4:38You gotta turn. You gotta turn. You gotta turn. You gotta turn. You gotta turn. You gotta turn. You gotta turn. Come on. I show will. Come on in everybody. You all listen to the voice. Come on dig me now. I wanna know this. Steve Harvey. Got a radio show. Man.

5:38One more time. Steve Harvey got a radio show. Yeah, I do, man. I thank God for it every day. You know, my message this morning, man, is real clear. It's something that's been on me to share. And it's amazing. God can do some amazing things for you. But what happens along the way is, and I don't know what I mean to say, but. But the fact that God can do some amazing things for you, that comes adversity along with it. Every single time. It just goes without saying. And I was having a fairly, I mean, well, not fairly, but a hugely successful week. I had never seen this type of hatred before.

6:38I hadn't seen it. And it's a great trick that the devil does, you know, when when God is blessing you and giving you some great opportunities in your life as all of you have gone through. And it isn't an amazing how some negative thing crops up. And that's what you have to focus on. I found out that I don't have to, but you wanted to focus in on it. And your energy goes over to that to try to deal with it counteract. Wonder why I was happening. You got to make phone calls. What was this about blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And it throws you off the course you are on. And then I got to make a little week. I was so grateful. I was so amazed. I was really thinking God for opportunity. But it's brief moment. The enemy slides this. This little factor in that it causes you to and it requires your attention. You have to pay attention because you don't know.

7:39You're going, wow, man, let me see what this could really be. How, how much dirt is this really that they trying to do? And that attention, you lose your focus on really all the blessings and the good thing that God does for you. The enemy has an amazing trick that he does that. And it was, and it was in my head, I got to tell y'all all week long, man. And I was doing some amazing stuff. I was having such a blessed week, man, in terms of press and PR and where God was taking me. And then when I got back, I was talking with my wife. And then I was talking to a good friend of ours. And they shared something that really helped me out. And they said to me, new level, new devil. You know, it's something really simple. But new level, new devil. Every time you go to another level,

8:40every time you go a little bit higher, every time God has a blessing and store for you, every time he moves you in position, do you understand that the enemy's job is to make you not see the blessing, make you not be grateful for it. Lose your focus and focus on this that I just threw in your way. This stumbling block, this obstacle, this trickery. And man, I was, I got you, I just got to tell you, man, I mean, it was so feel with hatred that I had to, I really spent some time addressing it. And I got publicists on the phone. I said, what's happening here? Y'all not watching this? Y'all not, what was this attack? You knew that you didn't know these angles? And you know, Steve, chill. New level, new devil. If you get a promotion on your job, guess what? Somebody ain't happy that you got the promotion. So here come the hate. You don't even really know these people.

9:41You have no idea. Every time you make a decision to make your relationship with your spouse better, man, this is it. You know what I'm gonna start doing? I'm gonna do this, man. So me and my girl can go on and have this. So me and my man can go on and have this. Watch what happened. Every single time. Here comes the new level, the new devil, the trick. You don't need to do that. What you doing that for? She don't appreciate it. He ain't going to appreciate it. Look over here, man. Look at that right there. And he ain't got it. You know, he missed. He didn't call you and he said, it's going all types of stuff. It just happens all the time. And I was sitting with this friend, really good friend, very spiritual person. And they said, you know something Steve, you know, I was talking to Jesus and said, I was having this conversation with Christ. And I said, God, for real, you mean to tell me every time that something good happens to me? You mean every time I try to go to the next level,

10:43every time you put me on the next level, you mean to tell me that I got to go through this right here? Are you for real? And then my friend said, Jesus said to her, they did it to me. And we just fell out laughing. They did it to me. They did it to him. They did it to him. For him to go to the next level. And you know, I was just, I was just going over the whole story about the crucifixion and everything. That had to be amazing, man. Of all the hate he had endured, all the prosecuting he had endured. They thought ultimately, what we'll do is, we'll nail him on a cross and crucify him. And that'll be the end of him. And we'll put him in this tune and we'll put this big stone up there. And that'll be the end of him. But what they did not know was, all you was doing was setting the tone for the next level. Because eventually the stone got rolled away and he went and got placed with his father.

11:44When he was headed to anyway, he ultimately knew that his ultimate goal was to get to his father. So, when you thought you were doing what you were doing to him, and you put him in a tune and you put the big stone up in there, and the stone got rolled away, and he went eventually to where he was trying to get to. That story is in place for all of us to remember that when we are going through some things, could it be because we are going to a place? You know, it could be just a place in life. It could be just a different level in life. That's all it has to be. But there is going to be the adversarial challenges that come with it. And those are the moments we must expect, expect, and take them head on. And still not lose your focus or appreciation for what God has done for you.

12:45So, in light of all of that, I'm able to say the day that I thank my Heavenly Father. I really do. For all the blessings he has been stored upon me, and all of the haters, and all of the liars, and all of the backstabbers, and all those people. When you get through lying, when you get through stabbing, when you get through gossiping and doing what you do, I'm still going to the next level. I'm still going. You cannot stop what God has in store for you. No one can stop that. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Ladies and gentlemen, let me have your undivided attention. It's the Steve Harvey Morning Show. The voice you listening to does not belong to Steve. Who is it? I like. I do wish that we're would stop asking

13:48the proverbial question. Why do me and lie? That is the proverbial question. The answer to that question, ladies, is because we are talking to you. Say it one more time. The number one reason that me and lie is because we are talking to you. It's a UK tell us the truth. You're a reaction to the truth. It's no adverse. You just can't do it. You know something that's not a fact. Let's talk about that for a minute. Surely stop being call of real. My self-missive thermometer, because junior nephew Tommy is back. Let's go on a good start. Now, junior, I know you need to have stuff on your mind, but you probably go, you're going to need this information. Okay. Because he's married now. Yeah. Ladies always want to know why me and lie.

14:49And the answer to that question is because ladies, we are talking to you. What does that mean? Your reaction. No sense. You're the truth. Girl. It's amazing. Old crazy. To you. It's cool to us. But you because you can't handle the reaction. Yeah, you can't handle our reaction. No. You can't handle that. The truth. No, no, no. That is our reaction. The reaction is handling it. See right there. See right there. Right there. That's how we handle it. See right there. You don't like our reaction. You just want us to sit stone facing. Not even emotions, reactions. What we try to do is delay that reaction. See that's selfish. Yeah, baby, I cheated. We just want to say, Oh, okay, honey. That's great. Okay. You. Why would he come in there and say,

15:50baby, I cheated. What? But I'm just saying, if you told us that's why our reaction should be. No. No. We already know that. What is going to be? So why would we come in here to tell you that? And I'm going to tell you that. You don't get to cheat. You don't get to do that and determine how our reaction is going. But I do get to do it until you rely on going to tell you I do get to do that. We react how we react. Let's tell you what. What way you being. That's the simple question. Where you being? At the stove. At the stove. At the stove. Wait. Did you really go to the store? No. But why did you lie about going to the store? That's my question. Because if I was told you I was there, how? Well, what do you think we're going to be? How much? That's the only thing. That stupid. We already know you were over there anyway. Well, just tell the whole thing. You didn't know that. No, no, you did not know that. Stop. You don't ever know.

16:50Huh. That's what I think. We have, okay. We have to continue this. We're coming up at 32. That's what I think. I know stuff. Coming up at 32 minutes after the hour. We'll get with the nephews so he can run that prank back right after this. You're listening to the Steve Martin Show. Steve Martin Show. It is time now to start your morning off with the nephews as he runs that prank back. What you got for his nep today? We're going to put a little stupid out of this morning. Share it with a little bit of stupid on it. We're going to sprinkle it nice and smooth evenly. Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can't dog if you heard? Hello. I'm trying to speak to Sister Lauren, please. Began. Sister Lauren, this is Brother David from the church. I don't know if you know me. You might know me when you see me, but I don't know if you just know me. Because we don't really interact that much at the time.

17:51I wanted to give you a call. We got a bit of a problem going on. Okay. You have a minute to talk. Well, apparently so. All right. How long have you been doing the sign? You know, you and the ministry where you do the sign language for the church. And I noticed you up there at least two Sundays out of the mind. You've been doing it quite a while. Am I right? Yes. I've been doing it for over 10 years, but I'm really confused as to why they're calling about this. I'm really confused. I don't know who you are. You say that I see your face. I may know you, but what does it have to do with anything? How long have I been doing sign language? I know. Okay. I've been doing it for years. So how many help you with this? Do you want to know? Okay. I'm not trying to learn in a sign language. Do you do you know miss everybody called a Miss murder? Do you know Miss murder?

18:51I guess you do. Okay. So Miss Mertel. That's that's that's one of my aunties right there. Miss Mertel is. Okay. And she gave you my number to call me. I'm. What would you need for me? Did she give you that? No, that's what I'm getting at. So so you know, you know, my you know, my honest is deaf. You know, she's hearing. You know that, right? Okay. Yes. Uh-huh. Okay. So so here's a problem. Aim. Aim Mertel is telling us that you're not doing the sign language right doing the service. And like you missing some things in the script. You know, no, no, no. No, no. That's correct. I've been doing this for a very long time. And I know what I'm doing. So how do you. So she told you before me to tell me that I'm not doing the sign language directly. That's what I'm doing. I'm. I'm. Let me say let me say this to you. I don't want us to get off on the wrong foot. Let me just say this to you. Once my once my murder told us what was going on. You know, we didn't went to one of the deacons and asked him, you know, is that way we can,

19:53uh, have a meeting, you know, with with with sister Lauren. So we can try to get this taken care and talk about it. He said, well, why don't you just want you just calling y'all can just work it out. And and that's how I'm calling you now. I'm. I don't know if you're a worker or whatever I apologize, but I'm just trying to get to the bottom of now. Let me go and say this with my aim murder say that you ain't signing right then my any ain't lying. That mean your excuse me. That mean you ain't signing right. Really. So the past doesn't come to me, but he, but you figured you would just call me and tell me that your auntie says I'm doing incorrectly. That doesn't make sense to me. How does she tell you that? Did she sign it to you? She signed language to her daughter. My listen, you ain't got to worry about who she's signing to. What you need to worry about is getting your shit, getting your stuff together. All right. And learning how to do this the correct way so that my any can get, you know, my any can easy be getting the word like everybody else getting the word, but she not getting it.

20:54Because you, the words getting loud. Sting your hands. All I'm hearing is your voice is getting very loud and you need to match my tone young Matt. Okay. Let's start with that. Let me match you. Matt. Matt. Matt your tone young man. What is that? Match my tone because you're getting very loud and I can't hear the all of that. All right. Okay. Okay. I'm going to say this. I'm going to say this. You call my phone correct? You have a problem that you're just clusting with me, but you're getting more ends in anything else. How am I going to resolve this problem? I am trying to be as quick as you. The way you resolve this problem is care your ass back to sign school so you can learn what you need to so my any can get the word. My any can't get the gospel because you messing it up. God anointed me to do style language at that church and I've been doing it for a long time and I will continue to do so. Don't call my phone telling me that I'm not doing something right. But do God know that you not doing it right?

21:54Do God know that? Does God know that my aim, my little not getting the word because of you? My name, young man, Jesus, please give me the strength to continue on with this conversation. But you know what, my I'm going to be right back. Let me tell you something. Notice I have a call my mother freaking phone talking about I ain't doing something. Now if I see you in the street this can't I have a good side your **** and do I miss my stuff clear? I cannot believe you talking to me like this. Oh, now you want to become. Now you're calm. Now you match my tone. I can't believe you just got through talking to me like that. I've been done here. So you think it's cool for you to tell the Lord I'll be right back. Thank you Lord. I needed a moment. You human right? We've been on his phone as well. You've been on a skewer. I mean, I told you to match my tone. Match my tone. I am matching your tone.

She said it was a joke because a white guy was visiting from London. Am I supposed to let this slide or is twerking on any man disrespectful? Well, you say, oh, should you let it slide? What if you don't let it slide? What that mean? What I mean? I mean, what you're going to do? She didn't twerked already.

28:05She didn't admit it that she did it. And she did it because he was from London. That's a pass. So now you want to what? I mean, what you're not going to let it slide?

A war, one of her blouses for 15 minutes and a jump suit for about 10 minutes.

29:08She wants all five of the items dry cleaned, even if I only wore two items. Am I obligated to do it or is she just being petty? No. You borrowed her clothes. Yeah. You borrowed her. She ain't got the one to put on you, whoa. Just dry cleaning the clothes. Do you know what it would have cost you to buy that stuff? Just dry cleaning the woman's clothes. Why you being trifling? She was kind enough to give you five outfits. Your funky behind won't do over. Now here's a problem with the two. If you put the two in the bag with the other three and you had them on, you now affected the freshness of the other three. That's why all five of them got to go to the cleaner. What's wrong with you though? You borrowed clothes, you don't pay for, you don't want to clean them. That'd be your last time coming to my house. Why is your post over here anyway? If you ain't got the clothes for the photo shoot, what is you doing in the photo shoot for? Wow. What is the photo shoot? Filter and do some self-isolid and change your clothes with the filter.

They asked for separate checks and said it was because they had beer and I ordered two margaritas with expensive tequila. Shouldn't they have paid the bill regardless of my drinks? What? Didn't you say that y'all just friends? Yeah. And we had work. We from work? Yeah. Y'all, you ain't sleeping with nobody. You don't get all them drinks for that. They didn't have that work. All they want to do that is me and Tommy and Junior. We got to take these girls out of each time. We got to pay for everything.

31:10Yeah, so leave. All this is the extra double-ing and all this here. I want to get you a shrimp on my salad. We got people all that. Yeah. But everybody like us. So you know, that's what you get. I got these three male friends. They're not your friends. No, they're not. Man, cold green. Cold green. Cold green. That's all it is. That's a real cold work. Yeah. Well, she just said they're three of her friends. She didn't say that they worked together. Oh, they don't work together. Okay. They made real strong, you know. Yeah, they ain't your friends. They're male friends, you're Roger. Yeah. Okay. Okay, there. Yeah, she's, yeah, she's saying shouldn't they pay the bill regardless of her drink. So, they thought she had a free meal and she not getting it. Sure, the free drinks and she not getting it. They're just cheap. They're cheap. No, all that recital and all that old top shelf. No. Get some of that raggedness. This sip of water could be drinking. Get you some tea, those and sit there and hold bomb to it all.

35:16You know, men are really, really not nurturing is not really what we do. It's not. Now he looking at a week. You need a bath. You ain't walking. Now you want some mosoop. And sickness. And the game on you all in health. You know, the game is all what they got to do. You need to be washed and you need to. You know, in sickness and in health, he took that. I got to get you to that bathroom. We got a problem. We got a problem. That's such a big piece. Yeah. If you start for a while, get out that dope. I don't need to be in here for this. Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay. I took too long. What? What? I expected that. You were so stupid. You have got to wait. Yeah. You have got to wait. Yeah. You have got to wait. Yeah. You have got to wait till I get out here. Did I take too long getting you in here? Baby, as soon as I sit you down, you just start it.

36:17I think I got to get out this dope. Here's Lord Steve Ogan, Lord, she'll come to a private thing. Here's a question for you guys. Is your partner your best friend? Where you friends before you came romantic? Oh, yeah. You know, it seems despite the popularity of dating apps, most relationships start the old-fashioned way. That's right. Most of them do with people who are friends first. In fact, researchers have found that 66, 66% of people were platonic friends with their partner before starting a romantic relationship. So, Steve, I got to go to you. Do you believe there are benefits to being friends with someone before you date them? I mean, it is. It's not necessary. Right. But it is. But it's not necessary. And a lot of relationships start the other way first.

37:17They get physical before they good friend. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And uh. Right now, I'm married to my best friend because I ain't got no. You ain't got no word. I ain't got no real friends, no. I don't really have no dues I share everything with. I just don't. Uh-huh. I'm grown out of that space. I want to ask you this because it's always puzzled me. What about people who are friends? They're really, really good friends. We have a lot of strawberry letters about this. They're really good friends and then they try to be romantic. And it doesn't work out. And the friendship gets all weird after that. Well, look, look, look, look. I said 100 times. I'm not going to stop saying. If a man is attracted to you, it's hard for him to stay your friend. Mm-hmm. Right. You say that all the time. I just, I don't know how. Mm-hmm.

38:17And I don't know why we keep debating this thing. If a man is attracted to you, it's going to be really hard for him to stay your friend. It's really hard. So let's just notice if you know that you're attractive to this guy and y'all just friend. It's just until he see a crack in the door. Mm-hmm. Okay. A physical friend. And he'll be. A physical friend. What? A physical friend. Like a friend with benefits. What are you talking about? We're going to be physical, but we're going to be friends. You understand? That's not physical friends. That's the kind of relationship. That's a friends with benefits. That's a sexual relationship. Yeah. Call it what you want to call it. It's a sexual relationship and eventually feelings on one one of the parts is going to get involved. Usually the woman. Usually the woman. Exactly. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. You're in love now. Oh man. And about a sign up for love.

39:18This will be just a nice physical friend. Says the host are ready to love. And two different people. You're going to go join it. There's a radio Tommy and TV Tommy. There's only one. When he's all on it. Yeah. I got you. I got you. Right. You wait all the way crazy Tommy. You get far from it. So Steve, it is still your contention that you're going to be. Steve, it is still your contention that men and women. It's hard for them to be friends without being physical. That is that what you're saying? If the man is attracted to you. Mm hmm. I'm to I've never seen a wife. How? What? Just show me. That's that. So then the question is what we just brought up. Surely with the with the segment to be friends. Can you first? Yeah. And then date. And you're saying that if you are friends and that man is attracted to the woman. Steve, you said we're trying to say if you're going to be friends first and then you're going to date.

40:23How does that work if you say men and women can't be friends? If a man is attracted to you. Eventually when there's a crack in the door, he's going to know if he can put his foot in the door. Got it. And be more than friends. Right. Yes. Be more than friends. And these relationships that turn start out that way. Can turn out in blossom into wonderful and beautiful relationships. It can happen. And that's a great way for it to start because you started as friends. It's a great thing to happen. Steve, let's try to clear this up once and for all if we can because there's so much debate about this. And then we can see that there's so much of a difference between men and women and be friends. And once they cross that physical line, can they still be friends? Because sometimes that gets weird. So let's try to clear this up because it is a debate ongoing debate between men and women all the time. You say what? Man. Did you say that?

41:23I was going to call it. You're being exacerbated. You're being exacerbated. You're being exacerbated. You're being exacerbated. You're being exacerbated. You're being exacerbated. You're being exacerbated. Men and women can be friends only if the man does not find the woman attractive or is not attracted to her for whatever the reason. If a man finds you attractive and is attracted to you and is your friend, I want you to understand that the moment there is a crack in the door, a chink in the armor. And he see away he can fit in and be more than your friend. More. I'll do that. Absolutely he will. Unequivocally. Now, can you start a friendship that way and it blossomed into a relationship? Yes. And you know why the blossomed into a relationship? Because he's been attracted to you the whole time. From the beginning. From the beginning. Period. Now here's the sad part that you don't want to hear. Okay. Hurry. If the man is not attracted to you or finds you unattractive, you can be his friend.

42:26Okay. Alright. We'll be debating this for centuries to come. Steve Harvey morning show man, anybody playing with y'all? I want to see Morgan theme while I didn't tell a joke.

So according to an online poll, here's how to tell if a boyfriend or girlfriend is serious about you. So Steve, this is the same thing you stated in your book. Act like a lady, think like a man. So let's go over a few ways to tell if you are the one. Alright, number one.

49:36He refers to your relationship as we, when talking about future plans. You agree? Absolutely. Why would he mention you in the future if you're not going to be there? Wow, let's go. Okay, it makes sense. You see all the movies, what's the movies in the future? Richie Prye used to talk about. And you saw the movies about the future and why people being it. That's because white people weren't playing on us being here. Oh gosh. They weren't saying we. We started because we still sticking around. We were shocking to. Alright, here's another one, Steve. His social media includes pictures of the two of you. Absolutely. I just had a conversation with a young guy because I know how important social media is to them. And when they claim each other as exclusive, they will post each other.

50:37If you're not, you're not getting posted. I mean, just look at anybody. Look at all of them. And so I know this kid that's dating this girl. He told me he's in love with her. And he told me she's in love with him. But he ain't on none of her Instagram. And she ain't on none of his. I said, son. I don't know what's happening, but don't look that real. Now, he mad at me. Why could you brought it to us attention? Yeah. Alright, here's another one. Labels become a part of your relationship when you're a significant other. Stops introducing you as just a friend publicly. Chances are you're the one and only. Like this is my, I mean, that's important. Yeah, my name is. Because how many women are in relationships and don't know what it is. They don't have a description of it. Right. Yeah. What is this? You're in many women in relationships that's gone. What is this? Yeah. They don't even know what it is.

51:38Because do is a very smart now. And if you go along with us without a label or a title, cool. Right. But you have to ask yourself why don't I have a label or a title? Ask yourself that. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And the number one reason is it's called you ain't that. Mm-hmm. Lord Jesus, you better tell it. You preach. You better minister up. You better be that true. Ain't nobody fit in the car you what you ain't. Listen. You only get to be Mr. President if you get the votes. You only get to be the boss if you get the promotion. You only get to be the owner of the company if you put up all the money. Hello. What? Church, amen. Amen. Amen again. Go ahead. Let's see. This is a big one in your book. I remember he brags about you and introduces you to his friends.

52:39Then you know. Simple. Yeah. Man, this is the one. Man, this is my girl. Man, the other day, man, we had such a good time. Man, my girl, man. She'd be lighting it up, man. We be going through it a little bit, man. But this girl, she's smart. It's just simple. It's simple. It's simple. We watch it. We watch it. That's how we mark our turn to a turn to it by bragging about you. So you heard me say this. She meant you heard that. So what you over here for, with your head cocked to the side, sipping out your drink side weight, partner. And the last one, Steve, you have drawers at each other's house. Yeah. Draws. Draw. No. You have a drawer like in a drawer. Oh, you got drawers in the drawer. I'm going to put them in the drawer. That's true, too. You got to put them in the drawer. You'll just lay them in the floor. My drawers is over here because I'm been fined to do something why I need new drawer. Oh, goodness. Okay, put these back on.

I said, pull your car over in an hour. Throw it in the car. Put it up loud and watch me do you. Okay. This right here is my comb and brush. My comb and brush. It sounds very simple. Yeah, it sounds very simple. My comb and brush cat dog it you what? Hello. Hello, I'm trying to reach up. Let's the ****. Yeah, this ****. Hey, listen, my name is John. Did you ever awkward it passed away? Name ****. Yeah, ****. All right. Here you're awkward, right? Yeah, that's my uncle. We we we read him about three and a half months ago. Right. What reason why I was calling was, I'm the person that actually cut your

55:43car half when he passed away. Okay. So reason why I was calling is, uh, this is the way it is. When I cut his half and I know you don't know the history about me, but my, my daddy and my granddad were with, with Barb us. We are Barb us. Okay. Get down to the bottom because you turn my mom. I'm trying to see what's going on for it. Okay. And I'm sorry to call you like this, but what I'm telling you is that my granddad and they passed down a brush and a comb to me. Okay. Dad is like a sentimental value. Okay. But for the for the last two, three months, I ain't been able to find the comb and the brush that I use what I had cut here now. Okay. So, okay, go ahead. And what I was trying to call and tell you was that I came finally and I'm almost certain what I'm trying to do. Okay. I'm going to keep looking. I'm going to keep looking. So, so what come out to you? I think I'm going to be fine. Call him brother.

56:43That's what I'm saying. When I did miss half and it ended up at the field of home, that should last time I remember having it. Well, it was three months so, man. Right. Right. It was about three months ago. What I'm trying to say is I left the comb and brush and you know, once it's been on home and did his half. Okay. And I talked to the field of home and they told me that, you know, if I'm trying to find the comb and brush, I've got to get permission. Man, what kill is the comb and brush? What's the color of the comb and brush? They're black. They both are black. They're combing black and all black. You got all kind of comb that black and it's going to be black. No, no, no. See what I'm saying is the comb and brush is black and I know I lost it. But I'm almost certain about where it is. Okay. So, if you say about where it is, why are you calling it? That's the reason why I'm calling it because I'm almost certain I left it with him. You never know about that. So, so I called a funeral home. They told me I need to call you in order to get permission to get it. Oh, okay. You called a funeral home to get permission from me that you can go get the comb and brush from there.

57:47The funeral? So you can go around there. I think they got it. No, no, no. See, the comb and brush ain't with the funeral. The comb and brush is in there with your uncle. The what? The comb and brush is in the care. What the, you call it about? I mean, I don't say it. You got to say that again. What you said? What I'm trying to say to you is that the comb and brush is in, I'm trying to say you just say what you're saying. I'm trying to say it, man. The comb and brush is in the care. It's with your uncle. You just say it's in there. It's in there. It's in there. See, see what I'm trying to say is that the comb and brush is sentimental value to me. But it couldn't have been too valuable if you lost it. What now? What it was? I value, you know, my work. So I just really got caught up in my work. You think it was really worth it? If you talk about you, I'll laugh with my uncle. That day, it three months ago, man. What kind of a **** did you talk about on work? I'm trying to do what you would see if you don't mind approving for them to bring the body up so I can get the comb and brush.

58:51You're a lot of **** bad. We're seeing the body up for a comb. See, but I'm trying to explain you this sentimental value. I'm trying to get you out of brain of the body so I can get my comb and brush out of it. Because like I said, my dad and my granddaughter was born. You know, this one, the bag is sentimental. You talking about my dead uncle, man. And you talking about bringing him up out of the ground for **** comb, man. I just got these **** and start crying around you. And I understand what y'all going through as a family and stuff. See, now I'm trying to get my comb and brush. How you trying to go about doing this? I don't throw it off on, boy. Because anybody digging up the **** body to bring back no, no brush, man. Now you've got me **** off now, man. Because you're calling me talking stupid, man. You talking about putting up my husband, man. That's got to be with you. Man, I ain't trying to start no, man. You talking about **** comb and brush, man. I need **** on my right. Well, I understand all that, but this is sentimental value, man. This **** sentimental value, man. This is something that my problem is. I'm going to leave you a little bit of middle of me, okay? Got in my favorite locker, man.

We could be reading your letter live on the air just like we're gonna read this one right here right now. And you never know it could be yours. Buckle up, hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is the strawberry letter. I'm still in Angola. I'm still in Angola. I don't need to be. We'll get out now. Come on, baby letter. Here we go. I'm just saying, do you see even Shirley? I have been married for 22 years to a fool who thinks I'm crazy.

1:05:01He works two jobs and takes great care of me, but I think he resents me because I never had children for him. At first we agreed that we didn't want kids, but now we're almost 50 and he said he wants a son. Because of that, he has become very involved with the neighborhood friend's son. I thought he was being a good neighbor, but now I think he is using the boy to get to his mama. We've known this woman for years and when she lost her husband three years ago, our small community was there for her and her kids. She has an eight year old son and a five year old daughter. My husband and I kept the kids a few times in the past. And recently, my husband has tutored the boy in math and even bought an Easter suit for him last year or for him this year. A week ago, my husband asked me if it was okay for him to paint this lady's daughter's bedroom. I didn't have a house in my mind, but I thought it was random because my husband is not a painter. That day, he was at her house for hours and I didn't call to bother him. That evening, the lady called me and said that my husband was really sick and needed to go to the ER.

1:06:05I rushed to her house and my husband was laid out on the floor in his boxers, undershirt, and footies. He was slurring and slavering and I knew right off that he wasn't sick. He was drunk. She wanted him gone before her kids got home and she could move him. She said he took his clothes off because he couldn't breathe. A neighbor had to help him get him into the car. My husband has been sleeping on our couch since then and they swear that nothing sexual happened. Why are they lying? Should I send him back over to her house? If you listen to this show, you would know there are lies that Steve respects and approves of. And then there are just some really stupid lies. Saying he was in his boxers and his undershirt and his footies because he couldn't breathe was just a stupid lie. It was just dumb. The only reason for him to be almost all the way dressed over some other woman's house after he had been there all day.

1:07:07Is if he and the neighbor lady were doing it or about to do something before you got there. I mean, they're playing house over there. He wasn't painting the daughter's room. You never even mentioned that again. I guess it was a shock of seeing him drunk laid out on the floor and in his underwear that made you forget all about that. And yes, there is a difference between being drunk and sick and you know your husband. I'm shocked that she called you. But I do believe you're right. She desperately needed him out of the house before the kids got home. And she definitely needed him. Needed some help getting him out of there. So a neighbor helped. Well, I got to ask you now that he's home. What are you going to do? You let him stay over her house all day, supposedly painting her daughter's room and not even checking on him all day. You were hours. You just can't leave your man over some other woman's house and not contact him. You should have gone over there to see what was going on.

1:08:07Now you're asking if you should send him back. One night unless you want the same thing to happen all over again. And until you figure out whether you're staying in this marriage, what you're going to do. He needs to stay on that couch and stay his butt at home. Period. Steve. I picked him up and there's still line. This is a really, really weird letter. It is. Kind of crazy. Really. This couple been married 22 years. Now she say to a fool who thinks I'm crazy. Well, I did this marriage last 22 years to a man who is a fool. And to a man who thinks you crazy. He got two jobs. Take great care of me. But I think he resists me because I never had children for him. At first we agreed we didn't want kids, but now we're almost 50. And he wants to son.

1:09:08You all agree, but he never stopped wanting kids. Okay. All right. Because of that, he has become very involved with the neighborhood friend son. I thought he was being a good neighbor, but now I think he's using the boy to get to his mama. Well, I think it's both. I think he's also using the mama to get to the boys. Now, but we've known this woman for years. And when she lost her husband three years ago, our small community was there for her and her kids. Now, when you're sadling lost her husband three years ago. Does that mean death is that how you all know? Yes, he does. Okay. Or she could have lost him to another woman. I meant death. Okay, well, he died. And the community and everybody was there for she got eight years old son five year old daughter.

1:10:08My husband and I kept kids a few times in the past. And your husband, two to the boy in life, and he's even bought an Easter suit for him this year. I think that's pretty good. I like it. A week ago, my husband asked if he was okay for him to paint this lady's daughter's bedroom. Now, this is where it gets interesting because even to even know that the daughter's bedroom need paint. A pretty extensive conversation has been made. Because you can tutor the boy and man, you can buy a Easter suit. What that got to do with the girl bedroom need. Hang on, Steve. Hang on. We'll come back with part two of your response at 23 minutes after the hour of today's strawberry letter subject. I picked him up and they're still lying. We'll get back into it right after this.

Let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject is, I picked him up. And they're still lying. Well, this lady man been married for over 22 years. She thinks the man is a fool. And for thinking she's crazy. They always wanted a son. She thinks there's some resentment because he couldn't have children for him. He's falling and taken to this neighbor's son.

1:14:15The woman lost her husband three years ago. She's got eight year old boy, five year old daughter. And he's kind of taken to the boy. Two to the man, math and all this here and bought him a Easter suit. And she says in the letter that I think he's using the boy to get to his mom. When I think it's him using the mom to get to the boy. And it may be a package deal here that they're working on. You've kept kids a few times. You know, all this here. We could go. Your husband said, is it okay for him to paint this lady's daughter's band rule? Now, that's a conversation, y'all. I've had a conversation with a lot of women in my life. And paint Nate Babies' band rule may ever come up. Okay. Ever. That part. I'm telling you that was an extensive conversation coming up. Some type of trade off. Some type of deal.

1:15:16Something of value. I need my daughter's bedroom painting. That's the only way that can come up. And then the lady said he asked if it was okay. I didn't mind. But I thought it was random because my husband is not a painter. Yeah, but you ain't heard of. You know, we a whole lot of things when we got to be. Now, if you get over to your house, requires it, I become a painter. That's what it is. I'm going down here to Lowe's. I'm going to work through some stuff. I'm going to come back with the little plastic. I'm going to come back with the can of paint, the brush, the roller pen, the pen. I'm going to come back with a stir stick. Right. I'm going to come back with some tape. That blue tape so I can match off the head. Oh, I'm going to lie. I'm going to go on YouTube and I'm going to paint this room. Yes. Well, the day came, he was at our house for hours.

1:16:18And I didn't call the bother him. And that evening the lady called me and said that my husband was really sick and needed to go to the E.R. That this was all we had to work through this now. I rushed to her house. My husband was laid out on the floor in his boxes, undershirt and footies. He was slurring his slobbering and I knew right off he wasn't sick because she been with him 22 years. He was drunk. She wanted him to get, she wanted me. She wanted him going before her kids got home and she couldn't move. She said she took his clothes off because he couldn't breathe. Do you know how hard it is to get a man's clothes on? And what they got to do with breathing? Yeah. He was breathing when he had him on when he walked his, it's over there. He was breathing when he was painting that house.

1:17:18Now all of a sudden why he got to be half naked to breathe? Don't get it. A neighbor had to help us get him in the car. My husband has been sleeping on that couch since then. They sweared nothing sexual happened. Why they lying? Should I send him back over the house? Well, I don't know what you're doing. I don't have an answer. But I'ma do tell you something that I do know that drinking and painting don't mix. This much I do know. There is no reason to try to drink and stay in them lying. There is no reason to try to drink and thank you ain't gonna get that paint on that tree. Okay. There is no way you can line that paper and you're just drinking. There is no desire to paint after you've been drinking.

1:18:18Pain is physical labor, drinking to the point where he drank when his speech is low. He didn't have too much. Thought he was painting. Well, he was over there. There was no paint on him. Exactly. The door to his bedroom still ain't need no paint. The whole painting the door to bedroom was locked. So she got to get him out of here because they've been drinking. He drank too much and now he didn't fell out. She got to get him out of here for me and to take his clothes off. You know how it is for a moment to pick a man and take his clothes off. No, how did he? He took them clothes off his stuff. He was ready. But he didn't understand rules of drinking. When you are drinking and you start to feel something, that is the time to stop drinking and start consuming water.

1:19:19If you continue to drink after you first feel something, the rest of that liquor ain't hit the blues. That's the man who does not drink. And here's why I don't drink because I'm one of my brother, my entire life. And I'm an expert at it and I know who this comment is. I see the slide. So good luck. It's time for you to leave your comments on today's strawberry letter on Instagram and Steve Harvey FM. Please check out the strawberry letter podcast on demand as well. This is Steve Rob and Martin Showman. Laura says, I've been sleeping with our yard man for a while and he doesn't like wearing protection. We got into an argument about it and now he's not answering my husband's texts to come do our yard. How can he be so petty when he knows I'm married? What is he going here? Y'all got to quit writing us with all this craziness acting like it's normal.

1:20:20You're not qualified Steve. What y'all want me to do? I can't apply no rules to this stuff because y'all keep coming up with all this abnormal mess like his regular. It is time now to check Steve's voicemail. You can call him at 87729. Steve and leave a message for him. You just might hear your call in the air. Steve, you ready? This one, this was one of us to see a little question Steve. This is from Laverne and Greenville. Remember Laverne? Laverne was the one that wrote in and said she worked at the post office. She noticed that her neighbor gets a lot of money orders every month and he mails them out of town. Remember her to the same address and she wanted to know could he be cheating on his wife and sending the money to another woman? Well, this lady left a message about your response. Take a look. Good morning Steve. This is Steve. Laverne on the CLO call this morning could be onto something.

1:21:23From the post office, there's a lot of fraud with money orders. People send people money then they ask them to send them back money orders. So she might be onto something and not necessarily what you're thinking. But that's a good observation from somebody working in the post office. She might need to feel a little more attention and alert the authority. Have a great day. I love this show and everybody y'all have fun. Take the spot. Yeah, well Ms. Verne, listen. Let's see. We really don't know what to hear you talking about. What's your name? I think Steve. I think Steve. Steve. Oh, same thing here. Thea Verne. Miss Thea. Love Verne. I don't know what to hear you talking about. I don't know why you thought you should call thea about this. They ain't your business. Miss Thea is what the whole answer was. That ain't your business. I told that to Laverne. So what did you call thea tell my thea the post office might be onto something. People buy money orders all the time sending them their ass for money back.

1:22:24So what? They ain't got nothing to do with you. And Laverne in that letter was talking about he must be sending money to some woman. She said I let his wife know. Lady, no. See Miss Thea that's how stuff gets started. Stay out of this. Why is you calling him with that? See you roll for that Miss Thea. Now I love you loving the show and I love you too. And Jamaica, what all that you know appreciate that. You know, you're crazy. You're crazy. Oh, all that all that like all that. You're loaded track team. You saying both baby forever. Oh. What? Tell me that. Tell me that. What's your name? Shelly and Pryce. That's my girl with the hat. That's my favorite girl running track. Chakari Richardson is it right now. Don't forget this girl calling this girl. That girl runs so pretty man. He's a beast. I ain't seeing nobody run that pretty. She run pretty man. How that girl could fly, man. Okay.

1:23:24You got it all out. All your Jamaican love. Yeah, I'm just a Thea. You know, calling it. Trying to correct it. Yeah, just take the answer. Yeah. Yeah. Jamaica. Go. Thank you. Yeah, she called Richardson. I'll tell him how she called, but I will just tell him on this theater later. From Jamaica calling about the lady. She might be on to something. Let me stop. This is Steve Harvey morning show, man. Everybody playing with y'all. This show I have said a thousand times is for enlightenment. Entertainment. Entertainment. Entertainment. And inspiration. And entertainment is a big part of this show. A lot of laws, eight misses, because you don't get to joke. I'm not apologizing for none. And I ain't prepared no, I'm sorry, statement. I tell you, joke and fun living. And if you didn't like to joke, tune in tomorrow. I have others. This email is for Steve Harvey. You're coming up right up to me.

1:24:29This email is from Duana in Evanston who writes, I was on the phone with my girlfriend over the weekend and I didn't know my husband was ear hustling in the kitchen. I told her that a single black man moved in next door and he was moving in with his shirt off and his muscles were turning me on. I told her that he is in his mid 30s and I said if he was a little bit older, he could get it. My husband yelled from the kitchen, he don't want that. How could he be so mean? I won't speak to him until he apologizes, but he said I was wrong. I was only joking. Should I apologize first? Well, yeah, you was wrong. You said something about another man in his man's house and he heard it. Ear hustling, you was talking loud. He heard all that. Me and can't even hear that good. You was talking loud. You didn't know he was in there and you was talking loud. And then he hollered back in there. He don't want that. He was just joking.

1:25:32I mean, I went on joke. He said it was a joke. If he was a little bit older, he could get this. He don't want that. Now she mad. Now you mad at him. He don't want that. You know what's happening? You know why he said it too. He said she even did joking. Yeah, but he said I'm going to shoot that. But she said he don't want that. So should she apologize? Is that what she wants in apology? OK. So she should start off first. He said she was only joking, but she mad at him. Bad joke. The prize joke. The prize. The prize. She joking about the prize. Given the prize away. Well, that's something. She said she was playing. OK. I got all that. I believe her. Reversed it. The statement he made was a little bit too true to him.

1:26:33He all woke up. Me. It was me. Well, the seat right there, though, you know. She crushed the ego. It was me and what she said. Yeah, to him. To him. Yeah. I got it. Not cool at all. Yeah. All right. So she should start off with the apologies what you're saying as a man if you would hurt that. She wants it apart. OK. All right. All right. Well, we have time for another one. This one's from Selena in East Orange. Selena says my husband and I were at dinner and a group of females were at the bar having drinks until their table was ready. My husband told our waiter to put their drinks on our tab. The women thanked him as they walked by us to their table. That was disrespectful, but he doesn't agree. Was he being a gentleman or being disrespectful? What did you do that for? Man, I don't know. That's crazy. What'd you do that for? Yeah. That don't make no sense. Like the user, not the drink out of hand. That was a shit of the. Got pay for.

1:27:34Don't do that. It's funny. What business is that aligned these four single women at the bar? He put their drinks on their tab. They thanked him as he went by. I don't know why he would do that with his wife sitting right there. I think that's fun. Well, he did. That's fun. Mm-hmm. And what she meant because they just thanked him and they didn't thank her as they walked by. They don't mind. Who they thanked? She meant, because why did you buy these half of this full drink? And what did you put in the only tab for? What is the purpose of being a gentleman? Why didn't she stop it when he did it? Why didn't she just say? That has nothing to do with being a gentleman. That buying full drinks for your wife? No. What she could have said something when he said, I'm going to put that on my tab. That's what I'm saying. Why didn't she say, don't put that on the tab. Why are you? Well, let me show you how I went. The way the came over to the table. Hey, my man. See the four ladies over there just waiting on the table. Put their drinks on my tab. And then she walked away.

1:28:34She went, hold up. What you buying them drinks for? Yeah. Who's that? Just being polite. Captain Samo. Just being polite. Yeah. So then when they walked by, thank you so much for the drinks. Oh, they sat shade by too. Oh, they was proud ponies when they came. Drinking with the lower umbrella show on this stuff. Thank you. All right. And they were wrong, too, because they threw it back in heart-friess. Yeah. All right. They didn't even have to save that. Coming up in 20 minutes after the hour, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. The question is, would you date someone 10 years younger? More women are now saying absolutely. Research of women in their 50s and 60s reveal that women would consider dating someone at least 10 years younger, because many of them are financially independent and not focused on finding a partner for security.

1:29:36Instead, they're looking for chemistry. They're looking for fun, shared interests, and someone who matches their energy level. Some female celebrities that have done it are Gabrielle Union and DeWade. She's nine years older. Is that working? Yeah. Chris Jenner, Corey Gamble. They have a 25-year-age gap. That's a big difference. Yeah, that's a big difference, but they're working. Yeah, and they've been, yeah, she looks good, and it's been working. And then we know, share, as always, dated guys much younger than her. Way younger. Yeah. Way younger. Yeah. I was in my house. Uh-huh. Really? And I was older than both of mine. Oh, no. I'm six years older than 10. Six than 10. Yeah, Juniama Kouger. I didn't know how this place is. Yeah. 10 years, ain't too bad. 10 years, ain't too bad. That's kind of my limit. Yeah, he was in a service thought that felt like my husband was room mature. Mature, of course, age. Yeah.

1:30:36Yeah. Military grow you up. And then the radio keeps you with that child, like mentality. Do you know what I love? I love this. We play a lot. We have a lot of fun. So it works. It works. I still like Juniama. I ain't going to love him. You know what? That's your favorite. I'm going to have an X for play around if would you rather right after this.

1:36:44Closing remarks from the one and only Steve Harvey and our last break of the day, right after this. It's Steve Harvey. Martin show, man. Maybe you ain't down there doing your job as a Deakin with a collection plate. Woo. Everyone, do what you tell me, I've been taking out the D these days. Oh, baby. As the Deakin, you've been skimming off the top. Maybe that's why the jackpot joint ain't got no jackpot. You are now suspended again. You know why I'm got the new necklace. This is Steve Harvey Maud of show man. You don't do it. You're not good. You're just going to do. The angriest comedian ever. I don't need no help. Let it be for me. You want to ask sound effect? You're going to do it. Tommy.

1:37:45Tommy, do you want any sound effects with your joke? I'm fairly. If there are animals, I'm doing sound effects. How do you want the wet? You are doing well. I only. I only. You go. From now on, you work with June. That's it. I'm doing sound effects. I'm doing sound effects. I'm a big bad. I am. You. You are the Steve Wombu. You're coming up right up. Here we go. Last break of the day with the man of the hour. The last four hours to be exact. The one and only Steve Harvey step on up to the mic for your clothes. You know what? I just want to talk to you all about something about other people as well as yourself. I want you to realize something that you got to just hang in there, folks. You just got to hang in there because where you are is so very temporary.

1:38:47It matters not where you are. It only matters where you head. You're going somewhere. Remember that everything you go through is God preparing you for what you ask for. But you're in the process. You are in the midst of being processed. All of us are. If you are trying to get to the next level, you have to be processed into that next level. You can't just go to the next level. You can't go to the 10th grade without finishing the ninth grade. You can't go to college without being in high school diploma. You can't. You just, you got to go through the process. You know, so what I'm getting at is this. Don't get down on yourself because you're going through a period in your life. And this period is kind of challenging for you. Like it is right now. There are a lot of people right now going through some challenging moments in their life.

1:39:47And it's getting to be a little bit daunting at times. And you're starting to feel a little bit overwhelmed by it all. Because you're sitting there and you're thinking, man, I didn't have enough of this Lord where you act. I don't got to learn this lesson no more. If you could just come on, I got it. Fix me. Rescue me. Deliver me. Give me the blessing that I've been praying for. You keep asking. And then you start to get a little defeated because it ain't happening in your time. That happens to you. Well, it happens to other people too. And you got to be careful how you treat other people. Because they may not always be in that position for long. Do you know how many people I know who just did me wrong when I was on the way coming up? You have any idea the number of people who were discouraging to me on my way up. They had no idea. You know I've any people bad mouthed me. Bad mouthed you on your way up.

1:40:48They don't have any idea who you really are. Do you know how many people throw a dirt on you thinking they're bringing you harm? They don't even realize what they do it. They don't know. Because you know what they do it. They judge you. They judge you based on a season. They judge you based on a period that you're in now. You got to be careful when you judge in people because of a period they're going through. Because that period is just a season. This down moment that you have it is just a season. And just like the seasons change, this too shall change. Just like seasons pass, this too shall pass. Somebody sent me something one day. That said, never judge somebody based on a season. And I started thinking about it and they went on. So I kept reading what they said.

1:41:49And they were just talking about it, man. And it was so true. They said one season, David was a shepherd. But the next season, he was a king. But you know how they played David on the way up? They wouldn't volunteer David for nothing. They wouldn't suggest David for nothing. He was just a little shepherd boy. David can't be the one to go down there and get that John Weenie going to bring David up. David went from a shepherd to a king. One season, Ruth was working in the field. The next season, she was owning the same field. It's just what a guy sitting. He's just biblical stories that's out there that really, if you're a person of faith, it matters to you. If you're not a person of faith, this is not for you. But it's okay. I didn't know you was missing. One season, Mordekiah was sitting outside the king's palace.

1:42:52The next season, he was inside the palace. We serve a God that turns things around. And he is the God of unmerited favor. We are all privy to his unmerited favor.
