Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time. I don't know. Y'all have a sun giving them like the million bucks things in the stuffing not good to mother. I don't join jo. You gotta turn you, you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn. You haven't got to turn them out to turn turn water to the water. Go come come on your thahuh. I shall a good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice? I come on digging now one it only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay. I want to talk to you today about success. But I want to talk to you about it like I usually do in terms of a principle of it, but I want to share something with you about it now. I was talking to my daughter about it. I've talked about my son in law about it, talking about it with all my children, and I'm really starting to express it to them now because I'm talking to a wide range of people constantly. But I want to share something with you. If you have any aspiration of being successful, I want you to realize, starting right now, the effort that is going to require. And that's why I think it stops a lot of people. I think a lot of people are never told or don't understand the sheer efforts that it takes to become successful at anything in any area of your life. If you think that doing your best is enough, that I got news for you. It's not. Well, Steve, What if you've done your best, though, and your best ain't good enough? Well, let me ask you that same question. Hold on. If you want to be successful and you've done your best and best isn't good enough, what you through? That's it? But Steve, it was my best? No, no, no, no. It was the best you had at that time, in that particular day. But tomorrow add something to it. You've never done everything. There is no you can't go no more, you can't add no more. I've seen marathon and runners end up crawling across the line. I've seen triath line people man just staggering in the street and didn't want nobody to help them because they knew that would disqualify them from the race. You got more? Have you ever dipped into your reserve tank? That's what we're talking about now. See all of us have a reserve tank, you know. I you know, on my ranch, I like to ride four wheelers. I have all terrain vehicles, and all of them have a gas tank on it and a gas tank and most of mine, let me see all of them. Yeah, all of them have gas tank needles on them, and it lets me know when I get down towards EAT there's a little lane that's read that lets me know. Okay, Steve, you're in the danger zone. Now you're riding into the lowest part of your tank. But if I keep riding and I forget to get some gas in there, guess what when it runs out of gas. All of my all terrain vie, all of them, Honda, Polaris, all of them. Those are the makers. There's a button on the gas tank itself that I can click and it says reserve. That means they know that for the hardcore riders, they're gonna ride somewhere and they're gonna get themselves in a situation and they're gonna run out of everything. They're gonna run out of road, they're gonna run out of gas. They've prepared because they know for the hardcore rider, every hardcore rider needs a reserve tank. And so there's a button that you can click on the gas tank that clicks it into a reserve, and it'll give you about fifty miles or twenty miles worth of gas in that Now, guess what in that reserve That may be all you need to get you to where you're going, or get you back to safety so you can refuel. Don't tell me you've done your best. When your best, don't cut it. What you're gonna do. See when best is possible, then good enough ain't enough. See that's good enough. But if the best is possible, why would you not shoot for that? And you are all capable of making it. But you've got to change your mindset and realize the effort that has to be put forth in becoming successful. You've got to do it relentlessly, over and over and over and over and every day. I try to do something to progress my life for the better. I try to do something every day. I wake up every day with the plan. Some phone calls, some meetings, some some some interviews. Something. Man, that's going to advance and move the brand forward. Because here's what's gonna happen. You are Let's say you reach your goal. Let's say your goal is to make one hundred thousand dollars. Well, I got news for you. Listen to this. When you make the one hundred thousand dollars, you can't go nowhere and go on vacation and put your hand behind your head and say, I made a hundred thousand dollars. Guess what you got to do? You got to find a way now to maintain that one hundred thousand, to keep it coming in. So you can't just get there and stop and rest and whoa. It is harder to maintain your success than it is to get successful. See let's say, let me let me show you this. Supposed it takes you five to eight years to find a way to make fifty thousand dollars. Let's say it takes you five to eight years to find a way to make an extra fifty thousand dollars, and you finally, through work and effort, you get to the fifty thousand dollars. More. That's that's it's only just begun now, because guess what, in order to keep the fifty coming in, you got to duplicate what you did to get there. And then, oh, here's what you're going to have the audacity being a human being, You're gonna want another fifty because you're a human being. Because you gotta have something else to shoot for. Now you're gonna want another fifty. Well, now, I guess what you gotta do now, Now you gotta do what you did before, plus you gotta come up with something else. Then after that you're gonna have the audacity because you're humans, you're gonna want another fifty. Says how this works? And see that that's that that's the importance of your relationship with God, because you're gonna constantly need it and ain't ever a point where you're gonna be through needing it. But there ain't gonna become a point in your life where you're gonna through. Won't through, be through, won't nothing unless you just gave up. And if you don't gave up, who wants that? Come on, y'all, this is going to take quite a bit of effort, and if you think it will come to you any other way, you're sadly mistaken. Because of all the successful people out I know that the effort they put out on a daily basis is daunting, and I think that the average person just doesn't understand the requirement of time and effort that it takes to get that and willingness to put it out. You gotta cut a lot of monkey business out your life. All that hanging out, all that late and all that club and all that drinking, all it. You gotta cut a whole lot of monkey business out to be successful. Man, if you're planning on being successful, get up early, stay up late, work, try, think, meet, greet, smile, attract. It takes a lot, let's go, but you can do it. God is pressed to passing out blessings all day long. Why are you not in line for yours? I'm telling you right now. I want everything God got for me because what he's shown me so far. Who if he got some more? Man on man? How good is God? Hunt? Ladies, gentleman, everybody, anybody, somebody who that down? Do I have your attention? That's good because I need it because what I'm about to say now can only be said by a very very small minute group of people. It's about six of us, to be exact. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Now I can introduce you to that small group of people that can say that. Surety Strawberry ain't good morning, Steve, Good morning, Colin Farrell, good morning. What's up crew kill space. We call him Junior morning. I'm King of praise nephew, Tommy top top top top.

Anybody else gonna join in with that? Alright? Am? I'm there, hen, raise up, let's go. I like how you think this morning, sir, uh huh. Make that same thing just applying for me, just in the hospital. That's a blessing everything. J I will get heavy when you need to talk a little strongly in your miccause I'm thinking you sound like your fathing right now. No, okay, there you go, there you go. Oh man today, Steve, you know we're pretty good man, I really do. Man, I'm ready. Oh what do you segment's gonna be? But I'm ready for it. You know that's coming to work like a listener though you don't know what. That's why we like coming because it's an adventure. You just never know what's gonna happen. You never know that ain't gonna happen. Why don't we know that pre radio show me after twenty something years, we know ain't coming up? At thirty two minutes after the hour, asked the CLO. With the Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey in the building right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, guys, it is time now for ask the CLO Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey, at your service. This one is from Ashland and Tennessee. Ashland says, I've been married for six years to a chief eater and we have not had sex in a year. He confided in our next door neighbor, who happens to be young and single. My neighbor saw my husband leave one morning, and he came over and lectured me, unsaving my marriage. I got emotional and he came close to comfort me, and I could feel him through his pants. He said he would be happy to comfort me if I ever needed it. It scared me half to death. But how can I stop staring at his house? Should I go next door and relieve a little stress with this fine young man? Well, well, look what didn't happened here? Well, ma'am, look can I have a real honest and frank answer for this man? Tell Ashlyn Ashley, you've been married six years to achieve it? Now, did she say she confided in the young man nor her husband? Now, her husband would over that and told this little dude what he up to and what he's doing little dude and took this information like, oh okay, like he'll really care for your husband, know how? So now he just slid all over to comfort you, up against you. Now you're looking out when you can't take your eyes off his house. But it ain't really the house though, it's one of the tenants and it's the tenant that stayed on the neighbor that's got you the most concerned. Look, if you went over that to get some comfort, you would be wrong for doing that, because that is wrong and two wrongs don't make a right. But with that said, if the situation were the other way around, I promise you your cheating husband would be over that getting comforted like he is anyway something. So now, if you went over that forwsome comfort, h come on, nah, ringing home? Ain't nobody got to know? Yeah, we encouraging her. I this just a fact, all right. We gotta move on, Tommy, Yeah, McKay, we're moving on. McKay. He got us. My boyfriend and I dated for a long time, but we broke up and we'll never get back together. So I went out with his friend and we clicked. Mike's boyfriend found out and he's having a hard time dealing with it. He's tried to jump on his friend and he's been calling me all kinds of names. We're all single, and I can date whoever I want. I wouldn't have a problem if he dated a friend of mine. I don't want him anymore. Why is he tripping? Oh? Why is he tripping because the two things. One, he tripping with his boy because you're supposed to be my boy, but which proves they ain't really as close or the boy he thought he was. Secondly, he tripping with you because how could you because you knew this is supposed to be my boy. So what I think is I thank your little boyfriend been delusional for quite some time. He think his boys his boy that really ain't his boy, and he still thank you his woman, she said, ever get back together? Your ex boyfriend is living a life with a lot of delusion because he thought his boy was really his boy, but he ain't his boy, and he think you still his woman. So now he didn't try to jump on the boy, and now he mad at you. But now you lied talking about didn't lie. You told you wouldn't be mad if he dated one of your girlfriends. That's a damn lie, and you and I and everybody listening, No, that's a lie. Well maybe that's what her ex should do. Well, you know, don't nobody want him. They're never getting back together. She does not want him anymore anymore. All right, Edna, We're moving on. Edna in Kentucky, says, I'm in my mid sixties, Edna, Steve that name in my mid sixties, and I started driving for a ride share company. Recently, I picked up an older black mail from an upscale neighborhood and he said he had to pick a friend up. I want to pick up a beautiful, younger black woman. They started to kiss and undress in the back of my suv. He instructed me to get on the interstate and ride until they finished their business on the back seat. He paid me three hundred dollars cash for the ride, and I asked and asked if I would like to be his personal driver? Is this too risky or should I do it? What boy? Become his personal driver?

Coming up at the top of the hour, we'll have some entertainment news for you. Don't go anywhere, stick around. This is the Steve Harvey Morning Show. We'll be back right after this. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show and trending headline news. Former Minneapolis police officers Derek Chauvin, Thomas Lane, j Alexander Quang, and Taotoe have been charged with violating Floyd's that's George Floyd's constitutional rights in ways that resulted in bodily injury two and the death of George Floyd. Each officer pleaded not guilty to federal charges Tuesday at a virtual hearing. The hearing also included some of the free trial motions, including request us from former police officers that lame Quang and Taou and asking to separate their cases from Chauvin's. Chauvin was convicted in Floyd's murder in April twenty twenty one, and his fellow ex officers argue that they would not get a fair trial if connected to Chauvin. The judge recessed the hearing without announcing a decision on a trial date, leading some close to the case to speculate it could be pushed into next year. Derek Chauvin is serving a twenty two year and a half sentence in a Minnesota prison for the murder of George Floyd. See here's when it comes to law. That kind of throws me. You. These defendants are trying to say they don't feel as though they can get a fair trial if they're connected to George Floyd. I mean to Mark Chauvin, You, Derek Chauvin, you was there, You were connected to him that day when you yeah, you understanding that watching watching him murder this many and your job is to serve and protect everybody, and you did nothing to serve or protect that day. Now you want to act like called You don't want nobody to think you was with him. Y'ah, same uniform, O, y'all, same division, y'all you stood there. See, man, the only way we're going to put a curb on this police brutality that that happens is that everybody involved has to be a held accountable. If a criminal. If four criminals get in a car and one criminal gets out the car and go inside and shoot somebody and come back and get in the car, all four of them fit to go to jail, and together together one is gonna go in there for murder one you got out to call you in there and shot him, and everybody else is going for murder. Two, you participated in a murder. You didn't intend for it to happen, but that's man slaughter dog. And you didn't do anything to call the police. Alice, Yeah, you damn police. That's another thing. How many times have you watched these police shows and you heard them say why didn't you report it? Why didn't you try to get the man help? I was scared. Well, when you are the help and you provide no help? What you want us to do? Who pay you to help? I'm sorry? Where we had now? Yeah? Yeah we didn't already die? Nine one one? You help? Now? You ain't the nine or the one on? What were doing? Hill? Yes, sir? It is so types of cases too, all them guts to pay. Gotta stop all of that blue code honor, the blue, the Blue brotherhood. That all to stop, stop all that collaboration on filling out the police report, Na man, everybody accountable. Because I watched after the George Floyd thing, they showed a video of a police officer handling somebody crazy and one of the black police officers went over there and put him and say, hey man, yo, you you know what you're doing. See that's how policing work. That's it. When you see something wrong, corrected what you're to do? Yeah, going too far? Yeah? Yeah? All right? Um, well, said Steve switching gears in entertainment News. Well, NICKI Nag if you notice, did not go to the MET gala because of the vaccine requirement. That's why she said she didn't go. She shared the news on Twitter, saying if I get vaccinated, it won't be for the met She said, It'll be once I feel I've done enough research. I'm working that now. She also shared that her cousin and Trinidad won't get the shot because his friend got it and got this guy's his friend got it and became impotent and had swollen testicles. The vaccine, that's what said. That sounded like an infection. That sound like a virus. That sounds like like the shot, because of which she puts this on Twitter. Though. Yeah, so Joey read from us in d c RI report. Um just got mad. I mean this upset her. She got mad at Nikki for not urging her followers, and you know Nikki has millions. Uh, she got mad at Nikki for not urging her followers to get vaccinated. From there, it got real ugly between the ladies with the viral results, and there is more doctor falls heard about it. He didn't agree with Nicki Minaj's anti vaccine stand so he said on CNN with an interview with in an interview with Jake Tapper that Nikki was spreading misinformation after she admitted that she's not vaccinated. First, we didn't heard about her about testicle. And let me explain something to y'all. For everybody that has a theory that this is a plot to get rid of black people, let me explain something to you. This this is this vaccine is everywhere. It's a global pandemic. Y'all. Do you know that France just passed the issue coming up on fashion Week that you couldnt come into parents from the United States and lets you vaccinated. That's not a black event? All right?

Day. Yeah, let me just and doctor Fouci said, there's no medical claim to that. That's misinformation. Go ahead, Yeah, I'm gonna let the sellers jump in here. Yeah, but you trying to tip And oh, by the way, I like Nicki Minaje. But listen to this, though, all the people that then took this damn vaccine were testicles. We we using the reference of your cousin's friend in Trinidad, duds, testicles, the swolden. That's why he shouldn't have took the vaccine. Girl, what you mean to tell me that a bunch of men got together and created something that could affect our testicles? What? No? And a woman and have you heard research scuse any other testicles spoke out on this any first? Okay, Now, now, ain't a man testicles across the country that then got the shot, ain't new motesticle swolders, ain't nobody the Trendidad that's called VD Let's keep dog. That is not the vaccine.

That's important, and that's viagra, which is a top seller. Oh, by the way, a matter of fact, why don't when we take our next shot, drop something that viagra in there for me? But we can get all this at one time. They'll be lined up, Tommy, you will run out of them. You'll run out of vaccine if you do that. Genius, Tommy, genius, we take viagra. Don't know what in its? What? Sir? The research she go? What we gotta go? Guys, coming up four minutes after day hour. We'll be back with more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

We got it for you. Here. It is the Strawberry letter, Thank you nephew. Subject turning a hood dude into a husband. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a thirty year old engaged female and my fiance is thirty four years old. I work as a school administrator and he is a mechanic. We met when he fixed my flat tire and then offered to detail my car for free. He is a tall, thin man with pearly white teeth and a nice frow. I could tell he was a hood dude the minute I saw him, and that's what attracted me to him. He played basketball at a community center and he invited me to a game. He was bawling on the court and I was very turned on by him. We made love later on that day and we've been inseparable since then. He was rough in bed and cursed a lot initially during sex, but he is more romantic now. After we dated for almost two years, a little diamond ring and he proposed. Then. That's when everything got tricky because I never admitted to my friends and family that he is my man. They thought he was just my maintenance man and just for sex until I found mister Wright. They know I like edgy guys, but not this edgy. He curses a whole lot, He uses slang, and he calls everybody the N word. He is very well known in the neighborhood he grew up in, and he's still living in the house he grew up in. I would never try to change him, but I did ask him about getting a GED so he could advance in his career. He said he's going to take over the shop when the owner retires, and he doesn't need a GDGED for that. He is content where he is in life, so I try not to push him. I plan to take him on trips to other countries so he can see there is more to life than his hood and the auto shop. Some days I love him unconditionally, and on the other days I feel embarrassed by him. Can I turn this hood dude into a good husband? Or am I wasting my time? Please advise? See right there for you to even have to ask that question, there's a problem. And you know the number one rule, ladies. We cannot change them. We can only change ourselves. If there's to be a change in him. He'll have to want to do that change. He'll have to want to do it for you or just want to do it on his own. And second, if this is who you love and want to be with your grown and you don't have to explain him to your friends and family who think he's a maintenance man and not your man. But some days you say you love him unconditionally and other days you're embarrassed by him. Well, that's a problem. That's not good. Okay, you're supposed to be happy with him, you know, and proud to be with him. All of that. You've accepted him for who he is right now. But marriage, marriage is a whole different situation because you're going to grow in marriage, you know, and in life of course, you know there's going to be changed. You don't want to grow apart. You don't want to drift apart because of these differences. You're a school administrator. He's a mechanic who can but won't get his ged, who could make a big difference in his life, He could could take him further in life. I'm assuming you may you may use a little profanity at times, but nothing like him, who you say curses a lot, and you mentioned that a couple of times in the letters, so that you know that kind of bothers you. He calls everyone the in word, everyone the in word. Come on, these are problems. You said he still lives in the house that he grew up in. Now does that mean he lives with his mom because you did not put that in the letter, But in the house he grew up in, he grew up with his parents. So you guys already have problems, and I guarantee you marriage will complicate this situation even further. I don't think you too, are from marriage because you're too unequally yoked right now. It has nothing to do with him being edgy or from the hood. It's just that he doesn't want to better himself and you want much more. You said it in your letter. That's gonna frustrate you, irritate you, and your word embarrass you. So right now I say, continue dating and don't jump the broom. Steve, see this letters, It just reminds me of me. I just I ain't really I ain't really bothered by this. You know, it's thirty year old engage female and fiance is thirty folk, you work as a school administrator. Hill McKenny, we met. He fixed your flat tie. Then what the man did was offered to detail it free, right down homeboy working. Then he detailed your car free, tall thin, pearly white tea nice after. Now, you said, at the time you could tell he was a hood dude. But that's what attracted you to Hill. Okay, so what his attraction was his hood dude with your little quote unquote school administrator self. So now let the fund begin. He do what a hood dude dude? He played basketball down at the center, invited you to come see the game. If I can't do nothing, I can bolve, I'm gonna let her come down here. And then you said, on that day he was bawling. He came in, he flexed, shot his best shot. Now he was crazy. Right after y'all started bawling, y'all made love that day. All it took was a couple of jumpers on all he did, a couple of outs, score some baskets. You're passing it out. Oh he passing the ball. You say, my turn, All right, hold on, Steve, hold that surpassed two. We'll have part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour Strawberry Letters, subject today turning a hood dude into a husband. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, come on, Steve, let's recap today Strawberry letter. The subject turning a hood dude into a husband a little thirty year old school administrative at just thirty four. Ye'll, dude, that's a mechanic. He fixed a car down that in detail, it for free. She liked him. She could recognize the fact he was a hood boy, but that's what attracted her. He invited her to the basketball game he played wood down at Through Center on that weekend. She came and homeboy with balling. I'm talking about bawling, letting them med all this hell. That turned her on. So right after that, later on that day they made love. I mean, what what you supposed to do after good game? You know you here, you know we got time, go get nothing need let's get on get back in the same you was bawling, you kept passing the ball. Let me pass you something, okay, And then she says, after that they were in separable. Uh, now he was rough in bed, and he cussed a lot initially doing second well, you know the first one, you know it's gonna be some cussing, you know, and then he probably cussed a lot anyway, I'm anna cusser, So I know for you that first time that that brains out some cussing because you first of all, you can't leave there. And it's just it's a form of expression, customness of you know, a lot of adjectives in there that can be used in various places. See, custom is a very limited vocabulary, so only I don't know, maybe I think it's maybe twelve cuss words, you know, I use the top four all the time. But it said, but these cuss words mean different things at different times, you know. You know, all hell naw can be applied a lot of different ways, so you scott to know it. So he doesn't have a large vocabalary. But the custom doing sex is all hell knaw. Man, I can't believe in hell board is good. I'm feeling something old. Yeall go, it's teamling and all this, say all the producers cus. But let's move on. But now he's yeah, he's remote romantic. Now now y'all been dating for two years, he got a little diamond ring and he proposed you. Say, that's what it got tricky because I knew you had never admitted to your friends and family if he was your man. See, they thought he was your maintenance man for sex until I found mister Wright. So that's see this your fault. See this, the little this, the little image you tried to portray. I'm just doing him, just to be doing something, girl, But you didn't want to admit you was in love with your brother. See in all of this letter right here, you know what I see. I see a good man. But now let's talk about this. They know you like edgy guys, but not this edgy. What you mean, not this edgy, this the one that asked you to marry it. What you mean you don't like them? This edgy, just the one that didn't proposed to you. What you mean you don't like them? This edgy? This one then lasted two years. See, sister, you got to quit lying to yourself because it's really a good dude. Now here we go. He cusses a whole lot, He uses sling, and he called everybody the end word. So we do what And I am very familiar with this line in the letter right here, because it's a lot he uses slang. He called everybody N word. Now, I don't call everybody inn word. But if you're my dude, though, I'm gonna just keep it real with you. But now, if you ain't my dude and you ain't black stepped light. But I never used I never use that around people that's not in my circle. So if you said to me, please understand, the reaction will be swift and severe. He is very well known in the neighborhood. He grew up in I'm telling you on the reel and were never fit the play. Okay, he is very well known in the neighborhood he grew up in and he's still living in the house he grew up in. Well, that don't mean he stayed with his mama. That just means that's the houses mom and never grew up in, and he bought it. He got the house. I don't think he lived with his mama ever. I would never try to change him. But I did ask him about getting the ged so he can advance in his career. He said, he taking over the shop with the ownery time. He don't need no damn g d for that. That's his plan. Now he's content where he is in life, so I try not to push him. Well, see now that's where you come in as a woman. Women do find a way to help push and motivate it. Ain't push his motivation. You can find a way to motivate him. Now. See this is why I know we all the way in. I plan to take him on trips to other countries so he can see that as more to life than his hood and the auto shop. Now listen to me, don't do that for him. Don't don't do that. Take his ass off the cushion. I'm gonna tell you this right now, y'all gonna wind up. You've seen the show. Locked up abroad, get your ass in that situation here. Listen to me. You can't take his ass out of the country. Best place you can take his ass is Vegas. He can go to Venice out there, he can go to Italy out there, and he can go to New York. You can go right on the strip and visit two places. You can go New Yall, you can go to Paris, and you can go to Venice. You can go. Don't take his ass out to country. Y'all ass it's gonna be locked up abroad and don't my remarks today. Post your comments on Today's Strawberry Letter at Steve Harvey FM on Instagram and Facebook. Check out the Strawberry Letter podcast on demand coming up at forty six minutes after the hour, our girl Cheryl Underwood. Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Coming up at the top of the hour, It's Carlin's Reality Update. But right now, Steve, please introduce our girl from the top. Ladies and gentlemen upon us, you better know it. Let me hold twere dollars that hold your long way little gas money, little you know, a little snack money at your job and everything. But I'm glad you started with a money discussion. Now, we had a little recall out here this week in California. You know, uh, Colin Farrell, I know you're about to get mad at me, but Larry Elder got his ass kit. Thank you. They calling that Elder abuse Tommy all over the listen to me. But while we laughing at it, we're trying to make you think if this recall had been successful, then Larry Elder would have been able to replace them fine Stein in the Senate and it would have tipped the balance of the Senate when no case Slicier, Sure, what that got to do with me? We'll matching over here acting crazy and West Virginia. That's right. He won't let them get the money for the infrastructure that will make jobs. Because this is a power game to these people, and people say, well, what has it got to do with me? It's got everything to do with you. If we didn't vote the way we needed to vote to get Biden Harris in now we wouldn't have a different d OJH. What has that got to do with me? What the same dude that they wouldn't let get on the Supreme Court is now the dude that's running the d o J who's doing what? Trying to fight this bustion thing in Texas. See, they test stuff out in other states to see if it fly, to see if we're sleeping, to see if we're gonna get caught slipping. So then they say, well, if it works over here, then it will work over here. So anything that goes on anywhere has something to do with the quality of your life. When you're talking about COVID, when you're talking about homelessness, when you talk about anything that affects your everyday life. That's why voting is important. That's why you need to vote and keep your rights to vote or get your rights to vote back. And why do they want to make it difficult to vote so that what happened in California does not happen anywhere. They made it easy to vote in California. You can walk in, you can mail it in, you can put it in a little box. So we've got to fight for the right to vote. Brothers and sisters. All politics is local, but right now we're looking at California. Hold strong, and Larry Elder, get somewhere and set your ass down, because you do not speak for not just black people, but you're gonna take that ale for the Republican. Don't the republic Don't we as a Republican get tired of losing all the damn time. And don't get me started on Trump talking about Pence. He told Pence, we ain't gonna be France. No, mom, it was never friends. He was never all right. Thank you, Cheryl. Coming up at the top of the hour with Carla's Reality update. Right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Ladies and gentlemen, get ready. It is that time. I said, it is that time, ladies and gentlemen get ready to get ready, get ready. She is here, Carla Ferrell with what reality update coming in hot he let you have it today. Thank you, Nephew, thank you, Shirley. All right, here we go. Let's start off with some rumors about the Real Housewives of Atlanta. There's a rumor out there that Cynthia Bailey and Kenya Moore are not returning to the Real Housewives of Atlanta. Now, Portia and Candy will be back, but they're saying that they are going to cast younger new cast members. That's a rumor. We don't know if that's true, and no word yet, Junior. I'm not sure if the ogs like your girl Charrey, Yeah, are coming back. We don't know yet. We don't know yet. I Cynthia Bla and her husband Michael my show yesterday, did they still any t Steve a lot of stuff, But it wasn't about whether she'd come back on the show. Man. Well, that's a rumor. We don't know if it's true. So we will see waiting on the new season. For the Real Housewives of Atlanta this fall. All right, Real Housewives of Potomac Kansas is having issues with her husband, Chris, being her manager. You know, she's a singer and an actress, so it's causing some tension. That's causing some tension, i should say, in their marriage. So they're trying to work that out. The New Housewife newcast member Mia, she hosted a goddess luncheon. She wanted to do something positive for the women, get them all together, and she asked them to go around the table at this luncheon to say, you know, something nice about each person, each lady. And it was awkward. It was hard to say something nice about somebody you hate. Yeah, yeah, Steve. It was a struggle. But at the end of it, the ladies, you know, they tried to compliment each other and say positive things. And then Giselle wanted Karen to apologize to her. Karen wanted Gizelle to apologize to her. You know, they've been beef in the entire season, but Gizelle has apologized in her defense to Karen a lot in past seasons, so she Gizelle told Karen that she wanted her to apologize to her for the things that Karen said about Giselle's ex Jamal Bryant. Gizelle said that those things were hurtful to her daughters and to her children, and so Karen did apologize for that, saying she didn't want her daughters and her children to be upset. So they kind of squashed their beef and then Ashley asked them to hug it out and they said, don't push it. So there you go. There you go. Real Housewives a Potomac and then finally Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. I've been on roll watching these Real Housewives shows Salt Lake City. Well it happened, honey. You know, they were taping it was a new season. They were going on a girl's trip to Vail, Colorado, and then Jen, she gets this call from her husband. I guess he was warning her that the Feds, that the police were about to show up on location where they were at the party bus. Well, Jen gets off the bus, takes her microphone off, gets off the bus, get into the car. The police show up at the party bus asking for her, looking for her. Now she has been charged with wire fraud, money laundering in this huge telemarketing scheme that has been going on for over ten years with her company, her assistant. He was arrested. So the question the Housewives of Salt Lake City, they want to know who tipped off the police and let them know where Jen was going to be at that exact moment while they were taping. I mean they came right to the location, they came right to the bus. What. I ain't a detective, but I gotta clue you as a housewife. Yeah, yeah, for five hundred, you'll take a housewife for five hundred. I'm with you, Junior. Now, Meredith, you're right brilliant. Meredith the housewife. She can't stand gin so, oh my boy, I don't know. I'm thinking it might have been Meredith that tipped off the fence because she wasn't fair thun thun than. I'll keep watching. I'll let you know. Hit me up at lips Marcarla on a gram and Twitter, and we'll talk more about reality update. What you guys, Shirley, Well, thank you, Carla.

My neighbor saw my husband leave one morning, and he came over and lectured me, unsaving my marriage. I got emotion and oland he came close to comfort me, and I could feel him through his pants.

Tell Ashley, Ashley, you've been married six years to a Cheatah? Now did she say she confided in the young man her husband. Now, her husband went over that and told this little dude what he up to and what he doing little dude, and took this information like, oh okay, like he'll really care for your husband, know how? Apparently think that's he just slid all over to comfort you up against you. Now you're looking at when you can't take your eyes off his house. But it ain't really the house though. It's one of the tenants, and it's the tenant that stayed on the neighbor that's got you the most concern. Look, if you went over there to get some comfort, you would be wrong for doing that, because that is wrong and two wrongs don't make a right. But with that said, if the situation were the other way around, I promise you your cheating husband would be over and getting comforted like he is anyway at some point. So now, if you went over there for awesome comfort, Hi, Hi, come on bringing home, ain't nobody got to know? Yeah, we encouraging her. I this just a fact, all right. We gotta move on, tommy, Yeah, kind that damn don't coming up. It is our last break of the day. And of course, at forty nine minutes after the hour, we'll have some closing remarks from the one and only, our fearless leader, Steve Harvey right after this. You're listening, all right, guys, here we are last break of the day on this Thursday. All right, thank you, thank you, thank you. I appreciate you. This is it so much. And and once again, guys, we got to say a huge shout out to California voters. We asked you, we asked you to get out and vote, and guess what you did that and you made it happen. Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom remains governor, he stated the recall and will remain governor like I said, of the great state of California. Yeah, we still have to work today, So Steve Harby Nation Day woke. We still have work to do. And get ready because in two weeks it's the National Voter Registration Week of Action September twenty seventh through October third. Let's get your friends, your family, and your neighbors ready to register to vote and check their voter registration status. All you have to do is go to when We All Vote dot org for more details. Let me tell you something we are going to be about the business doing this campaign to make an our mission to make sure that us, we and all of our friends, relatives, and acquaintances and associates are registered to vote. Because let me tell y'all something, we are fully engaged at this point. And I want to thank the minority, the ultra right wing conservatives, the Tucker Causes, the Hannities, the Larry Elders. I really want to thank you, man, because one of the reasons that we are fully engaged is because now we are fully enraged, because you have just really just pissed us off. And I really appreciate that. I love to see blatant racism because see, somebody needs to see racism in a blatant form, not subtle racism, because some people don't get jokes some some some people ain't quit quitted. Some people have to get hit with it dead in their teeth for them to taste it. So I'm okay with blatant racism because I know your ass exist anyway, so you might as well come front and center. So I like the Tucker castles, I like the Hannitis, I like the Larry Elders who just blatant. I like the Karens of the world who are getting videotaped all over this country right now just being your little caring racist ass self. Thank you, because see, we need people like you. Instead of getting mad when they show up, y'all, appreciate what they do, because now it really shows who who you really are. See, you know abortion to me, let me, let me talk about this for a second. You know, these attacks on abortion clinics and people who want to have an abortion. First of all, in all honesty, this is my honest opinion. I really do think that abortion laws and right should be conducted and enacted by women and women only because women are the only ones who can create life. What do we even know? It's so hypocritical of us to get involved in the abortion issues when it should be a woman's right period. Women should come up with the laws, penalties, requirements, everything, women. Women should do it. But let me tell you something, man, about men and about these ultra right wing people. They don't really care about abortion at all. They really don't. They only care about the issue of abortion. And just hear me out what I'm saying. Men don't care about abortion at all. Stop the front and man, you know I know the truth. I talk to y'all on golf courses. Man, I talk to y'all in little social clubs. I talk to y'all. I talk to elite people. They don't care about abortion, y'all, quick tripping. They care only about the issue of abortion because the issue of abortion tips votes. And all they do is they use it as a voting mechanism because it is a false illusion of morality. They use abortion as an issue to deal with morality, and they try to use groups like the Southern Baptists in all of these people to appeal to your moral morality. But the people who are asking to appeal to your morality ain't got none, they damned self. You can miss me talking about abortion when you steady trying to take the right to vote from people. You can miss me with abortion. When you refuse to help the underprivilege of this country with childcare. You can miss me with the abortion issue when you try everything in your power to keep our tax system in place where people who pay less taxes get less education. So now you can keep the poor poor, and you can keep them in a certain place and they can't elevate through education because they don't live in an area that pays a certain amount of taxes which keeps them on the poor side of education. But you moral though, man, miss me, So don't throw in abortion as a moral issue when your whole life is filled with immoral and acts of hypocrisy. That's what I'm talking about, and that's the truth of the matter, y'all. Y'all using abortion simply to tip vote, and you use the morality issue with your little Southern Christian organizations and try to make people think they moral. But this whole system is more immoral, and this whole system is corrupt, and it's a hypocritical thing. We awoke now, awake now as wide open, and we're voting. We vote all, y'all of fin to be gone. We're voting in all elections now. Thank you, see your mind for all. Steve Every contests no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
