1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: Strawberry buckle up, hold on tight, here we go. Subject Yes,

2
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: years and years of cheating. Dear Steve, Shirley and Tommy.

3
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: I'm a wife of fourteen years. I've been with my

4
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: husband for eighteen years. We were together as young teenagers.

5
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: He doesn't know that I've been seeing someone else since

6
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: before we got married. I love this other man simply

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: for the man that he is when we're together. His

8
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 1: focus is on me. He is he has unlimited he

9
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: has limitless sex drive is what she meant to say,

10
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: and pleases me every time. About a year ago, I

11
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: began a sexual relationship with another man who I care

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: very much for. I love his company, I love the sex,

13
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: and I feel safe when we are together. My husband

14
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: and I spend our time arguing, screaming, yelling, and slinging insults.

15
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: I know everyone will say that it's because of my cheating,

16
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: but my husband has no idea, never busted me. It's

17
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: more about his shortcomings. He hardly works. I pay mostly everything,

18
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: and I don't respect him for that. I love him,

19
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: but I don't like who he has become. Sometimes I

20
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: pray that he comes home after I am asleep so

21
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: I don't have to hear his voice. He failed me.

22
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 1: I believed in him, but in all these years he

23
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: has failed to deliver. His only true passion is smoking weed.

24
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: Am I wrong for running to the arms of two

25
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: very successful men? Well, morally, I know, take that all

26
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 1: in right. Morally, yes, of course you're wrong. I mean,

27
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: you know as well as I do that this is

28
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: adultery and that cheating is wrong. You know that, But

29
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: I mean, why did you write the letters? The question?

30
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: Is this like a true confession sort of thing that

31
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: you just wanted to get this off your chest? What

32
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: is really going on with you? And I'm quite frankly,

33
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: I'm not surprised that, um, your husband never caught you,

34
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: because usually women are just way smarter than men at cheating.

35
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: But but having said that, you are miserable in your

36
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: marriage and something else is going on. You're cheating with

37
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: not one, but two different men. I don't get that.

38
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: Why just haven't you filed for divorce? You're some sort

39
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: of serial cheater? I think, Um, I think you're sort

40
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: of some sort of really uh you know, I think

41
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: you enjoy the thrill of cheating, you know, of possibly

42
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: getting caught maybe or something. You need that excitement in

43
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,839
Speaker 1: your life, because honestly, I don't think you ever gave

44
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: your marriage a fighting chance because you admit that you

45
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 1: were cheating with this man before you even married him.

46
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: Now you're cheating not only on your husband, but you're

47
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: cheating on the man you started cheating with. So you're

48
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: just a serial cheater to me, Steve um years and

49
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: years of cheating. Let's start at the bottom on the letter.

50
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: Am I wrong for running to the arms of two

51
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: very successful men? Uh? You're asking us this. Am I wrong?

52
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: You already know? But the thing is you don't care though. Okay, then,

53
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: now let's go back up to the top. Shirley, Steve

54
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: and Tommy. You're the first person to ever put Tommy

55
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 1: in the Strawberry Letter. And I know why because he's

56
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: been talking a lot during the Strawberry Letters. And we

57
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: offer you are humblest apologies that. Now, let's get to

58
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: the letter. You've been with your you've been a wife

59
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: of fourteen years, you've been with your husband for eighteen.

60
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 1: You got together as teenagers. He doesn't know that I've

61
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: been seeing someone else since before we got married. Okay,

62
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: right there, right there, You would never ever committed to

63
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: this man or to the marriage. Now you got the

64
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: nerve in your letter, after you state your case as

65
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: to why you with these two men, you say in

66
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: the nerve of you to say he failed me. I

67
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: believed in him, but in all these years he has

68
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: failed to deliver. He has failed you. Right, You've never

69
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: really been in the man's wife, You've never been true

70
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: to him, you've never been committed to him. And then

71
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: you got the audacity to turn around and say that

72
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 1: this man has failed you, failed you. You're getting out

73
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: of him what you deserve, which is nothing. You'ren't putting

74
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: nothing in you. You've been getting a lot put in you,

75
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: but you ain't put nothing in. Oh you're a trip lady.

76
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: You man because he's smoking weed. You ain't here. I

77
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: just something watching watching cartoons. You ain't here. We'll be

78
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: back with more of Steve's response to the Strawberry Letter.

79
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: But Steve, come on, finished with your response to part

80
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: two of today's Strawberry Letter. Let's have it right now.

81
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: You know, uh, this woman right here surely says it's

82
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: just a chronic cheatah, and that's what she is. I

83
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 1: don't care. See. One of the things we were discussing

84
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: off the air was, uh, she's been seeing this man

85
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: since before they got married. She says, I love this

86
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: man simply for the man that he is. When we're together,

87
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: his focus is one on me. He has unlimitless sex

88
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: drive and pleases me every time. Okay. Then the question was, well,

89
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: why didn't she marry him then the other because then

90
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: guess what if she didn't married him, she would still

91
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: be seeing someone else. Let me explain something to you.

92
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: If you have a husband and you're cheating on him

93
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: with someone since you were married, and your description of

94
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: this other man is that when we're together, his focus

95
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: is on me. He has unlimitless sex drive and pleases

96
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: me every time. Okay, that you would think was the ultimate.

97
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: Right after that, she goes, about a year ago, I

98
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: began a sexual relationship with another man for what you

99
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: just said. He was a man who is unlimitless and

100
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: pleases you every time you turn around and go get

101
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: another man. You're not just a chada you're freaking away

102
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: for you? Just what's wrong with you? Enough? Why don't

103
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: you sit your hot trash tailed down somewhere. Just thirsty,

104
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: Just a big old thirsty band. There's nothing worse than

105
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: an old thirsty chick. You're just thing you see. You

106
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: got to drink. That's her just sits your tail down somewhere.

107
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: Do you have children? She didn't say that, but does she?

108
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: She probably does after fourteen years of marriage. Now there's

109
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: other man who I care for very much, love his company.

110
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: She would love the sex and I feel feel safe

111
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: when he together. Oh he's just great, big old man dingo,

112
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: big old slave level. If she did have children, who

113
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: would the daddy be? Though she ain't got that kind

114
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: of time. It ain't the dope smoke. Don't you just
