Speaker 1: Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all
Speaker 1: don't know, y'all a sun giving them like the Millian
Speaker 1: buck bus things in the sto good Steve to the mother.
Speaker 1: I don't join joining me. You gotta turn you're going
Speaker 1: to do. You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn,
Speaker 1: you got to turn them out. Then turn the water
Speaker 1: the water go. Come come on your baby, Uh huh,
Speaker 1: I sure will come barted. Everybody you are listening to
Speaker 1: the voice, come on dig me now, one and only
Speaker 1: Steve Harvey, Oh yeah, man, got a radio show. Do
Speaker 1: you understand that? I'm telling you God been big in
Speaker 1: my life. I'm not gonna kid you. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: in here do the same thing for you. God. God
Speaker 1: is a gentleman, you know. I want to I want
Speaker 1: to point that out to you. God is an absolute gentleman.
Speaker 1: He will not come in unless he's invited. He don't
Speaker 1: just barge into your life. He gives us the power
Speaker 1: of choice. You know, if you say you got it,
Speaker 1: I don't need you. He let you have it. If
Speaker 1: you say I need you, come see about me. He
Speaker 1: right there. It's just a real simple thing. Man. So
Speaker 1: always say to people this if you've gotten yourself into something,
Speaker 1: and please know I have. I was stuck. I thought
Speaker 1: a couple of times, well, might not make it past
Speaker 1: this one. But then if I don't make it past it,
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen? And then I held on to this
Speaker 1: little thing that my mother kept talking to me about.
Speaker 1: She said, sometimes when you ain't got nothing else in you,
Speaker 1: just hope, she said, just hope it'll be all right,
Speaker 1: you know. And what I've learned in my life is
Speaker 1: that hope is the beginning of faith. Hope. It's just
Speaker 1: is there possibility out there for me? I sure hope
Speaker 1: something happened. See hope, hope it's okay, man, Because like
Speaker 1: I say, for me, the way I've lived my life,
Speaker 1: hope was the beginning of faith. It was just the idea.
Speaker 1: It's just the thought that something could change from me,
Speaker 1: that some thing could be a little bit different from me,
Speaker 1: that maybe, man, just maybe for some reason, I could
Speaker 1: be saved, I could be rescued. Things could turn around,
Speaker 1: it could head any other direction. Maybe I could quit
Speaker 1: messing up. Maybe somebody will forgive me, Maybe somebody will
Speaker 1: just say all right. I don't know, but I can't
Speaker 1: count the times I've been in that position. But then
Speaker 1: once I hope a little bit, and then I remember
Speaker 1: also my mother, because she was a Sunday school teacher,
Speaker 1: she taught me the most valuable lesson I've ever learned
Speaker 1: in my life. Nothing has been greater in my life
Speaker 1: than my faith. She taught me to pray. Mamma used
Speaker 1: to say, when you get real dark, for your son,
Speaker 1: prad changes things. She said, when you seem like you
Speaker 1: lost and you can't find your way, stop and pray,
Speaker 1: she said, because prad changes things. You know, when you
Speaker 1: get a point in your life when you've done all
Speaker 1: you can do and you can't do no more, and
Speaker 1: you I don't know what to do next, she says, stop, suh,
Speaker 1: pray and combine that prayer with that hope that you got,
Speaker 1: she said, because that hope is the beginning of faith.
Speaker 1: She said. If you pray just hoping, she's saying that
Speaker 1: God come through for you. That will give you confidence
Speaker 1: that he can do it again. And then after a
Speaker 1: while you quit hoping, She's saying, you start believing. She saying,
Speaker 1: that's when you're on to something. If you can turn
Speaker 1: that hope into belief, that hope into faith, the ability
Speaker 1: to believe in something that you can't see. But the
Speaker 1: key though the faith is you're believing in something that
Speaker 1: you can't see. See hoping a little bit different from
Speaker 1: me Now, I'm pretty sure, Like I say oftentimes to
Speaker 1: tell a lot of people who can explain this thing
Speaker 1: a lot better than I can to you, but just
Speaker 1: from my side of it, being as real as I
Speaker 1: can be rich. See, hope helps man. If you ain't
Speaker 1: strong enough to have faith, have hope, and then if
Speaker 1: you pray with some hope and God answers your prayer,
Speaker 1: then that hope gains a little confidence and after a
Speaker 1: while that confidence becomes faith. Now ain't just hoping, but
Speaker 1: I'm believing. I'm believing in something that I cannot see.
Speaker 1: Faith has been the key to my entire existence, even
Speaker 1: when I didn't have any It was faith, as I
Speaker 1: look back on it, that has gotten me here, and
Speaker 1: not just faith, but my faith. See, you will only
Speaker 1: get to where you're going in your life based on
Speaker 1: your faith. See A lot of people get the word
Speaker 1: faith confused, like what's your faith? And then they started
Speaker 1: going down this whole list of all these different religions
Speaker 1: out here, But really an essence Man, when I talk
Speaker 1: to people about faith, I'm talking to you about your
Speaker 1: your belief. How much do you believe in the unseen?
Speaker 1: How much do you believe in the things you can't see?
Speaker 1: How much do you believe in the impossible? How much
Speaker 1: do you believe see? Because faith is the belief in
Speaker 1: things that you cannot see. Faith is the core of
Speaker 1: all that is happening to me today. It is the
Speaker 1: faith that I have in my relationship with God that
Speaker 1: enables me to just oftentimes, if I stay on the
Speaker 1: right course and believe a certain way and act a
Speaker 1: certain way, his blessings just poor. They just come. And
Speaker 1: it comes in a lot of little ways too. I've
Speaker 1: started to notice, see it ain't just a lot of
Speaker 1: people think blessings is money and now, man, that ain't it.
Speaker 1: It's coverage. It's every time my plan at land safe.
Speaker 1: It's every time they predict bad weather and I get
Speaker 1: up in the sky and it don't be no bad weather.
Speaker 1: You know this, This is favor. These are blessings that
Speaker 1: get poured out to me. Somebody call me and offer
Speaker 1: me something, not money, but an opportunity, you know. Somebody say, hey, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I sent this to you. I
Speaker 1: thought you might be interested in it. Somebody will send
Speaker 1: me a scripture, or somebody will send me something that's favor,
Speaker 1: and it always comes at a time when I need
Speaker 1: it the most. That's favor, that's pouring out blessings. Now
Speaker 1: I'm also the recipient of a lot of other blessings too.
Speaker 1: You know, I've been blessed with health. That's amazing blessing. Man.
Speaker 1: I've been blessed with a spirit of not quitting. I've
Speaker 1: been blessed with the ability to shoulder huge amounts of responsibility. See,
Speaker 1: blessings come a lot of ways. But once you tie
Speaker 1: into God, Once you tie in and you start doing
Speaker 1: the best you can do, and you start asking for
Speaker 1: him to make you a better person, to help shape
Speaker 1: and mold you into the kind of man or person
Speaker 1: that he wants you to be. You be amazed what
Speaker 1: God can do with you. Man, if you just invite
Speaker 1: me in and allow him to be a part of
Speaker 1: your life. I mean, what you got to lose out there?
Speaker 1: Come on, if you're sitting in the cell this morning,
Speaker 1: why why would you not change? You have a chance
Speaker 1: to turn your life around with a relationship with God.
Speaker 1: What you're waiting on. Are you gonna just keep doing
Speaker 1: it like that? Huh? Really? Come on, man, why would
Speaker 1: you do that to yourself? Why would you not allow
Speaker 1: God to be a part of your life so you
Speaker 1: can get the way He want you to be. God
Speaker 1: got some big plans for you. If he didn't, you
Speaker 1: wouldn't keep waking up. You're listening, ladies and gentlemen, without

Speaker 1: twenty sixth birthday. We talked about that. She told Tim
Speaker 1: Z that Oprah expressed her condolences and said that she
Speaker 1: was thinking of a Mod on the days that should
Speaker 1: have been, you know, the day that he was celebrating
Speaker 1: his birthday. Oprah also said that she was sending her
Speaker 1: something in the mail but wouldn't say what. So that
Speaker 1: was really, really, really cool. Yeah, very nice of Oprah.
Speaker 1: And then other trending news A mod's mother who we
Speaker 1: was just talking about, Miss Wanda Cooper. She talked to
Speaker 1: TMZ yesterday and she wants the death penalty for her
Speaker 1: son's killers. Take a listen. What do you see as
Speaker 1: justice coming out of this? We've heard jay Z, Alicia Keys, Oprah.
Speaker 1: A lot of people come forward saying that they want
Speaker 1: to see swift justice here. What do you would your
Speaker 1: family consider swift justice? I don't like for all hands
Speaker 1: that were involved, that played the part, and my son's
Speaker 1: murdered to be prosecuted to the highest It's interesting Georgia
Speaker 1: has a death penalty. Prosecutors have discretion depending on circumstances.
Speaker 1: So with that on the table, is there anything you
Speaker 1: think is appropriate here? Coming from the mother's my point
Speaker 1: of view, my son died, so they should die as well. Yeah.
Speaker 1: If her white man gets life gets a death penity
Speaker 1: for killing the black man, that would be interesting to see. Yeah, Steve,
Speaker 1: a white man killing a black person and getting death
Speaker 1: the death penalty, that would be interesting to see. I
Speaker 1: think it's possible. What we that's just me look too, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I'm gonna be positive about it.
Speaker 1: I think it's possible. I mean, you know, watching that
Speaker 1: horrific videotape and what we saw, I mean, it's it
Speaker 1: seems like it should. Yeah. Ain't it amazing to you
Speaker 1: over the years, how we look at the video and
Speaker 1: we see something so evidently clear, and when they get
Speaker 1: it to a jury behind them closed doors, they don't
Speaker 1: see what we saw. No, it's alarming, It's shockingly alarming.
Speaker 1: How many times the video tells the story. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: video is cut and dry. I am still though, man,
Speaker 1: I am still waiting to see other than Chris Cuomo.
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to see that that famous, powerful non African
Speaker 1: American step forward and say something about this. Yeah. I mean, look, man,
Speaker 1: we can't keep marching for this alone ourselves because it
Speaker 1: hasn't worked. Not. The last time marches worked for us
Speaker 1: was Civil rights movement. That was the last time. Then
Speaker 1: they found a way to negate that. So now they've
Speaker 1: made that in an affect the protest, the Me too movement. Oh,
Speaker 1: we protested, that just went away, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, you know, what lives matter, the the kneeling
Speaker 1: for the national hand. Now that that went away. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's also the other day Steve that said, if your
Speaker 1: white friend won't stand up against racism, then you don't
Speaker 1: have no white friends. That's pretty simple. Come on, man,
Speaker 1: this is if your white friends don't stand won't stand
Speaker 1: up against racism, then you don't have no white preens.
Speaker 1: That's it. That's it, all right, Steve. Time to move on,
Speaker 1: Time to get to today's headlines, Ladies and gentlemen, Miss
Speaker 1: Anne Trull, thank you very much. Issues concerning President Trump
Speaker 1: where the subject of three cases heard by the Supreme
Speaker 1: Court yesterday and by teleconference because of the coronavirus. One
Speaker 1: case involves the House Financial Services Committee, which is looking
Speaker 1: into possible money laundering, Another involves the House Intelligence Committee,
Speaker 1: which is looking at a possible interference in the twenty
Speaker 1: sixteen election. And the third case involves Trump's former personal lawyer,
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen, who told Congress last year that Trump was
Speaker 1: inflating certain records and deflating others, which prompted legislator to
Speaker 1: ask for his tax returns, which you know he has
Speaker 1: never ever ever turned over. He always has an excuse
Speaker 1: for that. Infectious disease expert doctor Anthony Fauci and other
Speaker 1: top Trump administration health officials testified before a Senate committee
Speaker 1: yesterday about possible advancements in the fight against coronavirus, about
Speaker 1: treatments and testing and vaccines and planned reopenings. And they
Speaker 1: testified remotely since they were all self quarantined after coming
Speaker 1: in contact with infected White House staffers and doctor Fauci
Speaker 1: warned against sending people back too soon to work and school.
Speaker 1: The idea of having treatments available or a vaccine to
Speaker 1: facilitate the reentry of students into the fall term would
Speaker 1: be something that would be a bit of a bridge
Speaker 1: too far. Bouchie says he's worried that states that reopen
Speaker 1: everything too quickly could actually kickstart new outbreaks of the disease.
Speaker 1: And now New York Governor Andrew Cuomo says there is
Speaker 1: a new problem possibly. He's looking at about one hundred
Speaker 1: cases of a rare inflammatory disease that appears to be
Speaker 1: linked to the coronavirus, but targeting the young nine and
Speaker 1: ten year olds. Signs of it include swollen blood vessels
Speaker 1: and very red tongues. He says, a nine year old
Speaker 1: boy part of upstate New York with a relatively low
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. Caseload is recovering from this new thing, while
Speaker 1: three other children have died. Very sad news. California congressom
Speaker 1: Maxine Water says her sister has died of COVID nineteen.
Speaker 1: As chairperson of the Financial Services Committee, she shared the
Speaker 1: news of her sister's condition last month on the House
Speaker 1: floor while holding back the tears. I'm going to take
Speaker 1: a moment to dedicate this legislation to my dear sister,
Speaker 1: who is dying in a hospital in Saint Louis, Missouri
Speaker 1: right now, infected by the corona virus. This legislation provides
Speaker 1: one hundred billion for hospitals. And the legislation she was
Speaker 1: talking about was the Healthcare Enhancement Act, and again she
Speaker 1: was holding back those tears. Maxine Water says that losing
Speaker 1: her sister was one of the hardest experiences of her life.
Speaker 1: It was not easy, but in many ways, she says,
Speaker 1: I'm glad she's out of pain. More sad news, the
Speaker 1: roy of Siegfried and Roy in Las Vegas that Tiger
Speaker 1: Training Act has also died. Authorities say also died of
Speaker 1: coronavirus related illnesses. He was seventy five. Now back to
Speaker 1: the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening show? All right?
Speaker 1: So yesterday doctor Anthony Fauci and three other top government
Speaker 1: doctors testified before the Senate by video addressing the government's
Speaker 1: coronavirus response and the reopening of the economy. Doctor Fauci
Speaker 1: is concerned about the states, you know, reopening too quickly,
Speaker 1: particularly without seeing a fourteen day drop in new cases.
Speaker 1: Take a listen. Even if we get better control over
Speaker 1: the months, it is likely that they will be virus
Speaker 1: somewhere on this planet that will eventually get back to us.
Speaker 1: So my approach towards the possibility of a rebound in
Speaker 1: a second wave in the fall is that A it's
Speaker 1: entirely conceivable and possible that would happen. But B I
Speaker 1: would hope at between now and then, given the capability
Speaker 1: of doing the testing that you've heard from from Peneral Gerard,
Speaker 1: and the ability of us to stock up on personal
Speaker 1: protective equipment and the workforce that the CDC under doctor
Speaker 1: Redfield will be putting forth to be able to identify
Speaker 1: isolated contact trace, I hope that if we do have
Speaker 1: the threat of a second wave, we will be able
Speaker 1: to deal with it very effectively. To prevent it from
Speaker 1: becoming an outbreak not only worse than now, but much
Speaker 1: much less. I have to learn from the mistakes from
Speaker 1: before the delay with the President actually taking this seriously.
Speaker 1: And that's what some of the Democrats were saying that
Speaker 1: President Trump yesterday was more focused on fighting the truth
Speaker 1: than fighting the virus, and sadly Americans have paid the
Speaker 1: price for that. Well, there's a statistic Nepolder says eighty
Speaker 1: four percent of Republicans GOP are an approval of the
Speaker 1: way he's handling the coronavirus. He has successfully again told
Speaker 1: them that he reacted quickly, that's not true. He also
Speaker 1: is blaming the Democrats for fighting the reopening of the
Speaker 1: economy for political reasons, stating that you know, look, they
Speaker 1: don't want this economy to get back on the feet
Speaker 1: because of political reasons, meaning it would hurt him in
Speaker 1: the reelection. But isn't that the same reason He's rushing
Speaker 1: to open the country so these unemployment numbers can go
Speaker 1: down and he can tout that he's bringing the country
Speaker 1: back up, but it's at the expense of a lot
Speaker 1: of people. So now, look, I understand folks wanting to
Speaker 1: go back to work, I understand people needing to go
Speaker 1: back to work. I get it, man. And if I
Speaker 1: was in a position where I had to risk my
Speaker 1: health to save my family, I probably would too. To
Speaker 1: be honest with you, I take as many precautions as
Speaker 1: I can, but I would have to go and try
Speaker 1: to rescue my family from this speed tailspin win. So
Speaker 1: I get it, man, I get it. But we got
Speaker 1: to be smart, and we got to be careful. You
Speaker 1: got to keep washing your hands, you got to wear
Speaker 1: your mask, and you got to practice social distancing or else. Man,
Speaker 1: it can happen. Yeah, but get tested. Quare all these
Speaker 1: damn test they talking about? Yeah, that we don't have
Speaker 1: access to all? Right, coming up next, Steve, we're gonna
Speaker 1: switch gears. It's time for Ask the CLO, the Chief
Speaker 1: Love Officer. Yeah, right after this. Yeah, you're listening to
Speaker 1: time now for Ask the CLO, the Chief Love Officer.
Speaker 1: You can submit your questions if you have a question
Speaker 1: for the Cello at AM dot com. You're ready for
Speaker 1: me to ask him, Nephew, This one is from Scared
Speaker 1: Christian in Alabama. Scared Christian, Scared Christian in Alabama. So

Speaker 1: and the hot tub. I confided in my best friend,
Speaker 1: who is a musician at the church, and he said
Speaker 1: that I am as good as dead because the pastor
Speaker 1: has cameras all over his house. The first lady and
Speaker 1: I are scared as heck waiting to see if the

Speaker 1: us his blessing. My only problem is that I'm married.
Speaker 1: I'm only I only married my wife because she got
Speaker 1: pregnant and I wanted to be in my child's life.

Speaker 1: this Stephen, Shirley. I can hardly believe what I'm about
Speaker 1: to tell you, and I need some advice. I've been
Speaker 1: with my girl for almost three years, and I proposed
Speaker 1: to her. Her family lives out of states, so I'm
Speaker 1: not interacted with them much, but her mom comes to
Speaker 1: visit often and we get along very well. Her father
Speaker 1: is deceased and she's an only child. And since we're
Speaker 1: getting married, we've been talking more about family dynamics and
Speaker 1: how we were raised. My fiance told me that she
Speaker 1: has a family secret that she needed to share with me.
Speaker 1: Before we walked down the aisle. My fiance told me
Speaker 1: that her great uncle is her real father. She told
Speaker 1: me that her mom's side of the family is not close.
Speaker 1: So when her mom was twenty six, she started dating
Speaker 1: an older man and had no idea was her uncle,
Speaker 1: and the uncle had no idea he was messing with
Speaker 1: his niece. She told me that when her mom got pregnant,
Speaker 1: she told her parents who her boyfriend was, and all
Speaker 1: hell broke loose. I know this is confusing, but basically,
Speaker 1: my future mother in law had a baby by her uncle.
Speaker 1: My fiance told me that her mom is the black
Speaker 1: sheep of the family. I can't believe I'm about to
Speaker 1: marry into a real Strawberry letter type family. I have
Speaker 1: a loving family, and I would love for our children
Speaker 1: to be around both sides of the family. My fiance
Speaker 1: says that families isn't all that important to her, and
Speaker 1: she wants us to start our own family traditions when
Speaker 1: we get married and have kids. I'm not sure about
Speaker 1: all of this. Is this a big red flag or
Speaker 1: should I try to work through this mess? All right, Well,
Speaker 1: you know you proposed to your girlfriend. You guys have
Speaker 1: been dating for three years. You're cool with her mom.
Speaker 1: Her dad is deceased, so now you guys are getting married.
Speaker 1: You talked about family, your fiance revealed to you that
Speaker 1: her mom's family is not close, and she told you
Speaker 1: about a family's secret that back when her mom was
Speaker 1: twenty six years old, she dated an older man. She
Speaker 1: didn't know he was her uncle. The uncle didn't know
Speaker 1: that the mom was his niece. Okay, all right. Anyway,
Speaker 1: her mom got pregnant and revealed who the father was.
Speaker 1: The family were crazy, and now the mom is a
Speaker 1: black sheep of the family. So now I don't know.
Speaker 1: You're judging your fiance's mom her past, and you're concerned
Speaker 1: about marrying into a real life Strawberry letter family. You
Speaker 1: have to start a marriage out by telling the truth,
Speaker 1: especially if you want a chance to succeed. And your
Speaker 1: fiance did just that by revealing to you her family's
Speaker 1: dark secrets. It's not easy. It's so not easy for
Speaker 1: your fiance to be known as the daughter whose father
Speaker 1: is her great uncle. That's a cloud of shame that
Speaker 1: nobody wants. Nobody wants that. However, she wants to start
Speaker 1: her own family traditions with you and when you all
Speaker 1: are married with kids. But your question to us is this,
Speaker 1: is this a big red flag or should you work
Speaker 1: through this mess? So the question back to you is
Speaker 1: can you handle the lady of being the black sheep
Speaker 1: of the family. Can you handle that with your mother
Speaker 1: in law and your daughter? And if you love this woman,
Speaker 1: then her mom's passed shouldn't matter. It shouldn't matter. See um, Look, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna get right to it. What you're tripping for? Dog?
Speaker 1: I don't even understand, I really, man, I mean, look,
Speaker 1: what what what any of this got to do with you?
Speaker 1: Unless you're the only concern you can have here is
Speaker 1: some genetic code has gotten passed down to your wife.
Speaker 1: She holding and y'all could have a baby with something
Speaker 1: wrong with it. But I don't know. But it don't
Speaker 1: seem like it happened, because if it didn't happen to
Speaker 1: the girl and they and they don't. I just don't know, man, y'all,
Speaker 1: I don't get what's wrong here. You you wearried, you
Speaker 1: know the mother in law, y'all get along, y'all getting married.
Speaker 1: Your fiance got a family secret, so she come and clean.
Speaker 1: She needed to share with you. Told me that her
Speaker 1: great uncle is her real father. Okay. She told me
Speaker 1: that her mom's side of the family is not close,
Speaker 1: so her mother was twenty six, she started dating an
Speaker 1: older man and had no idea. Was her uncle? Okay,
Speaker 1: that's possible. That's possible. And the uncle had no idea.
Speaker 1: He was messing with his knees. That's possible. She told me.
Speaker 1: When her mom got pregnant. Your mom even went to
Speaker 1: her parents and told her who her boyfriend was. You
Speaker 1: you really don't know this my boyfriend here a little
Speaker 1: bit older, but this my boyfriend. Wait a minute, that
Speaker 1: show damn uncle. Yeah, so all hell broke loose into
Speaker 1: the family as I would expect it would. But basically,
Speaker 1: my future mother in law had a baby by her uncle,
Speaker 1: And what the hell do that got to do with
Speaker 1: you and your fiance? What? You're making a whole lot
Speaker 1: out of this dog. You're making a whole lot out
Speaker 1: of this m How old are you? Man? You got
Speaker 1: to be young. You got to be young, man, because
Speaker 1: you trip it. If you really love this girl and
Speaker 1: you've asked her to marry you what her mother in
Speaker 1: law did her mom twenty six years ago? Man, let
Speaker 1: me I'll be back. All right, hold that thought, Steve.
Speaker 1: We'll have part two of your response at twenty three
Speaker 1: after the hour. You're listening, all right, Steve, we're back
Speaker 1: let's recap today's Strawberry letter. My life is about to
Speaker 1: be a real strawberry letter recap. I'm i'm, I'm, I'm confused. Man,
Speaker 1: Just this guy writes in this letter and said he
Speaker 1: proposed to this girl and her family lives out of state,
Speaker 1: so you ain't interacted with him much, but her mom
Speaker 1: comes to visit. Y'all get along really well. Her father's deceived.
Speaker 1: She's an only child. Since we're getting married, we've been
Speaker 1: talking more about family dynamics and how we was raised.
Speaker 1: And then she told me she had a family secret
Speaker 1: she need to tell you about. Before we went down
Speaker 1: the aisle. My fiance told me that her great uncle
Speaker 1: is her real father, but not her mother's brother. Right,
Speaker 1: her mother's parents one of her one of them's brother
Speaker 1: or sistant siblings. Yes, dog, dog dog. We're a little
Speaker 1: bit away now. And she told me that her mom's
Speaker 1: side of her family is not close. And when her
Speaker 1: mom was twenty six, she started dating an older man,
Speaker 1: had no idea was her uncle. Who would be her
Speaker 1: mother's parents brought sibley, yes, one of them, yes, And
Speaker 1: then she got pregnant. She told her parents to who
Speaker 1: her boyfriend was and all hell broke loose, and then
Speaker 1: you said, I know this is confusing, but basically, my
Speaker 1: future mother in law had a baby by her uncle
Speaker 1: and doc, do you really know what has happened in
Speaker 1: some families? Yea or or I don't know how you
Speaker 1: think this all of a sudden is the biggest Strawberry
Speaker 1: Letter We didn't head because it ain't. And I'm telling you, man,
Speaker 1: slow your roll down. My fiance told me that her
Speaker 1: mom is the black sheep of the family. Yeah, of
Speaker 1: course they gonna blame her. How could you? How could
Speaker 1: you not? That was a picture of him. Maybe maybe
Speaker 1: not Nonna. Anyway, I can't believe I'm about to marry
Speaker 1: into a real Strawberry letter type family. That what you're
Speaker 1: tripping for. You don't even see these people, you just said,
Speaker 1: they live out of state. You have very little interaction
Speaker 1: with him. You ain't never met him. You'ven't met the mother.
Speaker 1: She's a beautiful lady. Mistake, it's happening in life, partner,
Speaker 1: I got news for you to make something. You're gonna
Speaker 1: make some more. Yeah, when do people get forgiven? I
Speaker 1: have a loving family, and I would love for our
Speaker 1: children to be around both sides of the family. You
Speaker 1: ain't even around both sides of the family. Yeah, dog,
Speaker 1: you want your kids to be around both sides of
Speaker 1: the family. You ain't even around both sides of the family.
Speaker 1: So where you're going with this? You you got so
Speaker 1: much mustard on this sandwich right here, it can't taste good.
Speaker 1: You know, bro, mustard is good. But if you put
Speaker 1: all the mustard in the jaw on one sandwich, you're
Speaker 1: not gonna enjoy that sandwich. No, you can't taste it. Bro.
Speaker 1: You you ain't got number mustard on hire. My fiance sayings,
Speaker 1: family isn't all that important to her, and she wants
Speaker 1: to start our own family traditions. You know why because
Speaker 1: she comes from a slightly dysfunctional family. That's right. Her
Speaker 1: mama got banned from the family, so her mama raised
Speaker 1: her and took her off to the side. She the
Speaker 1: black sheep of the family, so she was never bought
Speaker 1: or you. Probably the fiace ain't been around him because
Speaker 1: they they probably ostracized to mama. So she want to
Speaker 1: start her own family traditions with you when we get
Speaker 1: married and have kids. I'm not sure about all this.
Speaker 1: Is this a big red flag? What is your punk
Speaker 1: ass talking about a red flag? Faulk, boy, you got
Speaker 1: the man up. Man, put your arms around this girl
Speaker 1: and embrace her and give her the life she never had.

Speaker 1: she was trying to Yes, she didn't want to get married.
Speaker 1: In that beyond the table, she told you. Should I
Speaker 1: I try to work through this mess? Hold up, partner,
Speaker 1: let me say this to you. If you get married.

Speaker 1: of course STEM in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Man,
Speaker 1: go ahead, brother, Nicholas Johnson here is from Canada. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Nine of nine of the past presidents or slave owner
Speaker 1: at Princeton, So congratulate Steve. Do you have any advice
Speaker 1: for graduates of twenty twenties is something you just want
Speaker 1: to say to you know, we were talking about this
Speaker 1: earlier off the year of what's happening. I mean, no, Look,
Speaker 1: it's a monumental accomplishment to graduate from any institution of
Speaker 1: how learning. I take my head off to anybody who does.
Speaker 1: I was unable to do it. I just didn't have
Speaker 1: what it took at the time, which was I didn't
Speaker 1: have goals back then. I didn't have understanding back then,
Speaker 1: I didn't have a plan back then, So I didn't
Speaker 1: make it. So I take my hat off to anybody.
Speaker 1: So monumental task. But like I told as one graduating class,
Speaker 1: when you get a diploma, it's like you now have
Speaker 1: a ticket, but the ticket allows you to get in.
Speaker 1: When you have a ticket, you can get in something.
Speaker 1: You can get in the club. If you got a ticket,
Speaker 1: you can get into dance. You can get in the party.
Speaker 1: You just have a ticket. Now, what you do once
Speaker 1: you get into dance, it's what you do after you
Speaker 1: get your degree, and the ticket lets you get into dance.
Speaker 1: Once you get out of school and you get into
Speaker 1: the work world in life, what you do in the
Speaker 1: dance has nothing to do with your ticket anymore, you
Speaker 1: got to start performing at the dance. And so I
Speaker 1: implore all graduates chase your dreams before you leave this world,
Speaker 1: even if it's not tied to your diploma. Because in
Speaker 1: your dreams, man lies what wakes you up in the
Speaker 1: middle of the night, which won't let you sleep, what
Speaker 1: you fantasize about, it's all in your imagination. It conjures
Speaker 1: up thoughts of greatness and wonderment. And never lose sight
Speaker 1: of that. Man. Don't get so locked and bogged down,
Speaker 1: because what life is is not like college. College is.
Speaker 1: We give you some information. We ask for that information back.
Speaker 1: If you recite it back to us and you have
Speaker 1: a good memory, we're gonna give you a good grade.
Speaker 1: Well you in life now that ain't high life work.
Speaker 1: Life don't give you the information. Didn't ask for it back.
Speaker 1: They just give you the damn information. Now write your
Speaker 1: answer down. Yeah, you can't study for it, the dog
Speaker 1: you can't study for it. We don't. We're gonna test you.
Speaker 1: Tom All pages nine three level Now now surprise, good advice.
Speaker 1: Steve All ain't coming up. We got more of today's
Speaker 1: trended stories on the Seve Harvey Morning Show at twenty
Speaker 1: minutes after the hour you're listening to the Steve Morning Show.
Speaker 1: Here's some tell me something good news. I love our
Speaker 1: second God. There you go, Steve, jay Z and Meek Mills.
Speaker 1: Reform Alliance is sending ten million surgical mask and other
Speaker 1: personal protective equipment to prisons across the US. Social distancing
Speaker 1: obviously is nearly impossible, and without enough masks for protection
Speaker 1: against the coronavirus, many inmates with underlying conditions fear for
Speaker 1: their lives. So a huge shout out too. We have
Speaker 1: to give to Twitter's CEO Jack Dorsey because he donated
Speaker 1: ten million dollars for this project, So shout out to Yeah.
Speaker 1: And speaking of Jack, I'm sorry, go ahead. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: care if you got one or not. But anyway, it's
Speaker 1: side voice, outside voice. But anyway, speaking of Twitter CEO
Speaker 1: Jack Dorsey, he just announced that his employees at Twitter
Speaker 1: now have the option of working from home forever. They
Speaker 1: had that option, Yes, he said. The Twitter officers are
Speaker 1: not going to open reopen in September and maybe later on,
Speaker 1: and so so far they've made this new way, this
Speaker 1: new norm of working, so employees can work from home
Speaker 1: forever if they choose to hold them offices down save
Speaker 1: some money. Yeah, cool, my ass this money saying well
Speaker 1: and that way and that way, limit tar your something else.
Speaker 1: When you release people in farm, they ain't dead, all right.
Speaker 1: More of the Seve Harvey Morning Show trend what's the
Speaker 1: silver lining? You're listening to Harvey Morning Show. Oprah Winfrey
Speaker 1: she has reached out to the mother of Ahmad Aubrey
Speaker 1: and he is the Africana mail jogger who was good
Speaker 1: down by two men in Georgia. Miss Wanda Cooper Jones
Speaker 1: said she received a surprise phone call from Oprah on Friday,
Speaker 1: which would have been a Mod's twenty sixth birthday. We
Speaker 1: talked about that. She told TMZ that Oprah expressed her
Speaker 1: condolences and said that she was thinking of a MOD
Speaker 1: on the days that should have been, you know, the
Speaker 1: day that he was celebrating his birthday. Oprah also said
Speaker 1: that she was sending her something in the mail but
Speaker 1: wouldn't say what. So that was really really, really cool.
Speaker 1: You have very nice of Oprah. And then other trending news.
Speaker 1: A Mod's mother who we were just talking about, Miss
Speaker 1: Wanda Cooper. She talked to TMZ yesterday and she wants
Speaker 1: the death penalty for her son's killers. Take a listen,
Speaker 1: what do you see as justice coming out of this?
Speaker 1: We've heard jay z, Alicia keys Oprah, A lot of
Speaker 1: people come forward saying that they want to see swift
Speaker 1: justice here. What do you would your family consider swift justice.
Speaker 1: I don't like all hands that were involved to play
Speaker 1: the part, and my sounds murdered to be prosecuted to
Speaker 1: the highest It's interesting Georgia has a death penalty. Prosecutors
Speaker 1: have discretion, uh, depending on circumstances. So with that on
Speaker 1: the table, is there anything you think is appropriate here?
Speaker 1: Coming from the mother's my point of view, my son died,
Speaker 1: so they should die as well. Yeah, if a white
Speaker 1: man gets life gets a death penalty for killing a
Speaker 1: black man, that would be interesting to see. Yeah, Steve,
Speaker 1: a white man killing a black person and getting death
Speaker 1: the death penalty. I think it's possible. That's just me
Speaker 1: looking as too. Yeah, I know, I know, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be positive about it. I think it's possible. It seems
Speaker 1: like it should look cut and dried up. YEA. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Ain't it amazing to you over the years, how we
Speaker 1: look at a video and we see something so evidently clear,
Speaker 1: and when they get it to a jury behind them
Speaker 1: closed doors, they don't see what we saw. It's alarming,
Speaker 1: It's shockingly alarming. How many times the video tells the story. Yes,
Speaker 1: this video is cut and dry. I am still though, man,
Speaker 1: I am still waiting to see other than Chris Cuomo.
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to see that famous, powerful non African American
Speaker 1: step forward and say something about this. Yeah. I mean, look, man,
Speaker 1: we can't keep marching for this alone ourselves because it
Speaker 1: hasn't worked. Not. The last time marches worked for us
Speaker 1: was civil rights movement. That was the last time. Then
Speaker 1: they found a way to negate that. All right, when
Speaker 1: we come back at forty nine, after the hours, Steve
Speaker 1: Harvey's closing remarks right after this you're listening to all right, guys,
Speaker 1: it is the last break of the day right now.
Speaker 1: It was a good Wednesday week, good morning, Yeah, yeah, hurry,
Speaker 1: same same as flat day, hump and flat. You know
Speaker 1: what I'd like to Stevie wonder part A part I did? Ye? Hey,
Speaker 1: listen in closing today, let me share something with you. Listen.
Speaker 1: I understand that this quarantine lockdown virus affects people on
Speaker 1: so many levels. Worst case scenario, you've lost a loved
Speaker 1: one to this thing. I think that's at the apex
Speaker 1: of the situation. Anytime you lose a loved one, Uh,
Speaker 1: that's that's that's that's devastating. So I'm not really saying
Speaker 1: anything to those people. I'm I'm talking to people who
Speaker 1: are having to grapple with other situations. I mean, but
Speaker 1: even if you have to grapple with death, you have
Speaker 1: to come to terms with it. You have to. You
Speaker 1: have to come to terms with it. However that is
Speaker 1: for you. I'm not telling you how you should feel.
Speaker 1: The grief is rough. Man ain't no manual for it.
Speaker 1: It's just rough. But for those of us who are
Speaker 1: dealing with the other side of it, the other areas
Speaker 1: of it, the loss of employment, the sitting at home,
Speaker 1: the quarantine, the tide of being locked down a quarantine um,
Speaker 1: the having to homeschool your kids, the loss of a
Speaker 1: job and income. And you don't know how you're gonna
Speaker 1: see your way through this. Let me give you some help.
Speaker 1: This is a good time to get in touch with God.
Speaker 1: God shows some of his greatest works in the middle
Speaker 1: of a crisis. He has done some of the most
Speaker 1: miraculous things for people who are in dire situations. I
Speaker 1: mean dire situations. The Bible is filled with stories of
Speaker 1: redemption and saving and healing and fulfillment. But there's a
Speaker 1: modern day story that has a chance to be written
Speaker 1: here too, And you can be a part of this
Speaker 1: modern day story writing. But you just have to get
Speaker 1: in touch with God. You know, people, Steve, God and us,
Speaker 1: why God letting this happening? If God is all his Hey, man, Hey,
Speaker 1: I don't have answers for all of that. I know
Speaker 1: that God is the solution to every problem I've ever
Speaker 1: had when I took it to him. I do know
Speaker 1: that God never told you that life would be problem free.
Speaker 1: He's never said that. God never told you that life
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna have his ups and downs, his trials and tribulations.
Speaker 1: If the Bible is full of stories of that. What
Speaker 1: he did promise you that he would never leave you.
Speaker 1: What he did promise is that you could have a
Speaker 1: very present help in the time of trouble. What he
Speaker 1: did promise was to never leave your side. What he
Speaker 1: did promise you that he would always be there. See,
Speaker 1: faith don't make it easy. Faith makes it possible, but
Speaker 1: you have got to apply some faith, y'all. You've got
Speaker 1: to have a relationship with God. You don't know what
Speaker 1: God can do until you allow him to do it.
Speaker 1: But you have to invite him in. You have to
Speaker 1: ask God to be a part of your life. Now. Look,
Speaker 1: I know this is gonna be a little odd for
Speaker 1: some people because you don't go to him that often.
Speaker 1: And then when you do show up talking to him
Speaker 1: as always when you want something, to need something, but
Speaker 1: can let me tell you something. He understands that. He
Speaker 1: makes a lotment for that. He knows that you are
Speaker 1: that way. And God is a forgiving God. Every time
Speaker 1: I stayed away from him from periods of time, when
Speaker 1: I came back to him, he had his arms wide
Speaker 1: open and he accepted me in. He'll do the same
Speaker 1: thing for you. You don't have to handle this thing
Speaker 1: by yourself. This don't have to just be a crisis.
Speaker 1: You could be in the middle of a miracle. Some
Speaker 1: people are going to get new career opportunities out of this.
Speaker 1: Now you may be forced into the new career. But
Speaker 1: some people who have been sick of their jobs. Think
Speaker 1: of how many people are that's so sick of my job. Well,
Speaker 1: you don't have it anymore. Here's a chance for you
Speaker 1: to start to turn over a new leaf, to walk
Speaker 1: up the hallway and go through another door. Some people
