Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on, I sure will.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Good morning everybody you're listening to the voice, Come on,
dig me now.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
One and only. Steve Harvey got a radio show.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Ah Man, Steve Harvey got a radio show because God.
Because God is simply amazing, Because God is off the chain,
because God is over the top, because God is all
that in a bag of chips. God is amazing man.
God will take you places that you never ever thought
you would go, or.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
It's sometimes it amazes me when I'm watching people talk
about themselves and their careers and where they're at in
life and things, and they and I hear people say,
you know, always dreamed of being here. You know, I
can understand when a person says that I've always dreamed
that of something like this would happen to me. But
(00:55):
I want you to think about that for a second.
Did you really see it just like that?
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Though?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Did you really really see it just like that? Did
you really know that God was going to bring you
through all he brought you through to get you to
this place? Did you know that in spite of the
losses along the way that would crumbled the average person,
that somehow He kept you through it all and that's
(01:26):
how you got here?
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Did you think of you know? I mean you know?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
I mean, since you're so busy talking about yourself now,
have you forgotten all the times he was bringing you
through when you didn't see no way that you was
gonna get through?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Do you remember that?
Speaker 2 (01:46):
So when you sit there and you say, I dreamed
of this, this is what I always saw happening.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
I don't really think. So, I don't really think.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
If you take inventory, or real close inventory of your
life and you look back on it all, stop looking
at the moment right now, remember where you come from. See,
that's what gets me emotional sometimes, that's what makes me
tear up because when something is happening to me in
the moment, it ain't the moment. For me, it's the
(02:15):
memory of how I got there. It's the recollection of
all the things, all the nights, all the days in
that car, all the times by myself when I felt
like I wasn't gonna make it. But somehow I'm standing
somewhere and somebody passing out on the ward to me
or somebody calling my name, that's that.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Did you really think you was gonna make it? Then? So?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
So, so, since you're talking about This is what I
always dreamed. Did you really think in those moments right
there that you would even be standing here today. That's
why I try to I try to get people to understand,
you know, and and and and this.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Is kind of for young people today, what I'm about
to say.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
But then guess what I sometimes I have to remind
myself of. So I guess it's still kinder for everybody,
you know, because I work with a lot of young people,
and so many times, man, young people just don't understand
what all it takes. And I know, and if you're
a full grown adult, if you're faulty, you really understanding
(03:17):
where I'm coming from, because you know, uh, it's listen
to me, young people or anybody that don't understand this,
that you got to do some things that you don't
want to do in order to do what you want
to do.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
You have to.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Understand this principle of success or else you are not
going to become successful. I got what you want to do,
I got your ultimate goal, is this, that, and the other.
I got all of that. But in the meantime, though,
there are some necessary steps that you have to take
in order to become successful. And you cannot skip these steps.
(03:57):
You can't jump over these steps just because you want
to be rich.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Friday. I got that, I got that, everybody got that.
Speaker 2 (04:06):

it's money or success or fame or climbing the corporate
letter or this is the position or you all, that's fine,
and then please hold on to your dreams. Dreams come true.
But in the meantime, let me remind you of something
(04:26):
that you gotta do some things you don't want to
do in order to do what you want to do.
Let's say you want to be rich and famous. Let's
just say that's it for you. Now, it's a lot
of other ways of being successful. Please don't think that's
the only one. But I'm just saying, let's just say

(04:46):
way God made you rich and famous. Next Friday, Ta
dad d y'all you rich and you famous? Next Friday,
Can I share something with you? This is not going
to last for you. You know why, because you you
have not done the things necessary. You have not done
the things that you have to do in order to
(05:08):
do the things you want.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
So now you're rich and famous. How you gonna know

true right now. Man, You know, I think the best
way y'all is for me. I just use myself as
an example. I really do understand why God has given
me the life he's given me so far. I understand
the being homeless part. Now I get the not being
(06:00):

for myself.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
I've been wanting to be on TV and a little
comedian since I was nine years old. But guess what,
I didn't get there until I was twenty eight. But see,
I didn't get it then I was mad at God.
You know what I want, and I'm senter here. I
got exactly what you want, but I got this process.
I want you to go through to get here too,
because see, I'm finna take you somewhere. You don't know nothing,
(06:29):
but one day you're gonna have a radio show with
you a little stupid behind. You don't know this shit.

even know it. That's why I say every morning, Steve
Harvey got a radio show because see, I didn't see
this one coming. But see God had a plan for me.
It was in the blueprint of my life. So God said,
what I'm gonna do is, I'm gonna make your life
a little rough for you.

I'm gonna toss you up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (06:53):

you want to make, and I'm gonna make you learn
from them. I'm gonna let you be homeless for a
little while. I'm gonna let you not get into your
feel the choice until you're twenty eight. I'm gonna have
people talking about if we had only seen him when
he was younger. I ain't gonna let you get your
first con your name to your thirty eight I'm gonna
(07:13):
make you go through some things because one day I'm
gonna put a microphone in front of your mouth, and
I want you to honor me. I want you to
talk about me. I want you to tell people what
I bought you through. I want you to give people
inspirational moments where they can see that your life was
jacked up for a minute and I turned your life
around for you.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
That's God dealing with me. See.

So now I finally understand why I went through the
life I went through, so I can have something to say. See,

will happen. I'm telling you what I know can happen.
That God does make dreams come true, but sometime it

things you don't want to do in order to do
(07:55):

Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
