Speaker 4 (01:55):
Come come out?

Speaker 2 (01:59):
You think that, Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody.
You are listening to the voice. Come on now, digney
one of only Steve Harvey got what radio show man?
What you're doing with it? Trying to do the very
very best I can with it?

Speaker 1 (02:19):
I really am.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
You know, I get tired sometimes on my journey. I'm
not gonna kid you. Trying to make something about yourself
is a task. If you want to attempt to do something,
and and understand going in that that if the thing

(02:41):
you're trying to do is to improve yourself, to better
your position, to better your relationship, your family, anything, you're
trying to be a better you. You're trying to make
more money, you're trying to get it together, you're trying
to change if any of those things are in your

(03:03):
hopes and dreams, know this right here you are about
to face some challenges. But you might as well go
ahead anyway and face those challenges, because if you don't,
you have a whole other set of challenges to face.
You know, It's an amazing thing, man, how people sit

(03:25):
around and they watch other people strike out to become successful.
They sit in the stands watching these people play out
these games, and they and they and they criticize, They boo,
they laugh at their efforts and everything, and they talk
about the failuse. He missed that game when he shop boy,
he sunk man, he did this. He ain't worth that.

(03:48):
I hear people who sit in stands who criticize people
who are out there on the playing field. Now, when
you're on the plane, feel you have a set of
challenges in front of you. You're going to be open
to criticism. You're going to be open to ridicule. You're

(04:09):
going to be talked about when you don't know the
people who are talking about you. Now, here's the upside
to being the player on the field that's facing all
the challenges, to criticisms, the laughing, the joke, to being
talked about.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
He has something going for him.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
This person, boy, woman, child, girl, man has an opportunity
to win. They have an opportunity to win. And in
the game of life, just because you lose one of
the games, or you lose one of the matches, it

(04:53):
don't mean you've lost. You don't get put out. You
keep playing and when you here's the upside. You have
the opportunity to win. But guess what, You're gonna win
some of the matches. You're gonna win some of the points.
You're gonna make some of the dunks. You're gonna hit
some of them over the wall. You're gonna hit some
out the park. You're gonna score some goals. You will

(05:17):
if you're playing the game. Here's the problem with the
people who don't face criticism, who nobody boos or cheers for,
who sits in the stands and knows neither victory nor defeat.
Those people, without realizing it, are facing a set of

(05:40):
challenges also. And the challenges they're facing is how I'm
gonna live with myself? What I'm gonna do? Now? What
direction am I going in? Where am I gonna live?
Wonder what job will hire me? Wonder if I can

(06:05):
get paid for criticize?

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Ah, woe is me?

Speaker 2 (06:12):
I can't find the purpose in my life. And man,
I'm just waking up in a state of confusion.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I don't know what to do.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
Now, let me ask you something, which one of them
set the challenges you'd rather be faced with? Because if
I'm on the flow playing, if I'm on the field playing,
if I'm out on the court playing, then guess what
I got a chance at winning? But guess what I'm
doing every day while I'm playing. I'm strategizing. I'm waking

(06:41):
up with a purpose. I'm waking up trying to come
up with another angle. I'm in pursuit of a goal
every single day. Versus the people in the stands who
know neither victory nor defeat. Get in the game, face

(07:06):
the challenges. Better yourself, better your wife, better your children,
better your condition, better your employment status, better your job,
better your career. Take a shot. Come on, man, what
you waiting on? Because the alternative is to watch other
people play the game?

Speaker 1 (07:23):
You know what I just do? Sometimes Sometimes I just
I get.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
Forbes magazine or Money magazine, or sometimes I still grab
a copy of the rob Report.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
I just flip through it just to see. I used
to get this book called Unique Homes.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Unique Homes is a magazine that just has a lot
of extravagant houses that's on sale across.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
The country, across the world. I used to flip through. Man,
let me just see, man, what the people that's playing
the game out there doing.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Stop watching other people become successful when you could very
easily be you if you make the decision. But when
you make the decision to become successful, get ready for
a series of challenges. I think it's more difficult not
to accept the challenge.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
I think it's for me.

Speaker 6 (08:13):
This is just for me.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
It may not be the case for you.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
For me, I think it's far more difficult to wake
up and just see how life gonna go today, because man,
it could just deal you any kind of hand today.
You understand, I don't like you know spades. Let's talk
a card game for example, the game of spades. Really, man,
it ain't a whole lot you can do if you
don't get no spades. Really, it's a little couple of

(08:38):
little strategies you're gonna do. But you can have all
this age, king, queen, diamond all you want. But man,
you ain't got no spades. They cutting them. You're in trouble.
Be it with different game. You can create what's in
your hand. You got dealt a hand too, But you
can create a hand you can call a trump. You
can make diamonds your space. You can make hard to

(09:01):
clubs your spades. That's what I'm saying. What you can
do something with it. It's a different game, man. You
can strategize. I would rather have a say so in
my life than to wake up every day and just
see how it's going. I think it's more difficult to
not accept the challenge to be something than it is
to accept the challenge to be something. I think it's
more difficult to sit around and not be nothing. I

(09:24):
think it's harder to watch everybody life going somewhere but mine.
I think it would be very difficult for me to
sit here and hear them talking about other people that
never mentioned my name.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
That would be difficult for me.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
To see everybody rise and getting promotions accept me, that
would be difficult for me. It may not be for you,
but for me it would be quite challenging. I would
rather accept the challenge of making something out of my
life than to sit there and criticize those and then
watch and see how my life just may go Okay,
just a thought.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Today you're listening to gentlemen.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
You know what?

Speaker 2 (10:01):
He did it again another day, another dollar, another opportunity,
another hollow, another shot, another reason.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Come on, man, I mean, what else you need?

Speaker 2 (10:11):
I did myself a favorite this morning because I didn't
sleep well last night, because I had a little anxiety
going on, got a little problem that I was just
worrying about a little bit too much. I got up
this morning and I cut on YouTube and I went
to Joel Oldstein. I said, God, I need something. He
sent me to a message call know something about anxiety,

(10:33):
and anyway, I played it. And anxiety comes from my
inability to turn it over to God. Because when I'm
worried about something I have no control over, that's usually
what makes you anxious. Your anxiety comes from worrying about
the future or the past, which you have neither.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
Control over, none of them.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
And I know that.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
But every now and then you got to be reminded.
So I had to be re talked the lesson today.
So I'm starting to get all right out and turn
it over to God. It's in his hands. He ain't
never let me down before, so it must mean he's
somewhere fixing something else up. And then my wife said,
you have to pay attention to your own advice. When
the door closes, don't stand there beating on the door.

(11:13):
Walk up the hall. It's some more dogs. I'm in
the hallway, y'all heading on up and look at God,
Sharlie Strawberry Collin for real, Mississippi Monica Junior and the
legend of nephew Tommy Jr.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
What's on your mind today?

Speaker 4 (11:27):
Man?

Speaker 1 (11:28):
Well, that's that's interesting. Man, gonna walk up the hall.

Speaker 7 (11:31):
But you know, when you when you when you fail
at something, what's the encouragement you have to give to
yourself when you fail? Everybody, everybody don't want to see
you win. But you know you don't know who to
turn to at your at your position. So who what
do you say when you feel.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Turn to the only person I turn to when it
go wrong? For me, I talk talk to my wife
because she's my teammate. She's solid, she'd improved that over
the years. And then I gotta go to God. So,
you know, but failure, for me, I've learned about failure
that it's part of the process. And the reason I
fail is because I attempt. You know, people who don't fail.

(12:08):
Ain't making no attempts, and so I'm always attempting. So
I have a higher degree of potential failure. But then
I also have a higher degree of success because the
more things I tempt, the more things has the possibility
of working out. A lot of people asking God for blessings,
but you ain't giving God nothing to bless You can't

(12:29):
ask God to change your life, and you ain't out
here trying to change it. You ain't taking a meeting,
you ain't feeling out application, you ain't doing no.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Interviews, but you studyed well God that God bless me.

Speaker 5 (12:40):
What you doing?

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Dog?

Speaker 2 (12:43):
You can't expect a new job to walk up to
your door. I've never seen the job walk up to
your door.

Speaker 5 (12:49):
I'm a job.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I ain't never seen nobody just mail you a check
for no reason. Man, just here. Even if you hit
the lotto, you gotta go down there play it, that's right.

Speaker 5 (13:05):
Yeah, I can't win if you don't play.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
You know, And just as humans, it's tough sometimes because
you know, the high you get up on the mountain, Manda,
the hard it is to breathe up there.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
It's sting air up there. But you know, you just
got it. I've been up here, I've been practicing a
long time, so I just have to have to go

Speaker 1 (56:21):
It could be yours. Buckle up and hold on tight.
We got it for you. Here it is Strawberry letter.

Speaker 3 (56:26):
Thank you, nephew. Subject She's caring for my baby and
my husband. Dear Stephen Shirley. My boyfriend and I have
an eight month old daughter. When I got pregnant, he
said he didn't want to drink or smoke around the baby,
so he'd go out with his friends to do that.
Now I know it was an excuse to do whatever
he wanted to do out in the street. He could

(56:46):
never remember where he had been or what he did
whenever I asked him. I got so irritated that I
started checking his phone. I saw a text between him
and someone with the initials TK, and TK sent a
picture sure of her backside in a bikini. I could
not see her face, but she looked like she was
older by those love handles hanging off of her. My

(57:08):
boyfriend sent back a smiling emoji with hearts around it.
He told TK to meet him wearing that bikini and
he sent her his address. He sent her an address.
I googled the address and it was a house about
two miles from ours. There were no more texts after that.
Then I checked his emails and I saw that he

(57:28):
had a new phone delivered to his job. My Spidey
senses led me to believe that he got the phone
so TK can text him and send him pictures. I
had enough proof to confront him. He said that TK
is his mom's friend. That baby sits our daughter. I
call her Miss Tammy, and I never knew her last name.

(57:50):
My husband said he smokes with TK and he sees
her out a lot. I told him I'd done a
thorough investigation, so I know he's lying. I called him
a nasty pig for having sex with a lady that's
forty years older than him. He laughed in my face.
Miss Tammy will no longer keep my child, but she

(58:11):
can have my man. I plan to move out, and
all he can say is that it's not what you think,
It's not what I think. What else could it be?
Stephen Shirley, Do I need to know? Do I need
to go and talk to Miss Tammy?

Speaker 1 (58:26):
Well?

Speaker 5 (58:26):
I don't think at this point, Miss Tammy, talking to
her is what you want.

Speaker 3 (58:30):
You said, you have your proof, you know what's going on,
and you know this is an interesting letter because you
got right to the point. You've already decided what you're
going to do about it, So I'll get right to
the point. I think you should trust what you feel,
trust your instincts. You knew something wasn't right with him,

(58:50):
so your intuition is not wrong in this. He gets
complete amnesia when he goes out and you ask him
about it when he comes back. No, he knows exactly
what he's doing, and like you said, he wanted to
go out so he could do whatever he wanted to do.
He didn't have any intentions of telling you. He didn't
know you were going to do your investigation. But you
did your own investigation and found pictures of, you say,

(59:13):
an older woman in a bikini. You say she's older
because she has love handles. You saw the text messages
with him asking her to meet him with that same
bikini on, and when you asked him about it, he
laughed in your face. So it's pretty clear that something
is again going on between these two. He lied to
you about it, of course, I'm really sorry that you

(59:34):
had to go through this, especially with a new baby,
and all I know you're hurt, but you will see
better days because this too shall pass.

Speaker 5 (59:41):
You got to trust and believe that.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
And finally, he's your husband, so if you guys do divorce,
you can get child support from him.

Speaker 5 (59:49):
Steve. Wow, Oh it is your boyfriend. This is your boyfriend.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Husband.

Speaker 2 (59:57):
Well, she says she's caring for my baby and my husband,
and then the letter says, did Steven Shirley my boyfriend
and I have So that was probably just whoever makes
the title for the letters, you know, yeah, making it
most juicy so we could get y'all and listen. Either way,
it's the same damn problem, eight month old daughter. And

(01:00:20):
he went out, you know this letter. I don't really don't.
I don't know where to go with this. I really
really don't. You know, you got you started checking his phone.
He would go out, say he didn't want to smoke
and drink around the baby, so that meant he could
go wherever he wanted to go. And so you know,
you got irritated and you start checking his phone. Then
you saw some text between him and somebody with the

(01:00:42):
initials t K. And she has sent a picture of
her backside in a bikini. I could see I could
not see her face, but she looked like she was
older by those love handles. Now, you can have love
handles at twenty, so don't even don't don't put that
on old people. That starts early. Now, I hit her

(01:01:08):
and the love hangles was hanging off her body. And
now that's a little different. Now, you know, when they hanging,
that means they go out and they go down.

Speaker 5 (01:01:17):
How do you know all of this stuff?

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
Well, if they hang it, you know, you know, like
it's like any other body partner. But if they hanging, no.

Speaker 1 (01:01:30):
That's a difference, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:01:34):
But there's no mention of that in this letter.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
I'm just I'm just using other examples, well, I know,
to try to make the letter more interesting, because I'm
really not interested in this letter.

Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
I don't really You're.

Speaker 5 (01:01:47):
Doing a great job anyway.

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
My boyfriend sent back a smile and emoji in hearts around.
He told t K to meet him wearing that bikini,
and he sent her an address I Google address and
it was a house about two miles from hour. Wasn't
no more text after that, so I checked his emails,
and I saw that he had a new phone delivered.

Speaker 5 (01:02:06):
To his job.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
My Spidey senses told me to believe that he got
the bone so TK can text him and send him pictures.
I had enough proof to confront him. He said, TK
is his mama's friend. That baby since our daughter, I
call him miss Tammy, and I never knew her last name.
My husband said he smokes with TK and see her

(01:02:31):
out a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:02:31):
How old is she? Hang on, hang on, Mama's friend.

Speaker 3 (01:02:36):
Well, have part two of your Strawberry letter response coming
up at twenty three minutes after the hour. The subject
of today's letter she's caring for my baby and my husband.
We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening
Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
Hey, look, you can't let the urge to sing your
favorite songs while you're driving distract you from that truck
drifting toward your lane or that lane splitting biker creeping
up beside you. Fortunately, every Hondai offers advanced safety features
that can alert you to potential dangers around you.

Speaker 6 (01:03:12):
That's right, because Hendai is always working to ensure the
road doesn't get you. Hondai vehicles have won over one
hundred and twenty IIHS Top Safety Awards from two thousand
and six to twenty twenty four as of December twenty
twenty four.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
All right, Steve, here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:03:27):
Let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject she's caring for
my baby and my husband.

Speaker 1 (01:03:33):
It's a man and a woman. Their boyfriend girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
They got an eight month old, and he used to
say I don't never want to be around her, smoker
and stuff. She used to leave the house. She found
out he was leaving the house for other things, so
she started checking his phone. Found a picture by somebody
named TK. This woman had sent him a picture of
her behind in a bikini. Couldn't see her face, which
she judged me that the woman is older because she
has love handles and they hang it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
Okay, that's fair. Then the boyfriend sent back.

Speaker 2 (01:04:02):
A smiling emoji in harts and told t K to
meet him at this house and sent her address.

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
She googled.

Speaker 2 (01:04:09):
The house was a couple miles away, so there was
no more texts after that. And then she started checking
these emails and saw he had a new phone delivered
to his job. She assumed that her spidery sentence told
her he got the phone so he could get more
texting pictures from TK, So she said she had enough

(01:04:30):
proof to confront him. So she confronts the man. He
said that TK is his mama's friend. That baby sits
y'all's daughter.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
That's what she said.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
I call her Miss Tammy, and I never knew her
last name. My husband says she smoked. He smokes with
TK and he sees her out a lot. How old
are your mama friend?

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Weed?

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
And he see her out a lot? But she babysit
the baby. How is she out a lot if she
babysitting the baby?

Speaker 5 (01:05:11):
And I'm making sense, I don't understand.

Speaker 2 (01:05:15):
I told him I'd done a thorough investigation, so I
know he's lying. I called him a nasty pig for
having sex with a lady that's forty years older than him.
I don't know what that got to do with anything,
but okay, he laughed in my face. He laughed in
my face. Now, she said, Miss tammill no longer keep

(01:05:37):
my child, but she can have my man. I plan
to move out, And all he can say is is
not what I think? What else could it be? There
could be a number of things. I'm sure I don't
know which one of he trying to get you to believe.
I don't know what he's trying to get her to believe.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
But see, you got it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
Somebody had the picture of the bikini and the butt,
and you sent somebody an address. I don't know how
you get out of this one.

Speaker 5 (01:06:02):
Yeah, you were, you were trying to help them, man.

Speaker 1 (01:06:05):
I just don't know how you get out of it.

Speaker 2 (01:06:06):
Somebody sent you the button picture, you put a smile
at all hear, and then send her address to meet
you at. I can't get you out of that. I
cannot get you out of that. The only thing you
could say what she accidentally sent.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
Me the picture.

Speaker 2 (01:06:24):
I didn't want to hurt her feelings, so I put
a heart emoji and the address I sent her so
she could bring our baby over there, because I didn't
want to go over her house no more, because I
saw she was trying to get me no sir, Yeah
that's all, And I don't want to be over her
house and upset you and my mama. Wow, that's all

(01:06:45):
he got, but he didn't use that one. All he's
saying is is not what you think? So she gonna
move out and all he can say is ain't what
you think?

Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
What else could it be?

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
Do I need to go talk to Miss Tammock? Now, see,
you gotta be careful about running up on them older women, Yeah,
because they know how to end conflict quickly.

Speaker 1 (01:07:13):
What's see you young?

Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
First of all, missus Tammy, when you knock on the
door and she look outside and see your expression, she's
gonna take your rings off. She's gonna go in the
bathroom and get some vaclin and put it on her face.
So yeah, she's gonna put a vas lien on her face.
So all that you do to her face gonna slip off.

(01:07:36):
She gonna take her wig off. Ain't no need of
pulling that, and she gonna answer the door with the
stocking cap on.

Speaker 5 (01:07:46):
Scare you.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Yeah, Now, if you go up there at Miss Tammock house,
it's gonna be different because she know what you're over
that for. Because you don't ever come pick the baby up.
He always dropped baby. Cause see, women, y'all don't know
how to act like.

Speaker 1 (01:08:04):
Ain't nothing wrong. Y'all don't know how to go ding dong. Hello.

Speaker 2 (01:08:10):
You know hey, miss Tammy, how you doing today? I
was just doing the wellness check. Make sure you're okay.
I called your phone. You ain't a maybe I ain't
getting no call. I was just checking to see if

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
Can't really help this lady out. I don't know what
she's gonna do.

Speaker 5 (01:08:57):
Because she's kind of made up her mind though he
says she's leaving.

Speaker 1 (01:09:02):
Well you know, yeah, he said, it ain't what you
think it is. We'll tell him to tell you what
it is.

Speaker 2 (01:09:08):
Yeah, Well, if he can explain the picture, the likes
and descending the address being giving him a shot. But
he got to be able to explain the getting the
phone sent to the job, I can ease I was

If he's guilty of that, those allegations, then what's the allegation?

Speaker 4 (01:11:42):
What it?

Speaker 1 (01:11:42):
What's it? Clearly?

Speaker 4 (01:11:43):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (01:11:43):
What I'm saying?

Speaker 7 (01:11:46):
One massage there say while he was getting the massage,
he rubbed the inside of her thigh.

Speaker 1 (01:11:54):
Just ain't I rubbed you? You rubbed back that ain't
what that ain't what the that's inappropriate. That's you get
the rubbing back you put your hands on it. But
now let me say this though, m h, I can't
get the inside of my thigh rubbed. I just that's
why I don't go.

Speaker 5 (01:12:12):
Down anything crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
Now, That's why I don't go get massages because I
can't get the inside of my If you rub the
inside of my thigh, my reaction automatically, autumatically is to
rub the inside of your thigh.

Speaker 1 (01:12:26):
That's just me. That's why I don't go down there.

Speaker 2 (01:12:28):
And maybe and maybe he got that same problem, cause see,
you know, if I you know, you know, if I'm
on my stomach and your thumb slide okay, okay, we
slide on my glue before and your thumb slide on
my glue, then I'm assuming it all be my turn
where my thumb can slide on your glue and that

(01:12:50):
that's what happens with it. Yeah, this is not you
do me. I do you to tell you what? This
is a one way operation. I do all the rubbing.

Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
She's a professional, yeah, and she should be allowed to
do her job.

Speaker 7 (01:13:05):
Now, I mean, come on, Jessin Tucker did you see
what happened with Deshauna.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
Did you see what happened then?

Speaker 2 (01:13:10):
Well he got in trouble and we gave him guaranteed
two hundred and forty million somm that's true.

Yeah, maybe justin Tucker thinking I'm gonna see what happens
with this story. I'll keep you up. He got a
big contract coke Ter coming up.

Speaker 3 (01:13:28):
At the top of the hour, Steve, a woman on
social media needs your advice, she says, Should I say
something to my boss?

Speaker 5 (01:13:34):
We'll talk about it right after this.

Speaker 3 (01:13:36):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey morning shows Maria and
Steve Harvey FM. Steve writes, I accidentally overheard my coworker
talking about a job interview they have lined up. I'm
pretty sure our boss has no clue she is shopping
around for another job. She was just put in charge
of a new project that's pretty important, and we'll have

(01:13:57):
her working closely with one of our biggest clients. I
feel like I need to say something to our boss
about this, but I don't want to come off as
a gossip. Should I give our boss a heads up
or stay out of it all together?

Speaker 1 (01:14:11):
That ain't your biziness. That's why we got the right
to look for another job, right, Yeah, brown nose and
fall Black history months.

Speaker 2 (01:14:23):
To put you in charge of the project. See that
was really wrong. You mad because she got in charge
of the project. What do that have to do with
her ability to do the project?

Speaker 5 (01:14:39):
And what if she doesn't get the job if she
does the interview? Anything?

Speaker 1 (01:14:42):
But but either people make me sicke man.

Speaker 5 (01:14:49):
Yeah, you're a hater, lady.

Speaker 1 (01:14:51):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (01:14:53):
You go in there and tell him I'm looking for

Have time for another one, Steve. This is from EJ
on Facebook.

Speaker 3 (01:15:28):
EJ says, I recently started a new job and every
day the entire office goes out for lunch. Based on
the way they're chatting when they come back to the
office simultaneously, I assume they all go to the same
place together for the last two weeks, I was the
only person in the office at lunchtime. No one has

(01:15:48):
addressed the fact that the new guy is alone in
the office or mentioned anything to me about their lunch gathering.

Speaker 5 (01:15:55):
I feel really left.

Speaker 3 (01:15:56):
Out, even more than I already was just being the
new Should I say something or just hope they eventually
warm up to me and maybe invite me to lunch.

Speaker 3 (01:18:19):
We'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming
up in twenty minutes after. Right after this, you're listening
to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Let's hear about this story.
On Christmas Day, superstar Golfer Scottie Scheffler was making homemade ravioli.
When he couldn't find the right kitchen tool to shape
the pasta, he decided to use an empty wine glass.

(01:18:40):
Of course, the glass broke and stabbed Scheffler in the hand.
He underwent surgery and couldn't play golf in the first
two tournaments of this year. So why And what I
mean was that, what this is terrible?

Speaker 1 (01:18:57):
You don't need to be in the kitchen at all
a wine glass to stir up some.

Speaker 5 (01:19:02):
Past yeah, shape, yeah, to shape the homemade positive. Yes,
he turned upside down, that's what he was doing.

Speaker 3 (01:19:11):
Yeah, though, Yeah, it's terrible. You guys ever do anything
crazy like this and get injured doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:19:19):
I just cut.

Speaker 2 (01:19:20):
I was at a golf place, man taking lessons, and uh,
somebody had gave me as a gift for arm a
Swiss army knife and I tape up two of my
fingers when I played golf.

Speaker 1 (01:19:32):
I just do it because that's how Tiger do it.
That's maybe I play like Tager.

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Let me take me And I was cutting it with
the knife and split my middle finger. And I'm talking
about man, a deep cut and I could not stop
it from bleeding for hours, hours And this was last year.
That's the dumbest thing I did, and it messed up
my golf lesson for the rest of the week. Wow,
because every time I held my hand down it and

(01:20:00):
and squeeze the club that it opened back up and
started bleeding. Dumbest thing I've done.

Speaker 1 (01:20:05):
Coming up?

Speaker 5 (01:20:06):
Hey, well, have a rounded would you rather? Right after this?
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (01:20:12):
Hey, look, you can't let the urge to sing your
favorite songs while you're driving distract you from that truck
drifting toward your lane or that lane splitting biker creeping
up beside you. Fortunately, every Honday offers advanced safety features
that can alert you to potential dangers around you.

Speaker 6 (01:20:30):
That's right, because Hondai is always working to ensure the
road doesn't get you. Hondai vehicles have one over one
hundred and twenty IIHS Top Safety Awards from two thousand
and six to twenty twenty four.

it put it out there.

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
Really Philly Oh, I'm pulling for everything in me for Philly. Okay,
but now would I put some money on it?

Speaker 1 (01:21:04):
Not a quarter? I ain't betting to geinst Patrick mahone

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):

on Buffalo. They had fourteen seconds. Damn, come on, Philly,
come through?

Speaker 5 (01:21:28):
All right?

Speaker 3 (01:21:30):
Would you rather only play in the first three quarters
or just play the last play of the Super Bowl?
Would you rather only play the first three quarters or
just play the last play in the Super Bowl?

Speaker 1 (01:21:44):
Or at the last play.

Speaker 5 (01:21:47):
Last play, you'll go down in history, right, don't.

Speaker 1 (01:21:51):
Don't give me the ball or nothing. I don't want
that just.

Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
Somewhere out you know, cause they got an attitude when
you got the ball. M defense got an attitude. They
won't git back. They be trying to dislodge.

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
No, you just ask me.

Speaker 2 (01:22:08):
You ain't got to knock it all out. You gotta
put your helmet all in my chests and stuff here,
all right?

Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
Would you rather your favorite team lose every time they
go to the Super Bowl or never ever make it
to the super Bowl?

Speaker 5 (01:22:23):
Which one hurts more?

Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
Well, I'm gonna go with A. I'll go with a
at least getting there, at least we ain't being to
the super Bowl. Wait a minute, whatever, I hope they
never what's the question?

Speaker 3 (01:22:35):
Would you rather your favorite team lose every time they
go to the Super Bowl? So they do make it
to the super Bowl, but they lose every time? Or
would you never ever make it to.

Speaker 5 (01:22:45):
The super Bowl? Would you be happy if your team
just never ever made it? Would you rather that?

Speaker 1 (01:22:49):

I'm just with timing. Yeah, just call me whoever, y'all stupid? Sorry,
we got to go.

Speaker 5 (01:23:51):
Coming up next. We'll close out the Show with the
one and Only Steve Harvey.

Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
Right after this, Let's it's DJ call your boy Chris Broke.

Speaker 5 (01:23:59):
Hey, this is Keisha Cole Lost People, And this is
Kark Franklin.

Speaker 1 (01:24:01):
Hey, this is John Legend. And you listen to the
Steve Harvey Mornings Show.

Speaker 3 (01:24:04):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Hey, who's
a Shirley Strawberry?

Speaker 1 (01:24:11):
And you know what it's like.

Speaker 3 (01:24:12):
You're driving around all over town and your schedule is
packed all day long. I mean you're booked and business.
That's when your me time becomes even more important. Well
what if your me time and you're driving around time
were the same in the all new twenty twenty five
Nissan Morano.

Speaker 5 (01:24:28):
There it can be. I mean the Morano was.

Speaker 3 (01:24:30):
Literally designed to help you relax. We're talking about ambient
mood lighting and over sixty four different colors and a
Bose Premium sound system playing all your favorite music so
you can just dive up the music and the lighting
to sect whatever vibe you want. And just like that,
you created your own personal oasis and you're still getting
everything done. That's your crazy day dictates. I mean it's

(01:24:52):
not often that productivity and relaxation intersect, right, but they
certainly do. And the all new Morano because no amount
of rushing around is going to get you down when
you're chilling. And a morano check it out for yourself,
should be only twenty five. And he's on Morano today,
and be it. Lighting in boats are optional, teacher. All right, guys,

(01:25:13):
here we are our last break of the day on
this Tuesday.

Speaker 4 (01:25:17):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:25:19):
The way things are going nowadays, you know, the election,
the presidency, the economy. Are these new tariffs? Are all
these troops heading down to the border. Are they getting
rid of DEI? They're getting rid of the sixty four

(01:25:40):
Civil Rights bill? You know, really, of all of the
ones that's happening. You know, this civil rights bill. That's crazy.
So you think it'd be best to resind the fact
that you all tried to make up for all the
wrongs that have been done by giving some type of
civil rights. Why is it that we live in a

(01:26:03):
country that can make a decision that people of color
should have civil rights? What happened to your constitution that
everybody has the right to the pursuit of happiness?

Speaker 1 (01:26:18):
What happened to that?

Speaker 2 (01:26:20):
But you then told us that we don't even have
the right to civil rights, that you no longer have
to treat us in a civil way and get right
on back to what America used to do. Just stepping
on folks. You know what. But what I'm not going
to do for four years on this radio is complain.

(01:26:42):
And I suggest everybody understands something. Get yourself together. If
you ain't ever had an attempt to turn yourself into something,
I think you better get to doing it now. I'm
not saying everybody got to go out and open a business.
That's not what I'm saying. But I'm talking about really
really get yourself together spiritually and mentally. You have got

(01:27:05):
to get yourself together spiritually and mentally. You've got to
develop the right attitude to and do it this next
four years, and you need your spirituality to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:15):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:27:15):
What kind of money you make, that's up to you.
What decision you make about your income, that's up to you.
You know, some people are trying to figure out ways
and how to cut back. Other people are trying to
figure out how to make more.

Speaker 4 (01:27:29):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:27:30):
The only thing with cutting back is now, I can
understand cutbacks if you've started to live beyond your means.
Then you got to get back down within your means,
so it's not so stressful. But that's normally what happens.
Once you get outside of your means, you run the
credit cards all the way up, you find yourself totally

(01:27:52):
in debt and you're struggling to make your bills because
you've got too many bills. Then you know, cutting back
might have to be a consideration for you, or you
could be of the other mind said, if you're an entrepreneur,
I'm gonna make more money to deal with this, because

(01:28:12):
I heard somebody say to me one time. They said, hey, man,
why would I give back a blessing God gave to me.
I'm not cutting back nothing, I'm gonna go make more money. Well,
that's an entrepreneurial spirit. Everybody's not an entrepreneur. The majority
of people have jobs, and there's nothing wrong with that.
It's absolute. Some of the best people I've ever met
in my life are just hard working, job holding people.

(01:28:34):
Is nothing wrong with that. Man, My father was that,
so I've had nothing but a prime example of that. So,
whatever the case may be, you got to get yourself
mentally prepared to deal with this, and the best way
to get mentally prepared is get your spirituality together.

Speaker 4 (01:28:51):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:28:52):
I had to get up and watch an episode of
About Anxiety with Joel Goldstein this morning because I was
I didn't sleep well last night because I did what
I tell people not to do all the time. I
was worried about something I had no control over. But
I'm human, I'm human, and it was the last thing
I was thinking about and talking about last night. So

(01:29:13):
oftentimes that's the thing that will keep you up at night.
If you go to bed on the negative subject, you
probably gonna have some negative thoughts. And that's what happened
to me. But I had to get up this morning
and cut on Joel O's dey and I just said,
I just need an answer. And you know what anxiety
is when you're troubling and worrying yourself about something you
have no control over. And those two things are normally

(01:29:34):
your future or your past. And I was worried about
something in the future that I have no control over.
But then I had to remind my wife told me
last night on the phone. She says, Steve Harvey, take
your own advice. When God closes a door, when the
door's closed in your face. Don't stand that beating on
that door.

Speaker 1 (01:29:54):
Walk up the hallway. There are more doors.

Speaker 2 (01:29:58):
Don't you ever give nobody the power to think that
because they then shut a door in your face, that
they got control of your destiny. They are not the
author or the architect of my future. I have given
that sole control to God. So I had to remind myself,
Steve Harvey, you trip it, Walk up the hallway.

Speaker 1 (01:30:20):
They have no idea. They didn't make me. There's no
breaking me, there's none of that.

Speaker 2 (01:30:26):
Stay on your journey, wake up on this radio in
the morning, and get back in the uplift business. You know,
I got an enemy out there, and they're in the
taarown business, and I got to remember not to try
to combat that because I'm in the uplift business. My
enemy is in the tab people down business. I'm in

(01:30:48):
to try to improve people business. Why would I get
in the same business here trying to combat him when
clearly we stay. We play in two different leagues. And
I'm not really good at quoting rap records, but I
heard Jay Z one time say something to the effect,
we in two different leagues, Homie, We're shooting at two
different baskets. As a matter of fact, me and you

(01:31:08):
we pay two different taxes. Shoe State warn.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
Hey y'all have a great day to day. We talk
to God.
