realization everybody is that the things that was happening to me, they wasn't really all bad. They really wasn't that they didn't taste good. When it was happening, I didn't enjoy what I was going through. But as I look back on him and reflect now, it wasn't all bad. Some of those things was so necessary for me to get the information because say, I don't know about you, but I'm kind of hard headed and stubborn. I said, I don't know about you, but I'm kind of hard headed and stubborn. I kind of like to think that I know something about some things every now and then, and the things I am convinced about it. I don't really really care for people trying to talk me off mine, so I can be stubborn and hard headed sometimes God knows that about me, So I think to get some of the messages crystal clear through the me that I needed to learn. That was this process I had to go through. That process was my journey, It was my trip, It was my WOA, my pain. Say, everybody got them different, It don't matter what it is. Everybody got a WOA, everybody got a pain, everybody got a trial, everybody got some tribulations, everybody got some challenge. I don't care who you are, duds, Quit looking at me thinking that I got it going own so tough man. But if Steve, yeah, it's easy for you to say that, but you ain't here. You don't know. Wow, Ben, if you would stop hanging yourself up on your pass, worrying about your woes and your troubles and the situation you in, and start praying and start asking God to get you through it. See a lot of times you messed it. You messed a message up yourself, because when you're going through some stuff, you ask God to remove it and take it away. That ain't the lesson. You got to learn your lesson sometimes it's it's gotta be how to be strong, how to see it through, how to bear under it. How to carry that weight long distances for long periods of time. That's how you get strong The lesson is to make you stronger. But to make you stronger, you got to carry the weight. You can't get stronger. You're gonna go to gym or you're gonna do something at your house to lift your own body weight. See, a lot of people can't even do push ups down. They can't get down, And then the course of a day, give you a hundred push ups because they ain't. They ain't, they ain't never try to daybody. They get to twenty and that shake it so bad they stop. Who that's too much for me. Well, let me tell you something. So I learned to quit praying to take stuff away. My prayer became to give me the strength to handle it. People oftentimes ask me, how do you do all that you do in the course of the day. I don't really know. I just know I can because I know God don't put more on you than you can back. So when you ask me how you do all of what you do in the course of the day, I got God. God is good. He'll get you through whatever it is you're going through. So when you're tripping in you don't know what to say. Reflect and be grateful for all you reflect on. Think about God's goodness and watch what He do for you. That's the cold part. Okay, you're listening show, ladies, and justin. The voice you are about to hear is that of Roscoe Wallace, an old lounge singer that was alive and well and born somewhere in the nineteen forties.

So, and even stranger news guys, a white man named David Duval sued his former employer after he was terminated. He alleged he was fired because he is white. And get this, he was awarded ten million dollars in his lawsuit. Now. According to NBC News, David Duval, a white hospital executive, was fired back in twenty nineteen and alleged he was fired without reason as part of an intentional campaign to promote diversity in its management ranks. He also alleged he was fired because of his sex and gender. Duval testified that he was fired just before his fifth anniversary with the company, where he would be entitled to a larger severance package. He says he was replaced by a black woman and a white woman. Duval also stated at the firing violated part of the Civil Rights Act. The Winston Salem, North Carolina based company Novant Health denied the allegations and maintained that Duval was fired for inadequate performance and for delegating critical tasks to those he managed.

You're listening, all right, everybody, Oh, we're back in our special guests on the phone is a New York Times bestselling poet, author, entrepreneur, and they're gonna flat out damn Soul single Come on here, boy, come on here skip Neo Soul and all that damn Soul single you didn't get to. If you don't know the hit, you need to familiar yourself to familiarize yourself with them. She's on the phone today and she's talking about the new movie on Lifetime call Highway to Heaven, and she's executive producer on the movie. And let's talk about that part of it, Jail, because now you're the star of the movie, but you're also the executive producer of the movie. Did you find it rewarding or was it challenging for you? What was your role here? Oh? I loved it. What I did was made some decisions. As you know, sets can be very challenging. Um, not just that, just to say it lightly. You know, the hours can be really long, the energy can be this kind of negative or foul, just trying to get through it. And I didn't want that, so I wanted to make sure that the energy was high and that the camaraderie was there, because if the cameraman don't show up, we ain't got no film. You know what I'm saying, right, I wanted to create a team environment and that's what we've done. So this is the first of several. There will be more highway to have it because the p vibe is good. Um, so there you have it. Wow. I'll say it means making everybody seem valued and important, and that's what I did it as executive produce. It also saw also little things like, um, when it came to Angela as an actress, as when it came to Angela, I did not want her to be perfect because maybe you know, there's this concept that that angels are supposed to be perfect. Angels, you know, are placed here and resemble people with flaw, all of us, every last one of us. And you don't know who's going to come into you like just to to to lift it, you know, to give you another push, just to you know, to make you remember how to smile.

But I needed that. I need stills, and I'm getting them. I'm getting them and by them really surprising producers to watch. Wow, that's really good to hear we're waiting on that. Hey, Jill, listen.

We could be reading your letter on the area you hear that just like this one, and you never know this one could be yours could be. Buggle up and hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter subject. I can't take him nowhere, Dear Stephen Shirley. I've been living with my man for nine years, and he said if I stayed with him for ten years, he might marry me. I just laugh it off because there's no way I'd marry this man after all he said and done to embarrass me. He's fifty nine and I'm forty nine, but I am head of our household and I run our transportation business all by myself. He waited until he was fifty five years old to start drinking, and he can't handle his liquor at all. He's urinated on himself in public, and he's laid on the floor and took a nap in an Applebee's. When he's not drunk, he still says inappropriate things. I have a thirteen year old daughter, and he showed up at her recital and was clapping and yelling out like a crazy person. She laughed it off, but I know she wanted to throw something at us. I have to run the business, and I let him handle the drivers and keep the cars in pristine condition because he can't deal with customers. He gets rude with people on the phone because his patience is short. He's been short with my father one time too many and my dad told him he'd knock him out, so now they aren't speaking. It's one thing after another. So I am staying with him only because our business is doing well and I don't want to have to split it with him if we break up. I know for a fact that he's messing around because I read his text messages. He spends money on the women, so I have to put him on a salary so he will not give these women the impression that he's got money. He doesn't mind anything I do, and he doesn't challenge me on anything. Do you think I'm wasting my life on him? Or I'm going to wake up one day and I'm going to wake up one day and regret how I handle things. Is it or is it true? That the grass is not greener on the other side, and I should stay put. Please help. I think you already know, I really do. And you're fed up and you're miserable, and you don't have to be. I don't understand why you stay with this idiot for so long, almost ten years. He's been rude to your dad, embarrassed your daughter, urinated on himself in public, and you know he's cheating on you, among other things. I mean, this man has done everything he could possibly do to make just you know, any sane person break up with him. So the problem has got to be you. I mean, you're the one who stayed with him this long and has been taking this stuff for this long. Why because you say you don't want to give him half the business. I mean, you guys aren't married or anything, and you don't mention whether his name is on the business so you can get out. I mean, isn't your peace of mind worth parting with him? According to you, you run the company anyway, you do everything yourself, You pay him a salary. I just say, so, let's not be greedy here or anything like that. Cut your losses, get rid of this guy. Even if you weren't in business with him. You should get out. I mean, after nine years, it's a toxic relationship and it's going nowhere. He doesn't sound like he will move out because he's got it too good where he is with you. So I just say, please start looking for a place for you and your daughter now, Steve, I pretty much feel the same way Shirley feels. I don't, you know, you know, sometimes we get teach, you know, sometimes we get to the strawberry letters and we don't. I don't really care about him. This is what you know talk about. Yeah, let me dig in here a little bit. All right, Well, here we go. I've been living with my man nine years. He's saying if I stayed with him for ten years, is he might marry me. This is the biggest blessing in this whole letter. He gave you all free ten year pass to find out exactly why you should not marry him. I just laugh at off, because there's no way I'd marry this man after all he said and done to embarrass me. He's five nine, where he's fifty nine and I'm forty nine. I thought this let him sind' to be about something else. He's fifty nine and I'm forty nine. But I'm the head of our household and I run our transportation business all by myself. Now, this fool and waited till he fifty five years old and start drinking. I'm gonna tell you right now that ain't what you want to start this lady life. Drinking is a sport. It's something you have to play all. You have to do this sport for a while to get good at it. Football players don't become football players at five. They've been playing peewee football, sad loot football, junior high, high school, college. That's how you get to the pros. You can't go to the pros at fifty five. Now, he don't just started drinking at fifty five. He getting drunk at fifty five, and he can't handle his liquor at all. He didn't urinate it on himself in public. That's because he just started. He don't know how to handle his liquor. Soon does he pull it in. He come right out and he laying on the floor. Took a nap at Applebee's in the Peak on Steve. I knew you could find some nuggets in there. I knew it. I came in the pea. Coming up in twenty three minutes after the hour, we'll get part two of Steve's response to the Strawberry letter and the subject I can't take him nowhere. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening show, all right? Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter, the subject I can't take him nowhere. Lady been to due nine years. He told if he stayed with her ten he might marry Now. She didn't. Decided she ain't gonna marry this man, no matter what. After all, he hadn't done. It embarrassed me. She's fifty nine, forty nine, has a ten year difference. She's the head of the household and run the transportation business all by herself. He waited until he was fifty five years old and start drinking. I don't know anything. You can start at fifty five and be good at it. Golf, nothing. You can't start nothing at fifty five. None of your motor skills is as sharp at fifty five as they were at twenty five. You start drinking at fifty five, and no, what didn't happened? Now? He can't hold his liquor at all. He urinated on himself in public. That's cause you had six ounces too much and the pipes bust and now you just standing there peeing on you. And he laid on the floor and took a nap in the apple Piece. And my question is did he pee on the floor of the apple piece and then he laid in it? He don't need to be drinking at all. Who lays down in the floor at apple piece? I've never been that tired, and I've been to all the restaurants. I was exhausted one night at a waffle house. I didn't even fall asleep in the chair. Who lays down on the floor at the damned apple Piece? So drunk ass? Go home? Man? And when he ain't drunk, he do inappropriate things. He comes crazy that like a holiday crazy person that you little girl's recital, showed up at the recital clapping and yelling like crazy. She laughed at all my baby got my baby all in the back. He gets rude with people. Now, she say, I have to run the business, and I let him handled the drivers and keep the cars in pristy in condition. Because he can't deal with customers. He gets rude with people on the phone because his patience is short. And I also bet he's short too. That's what a lot of short people act like that. I just wanted to throw that out. She say, his patience is short, that's why he rude it. Probably because he's short too, because short people tight all the time. But okay, you don't see that. It's right there on the paper. It's obvious to me. Then she said, he's been short with my father. To see, short people always get short talk people don't do it. Yeah, he got short with his daddy one time. Your daddy told Hill knock his ass out. So they ain't speaking no more, one thing out another. So I'm staying with him only because our business is doing well and I don't want to have to split it with him if we break up. Remember that, because I have a valuable lesson to teach you about that. I know for a fact he's messing around because I read his text. He spends money on the women. So I put him on a salary so he would not get these women the impression that he's gotten money. You're bad girl, So you just put him on a salary. But he took it because he don't mind anything I do, and he doesn't challenge me on anything. That's cause you the man of the house. You send you the head of the household, and you run the business. He don't challenge you, and he messing around with other women. He peas on him self, he lays down in restaurant floors, and he ambasses your daughter. Do you think I'm wasting my life on him? Excuse me? He peas on himself, he lays down in restaurant floors, he ambasses your daughter. Your daddy don't like him, to tell him he gonna knock his ass out. He dating other women. He don't do nothing in the card business y'all got because he can't talk to nobody because he's short. And now he messing around with women, and you to put him on the salary. Do you think I'm wasting my life on him? I don't want to read this no more. I'm gonna wake up one day and regret high handle things? Or is it true that the grass is not green on the other side and I should stay put? Please help? Of course you're wasting your time. And let's understand something else. Your grass, Your grass ain't green, So what is you warning about it being the green. On the other side, your grass ain't green. You live in a sand light playground with a man that ain't a whole man. And let me ask you something, stay for what what do you get out of it? And then you said, this is what I want to go back to. I'm staying with him only because our business is doing well and I don't want to have to split it with him before we break up. You don't have to give him half. Who told you that? Anybody? And what are you doing the business? You ain't got to give him half. First of all, when you go to court and you bring your text to court that he's been cheating with other women, he don't get half of the business. And then when you're showing the records how you do all the things and what you're wearing about him leaving the business for you. All he do is wash cars. You get in by to wash the car. Anybody wash car? You get anybody ask one of them dudes that's working in the tramp takes coming for extra when you wash these cars called the sparkling. Sparkling he out that peeing on cars and everything that's not washing the car. Herbert, you're peeing on the car for our cars. I was drinking and feeling fitting. Go to Applebee.

We'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming up at the top of the hour right after this, Go brave. You're listening to show time now, guys, to talk about yesterday's election. It was a big night for the GOP. Republican Glenn Yunkin is the brand new Virginia governor Democratic former UM candidate Terry mcculliffe. According to CNN, Republican Yunken drafted a playbook for Republicans to navigate around Donald Trump, keeping the former president's base energized while all so winning back a sheriff suburbanites who had fled the party during Trump's to New York. How the governor's race in New Jersey is really right now too close to call, but the votes count it showed a very tight race which remained uncalled for for now. This is not how Democratic Governor Phil Murphy or Garden State Democrats envisioned that going down. Democrat Eric Adams has been elected the one hundred and tenth mayor of New York City. Adams is a retired New York City Police Department captain, and he will be the second black mayor in the city's history after the late David Dinkins. Yeah, yeah, moving to Atlanta now Steve Merrill. Candidate Felicia Moore, the city council president, has advanced to a runoff election on November thirtieth, where her opponent will be City council Member Andre Dickens, and a campaign dominated by the issue of public safety. Both Moore and Dickens had favored hiring more police officers to combat a rise in violent crime. Wow. Yeah, that's a shocker. Yeah, that's a shocker because a lot of people thought Cassine read would come back. I was one of those people that thought that. I thought I thought he would come back. Yeah. So again, the runoff election will be November. Voters in Minneapolis rejected the police overhaul after protests against George Floyd's killing. The voters decided to keep the city's police department intact. Oh well yeah, yeah, that bill failed. A lot of takeaways from the election last night, Uh, we got to vote for the mid terms. Virginia's that's a big loss. That's a big loss in Virginia to lose to the GOP like that. Yeah, and then the midterms are coming up, so yeah, you know, but I mean, it was a good point raised about how in Virginia Yanken, like they said, got around he kind of just himself from Trump, you know, and they say that maybe that's the model now that they should use that playbook. You know, navigate around Trump and then you're base energized. Huh wait a minute, navigate around Trump and keep his base energized. You know, kind of distance yourself a little bit from Trump, but still keep your base energized. However, he did make distance and navigate yourself around him at the same time. How do you do that? Well, he won. I think what they're trying to say is because the Republicans, those that were Republicans that didn't like Trump, they were still Republicans, so they voted for him. You're talking about the base, the base being considered the Republican party, not that's what I'm saying. That's well, you know, look I'm for that because I don't know the base, the base being considered Trump supporters. Yeah, you know, keep them energized, keep give them a little something, give them a little something. Whatever he did. Yeah, it's still it's still his base. But people, the people that don't like Trump, but they're still diehard Republicans. I just I'm I'm done people who like Donald Trump. I just I just don't understand that. I just don't. I just don't, and and and and it really just allows me to see who we're dealing with here. If you like Donald Trump as a president and a representative of this country, what you're saying for is, you don't mind bigotry. You don't mind sexism, you don't mind blatant racist statements. You don't you don't mind any of those things as long as what as long as you win, yeah, or as long as you're right yes, or what man or as long as you get to maintain this superiority complex.

We'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming up at twenty minutes after. Right after this, you're listening to show. An American Airlines flight attendant suffered a concussion after a passenger allegedly struck her in the face during a flight from New York to California, prompting the pilot to divert to Colorado. This happened last week. According to court documents that were released yesterday. The passenger was charged with a salt and interference with a flight crew. The US District Attorney's office in Colorado set on a federal complaint that authorities that this incident began when the man got up to use the bathroom and stretch. The flight attendant told investigators that she was struck in the head after asking him to obey the seat elt sign and sit down okay. The passenger allegedly struck her in the head with his elbow, punched her in the face with a closed fist. One witness told authorities he struck her with a full swing. Another witness recalled him being restrained with duct tape and plastic band after the altercation. The unknown unnamed flight attendant had a bloody nose, complained of being dizzy and nauseous. She was treated by Denver doctors and diagnosed with a concussion. So people are still acting a fool on these airlines. Iddle whooped his ass all the way. I'm sorry, I'm just telling you.

But anyway, the point is we want to thank Jill Scott. She's got a new Lifetime movie, Highway to Heaven, premiering November six this Saturday, eight seventh Central. Like I said, yeah, he said what you said? I said what i said. Hey, y'all my closing remarks I'm gonna do. I did it on Instagram and I didn't even know it. I was just talking to an audience one time and I wanted to share it with you. And it's about disappointment. So here it is. I want to talk to you today about disappointment because I think that we all have to grapple with disappointment from time to time. The problem with disappointment is that disappointment also, if you don't understand, it can turn so ugly so fast. Too many people allow disappointment to turn into resentment. So many people think that this disappointment for them symbolizes the end. When you allowed for disappointment to turn into resentment, and you allow disappointment to turn into the final verdict, you're losing what disappointment actually can become for you. Now, I want you all to start looking at disappointment as motivation. How many times have you been faced with something that was disappointing. Let's say you go in to get a job and you own your last interview. And I have been in this position. Man. I was trying to get an insurance job one time years ago, and I went in and I had gotten gone through about three or four interviews. I was at my final interview and I said, man, I'm about to get this job. Man, get my little family together, I'll be all right. And got to that interview and they told me no, that disappointment for me was gut wrenching. I actually got in my car, a little seventy two Chevy, and I was driving off Man and tears was in my eyes when I got up on the freeway and I drove back and I looked back over at that big building with that big powerful name on it, and I had gone through four interviews, and all of a sudden, I was so disappointed in not getting hired. But you know what I learned to do though, from that moment on, I turned all my disappointment into motivation. I said, Okay, I use it as a challenge. Okay, I'll show you from the time my teacher told me that you ain't gonna never be nothing, that there's no way they'll put somebody like you on TV because you have a stuttering problem and you can't even talk. But who are you who is issuing out this disappointment? Because you're not gonna make me resent you, and you're not gonna cause me to think that you're denying me this opportunity. Are you handing me this bad news of disappointment. I'm not going to allow you to be my final verdict. You are not going to be the person who is the author of my destiny. You are not it that belongs to God, not you, and I will not give that to anyone. So when you're facing disappointment, do not hand that disappointment over to the person who gave it to you in the form of empowerment. Do not allow them to control your destiny that causes you to go into such resentment that you become bitter that all of a sudden, now all you think about is that you don't have to do that. They are not the author of your future. That belongs to God and only God. Don't let them trip you up by tripping you out. Now, I've had shows canceled, gigs taken, I've been fired from radio, I've been all in all, I've had some disappointing setbacks, and I just quiet, at least say to myself, you ain't my God, You who think you have the power by telling me no, by turning me down, by refusing me, by voting against me, by telling me that I don't have what it takes. No, no, no, no, no, all. It's just because you don't know, because you don't know what God really has for me, And that ain't your fault. So why bear resentment for these people? Because they are not the author of your destiny? And don't you dare give them that you take that disappointment and you use it as the motivation. I feel sorry for people who tell me no, because you know what, I know. I know, they just don't know. And I end up somehow, through God's grace and mercy showing them all. Keep the right attitude, y'all. God got something for you through all your disappointment. Yeah. That's on my i G page and I just happen to be thumbing through it last night, pulled it to play it, and I don't know who I was when I did it. It was in the background, and I got some people that work in my social media department and they turned them into motivational videos.
