10
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, y'all dig me now, one and

11
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: only Steve Harvey got a radio show man. Is God

12
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: good to me? Unbelievable? Yeah, it is. And I can

13
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: only attribute it to one thing. It's just been a

14
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: turnaround in my life. It's it's been me finally making

15
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: a decision to see what all God has for me,

16
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: but at the same time trying to be more God

17
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: wants me to be instead of more of what I

18
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: want to be. That's the trade off. You know, you

19
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: gotta do something now, you know you know you want

20
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: God's blessings. You gotta be willing to do something on

21
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: his behalf. Now I'm not saying I got it right

22
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: right now, because man, I just don't. I'm just being

23
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: real with you. I don't. I don't have it all

24
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: together by any stretch of imagination. I'm trying to get

25
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: better in several areas. I'm praying about it. I'm working

26
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: on it. But you know, it's a process, and I've

27
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: I've grown to accept the process. But I'm improving in

28
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: a lot of areas from day to day. But I'll

29
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: tell you what, man, my success all is going on

30
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: with me I can only attribute to this turnaround. And

31
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: the turnaround was simple. I turned around and started looking

32
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: at God. That was a simple move, man. I just

33
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: turned around and started looking at him, and I was going, Okay,

34
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: I get it. Now, you created me. You're the creator.

35
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: You have a purpose for me. I understand that. Now.

36
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: Now let me just walk in that purpose and let

37
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: me get to doing that purpose. Now, my purpose and

38
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: your purpose and their purpose and anybody's perfect purpose could

39
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: be different, and the way you go about the purpose

40
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: can be different. And that's the part that I've really

41
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: grown up to. I've opened up my mind to understanding

42
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: that everybody's different, nobody's quite the same, and that is

43
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: not my right or position to judge, but to be

44
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: of a forgiving spirit and understand and forgive those as

45
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: I ask God to forgive me. See that's the key.

46
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: That's the key, y'all. So when you out here and

47
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: you stuck on this unforgiveness, understand in the large prayer

48
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: as a segment that says, forgive us our trust passes

49
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: as we forgive those who trust pass against us. There's

50
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: another verges says forgive us our debts, as we forgive

51
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: our debt us. It's two different versions, but either one

52
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: it means the exact same thing. It means simply this

53
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: that you are asking God to forgive yours like you

54
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: forgive others. Forgive us our trust passes as we forgive

55
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: those who trust pass against us. When I cross the

56
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: line with you, God handle me the way I handle

57
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: people when they cross the line with me. You feel

58
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: what I'm saying to you, See, you understand that. That's

59
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: the breakdown of it. Best way I can give it

60
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: to you. Forgive us our trust passes as we forgive

61
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 1: those who trust pass against us. Forgive me God for

62
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: stepping over the line, like I forgive those that step

63
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: over the line on me. That's the hard part. Man.

64
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: That's the part man, I've really been working on. I've

65
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: been really trying to get that together. And so I've

66
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: learned forgiveness a lot better over the past five years

67
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: than I have before. And it's paid off. I can't

68
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: tell you how it was paid off, because now God's

69
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: mercy and grace is all over me, because I've learned

70
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: to become more graceful. Now I ain't graceful like him,

71
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: I ain't merciful like him, but I've learned to become

72
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: more more graceful, more merciful, because man, I can't live

73
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: my life like that. I just got sick of me. Man,

74
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 1: you're mad at me now I'm mad at you. You

75
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: hate on me, Now I'm gonna hate on you. I

76
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: ain't got time for that. Man. Love got you. Look here,

77
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: you got somewhere to go. Hate take up time. It's

78
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: time consuming. Hating Trying to seek revenge, it's time consuming,

79
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: take up way too much of your time to seek

80
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: revenge when vengeance ain't really yours. That's another one. Vengeance

81
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: is mine, say if the Lord it ain't yours. So

82
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: now when you go to seek it to take it out,

83
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: guess what you're doing you're doing something now. Man, Now

84
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: you off in the area that you've got no business

85
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: being in, and instead of steady climbing your ladder like

86
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 1: you're supposed to, you didn't take out time for vengeance

87
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: to hate. I'm a hater. I'm gonna be a blogger.

88
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm a blog about so and so. When you're blogging

89
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: about somebody, and most of these people you don't even

90
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: know when you're blogging about somebody what you're doing, what

91
00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: you're hating. It takes time to hate. Man. I just decided, Man,

92
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: I gotta take all my time and instead of have

93
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: doing time and being active, I got to be proactive.

94
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: See some people get that confused, being active and being proactive.

95
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: Pro is positive. Pro means to move forward. You know,

96
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: if you put pro in front of most words, it's

97
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: a positive influence. You know, does the pros and the cons.

98
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: The pros is the good side, the cons is what

99
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: can go wrong the bad side. You know, if you're active,

100
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: that's one thing, But if you're proactive, you're going forward

101
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: in a positive direction. When you become a pro that

102
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: means you the best of the best at whatever it

103
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: is you chosen to be. I'm a pro so somehow,

104
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: And I know English teacher grammatical god, the word pro

105
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: a lot of times when you put it in front

106
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: of something means positiveness. So now a lot of people

107
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: think that if you just active something all to happen. Well,

108
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm doing something, and that's what happens. Man, We just

109
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: find ourselves doing a lot of busy work that really

110
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: ain't bout nothing, and it ain't going no where. It

111
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: ain't got no direction or no purpose because we haven't

112
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: tried to find out the direction or purpose. So you

113
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: wake up and you and your wheels are spinning. You

114
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,040

115
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: but you're just going in the same spot. You understand

116
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: that's cause you're just out here being active instead of proactive.

117
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: Why don't you get God in your life. Why don't

118
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: you turn and face your creative and find out how

119
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,160

120
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: move yourself forward. How you can get your life off

Speaker 1: for him. See the whole key man, the whole kids.

Speaker 1: to give God something to bless bless me God, and

00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: in the eighties, including his number one duet with Patty

454
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: Austin baby come to Me, Oh Lord, such great music. Yeah,

455
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: one hundred ways and just once. He also won a

456
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,959
Speaker 1: Grammy for Yama Be There, his duet with Michael McDonald,

457
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: and another four one hundred ways. He couldn't be denied

458
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: with that one. James Ingram, of course, worked closely with

459
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: Quincy Jones over the years, recording and writing hits. For instance,

460
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: he and Q co wrote Michael Jackson's pyt Yeah, Young Thing, Yeah, Legend, Steve,

461
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: We're losing all the great ones, man. You know, man,

462
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: it's like it's it's really sad because music. Um, you know,

463
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: I had Shaka Khan on the show the other day

464
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: and I asked Shaka Khan. I said, Shaka, what's the

465
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: big difference between artists of yesterday in your era and

466
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: artists today? And she, without hesitation, she said, it's talent.

467
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: Oh wow. And it's and I think, because you know

468
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: what she's saying is she's saying it from this standpoint.

469
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: It's not to saying that these artists today aren't talent,

470
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 1: because there are something I can go down the list

471
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: of some bad people out there. Beyonce is the Michael

472
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: Jackson of She's a queen of partner. Yeah, she's She's

473
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: the best female performer I've ever seen in my life.

474
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 1: I've seen all of them. Wow, I've seen them all.

475
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: You know. I never saw Ella Fitzgerald perform. I heard her,

476
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: but and I've heard Whitney's voice. Whitney's voice is the

477
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: best I've ever heard. But total performance, it's Beyonce. I've

478
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: never seen that. There are some voices out there, you know,

479
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: or some stylis you know, but of yesterday, what she

480
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: was saying was it was so many it was nothing

481
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: for you to do. But saying you know it was

482
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: no you know, rap wing out then, you know, you

483
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: had to be you had to be able to sing though.

484
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 1: And even when rap first called on, it was still

485
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: R and B out there. We still had adult contemporary

486
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: music and the talent level was just outstanding. And that's

487
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: what it is today. Man, It's just you've got to

488

501
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. Miss Anne trip, Thanks everybody. Yes, this

502
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: is an trip with the news. The weather is still

503
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 1: the big story in many parts of the country this morning.

504
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 1: In fact, more than seventy five percent of the US

505
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: population is going to face subzero temperatures subzero this week

506
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,240
Speaker 1: due to something called a polar vortex, which is pushing

507
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: frigid air south from the North Pole. Now in the

508
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: Midwest they're really getting at The frozen air is being

509
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: blamed for the deaths of at least three people so

510
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: far in Chicago. Later today, the high is expected to

511
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:33,280
Speaker 1: be only fifteen degrees below zero. That's the high temperature

512
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: ats believe it or not, more cold than it is

513
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 1: in Antarctica right now. Heavy snow is in certain parts,

514
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 1: so it has caused highway up pile ups and closures.

515
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: Of course, thousands of airline flights have been canceled all

516
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 1: over the country. It's so cold that mail delivery has

517
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 1: been canceled in at least six states. Chicago police say

518
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,399
Speaker 1: they're investigating what looks like to have been a hate

519
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: crime committed against Empire star Jesse Smollett. Authorities say that Smalllett,

520
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,720
Speaker 1: who is gay, was attacked by two men yelling rachel

521
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: and homophobic slurs at him. They wrapped a rope around

522
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 1: his neck, he says. The sixty thirty six year old

523
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: actor also says they threw some unknown substance on him

524
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: and then started beating him. Jesse small is reportedly in

525
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 1: good condition, thank good, and they're looking for those guys.

526
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: California Democratic Senator Kamala Harris was in Ohio earlier this

527
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 1: week after announcing her intention run for president. The senator

528
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,439
Speaker 1: laid out her positions on the issues. For instance, Harris

529
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 1: says she will not vote for a southern border wall

530
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: even though the Republicans are in charge of the Senate,

531
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 1: and she addressed the Dream Act or DACA recipients, we

532
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 1: should not be trading on your life for the sake

533
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: of the political games that this president is playing and

534
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: trying to vilify young people like you who are doing

535
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: nothing except being productive and believing in and living the

536
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 1: American dream. Harris is the daughter of a Jamaican father

537
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 1: and an East Indian mother, and she says she supports

538
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: medicare for all and dealing effectively with climate change. Her

539
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: critics claimed it as a prosecutor, her record was not

540
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 1: that progressive. Well, you see that stuff working out on

541
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: the campaign trail. Top officials in the nation's intelligence community

542
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: strongly disagree with President Trump's boasts about what he's been

543
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: able to accomplish with the North Koreans despite ongoing negotiations.

544
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: The Director of National Intelligence says that Kim John Ill

545
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: does not appear willing to completely dismantle its nuclear program,

546
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: which is something that Donald Trump has been saying. Oh yes,

547
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: he's been successful in getting the folks at Apples say

548
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 1: they've disabled the group of chat and malfunction problems on FaceTime.

549
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: It was a software glitch that allowed calls to activate

550
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 1: other person's microphones remotely, even if they didn't answer the calls.

551
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: And ending today, unfortune was said. And shocking news. Yes

552
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 1: you heard Shirley and Steven, I'm talking about a Grammy

553
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: Award winning singer James Ingram has died at age sixty six,

554
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 1: reportedly of brain cancer. James Ingram was nominated for several

555
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,760
Speaker 1: Grammys and Oscars. He won two Grammys, one for Yamo

556
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: Be There with Michael Donald McDonald and for this one Again.

557
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: Singer James Ingram did at age sixty six. He will

558
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,919
Speaker 1: be missed. Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

559
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 1: You're listening, Jesse, Smalalette and the rest of the Empire

560
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:08,760
Speaker 1: cast will have armed security as production of the show continues. Jesse,

561
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 1: as we all heard on yesterday, was hospitalized after he

562
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: suffered a horrific homophobic and racist attack. This is also

563
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: according to TMZ. Jesse was brutally attacked by two men

564
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: who beat him up, put his head in a noose

565
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 1: and screamed, this is maga country. You know what magastands

566
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:32,359
Speaker 1: for Make America great again. This according to reports, Jesse

567
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: arrived in Chicago from New York late on Monday and

568
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: around two am, he said he was hungry and he

569
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: went to a subway to get something to eat, to

570
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 1: get a sandwich, when shortly after that he walked out

571
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: and on his way home, someone yelled, aren't you that

572
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: F word? Empire? N word. The two men, both white

573
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 1: and wearing ski masks, viciously attacked Jesse as he fought back,

574
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: but they beat him badly and fractured a rib. They

575
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: put a rope around his neck, poured bleach on him,

576
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: and as they left, they yelled, this is Maga country again.

577
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:15,320
Speaker 1: Make America great again. They're looking for him. Yeah, the

578
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: President needs to say something, denounce what happened. Does yeh,

579
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 1: he's not, but he should. I don't expect him to

580
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 1: breathe a word about this. And the reason I don't

581
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: think he's gonna breathe a word about it is because

582
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: he created those hats. Yeah, there are people who put

583
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:38,240
Speaker 1: on those hats because make America great Again symbols symbolizers

584
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: to them make They want to go back to a

585
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: period when they identify America as great again. That's why

586
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: when I see a black person with that hat on,

587
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm completely shocked because I'm trying to look at your

588
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: black ass and try to figure out what period in

589
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 1: the past you thought is we are to go back

590
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: to it again? Where what you what sixties, seventies, fifties, eighties,

591
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: where you're trying to get back to that was so

592
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 1: great for us. That startles me when I see black

593
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 1: people with that hat on. But the white groups that

594
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,399
Speaker 1: wear the hat that are racist. Now, everybody that has

595
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: the hat on is not a racist. It's not a

596
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 1: white supremacist hate group. Some people wear the hat because

597
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 1: they interpreted make America great again something else. I don't

598
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: see what that is, but they do. So you can't

599
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: lump people together because they got a red hat on

600
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: and call them a racist or a hate group. I

601
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 1: don't believe that to be true. But when you put

602
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: it on in the name of hat, then you're wearing

603
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: the hat because that's what it does for you. And

604
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 1: you got to look at the source where they had

605
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: come from. It came from the dude that's in the

606
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:52,479
Speaker 1: white up. Real Talk coming up at thirty four after

607
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 1: the hour, asked Steve, as we celebrate the tenth anniversary

608
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: of Acts Like a Lady, Think Like a Man. Oh,

609
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: show you that you're listening to show? All right, we're

610
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 1: celebrating the tenth anniversary of your book, Steve, Act Like

611
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: a Lady, Think Like a Man. I cannot believe it's

612
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: been ten years. I can't. Okay, God, yeah, yea. So

613
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 1: we're taking time now to ask Steve relationship questions from

614
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,240
Speaker 1: um from Steve HARVEYFM dot com. Now here's a question.

615
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,880
Speaker 1: It's rather long, so get ready. Here's a question submitted

616
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: from one of your loyal fans. Her name is Monica S.

617
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: She says, Hi, Steve, you were great with women and

618
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: how to understand how men really think and are. Here's

619
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: the new dilemma. Now that women are stronger, more successful,

620
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 1: and have a voice, many men feel less than or

621
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: not good enough to quote, get her or ask her out.

622
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: And I'm talking about many men. Can you do a

623
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: show or start a movement for men on how to

624
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 1: move with the cycle and not be intimidated. For today's

625
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: woman to up their game as we women are to

626
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: rise to the occasion. I have this conversation with my

627
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: twenty two year old often So this is from Monica

628
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: s Steve Well. I think let me let me let

629
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: me start it by saying this, first of all, ladies.

630
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 1: The the intimidation that men are feeling today, it's because

631
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: when you, as women, raise your standards, when you raise

632
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: the bar, that's a higher jump than we have to make.

633
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 1: And it's not that it's men are intimidated to jump

634
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 1: that high. It's just that they've never been required to

635
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 1: in the past. So you've created a new dilemma. And

636
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: you're absolutely correct, that is a new dilemma that's created.

637
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: But it's a great new dilemma because men will respond accordingly.

638
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,760
Speaker 1: It'll take them a minute, but they're gonna find out okay,

639
00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: oh okay, So they didn't pull it together, Oh they

640
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 1: got their self esteem together. Oh, they ain't falling for

641
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: this trick no more. And then a man just has

642
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 1: to make the adjustment that, okay, cool, this one's not

643
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: for games. And what you've actually done is that you've

644
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: you've eliminated the pretenders, so to speak. So the men

645
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 1: that aren't about to rise up to climb over your bar,

646
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: they've been knocked out. And it's not by intimidation. They

647
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: really just wouldn't go. They're not at your level? So

648
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: what you want? I'm not gonna ask you to dumb

649
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 1: it down. But if a guy's not willing to step

650
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: over the bar you've created, it's not that he's intimidated.

651
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 1: He just don't qualify. Every man can't qualify for you.

652
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, And you shouldn't give every man a chance

653
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,399
Speaker 1: with you. It ain't no damn you know. This ain't

654
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,399
Speaker 1: no time to be man. I give everybody this shot

655
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 1: to be fair to say what this is that nice?

656
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 1: So what should she do? Should she move in different

657
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 1: circles getting well? You know, as you elevate your game,

658
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: you know, the game got to be exposed to different places.

659
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 1: You know. It's other dating sites other than swipe right,

660
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 1: swipe left. It's things going on other than bumble. It's

661
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,360
Speaker 1: stuff out there that you know, elite datas you know.

662
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's a lot of stuff out there

663
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: that cost a little bit more to get one, and

664
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,359
Speaker 1: I don't know them all. But there's other places to meet.

665
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: There's places you can go and associate that brings on

666
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: a different client tale of people. But if you keep

667
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: hanging around the same people, you go the same church,

668
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 1: the same dude coming in every s They a whole

669
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: lot of new dudes coming in. So you're saying she's

670
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: got to change her surroundings, do some different things. Yeah,

671
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: of course that's who she wants to attract. If you've elevated,

672
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: you got to get where at. But for the time being,

673
00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: thought he wants to just don't nobody the one she

837
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:30,240
Speaker 1: have to take the good with the bad. Dear Stephen Shirley,

838
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: I need some advice on a different kind of double

839
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 1: standard with men and women. Mike's boyfriend has a lot

840
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:39,280
Speaker 1: of flaws, and I overlooked them in the beginning because

841
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,399
Speaker 1: I was really into him and wanted things to work out.

842
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: For example, when we met, he told me he lived

843
00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 1: downtown in a brownstone, So a few weeks later I

844
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 1: went over to his place. I pulled up and he

845
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 1: escorted me in through the basement door and told me

846
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 1: he hangs out down there most of the time. So

847
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,320
Speaker 1: we started kissing and may came out on the couch

848
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: and he had managed to take off all my clothes

849
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 1: and most of his. When someone knocked on the door.

850
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,360
Speaker 1: He threw a blanket over me and went to answer

851
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: the door. It was a woman at the door. He

852
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 1: said it was his ex wife and she just stopped

853
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 1: in to say hi. Then he asked me if I

854
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: wanted to meet her. I was sitting there naked, mind you.

855
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,280
Speaker 1: She went away, and he told me that he rents

856
00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 1: a room in the basement from her, but she rarely

857
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: comes down there. I know I should have left him

858
00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 1: alone then, but I didn't. Fast forward to when we

859
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,560
Speaker 1: finally had sex for the first time, this man had

860
00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 1: the nerve to joke about me having a squishy stomach,

861
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,320
Speaker 1: and he told me that I could have done a

862
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:51,880
Speaker 1: better job at trimming the hedges. Wow, if you know

863
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,319
Speaker 1: what I mean, that was it. I cursed him out

864
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,880
Speaker 1: and told him he's a borderline bum that lived with

865
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,800
Speaker 1: his ex and he has a big stomach and a

866
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 1: little bitty everything else. Since then, he has not spoken

867
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 1: to me. I did not mean to hurt him. I

868
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:11,879
Speaker 1: just wanted him to understand that he's not perfect either.

869
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 1: Why do women always have to take the good with

870
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: the bad, but men want us to be perfect and flawless.

871
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 1: What can I do to get this man back? Please?

872
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 1: Help girl get him back. You gotta run away and

873
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: keep running. Okay, Why would you want to get back

874
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,480
Speaker 1: with a man who lives in the basement of his

875
00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:38,040
Speaker 1: ex wife's brownstone. I don't understand. And what is she

876
00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 1: just stopping by to say hi for? Is this making

877
00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 1: sense to anyone? Anybody out of here? Go? Okay, I

878
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,560
Speaker 1: mean my answer is gonna be really short. I'm almost done. Okay,

879
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 1: not only that, I mean the man insulted you twice. Okay,

880
00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: you don't have to take this from anyone. He said

881
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:00,799
Speaker 1: you had a squishy stomach and all of that. Girl.

882
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: Please get yourself esteem up and listen to your gut

883
00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 1: when it tells you to leave and leave him alone. Please. Yeah,

884
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:13,040
Speaker 1: you already cursed and listen to your gut. Literally, somebody said,

885
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,799
Speaker 1: come on, you already cursed him out and called him

886
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 1: a bum. Okay, level up, leave him alone? Okay, you

887
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:26,439
Speaker 1: could do better. You could do better, Steve Hell Yeah,

888
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,319
Speaker 1: just probably gonna be my favorite letter. How many minutes

889
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 1: I got before we go to break? Just give me

890
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,879
Speaker 1: an ideal? You got about five? Good? Yeah? Good money?

891
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:43,440
Speaker 1: Here we go. Your ex boyfriend has a lot of flaws,

892
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,279
Speaker 1: and you overlooked him in the beginning because you was

893
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,879
Speaker 1: into him and you won't step to work. So first

894
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,840
Speaker 1: of all, he told you he lived downtown in a brownstone.

895
00:56:55,960 --> 00:57:00,720
Speaker 1: What a sad Jo live downtown in a brown stough.

896
00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:04,640
Speaker 1: So you go over to his place. You pull up.

897
00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 1: This didn't get shaken to you. He escorts you in

898
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 1: through the basement. Dough told you he hang out down

899
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 1: there most of the time. So right after you get

900
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 1: on there called this grain hang out, y'all star kissing

901
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 1: here what the letter took a turn and making out

902
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:31,000
Speaker 1: on the couch and hit the line in my favorite line.

903
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:35,040
Speaker 1: And he hadn't managed to take off all my clothes

904
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: and most of his. He managed that and more. Damn

905
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:51,880
Speaker 1: they're all in his so y'all almost completely naked. Then

906
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: somebody knocks on the door. He threw a blanket over

907
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 1: me and went to answer the dough. This ain't the

908
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 1: time to go to the dough if I'm almost naked.

909
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 1: I never stopped for that. Yeah, even in my old house,

910
00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 1: the kid joy from the dough. Time, get your assay.

911
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm not fit to throw no blanket over and go

912
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 1: to this dough. Yeah this, I don't need no blanket.

913
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 1: I'm busy. Go to the door, answer the dough and

914
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 1: it's a woman at the dough. Now he threw a

915
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 1: blanket over you. He almost naked. I don't know if

916
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:47,000
Speaker 1: he went to the door with a sock on and

917
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: a hoodie, so he had to do with a sock

918
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 1: and a hoodie, just naked from the waist down, with

919
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 1: just one sock and a hood It was a woman

920
00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 1: at the dough. He came back and told you it

921
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 1: was his ex wife, and she stopped by to say hi.

922
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:14,040
Speaker 1: Then he asked me if I wanted to meet him. Hey,

923
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:18,760
Speaker 1: you won't meet him. She right outside the dough. She

924
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:22,480
Speaker 1: know you ain't him. I know you naked, but you're

925
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:27,240
Speaker 1: sitting under this blanket. I was sitting there naked. She

926
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 1: went away, and he told me that he rents a

927
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:34,560
Speaker 1: room in the basement from her, but she rarely comes

928
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 1: down there. I know I should have left him alone then,

929
00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 1: but I didn't. Fast forward, we finally had sex for

930
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 1: the first time. Well, I know you couldn't at that time. No,

931
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 1: not with that hoodie on in that one socket and

932
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,160
Speaker 1: his wife to him. It's kind of hard to be

933
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 1: in the mood after that, ain't it. This man had

934
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 1: the nerve to joke about me having a squashy stomach,

935
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 1: and he told me I could have done him on

936
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:07,360
Speaker 1: a better job trimming the head and if you know

937
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:13,840
Speaker 1: what I mean. Well, well, that's was it. You cussed

01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,320
Speaker 1: with his ex, and he got a big stomach and

940
01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 1: a little bit of everything else. Since then, he ain't

941
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 1: spoken to me. Well, when we come back, we're gonna

942
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:26,560

980
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:50,479
Speaker 1: joke about me having a squishy stomach. Then he told

987
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 1: mean to hurt him. But let's let's go with what

Speaker 1: you said to him that you didn't mean to hurt him.

989
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:21,960

992
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:32,960
Speaker 1: gonna hurt me. You live with your ex wife. That

993
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:35,200

994
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 1: you're damn he got a big stomach. That would have

995
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:43,120

1007
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,280

Speaker 1: care of Miss Belt with her. Fans are upset. They

1104
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:28,400
Speaker 1: feel like maybe this woman is living off the lifestyle

1105
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 1: that you know, b Smith, this empire, that you know

1106
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 1: that's just right, and that he's being disrespectful for having

1107
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 1: this woman in the home with his wife. What about

1108
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,160
Speaker 1: your vows in sickness and in health, they're saying, he

1109
01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:46,760
Speaker 1: seems to ignore the part about in sickness and in health.

1110
01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:51,400
Speaker 1: You know. Um, yeah, people are, they're very much torn

1111
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 1: with this situation. Look, he just didn't want to be

1112
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:57,720
Speaker 1: He wanted to bring it out in the open. Well, look,

1113
01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 1: I can't judge. Yeah, it's not fair for me to

1114
01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:05,960
Speaker 1: sit in judgment of another person's situation when I haven't

1115
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:13,960
Speaker 1: been faced with that exact member. Man, I haven't. The

1116
01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 1: last time I talked to There's nothing wrong. She was

1117
01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:18,760
Speaker 1: so healthy, full of life. Matter fact, we were at

1118
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,400
Speaker 1: a restaurant. We were at her restaurant. That was a

1119
01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:24,840
Speaker 1: long time ago, but I remember that, and I saw

1120
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:27,560
Speaker 1: at a place somewhere, and so she's always been this

1121
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:31,200
Speaker 1: really beautiful and vibrant person. So to see her suffer

1122
01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:34,040
Speaker 1: from this and to hear about it is shocking. Now.

1123
01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:38,160
Speaker 1: To his credit, he did come out with an explanation

1124
01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:44,000
Speaker 1: and said it, Uh if now here's depart If Bee's

1125
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 1: daughter is okay, well his daughter together step his daughter.

1126
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:55,840
Speaker 1: It's not her daughter, no, not her biological daughter. Now,

1127
01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:58,439
Speaker 1: so I'm assuming he met her while she was a

1128
01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:02,200
Speaker 1: caregiver for Bee. No, No, I'm not saying this woman

Speaker 1: what people are saying. It's not for me to judge.

1153
01:14:40,439 --> 01:14:43,200
Speaker 1: For him to come forward, he must have really resolved

1154
01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:49,600
Speaker 1: this in his mind. It's tough when your wife is

01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:05,759
Speaker 1: record cold in some parts of the country. And President

1160
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 1: Donald Trump jokes that we need global warming, but he

1161
01:15:09,600 --> 01:15:15,599
Speaker 1: said global whamming, and when he tweeted, you know, he's

1162
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:20,000
Speaker 1: challenged in certain areas. Yeah, in certain areas. Sorry, we'll

1163
01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 1: talk about it when we come back right after this.

1164
01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:26,040
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Stave Harvey Morning Show, and our

1165
01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:30,160
Speaker 1: deep freeze is blanketing the Midwest and Northeast this week,

1166
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:35,240
Speaker 1: sending temperatures plummeting below zero in many areas. President Donald

1167
01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:38,599
Speaker 1: Trump is using it as an opportunity to poke fun

1168
01:15:38,720 --> 01:15:43,919
Speaker 1: at the claims of global warning. Warming displaced polar vortex

1169
01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,720
Speaker 1: is dropping temperatures in the Midwest down to as low

1170
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:50,479
Speaker 1: as minus thirty degrees, with wind chills making it feel

1171
01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:54,320
Speaker 1: like it's minus sixty. Oh jeez, I do not miss home.

1172
01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:57,599
Speaker 1: I do not miss home, President Trump tweeted last night,

1173
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,960
Speaker 1: in the beautiful Midwest, wind chilled temperatures are reaching minus

1174
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:04,839
Speaker 1: sixty degrees, the coldest ever recorded. In coming days, expect

1175
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:09,360
Speaker 1: to get even colder. People can't last outside even for minutes.

1176
01:16:09,800 --> 01:16:13,639
Speaker 1: What the hell is going on with global warming? Please

1178
01:16:17,200 --> 01:16:20,879
Speaker 1: slammed by science and climate experts, who reminded the president

1179
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:26,040
Speaker 1: that global warming is what's causing extreme weather conditions. Also

1180
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:30,160
Speaker 1: FYI in the tweet, the President actually misspelled warming like

1181
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 1: I said, he typed whaming of global whamming or whatever. No, No,

Speaker 1: are so job a m engines? Yeah? No, are just

1188
01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:16,880
Speaker 1: Another related Donald Trump news he has accepted rescheduling his

1189
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:19,360
Speaker 1: speaking dates. Trump will now give the State of his

1190
01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:23,799
Speaker 1: Union on February fifth, after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi canceled

1191
01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:26,559
Speaker 1: the original date that was set for January twenty ninth

1192
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:30,120
Speaker 1: due to the government shutdown. Of course, Pelosi invited Trump

1193
01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 1: on the rescheduled date on Monday, and he accepted the offer. Meanwhile,

1194
01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:37,840
Speaker 1: Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen has agreed to speak in

1195
01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:42,640
Speaker 1: private um to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence

1196
01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:46,800
Speaker 1: on February eighth. He was originally set to testify in

1197
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:50,760
Speaker 1: an open session, but canceled last Wednesday after claiming that

1198
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:54,559
Speaker 1: his family was being threatened by mister Trump. Well, if

1199
01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,559
Speaker 1: you listen to what Trump was saying about his father

1200
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:03,560
Speaker 1: in law. And then Juliani came on on Cuomo and

1201
01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:06,559
Speaker 1: said some more stuff about maybe we need to look

1202
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:11,000

1254
01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:38,120
Speaker 1: of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this you're

1255
01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:42,400
Speaker 1: listening to. All right, There was an eye in the

1256
01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:45,640
Speaker 1: sky over Bill Cosby last week, and prison officials are

1257
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:49,479
Speaker 1: not too happy about this. Someone flew a drone over

1258
01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:52,960
Speaker 1: the Pennsylvania prison. Bill Cosby was being escorted through the

1259
01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:54,800
Speaker 1: yard at the time. You know, he does get an

1260
01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:58,680
Speaker 1: escort because of his blindness. The prison was immediately put

1261
01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:02,080
Speaker 1: on lockdown for an entire your day. Officials believe someone

1262
01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:04,519
Speaker 1: in the media was trying to get a shot of Cosby,

1263
01:22:04,760 --> 01:22:08,639
Speaker 1: but no pictures or videos have shown up online yet. Cosby,

1264
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:12,040
Speaker 1: of course, is joined three to ten years for sexual assault.

1265
01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 1: I didn't know when he walking through the yard. The

1266
01:22:15,240 --> 01:22:19,719
Speaker 1: probably someone they're telling because if they get that picture,

1267
01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:24,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna split it with the god. Yeah, doc. The contraband.

1268
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:29,479
Speaker 1: The majority of contraband is brought into prisons by gods. Right. Yeah,

1269
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 1: they got a lot of other ways. But guards are

1270
01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:36,240
Speaker 1: they're none of the most highest paid people in the world,

1271
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,519
Speaker 1: and you get caught, get caught in situation like if

1272
01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:42,400
Speaker 1: something that makes you just be cool with them. There's

1273
01:22:42,439 --> 01:22:45,200
Speaker 1: some cool people in prison, man. People don't understand that.

1274
01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:47,519
Speaker 1: And when I say that, how can you say they're

1275
01:22:47,520 --> 01:22:51,240
Speaker 1: cool people? With their criminals? They are really some good

1276
01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 1: people made bad judgment call and wind up in prison.

1277
01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:58,840
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about people who murdering and raping people.

1278
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:01,479
Speaker 1: You just the evil person. But this is a lot

1279
01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:04,840
Speaker 1: of people that the committed non violent crimes. It just

1280
01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:08,200
Speaker 1: got busted doing something they shouldn't have been doing. And

1281
01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:11,759
Speaker 1: they some really really cool people, man, who deserve another chance.

1282
01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 1: That victims have rights too, now, so yeah, you know,

1283
01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,360
Speaker 1: and another news, Steve, did you guys hear about this one?

1284
01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:26,240
Speaker 1: The FaceTime software flaw? Flaw that allows iPhone spying, a

1285
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,519
Speaker 1: security flaw in the face I've been talking about sothern

1286
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:32,240
Speaker 1: called me and showed me hot work. Oh he did? Really?

1287
01:23:33,320 --> 01:23:36,760
Speaker 1: Did you get it? What you mean? I mean? Did

1288
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:40,920
Speaker 1: you understand what he was saying? Work? Well, it allows

1289
01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:44,599
Speaker 1: you to secretly listen to an iPhone owner's conversations without

1290
01:23:44,680 --> 01:23:48,160
Speaker 1: their knowledge, and Apple has confirmed the bug. You better

1291
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,479
Speaker 1: believe they're working around the clock if you correct it

1292
01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:59,160
Speaker 1: old y'all, Sam Song androids Androids. They expect a software

1293
01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:02,560
Speaker 1: update sometimes before Friday of this week. The trick to

1294
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:06,200
Speaker 1: spying on your iPhone friend is to make a FaceTime

1295
01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:10,080
Speaker 1: video call. Okay, and while it's still ringing, you can

1296
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:13,519
Speaker 1: swipe up from the bottom of the screen and click

1297
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:17,840
Speaker 1: ad person, select your own phone number. You will be

1298
01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:21,120
Speaker 1: able to hear the microphone on the phone of the

1299
01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:25,000
Speaker 1: person you called, whether they take your FaceTime call or not.

1300
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:29,559
Speaker 1: That will break up a happy right. Yeah, that's deep though,

1301
01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:33,160
Speaker 1: big brothers. Yeah you can, Yeah, you can turn it

1302
01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:37,720
Speaker 1: off and then they can't do it up home. Get

1303
01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:42,760
Speaker 1: that software over right now, quit using it? You're awfully quiet, Steve,

1304
01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:47,400
Speaker 1: Are you scared now? I don't even know how to

1305
01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:50,439
Speaker 1: pick him? Wait before it was a book. He didn't

1306
01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:58,840
Speaker 1: answer our phone call, right, goodness, he didn't FaceTime. I

1337
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:27,640

1338
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 1: saying that these artists today aren't talented, because there are

1339
01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:32,880
Speaker 1: something I can go down the list of some bad

1340
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:39,439
Speaker 1: people out there. Beyonce is the Michael Jackson of She's

1341

1349
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:15,600
Speaker 1: was nothing for you to do. But saying, you know,

1350
01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:20,040
Speaker 1: it was no you know, rap wing out then you know,

1351
01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:21,439
Speaker 1: you had to be you had to be able to

1352
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:25,200
Speaker 1: sing Dolly. And even when rap first called on, it

1353
01:28:25,400 --> 01:28:27,920
Speaker 1: was still R and B out there. We still had

1354
01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:33,960
Speaker 1: adult contemporary music and the talent level was just outstanding.

1355
01:28:35,080 --> 01:28:39,040
Speaker 1: And that's what it is today. Man, It's just you've

1356
01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:43,200
Speaker 1: got to go every so often. Today they produced a

1357
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: single where you go, wow, there's Beyonce. Okay that girl

1358
01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:52,240
Speaker 1: A Dale can say, oh you know you look around,

1359
01:28:52,520 --> 01:28:55,479
Speaker 1: you know and you go okay, Now wait a minute.

1360
01:28:55,680 --> 01:29:00,519
Speaker 1: Christina Aguilara came flat out blow you know what I'm saying.

1361
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:07,680
Speaker 1: Vivian Green can say, let se can Blowsia Keys give

1362
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:11,799
Speaker 1: it to a Jil Scott. You know, but Jill Scott

1363
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 1: came out in two thousands. That was eighteen nineteen years.

1364
01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:23,400
Speaker 1: That's crazy. Yeah, so Shackle was back in the seventies. Yeah, yeah,

1365
01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:29,439
Speaker 1: you understand that era of singers you will never get again.

1366
01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:34,439
Speaker 1: I'm telling you you'll never get them again. Well the problem, yeah,

1367
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:38,360
Speaker 1: the great ones. Yeah, all right, Steve, coming up our

1368
01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:42,160
Speaker 1: last break of the day closing remarks. Okay, get ready people,

1369
01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:48,400
Speaker 1: right after this, you're listening. All right here we are

1370
01:29:48,600 --> 01:29:52,120
Speaker 1: last break of the day, Steve. I know you have

1371
01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:56,360
Speaker 1: some closing remarks for us today. What you got I mean, man, um,

1372
01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:02,599
Speaker 1: I've read some good books, man, Bishop Jake's books are

1373
01:30:02,680 --> 01:30:09,800
Speaker 1: basic instincts. Great book, man, just a great book. I really,

1374
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:13,080
Speaker 1: for the most part, only have the time to read

1375
01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:15,720
Speaker 1: certain types of books, and the types of books I

1376
01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:18,640
Speaker 1: usually choose to read the self help books, you know,

1377
01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:22,639
Speaker 1: books where I can improve myself. You know, that would

1378
01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:27,240
Speaker 1: include the Bible. But there are some books out there

1379
01:30:28,520 --> 01:30:32,439
Speaker 1: that I've written spiritually based that are very very helpful. Also.

1380
01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:35,599
Speaker 1: And Joel Osteen has a book. I think I told

1381
01:30:35,640 --> 01:30:37,360
Speaker 1: you a little bit about it earlier this week. The

1382
01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:42,639
Speaker 1: name of the book is next level thinking. Next level

1383
01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:46,240
Speaker 1: thinking says it all. Because let me explain something. I

1384
01:30:46,280 --> 01:30:49,360
Speaker 1: don't care who you are. If you want to get

1385
01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:52,479
Speaker 1: to the next level, if you don't want to stay

1386
01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:55,040
Speaker 1: where you are, if you want to elevate yourself and

1387
01:30:55,160 --> 01:30:57,880
Speaker 1: get to the next level, you're going to have to

1388
01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:04,360
Speaker 1: change your current thinking. See listen to me, y'all. All

1389
01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,720
Speaker 1: of us have thought ourselves to where we are now.

1390
01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:10,439
Speaker 1: We ain't got nobody else to blame. Oh, you can

1391
01:31:10,560 --> 01:31:13,160
Speaker 1: choose to do it that way. Well, if they hadn't

1392
01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:15,920
Speaker 1: done me wrong, if I hadn't lost my job, I

1393
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:20,439
Speaker 1: got all that. Things do happen in life. Admittedly, things

1394
01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:23,880
Speaker 1: come along that we have no control over that can

1395
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:27,479
Speaker 1: set us back at times. I am fully aware of that.

1396
01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:34,920
Speaker 1: But in order to grow, you've got to pick up

1397
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:39,759
Speaker 1: the slack and take the blame. Because you can't change

1398
01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:44,640
Speaker 1: another person. You can't make another person be something you

1399
01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 1: want them to be. You can't stop everybody from hating

1400
01:31:48,320 --> 01:31:52,160
Speaker 1: on you. You can't stop the plant from closing. You

1401
01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,040
Speaker 1: might not be able to stop foreclosure on your home.

1402
01:31:55,520 --> 01:31:59,120
Speaker 1: You might not be able to get that child of

1403
01:31:59,240 --> 01:32:05,200
Speaker 1: yours to graduate. For nothing in the world. So there

1404
01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:07,320
Speaker 1: are things that are going to happen that you have

1405
01:32:07,479 --> 01:32:12,000
Speaker 1: no control over. The one thing you can really control

1406
01:32:12,479 --> 01:32:16,880
Speaker 1: is you. You can do something about you. So here's

1407
01:32:16,880 --> 01:32:21,320
Speaker 1: the deal. If you are somewhere in life and you

1408
01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:25,760
Speaker 1: desire to go to the next level. In order to

1409
01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:27,880
Speaker 1: get to the next level, I don't care who you are,

1410
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:32,400
Speaker 1: you have to change some thinking. If I want to

1411
01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:35,520
Speaker 1: get to the next level that I'm trying to accomplish,

1412
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:40,519
Speaker 1: I have to change some of my current thinking. Because

1413
01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,599
Speaker 1: we've all thought ourselves to where we are right now.

1414
01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:47,120
Speaker 1: We are all a product of our thoughts and actions,

1415
01:32:47,439 --> 01:32:52,720
Speaker 1: all of us, all of us, every last one of us.

1416
01:32:54,120 --> 01:33:00,080
Speaker 1: We are partly responsible and greatly responsible for where we

1417
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:04,560
Speaker 1: are now. Thank you for the grace of God that

1418
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:08,080
Speaker 1: many of us are in places that we couldn't have

1419
01:33:08,160 --> 01:33:11,640
Speaker 1: possibly worked ourselves into. And I want to volunteer my

1420
01:33:11,800 --> 01:33:13,760
Speaker 1: hand and stick it up in the air because I

1421
01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:16,800
Speaker 1: am one of those people. My life is covered with

1422
01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:21,320
Speaker 1: God's grace. I'll give him that. But let me explain

1423
01:33:21,479 --> 01:33:24,720
Speaker 1: something to you. If I don't put the work in,

1424
01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:28,960
Speaker 1: what can God? What does God put his finger on

1425
01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:33,800
Speaker 1: to bless? So what I'm saying is, we've all thought

1426
01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:36,000
Speaker 1: ourselves to where we are, and thank God for his

1427
01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:38,519
Speaker 1: grace that we are all. Some of us are further

1428
01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:44,160
Speaker 1: along than we even should be. I'm included. But if

1429
01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:50,920
Speaker 1: you have any intention of growing, expanding, developing, being more successful,

1430
01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:59,160
Speaker 1: being happier, more well liked, being more meaningful, more impactful

1431
01:33:59,240 --> 01:34:02,880
Speaker 1: of a person, you want to be effective in more

1432
01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:06,559
Speaker 1: people's lives. You want to be a catalyst for change,

1433
01:34:07,040 --> 01:34:12,479
Speaker 1: you are going to have to change your thinking. It

1434
01:34:12,640 --> 01:34:17,559
Speaker 1: will not happen unless you change your thinking. So as

1435
01:34:17,600 --> 01:34:20,400
Speaker 1: well as you might think I've been I'm doing, I

1436
01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:22,840
Speaker 1: want you to know something. The plan that I have

1437
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:26,479
Speaker 1: for myself, the one that I'm confiding in God with

1438
01:34:26,720 --> 01:34:32,000
Speaker 1: on a daily basis, has required. As Joelo's Teams book says,

1439
01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:35,759
Speaker 1: that you're gonna have to develop some next level thinking.

1440
01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:41,920
Speaker 1: I met with a billionaire one time, and I'm feeling

1441
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:46,720
Speaker 1: okay about myself, and I'm at this house and I'm realizing, Man,

1442
01:34:47,840 --> 01:34:50,559
Speaker 1: this dude right here is on some whole a nother

1443
01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:54,080
Speaker 1: And as we got to talking after hours and hours,

1444
01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:59,960
Speaker 1: he says, Steve, Steve, you're gonna have to elevate your things.

1445
01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:05,360
Speaker 1: I said, man, I'm a really positive person. He said, yeah, well,

1446
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:07,720
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to let me see the phrase he

1447
01:35:07,920 --> 01:35:13,799
Speaker 1: used to me. He's I can't think of the exact

1448
01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:15,960
Speaker 1: phrase he said to me, but I got the message.

1449
01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:21,240
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to big up, meaning you're gonna have

1450
01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:26,360
Speaker 1: to supersize everything. If you want to change ten thousand

1451
01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:30,200
Speaker 1: boys lives a year, you gotta start thinking of how

1452
01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:34,439
Speaker 1: you can change a million of them a year. I

1453
01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:38,679
Speaker 1: went wow. He said, if you want to send ten

1454
01:35:38,760 --> 01:35:42,280
Speaker 1: thousand kids to school, he said, you should change your thinking.

1455
01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:44,639
Speaker 1: How do you send a million of them to school?

1456
01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:47,800
Speaker 1: He said, Man, if your goal is to make a

1457
01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:55,120
Speaker 1: thousand millionnaires, how do you make a million millionnaires? He said?

1458
01:35:55,280 --> 01:36:01,200
Speaker 1: That's how billionaires think. They just they level everything up.

1459
01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:07,000
Speaker 1: Everything goes up with them. They think up, therefore they

1460
01:36:07,200 --> 01:36:11,720
Speaker 1: act up. Therefore they become up, therefore they come up.

1461
01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:16,280
Speaker 1: It's crazy, man, You've got to develop next level thinking.

1462
01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:19,000
Speaker 1: I recommend Joel olds Teen's book. I kid you not, man,

1463
01:36:19,000 --> 01:36:21,280
Speaker 1: It's just a great book. But you gotta change the

1464
01:36:21,360 --> 01:36:23,439
Speaker 1: way you think everybody because you want to do better.

1465
01:36:23,520 --> 01:36:26,479
Speaker 1: You got to change those are my cold drop it
