And it's to y'all to me true good to tete hardy listening to me to other for stout hobby, don't you join yeah? Hobby joining me? Honey said go turn to go, Yeah, you want to very close. You gotta turn't the turnout turn to you? Lovely got the turn out to turn wall. Come come on your thing at it. I show you a good morning. Everybody, y'all listening to the voice, come on dig me now wanted only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, here we go. Um. I was working out. I was talking to a buddy of mine, and I was telling him something that Bishop T. D. Jake's told me one time I heard him say it. He said, oh, I would hate to die and not do the thing that I was born to do. I would hate to die and not do the thing that I was born to do. Man, oh man, oh man, man. That hit me like a like a like a pile of bricks man, because it made me feel so grateful that God has allowed me to live my life this way now, and I'm talking about grateful for all of it, the good, the bad, and the ugly, and I have had all of them. The person you see today it ain't always who I was. It was on the inside of me, but it hadn't externalized itself, if that's a word. It hadn't been brought out. It was in here, but it was under development. Who I am today was a process. But like I said before, don't trip hem through with me yet. Even today, I'm still an imperfect soldier for Christ. Today. I still fall short oftentimes, but I'll tell you what, I'm ever grateful for the life I have. And you know what I wanted courage everybody today to explore your possibilities. I mean, man, explore your possibilities. Why would you not want to find out, discover or no what it is God God for you? Why would you not want to achieve or accomplish all of your possibilities? Now, as I ask you this question, I want you to know that the devil is busy, that he plays mind tricks. So as you hear this, I already know he's saying to some of y'all, Yeah, Steve, that's easy for you to say, but I didn't got myself in this situation right here. You ain't nothing too hard for God, nothing nothing. And see, so as you listen to me, try to try to get your mind open to this. Why would you not want to explore all of your life's possibilities, what's possible with your life? And I'm talking about from right where you are right now. I'm not asking you to change. I'm not asking you to do anything. I'm telling you this is a fact that God can get you from right where you are right now. Broken, misled, misguided, misunderstood, mistaken, all of that, misfortunate, all of the misses you've been talking about in your life. You know you I missed a lottery, I missed my ride. They fined me. I I missed the deadline. I didn't get it. Miss people. People, people just miss stay self to death. If you've been all in missus, God can get you from right where you are. God a home run hit her. I'm here to tell you that he's a home run hitter. He's a put him over the wall whenever he wants to, all the time, and you can be a recipient or some of these home runs he'll put the bat in your hand, but you got to swing now. Listen to me. You got to stop feeling sorry for yourself. You got to stop holding yourself down with beating yourself up. I was listening to George Myers on TV the other day and she said that she was talking to God, and she said that she had kept asking God to forgive her over and over one of her prayers, Lord, forgive me and for something she had done, and she was telling it to somebody. As I remember the story she was telling, she says she was telling that somebody minister or something, and the minister said, hey, hey, hey, he heard you the first time. See a lot of us we keep ourselves down and back because we keep beating ourselves up for the mistakes we did in made. But God is in a forgiving business all day long. He forgives you time and time again. He won't hold you down about it if you don't hold yourself down about it. But I'm gonna tell you one more time. The devil is busy. So what the devil do is he makes you think you ain't worthy. He makes you think that you've done something so despicable that you can't come back from it. He makes you feel like you're so low you can't go up high. He knocked you down and make you feel like you've been knocked down hard than anybody else. You can't get up. He wrote you so deep down in that ditch you can't see over the edge. God can come get you from no matter where you are. I know a lady. I know a lady personally. The doctors told her you got sixty days tops a year and a half. Lady, she was still here. I'm telling you, man, you ain't in no hole too deep for God. Magic Johnson to tell you that. Let's sten to me, you ain't in no hole too deep for God. Steve Harvey can tell you that you ain't in a hole too deep for God. Tyler Perry can tell you that. I can name you some people. Bishop Jake can tell you that. I can tell you. Kenneth Alma can tell you that. Bishop Kenneth Olman I can tell you some people. Kirk Franklin can tell you that. Donnie mcclarkton can tell you that. I just know some people personally man that they've been in a hole. Joel Oldstein can tell you about it. I know some people man been down been in a hole so deep. I bet you Paula Deane can tell you about it. See. But but you know what, then here we go, see we see see you know, see we don't we don't like to talk about that because now we want everybody to pay extra hard for some mistakes they made when clearly and excuse me for being a new Christian. But there is a prayer that I've been saying since I was a little bit boy, and it took me till I was a grown man to understand it. Forgive us our trust path as we forgive those who trust passed against us. So see, it ain't my job to hold nobody down, to keep my knee on somebody's neck. Who am I? I'm gonna need some forgiveness in a second here, probably today. See so all this, you're holding people down with the way you feel about him. And she shouldn't have said this, and she will never get it. I never support this again. Man, Get up, get up and get real. You're for real. You think you ain't gonna need forgiveness real soon? You ain't gonna make a diabolical mistake in your life? You don't think you all? I have thousands of them probably gonna make a few hundred more for our get up out of here. So I've decided to be in a forgiving business because I want God to forgive my trust passes as I forgive those who trust passed against me. You understand, see excuse me for being a new Christian. I'm I get I get tired of talking to picture, to to the people man supposed to be saved, and talking about their christian I don't want that type religion. Man. I ain't in that normal. I ain't in that. You can call me wrong if you want to saying how you want to say. I ain't in that normal. I ain't in all that. You can feel how you want to feel about me. But I got proof to God work in my life. You know, I can't hardly get it out sometimes when people ask me something about deeper on the inside of me, about my soul and how I used to being, and my journey and my trip, because people don't know the trip I've been on. You may have been on one worse than me, but you know what, you ain't in a hole too deep God can't get you out of. And I wish I want I want people to remember that man, God is a redeemer, He the Great. I am. So if you ain't got nothing, now what you're asking for? You know, you might not have nothing cause you ain't asking for nothing. Qut asking God to get you out of debt and ask God for a life of abundance. Then you take the money and you get out of debt. You keep asking to get out of debt. You keep being in debt to get out of Come on, man, what you're asking God? Fault? I'm just tripping today, that's all. I'm sorry. I apologize. You're listening. Steve. This is it, ladies and gentlemen. Steve Harvey, Martin short and full effect, life and living color. Steve Harvey is the leader, but would be nothing without the crew. Shirley Strong. Hey, good morning, Steve. How you doing. Colin for rel is out today? Ain't no problem. Here we go, Junior. Morning up was heady man? Morning Up? And the food? Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry him on hump day. Baby, I'm sorry. It's Wednesday, Quirsty, it's Westy. You see my banks? Yeah? Did they did right? Up? That man flew up? Yeah, that's you're right, You're right about that. Okay, guys, So here's the deal. What's happening. I'm starting to program. You know, I get ain't some weight on my vacation because I didn't do a damn yeah, that's what I probably eight eight to ten. I stepped on the scale. I think it was wrong out then at two eight. Yeah, so that would mean ten pounds, but I don't really feel like ten. But I did button the jacket the other day. That squarely say a ten. What did you eat? Though? What did you eat? Every damn thing that the chef cooked on the boat. The chef cooked so you could get whatever you want it. If you had a taste for fried chicken or fried catfish or ice cream, you can get whatever. My wife and had it making buttermilk, fried chicken and waffles. Hold up, this is what Margie did. Margie went online. I've taken you all the normous right for the aunt you French toasted? Yes, sir, Marjorie pulled up the recipe online, gave it to the shelf. He made it all the time. Oh man. One thing about Marjorie, her palate is amazing. Especially you know what my wife she said, I'm a foodie, she said, I actually I'm a big girl. She's had four pounds. That's what she said. I'm a four hundred pound big girl in hire. The only thing is she ordered like a big girl, but she don't eat it like she ordered the big dessert and just get two spoons to go here eat the rest of his taste so they won't think I've wasted food. And what the hell is you on this boat time? I'm wasting food? But you know that was instilled in all of us from childhood. Let me tell you what all I did. I bought something on the vacation and worried while I was on vacation because I'm locked into that mindset. These your church shoes, Steve school pain. And so when I buy something new, I keep it wrapped up till I get home and unwrapping. My wife said, why don't you wear your the shirt? You ball? I bought that shirt, she said, But it go with the payings. Wh aren't you We just bought ship. Come on, man, all that all that, we got to take a break right here, and when we come back here, tell me about them Fried Lemons. I got to hear about that. Oh yeah, yeah, coming up, we'll talk more about Steve's vacation and whatever else is in the news when we come back inside of something funny at thirty two after the hour you're listening to show. All right, Steve, we have to talk about this big news. Yesterday, Paul Manafort was found guilty on eight counts in his fraud child. The judge in the bank and tax fraud case declared a mistrial on those remaining ten counts. Um, Paul Manafort was found Yeah, yeah, yep, yep, tax and bank fraud. Uh. The trial is going on, of course in Alexandria, Virginia. The judged did declare, as I mentioned, a mistrial and the remaining ten counts after the jurors said they couldn't reach a verdict on those charges. Um. Of course, he's a former campaign chairman for Donald Trump. It is the first secured at a trial by UM that trial by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team. Manaford is also expected to stand trial next month on a separate set of federal charges in Washington. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Five of the guilty verdicts were for filing false tax documents and the other three were involved foreign bank account registration and bank fraud. So he's in a world of trouble. Then you've got Michael Cohen, former Donald Trump attorney. Uh, he pleaded he pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and fraud yesterday. He could face some prison time as well. But here's the here's the thing about this one. In a plea deal, Cohen says he acted in coordination and at the direction of a candidate for federal office. Now who do you think that one candidate? Yeah, this has to do with when he paid Stormy Daniels the money and all of that. So that would be these guys are in some big trouble. Here is Donald Trump going to pardon them? That's the question, Steve, because he has the power. He has the power to do that as president, but he the person behind all of it. Yeah, I mean is not yea, we are in a place of politics that we've never been bed. This is well, well, I don't know if you could say that. Can you With Watergate? Water It wasn't this That was a series of lives about one thing about breaking into the Democratic headquarters. This ain't a lot about something who bugged their office. This about every damning off. Im before he even declared his candidacy, said you cannot be that guy and it not happened because it happens on a much smaller lower level. That level up, damn man. Then the big boys yeah, oh yeah, they run the country. This this I mean, man, this is crazy. Man. I'm gonna tell you something. Donald Trump rue the day that he ran for president, Bro, he want his life back the way it was because dog, he was doing that thing. Yeah. I just think he had a different idea of what it meant to be president. Yeah, he didn't think he'd be president. Well that that that's one. And then once you got it, he thought that just he didn't realize that he works for the people. You have a boss, now, Donald Trump, you have to answer right exactly. Show he thought that he was gonna be opening up hotels in every city right still making money. He thought he'd be cutting deals and everything. Or his son then was happy and everything. But he created some enemies. One of the biggest mistakes he made, and I kid you not, was creating the term fake news news because you ticked off an entire journalism community that went, oh we fake news. Bet this ain't fake And all they got now is that for him, if he had a came in and tried to put people together. It would have been a lot different for him from the people from the left. Now Obama came in and tried to put people together. People up the right, they don't can abud they their mission is to never bring people together. The rights mission is to set it up for them on the right because they right and the rest of us is wrong. Wrong. Absolutely. They never tried to work with President Obama. They just never gave They was hell bit on not working with this man. They the only accepted answer, No, Mitch McConnell only want to get in there for one term, if you recall that. You know, but now they have a mess going and you know, it doesn't look so much like a witch hunt after all. I mean they're coming at it doesn't. Yeah, and it's saying you know, when you can believe the prostitutes over the president with a different time. This is real everything unlike what you just said. Yeah, what is happening? I trust everything? What is going on? You know, Look, she told the truth. Both of them told the truth. Here's a deal. I got Trump trying to pay him off. Yeah. Yeah, but see here the part people talking about the campaign violations. He married, he trying to keep this way from Milania. See y'all keep talking about the politics. Damn that his wife. Yeah, he's trying to keep this way from this woman at this house because he he he is straight hell right now at all This woman came out and said she'd been in the house. Yeah. Yeah, ain't no woman cool with that? You had you had this blank in the house. Yeah, this blank been in my house. And you're feel in any words you want to most of them start would be the other start with h. It's word to put it in. Yeah. Yeah, that's good point. That's a good point, Steve, because it is it does get personal at that point. You know, it does get personally because we don't know what goes behind goes on behind closed doors. And you know his wife was upset, just like Hillary Clinton was upset at Bill Clinton with Monica Lewinski. By that, you know, he catching yes at the house. You're right, he catching Hale at the house, Hall at the White House. Can go all right, Well that's the big breaking news today. I'm sure MS and will have more on this, and we'll be back with more.

I've been going for we know, I'm like going at the same time. Actually, but if they want to be kind of fun, how are you guys want to do it all? Right? Uh? In entertainment News today, Kevin Hart maybe staring at a Trump supporter boycott. He might be targets like his movies, maybe a target of a boycott by President Trump supporters. That is after Kevin took some verbal shots at Trump during Monday night's MTV v M as Kevin was presenting with his Night School co stars Tiffany Hattish when he told the audience that they were allowed to kneel, a dig at Trump's criticisms of NFL players who kneeled during the National Anthem to protest police brutality. Take a listen. Understand that we're live coast to coast right now. I'm looking at this like his game day people, or do not worry because at this game, you guys are allowed to kneel. You can do what happen to hell? You want? There's no old white man that can stop you? Do it? Kevin? We love so so the Trump supporters want to boycott him because of that, Steve, can you imagine it's a damn joke. Yeah, it was a joke and he's a comedian. Well now, Trump supporters were all over Twitter after that, including one who tweeted Kevin Hart the decline starts. Now it's all downhill from here. What Yeah, because he wrote a joke about your present in a country that allows free speech. I don't get it. I do know. So, ain't no Democrats going to the movie we ain't support and Independence? Yeah? Exactly. The majority of the Republicans did not see that. I just want to point that out. This is crazy. Uh. In other news, entertainment news shout out to a Rod Okay fans are still buzzing on social media saying that a Rod is the boyfriend of the year. We all saw a Rod. He was just he was just all a glow. When Jennifer Lopez on Monday Night at the b m AS was you know, she was performing after her tribute, and he was just looking like, I'm so in love with you and I think she's a better person for it. Steve. We've talked about love earlier, in different levels of it, and yeah, I saw it was good. It was really good for both of them. Yeah, I think it's good for both of them too, because I think they're equally yoked. I really do. And I don't know anything too much about them personally. I like both of them personally, even though you know, I've I've never met a Rod, U been around him some business talk, but met Jennifer Lopez, talked with a couple of times. I've just always liked it. I just think she's a cool person. I think she's finally gotten it right, and I think he did too. And from the outside looking in, they look like two happy people, very happy. It's a shame that social media is the way it is because they be hate. I don't care what you do, so you got to ignore that. I just I think they look happy. Well they I don't know why we start being happy for people who all have Well, they got it right this time, Steve. On social media, they're they're nominating a Roid a Rod for the Boyfriend of the Year because of how loving I'm talking about some people. Surely you ain't read all of them. Somebody that says something I trust if you think girl, somebody against it. But for the most part they loved how he was, you know, just ain't playing baseball. What is he doing there? I go to Steve Harvey comment had to make more and to get more entertain him at news. All right, all right, Steve, at this time we get caught up on today's headlines. Please introduced Smith and ladies and gentlemen, miss and Tripp. Thank you, Steve. Good morning everybody out there. This is a trip with the news. President Trump's former campaign chairman has been convicted on eight out of eighteen federal charges launched against him. President Trump calls the verdict unfair. Paul Manifold was found guilty of filing false income tax returns, bank fraud, and other things. Manaforts lawyer Kevin Downing says his client is not exactly a happy camper. Mr Manaford is disappointed of not getting acquittals all the way through or a complete hung jury on all accounts. However, when the verdict is a split like this, it's very very often there's an appeal. Prosecute has built their case around charges that Manaford had had hit millions of dollars like around sixty million, by laundering the money by way of fraudulent bank loans. No sentencing date has been sent. By the way, this is just one of Manaforts trials. He faces another trial on some other charges next month in Washington, d c. Meanwhile, President Trump's former personal attorney, Michael Cohen played guilty yesterday to eight federal charges, including five counts of tax evasion, one count of falsifying paperwork to a bank, to council making excessive campaign contributions. All of that relate to the hush money he says he paid out to women who had affairs with Donald Trump, Even though Deputy U S Attorney Robert Casimi didn't exactly name names, he worked to pay money to silence two women who had information that he believed would be detrimental to the two thousand and sixteen campaign and to the candidate and the campaign. In addition, Mr Cohen saught reimbursement UH for that money by submitting invoices to the candidate's company which were untrue and false. By the way, President Trump has denied having affairs with those women. Here we go again, a white woman called police on a black man in downtown Milwaukee last week, accusing him of breaking into a car. Was the black man's CA own car. The victim, name of Corvin Tay Davis, says he was getting into his car when the lock jammed on one side of the vehicles, so he prepared to get into the car by the other side, okay, by the passenger door, and he heard this white woman shouting, are you breaking into that car? He videotaped the woman in the tastes been viewed by at least forty thousand times so far. Cops came, He verified that it was his car, and he looked around for the white woman she had left. Two women in Missouri say they would deny Johns because the company said they had quote ghetto names. Dernisia Zachary and Milla Tina Burnette say the firm and Question actually sent them offensive emails that read and quart quote. Unfortunately, we do not consider candidates that have suggestive ghetto names. Good luck, and finally, today is National be an Angel Day. Here's up Steve Harvey Nation.

Uh you have to get a call back on that. But tell me a little bit about just a little well, well, what it is that we would You know, we've been trying to get married for a long time. We've had a lot of difficulties with it and never really really found the right church that we thought would be a good place to get married. You know, I think it's it's you gotta feel it in your heart that this is the best place to get married, you know what I mean. So, uh, you know, like I said, we've been in your church, uh quite a few times, maybe about four or five times, and and we have, you know, both agreed that this would be the perfect place for us to get married. You remember at Mount No sir, No, sir, I'm not like I said, I visited you know, we've visited four or five times. We really liked it, and we just were sold on trying to get married at the church. We'll go through the council four to six weeks once a week, and uh we can talk about the rest of it at another time, okay, okay, And after that then you're saying we'll be prepared to get married. Then I'm would think, so, yeah, yeah, no problem. How soon were you talking about Well, like I said, we were trying to do it in the February.

Take to coming right off. Chah, let's go and hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is a strawberry letter. Thank you nephew. Subject, how well do you know your neighbors? Dear Stephen Shirley. I've been married to a wonderful man for almost thirty years. He's an excellent father and provider. But over the years I have spent a lot of time alone in my marriage. At one point I was very lonely. There was a lot of love and kindness, but no passion. A neighbor and I would talk occasionally, and he picked up on my extreme loneliness and saw that I was vulnerable. He used it to his advantage and we ended up having sex. I'm not placing all of the blame on my neighbor, because I am a grown woman and I knew better. Loneliness was no used to step out on my marriage. My neighbor and I had our little fling for two months, and then he started avoiding me. I was glad it was over and I put it behind me. Well. Now, a year later, my neighbor has started contacting me again for sex. I told him that I'm no longer in that dark place in my marriage and I'm not interested in cheating on my husband. He told me that he would not take no for an answer. He has been quiet, Tommy. He has been continually texting me and calling my cell phone. After I had ignored him for a few days, he got desperate and threatened to send pictures to my husband. He said he has pictures of me naked and pictures of us having sex. He said he will text these pictures to my husband if I keep refusing to have sex with him. I don't know what to do. I had no idea that he took pictures of me. He may just be bluffing, but I can't take that risk. He disgust me and don't want him to touch me ever. Again, I'm really afraid of this man. Now what should I do? Yeah, this is really serious. You don't have a whole lot of options here because you know, first of all, definitely don't do this. Don't give in to him. Okay, don't give into his whole blackmail thing. Don't do that. He discussed you, He discussed me too. Um My instincts say though about the pictures and about him texting them to your husband, that he could be bluffing, because why did he wait so long to bring them out? You know, there's a lot that you left out of the letter, um, that you didn't tell us. But the question then becomes, is that a chance you're willing to take to Paul his bluff? It's just so strange that you left the part of the letter out about a whole year going by and you guys having no contact and your neighbors. You know, he was avoiding you at first, So I mean that that's just interesting. It's rather odd. I mean you I had no contact, no side eye when you came out of the house and he came out of the house at the same time. No glances exchanged, no words exchange, no texting within a whole year. It's just odd. I mean, you know I have to tell you that. I think I don't know. I might have to just write this one out and definitely not tell my husband until you absolutely have to or not. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you to do besides move or something. Steve, you ain't got to move. You ain't got to move, She hold on, let me go through the letter, but let me this might not even take the whole damn break. Okay. I spent a lot of time my loan, my marriage. At one point I was lonely. Love and kindness but no passion. Neighbor I talked. He picked up on my extreme loneliness, and he saw that I was vulnerable. He used it to his advantage and we ended up having sex. He you, you told him this for a reason. You add this for a reason. You you like you said, yo letter, You've grown. I'm not placing all the blame on my neighbor because I'm grown woman and I knew better. Yeah, okay, so take that part out your damn letter. You just have sex with the man because you wanted to. He didn't take advantage of nothing. You told him you was lonely, you liked the attention you was getting. He was looking at you with passion, and you like that look in his eye. So now y'all had sex. Okay, done, Okay, Loneliness was no excuse step out of my marriage. My neighbor and I had our little fleeing for two months, and then he started avoiding me. Now, let's talk about this, right. He started avoiding you? Why because someone found out? Now, it's two reasons he started avoiding you. One somebody found out, or it wasn't good no more. Them the two reasons. Somebody found out or it wasn't good no more. You avoid a person to not be in that situation, to stop any doubt or questions or anything. Or either it just wasn't good. I don't think it wasn't it wasn't good. Part. I think somebody was getting close because he your neighbor who he lived with, Uh see where his wife where his significant other? Because he got one, So either the wife or a significant other was questioning him. I was glad it's went over and I put it behind me. Were Now a year later, my neighbor has started contacting me again for sex. I told him, I'm no longer in that dog place in my marriage and I'm not interested in cheating on my husband. You should just say again because you already done cheated on your man, but you're no longer interest cheating. Okay, you came to yourself. He told me he would not take no for an answer. What what you dinna? Do you canna take it? Because you just said no? So what's the next movie he gonna take it? He's continually texting me and calling my cell phone. After I knowed him for a few days, he got desperate and threatened to see him pictures to my husband. He said he got pictures me necking and pictures of having sex. He said he's gonna text these pictures to my husband if I keep refusing to have sexually sending the damn pictures, send it. Call his bluff, tell him to send it. After he's sending this picture to your husband, What do you think your husband gonna do? Send it a matter of fact, called him back and say, you ain't gotta send it. I'm gonna tone it. He on the way over there. Hang on, Steve, hang on, send it you is gonna take more than one break all right, and we're gonna have part of two of your response coming up and spend it after the hour subject how well do you know your neighbor? I wish you are. We'll be back at after you're listening, Steve show. All right, Steve, come on, let's recap today's strawberry letters. This woman was lonely had sex with her next do neighbor. He took advantage of It's real simple. She was lonely. She got involved with the next door neighbor. They had sex. They had a fleeing for two months, she stopped. They hadn't talked for a year.

But um, that's a new study. Office workers are only productive for three days a week, and productivity levels sink to just two and a half days at hot weather. This is according to new research of poor night's sleep is the biggest cause of an unproductive day, followed by being too hot in the office and being surrounded by distracting colleagues, boredom, personal issues or two or I love this one. You're just playing out too drunk to work a right, right, Okay, Okay, I don't know what we do. You play the best drunk guy right, exactly. Alright.

I got to Okay, I go out there, Nick and n that's gonna go viral. What you're from start doing? Man? Yeah, tell us about what you know? Man. I met Marco Borges and um I had him on my show when Chicago, but I didn't do nothing with it. And now I was talking to June Ambrose, a friend of Marjorie's who's a vegan and she's also Jay's uh stylish, really really really cool girl. Had a chance to spend a lot of time with her, talking with her and her husband over there. Now she was just talking about being a vegan and everything. And you know, I'm not gonna be a vegan, but I'm I'm gonna. I'm gonna, I'm gonna give it a shot for this two day program. I may extend it, but I'm gonna really give my system a breaking, really really give him up. Put to enough greens in my body. And I've already started. And I was gonna wait till I came from the d R and do it, uh September, but I just went on to say, now I'm just gonna go on it, yeah, because I mean, I'm not that good at waiting and delaying. So I've already started. This is my um my started my journey this morning. So what did that tell? What did you do? Just just plant base? Uh, I'm only eating stuff that comes out to ground right now. And you know I'm not gonna say vegan the rest of my life because I'm probably not gonna do that, But I am going to give my system a great reboot and start things over again. And you know, I got some unwanted pounds I want to lose, and um, I'm gonna share the ride with y'all on my TV show as I got I wouldn't did this uh scan, what's the name of that scan? Yeah? I did this body scan and this part of the program and J and B did it and use damn big as me z and yeah, and you know I did not as big as me, either one of them or both of that yellow him that big. But you know, you know when you get the scan and they tell you what percentage of your body is fat, and you get this scan and you can see what your muscles is, your fat is, and your bony is. Yeah, I got a nice amount of muscle, but who I got some fat on my hands. I didn't know that was fat. So I got fat behind my stomach muscles. No no fish either though, No, just plant based for one. Nothing. But you know what, it's not that difficult people. You know, I can't do that for no twenty one days. Yes you can, but right well, I don't have it, have him yet, but her will that help? You know, Margee and I we're doing it together, which is making it easy. And she said, baby, our help because best cool with a teammate because I'll be sitting up there eating health and my girl would have smothered poke chops with gravy. And that's salad just ain't gonna look because it never did, you get. It reminds me of Over the weekend, Steve, I was watching some of the coverage from Aretha Franklin and she was talking about her battles with weight and everything, and she was saying, one of the problems was Aretha Franklin the Queen of soul anyway you know she was talking about. This was an interview she had done, of course, earlier on in her career when she was struggling with her weight, and the interviewer, I think was Ed Bradley. He was asking her, um, you know, about her weight and everything, and she was saying that after a big performance, she said, I'm sorry, a carrot just isn't gonna do. And that's what it reminded me of when you said a salad doesn't look good when Marjorie's sitting there eating smothered pork shops. But Aretha said she needed a meal. You know, she needed a substantial meal. She burned a lot of energy. Well, you know, but we also can't become slaves to our tone if we were to get healthy, And so I just decided to stay away from anything processed and meet for a while. You know, I'm never gonna stop barbecuing and stuff like that, but for right now though, I'm in a good place. And when I go back to TV on the third, I'm gonna do the program and let everybody follow along. But you'll be able to follow me on Steve Harvey dot com as I do this journey, and if you want to join in, I'll show you how to do it very very inexpensive way to really really get healthy. You know, I'm getting older, man, I just won't get healthy. And I got some goals. I'm not gonna share that with time because of you. Uh well, we have to go anyway. When we come back, we're gonna find out what is going on with Alma Rosa and CNN. We'll find out when we come back. Right after this, you're listening to Steve Show. All Right, Stevell, you talked about Alma Rossa yesterday as a possible guest here on this show. I said I wasn't gonna he's he asked us. Yeah, don't don't drag me in this mess. Well, you you brought it up. What are you talking about? You probably asked you a question. Yeah, Well that's all I said. I didn't say I'm gonna have on the show. I said, possible guests. Did you hear I'm not letting They're not doing this to me no day. Why you gotta fight it to the nail? You everything? You putting me up down? No Modo asked me about nothing. I don't give a damn where you stay. Well, anyway, according to page six, it looks like almar Rossa might be banned from CNN. While she's been all over MSNBC talking about her book promoting her book Unhinged, she hasn't been able to get a bite from CNN, and Insider said Don Lemon was offered one of the first cable interviews he passed on it um. Almar Rossa was scheduled to do Jake Tapper State of the Union, but CNN canceled that appearance and CNN has no comment. They just have no I don't knowbody won't eat well anyway, So it comes bitter Shirley. She always be bitter, seeming like CNN. Well, I I don't know if it's if I would call it bitter, Tommy, but she does seem to be on the defensive. She thinks, I think you know that people are coming for her because of what she did and who she was associated with, and it's still associated with even though you know she's turned, she's she's turned a new leaf, so to speak. She was a racist. He was a racist after she left. Now she didn't know that when she was over that. Well. Yeah, so those are some of the questions we could ask if she was she was had a job, Yeah, absolutely, he didn't become a racist till after she lost her job. Yeah. But you know that you ain't heard about this book, will no way? I said on these charts. Yeah, I tried to find it. I tried to find you know where her book was on the New York Times bestseller list on all of that. Did you look at the list? Yeah it didn't, it didn't come up, Tommy out Ye, yes, it's been out for a week, Today makes a week or yesterday made a week? I should say Tuesday made a week? Book? Is it that Bs and Noble? But on Amazon it's number fifteen, So there you go. Anyway, come out a little stronger than that. So we don't know what's going on with CNN. They've made no comment, no comment. She should have put it on it fly one more thing, But Tommy, get your resume together, because if there's ever a movie made about Armor Rossa, you never know he's gonna there might be a part for you. There might be a part for you. But Devicka Fox says she won't be playing onmar Rosa. Uh. She was asked about it, Vivica A. Fox was She almost choked when when they asked her, she said, of course. The only way a biopic would be made is if unhinged cells. Well, uh, and so far we can't find it, you know, on any of the charts. We mentioned that because we did look um if not. Vivicka says that Alma Rosa is going to have to ride up into the sunset on a donkey because she's attached herself to an A S S. Can can I'm answer me? Can em come back? To the black community. So what can Emma Rossa come back and be accepted by the black community. That's a question. Yeah, I don't nobody in my family. I can't speak for other black fami, but this one over here, well, you know, we're very forgiving. We're very forgiving people. Race still can't come over. We'll be back with more than Steve Harvey Boarding show right after you're listening to Steve Show. All right, Junior and Tommy, this story is for you guys. Um, some college kids, Um, they were kind of broke. You know, they're in college, so they don't have a lot of money. Of course they may have hit the motherload. Though. Police and Georgia are looking for the thieves who stole a trailer filled with nine eight thousand dollars worth of Ramen noodles. They're gonna be slang on them, yeah. The Fayette County Sheriff's office says it was parked and left at a gas station for about a week and when the driver returned, the trailer and the noodles were gone.

Four packages of that stolen? That stuff was good and school. I ain't gonna lie, But how can you tell the stolen ones from the people who already had Raymond rama noodles? You got me because somebody's gonna be selling ten packs for a dollar special on them. But isn't it how that's how much you costing the stories? We don't know? Packs four dollars? Glad asking me and that two or three dollars? You're gonna make money if you stole them? Ship? Okay, well that's the point, right, there's the prophet. Yeah, you ain't never had none? Yes, I've had Rama noodles before? Were Tommy? You have? Yes? So you have Hamburger hip, Yes, I've had Hamburger helper, what do you truy? Yes, I've had keep on my hand over him. Whatever?

He's asking you a question I'm allergic to having pold discussion. Oh you can't eat hamburger helper, no moment. But wait, you noticed I only said Junior and Tommy. You noticed that right nowhere. I've had so much of that I refrained from talking about. Don't ask me nothing about that. Don't ask me nothing about no damn spam. Don't ask me nothing about Vienna sausages. I don't want to hear nothing about that big long roll or bologne with that red rap only. Oh that was good, especially with your fried boy. I don't want to hear nothing about no damn powdered mills, government cheese, none of that, huss Steve a good grilled cheese. And it's the best nachos too. Sure when you melt that down, whoa, you got yourself something. Wow? He don't forgot where he came from. Now, he don't remember eating hamburger him. All right, listen we'll be back to close out the show. One more break. Steve's rich as eating fried lemons. Now you don't know he don't he came. Yeah, he had that in pairs. He told us about it. We'll be back to close after show. Regular you don't know where to get and Steve's closing remarks coming up at forty nine after the hour you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, we are back. It is time to close out the show, our last break of the day. You have some closing remarks for us. I want to talk about something Tommy sent me the other day, and Uh, it caused me to think about how some people get stuck in their life. And I want to say to everybody, you don't have to stay stuck. You don't have to allow a situation, uh, to be so daunting that you can't see moving beyond, because you have to. You have to move beyond things in life. I was having a conversation with somebody and I was telling them that it's imperative that you understand the things that you cannot change. Uh, there's a scripture that tells that so eloquently. Of course I don't know it. I tell you where it is as often as the case with me. But I do have it in my heart and I do understand it. But there are there's a scripture that talks about moving on and and and being in a position of accepting the things you cannot change. And you know if if if prayer doesn't change a thing or will not change a thing, even though we all know prayer changes things. It's some things that you don't even have to pray for because God told us he wouldn't change it. For example, time and tide weights on no man. Well that's he told you that. So ain't no need of a group of y'all getting together holding hands, telling my Lord stop the clock at eleven o'clock so we can finish this task in your name heavily, Father, Now stop, he said, Time and tide waits on no man. So the things that prayer ain't gonna change because he told us some things won't won't change like that, you got to accept and move on and accepting the things that happened in your life are a big part of it. You get stuck when you lose the ability to move on, and staying stuck don't help you at all. And I'll give you an example. What he sent me was this. He said, This plaque says, stop looking for happiness in the same place that you lost it. It has moved on. You know, happiness moves on every relationship. Don't stay a healthy relationship. Every situation you in that was happy at one time, it can turn sad. You're gonna keep looking for happiness in the same place that you lost it. You have got to move on. And I'm feeling side for yourself. You're not the first person somebody that left. You ain't the first person that the lost somebody you love. You're not the first person who someone has disappointed. You're not the first person being cheated on. You're not the first person who has lost faith in another person. You ain't the first person been lied to. You're not You're not the only one I got that things in life are hurt for We've all been hurt before. I think I don't know a person that ain't been hurt. I don't think I know a person ain't been disappointed. I don't know anybody ain't self of a setback. I don't know anyone who hasn't found something difficult to get over, including myself. But I tell you right now, like the plaque say, you can stop looking for happiness in the same place you lost it. Sometimes it's gone. He ain't the one for you, but you want him back. He wasn't good for you when you had him, but I want him back. Why would you want back something that wasn't good for you in the first place? Man, Can we move on? Give God a chance to put something real in your life by stop wanting something that wasn't good in your life. Stop? Man, some people don't even know how to accept a blessing. We block more blessings wanting something that ain't good or write for us, stopping something that would be good for us. Stop when we're gonna get that through our heads. You know how many times I've had to learn this lesson. Stop, Stop wanting something that ain't good for you. Stop wanting something back that wasn't right for you. Stop, move on. Give something new a chance in your life. When one door closes in your life, could that possibly mean God got something better for you? Couldn't it possibly be that? Do you think just because the door closes that that means it's finally over and ain't no more nothing gonna happen for you. Because the dose shut don't mean your life is done. You didn't die, You suffer the disappointment. You got fired, you got laid off. She texts you and toldy she wants you no more. He didn't show up no more, he quit calling. You thought it was good. It wasn't stop looking for happiness in the same place you lost it. It's probably time to move on. Those are my clothing, me marks your so yourself. I'll all right, Steve, I just sometimes that sometimes be talking to myself. Why why you won't thatt back? That's all right? To please to your and Chris asking God for all.
