  Speaker 1: I show will a good morning everybody you're listening to
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: the boys, Come on dig me now, one and only
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Steve Harvey got this radio show. Man, Hi got here.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I really can't explain it. Only by the grace of God,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: that's all I can really tell you. I was talking
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: with a buddy the other day and he was telling me.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: He said, Man, he had an interesting philosophy about it.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: He said. You know, you can have dreams and visions,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: he say, but God, God will never show you what
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: all he has for you. He won't show you all
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: of it because he knows you will mess it up.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: And you know what, man, I thought about that, and wow,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: how true is that? Okay? I know that I got
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: a radio show. I didn't see it. It's just become
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: this major blessing for me. I didn't see it. But
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: if I would have seen it and known when he
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: had planned on giving it to me, I would have
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: messed it up because Number one, my first question would
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: have been to him, why I got to wait so long?
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Why don't I go down hill and start on the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: radio now? And then I be in radio and then
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: tidy see that God? But see, the thing about God
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: is God don't need your help a matter of fact,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: that he don't really want it. All he want is
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: you to love him and obey him. If you can
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: do them two things I think. I think I could
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: be wrong. I think he'd be really cool with us.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: So had I known about these blessings that he had
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: for me, I would have messed him up because I
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: would have put my thinking in the figuring process, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: that would have jacked it all up. That's the first
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: thing I asked him, why I got to wait so long?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: And then if he has shown me what I was
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: gonna have to do to get it, I would have
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: showed messed that up. Man, I ain't gonna do that.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I ain't even to do all of that. Wait a minute,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: I got to go through all of these mishaps in
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: my life, so when I get the radio show, I
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: have something to share. Man, why don't I just read
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: a couple of books and share that experience with them? Now? See,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I want you to know what you're talking about. I
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: want you to be transparent. I want people to be
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: able to identify with your struggle and apply they struggle
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: to it and see that they can get over. See.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: God never shows you all of it because he know
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: will mess it up. I wouldn't have any books, I
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: certainly please know, I would not be the host of
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: family if you can't tell you that. It is amazing man,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: how God works. And my invitation to everybody today is
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: allow God to work. You know, you can ask him
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: why all you want to. And from time to time
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I still do no good for me, But that old
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: why me, old woe is me? Lord? Thing that don't
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: really get it for me, because when I start asking
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: him why, I'm asking somebody who has a thought process
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: so high above mine that there's no way if he
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: told it to me, I wouldn't even get it. You
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: wouldn't need hunk out bright you think you are, man,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: You just ain't gonna get how and why he does
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: it his way. You're not going to understand it. But
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: he has a plan for each and every one of us.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: And if we adhere to the plan, if we submit
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: ourselves to his will and just say, okay, God, what
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you want me to do? I am telling you it
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: is the best way to live. Now. You can also
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: do it the way I did it early on. You
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: can just do what you want to do and see
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: how I go from now. And I will tell you
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: from personal experience, it's not going to go good. You know,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: my wife and I were talking the other day. As
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: she said something women, I had to write it down.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: She says, Steve, you know the funny thing about sin?
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: She says, sin casts you more than you want to
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: pay and causes you to stay longer than you want
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: to stay. I ask my word where she got them from.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: She says, some old person told it to it. She says,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: sin casts you more than you want to pay and
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: causes you to stay longer than you want to stay.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: That's the problem, man, about doing what you want to do.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Because we are all sinners. Man, all of us, all
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: of us, every last one of us are sinners. You
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: will be a sinner until you die. Now, you could
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: be saved by grace. But you're going to be a
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: sinner man. You are going to make mistakes. You are
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: going to in your life knowingly do wrong. I bet
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: you will. I don't know who you think you are.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know who you've been listening to. But get this,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: we are sinners. We were born into a world that
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: is sinful. Now it's okay, it's okay, it's our world.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: But we can make the best of it because we
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: can form a relationship with God. We can and we
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: can go to war with this thing, you know, and
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: we can win. You can actually get over. Being born
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: into this world is not an end all. That doesn't
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: mean you're doomed, nah man, because God is available to
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: give you life, and not only give you life, but
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: give it to you more abundantly. I have more of
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: an abundant life than I've ever had. If you took
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: away the finances, trust and believe, I have so many
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: things I could tell you that I'm grateful for. For
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: my wife, for my children, man, for my family, for
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: the few friends that I have, for the work that
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I do, man for the respect that some people that
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: I feel around some people from the reputation I've earned.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Now I ain't cool with everybody. I got that. I'm cool.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I ain't cool with everybody. Everybody ain't cool with me.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Everybody don't like me. Man, get past that right there.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I don't care what you do. Everybody ain't gonna like you.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Some people didn't like Jesus. What did he do? What
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: did he do wrong to anybody? Show it to me
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: where he was just out there, just messing over folks,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: and you could justify all that happened to him. Just
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: show it to me. But he knew everybody ain't gonna
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: like me. I just come to save y'all. You understand,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I got you. Ain't feeling me. You're gonna spit on me.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: You're gonna hang me up there, You're gonna pierce my side.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: You're gonna do all that to me. When you get through,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I still love you. That's a powerful statement. Man, God
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: will take care of you if you form this relationship
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: with him. He has something for you. He has a
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: plan for you that is beyond your imagine. Nation. He
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: will give you the desires of your heart. But he
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: also has some stuff in store for you that you're
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: not even asking for. That he is willing to ship
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: to an address that belongs to you. As long as
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: you stay on the right path and are trying your best,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: God to ship you the blessing anywhere. Because please know
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: He's done it to me. I'm a living witness to
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: this that God will ship you blessings and you ain't
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: gonna be perfect. But if he know your heart, man,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: if he know you trying to do better, if he
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: see you trying to change, if he see you trying
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to get it right, he understands that you're gonna stumble
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: all the way through this thing. But if he know
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: your heart and he know you trying to get it right,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and you're doing the best you can, boy, here ships

  Speaker 1: Ask the clo. Right after this, you're listening show time for,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Asked the clou The Chief Love Officers, Steve Harvey is
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: in the building, and this one is from Stella in Louisville, Kentucky.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Stella says, I'm thirty seven years years old and I've
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: been married eight years, and out of the blue, my
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: husband confessed to cheating and said he's sorry and it
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: will never happen again. I can't even think of when
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: he would have had time to cheat, and I really
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: don't understand why he confessed. I went to our pastor
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and he already knew. He agreed that some things are
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: better left unsaid. What do I do next? Do I
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: try to find out who the woman is or leave
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: well enough alone. Wow, Well, I mean, what does finding
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: out the woman do? Right? Okay? So I don't I
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: don't think you need to bring that into your world.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I'm still stuck on this food. Why he confessed that?
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: In the blue? Who told you this? Though not a
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: pastor knew. Yeah, he went to the path, but I
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: guess he fell bad. He wanted to get it off
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: his chest. So here's a good thing. Here's a good
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: thing to look at. He didn't have to tell, but
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: he felt bad enough, and he came for with you.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Obviously was something that was eating away at him, something
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: he regretted doing it. So there's a good side. It
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: ain't like you busted him. And then he confessed. He
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: walked in and told So I think that's okay. So
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: you can try to go back to like it never happened,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: because you don't know who it is and he why
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: you tell it? I don't know why you wouldn't have
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: told you you wouldn't have eaten away at you, you
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: know if that happen. But you're saying, as a man,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: you would never have confessed to it, only if you
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: got caught your wife. Even then Yeah, that's exactly what
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: when you catch me, they ain't be goun to be
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: no confession. What can you say you caught in the ass.

• 15:57
  Speaker 1: things in my life that I feel horrible about. Right,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I've done some things in my life. The moment I
• 16:02

• 16:04
  Speaker 1: some things that I went to do it no, and

• 29:53
  Speaker 1: are expected to testify against him. Kelly has been incarcerated
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: in Chicago since July of twenty nineteen, but that federal
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: case involves different charges, including child pornography and obstruction of justice.

• 31:18
  Speaker 1: good news from three guys named Steve, there's Stevie, there's Steven,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: and there's Stefan Wilson. They do almost everything together, Steve,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: including graduating college at the same time. The triplets are
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: graduating from Louisiana's Grambling State University and they all majored
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: in biology with plans to become doctors. The trio has
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: been overcoming challenges since being born premature, even schools suggesting
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: and rolling the boys in special education courses. And they said,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: if it wasn't for my mother, she's the one that said, note,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: those boys got talent. When we graduated high school, we
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: proved them wrong. Now we're getting ready to walk and
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: prove them wrong, Stefan said. Ultimately, the Wilson Triplet's biggest
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: goal is to be role models for their community and
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: in the medical field. After all representation matters. Stevie says, congratulations.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: We gotta say it from our Steve Harvey to you guys.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Will Ye that's big man, Steve cracking that barrier. Baby,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: but three Steves. Yeah, Stevie Wonder and I both thank you. Yes,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: congratulations to them. That is wonderful. And Stevie, Stephen and Stefan, Yeah,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: they had a mom that believed in them. You know.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: That's it, right, that's it. M Yeah, black models, love
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: black parenting and just you know, trying to make our
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: kids win and be productive. It's a great story. We need.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: I love that their biggest goal is to be role
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: models in their community and representation is important to them.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: So congratulations again and thank you mom for a job
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: well done. Yeah all right, yeah, it is time for
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: today's headlines. Ladies and gentlemen, miss and trip, thank you
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: very much. Like going on. Closing arguments are expected to
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: begin later on this morning. In Minneapolis and the Derek
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Chauvin George Floyd murder trial. The defense presented only a
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: few witnesses. One of them was a guy named doctor
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: David Fowler. Fowler was born in Zimbabwe when it was
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Rhodesia and was educated in South Africa during Apartheit, and
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: he was their main medical witness. Then George Chauvin himself
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: officially refused to testify. Of course, predictably, the city of
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Minneapolis and some other municipalities around the country have been
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: put on alert, with the National Guard called up. Meanwhile,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: only a few miles away, demonstrations continue in the community
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: of Brooklyn Center over the killing of young Dante Wright,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: again by a white cop, this time of twenty six
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: year veteran, who claims she thought she was tasing him.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: California Democratic Congressman Vaccine Waters came out to support the
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: community over the weekend. We have to persist then, calling
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: for justice. We have to let people know that we're
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: not going to be satisfied unless we get justice in
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: these patients. But for people who still don't get an attorney.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: Benjamin Crump lays it out on ABC this week. She
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: claims that she was trying to pull the taser, and
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: even though you have the gun on the dominant side
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: of the taser on the non dominant side, and the
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: fact that the gun weighs two and a half pounds
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: and the taser weighs eight ounces, but even tasing him,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: it's still an excessive use of force. Whether it's George
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Floyd with a twenty dollars allegation of a counterfeit bill
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: that should have been a ticket, and certainly this pretext
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: your stop for an allege expired tag should have been
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: a ticket. And we see when it's our white brothers
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: and as sisters, they give them the benefit of the doubt.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: And the benefit of professional of them. And when it
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: says black people, we can't even get the benefit of humanity,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: we will see. That's Ben Crump and Chicago. A Cook
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: County assistant DA placed on administrative lead because the state's attorney,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Kim Fox, says he failed to fully present the facts
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: during a bond hearing last month in the case of
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: thirteen year old Adam Toledo. State Attorney Fox says the
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: ADA failed to mension that the teenager was unarmed when
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: a Chicago police officer shot and killed him. Assistant States
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Attorney James Murphy told the judge that Toledo had a
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: gun and that he was still holding it when officers
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Stillman told him to turn around and drop it. Bodycam
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: video shows the seventh grader dropping the gun and facing
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: the officer with both hands up and empty. Officer Eric
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Stillman is on an administrative leave. A white teenager who
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: police in Indiapolis State murdered eight people at the FedEx
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: warehouse last week before taking his own life, identified his
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: nineteen year old former FedEx employee, Brandon Scott Hall, who
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: was actually interviewed by the FBI last year after his
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: parents told him he might try to commit suicide. Four
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: of his victims were from the Sikh community. Now back
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening show, all right, Steve.

• 37:47
  Speaker 1: I want you to know that. I want you to
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: see what it feels like to walk past all the
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: police and you don't have to tighten up. I want
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: black men to know what it feels like to be
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: in a car and see policemen and not tighten up. Now,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: at first, you're gonna tighten up because it's innately in us,
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Like I automatically when I see police cars, I get it,

  Speaker 1: thank you. Coming up at thirty four minutes after the hour,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: closing arguments today at the Derek Schauvin trial. We'll talk
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: about it right after this. You're listening to the Stave
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Harvey Morning Show. All right, what's going on now? Here?
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: We go closing arguments in the Derek Chauvin murder trial
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: our schedule for today, following nearly three weeks of witness testimony.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: According to AP News, today, the prosecutors will draw on
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: expert testimony, the video, and other evidence to explain how
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: White officer Derek Chauvin's action on May twenty fifth, when
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: he pinned George Floyd's neck to the pavement with his
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: knee for nearly nine and a half minutes, were quote
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: a substantial cause of Floyd's death. That's the prosecutor's job,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: and they'll highlight testimony from top Minneapolis police officers and
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: officials and outside use of force experts that an objectively
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: reasonable officer would not have used that kind of force. Meanwhile,
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: on the defense side, defense attorney Eric Nelson will try
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: to persuade jurors that elements of testimony he elicited from
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: prosecution witnesses and his own witnesses add up to reasonable
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: doubt over what caused Floyd's death and whether Chauvin is responsible.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: So those are the two opposing sides there was. I
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: have one question to be in closing for anybody saying
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: that they don't think that they're trying to lay reasonable
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: doubt that this man's knee on this man's neck was
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: not the cause of his death. Let me ask anybody
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: who saw the video, do you think that that man
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: that you saw in the video in the store, do
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: you think that nine minutes and forty six seconds later,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: based on what you saw in the store, did he
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: look like he was about to die? No? You mean
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: prior to yeah, as saying yeah, yeah, right, What what
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: did this man look like in the store that would
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: make you think nine minutes, if everything had been just
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: left with view got in this car, that nine minutes
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: and forty six seconds later, he'll be dead. So how
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: are you gonna try to tell me that his knee
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: on his neck was not the cause of his death
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: when if he had never put his knee on his neck,
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: this man probably thousands put thousands will still be living. Well,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: you cause the death. Yeah, they tried everything. Exhausted. I
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: can't breathe, drugs. I'm gonna tell you. Do you know
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: the number one cause of death in this country not
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: breathe disease? Yeah, Now, when you stopped breathing, Oh, that's
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: the number one cause. Once you quit breathing, IM about
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: assure you, yeah, that's it. You're saying, Yeah, people can't
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: beat canceled people didn't beat people didn't beat dementia. People
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: didn't beat long disease. People can beat heart disease. You
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: can't beat not breathing. Yeah, for that long anyway, I
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: just you know, and we all saw it. We all
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: saw it on the tape, So I mean, yeah, it is.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: I don't mean to cut you off. Go ahead, finnish
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: your statement. No, no, no, go ahead, you can finish.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, we all saw on the tape. We
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: just hold it. You can go ahead. Yeah, I was
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: just saying, this is it's also about racism and the
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: prosecution here going to bring that up too. It's part
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: of that. And it's just with the jury, with them deliberating.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: This is just common sense. Now, you get in this
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: room and you see this man had his knee on
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: this man's neck for nine and a half minutes and
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: he died as a result of that period period. That's
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: the end of this. You know, his attorney though he
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: did it. Yeah, you're right, he did. His attorney for
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: the tape. Yeah, this country has a thing that says
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: you're innocent into proving guilt, and into proving guilty, it
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: has to be beyond the shadow of a doubt. So
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: all the defense's job is is to show reasonable reason,
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: abut make you wonder about anything. So they whole defense
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: is not that he didn't kill them, but maybe he
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: died from something else from maybe if he hadn't had
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Fenton al maybe if it's right here, No, no, no, man, Yeah,
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: why didn't he take the stand? Explain your story? Explain
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: what wrong? Yeah, he played but he yea yeah, Now
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: carbon monoxide got something to do with all. Well, that's
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, all right, we'll be watching, for sure,
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: we'll be watching. We're gonna switch gears um and coming

  Speaker 1: Gentlemen's time for the Strawberry Letter with my good friend
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: Shirley Strasbery. All right, thank you, junior. Subject, I don't
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: want your stepdaddy. Dear Stephen, Shirley, I need your help.
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: My husband's mother is separated from her husband and she's
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: staying with us temporarily while she works out her marital issues. Meanwhile,
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: she's been up late at night entertaining a younger man.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: My husband has seen it with his own eyes, but
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: he doesn't know how to confront her about it. My
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: husband said, we need to focus on getting her back
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: with her husband so she can leave our home. He's
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: asked me to help out by talking to his mom's husband,
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: which is his stepdad. He doesn't have a good relationship
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: with the stepdad because he is a whore. He slept
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: with two of my mother in law's friends before they met,
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: and she knew that and still married him. Anyway. They
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: are separated now because my mother in law came home
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: one day and another woman was sitting in the kitchen
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: with him smoking a cigarette in her house. He's so
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: foul and we wish she'd divorced him, especially since she's
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: already started dating again. Yeah, the goal was to get
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: her out of my house, so I agreed to talk
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: to a stepdad. I went to their house and I
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: took my eleven year old daughter because he has said
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: a few inappropriate things to me before. He offered me
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: a drink and I declined. He told me he's happier
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: without my mother in law there and he wants a divorce.
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: I reminded him that it is her house and he
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: needs to move out. He got upset with me and
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: put me out. Next thing I know, he told my
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: husband that I came over there ready to do a
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: lot more than talk. My husband had the audacity to
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: ask me to tell him exactly what happened, as if
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: he believed his stepdaddy. I'm furious at my husband. This
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: had nothing to do with me, and my husband has
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: put me in the middle of it. What to do?
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: Please help? Well, first of all, you let your husband
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: put you in the middle of it, and this is
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: a whole mess right here. Now. I know your gut.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: I know your gut told you to stay out of
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: it when your husband first asked you. But the most
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: urgent thing was to get your mother in law out
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: of your house. So you went along. You agreed to
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: talk to your stepdaddy, and stepdaddy is the one who
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: needs to go. Clearly, he's the culprit in all of this.
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: He doesn't get along with anyone. He doesn't get along
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: with his wife, his stepson, and he doesn't get along
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: with you. He puts you and your daughter out he's
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: the one who had the woman in the house, so okay,
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: it's just disrespectful smoking a cigarette. Talking to step daddy
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: didn't work, so now it's time to talk to his mom,
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: his son, her son. Your husband is afraid to confront her,
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: and you guys got to talk to him. Though, fear
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: or not, you guys still have to talk to him.
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: I would say, don't talk to her about entertaining the
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: younger man because she'll only get defensive. Okay, talk to
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: her about going back to her own house. That he
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: should be the one leaving, not her. Why should she
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: allow him to make her leave her own home. You
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: guys got to also throw in the fact that you
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: have a young and impressionable daughter, her granddaughter, that doesn't
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: need to be seeing her grandmother with another man. This
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: is crazy. These are all the reasons her stepdaddy or
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: his stepdaddy needs to go and mother in law needs
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: to file for a divorce from this clown and move on.
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: But first, of course, she needs to move out of
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: your house, because next is going to start affecting your
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: marriage if it hasn't already. I mean, your husband is
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: questioning you right now about what happened with his stepdad.
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: That's not a good look. Does he believe his step Yeah?
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: You don't want these problems, You really really don't. So
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: you guys gotta seriously set her down and have a
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: serious conversation with her. Steve, this is crazy, Yeah it is.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Now let me show you why. I think. The whole
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: letter just really explains itself to me. I don't know
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: why she even wrote us, but I do understand why
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: she wrote us. But let me help put just be
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: able to solve her own problem. They're not getting back together.
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: Let's just understand that. Okay, they're not getting back together,
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: and they don't want to. She's staying with y'all temporarily
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: in you and your husband's house. Your mother his mother
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: that's separated from her husband, and now she's downstairs late
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: at night entertaining a younger man. Like going on. She
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: had moved out and got busy at y'all's house. Okay,
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: your husband has seen it with his own eyes, but
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: he don't know how to go to his mom about it.
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: I was thinking right away, man, he's gotta mess him
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: up because he won't hearing her daddy back together. But
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: now he don't. My husband says that they need to
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: focus on getting her back with her husband so he
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: can leave our home. But that's really not the best move,
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: I don't think, and I don't think that's gonna happen
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: because which is his stepdad, and he wants his mom
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: to go back to, but he don't have a good
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: relationship with his stepdad. I want y'all to keep that
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: information for later. He don't have a good relationship with
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: his stepdad, who is a whore because he is a whore.
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: It says it in the letter. It does. He is
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: a whore. He slept with two of y'all's mother law
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: friend before he before they met, and she knew that
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: and still married. And anyway, now they separated because your
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: mother in law came home one day and there was
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: another woman sitting in the kitchen with him smoking a
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: cigarette in her house. Yeah, come over here and chill out.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: Who do that? Let's smoke over him? So right there,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: the disrespect is blatant. So while we talk and I'll
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: explain the rest when we come back. He's so foul
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: we wish to shot. We'll let part two of your
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hours subject,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: I don't want your step daddy, and we'll get back
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: into it right after this. You're listening, all right, Come on, Steve,
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: let's recap today's strawberry letter, subject I don't want your
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: step daddy. My damn husband's mom then moved in with y'all.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: They have an argument with her husband, y'all, calling mantle issues. Meanwhile,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: she been entertaining the younger man at the house said nothing,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: which means she don't want her husband no more because
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: she left the house. Now she at your house clowning. Okay,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: on top of all that, your husband has seen it
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: with his own eyes, but he don't know how to
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: approach his mama because that's his mama. And he can't
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: talk to his mom's husband because that's his stepdad, and
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: they don't have a good relationship because he is a whore.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: This is what your letter say. I've never called a
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: man that in my life, so I'm enjoying it in
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: his letter. Your stepdaddy is a whore. He has slept
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: with two of your mama's friends for they met, and
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: she married him anyway. Now, the reason they separated because
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: mother in law came home and saw him in the
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: kitchen with another woman in her house smoking a cigarette,
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: and the lady says, he's so far we wish she
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: did she divorce him, especially since she's already started dating again. Damn,
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: what is the letter? Fall y'all never want y'all want
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: her to divorce him because he's a whore and she's
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: already started dating. But y'all stupid husband talking about we
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: need to get them back together so they can go
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: their home. Why would you want your mama to go
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: back to the whore? Okay, and your mama just started
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: dating at your house, so the goal was to get
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: out of y'all's house. So then you agreed to go
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: over there and talk to the step dad and you
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: took your eleven year old daughter because he has said
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: a few inappropriate things to you before, because you didn't
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: say that to your husband, because you're trying to keep
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: do this. He offered me a drink. I decline. He
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: told me he was happier without my mother in law
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: there and he wants to do bs. Well, if it's
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: if it's the wife's house, why did she have to
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: leave you put his ass out? It's her house now
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: you know, took the eleven year old daughter over there
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: just in case. He offered you a drink and decline.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: He told you he's happier without the mother in law.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: He wants your I reminded him that it is her
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: house and he needs to move out. He got upset
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: but you and put you out. Then he told your
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: husband you came over there ready to do more than talk.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: My husband had to dance it and ask me to
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: tell him exactly what happened. How about I start when
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: I took eleven year old baby over there? How about
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: that I took the eleven year old baby over there
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: to do more than talk? Are you kidding me? The
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: horror has to be put out of the house. That's
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: the fact he I got because it just it just
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: so much. The man is a horror. I've never said
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: that to another man. You're a horror. You're a horror

• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: my husband. This has nothing to do with me, and
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: my husband has put me in the middle of it.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: What to do? Please, fell First of all, you need
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: to put this in your husband's lap, because it's his
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: Mama that's downstairs with the younger man, and it's his
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: daddy in law. Now, the fact that he don't get

  Speaker 1: is a liar too. So now he gonna try to

• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: what's going on? Now? Here? We go? Closing arguments in
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: the Derek Chauvin murder trial. Our schedule for today, following
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: nearly three weeks of witness testimony of acording to AP News, today,
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: the prosecutors will draw on expert testimony, the video, and
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: other evidence to explain how white officer Derek Chauvin's actions
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: on May twenty fifth, when he pinned George Floyd's neck
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: to the pavement with his knee for nearly nine and
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: a half minutes, were quote a substantial cause of Floyd's death.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: That's the prosecutor's job, and they'll highlight testimony from top
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: Minneapolis police officers and officials and outside use of force
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: experts that an objectively reasonable officer would not have used
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: that kind of force. Meanwhile, on the defense side, defense
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 1: attorney Eric Nelson will try to persuade jurors that elements
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: of testimony he elicited from prosecution witnesses and his own
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 1: witnesses add up to reasonable doubt over what caused Floyd's
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: death and whether Chauvin is responsible So those are the
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: two opposing sides there was. I have one question to
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: be inclosing for anybody to say that they don't think
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: that they're trying to lay reasonable doubt that this man's
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: knee on this man's neck was not the cause of
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: his death. Let me ask anybody who saw the video,
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: do you think that that man that you saw in
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: the video in the store, do you think that nine
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: minutes and forty six seconds later, based on what you
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: saw on the store, did he look like he was
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: about to die? No? You mean prior to yeah saying yeah, yeah, right?
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: What what did this man look like in the store
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: that would make you think in nine minutes, if everything
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: happened just left with if you got in this car,
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: that nine minutes and forty six seconds later, he'll be dead.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 1: So how are you gonna try to tell me that
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 1: his knee on his neck was not the cause of
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: his when if he had never put his knee on
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: his neck, this man, probably thousand PUDs will still be living. Well,
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: you caused the death. Yeah, they tried everything. Exhausted, I
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: can't breathe. Drugs, I'm gonna tell you, do you know
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: the number one cause of death in this country. Not
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: breathe disease. Yeah, no, when you stopped breathing. Oh that's
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: the number one calls once you quit breathing. I'm about
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: assure you. Yeah, that's it. Yeah. People don't beat cancer.
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: People didn't beat people didn't beat dementia. People didn't beat
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: long disease. People can beat heart disease. You can't beat
• 1:19:50

• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: to watch Empire, but I ain't got time. He said,
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: I ain't got time to watch Empire because I'm out
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: here trying to build an empire for my wife and
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: my kids and and and that, and that message kind
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: of stuck with me because you know, I look back.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: You know, you know, we have movie conversations all the time,
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: and where I could never really participate in the movie conversations.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: And it's kind of crazy, man, because I ain't seen nothing.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: And always say and I was jokingly, I always saying, hey, y'all,
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: I was I was just hustling that that period of time,
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: I had my head down and I was hustling, but
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: I was thinking about it in terms of currently even today,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: I'm not able to watch a lot and I know
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: a lot of people aren't. But I want you to
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: think about this. Listen, you all to get to where
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: you want to get to in life, everybody, it's gonna
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: take and all out of salt. You're really gonna have
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: to pour your heart and soul to a thing in
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: order for it to come true. Now, this a thing
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: can be any number of things. It can be your dreams,
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: your life be something. But you all have to have
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: a thing. Everybody has to have something that they aspire to.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: I mean the scripture say, as a man without a
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: dream or visions, your perish. Do you know what happens
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: to a lot of people. Man, when they retire, they
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 1: retire their dreams and their hopes because they've accomplished it.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: My dream was to retire, and then when they retire,
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 1: they've set nothing out in front of them, and they
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: slowly fade away. I know of some people who've retired
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: who have faded and just rusted away. Now I'm seeing
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: some people retire and find new things to be active in,
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 1: things that move them and make them, that wake them
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: up in the morning. You know. They volunteer work, they
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: get involved with some type of philanthropic if it's something.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: But you gotta have a thing. Everybody has to have one.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: I don't care where you are, I'm telling you, man,
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: you gotta start looking at this thing, right You gotta
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: stop looking at everybody building their life, and you gotta
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: put that focus on building your own life. That's why,
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: like haters don't really shake me like they used to.
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: They really don't. I used to be bothered when social
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 1: media first came out. Oh man, what they say? So
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: why they say that about me? I don't care no more.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: I truly can tell you. They don't move the needle
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: in my life. You know why, because they don't move
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: the needle in their life. Anybody that has the time
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: to sit around and troll the internet talking about everybody
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: else ain't taking care of themselves. When you got a
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: person who I got this one person who follows me
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: and got something negative to say about everything I do?
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: Why are you following me? They say, why don't you
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: block him? Oh no, no, no, no, I'm not blocking
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: me because I gotta provide this dude with something to do.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 1: I've tried to look him up, but he gotta You know,
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 1: he got a private page because he's a coward, you know,
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: because he want to say all this stuff about me,
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: but he don't make himself available. But I feel sorry
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: for the brother too, because he inflicts. He inputs so
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: much of his time into probably not only me, but
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: a host of other people, that he ain't having time
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: to build himself up. He's so busy trying to tear
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: me down. You got haters in your life, that's trying
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: to tear you down when they could put that effort
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: into building themselves up. I'm under attack all the time
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: by somebody trying to tear me down, but they could
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 1: take that same effort and build their self up. It's
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: just really sad, man, how some people spend their time.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: So I'm employing all of the Steve Harvey Show listening.
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 1: Get yourself a thing, a thing that you are willing
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: and wanting to pour your heart and soul into your efforts,
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 1: and make that a goal of yours, because I'm telling
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: you right now, everything that is now is going to change.
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 1: COVID has proven that the work world is changing, Your
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: job is changing. The predicaments in this world have changed.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: Get ready because some of this stuff ain't going back
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: to normal. So if I were you, I would develop
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: myself a thing and pour my heart and soul and
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: being into that thing, and so do it so much
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: where you ain't got time to watch empire because you're
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: busy trying to build your own. Those are my closing remarks.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: I'm saying that in the hope that it lights a
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: candle in you. That's the only reason I said it.
• 1:26:56
