00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on,

10
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey Man got

11
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,119
Speaker 1: a radio show. Wow man, how good has God been

12
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: to me? You know? Today? Let me get right to

13
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 1: it because I'm I'm kind of feeling this today, and

14
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's just quite a few of you

15
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: who go through the same things today. Today was just

16
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 1: a little tough morning for me because I didn't want

17
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: to leave home yesterday. You don't want to stay home

18
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: a little I just gotten home, you know, I gotta

19
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: go again. And sometimes, you know, just the weight of

20
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: all that you have to do just gets on you

21
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: sometimes and sometimes you don't feel like doing it today. Huh.

22
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just talking to those who feel this

23
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: way every now and then, and I'm assuming that would

24
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: be everybody, because I don't know nobody who can just

25
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: ply through this thing without having those days. Well, what

26
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: do you do when it gets hard to stay up?

27
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: What do you do when it gets hard to be positive?

28
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: What do you do when it seems like things aren't

29
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: happening for you fast enough or in the time frame

30
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: that you thought it was going. What do you do?

31
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: And the reason that I guess I chose to speak

32
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: about this this morning is because I'm having one of

33
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: those days. Because I had one of those days yesterday.

34
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: It's just a tough day. I really can't explain. It's

35
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: nothing really in particular bad happened. It's just I think

36
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: the weight of all that's going on started to feel

37
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: heavy to me. And so what do you do when

38
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: when you have days like that, when it's hard to

39
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: be positive, when it's hard to stay up? Okay, here's

40
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: what I had to start doing this morning. Now. I

41
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: haven't completed it, can't I just be real with you.

42
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: I haven't completed it, but I am processing it out

43
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: because I know what to do. You know, been there

44
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: done that. I'dn't had that pain before I know what

45
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: to do. You know, if I sprain my finger, I

46
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: know what to do. Now. You know the first sprain

47
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: I had, O Lord, I thought it was broke. I

48
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,119
Speaker 1: thought I got me handaclf. But now if I spray

49
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: my finger, I know what to do. So since I've

50
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: been in this position, in this hole so many times before,

51
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: and God has always gotten me through it, I decided

52
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: I've got to start the process today. Want to hear

53
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: are some things now I'm gonna get to the big

54
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: one last. And one of the things I do is

55
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: I remember the plan, sit down, and I consciously think

56
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: about the goals I've set. I go over see. I've

57
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: got mine down on an iPad so I can pull

58
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: them out anywhere I am and pull them up. And

59
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: I've got two lists that I've made. I've got a

60
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: list of things that I know I cannot acomplished if

61
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: I just keep working hard, and if it's some couple

62
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: of things just fall into place that I can see,

63
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: then I got a list of things that I'm planning

64
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 1: on accomplishing. And then I have a second list. And

65
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 1: the heading of this list is called only God can

66
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: help me now. And on this list it's things that

67
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: I'm aspiring for or things that I'm hoping to that

68
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 1: in order for them to happen, I absolutely have to

69
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: have God's help. That's my favorite list. It's the list

70
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,559
Speaker 1: that I have of the things that I don't see

71
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: no way it can happen. I'm just operating on faith

72
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: and the hope that God hear me, and so sometimes, man,

73
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 1: when you gotta when I have this list of who

74
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 1: only God can help me, now that list is stuff

75
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: that I cannot see. I'm just operating on faith that

76
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: God is so much bigger than me, that he's so

77
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: much more capable than I am, that I can actually

78
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: acquire some things in my life, as he's proven to

79
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: me time and time again up to this point, that

80
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: He's willing to do for me. If I'm willing to

81
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: just give him some of my life. That's the only

82
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: why I can't explain my existence today. You know, I

83
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: began the conversation with my wife, how do I write

84
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,799
Speaker 1: a book that becomes so wildly successful? That would be God.

85
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: That's only God. Because if you can plan to sit

86
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: down and write a wildly successful book, I'd have Benden

87
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: sat down and did it, and so would you so

88
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: that would be God. How it got purchased to become

89
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: a movie when that was not my intent when I

90
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: wrote the book at all. Again, that would be God. Right,

91
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: there has to be, because if I can't explain it

92
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: and it is by no doing of my own, then

93
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,559
Speaker 1: who did it? So when I get down in days

94
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: like this, I remember the goal. I remember the plan.

95
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: I remember the journey. I think about of all the

96
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: things God has bought me to how did I even

97
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: get to this point? Yeah? I might be having a

98
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: little bummer of a day. Yeah I was a little

99
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: down yesterday. Yeah, my bio rhythms is off, whatever they

100
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: want to call it. Yeah, I'm just having one of

101
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: those days. I feel a little bit heavy. I need

102
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: a vacation real bad. I need some time off to

103
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: just go and regenerate. But right now, man, I ain't

104
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: got that. So guess what I do. I gotta start

105
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: remembering the plan. I gotta start remembering the goals. I

106
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: gotta start thinking about all the things that God has

107
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: done for me and how He has bought me this

108
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: far and the blessings that I have instead of what

109
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: I don't have. And that's what I'm in the process

110
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: of doing this morning, and on the commercial breaks, I'm

111
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: gonna pull out my iPad and I'm gonna go over

112
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: my two lists, and I'm gonna read my little list

113
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: of what I think I can accomplish, and I'm gonna

114
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: really read that only God can help Me now list,

115
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: because that's the list that's big. That's the part where

116
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: I've been telling y'all. I said, quit telling God how

117
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: big your problems are, and start telling your problems how

118
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: big your God is. See. And that's why I got

119
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: to sit down and do this morning. And then sometimes, man,

120
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: you got to stay still. That's the other part. You

121
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: got to stay still. You gotta quit moving for a second,

122
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: because sometimes it feel like you're running on a treadmill

123
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: and you really ain't you going somewhere, but it feel

124
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: like you're running on a treadmill. Well, when you get

125
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: that feeling, sometimes you gotta stay still. And then when

126
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: you stay still, sometimes you gotta fight to stay positive.

127
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta fight not to let the devil win.

128
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: You're in a fight, mam. I told you this. Now

129
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: you're in a fight now, So trying to get you

130
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 1: to get on that positive train so he can get

131
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: you off the faith train. So God's delivery package that's

132
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: coming to you built on your faith that you can.

133
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: He can shake your faith and get you to thinking

134
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: negative and then he wins. See. So when you start

135
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 1: feeling negative, just know that that's the other force trying

136
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: to throw you off track. And when you get through

137
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: it all that he is the key to big one.

138
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: You want me tell it to you. You gots to pray. Man,

139
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: You got to pray. You gotta take it to God.

140
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: You gotta say, Hey, God, look I'm having one of

141
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: these days. I need your help. I got business to

Speaker 1: do is be it on be on doubted Way or

246
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: and so just pull the young dude over to the

247

Speaker 1: out because after that dog, it's out your hands. Know

254
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 1: what they do outside the house, it's not because you're

255
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: not letting them do it. In the house. That's what

256
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 1: people have a misconception of. They think that in parenting,

257
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: if you don't allow them to do it in the house,

258
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: when they get out the house, if you don't let

259
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 1: them do it in the house, when they get out

260
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: the house, they're gonna do it. No, they're gonna do

261
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: it any damn right. You know, you got people talking

262
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: about I let my kids drink and smoke weed in

263
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: the house. That way, they ain't out in the streets

264
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: drinking and smoking. Yes they are. If they're drinking and

265
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: smoking weed in your house, they're drinking and smoking weed

266
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: out in the street. You've been a fool to allow

267
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 1: it to happen in your house. You gotta have some

268
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: type of rules, man, to give them pause for thought

269
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: when they go out the house. Just Paul's for thought.

270
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: You're not gonna stop. So and your daughter is beautiful,

271
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: and she's smart, and she's very smart. She's very smart,

272
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: so you have to trust her. And I agree with Steve,

273
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: you have to, you know, I think, yes, I want

274
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: to believe that I do. Yeah. So glad she got

275
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: a lemonade sense. Shut up, boy, she got a mama.

276
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: And we hope they all make smart I know, yeah,

277
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: we all have. What else anybody else got to ask

278
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 1: Steve question? Uh, let's see. Okay, so you you said,

279
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: I want to get back to you said you don't

280
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: have any I just found it that you said earlier

281
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: you don't have any friends that are millionaires. Why is that, Steve,

282
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,239
Speaker 1: Because it seems like to me, because you're one, you

283
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,199
Speaker 1: would hang around people that are like you. Well, you

284
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: hang around people, but that doesn't mean you form friendships.

285
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 1: You know what I mean friendship? To me, it's delicate,

286
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a process to become my friend. You know. Yeah,

287
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: I got to have been down in the ditch and

288
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: you climb down in there with me. Na, now we're

289
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: friend see or you know? Man or I think that

290
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: if I get in the situation I feel in my

291
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 1: heart of hearts, I could call you without you judging me.

292
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: You would just help me. Then we'll talk about how

293
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: to prevent mistake from happening again. Now I should say

294
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: this though, I have a couple of brothers. I have

295
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: a couple of brothers that I'm really really close to

296
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: that I have been in the trenches with and they

297
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: do have, you know, way more money than I got

298
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 1: you don't know them. They not famous, They business people.

299
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: They live out the country, so I would have to

300
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: put them to in the group. Now said the entertainer

301
00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: is my friend. He is my friend. That dude right there,

302
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: he go to blows from me. You know. Now, I

303
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: have great relationships with some famous people. I think me

304
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,200

Speaker 1: the hour, Thank you, nephew. Coming up at the top

473
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 1: of the our entertainment and national news right after this,

474
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: you're listening to the show, all right. Everybody can make

475
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: this note to themselves. Doing business with a criminal suspect

476
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: isn't always the best way to go. Okay, just make

477
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: that note for yourself. So okay, Valencia Love put up.

478
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: We're wondering who put up the money to bail R.

479
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: Kelly out of jail. Well, her name is Valencia Love.

480
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: She put up the one hundred thousand dollars needed to

481
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 1: get R. Kelly out on bond back in February when

482
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: he was arrested on ten counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.

483
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: She also paid his fifty thousand dollars in back child

484
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: support when he was jailed in March for missing payments.

485
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: To a question, before you go any further, this is

486
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: not a joke. I'm asking a question. Is it true

487
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: that she owns a daycare? I heard she owned the restaurant?

488
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: Rest restaurant care? Yeah, I didn't hear she owned a daycare. Now,

489
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: that was the thing that was a serious question. Yeah. Yes,

490
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: the answer had been yes. I was going to ask

491
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: for restaurant, Okay, cool. I was just asking because then

492
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: if it was true, then returned from a question to

493
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: I would have several states story. It's just it's restaurant.

494
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: I just wanted to know. I know, seriously, somebody told

495
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: me that in the very serious tone, and so I

496
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: was just asking, was that a daycare? I didn't hear that.

497
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: The food in the end of the daycare? Tommy, where

498
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: did you hit them all? A right? Here? It is

499
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: here it is. Once it was revealed, a woman helped

500
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 1: free r Kelly, Twitter began to track her down and

501
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 1: found out she was a forty seven year old and

502
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: owner of a couple of businesses in Chicago area, one

503
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: day care center, the other a restaurant, So she owned

504
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: both of them, actually both and that's okay. So well, now,

505
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: after after finding that out and thinking it through a

506
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: little bit more, album reserved my comments. In a four

507
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: page motion, Steve Valencia Love claims that she knew R.

508
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: Kelly personally and that he promised to pay her money

509
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: back at the time, she said she didn't know about

510
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 1: other investigations. Unfortunately, Illinois Judge Lawrence Flood said no to

511
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: Valencia Love's request because she has no legal basis to

512
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: get her money back. Meanwhile, R. Kelly is in jail again,

513
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: this time for federal crime. Wait a minute, hold up, whoa,

514
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: he's in jail again? And pop, yeah, I didn't know that.

515
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: How longly been in jail? Some months? A couple. You

516
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: was on the boat when they picked him up. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

517
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: you were out of You was on the boat when

518
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: they picked him up. Y'all. We have to say congratulations.

519
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: This is a big story from my home station NIX

520
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: ninety two point three in Detroit. We have to say

521
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: congratulations to the Detroit Youth Choir. They were a finalist

522
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: last night on America's Got Talent Detroit. We are so

523
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: proud of you. They didn't win. Cody Lee, the Blind

524
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: Artistic sing guys, he won the million dollars. But Detroit

525
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 1: Youth Choir, they were right there and they represent Yeah,

526
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: all right, switching gears now, ladies and gentlemen, miss Anne Tripp. Okay,

527
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: thank you very much, and good morning, and yes, yes, yes,

528
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: congratulations Detroit. This is a trip with the news. Secretary

529
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 1: State Mike Pompeio was accusing Iran of making what he

530
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 1: describes as an act of war by attacking Saudi Arabia's

531
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: oil infrastructure a few days ago. Rebels and Yemen have

532
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: clean responsibility for it, though, but POMPEII was dismissing that

533
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: one because he says the Whosies just don't have that

534
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,319
Speaker 1: kind of capability. The equipment used is unknown to be

535
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 1: in the the arsenal. Meanwhile, President Trump is appointed Robert

536
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: O'Brien to be his next National Security Advisor, and this

537
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 1: will be the fourth man appointed to the position by Trump,

538
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,360
Speaker 1: and only three years before him, there were Generals Michael Flynn,

539
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: HR mcmasses and John boltonmost recently, whom he said he fired,

540
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 1: but John Bolton said no, I quit Robert O'Brien and

541
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: has been serving as America's point man, by the way,

542
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: on hostage affairs. Also, President Trump was in California yesterday

543
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: where he announced that he is revoking that state's long

544
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 1: standing authority to regulate its own emission standards for cars

545
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: and trucks. California was granted the authority to do that

546
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: to regulate its own emissions because the unhealthy air that

547
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 1: was actually kind of famous or infamous to be found

548
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles and some other cities, or the smog

549
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: and stuff, and that's why they got the right in

550
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: the first place. But the Trump administration insists that relax

551
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: standards will result in less expensive and safer cars. But

552
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 1: California Governor Gavin Newsom says the White House is really

553
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 1: trying to only please one constituency, the oil industry. They

554
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: don't care. He doesn't care about the economy, he says,

555
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: or consumers or health or anything like that. As a

556
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,360
Speaker 1: result of an investigation conducted by New Jersey's Attorney General

557
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 1: and the Division of Civil Rights, a white wrestling coach

558
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,760
Speaker 1: named Alan Maloney, who had an assistant cut in African

559
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,720
Speaker 1: American Kid's dreads off before he would let the man compete,

560
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: young man compete well. Alan Maloney has now been suspended

561
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,399
Speaker 1: himself from refereeing any matches for the next two years.

562
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: By the way, a black wrestling coach says the same

563
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: guy Maloney poked him in the chest three years ago

564
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: and called him the N word when they had a disagreement.

565
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: The black coach, Preston Hamilton, responded by slamming Maloney to

566
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: the floor. Troops are being deployed in Bermuda this morning

567
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 1: to help with the reparation the preparations needed in advance

568
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: of the arrival of Hurricane Berto. The Category A three

569
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: storm is expected just north of Bermuda this morning. It

570
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,320
Speaker 1: may be kind of the day right now, any shift

571
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: that could put it right on top of the island.

572
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: So we have to see how the winds are going,

573
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 1: because it can go from really bad to worse. Schools

574
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: are closed into Bermuda, so of the government offices, and

575
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: there's no ferry or bus service and a lot of

576
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: folks try to get out Yesterday and the day before.

577
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: GM factories remain idle for a fourth day to day,

578
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 1: with some forty nine thousand UAW workers still walking picking

579
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: lines at union wants a bigger share of the carmaker's

580
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: profits and better working conditions. GM is said to want

581
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: to bring labor costs down so that they're closer to

582
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 1: auto plants running foreign country cut countries. Finally, today's National

583
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 1: Cheeseburger Day. It's what's for dinner if you like burgers.

584
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 1: Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening

585
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:32,399
Speaker 1: to show, all right, So people are saying with all

586
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: of these NFL quarterback injuries, the Jets, the Saints, the Steelers,

587
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,760
Speaker 1: and now possibly Cam Newton may not start on Sunday

588
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: due to a foot or an ankle injury. Foot in

589
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 1: an ankle injury. Colin Kaepernick's agent said Colin is literally

590
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: in the best shape of his life. He's been working

591
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: out five days a week, yeah, at five am, for

592
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:59,479
Speaker 1: three years. He wants to play. His agent also has

593
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 1: been kind tacting teams in need of a quarterback. So

594
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,799
Speaker 1: what do you think, Steve? I think it would be

595
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: great for the league. The problem that I'm having right now, though,

596
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 1: is this settlement that he signed with the NFL. I'm

597
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:25,320
Speaker 1: concerned that it has some stipulations in it. See listen. Okay, okay,

598
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 1: First of all, you all do understand this that the

599
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: NFL it's group of owners. The group of owners hires

600
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell. You do understand this. They hired the commissioner

601
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 1: because the commissioner is to represent the shield of the NFL. Now,

602
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: he's a pretty well liked owner amongst a lot of

603
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:56,760
Speaker 1: players and amongst the owners. He's very popular guy amongst them.

604
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: Crowds boo him, but the players can said to him

605
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 1: to be a fair judge of character. I don't know

606
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 1: what the deal was that Colins signed the settlement money

607
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 1: that they had to pay him for keeping him out

608
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,280
Speaker 1: of the league. So I don't know if his agent

609
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 1: is being fourth right with that, because you would think

610
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 1: his phone would ring at this particular time. Yeah, they

611
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 1: really need him. Would you have signed that knowing you

612
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: can't play? Would you packing that money? Okay? Yeah, it

613
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: must have been a lot of them because you might

614
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 1: not play. Hello and seeing true, it's hard to get

615
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: guaranteed money in the NFL. Most players don't get guaranteed. Now,

616
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 1: if you get hurt and you don't make the team,

617
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: you out of money. I don't give it. If you don't.

618
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 1: If you signed a four year contract without guarantees and

619
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: you get cut the second year, they don't pay you.

620
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,359
Speaker 1: But it's not like that in baseball and basketball. Huh

621
00:39:55,600 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: oh No, not basketball. Baseball the major and football is

622
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 1: number one spectator sport for television and everything. But the

623
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: problem is they have a sixteen game season. It's eighty

624
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: six games in the NBA, A hundred and sixty eight

625
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: eighty something games in baseball. I don't know that, you

626
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, eighty six to one hundred and

627
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: sixty two sixteen at the money's not there, okay, but

628
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: my owners though they clock it. Yeah, they're getting money

629
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 1: at TV, contract and endorsements. I think Colin should play.

630
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,319
Speaker 1: I would love to see him back, all right. Coming

642
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 1: visiting countries in Africa is always an emotional experience for me.

643
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: Feels like I'm making a peace. I'm making peace with

644
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: a part of me that's yearning for my ancestral connection.

645
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 1: Your thoughts on that, Steve, Wow, I think she's absolutely right.

646
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 1: That is probably the perfect way to describe it. And

647
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 1: that's why I think it's imperative. It's if I know

648
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 1: people are gonna go. Man, it's a long way them tickets.

Speaker 1: make no mistake about that. But Africa is my home land.

656
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: When you step off the plane in Aerica and Africa,

657
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:54,920

671
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,760
Speaker 1: with how I felt about Africa and America. And America

672
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,239

679
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,440

00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: and couldn't get up, and I told y'all what happened

Speaker 1: to me. One of my ancestors was in that room

682
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 1: and he was on me. And when I put my

683
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: hand on the wall, I felt pressure on me. And

684
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 1: what made me know it was real, my oldest son,

685
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: Broderick Junior, was with me. He was facing that same wall,

686
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: heaving uncontrollably. He couldn't even turn around. That's when I

687
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: knew that I had made this boy, and somebody that

688
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,480

886
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,800
Speaker 1: Or leave him. Dear Stephen Shirley, I met an older

887
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 1: guy and I was attracted to him, but played hard

888
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,560
Speaker 1: to get. He begged me for a first date and

889
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 1: I eventually agreed to go out with him. He asked

890
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:35,399
Speaker 1: me to pick him up, and I didn't think much

891
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 1: about it since his house was on the way to

892
00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:40,839
Speaker 1: the restaurant. When I got to the house, he came out,

893
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 1: and so did a much older lady. He got in

894
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 1: my car and told me that was his mother. That

895
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 1: was his mom, and that he lived with her. At

896
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 1: this point, I had an opportunity to tell him that

897
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,320
Speaker 1: I was not interested, but I went out to dinner

898
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 1: with him anyway. At dinner, he told me that he's

899
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaker 1: a convicted felon, but that was years ago and he's

900
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:03,000
Speaker 1: got a great job and a new life now. I

901
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 1: kept seeing this man and eventually went to his home,

902
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: well his mom's house, and saw how filthy his room was,

903
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 1: and I also noticed that his mom's yard was unkept

904
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,240
Speaker 1: and there was trash lying around the driveway and porch. There.

905
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:22,080
Speaker 1: These were red flags, and I told him he should

906
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 1: do better at helping his mom out around the house.

907
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,880
Speaker 1: Then I invited him to my house to meet my

908
00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:31,280
Speaker 1: two children. I know he talks really hood and street,

909
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 1: but I thought he would do better when he met

910
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: my children. He did not, and my kids asked him

911
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 1: why he was talking like a rapper. He kept commenting

912
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 1: on how nice I kept my house, and after the visit,

913
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: his conversations turned to us making a commitment. He suggested

914
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 1: moving in with me so we could be closer and

915
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 1: he could help me out around the house. I was

916
00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,880
Speaker 1: excited at first because I really liked this man, but

917
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,800
Speaker 1: then I thought I was being nice eve and he

918
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:04,560
Speaker 1: could just be using me although he has some character flaws.

919
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:07,360
Speaker 1: Could I work on this fixer upper and be happy?

920
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 1: Or should I leave this man at his mama's house?

921
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:16,040
Speaker 1: Please advise, run, run, run as far away from this

922
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,000
Speaker 1: man as you possibly can. I mean, you gotta leave

923
00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 1: this man alone, please. I mean, when you see red flags,

924
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,720
Speaker 1: don't ignore them. That's what red flags are for. Okay,

925
00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 1: let's go through him. He lives with his mom, all right.

926
00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:36,479
Speaker 1: The yard is nasty, his room is nasty, he has

927
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 1: no car. He doesn't know how to be a good

928
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,800
Speaker 1: role model in front of your children. And if he's

929
00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 1: got such a nice job in a great job and

930
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: all this stuff like you see in the letter, Why

931
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 1: doesn't he save his money and get an apartment. There

932
00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 1: was no discussion about that in this letter. And you know,

933
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: it wasn't until after he saw your place, after he

934
00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 1: came over there, that he started, you know, like kind

935
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: of pressure sing you to move in and to be committed.

936
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 1: He said he would help you around the house. Oh really,

937
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,920
Speaker 1: you would help her, but you're not you. He'll help you,

938
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:10,840
Speaker 1: but he's not going to help his own mom around

939
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:12,960
Speaker 1: the house. He could at least clean up the yard,

940
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: and what about his room. Come on, I don't get this.

941
00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:21,120
Speaker 1: I say, don't let him in your house in this

942
00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 1: kind of a way. Don't let him move in. Please,

943
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,680
Speaker 1: this is not how you want to live. You have

944
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 1: two kids to think about. I think if he was

945
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:31,480
Speaker 1: and you didn't mention, you know, what he was incarcerated

946
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,840
Speaker 1: for or anything like that. You just said he's out.

947
00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,000
Speaker 1: That was years ago, and he has a great job

948
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 1: and a new life now. But it just doesn't look

949
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 1: like it or seem like it. You know. Yeah, he

950
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:44,080
Speaker 1: could be using you, but I say, no, it's too

951
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,480
Speaker 1: soon to move in. Don't let him do it. Steve,

952
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:56,600
Speaker 1: I'm confused. I really am huh about? Why? Why is

Speaker 1: she writing this? Yeah? What is the purpose of this letter?

954
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:03,920
Speaker 1: I don't even know why? Why are we Why are

01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:10,040
Speaker 1: we talking to her about? Who? Who are we talking about? That?

956
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:18,160
Speaker 1: Everything in this letter screams what? Yeah, I mean, the

957
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:24,959
Speaker 1: whole damn letter. Let's start. I met an older guy

958
01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: right down and use attracted to him, but you played

959
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:36,520
Speaker 1: hard to get Okay, you know, older guy, he begged

960
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 1: me for a first date. I agree with grother. He

961
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 1: asked me to pick him up right now, Let's stop,

962
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 1: let's let's go. Let's listen, just listen. You met an

963
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:51,400
Speaker 1: older guy. He asked me to pick him up. I

964
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 1: ain't think nothing about it since his house was on

965
01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:56,760
Speaker 1: the way to the restaurant. When I got to the house,

966
01:00:57,360 --> 01:01:02,720
Speaker 1: he came out, and so did a much older lady.

967
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,439
Speaker 1: Let's circle this. Let's just go for what we got

968
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 1: so far. Matter. Older guy, he asked you to pick

969
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,240
Speaker 1: him up. He come out of the house with an

970
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:15,200
Speaker 1: old ass lady. He got in my car and told

971
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 1: me this was his mom and he lived with her.

972
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 1: Let's circle that. At this point I had the opportunity

973
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 1: to tell him I was not interesting. But I went

974
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 1: out to dinner with him anyway, for what? Why? Let

975
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:39,560
Speaker 1: me circle that. I went out to dinner with him anyway.

976
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:45,520
Speaker 1: Then at dinner he told me he's a convicted feeling.

977
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:50,960
Speaker 1: Let's circle that twice. But that was years ago, and

978
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 1: he got a good job and got a new life.

979
01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:57,960
Speaker 1: Now I kept seeing this man and eventually went to

980
01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: his house, well, his mom's house. Okay, let's circle that,

981

01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 1: went back to his mama's house. And then this older

984
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 1: man you met. You saw how filthy his room was.

985
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:19,560
Speaker 1: You know, the last time I had a room, I

986
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 1: was seventeen. Yeah, and last time I took somebody to

993
01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 1: a continuation because as I continue, I'll explain it. I'm

994
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 1: gonna show you everything that's wrong with this letter. This

995
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 1: letter is should I love him or leave him? Stephen Shirley.

996
01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 1: I met an older guy. I circled that I was

997
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:29,480
Speaker 1: attracting him, but I played hard to get. He begged

998
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:31,520
Speaker 1: me for a first date. I eventually agreed to go

999
01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:34,320
Speaker 1: out with him. He asked me to pick him up.

1000
01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:41,760
Speaker 1: I circled that everything I circle is screaming what I

1001
01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:43,640
Speaker 1: ain't think much about it since his house was on

1002
01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: the way to the the restaurant. When I got to the

1003
01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:49,000
Speaker 1: house and he came out, and so did a much

1004
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 1: older lady. I circled that, who is this old ass lady?

1005
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:58,200
Speaker 1: He got in my car and told me that this

1006
01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:02,800
Speaker 1: was his mom and he lived with her. I circled that,

1007
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 1: let's go back, older guy, you had to pick him up.

1008
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 1: He's this old lady stay there, and you found out

1009
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 1: his mama. At this point, I had an opportunity to

1010
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,680
Speaker 1: tell him I was not interested, but I went out

1011
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 1: to dinner with him anyway. I circled that The question

1012
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:23,600
Speaker 1: I'm begging everybody to ask yourself is why is you

1013
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 1: at dinner with this old ass man to stay at

1014
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,320
Speaker 1: the house with his mama that you had to pick up.

1015
01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:32,360
Speaker 1: That's all I'm asked at dinner. He told me he

1016
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 1: was a convicted fellon. This whole letter is going to hell.

1017
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 1: But I kept seeing the man why. Eventually I went

1018
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:47,440
Speaker 1: to his house where his mom's house. So I circled

1019
01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:49,920
Speaker 1: that because it took you two visits to get it

1020
01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,840
Speaker 1: the first time you pulled up. Next time you went

1021
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 1: to the damn house and found out it was a

1022
01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:57,200
Speaker 1: mama's house. Stretch yelled on in blue plates, leaning up

1023
01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,959
Speaker 1: against the wall on the fireplace, and had that big

1024
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 1: woodn't and spoon and fox set hanging on the damn wall,

1025
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:07,680
Speaker 1: that picture of white Jesus, mar Luther King and John F. Kenned.

1026
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:12,440
Speaker 1: And I noticed that his mom's yard was unkept, and

1027
01:05:12,440 --> 01:05:17,000
Speaker 1: it was trash laying around. I circled that he don't

1028
01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:20,360
Speaker 1: give a damn by his mama. Trash laying around the

1029
01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:25,439
Speaker 1: driveway and the porch that's where he eats. These were

1030
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,120
Speaker 1: all red flags, and I told him he should do

1031
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:31,400
Speaker 1: better helping out his mom around. Now you know what

1032
01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:34,040
Speaker 1: Judge Lynn told her told me one time on the show,

1033
01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:40,360
Speaker 1: what she said, women should stop collecting red flags. Ye,

1034
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:47,200
Speaker 1: women should stop collecting red flags. Time. I'm gonna let

1035
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:52,840
Speaker 1: you use that already for love. This year, women should

1036
01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:57,040
Speaker 1: stop collecting red flags. I told him he should do

1037
01:05:57,080 --> 01:05:59,680
Speaker 1: better helping his mom out around the house. Then I

1038
01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:02,080
Speaker 1: to him to my house to meet my two children.

1039
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:07,080
Speaker 1: I circled this, why is he meeting your damn kids?

1040
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:13,720
Speaker 1: Exactly what redeeming quality has he exhibited where you think

1041
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:17,880
Speaker 1: it's time for him to meet your damn kids? Now

1042
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 1: he talks real hood in street. I circled that he

1043
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:26,080
Speaker 1: stayed home with his mama. Is mama old? You had

1044
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:28,600
Speaker 1: to pick him up? He lived with his mama. You

1045
01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 1: went out to dinner anyway, he a convicted felling. You

1046
01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:34,440
Speaker 1: went to his mama's house. His room is filtered. It's

1047
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:37,800
Speaker 1: translating around the driveway in the porch. I invited him

1048
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:39,720
Speaker 1: to your house to meet the two kids, and he

1049
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 1: talked real hood in street. This whole letter is just

1050
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:45,080
Speaker 1: going to hell. But I thought he would do better

1051
01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,480
Speaker 1: when he met my children. He did not, And your

1052
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:53,680
Speaker 1: kids asked him why was he talking like a rapper?

1053
01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:57,600
Speaker 1: You know why, because your kids know his whole ass

1054
01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 1: should be talking better than one of the damn piers.

1055
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:07,200
Speaker 1: Your kids know that, but you don't. So I circled

1056
01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:11,800
Speaker 1: that he kept commenting on how nice I kept my house.

01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 1: a character flaw. He stayed with him mama. That ain't

01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:50,800
Speaker 1: a character flaw. He's a convicted felon. That ain't a

1083
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:54,679
Speaker 1: character flaw. His room is filtered. That ain't a character flaw.

1084

Speaker 1: It's chanced on the dryway in the porch. That ain't

1085

Speaker 1: Hit me up at lip Spark, Carla, and we'll be

1204
01:17:54,000 --> 01:18:14,559
Speaker 1: back at twenty after. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Well,

1205
01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:18,840
Speaker 1: the chicken sandwich wars are on. First Popeyes versus Chicken

1206
01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:24,679
Speaker 1: Bilelet Now now KFC is rolling out a new version

1207
01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:29,439
Speaker 1: of their chicken sandwich which features a piece of fried chicken.

1208
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:37,520
Speaker 1: Check this out, flapped between two glazed donuts. Oh yeah, delicious,

1209
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:50,960
Speaker 1: sugar and grease together. What's not the love about that? Right? No,

1210
01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:55,080
Speaker 1: no joke. Fried chicken and doughnuts sandwiches are currently being

1211
01:18:55,160 --> 01:18:59,200
Speaker 1: tested at locations in Norfolk and Richmond, Virginia, as well

1212
01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:02,560
Speaker 1: as in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. What do you think, Steve Harvey

1213
01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,320
Speaker 1: let me ask you something. Is it bread or they're

1214
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:08,080
Speaker 1: using the two doughnuts as the bread? Yeah, the two

1215
01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:13,800
Speaker 1: donuts tell the bread. I'll tell you right now. It

1216
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:17,120
Speaker 1: might taste good because I've had glaze, don't know which

1217
01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:21,040
Speaker 1: from fried chicken. But if you eat that whole sandwich,

1218
01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:25,639
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen? Happen? I strongly suggest that you eat

1219
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:31,800
Speaker 1: it under the overhang at the emergency room, like a

1220
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:34,479
Speaker 1: lot of bikes up there, and eat your sandwich on

1221
01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:38,760
Speaker 1: the curve in front of the emergency did right, that's

1222
01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:42,400
Speaker 1: enough cholesterol on the bush your heart. Yeah, that's a

1223
01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:47,760
Speaker 1: lot right there. And the sugar. If you don't have diabetes,

1224
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:51,680
Speaker 1: you wheel all right? All right. We'll have more of

1248
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 1: don't want to be too hard on it, but I

1249
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:24,280
Speaker 1: don't want to be too soft on it at the

1250
01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:28,479
Speaker 1: same time, Hey, man, respect my house. I know my

1251
01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:32,640
Speaker 1: daughter's beautiful. I know you probably attract the tool, but

Speaker 1: this my house. I won't you be respectful my house now?

1253
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:41,120
Speaker 1: In essence, while they're living in your house, you have

1254
01:21:41,320 --> 01:21:44,200
Speaker 1: some say soft now, I'll tell you like I did

1255
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:48,960
Speaker 1: one of mine. I said, this is what happened. I'm

1256
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:51,439
Speaker 1: really trying to be this new person. God made me

1257
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:54,280
Speaker 1: on this boat this year, and but the old meet

1258
01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:59,000
Speaker 1: keeps creeping back around. Dog, he talked all the time.

1259
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 1: I will see go somewhere and shut the hell up.

1260
01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:11,120
Speaker 1: You know, Tommy, Man, it's hard because in your house

1261
01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:15,559
Speaker 1: you can set rules and parameters, right, and so just

1262
01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:18,479
Speaker 1: pull the young dude over to the side and just say, listen, man,

1263
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:20,960
Speaker 1: I got rules in my house, and you have to

1264
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:24,600
Speaker 1: be respectful of my house. Don't don't don't come in

1265
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:29,240
Speaker 1: my house handling my daughter. That's you can say that

1266
01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 1: because it's your house and a man, don't don't be

1267
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:34,040
Speaker 1: over the hug. You know nobody when you and missed

1268
01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:36,000
Speaker 1: my house house. And that's a good message to have

1269
01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:39,920
Speaker 1: out because after that dog, it's out your hands. Now.

1270
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:42,800
Speaker 1: What they do outside the house, it's not because you're

1271
01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 1: not letting them do it in the house. That's what

1272
01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:47,920
Speaker 1: people have misconception of. They think that in parenting, if

1273
01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:49,679
Speaker 1: you don't allow them to do it in the house

1274
01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:52,360
Speaker 1: when they get out the house, if you don't let

1275
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:53,639
Speaker 1: them do it in the house when they get out

1276
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:55,479
Speaker 1: the house, they're gonna do it. No, they're gonna do

1277
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:58,000
Speaker 1: it any damn way. Right. You know, you got people

1278
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:00,400
Speaker 1: talking about I let my kids drink and some weed

1279
01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:01,720
Speaker 1: in the house. That way. They ain't out in the

1280
01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:05,799
Speaker 1: streets drinking. They're smoking, Yes they are. If they're drinking

1281
01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:08,040
Speaker 1: a smoking weed in your house, they drinking a smoking

1282
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:10,840
Speaker 1: weed on the street. You bu a fool to allow

1283
01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:13,040
Speaker 1: it to happen in your house. You gotta have some

1284
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:16,920
Speaker 1: type of rules, man, to give them Pauls for thought

1285
01:23:17,240 --> 01:23:19,880
Speaker 1: when they go out the house. Just Paul's for thought.

1286
01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:23,160
Speaker 1: You're not gonna stop. All right, coming up our last

1287
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:26,920
Speaker 1: break of the day and some closing remarks from the

1288
01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:31,400
Speaker 1: very wise and very talented too Steve Harvey. Right after

1289
01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:53,240
Speaker 1: this you're listening to all right, here we go, last

1290
01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:59,800
Speaker 1: break of the day, and um, Steve, yeah, you're this

1291
01:23:59,880 --> 01:24:01,559
Speaker 1: is the time you get kind of quiet and in

1292
01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:05,080
Speaker 1: your pensive moment because it's almost time for your closing remarks.

1293
01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:10,880
Speaker 1: But it's been a good day, right, it's an it's

1294
01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:13,400
Speaker 1: good you know these closing remarks of late man, I

1295
01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:16,599
Speaker 1: just want to kind of explain it to everybody what

1296
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:20,600
Speaker 1: I've decided to do. Is uh. Just share with you

1297
01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:24,920
Speaker 1: some experiences that I've gained uh and and a lot

1298
01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:28,680
Speaker 1: of it has to do with spirituality. Now let me

1299
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 1: let me just start by saying this. I'm not a

1300
01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:38,599
Speaker 1: very religious person per se. Uh. I think I'm really

1301
01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:44,599
Speaker 1: a spiritual person, but religious it kind of comes with

1302
01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 1: a different connotation. I don't claim to be perfect. It

1303
01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:53,240
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me what church you go to, what

1304
01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:57,400
Speaker 1: mosque you go to, what synagogue you go to. It

1305
01:24:57,439 --> 01:25:01,960
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. It's not my business. And I've

1306
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:04,679
Speaker 1: chosen to be that way, and I think that God

1307
01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:08,200
Speaker 1: is okay with me being that way, because my message

1308
01:25:08,400 --> 01:25:12,400
Speaker 1: is to try to convince or to help people understand

1309
01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 1: that having a relationship with God is really cool. It's

1310
01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:21,760
Speaker 1: the relationship you want with God. Your choice of religion

1311
01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:25,320
Speaker 1: is none of my business. I have a lot of

1312
01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:30,040
Speaker 1: Muslim friends. I know some great Muslim people around the world.

1313
01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:32,800
Speaker 1: I know some great Christian people around the world. I

1314
01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 1: know great Catholics around the world. I know great Jewish

1315
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:41,799
Speaker 1: people producing whatever. I know some really really cool people.

1316
01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:45,960
Speaker 1: And I just decided that my mission is not to

1317
01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:50,439
Speaker 1: convince you to see it my way. My mission is

1318
01:25:50,439 --> 01:25:53,880
Speaker 1: to try to help you understand that having a relationship

1319
01:25:53,920 --> 01:26:02,120
Speaker 1: with God, it's critical for you. It's necessary serry for you.

1320
01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 1: You know, I posted something the other day on my

1321
01:26:05,439 --> 01:26:08,600
Speaker 1: Instagram and there was a picture of a warrior with

1322
01:26:08,720 --> 01:26:11,960
Speaker 1: his head bent and he was on his knee and

1323
01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:14,200
Speaker 1: he had a sword in his hand and a shield.

1324
01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:20,080
Speaker 1: And on this Instagram post I posted it, and if

1325
01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:22,040
Speaker 1: you go on my Instagram you could see it from

1326
01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:25,240
Speaker 1: yesterday and this man is on his knees with his

1327
01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:28,280
Speaker 1: head bowed, with his sword in his hand and armor

1328
01:26:28,320 --> 01:26:31,479
Speaker 1: and shield on. And he said, the devil saw me

1329
01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:36,800
Speaker 1: with my head down and thought he'd won until I said,

1330
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:40,519
Speaker 1: a man, So what the paint was saying, is my

1331
01:26:40,560 --> 01:26:44,639
Speaker 1: head ain't down. I'm actually praying. And so after I

1332
01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:47,479
Speaker 1: sent that, you know, I was just reading the comments,

1333
01:26:47,600 --> 01:26:51,400
Speaker 1: which which I know better. But the second comment and

1334
01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:56,479
Speaker 1: the capture under it was prayer works. The second comment

1335
01:26:56,680 --> 01:27:02,479
Speaker 1: under their third comment was no, it don't. And you

1336
01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:06,200
Speaker 1: just go, wow, wait a minute, man, It don't matter

1337
01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:10,960
Speaker 1: what you say. Some people gonna they just dared to counter.

1338
01:27:11,560 --> 01:27:13,800
Speaker 1: But I don't do it for those people anymore. I

1339
01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:15,639
Speaker 1: do it for those people who trying to get it.

1340
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,960
Speaker 1: And if you're trying to get a relationship with God.

1341
01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:21,760
Speaker 1: It's important for you to understand something. You know what,

1342
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:24,760
Speaker 1: you gotta understand something. Let me sprain to you what

1343
01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:27,360
Speaker 1: I learned about favor, because my life has a lot

1344
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:30,120
Speaker 1: of favor on it. But I know a lot of

1345
01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:33,360
Speaker 1: people who got favor on their life. Somebody told me

1346
01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:38,280
Speaker 1: one time, favor ain't fair. Favor is not fair. If

1347
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:42,200
Speaker 1: favor was fairly given out, if it was favor was

1348
01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:45,639
Speaker 1: giving out family, none of us would get it. Oh,

1349
01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:50,720
Speaker 1: favor ain't fair because if favor was given out to

1350
01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:53,960
Speaker 1: the just or the righteous, if that's how fair was

1351
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:58,920
Speaker 1: passed out, would none of us get it. Favor ain't fair.

1352
01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:01,519
Speaker 1: That's why you can look COVID somebody's life and you

1353
01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:03,400
Speaker 1: can judge them and say, well, they ain't all this,

1354
01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:05,960
Speaker 1: but they got this. That's because favor ain't fair. But

1355
01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:08,400
Speaker 1: let me show you what what favor do. Do you

1356
01:28:08,439 --> 01:28:10,920
Speaker 1: know how much favor Gods give to you? To show

1357
01:28:10,920 --> 01:28:14,160
Speaker 1: you that favor ain't fair, watch this hill. Have you

1358
01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:16,599
Speaker 1: ever woke up in the morning and didn't thank God

1359
01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:19,760
Speaker 1: for waking you up in the morning, but he woke

1360
01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:23,200
Speaker 1: you up anyway? That was favor. Let me ask you

1361
01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:25,760
Speaker 1: a question. Because I hardly ever do this when I

1362
01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:29,240
Speaker 1: lay down at night, I have never I don't recall

1363
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:32,680
Speaker 1: asking God to wake me up in the morning. But

1364
01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:35,880
Speaker 1: you know what he did for sixty two years, he

1365
01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:38,760
Speaker 1: didn't woke me up in the morning. You know what

1366
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:42,559
Speaker 1: that was. That was some favor. Favor ain't fail because

1367
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,840
Speaker 1: guess what, I ain't even asked to be awaken. I

1368
01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:48,720
Speaker 1: have left the house without thinking him for waking me up.

1369
01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:52,559
Speaker 1: But he keep waking me up, and he keep laying

1370
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,320
Speaker 1: me down to sleep, and he keep giving me another chance,

1371
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:58,960
Speaker 1: and he keeps me alive when it seems like I

1372
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:01,880
Speaker 1: should have been gone. He holds me when I feel

1373
01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 1: so alone. He corrects mistakes that I've made, on decisions

1374
01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:09,920
Speaker 1: I've made. He's correcting him from me. You know what

1375
01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:14,639
Speaker 1: that was, y'all? That was favor. Every time you take

1376
01:29:14,640 --> 01:29:18,040
Speaker 1: a breath that you have no control over, can I

1377
01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 1: tell you something that's favor? That's why you you hear

1378
01:29:24,439 --> 01:29:28,479
Speaker 1: old people talk about grace and favor, and old people say,

1379
01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 1: all I want is a little more grace, because great,

1380
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:37,759
Speaker 1: you can't earn grace, you can't earn favor. It's just given.

1381
01:29:39,360 --> 01:29:43,080
Speaker 1: Favor is given to the just Favor is given to

1382
01:29:43,200 --> 01:29:47,760
Speaker 1: the unjust. Favor is given to the grateful. Favor is

1383
01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:51,120
Speaker 1: given to people that don't ever say thank you. All

1384
01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:55,439
Speaker 1: of us have benefited from his favor. What do you

1385
01:29:55,600 --> 01:30:01,440
Speaker 1: think would happen if you form the closer relationship with him? Well, tomorrow,

1386
01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,880
Speaker 1: I tell you what I happened, because it happened to me.

1387
01:30:05,080 --> 01:30:06,920
Speaker 1: I just want to share that with you. Y'all, have

1388
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:10,240
