Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all all soon looking back to back down, giving them back, just like amazing buck bus things. And it's tough, y'all, do me true good. It set hardy this one to move to each other for stubby. Why don't you joy yeah by joining me. Honey. You gotta use that turn. Yeah, you gotta turn you to turn love, to turn my love. You got to turn out to turn turn water the water. Y'all, comey, come on your things. Uh huh, I sure will. A good morning everybody, y'all listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now, one and only Steve Harley got a radio show. We got a good for you today. I was thinking about on the way in. You know, yesterday was a really, really trying day for me. There's a lot of work yesterday and I was up. I've gotten so tired at one point man that But you know, I mean, I mean, I had no one to to to explain it to. You know, mom. The fellas that travel with me, they just go, they just go. You know, they know where I gotta be. They get me in place, you know, blah blah blah. But you know, you know, right about when I'm about to complain about it out loud, I also find all of the incredible reasons that I have to be grateful, and it kind of slows down to complain it a little bit. Now, I'm not saying that our days. Man, why I don't verbalize my fatigue or I don't verbalize my man I wish I didn't have to work so hard, or man, but but but but but yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. But when I get through with that, I have so many reasons to be grateful that it does slow it down, you know, And sometimes it might the majority terms just flat out stops it because I end up laughing at myself because, you know, it's so many things are happening to me beyond my belief, beyond what I asked God for. So there's just some extreme blessings going on in my life. But man, man o, man o, man have I paid? And that that's the part I want to talk to you about today. You know, see a lot of people look at other people and they see what they think is the finished product. They don't realize that all of us, no matter who we are, are still a work in progress. That I have many flaws, that I have many problems and have many situations that come up, you know, just like anybody else. You know, I'm no different from that, you know. You know, life happens for me just like it happens for you. It may happen in different ways, but just like you know, if it's something comes up at an inconvenient time for you, it pops up for me. You know, if something happens for me that seems unfair, I know that it's happening to somebody else unfairly. But you know, um, I find myself being grateful the majority of the time. I can't say all the time because I'm a human being, and sometimes I find myself complaining about it all, you know, But but I try, for the most part to stay grateful, to stay focused, and it allows me to keep the wheels churning. But now I wanna I want to share something with you about your road to success. You know you've heard me say this probably a hundred times now. The road to success is always under construction, it really is. So here's here's what I want you to expect on your way to changing, on your way to becoming successful, on your way to achieving your goals on your way to getting better. I want you to expect many difficulties. Once again, the road to con the road to success is always under construction. I want you to expect many difficulties. But here is the deal between successful people and non successful people. It's how they deal with the difficulties. That's the only difference. It's how you deal with the difficulties, how you handle the setbacks, how well you get up after you've been knocked down. That's happening to all of us, none of us, none of us are exempt from that. You're going to fall, You're going to be pushed, you're going to be run over, You're going to be tackled, you are going to be lied about. You are going to have setbacks. That's a part of the journey. But how do you handle them? How well do you do you handle everything? See? I want you to understand something. When you set out to be successful, he is difficult. Pet Pablo, who have probably people? What is he about to quote? Pete Pablo? He had a uh a rap album out called Diary of a Cinner, and it was really, man my favorite rap album of all time because he said some things about his life that I could so relate to. I can't think of the name of the song right now, but there is a lyric a stands in one of his songs that says, I had a half a tank of gas, two cigarettes, scraping up change in an ash tray, and a voice said, it's only a test of my faith. It said, I had a half a tank of gas, two cigarettes, scraping up change in an ash tray, but a voice said it was only a test of my faith. Here's a deal your faith, which is the belief in things that you cannot see. When you say I'm going to make it, I'm going to be successful at it. I'm going to finish college. I'm going to achieve my goal. I'm going to be a better husband. I'm going to be a better father. I'm going to be a better wife. I'm going to be a better mother. I'm going to be a better student. I'm going to be rich. I'm going to start do and more for other people. I'm going to help the less fortunate. Whatever you say when you're sending that prayer up, when you declare that faith, the devil hears your prayer to Now a sad thing about the devil is. He's busy seven and he has people that works for him. It's some imps out there that ain't up to no good. You all know them. You've all run across them. They always putting shade on somebody. They always barking at somebody. They always knocking somebody down. These people that they just busy for Satan. What you gotta be careful of is that occasionally you don't become one of those people. See so when these people, when when the devil hears is prayer that you set up or what you're gonna be successful at, then your faith is going to be tested. He got people man to come in there and try to knock you off that course. So you can get on back to this old woe is me. I ain't gonna ever be nothing. The uh man seemed like every time I try to get back up, I getting knocked right back. Now, once he gets you saying that enough times, then he can start implementing some other programs. Come on, man, let's sell this dope. We can't get no job. Now here you go. You're off track. You're going you other way. Now he got you, He got you tied up. Now to the port where he can get you locked up, or he can get your killed and lose your soul. So now he had worked busy he all day. What you got to be mindful of is that your faith will be tested, that it's going to be difficult to get to where you are, and you got to stay in prayer all the time, talking to your creator about strengthening you for the journey. You have to be strengthened for the journey. That's all you're asking for, because the journey is the journey. You can stop asking God to remove all these problems in these situations because it ain't gonna happen these out of test of our faith. This determines how bad you want it. What I'm saying to you this morning is stay focused, stay prayerful, stay on point, get ready for him. Understand that it's just to test to your faith. That your faith will be tested. But you got to stay the course. Man, You got to stay the course. It's all right, you will be fine in due time, but you gotta give some of this stuff a chance to play itself out. Because nothing lasts forever. Ain't no pain forever, all right. I'm just trying to help you with that, because boy, I'm dealing with it all the time. Stay prayerful. God got help for you. All right, let's go to ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, people all around the world, please gather yourselves around the radio, because things are about to, in the words of them, pop off. We would like to have your undivided attention as we partake on the rather scrupulous journey of rhetoric. A foolish schnish laughtery and harbachery. Oh, I think the word is delbauchery. But when you heard ready, either one of them will suffice. Ladies and gentlemen. Mr Steve Harvard Morning Show, you invited to come along. I'm Steve, this Shirley, Hey, just call them.

There's been another shooting, this time in northern California. Took place yesterday. Authar say that five people were killed yesterday, including the shooter, and that ten others were wounded. After that, gunman went on a shooting rampage that involved an elementary school. Officials say the gunman was armed with a semi automatic rifle in a rural community about a hundred fifty miles northwest of Sacramento. They say he opened fire at seven different locations, shooting randomly at neighbors passers by into homes, but the local sheriff says his deputy's got him. I'm personally grateful to those men for engaging such a terrible a mass murder. Really, that's what he is. Sheriff Phil Johnson says that the gunman, who now is identified as Kevin Jansen Neil, stole and crashed a neighbor's vehicle, whom he killed. Apparently killed the neighbor and his wife that he had been feuding with them for years. Then he opened fire on a local elementary school, but the teachers jumped in and closed all the doors so he couldn't get in. He also stole a second vehicle before deputies caught up with him. National Republicans calls for about My Judge Roy Moore to get out of the U. S. Senate race getting louder and louder, their accusations now from at least five women claiming that he's sexually assaulted them when they were only teenagers.

Roy Moore should step aside. The women who come forward are entirely incredible. He's obviously not fit to be in the United States Center, and McConnell says he's looking at ways to keep that from happening, just in case he's elected. By the way, the Republican National Committees now pull its financial support from Roy Moore's campaign. Associated Press reports that Donald Trump and co. Have been nominating white men to serve on the nation's federal courts at a rate not seen in almost thirty years. A P says, so far Trump's fifty eight nominees are men, three out of four white.

All right here we are? Okay, Well, this question has been going on for the last three breaks here. Uh yeah, we asked the question about emotional cheating. It's turned into this. We're all single on the show, so amongst us, we're trying to figure out who would the ladies pick amongst the guys on the show, and who would the guys pick amongst the ladies. Now, Junior picked Monica, Tommy picked Carla, and uh, I didn't really get picked. I think I got picked by the I was the only one left, so I guess Steve picked me. Thanks a lot. But now now it's the girls time. Yeah, I'm going to regret saying this. Oh god, the turtle. We don't even like him, I know, So it won't be long a break up that we do do I was gonna say Junior, but he won't be But look like you, nobody picked me. Come, we're going, We're going to Cobo. Now I'm stuck with a high. Yeah, I think she lying. We're gonna be balling up. Why do you think I'm lying? Well, because you really pick me? No, I don't eat pig. He picked all three of us. Yeah, no, no, no, See, it ain't trying to be a mat What did you say to him? How many likes may like your facial features? She picked you. She called you a turtle. She said the turtle. She didn't even say timing, She said turtle, ever turt But every woman understands that. Though women understand that, because you have to like who likes you, you gotta go with that. Sometimes. No, I wouldn't have went with that. Didn't you pick Monica? And you said you hope she picked you? Didn't you just yea, Yeah, it's the same thing in the room. Yeah, yeah, sure, I'm picking Steve, he's rich. I mean, come on, really, really, guys, really really? Oh, she goes straight to the boy. Really, guys, really, come on, really, that's not I don't care about its facial features. Now, thank you, Mama, she said, boy, if you dress nice and make enough money, ain't nobody gonna worry about the face. Mama came through for me. She over there, rich, you over here with you because he won't at less. She got picked. Okay, I didn't get picked at least to go to the Viking cooking class. You're rich. You can hire a cook who cares. So what have we learned? That we're all very shallow, that we will lie through, even all the girls will lie in the world called could be happy with the turd. And this is where we have learned that Monica and Junior will probably start a relationship. I think, yeah, yeah, you don't know how to take care that board. You need a lot of medicine. Stay at it. Yeah, you can't see the balls. All right, come on, let's get to this letter. More drama. Buggle up, hold on tight, we got it for you here. It is a Strawberry letter. Thanks Tommy. Subject life interrupted. Good morning, Steve, Tommy and Shirley. I am a thirty six year old, beautiful black woman with three children, a good job, and a nice home. My man of ten years, forty years old in parentheses, has lost his mind. He has brought his forty year old legally blind friend home to live with us. I understand that this is his best friend, but we just took on his sixteen year old son from a previous relationship. I'm okay with the son because he is there every week end and holidays anyway, and uh, I've learned to love him like one of my own. My problem is now this man. He is drunk a lot, not that clean, and can't really see the toilet, so he misses all the time. My man claims he can't do much for himself, but he can make it to the box, but he can make it to the bar. Me and the children end up doing for him while my man works. He also invades our private time, wanting to go hang out or watch sports. I can't even dress the way I want anymore because he makes me uncomfortable. I've expressed my concerns to my man, but it just makes us fight all the time. I've tried everything to help him move on, but he won't. I even helped him get a social security get social security and signed him up for public housing. But he won't go, and my man won't force him. He seems to care more for this man than he does me. Right now, I don't know what to do. I don't want to lose my man. He is good to me and the kids, but his friend has to go. Please help me. Signed Life interrupted, dear life interrupted. Put him out. He definitely needs to go. You cannot have this kind of foolishness in your house, missing the toilet when he uses the restroom. Uh. And you know you're feeling uncomfortable when you get when you get dressed, and he's legally blind to your so called man is allowing this. And here's a question to you after ten years, Um, what are you and this man doing anyway? Um, he's messing up your nice home. And you're right, he has lost his mind. You in no way should have to deal with anything like this. Your man has put his friend and his needs before you and the kids. So right now I disagree with you. He is not being a good man. You say he is. I say he's not. You know, when you help people it's usually for a little while, like a couple of days, you know, a few days, maybe a couple of weeks, something like that. This man has come in and invaded your home, so you and your man need to get together seriously talk about it. Immediately put this man out. I'm sorry, you gotta put him out because he's messing up your home and there's no way you should be uncomfortable in your own home. And if your man doesn't want to put this other man out, then maybe it's time for you and your man to break up as well, and your man go his separate way. Steve, we don't have time. We'll be back, and you've got a lot to say. I got a whole another angle I don't really kill. And for those of you that like emailing because one of my jokes that went too far, get to your computers and sit down and get ready to that tight The letter is supposed to go to Steve Harvey dot com and click on the Strawberry Letter. We'll be back twelve after you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Come on Steve with your response to part two of today's Strawberry Letter. What you got and You've got enough time for this letter man, that really, because I've discovered a whole lot, but life interrupted. Good mornings to you, Tommy Sherley. I'm a thirty six year old, beautiful black woman with three children, a good job in a nice home. My man of ten years, forty years old has lost his mind. He has bought his forty year old legally blind friend home to live with us. I understand that this is his best friend, but we just took it as six year old something from previous relationship. I'm okay with the some because he is that every weekend and holidays anyway, and I've learned to love him like one of my own. My problem is now this man. He is drunk a lot, not that clean, and Kate really see the tarlet, so he misses all the time. My man claims he can't do much for himself, but he can make it to the ball. Me and the children end up doing for him while my man at work. He also invades our private time, wanting to go hang out or watch sports. I can't even dress the way I want anymore because he makes me uncomfortable. I've expressed my concern to my man, but it just makes us fight all the time. I've tried everything to help him move on, but he won't. I even helped him get so security and sign him up for public housing, but he won't go, and my man won't force him. He seems to care more about this man than he does for me. Right now, I don't know what to do. I don't want to lose my man. He's good to me and the kids, but his friend has to go. Please help me sign life interrupted. First of all, before I say what I really want to say, what you are going to safe take Sherley's advice? Put him out, get on with your life if you're an ultimatum to your man, the man or your family, and don't make you no difference which one he picked. But one of us has got to go, and it ought to be the blind dude that he bought home. Okay, now that we got that out the way, let's go over some stuff. Is you really blind or ain't you blind? See you got to do some blind testing at your house, because see a lot of this stuff don't sound like you're talking about a blind man to me at all. Now he legally blind, I don't know what that means. Illegally or you illegally blind. Can you see or can't you see? I don't know the definition. So for those of you out there that like the type Steve when he's politically incorrect, once again gonna get the type. And because I don't really care on this one. Right here, we're talking about the dude that forty years old then came in this man's house with another for your old friends, and one of the damn friends can't see. Now they ain't fitting to be my problem. You got to work that out with the lord. But once you come in Steve Hoff and say you can't see, there's a couple of things need to quit happening. Though. First of all, he can't really see the toilet, so he missed all the time. Hell, I can see in sometime I miss But one thing my mama used to say, you might not be able to see, but you can hear, can't you Now listen to me. If you don't hear nold water splashing, you ain't in the right spot. You got to then make some type of adjustment left or right. If you never hear water splashes, you're being on the back of that little jacket that's on the I can have told it you're peeing on the third boy. Now that's for startus right there, so any man can miss sometime it's lit. What do you mean to give you that offshoot? Spring be a little piece of lint on you. Then next thing you know, it's just everywhere you're all appearing on the towels and stuff. You know what he means to it? You be trying to do. Sometimes you peeing all up on the medicine. You don't even be you got that little shoot. Sometimes you spray on the shower curtain of towels and the medicine. Yeah, I'm telling you right now, that's what you're way of that You get that lint on you at the wrong place, and you got some problems. Fellas out didn't know what I'm talking about. Please y'all pray for him. I said I was gonna do this when I'm trying not to because the dude is supposed to be blind. Then he say, your man claim he can't do much for herself. We're gonna find out if you can't do nothing for yourself, because when you're man and go to work, this is what you do. Dragon blind ass out on the porch and sit him on the porch until your man come home, and when he don't know where he at because he blind, tell him it's cooling here. We got the help all and breathe, we got to help and all the dose open. We're trying to add out cause you ain't watching your nasty behind, and we ain't watching you no more. It's a couple of things than you and the children end up doing for him while you're man at work. He also invades your private wanting to go hang out or watch sports. I thought you said he was blind. Now if he blind, why is we going to watch sports? Now? If you're watching sports and you blind, one of these things ain't got to happen. Sitting up in here, I got to tell you who got the ball, who just scored? And what color suit they got on? Do Lebron have on the red headband he just got on? Wrist beard? Today? Sitting up and then watching the game with somebody blind have me going through all this? And man, Carmela Show got a nice jump up. That ain't Carmela gonna send up, in arguable your blind behind. We're trying to watch sport. Then you send a bit time like you can't even dress the way you won't do anymore because he makes you uncomfortable. I thought you said he would have blind What is blind? Ass looking at you? Fault. You are to be able to walk in front of him naked and if he really blind, that's the See. That's why I say you got to start conducting some blind tests at your house. Put your pumps on, baby, and walk past him butt naked. And if he go, good, Lord of Mighty, put blind because there ain't nothing blind. See. I think you getting played and you can quit playing and all this hill. Get him down and get that social kid and put him right up in the project. Thank you, Steve. You know we gotta get out of here. Uh. Email or Instagram a's your thoughts on today's Strawberry Letter at my Girl, Shirley, don't forget tomorrow. Oh that's right tomorrow the Facebook Live after show with the Strawberry Letter Live. That's going to be with me at one thirty p m. Eastern time. Please join me. It's a lot of fun switching gears Now. GQ magazine, you guys heard about this, have announced its People of the Year Colin Kaepernick. That is another year for g Q. On the cover, Gal Gado you know her from um from a wonder Woman movie, and she's like a big feminist right now, Kevin Durant is one of them, and Stephen Colbert, they're gonna share the honors. Each one gets his her own title cover and cover story for the December issue. Now, Colin Kaepernick, uh did the photo shoot, but he didn't do the interview. Coming up next, we're gonna talk about Meek Mill. You guys heard about this case. It's a serious case. We'll talk about when we come back. You're listening to the Steve Show. So, Steve, this has been a big story. I don't know if you've heard about this or not, but supporters of Meek Mill gathered at the Criminal Justice Center in Philadelphia, UH, this past Monday for the Rally for Meek. Now, this is a call talking about rapper Meek Mill. This is a call for justice for Meek and and others. Earlier this month, Meek was sentenced to two to four years in prison for violating his probation. Okay, Now, according to TMZ, Meek Mill may have caught a huge break in this case because the judge that is presiding over the case, her name is Ganice Brinkley Judge Genie Brinkley. She's reportedly being investigated by the FBI UH for possibly having relationships in Philly, including UH with the local music mogul she allegedly asked Meek to sign with, as well as a possible extortionate demand. Meek's lawyer says Judge Brinkley asked Meek to do a remix to a boy's to men's song and to give her a shout out on the song, and that her harsh sentence the result of declining or chuckling at the request. And now it seems like she has a personal vendetta against Mek Mel. Yeah, so you got it. So this can't send this man to jail. First of all, what to violate his probation because he popped a wheelie and he broke up a fight. Yeah, that's violation. So if you're on probation, you you can't be any kind of citizen, not even a good one. So you have to be oatmeal. If you see a fight, you don't go nowhere near because you're on probation. If you you see some kids, you can't entertain him with a wheel stands. You have to be a non existent human being on probation. But since you didn't give me a shout out on this song that I asked you too, now I'm gonna sit you down for two to four years. Are you serious? Yeah? I mean it's so serious. This horrible injustice. It really is. Jay z dr J, Kevin Hart, Rick Ross, Philadelphia seventies Sixers co owner Michael Rubin and many players from the seventies Sixers and the Eagles, Colin Kaepernick. They all, um, you know, have been in support of Meek Mill. And then recently, CNN political commentator Van Jones was on the Wendy Williams Show. He's been on our show. We know Van Jones. This is what he had to say about the issue. Take a listen. It is absolutely outrageous. This is one of the worst things I've seen. I've never heard of the case where a brother is standing before a judge. The prosecutor says, do not put this brother in jail. The probation office says, do not put this brother in jail, and for some reason, the judge says, I'm gonna put him in jail anyway. The judge is supposed to be neutral. Listen to the defense. Let's to the prosecutor and come down in a neutral way. The judge is the only person in the building who wants the brother locked up. That's wrong, that's not that's not supposed to be that way. As long you know what the thing is, you do something in nineteen years old, whoever it was silly, nobody lost their life. You've been on probation for twelve years. You and I couldn't be oprobation for twelve years without doing something that nobody was going to criticize. So, but look at what he actually did. He popped a wheelie. He popped the wheelie trying to entertain kids. Should have done that, but he popped the wheelie. He got his wisdom to teeth, called out and got hooked on percoset, went to rehab, told him where he was going, but they got confused about that, and then he broke up a fight, and the police said that he did the right thing when they looked at the video. So breaking up a fight, popping a wheelie to entertain kids and getting off ter us, that don't make you a villain, that makes you a hero. You should not be in jail. Are you kidding me? What prosecutor says, do not put the man in jail. His job is to prosecute. When they tell you this is wrong, the the fist tells you this is wrong. The police come out and say he did the right thing. Why is he going to jail? Are you kidding me? And for her to have any insinuated ties. Look, I'm not the greatest person anywhere, but please let me throw my hat and our entire morning show had into the wing who is now in total support of meat meal.
