• 2:17
  Speaker 1: goodness of God is overwhelming if you think about it,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, really really think about it, even when your
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: circumstance doesn't look so bright, even when you're going through
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: something that's causing you discomfort, pain, Even in that God's
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: goodness is actually overwhelming because don't forget why you're going
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: through this moment. First of all, this too shall pass.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: But also secondly, remember man, ain't everything else that you've
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: gone through that seems so insurmountable at the time, didn't
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: you get past that too? I mean, it's amazing. If
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: you really think about it, you don't get stuck on
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: any one issue your whole life. The only people that
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: get stuck on an issue they whole life is people
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: who won't let it go. That's really all it is.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: That are people who exist, and you may be one
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of them. Oh please, No, I've been guilty of it
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: myself before. But I learned something that are things in
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: my past that I just would not let go of.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: It was done, it was over with, I was past it,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: but I would not let go of it. It was over.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: The dude that did it to me didn't exist no more.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: The problem that it created didn't exist no more. The
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: only problem that kept hanging on was I would not
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: let it go. And man, you can't go forward if
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: you're gonna keep looking in the past. It's an impossible thing.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: It's like driving a car. If you keep looking only
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: in the rearview mirror while you're driving, you're going to
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: crash pretty soon. And a lot of people just keep
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: crashing over and over and over and over because you
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: won't drive your car you keep looking in the rearview
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: mirror at the past. Oh woe is me? Oh you
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: know they did me like that. You know I ain't
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: been the same since he cheated on me. Oh man,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: ever since she stole my money, I ain't been the
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: same man. She played me and every since that out
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: and treated women differently. You may have some deeper stuff
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: going on, like but eventually, guess what, do you understand
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: that when you have relationship God with God, you can
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: take that to him too and drop it off and
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: leave it there. Do you know that He can fix
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: and heal that. Maybe it's something serious like that that
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: you need fixing or healing from, a relationship with God
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: can fix and heal that. But man, I'm on y'all
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: whatever it is, and I'm not trying to downplay it
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: or make it act like it wasn't traumatic in your life, because,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: oh God, you don't want to you know, you don't
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: want nobody do that to you because you want to
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: be the you know, the post to child for misery.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: So please don't let me take that from you. If
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: that's your position, that's your Hall of Fame card. You
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: hanging on too, I'm the post to child for misery.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Oh no one is more woe than me. Then please
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: don't let Steve try to take that from you. You
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: go ahead and hang on to that, But let me
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: tell you something though. If that's what you're gonna hang
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: on to, that's what you're gonna always be the post
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: to child for misery. At one point in time, you're
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: gonna have to get on the move past it. And
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: you can sometimes. Man, it's merely a simple thing of
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: taking it to God and leaving it there. You know,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: some people don't have money for therapy. Some people don't
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: even know who to call for therapy. God is the
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: best psychologist in the world. He and fix it for you.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: There is nothing too hard for God. You know, when
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: something seems impossible, y'all, God does the impossible all the
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: time every day. You don't know how I know. I
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: just look at a couple of basic things. Do you
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: know that that sun comes up every day in the morning.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: It comes up in the east and it sets in
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: the west. You can't do nothing about that. All you
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: can wish because you plant your flowers on a certain
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: side of your house. You can wish y'all all you want.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Then maybe one day He would bring it up out
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: the northwest. So those flowers with blue namp now it's
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: gonna come up out the east. And once the sun
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: hits the horizon, when you look in the water. Like
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: if you ever out in la and you see the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: sun going down. Once the sun once you can visually
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: see the sun touching the horizon, you have three minutes.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: You have exactly three minutes. You can sit there with
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: your watch. You can time you're three minutes and it's gone.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Three minutes. It's gone. I read that somewhere and then
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: I went and tried it. It's gone every day if
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: if it's clear enough, not cloudy. Once the sun touches
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: the horizon on water, you got three minutes. When the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: wind blows, you can't do nothing about it. He can
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: bring it from the northeast. He can bring him from
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the west, he can bring from the south. He can
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: bring it hard, he can bring it cool, he can
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: bring it hot. It's certain things that God, God does
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: the impossible all the time. How those stars sitting up there,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: How how can you find these constellations? The big dipp
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: of the little dip of Ryan the Hunter. Oh that's
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: God's got nothing you can do about it. You can't
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: reach them stars, you can't shoot at them, you can't
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: move them out the way, or Ryan the Hunter's belt
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: is gonna beat them. Three stars at the angle you can,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: you can. You can call it what you want to call.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: It's still that's what it is. See, He does the
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: impossible all the time. He created heaven and Earth. You're
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: saying that God can't get you through your pass. Somebody
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: did this to me. It's the worst thing I had,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the worst childhood of anybody. God can't get you pass that.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: He can move Heaven, mountains, Earth, he can form the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Grand Canyon, he can make the water come over Niagara
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Falls twenty four seven. He can't fix your little bitty
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: pass yours. It's amazing how people make their problems bigger
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: than God. Somebody told me one time, stop telling God
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: how big your problems are, and start telling your problems
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: how big God is, and go on with your life.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Quit driving your car looking in the rear view mirror.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Ain't nothing back there but your pass. And if it
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: was hurtful or painful, or something you just felt like
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: you can't get over, take your problems to God and
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: leave them there. You hear the old spiritual all you've
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: heard it, take your burdens to the Lord, leave them
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: yet all time. But you think that applies to everyone.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: But you come on, man, and a lot of people
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: out there going through much worse than you have and
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: have overcome it all. Why won't you take the step
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: to overcome your pass so you can get on with
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: driving your car. See what God trying to take you.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: But it's the trick of the enemy. The enemy tricks
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: you from seeing your future by having you constantly looking
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: in your pass. Man, it's a trick of the devil.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: If the devil just lets you quit, if he would
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: just let you get to driving your car, look out
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: into your future. Your future shows hopefulness. You have hope
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: when you see the future. But he can keep you
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: in misery if he keep you looking at your miserable pass.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: God looking for you, Man, God would love to hear
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: from you. Let's spend some time talking to God today. Hey, God,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: was happening. It's me. I know I ain't talked to
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: you in a while, but feel bad about that. But
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I need you. He know that. Everybody should say that
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: prayer all the time. It's cool, all right, show, ladies
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: and gentlemen, it is upon us another blessed and great day. Lord,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: have mercy. Man. Hey, God, I shall appreciate you waking
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: me up this morning. Man, you can tell him my voice.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I'm glad about it. I appreciate everything you do from it,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: all the little things. I thank you for every breath
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: I take. I think you for every move I make.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I thank you for every step I take. Man, all
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and only because of you, I am who I am.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: But by the grace of God. Boy, that's my testimony today.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: That's how I feel like starting this show off this morning.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Shelly Strawberry Colin for real Mississippi Moniticauld Junior kills Faith
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: the legend, Nephew tom Me this Steve Harvey, what Junior?
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Can you come down here and put your minor and
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: hat on? Need a minor and hat for a second?
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: All right? What you got? He? Come down here to
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: my life? Just ask you something, man. You know I'm
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: in a situation. I want to take exactly what it is.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: But I figure it out. Go ahead, Yeah, you'll figure
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: it out. Talk about losses, man, how do you view losses?
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Every loss can't be a loss. It's got to be something.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: But I feel like I may be losing in a
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: situation and it is a dependent upon perspective. Now, what
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: type of loss? If you're talking about life of a
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: loved one or just a loss in life for failure,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: failure in terms of failure, in terms of failing, losing
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: this part of the game. In order to understand truly
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: how to win, you must have been defeated. See if
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: all you did was win, win, win, win, win, what
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: would you know? So when life does what it does
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: to all of us, which entails a number of things,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: that ever, flows of life, the ups and downs. When
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: you in the down moment, it's when you learn how
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: to get up. You got to fall to learn how
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: to stand up. You got to crawl before you walk.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: You need the laws to teach you how to survive
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: them and how to when you get up to appreciate.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: And then once you've lost before you now gain the
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: experience for the next time those evid flows of life
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: come your way. You have experience with dealing with them.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't make it. Doesn't make it, You just
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: get better at handling the losses. The losses are part
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: of the process. Losses and failures are part of becoming successful.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Those who don't want to lose or fail should go
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: somewhere and try not to try. Goos it down and
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: try not to try, because if you try it, you
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: are going to suffer a loss and you are going
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: to fail. I go to my favorite thing. Michael Jordan
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: took nine hundred some game winning shots. Michael Jordan only
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: made a some moment. He's the greatest basketball player ever.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Lil tell me what you're talking about. A baseball player
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: gets paid tens of millions of dollars a year to
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: go up to the plate and become successful. Three out
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: of ten times, he only gets three hits out of
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: ten attempts at the back he batted three hundred. You
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: bat three hundred. Baby. In life, your ass can make
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: tens of millions of dollars. The losses are part of
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: the process. All the jokes you write ain't gonna be funny,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: thus making the ones who do a lot more important.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, thank you for that life lesson.

  Speaker 1: So t I went off um after comedian Lauren Knight

• 29:10
  Speaker 1: that she clapped back because TI heckled her over and over.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Take a listen to TI first, and then take a
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: listen to Lauren's explanation was it is nothing to George before. No, No,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: I stand on what I said. If you're a comedian
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: eings up for jokes about me all day and I've
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: been laughing at some of it, nothing's off limits, nobody's special,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: and please don't walk upon me again. I'm mad, dangerous.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: This is not rat beef. I am not little flip.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I ain't got no problem with TiO. Okay, what's going
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: on in the commented world, and I ain't time. Everybody's
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: so sensitive, little tense out there? What's going on? King
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: of Comedy? Yeah, well, wow, here's my take on it
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: right here. I did understand that t I was heckling
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: the girl. That's what that's that's not even that's what
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: she said. That's not what we do in comedy. Never
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: in my entire career been heckled by a comedian that
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: was sitting in the audience. I've never had a comedian
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: heckle me. But that's but but you can't bring that
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: element to the game because we don't. We really don't
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: do beef very very nine. And you see two comedians
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: going at it, but we very rarely ever do beef
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: just any wrapped we we we we can't do that. Uh. Secondly,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: to go up on the stage snatch the mic from
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the girl all is here, that's just that's just not
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: how it's done. Man. You know the girl on stage,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: You didn't got up out your seat. You you going
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: back and forth with her. And I could tell by
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: the reaction of the audience this was a very uncool moment.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: There was no last going back and forth, and so
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: I just think it was an uncool last moment, a
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: really really uncool last moment for curs coming. I see,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: is it true what she said? Nothing's awful limits urge, nephew,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're not special? Is that true what she said?
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: As a comedian, Steve Guys, it depends on the comedian.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: To our comedian Sam Kennison, nothing was off limits, including
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: the Lord God Almighty. I mean, there's some cats that
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: do believe that whatever they do is right. There are
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: limitations for me. You have a line, Timmy, you got
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: a line. You guys got do y'all have a line? Always? Yeah?
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I mean my line is the edge of that stage
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: and you've been walking answer. That's when my landing did
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: not walk up. I just meant in your routine out
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: of yes, I'm sorry. You can't talk to ain't management.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: You can't talk to I am that's whe all. I
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: am on our sure wheel. I am ain't manage. Oh no,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: you know what like I mean, I think I think
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: he was out of line on this one. He really was.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: He was out of line on this one. You may
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: not have liked what the girl said, right, And is
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: it changing? Is it starting to change? Of course, political
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: correctness has changed comedy forever now now is you can't
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: talk about nothing I don't want you to talk about.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: So that's what it's about. Oh huh, I see. But
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: the number one the number one thing that never got bridge.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Comedians always respected the art form of each other. If
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna talk about, that's on you. I've
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: had the poor comedians all stage behind the stage and say, hey,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: look if you continue down that line of joking with
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: me and you can't work together, so their content to
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: give them a yeah, because if if I'm the headliner
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: and you on my show and you out there in
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: front of me doing some stuff that's that's not and
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: I mean real vile, real vile. I'll come and speak
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: to you and give you a chance to fix it.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: But if you tell me this how I work, then
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: you won't be working with me no more. Because when
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: you get after the audience as mad as hell, ah
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: dog dog, I've had an audience. Tell me I'm talking
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: about when I was major. I'm talking about after the
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Kings of Comedy, still selling out arenas Steve. If you
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: wasn't coming out here next we went home, changes the
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: mood and everything, Yeah, yeah, absolutely, all right, let's get
• 34:06

• 34:33
  Speaker 1: didn't need protecting. She's not a wallflower, the source continued.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: She's a strong woman, an opinionated woman, and she can
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: fight her own battles, but she will stand by him.

  Speaker 1: Excuse all of it, girl, Pause, Jada, I don't need protecting.

  Speaker 1: I'm a strong woman. I'm not a wall flower. I'm
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: an opinionated woman. I'm an opinion But at the Oscars,
• 35:05

• 35:15
  Speaker 1: I need and want somebody to do something for me.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: That's what it said there. And when it came on stage,

  Speaker 1: chicken in the flower, and then she sees in the
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: chicken while it was frying in the grease. Wow season grease. Yeah,

• 36:48
  Speaker 1: way we do it. My mom taught me. It is
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: my mom's recipe. I do believe in washing the chicken.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: And maybe where the video was edited, it looks like
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: I don't wash it long enough. But I definitely do
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: because I feed it to myself and I fitted to
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: his whole school that that's I made. I made it
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: for his school. Um. But anyways, it's all good because

• 37:22
  Speaker 1: uh huh, when didn't start frying in the grease? Just
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: getting seasoned? Yeah? Right, she was gonna get the point
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: to me if the grease wasn't hot enough to fry
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: the chickenish you it ain't. As soon as you dropped
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: that chicken in, you got damn did get back? Yeah? Yeah,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: even I know that. How many years did Robbin eat

  Speaker 1: chicken like this? But you noticed they she did say
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: no about the kids at the school. They didn't They
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: didn't get back a good report. The kids didn't say

  Speaker 1: is Strawberry Letter, subject dotting Thursday. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: a forty eight year old married woman and I've been
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: married since I was twenty two years old. My husband
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: is three years my senior, and he swept me off
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: my feet right after I finished college. I had three
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: kids for him and they are grown. We traveled together
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: and we enjoy life as much as possible, but I
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: wish my husband was a little more involved in the
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: church than he is. We had our wild times and
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: I even smoked weed a few times after I had
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: my last child. There's nothing left for me in the streets,
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: and I'm a homebody now. I want my husband at
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: home with me, but he's still out in the streets.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: And I call it Thursday, and I call Thursdays stotting
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: Thursday because he bar hops with his friends that he's
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: known since high school every Thursday night. I thought we
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: were on the same spiritual journey for the past three
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: or four years, and I had high hopes that he
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: would stop going to the club, but he has not.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: He has no problem going to Bible study one night,
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: then drinking and smoking hookah in the club the next night.
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: He doesn't even come home from work on Thursdays. He
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: heads over to Happy Hour and eats dinner, then he
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: goes to a ghetto bar and lounge, where he stays
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: until it closes. He comes in smelling like sweat and
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: weed mixed with cologne, and he climbs in the bed
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: with me and I have to fight him off of
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: me until he falls asleep. I told him, if he
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: keeps choosing the club over me and his faith, he
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: should stop pretending to be saved. I begged him to
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: go to counseling at church with me. But he doesn't
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: think he's got a problem. I am so worried that
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: a female thought might tempt him into doing something he's
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: not ready for. I feel like my husband and my
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: marriage might be slipping away. How can I keep my
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: husband out of the streets. Well, I mean, quite frankly,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know that you can keep him out of
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: the streets. I mean, he has to want that, and
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: he does want it for six nights of the week.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, your only issue is Thursday that you talk
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: about the problem is you want your husband to do
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: like you and be a homebody like you, and be
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: at home and go on your same spiritual journey. You
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: want him to do that every day all day. But
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: don't you think he needs some time to himself as
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: his wife. I mean, he's not the home body you are.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: It's not like you know, you don't know his every
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: move on Thursday nights because you told us all of
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: it about the hookah and his high school friends, all
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: of that. I mean, I agree, he probably does smell
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: like smoke weed and cologne if he's been out all night,
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: so he probably does need to get his butt in
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: the shower before joining you in bed. But really, I
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: think what you need to do is relaxed and let
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: this man have a little fun one night of the week.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: You gotta stop nagging him even goes to Bible study
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: one of those nights. Not a lot of husbands will
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: do that. I think maybe you need to start getting
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: out more, and you know, stop nagging your husband about this.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, you didn't say that he treats you badly
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: or anything like this. You just say he goes to
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: the club on Thursday nights. Come on, lady, come on now,
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: that's not so bad, Steve, I must say show. I
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: am completely amazed at your response. Oh my god, the
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: growth in you as a woman, and I've watched it
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: after twenty two years, is absolutely phenomenal. I don't know
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: who this woman was reading this Strawberry letter. This certainly
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: is not the Shirley straw This is my answer. This
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: is my answer. The Shelly Strawberry that I knew twenty
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: two years ago would have never responded to this twenty
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: two years Shirley twenty okay, But I'm just I'm complimenting
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: you on your growth, but you don't want it because
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: you are tight because you think it's a criticism, but
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: it's not. But I just don't know the woman that
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: I'm doing the Strawberry letter with no more. We may
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: have to change the name of the letter from Strawberry.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know, just the damn letter with her and met. Uh.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: This is an amazing letter because I'm not really sure
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: if this woman understands what the problem is. You forty
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: eight years old, you've been married twenty six years, um
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: to this man. You're you're ain't said y'all had no problems.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: He's three years older than you. He's fifty one. You
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: forty eight, Uh, didn't know. Your concern is I wish
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: my husband was a little more involved in the church
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: that he is. Okay, that's that's okay, that's fair. We
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: had our wild times and then here you go with
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: some information we don't need. You said, I even smoked
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: weed a few times after I had my last child,
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: the last wait that long started trying weed for anyway.
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: That ain't my business. But you made it man, because
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: you put it in the letter. Had nothing left for
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: me in the streets, and I'm a home body now
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: and I want my husband home with me. Well, see
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: here's the problem. You made a change that your husband
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: wasn't quite in line with. Y'all didn't discuss we're gonna
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: stop going out in the streets. You decided you hadn't
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: had enough, he didn't, and now you called in Thursdays
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: foughting Thursday. You got a husband that's fifty one years
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: old that bab hops with his friends that he's known
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: since high school every Thursday night. That right there, in
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: itself is a little crazy because at fifty one you
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: still bar hopping. That's a little odd to me. That's
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: fifty one. I don't know when bab hopping should stop.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking it can't extend no where where. What's the
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: age limit for bar hopping? Tommy, that is something? That
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: is something, Yeah, and it references to stuff like that.
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: I go to Tommy Junior. You agree, yes about thirty seven,
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: but I will give you up to forty. All right,
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: hang on, Steve, we'll have part two of your response
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour Today's
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: Strawberry Letters subject thotting Thursday. We'll get back into it
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: right after this. You're listening Steve Harpy Morning Show. All right,
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: come on, Steve Let's recap today's Strawberry Letter, the subject
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: thoughting Thursday. Well, we got a funny and gear old
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: woman that's been married to her husband since they was
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: twenty two years old. He's fifty one, she's forty eight,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: and they have children, and they used to enjoy their
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: little street life. But after her third child, and she
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: smoked a little weed. But now she's tired of that
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: and she's a home body nine. She wants her husband
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: to be at home with me, but he's still out
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: in the streets. And she calls him thoughting Thursday because
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: every Thursday he bab hopped with his friends. That's known
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: since high school, bob hopping at fifty one and way
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: late in the game, you long in the tooth. You
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: this ain't this ain't what you do when you're in
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: the club. Got your suit on. They don't even wet
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: suits the clubs. No moment. He ain't he out of line,
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: He out of pocket? Okay. And then she said, I
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: thought we were on the same spiritual journey for the
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: past three or four years. Where are your thought wrong?
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: You thought he didn't think that, And so now I
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: had high hopes that he would stop going to the club.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: But he has not. He has no problem going to
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: Bible study one night, then drinking and smoker who could
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: in the club the next night. Lady, that's really normal.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know where the shock is for you. I
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: can't tell you the people that go to Bible study
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: choir rehearsing prap me but sad to get him. I
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: can't tell you the people that can't hardly get up
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: to attend service in the morning and get their roll
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: on to getting that choir because of what happened Saturday night.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: So it ain't just your husband. Please don't stop thinking
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: because you went to Bible study one night, then drinking
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: a smoker who get in the club the next night.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: He don't even come home from work on Thursdays. That nah,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: here we go. He don't even come home. I ain't
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: even swinging by the house because he don't want to
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: hear your mouth. So he goes straight from he can't
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: wait to Thursday. Him and his boy Thursday, Thursday, bigger.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: This Saturday, man, we're gonna go down. Hell man. He
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: head over the happy hour, He eat dinner, and then
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: he goes to a ghetto bar and a lounge where
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: he stays until it closed. Now, lady, I don't know.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna save my answer for the anyway, he comes
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: in smelling like sweating weed mixed with cologne. He climbs
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: in the bed with me and I have to fight
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: him off until he falls asleep because he's coming home.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: He drunk and he's still smoking. Wee, see you stopped
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: smoking weed. No, he kept smoking weed and he drinking
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: so and he doing anphetamine and a barbituit and he's
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: coming in the house with that mix. That's like when
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: people drank a tequila and Red Bull, vodka and red Bull.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: That's an upper anna down. The red Bull is an anphetamine,
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: means it amps you up. Red Bull amps you up.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: The vodka is a depressant, a ball bituate. That's how
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: you know the difference. Barbituates take you down. A phetamines
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: amps take you up. Now you to mix the two.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: Now he coming there and his brain fall asleep. I
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: told him, if he keeps choosing the club over me,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: I told him, if he keeps choosing the club over
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: me and his faith, he should stop pretending to be saved.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: That's not an ultimatum. See, I was waiting on you
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: to say, if he keeps choosing the club over me
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: and his faith, I'm leaving you said. I told him,
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: if he keeps choosing the club over me and his faith,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: he should stop pretending to be saved. He he might
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: not be pretending to be saved. Hello, we are all sinners,
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: saved by grace. Because you saved, don't mean you don't sin.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: You know on a horle who you thinking had his
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: perfect life? He ain't. I begged him to go to
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: counseling that church with me, but he don't think he
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: got a problem. I'm so worried that a female might
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: tempt him into doing something he's not ready for. What
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: did you just say? Wait a minute home, let me
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: back that lineup. I'm so worried that a female fought
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: might tempt him into doing something he's not ready for.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: What you mean he ain't ready for? And where do
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: you get this? I'm worried that a female might tempt him.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: What you think happening at the club every Thursday they
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: go and die? Now for temptation? They going to that
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: ghetto club for us, They're going down to that ghett
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: old club to drink, get high. It ain't just dudes
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: at that club. Lady, I'm just gonna be real with
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: you so you can stop all this. I'm worried that
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: a female thought might tempt him into doing something he
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: ain't ready for. Lady, I feel like my husband and
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: my marriage might be slipping away. How can I keep
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: my husband out of the streets. You can't. Your husband
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: have to want to come out of the streets. But
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: he old, or he didn't even look good down there
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: no more. But I'll tell you what could show enough
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: break it up. I'm not saying you ought to do this,
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: but if you popped up down there after get old club,
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: little rue at a change everything that there never be
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: the same. I don't suggest you do that because he
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: he ain't gonna he really ain't gonna like you. Then
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: at least he tried to climb in bed with you.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: He come in on Thursday. If you go down, then
• 1:06:01

• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: Former President Barack Obama was back at the White House
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: on Tuesday to celebrate the Affordable Care Act. The former
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: president noted that the healthcare plan, referred to as Obamacare
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: by opponents, is pretty darn popular twelve years after it
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: was passed into law. Take a listen to former President
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama either jokingly or mistakingly calling President Biden. You'll
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: see Vice President Biden, vice President. That wasn't joke. That
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: was all set up, was it? Was it? Yeah? It
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: was yeah? Okay, But you know what about the Obamacare.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: You know, Republicans stopped talking about repealing and replacing Obamacare
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: because it was just too good. Yeah, and they couldn't
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: get the constituents to go along with it. And you, right, Shirley,
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: they had nothing to replace it. You better tell the truth,
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: Shirley Strawberry. And here we are twelve years later, Steve,
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: absolutely great assurance. Right, you ain't never had the Affordable
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: Care Act, remains President Obama's most notable US achievement during

  Speaker 1: his presidency. So there you go, and President Biden just

• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: turning to says, yes, I'm sorry. You know, Um, I
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: wanted to finish up yesterday I was talking about fatherhood
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: and I'm talking to men, and I'm not talking down
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: to men because I haven't always been the father that
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: I am today. I haven't always been the man I
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: am today, So please understand. I understand it's a process.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I was listening to Bishop T. D.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: Jake's online the other day. I don't know a father
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: that can get it one hundred. He says. It's almost
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: impossible for a father to get it one hundred because
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: if you are the especially if you are the main
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: bread winner of the house, if you're out there trying
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: to make the bread, then you're not there, and not
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: being there causes so many problems for the wife, for
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: the child, for the mother, for whoever the situation is. Now.
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 1: If you're there all the time, then you don't have
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: the role of breadwinner, and that creates another problem. Look,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: you can be married to a woman that makes more
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: money than you. There's no shame in that. That's honor.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 1: That's okay, we're not talking about that. But if that
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: bugs you, we have a problem. If that bugs her.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: We have a problem. But if you're a man at
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: the house and you're not doing anything to contribute to
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: the overall well being of that family, we have a problem.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: It's hard to be a man. And this is not
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: in comparison to being a woman, because I have no
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: data on that. I have no expertise in it at all.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I have no idea how
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: they do it, giving birth, making every human being that's
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: on this earth, raising them, taking care of them, standing
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: by their man, being a mama, being a wife. I
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: have no idea, but I do know what it is
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: to be a man. I know everything about manhood. I'm
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: sixty five years old. You can't sitting me down and
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: teach me a lesson about manhood. No, you can't. I'm
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: an expert at this. I've been through every up and
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: down you can be. I'm a sixty five year old
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: black man. I was raised in segregation. What you're going
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: to tell me? I understand difficulties, hardship, hard times, but fellas,
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: it is our job. Once we become a parent, once
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: we father a child, we have a responsibility that comes
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: with that, and it's major and God does not release
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 1: us from that responsive ability. I'm telling you he don't.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: That is no way you can ignore your responsibility with
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: a child and expect to find joy, peace of mind,
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: happiness and success off somewhere else. It's not going to happen.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. That's not my rule. I didn't make that one. Help.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 1: That's not my rule. That is the way it is.
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: I am imploring fathers. I am begging fathers, I really
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: am man. I am begging fathers to get active in
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: your child's life. Being present for your son is imperative.
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 1: Being present for your daughter is imperative. So many adult
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: women are suffering hurt today because they never had a
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: snapshot of view of what a man's love really looks like.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 1: And they've been stumbling through their life trying to get
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 1: it right because they never saw somebody treat their mother
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: the right way. It is imperative that you get in
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: them daughters live, that you show them that a man's
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: love has nothing to do with physicality, that a man's
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 1: love is honor, respect, taking care of protection, listening, solving problems.
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: That's what manhood is. It is imperative, father that you
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: get in these boys live, because your boy's gonna be
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: one of two types of men. He gonna go and
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: be a good man, or he's gonna grow and be
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: a bad man. Whatever the example is in front of
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: him most of the time is the pattern of behavior
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: that he will duplicate. It works just like that, Man
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: and Fellas. It ain't about how much money you've got. Now.
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 1: I know there are some women who are making it
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: about that, and I'm asking you women to listen to me.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 1: You got to stop that. Because your man is behind
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: on child support, or your man ain't up to date
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: with child support, and you denying him access to his
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: children until he catch up on them payments, You're messing
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: it up for your child. You're messing it up for
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: you child. Your child don't need a payment. Your child
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: needs that father figure. Your child needs the ability to say,
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna call my daddy. Your child needs the ability
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: to say I'm gonna tell my daddy, I'm gonna go
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 1: get my daddy. That's what your child needs. Now. You
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: may not need that for him as a man, but
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: your child will forever need that. Don't take that from
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: me and Fellas. I don't care where you're sitting with
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: your money. I don't care where you're sitting, with your
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: job position or whatever. Get on that phone and get
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: a relationship with your child. It is your duty, it
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: is your honor, and it is a privilege. But above
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 1: all else, God ain't letting you go. You gotta get
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: it right, fellas. I'm sorry. He ain't gonna let you
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: prosper on the other side of the town if you
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: ain't doing your business on the right side of town.
