  Speaker 1: know what I mean. I mean, man, you just can't
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: do what you want to do and just live wrong
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: all the time. Man, you got it at one point
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: in time, Steve, come home. Man, come on, man, you
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: could do better. I know you can, you know saying,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: and you know what I had to do. I had
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: to stop saying. I'm gonna try to do better, and
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I just had to say, hey, man, I'm going to
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: do better. You know, trying it is just to put
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: forth an effort and then if it don't work, well okay.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: But if you make up in your mind and I'm
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: going to do something, then trying isn't enough. It's getting
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: it done is the only thing that matters. Sin It's
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: the difference between doing and trying. We're gonna try to
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: win the game, or we're gonna go out here to
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: win the game. Now, trying to win the game means
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: that you could lose. But when you got in your
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: mind made up, most athletes will tell you that they
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: go out there with the full intent and purpose of
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: winning and winning. Only see they don't put the second
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: place finish on the cover Sports Illustrated. Second place don't
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: get you there. You got to win. And now take
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: it out of the scope of athletics, but keep it
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: in that type of type of analogy in life. Man,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: you just want to you want to win in life,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: don't you. I mean, at the end of the day,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: don't you want to be on the cover of Sports
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Illustrated the life Don't you want to be recognized for
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: your hard work. Don't you want, you know, to be
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: recognized within the bonus structure down at your job. Don't
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you want to have your plaque up on the wall
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: down at your job? I mean most people do. Some
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: people could care less. Some people don't care about looking
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: good or being their best. And that's cool. But I
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: ain't talking to them though. I'm talking to you. I'm
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: talking to those of you who want to be the
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: best you can be. You know, people kill me when
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: they're getting mad at people here and he Brown knows
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: and he hall up on an employee of them. All. Man,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the dude doing his job to the best of his ability,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: and he getting recognized for it? What they got to do?
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: It all that you're talking about because you ain't up there.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: There's an amazing man, how people describe other people's success.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: He's so lucky, lucky? Hey man, don't they kind of
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: get you a little bit when people call you lucky?
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: When let me tell you what luck really is, y'all.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Luck is when hard work bumps up into opportunity. Some
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: people call that luck. But hold on, let's think about this.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: If you wasn't working hard an opportunity presented itself, what
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: would you call that. But see, when you've been working hard,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: an opportunity presents itself and it bumps up into each other.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Now people want to call that luck. But hold up here,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: go to part though to day, ain't paying no attention
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: to Yeah, that opportunity came by. But if you had
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: not been working hard and the hard work had not
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: ran up in the opportunity, what would you have? No, sir,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: it's not luck, it's work. It is work, because as
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: a scripture that says, faith without works is dead. But
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: my mama was a Sunday school teacher. She taught me enough.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Though Now I know different between right and wrong, just
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: like you do. You ain't gotta you know itcus me
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: when people write a strawberry letter? Am I wrong for this?
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: You know? Gooding? Well, look at let's read your letter?
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Are you wrong for this? You know you're wrong? What
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: you don't need that's to be telling, you know? But
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this anyway. Well e see, go ahead, though,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: do what you want to do. But you know what, y'all,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: here's the best advice I can give you. This is
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: what I really came to talk about this morning, but
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: I got sidetrack because I listened, get out of your
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: own way. So many of us are blocking our home
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: blessings were just in our own way. We are in
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: our own way. And one of the most dangerous ways
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: you can get in your way is to do it
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: your way, to get it figured your way, and to
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: lock in on your way and just the way it's
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: got to go. Do you know how many people are
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: blocking a blessing? Do you know how long I blocked
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: mine with that mindset? Right there? Look, because it's the
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: way you do it, Do you think that make it
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the right way? You think jazz because you didn't thought
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: on it long and hard, and that's what you really want.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Do you really think that your way is the right
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: way or could that be a better way? See? Until
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: I started listening to God and started paying attention to
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: his way, man, I was spending my wheels. Man, I
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: was out here so determined this how I was going
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: to do it. But you know I had to learn
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: how to get out of my own way because just
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: because I could do it my way didn't mean it
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: was the right way. I had to get out of
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: my own way. Just get out your way, man, Now,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: what what does that mean? That means? See? Set your goals.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: That means have your dreams. That I'm saying, set your goals. Man,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I ain't saying don't set goals. Listen to me. Set
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: your goals. What is it you want to happen? What
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: is it you like to have? What is it you
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: like to be? What are you aspire to? Set your
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: goals and set your dreams. Now take your goals and
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: your dreams to God and ask God to show you how. Man,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: you can save yourself a lot of pain. Listen to
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: somebody who did it his way for so long. And
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: when I finally got out of my way, out of
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: my own way. When you've heard old people say, let
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: go and let God, you've heard them say that I didn't.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I didn't get it, but I got it. Now let
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: go and let God. And it's amazing little saying. Though
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: now you know you may not get it now. It
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: took me a bunch of years to get it too.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: But when I took my goals and my dreams and
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: my vision to God and I said, God, this is
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: what I hope for, this is what I aspired to,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: this is what I want to be, this is why
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I would love to get to. Then I said help me,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: show me how point me in the right direction. Let
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: me follow your footsteps, guide me and give me a
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: spirit of discernment. Show me who wrong? Because I meet
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: people every day. Ain't up to no good with me
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: every single day. Oh man, Man, I can't believe I
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: run up into you. Man, the Lord told me something's
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: gonna happen to me today. Well, see, I talked to
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: him every day. He did not mention you to me.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: He ain't said nothing to me. He didn't tell me
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: what was gonna happen in mind. Now, I don't mean
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: it can't happen because I'm open to it. So really, man,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: I'm and and please know I'm listening as well as
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I've ever listened before. But but get yourself together, though,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: see no your goals in your dreams, and then let
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: God show you how to do it. He'll do it.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: You know. It's so important everybody, that you get focused,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: that you aim for something, that you dream of something,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: that you aspire to something. But it's the most the
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: best thing you can do. After you do all that, Man,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: get God involved in it. Man, talk to him. I mean,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: why would you not what you got to lose? You
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: ain't got to go down there and make no big
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: scene and run laps around the church and run up
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: there and throw yourself on the altar and scream and
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: flip over and throw money in the air. You ain't
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: got to do that. This you and God, man, This,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: you and God. You know you got to serve and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: praise him the way you do it. You gotta let
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: nobody else tell you highs done. It's a personal relationship.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: People kill me if you don't do it this way.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: If you don't come here to this church and you
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: don't run around in this circle and you don't get
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: flipped in the air, you don't, Hey, man, you better
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: go have a relationship with God. See what that's about.

  Speaker 1: have reached a new level of gratitude with my heavenly Father.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: I just really man started understanding that and really really
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: facing the fact that the more gratitude I showed, the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: more things he'll give me to be grateful for. So
• 10:35

  Speaker 1: effort to stay grateful, stay in touch with him, talk
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: with him continually, stop trying to figure my life out,

• 13:30
  Speaker 1: two after, we're gonna talk about the first public impeachment hearings.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Unless you have more to say, nephew, Uncle Steve. Wow,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: We're gonna do that right after this. You're listening to
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: the morning show, all right. So TikTok, TikTok. Yesterday was
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the first public impeachment hearing um. The Democrats decided to
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: start the hearings with two State Department witnesses, Bill Taylor,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the top US diplomat in Ukraine, and Deputy Assistant Secretary
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: of State George Kent. Both Taylor and Kent have long
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: careers and deep experience with Ukraine in particular, and both
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: are rather appalled by what President Trump did with Ukraine.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Democratic Chairman Adam Schiff said in his opening statement, is
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: this what Americans should now expect from their president. Take
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: a listen. Is this what Americans should now expect from
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: their president? If this is not an impeachable conduct, what
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: is does the oath of office itself requiring that our
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: laws be faithfully executed, that our president defend a constitution
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: that balances the powers of its branches, setting ambition against ambition,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: So we become no monarchy, still have meaning. These are
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: the questions we much ask an answer without rank, or
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: if we can without delay, regardless and without party favor,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: and without prejudice, if we are true to our responsibilities.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Benjamin Franklin was asked what kind of a country America
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: was to become public. He answered, if you can keep it.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: The fundamental issue raised by the impeachment in Korean too,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump, is can we keep it without prejudice
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: and without partisanship? Yeah, two things that this country is
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: not really good at all. So here we go. We've
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: started the inquiry process for impeachment. The Republicans are gonna
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: sit over there and just go, he's done nothing impeachable. Uh,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: you know, he's done apps. There was no prope whatever
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: they call it or whatever they want to call it.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: That was none of that he's done nothing illegal. The
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: economy is booming. Uh, there's we've got enough people that
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: says that that's not what he was doing, and that's
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: where they're gonna sit. But also I got what they're
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: gonna sit. Are we being aggressive though? Are the Democrats
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: being a press? Well let me say this. I saw
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: the opening and Um, the Democrats laid out their case.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: They definitely have a case. Uh. The Republicans tried to
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: stop Adam Shipp in his opening statement at every turn.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I think his name is Jim Jordan, the one they
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: called the bulldog. He was on Ready set go. Did
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: have a question though, yeah, wish Yeah, Adam Schiff handled
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: himself very well. It was dignified. Uh, they have they
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: do have a case. Uh. Bill Taylor, Ambassador Taylor and
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Deputy Secretary of State George Kent. They both spoke very well.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: They spoke their truth. So, um, that's all I got
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: a chance to see today. Yeah, I didn't see it.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: I'm still out the country. But here's here's here's my problem.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: The Democrats. I believe they do have a case. I
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: believe that in the House he will get voted to
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: take it to impeachment. But when it gets to the Senate,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: whether Republicans have the majority. I don't see how it's
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: gonna get out of the Senate. And it has to
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: get out of the Senate to become an impeachable offense,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: to my understanding, that's the way it works. Yes, so
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: I don't see they're gonna hold party, Lineman. This is
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: the most racially divided and bipartisanship I've ever seen. Ever.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: They don't work across the out on a damn that
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: bipartisan whatever that bipartisan means, they work together, Democrats and
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Republicans partison. If they don't, yeah, well they ain't dead.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: But but to I mean abuse of power for sure,
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: abuse of power for sure. So we'll see how it goes. Uh.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: It was just crazy, uh, David Nunez his opening statement,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I mean it read like, uh like he was doing
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: a TV show or or lines from a movie or something.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: It was just um. Anyway, it's going to go on
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: this week and next week as the witnesses continue to
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: come in and tell their side of the story. So
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: we'll be watching, of course. Are they showing this on Fox? Yes,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: I ever ChIL okay, Yeah, then that's gonna be interesting.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: That's gonna be interesting because a lot of Fox viewers
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: have never seen the facts that CNN lays out because
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Fox don't report that. Fox does not report everything that
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the President has done, every lie he's told. They don't,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: they don't, they don't show it that way. They just
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: flat out don't report a lot of what he does.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: And that's what keeps his U base energized. It's gonna
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: be real interesting when all of them sitting now. He'll
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: lose some support, but his bay, those people are just
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: And the thing about it was that what I did
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: learn from it, Steve, the takeaway was that Rudy Giuliani
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: is our secretary of State. Hey, and I don't know.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Giuliani was hoping dim to shut up talking. Yea, so
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: he needed to be in now. Yeah, forget Mike Pompeo.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Rudy Giuliani is a Secretary of State. Okay, he was
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: handling our forum foreign policy. Well, guys. The next plan
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: hearing is on Friday, when former US Ambassador to Ukraine
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Marie Ivanovitch is slated to testify. That's a woman that
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: was fired. She was ousted from her post back in April,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: so she wasn't around from any of the key events
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: of this scandal, but her fate is sort of prologue
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to the story, since she is viewed as the victim
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: of a smearpan campaign from the president's lawyer. Here's its
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: name again, Rudy Giuliani and his Ukrainian allies that the
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: President claims he doesn't know, but he's in all these
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: pictures with them. So um, it's interesting. Yeah, it's very interesting. Yeah,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: interesting to watch. Rudy is in a lot of trouble. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: he's not gonna testify. Man, I don't believe nothing this guy. No.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: I think he's just gonna refuse. And you can indict
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: a sitting president, so what they're gonna do to him?
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I just think he's gonna refuse. He's never gonna show
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: you his tax returns. He's not doing none of that.

  Speaker 1: on s miss ed trill, Thank you very much. Okay,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: this is answered with the news. The House Intelligence Committee
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: offen the public phase of it's impeachment and career yesterday.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: If you didn't see. It started out with a testimony
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: by Deputy Assistant Secretary for European and Eurasian Affairs, George
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: Kent and the acting US Ambassador in Ukraine at William Taylor,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: a tailor board witness to a scheme that he and
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Kent described as being direct opposition to US interests, and
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: which he further described as wildly orthodox and way out
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: of biology. I think it's crazy to withhold security assistance
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: for help with a political campaign. What did you mean
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: when you said you thought it was crazy. I meant
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: that because of the importance of security assistance, because that
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: was so important, That security ass was so important for
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Ukraine as well as our own national interest. To withhold
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: that assistance for no good reason other than help with
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: a political campaign made no sense. It was illogical, It
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: could not be explained. It was crazy falseman largely repeated
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: the testimony that they gave closed towards. Meanwhile, President Trump
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: received another legal slap yesterday. The US Appeals Court decided
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: not to revisit an October decision supporting a House subpoena
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: for his financial records. Trump's lawyers can still appeal to
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. Ohio Congressman Tim Ryan says he's endorsing
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden for president. Ryan, a former presidential candidate himself,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: tells MSNBC that this election is more than just beating
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. He says, it means more to the American
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: people than just beating the man. The best thing we
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: can do for the environment and climate change is to
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: beat Donald Trump or provide healthcare and prescription drugs. We've
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: got to beat Donald Trump. And to me, it's clear
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: as you go round and round and think about all
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: of these great candidates, that that's Joe Biden, and I'm
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: going to support him. I'm going to do everything I
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: can for him in the Early States and then the
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Midwest to help him become the nominee and beat Donald Trump. Meanwhile,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: there's another possible entry former Massachusetts Governor Duval Patrick, who,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: as reportly, told some senior Democrats he's ready to enter
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: the primary race tomorrow. Cops and Philly say that an
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: eleven month old baby shot several times when his father
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: allegedly took him along on a drug deal as a
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: human shield, thinking nobody would shoot the child. The baby
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: shot in the head, torso, and if he survives, would
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: most likely be a quadriplegic. That father in the feast
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: Monroe is obviously under arrest, Yes he is. Yesterday, Colin
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Kaepernick tweeted in response to the NFL hosting a private
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: workout for him in Atlanta over the weekend, and an
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: NFL analyst, Ian Rappaport says that Jay Z, who's been
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: working with the NFL and some social justice issues, was
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: involved in that and pushed the idea. Today's nationale Teddy

• 38:39
  Speaker 1: All right? Well, listen, coming up at thirty four after
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: the hour, we're gonna do some trending sports news. Colin
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Kaepernick gets an NFL workout. We'll talk about that right
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: after the time you're listening and trending sports news. Colin
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: Kaepernick's chances of returning to the NFL bell will get
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: a big boost this weekend, when he will get to
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: work out for representatives from all thirty two teams. Thirty
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: two year old Kaepernick hasn't played since twenty sixteen, which
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: is when he began protesting police brutality and racial injustice
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: by kneeling during the national anthem. The league invited him
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: yesterday to an open workout in Atlanta on Saturday that
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: all teams are welcome to attend. Kaepernick will get on
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: the field to show whether or not he's still in
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: game shape, and will also sit for interviews, but it
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: is unclear how many teams will actually attend, especially since
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: they've been given such short notice. Kaepernick's reps asked the
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: league to move the workout to Tuesday because half of
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: the teams will be busy traveling on Saturday, and therefore
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: some coaches in general managers may not be available to attend.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so today, move it to Tuesday. No,
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: it's gonna know, yeah, it's gonna be Saturday. Yeah. Well,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: who you think he could play for it? Right now?
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Who can use a quarterback right now? I don't know. Well,
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, man, let's I like calling,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: I really really do. He hasn't played in a while,
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: and last time he did play it was an effective play.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: Do I think he deserves a shot? Absolutely? Now, are
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: the teams who could use take a look at him? Yes,
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: I think Uh. I think that Chicago could take a
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: look at him because they have a struggling QB situation
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: up there. I think he would be good to look
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: at down in Tampa Bay because they're struggling a bit,
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: I think, And you know, I think it's a lot
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: of places, man, that could use some um the Jets
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: need to back up. Uh, it's a lot of teams
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: need to back up, you know. And so he's I
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: think he's worth a look. I don't. I don't know
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: that he could start for anybody right now, but he
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: could definitely yeah, I think I don't think he could
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: start for anybody right now, but I think he's definitely
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: cap buller playing backup and then getting a shot at
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: the starting job. You gotta remember he ain't been hit
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: in three fo you yeah at all? Yeah, he has
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: no contact though he doesn't every day, right, Yeah, with
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: getting hit, that shape can change. Yeah yeah, yeah, But
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: I'm glad of giving him some kind of shot. I
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: hope it's I hope it's a good shot. Yeah, me too,
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You know, it's kind of
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: little little funkingness to it. It's sad this short notice.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: You know, they gave him sad a lot of teams traveling,
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: like they said, you know, so you know, it's kind
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: of got a little taken or leave it flavor to it,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: but you know, you never know. I hope he lands somewhere.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: I really really do, right, I really really do. Man.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: I just like the fact that he's not giving up
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: on his dream. You know, that's his dream to play football, obviously,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: and um he's staying in shape and he's staying ready
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: so he won't have to get ready. That part I
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: like it about. You know, it's saying about money he
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: got money. Yeah, I want to play. He wants to play,
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: he want compete, man, And I think I'm with him.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: I like him a lot. I like him a lot.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: I hate that they played him out so long in
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: his prime years, but yeah, I think he's good. Is
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: it like? But you know, if you stay in great shape,
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: you know, like like like a Brady or something like that,
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: it can happen. Bred far play for a long time.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: You know, quarterbacks up, you know, right, they stick around.
• 42:50

  Speaker 1: for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter, Dear Stephen Shirley.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: The subject her old man is taking care of my family.
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: I jumped ahead of myself, excited to get into this one.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: Dear Stephen Shirley, I have two children with my high school. Sweetheart,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: we both come from seriously dysfunctional families, and we were
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: all each other had. Shortly after we graduated, I got
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: incarcerated for eighteen months on a drug possession charge. During
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: this time, my kid's mother met an older guy, and
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: he began to take care of her and my kids.
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: He bought her a new car and moved her and
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: the kids into an upscale apartment. I'm not a fool,
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: so I know there was give and take in this situation,
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: but I was locked up, so what could I say.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: I've been out of jail for about nine months, and
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: he has continued to cover all of my family's expenses.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: I talked to my girl about the older guy, and
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: she says she has no problem with me staying with
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: her and getting my life back on track. But here's
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: a big problem. I can't take the disappearance of my
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: girl once or twice a week. I know where she's going,
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: but we never talk about it, and feel I feel
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: more and more emasculated each time she disappears. I have
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: a decent job, but it's not the type of job
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: that will keep her in the lifestyle she's accustomed to.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: The only way I know how to do that would
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: be to go back to doing what got me sent
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: to jail years ago. My girl told me that she
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: hopes I can step up to the plate and take
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: care of my family so she can let the guy
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: go and we can be a family again. I appreciate
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: this guy for holding it down while I was gone,
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: but she needs to let him go now and adjust
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: her lifestyle a little bit, but a little bit. I
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: have thought about leaving while I still have some pride
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: and dignity, but I couldn't stand leaving my children again.
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: Is it too much to ask for her to move
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: to a less expensive apartment that we can build a
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: new life together. She says she loves me more than anything,
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: but I'm not so sure. What should I do? Please advise, Well,
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: if she loves you more than anything, seems like you
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: would be with you and she would have already left
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: this older guy. And if you love her like you
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: say you do, you have to take that chance. You
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: got to take that risk and ask her, you know,
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: what does she want to do or will she come
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: back to you and move to a lesser lifestyle. You know,
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: sometimes when you get introduced to two different things and
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: newer things, you get accustomed to it, and you don't
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: want to leave that situation, but you know you can
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: take the risk and ask her, please don't go back
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: to doing what you used to do to make money.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: You already know the end of that movie. Okay, you
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: know that drugs is not the way to go. I
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: do hope you get yourself together. I really do. You
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: sound like a decent guy, you know. However, you're moving
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: in with her knowing the circumstances. You know, is there
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: a time limit? Are you have you made a plan?
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to stay with you for a
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: couple of months until I get myself together. Then I'm
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: gonna get my own and I want you and the
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: kids to come back to me. That seems how it
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: should work out, you know, And then you won't have
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: to sit there and watch her go back and forth
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: to this man and all of that. So that's my
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: advice to you. Save your money, get yourself together, get
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: out of there with her where you can see what's
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: going on, and ask her if she wants to come back.
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Do you really still want her back? If you love her,
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: then that's what you're gonna have to do. I don't
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: think you should uh, you know, leave your kids and
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: all of that, but get your own stuff, your own
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: self stuff, and you know, get your own house so
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: you can be with her and be with your family
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: if that's still what she wants to do. But even
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: if she doesn't come with you, you'll have your own
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: place where your kids can come. Steve, this is a
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: pretty sad letter because this is a young brother had
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: wrote this letter. And you know, I could have a
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: ton of jokes for this, but let me try to
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: help you a little soldier. Let me let me try
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: to just give you what I think. You got two kids,
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: which is your ultimate responsibility. With your high school sweetheart.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: You both came from seriously dysfunctional families, you say, And
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: so that's pretty much explains what we're gonna hear in
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: this letter. You say, shortly after y'all graduated, you got
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: incarcerated for eighteen months for drug possession. Then while you
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: await your baby, mama met an older man and he
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: began taking care of her and my kids, well the kids,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: hern the kids that put y'all in the upscale apartment,
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: you know. Then you say, I ain't no food, so
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: I know there was some give and taking. This situation,
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: but I was locked up, so what could I say. Now,
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: you've been out of jail now for nine months, and
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: he has continued to cover all of my family's expenses.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: You just said a little bit earlier. You know that
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: some give and taking this relationship. He's continuing to take
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: care of all your family's expenses. I talked to him
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: a girl about the older guy. She says, she ain't
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: got no problem with me staying with her getting my
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: life back on track, which is exactly what she didn't
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: had to tell this man that my baby's father got
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: out of jail and I need to help him so
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: he can get his life on track. Not an older guy.
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: Young man then went along with this because she got
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: to come over there a couple of times a week,
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: and that's all it was. And so they had a
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: little arrangement going. So as long as she's keep coming
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: over two times a week, this ain't gonna be no
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: problem for her, I mean for him. So you talk
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: to my girl, she said, she ain't got no problem
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: with you staying with her. But here's the big problem.
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: I can't take the disappearance of my girl once or
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: twice a week. I know where she's going, but we
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: never talk about it, and I feel more and more
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: emasculated each time she disappeared. Is yes you do, and
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: yes you should, and we come back. I'm tell you
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: what I think. All right, we're gonna have heard two
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hour.
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: Subject of today's Strawberry Letter, her old man is taking
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: care of my family. We'll be back right after this.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: You're listening, all right, Steve, Come on, let's recap today's
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: Strawberry letter. This subject her old man is taking care
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: of my family. Here's a deal without the jokes. Here's
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: a young man that was high school sweetheart to had
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: two kids. Soortly after they graduated, he got arrested on
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: drug possession. He served eighteen months. While he was away,
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: his girl started dating this older man. He'd moved her
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: and the two kids into an upscale apartment, and when
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: he got out, he wanted to get his life back together.
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: So he's thinking he had something. She said, I don't
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: mind you stand here while you get your life together,
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: sounding me like, you know, get yourself together and then
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: get your stuff and get out. I don't know, I'm
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: just saying she don't mind you coming over that you
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: get your life together. But you know there's a give
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: and take. This man paying all these bills, taking care
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: of these kids. She disappears twice a week. Now when
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: she disappears, young man just throws you into something and
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: you say, you feel more and more emasculated. Now that's
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: a pretty good word for somebody that's being locked up
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: for eighteen months. So you've obviously taken some time and
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: you're pretty articulate. God, where you even put this letter together?
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: So I got a decent job, but it's not the
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: type that will keep her in the lifestyle she's accustomed to.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: Not The only way that you know how to do that,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: you say, is go back to the thing that got
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: you locked up. Okay, now let's be for real now,
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: partner being locked up, there's nothing in your house worth
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: getting locked up for or less. Somebody try to do
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: bodily harm to your wife and kids. This ain't your
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: wife and these are your kids. Now, if you protect
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: your kids life, that's one thing. But you want to
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: buy some stuff, So you're gonna go back in prison
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: cause of that? Oh no, sun oh no, sun oh no,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: oh no, We're not gonna do that no more. You know,
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: sometimes when you get when you get locked up, sometimes
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: when you lose stuff like your freedom or everything you own.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: Sometimes God trying to get our attention to let us
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: see something, and you might be getting the attention of
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: what you see. Maybe your girl is a little bit tricky. Now, Look,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: she disn't appeared twice a week. But then you know
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: she told you that she hoped you could step up
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: to the plate and take care of my family, so
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: she can let the guy go. What so, in other words,
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: until you can prove to be more, she ain't letting
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: this other guy go. Hold up, man, what kind of
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: chick is this? Now? And we can be a family again.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: Whoa wait a minute. But until then, I'm gonna keep
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: sleeping with this dude over here. You don't need to
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: say nothing, because he taking care of business that you couldn't.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: Now you said, I appreciated this guy for holding it
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: down while I was gone. Now you didn't stop saying
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: that you didn't. That's a nice manly thing to say,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: But you didn't appreciate that because you wish you was
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: here doing it yourself. Now he got a little bit
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: more money than you. Now, your family over there, and
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: now you say you appreciate him holding it down, But
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: she needs to let him go now and adjust her
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: lifestyle a little bit. I have thought about leaving, you know,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: while I still have some pride and dignity, but I
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: couldn't stand leaving my children again. It's too much to
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: ask of her to move? Is it too much to
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: answer to lose a specif apartment so we could build
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: a new life together. She said she loves me more
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: than anything. Well you can find that out. All you
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: got to do is say, baby, I got the money
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: for a lesser apartment. I want my family together. I
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: don't want you to have to try to service this
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: debt with this older guy. I don't want you to
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: have to pay for your rent with your body. So
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: I think we all adjust. I got us a place
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: we can all be in his school a little bit tight.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: And you find out right away if she loves you
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: or she loved the arrangement she got. Does she love
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: you or she loved lifestyle she got? And I ain't
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: really saying nothing bad against this little girl. She got
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: put in a tough position when you got sent away
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: for eighteen months. But now you're back, and you want
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: some things to go back to where they were, but
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: sometimes they're not meant to go back to where they were,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: young man, and that's oftentimes where we have to learn
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: in life. The things we want may not be what's
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: in the plan and the master plan. So you gotta
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: kind of be open to that because maybe you're finding
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: out some things. If it ain't this dude right here, partner,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: it could be somebody else. Now, I'm not gonna do
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: what women do is say that wants a cheat, always
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: a cheat. I'm not gonna say that. I'm saying, but
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: you got to at least find out if she's willing
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: to cut some of this goal, if she loves you
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: more than anything and want y'all to work together as
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: a family, or she gonna keep service in this debt
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: because that's what she's doing, and that puts you the
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: bad position. You're dog gonna write it to masculate you.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: Every time you look out the door, you know your
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: girl going somewhere twice a week, staying out all times
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: a night. You're at the house, these kids. You know
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: where she at, but y'all don't say nothing about it.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: So I don't want you to get frustrated and then
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: wind up doing something stupid. So before you do that,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: I know you think if you walk away that it's
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: just gonna push your into his arms. But she's already
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: in his arms, so you're really not pushing her nowhere.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: You're just moving out so you can get yourself together,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: and I think you need to focus on that. Keep
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: taking care of your kids. Don't never stop taking care
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: of your children. That's our responsibility as men. Whether we're
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: in love with the girl or not anymore, has nothing
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: to do without responsibility as men and fathers. You have
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: a main obligation to take care of your children. If
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: you do that, then you're being a man. There's nothing
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: that says you have to stay with her, try to
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: work through it or work it out. If you don't
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: want to, you don't have to, but you do have
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: to take care of them kids. That's not an option
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: on excuse. So take care of kids and then ask
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: her if she ready to make this thing a family.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: You know, everybody make mistakes, and give her a chance
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: to let you know where she stands on it. That's
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: my suggestion, Steve, that's right. You can post your comments
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: on Today's Strawberry Letter at Steve Harvey FM on Instagram

  Speaker 1: deep admiration for a lot of people who ain't got
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: no problem with their lifestyle because that's what they do
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: if they had that money. I really believe that he
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: believed he is the dictator. He is al half his king.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: He believed he is everything and everything he does. He
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: cooled with doing it because about around him is either
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: suckers are scared and they won't walk up and boss
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: up on this dude. But I think the hearings is
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: off the chain. They dropping so many dimes and man,
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: people get oh toad on Junior Jill. They need to
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: stop them too from talking. That's what they need to do.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: If Trump need to get out of that White House,
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: get down into their Capitol hill and stop them too.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: Mad they go testify, they define subpoenis and everything. They say,
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: you can't tell me who I'm a talk, but they
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: get indignant. They just show up stop telling stuff. You'd
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: be like, damn all that, Cheryl, thank you so much. Carl.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: We gotta get out of coming up at the top
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: of the hour. I know, right, Uh? Is Rihanna trying
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: to tell us something? We'll get into it right after
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: this you're listening to all right, here's the question. Is Rihanna,
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: who we all know him love? Is she trying to
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: tell us something in order for Rihanna to shine bright
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: like a diamond? Or wait, let me change that, because
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: her name is Rihanna, Okay, Rihanna. In order for Rihanna
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: to shine bright like a diamond, she might be taking
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: a break. She's thirty one years old. She's an entrepreneur.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: We all know that. Well. Yesterday, Rihanna took to Instagram
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: to share a pouty selfie while wearing an oversized black hat,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: gold chains, and a T shirt that read art school dropout.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: Okay now. In the caption, she wrote to all my friends, family,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: co workers who I have yet to get back to
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: in the past month, Please forgive me. This year has
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: been quite an overwhelming one and I'm working on that
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: ish called balance BRB. All right, we all know that
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: BRB means be right back right. That was the final
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: message to her fans. So the question is, is Rihanna
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: gonna be right back? Is she taking a break? Uh? Well,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: she'd be a big round booty. I thought that would
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: be our big for us. Huh, It's be right back
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: okay all day? All right? Oh yeah, bunty. I mean,
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: but we all need to take a break every now
• 1:10:18

• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: she's got so much. She hasn't made music in what
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: three four years? Now, people are are really asking her
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: to make music, but um, sometimes you know it does.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, I believe there's some truth to it that
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: this year has been an over elming one because she's
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: been busy, busy, busy, you know, yeah, everything get still
• 1:11:10

• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: mean she's made a lot of money, man, she can
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: afford to take some time off and and just and
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: just reinvent or do something, you know, whatever heart desire. Really, man,
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: we all have to reinvent ourselves soon or late, all
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: of us. Just so that's right, that's right if we
• 1:11:29

  Speaker 1: and some closing inspirational remarks from the one and only
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: Steve Harvey coming up at forty nine minutes after the hour.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: Here we are last break of the day. Guys. It's
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: been a pretty fun, crazy, crazy ignorant day on this
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: crazy ignorant show. A lot of fun today. But Steve,
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: now it's time to get a little serious and I
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: just want to encourage people to do something really, really
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: simple today. And I think this is something that most
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: people would agree to want. It's really this simple. Everybody
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: should want more for your life. I'm talking about your
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: life right there, the one that you have, You should
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: want more for your life. You should never allow yourself
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: to become complacent. Now I want you to understand something.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: Some people get complacency confuse with they don't want to
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: seem ungrateful. Once again, some people get complacency confused with
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: not wanting to appear ungrateful. Well, I don't want to
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: keep asking God for nothing because I don't want him
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: to think I ain't grateful for what I have. Well,
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: thank you for it. Then that's really simple. Simply thank
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: God for what you have. That's the gratitude. But then
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: it's still okay to want more for your life. Here's
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: the good news. God actually wants you to have more
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: for your life. God is really looking for people to
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: show off. He really is. I happen to raise my
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: hand all the time in volunteer I do. I just
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: say God, pick me, come on, do me, use me,
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: show me. Now that doesn't mean I'm perfect, I'm far
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: from it. But I do want God's blessings to be
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: able to flow through me, So I keep an open
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: channel in my life for that stuff to float. First
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: of all, I want more, that's the beginning of getting it.
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: Then I have the good sense to ask him for more.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: You have not because you ask not. Well, I happen
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: to be a big asker of stuff, So now I
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: want more. I ask for more. Now here's the trick
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: to asking for more and wanting more. You have got
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: to be willing to do more. Oh, now you gotta
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: do more. Now. That's the one thing that stops so
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: many people from having and wanting more for their life.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: If God will give you blessings and God will increase
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: your measure in life, if God comes to give you
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: life and give you life more abundantly, if He's promised
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: to do that for you, And what you have to
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: do in return is you have to be willing to
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: do more. See you, you can't get more without doing more.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: Convenience is built through inconvenience, you can stop wanting what
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 1: you see everybody else with and you ain't willing to
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: do what everybody else did to get it. Quick look
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: at it, Oprah's pile over there. If you ain't willing
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 1: to do what Oprah did, which Tom an average person
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: is not because the average person wants to be comfortable,
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: and you can't be successful and stay comfortable. I was
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: interviewing the wrestler on my show yesterday day. But teach
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: a great story. Man. This camp was really out of it,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: really really fascinating story he had. And we were talking
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: and he was talking about living outside your comfort zone.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: And I told him one of the things that I've
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: had to learn how to do in order to become
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: successful is I've had to become comfortable with being uncomfortable.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: He said, wow, Wow, that's a great way to put it, Steep.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: I have learned how to be comfortable while I'm uncomfortable.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: Because in order to get successful, you have to be uncomfortable.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: You have to do things that you don't feel like
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: doing all the time. You have to show up when
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: you don't want to show up. You have to be
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: there when you feel like being somewhere else. You have
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: to say yes a lot of times when you really
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: want to just say no. That's where you're at, man,
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: That's how you become successful. But you can't keep asking
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: God for more and you ain't willing to do more.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense. It cannot happen that way
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: for so come on, I want you to want more
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: for your life. But there's a scripture that that bags
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 1: that up too. It said to whom much is given,
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: much is required. Now, if you don't want the requirements,
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: then he gonna have to pull up on a given.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: But if you want the given, know that here come
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: the requirements. So one more time, if you don't want
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: the requirements, he gonna have to pull up on a given.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: Do not be the one who blocks your own blessings.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: Want more for your life and be willing to do
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: the things to accept and receive more. It's just discipline.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: It's just some more work. But if you just cut
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 1: out some of the be yes, man, man, just cut
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: out some of the happy hours, just cut out some
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: of the drinking. You can't smoke one every day though,
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 1: you can't go to all the clubs something. You're just
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 1: gonna run all the women that that's that's that's that's
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: what you're gonna do, all of them. I got news
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: for you, man. Can't be successful that way. You can't
