00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,160
Speaker 3: to have multiple women, but I love my wife. Dear

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 3: Stephen Shirley.

13
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 2: I'm a forty year old black man with a lot

14
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 2: of weight in my community.

15
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: I'm a very.

16
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: Well known businessman and former professional football player. I've been

17
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 2: married for years for ten years, and i have three children.

18
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: My wife is very sweet and we never argue or

19
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 2: have any issues with our children. Everything is great except

20
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: for our sex life. Life is a good woman that

21
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 2: is very reserved in the bedroom. I had a lifestyle

22
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 2: of having multiple women in my bed before I got married,

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: and I could get a woman to do whatever I

24
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 2: like sexually. It wasn't a control thing. Women did it

25
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: just to say they've been with the ballplayer. Two years ago,

26
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 2: I fell back into my old ways after I met

27
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: a woman that's a prominent and successful realtor. We clicked

28
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: right away, and I found out that she's into a

29
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: swinging type of lifestyle.

30
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: She shut up.

31
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 2: She invited me to join her exclusive group of upscale

32
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 2: swingers in our city. I enjoyed the group for a while,

33
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: but the realtor and I realized that we loved having

34
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: sex mainly with each other. So for the past year

35
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: and a half we've been in a relationship. And then

36
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: she invited a female partner to join in on the fund.

37
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: I went from being a swing to more of a

38
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: polyamory lifestyle. I'm worried that my wife could find out

39
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: because some of the swinging couples have children that go

40
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: to school with our children. One of the ladies is

41
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 2: my wife's sorority sister. Now my conscience is getting the

42
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 2: best of me. I could tell my wife a watered

43
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: down version of what's been going on, Like I went

44
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: to a party and when I realized that everyone was

45
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 2: what everyone was doing, I left. I hate to break

46
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 2: up with my girlfriends, but there is no way I

47
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 2: could live without my wife and kids. Should I keep

48
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: quiet and pray this never comes out, or tell my

49
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 2: wife part of the story.

50
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 4: This started out as good, be.

51
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: Quiet, Tommy. So let me ask you this, sir, forty

52
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 2: year old black man. You don't think your wife is

53
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 2: going to find out? I mean, really, the kids and

54
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: the sorority sister and all that. Okay, let's go down

55
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: the list. You say, you're a former professional football player.

56
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 2: You're very well known businessman with a lot of weight

57
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: in your community. So, in other words, everyone knows you.

58
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: You probably can't walk around in your city where there's

59
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 2: someone who doesn't know you. I just think it's a

60
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: matter of time before you know, your wife finds out

61
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: or it gets out, because, like I said, too many

62
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: people know you, and people talk, word gets around. I

63
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 2: don't know how you've been getting away with it for

64
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: this long, I honestly don't. I mean, why would you

65
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 2: risk at all just for freaky sex?

66
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: Why would you do that? Okay? Is that a crazy question?

67
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: Is that a crazy Is that a crazy question? I'm

68
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 2: just trying to find out. You say you can't live

69
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 2: without your wife and kids. Well, you sure don't act

70
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: like it.

71
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: You sure don't act like what a big risk you're

72
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: taking here.

73
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: I think you're a sorry excuse for a husband for

74
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 2: cheating and doing this to your family.

75
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: I mean, thank god they don't know yet. You have way,

76
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: way too much to lose, and you're putting it all

77
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: on the line.

78
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: I'm going to surprise Steve when I say I don't

79
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 2: think you should tell your wife. Normally, Steve, you know

80
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 2: I would say tell. But in this case, I just

81
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: don't see how it would serve any good, it would

82
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: serve any purpose. She doesn't know. I think you should stop.

83
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 2: I definitely think that. I just think if you tell

84
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 2: her it would make things worse. I really really think

85
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: you need to turn your life around. You need to stop.

86
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 2: You need to ask God for forgiveness. You need to pray, pray, pray,

87
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 2: pray that your wife never finds this out. You need

88
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 2: to clean up your act. You need to get rid

89
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 2: of these girlfriends. You need to do all of that.

90
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: Now.

91
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: Having said that, I know you're not going to do it.

92
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: I know you're not. I know you're not. I hope

93
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 2: you do, though, for the sake of your wife and

94
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 2: kids that you claim you can't live without.

95
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 5: Steve, all right, let me just tell you what really

96
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 5: happened in this letter. Right here, the forty year old

97
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 5: black man to write it is a letter. I know

98
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 5: exactly where you're coming from. So let's just peel back

99
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 5: the skin on this banana for a second. First of all,

100
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 5: the whole beginning of the letter has nothing to do

101
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 5: with the letter nothing. I don't care that you have

102
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 5: weight in your community. I don't care that you're a

103
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 5: former football player. I don't care that you had wonderful

104
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 5: sex in your past. That story that you're telling fits

105
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 5: any damn man to drive a.

106
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 4: PEPSI truck.

107
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:42,440

00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 5: got twenty five women on his route.

111
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: Oh god, that's a lot too much.

112
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 4: You got three, little girl.

113
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,560

Speaker 5: how upscale you are in the community, because brother, we

117
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 5: can take away all that and this story fits into

00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 5: I enjoyed the group for a while, but the reality

182
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 5: and I realized that we just love having sex, mainly

183
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 5: with each other. Okay, so for the past year and

184
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 5: a half we've been in a relationship. And then she

185
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 5: invited her female partner to join in the fund.

186
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 4: Okay, so not you.

187
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,199
Speaker 5: And of course you had to do that because someone,

188
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 5: someone somewhere that you're not pointing out in this letter,

189
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 5: has a gun to your head. To understand, man, why

190
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 5: you just got to do all of this here because

191
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 5: you fell back into your old ways.

192
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 4: So okay, all.

193
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 5: Right, So now I went from being a swinger to

194
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 5: more of a polygamy of polyameri lifestyle, which I had

195
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 5: that on my Facebook show. That's you, me and she,

196
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 5: that's what that is. So now you fell into that

197
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 5: you me and she. So now you've did that like that.

198
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 5: I'm very worried that my wife could find out.

199
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 4: What all this. We'd have read three fourths of the letter.

200
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 4: Now you're very worried that your wife would find out.

201
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 4: It's one way for her not to find out. But

202
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 4: we ain't gonna cover that though.

203
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 5: Hour Now listen to this, because some of the swinging

204
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 5: couples have children that go to school with our children.

205
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 5: What swinger is sitting they baby down going hey look here,

206
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 5: you know you know, uh, Jessica's father that played football.

207
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 5: You do know that Jessica's father that played football, that

208
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 5: he comes over here with me and your daddy and.

209
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 4: We do each other.

210
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 5: Now you need to tell that to Jessica so she'll

211
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 5: know what her father's doing. So, bro, when you wrote

212
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 5: in the letter you wear it, they might find out

213
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 5: because some of the swinging couples have children that go

214
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 5: to school with our children.

215
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 4: How hard y'all swinging? Where the kids know. I'm telling you,

216
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 4: man so.

00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 5: And then one of the ladies is my wife's sorority sister. Okay, brother,

218
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 5: are you stupid? Y see, that's where the connection is.

219
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 5: One of these girls is your wife's sorority sister. Don't

220
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 5: worry about who kids go to school together. Now my

221
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 5: conscious is getting the best of me. Where did that
