Speaker 1: Y'all know what time of y'all don't know, y'all back
Speaker 1: all suit looking back to back down, giving them more
Speaker 1: like the milling bus things in the cubbing me through
Speaker 1: good it. Steve hard listening to the movie together for
Speaker 1: Stum Hardley, I don't join join me, be doing me. Honey.
Speaker 1: You gotta turn, you gotta turn to turn, got the turnout,
Speaker 1: then turn the water the water go. Come come on
Speaker 1: your back. Uh huh. I show will come on to everybody,
Speaker 1: y'all listening to the voice, come on dig me now.
Speaker 1: One and only Steve Harvey got a radio still, Steve
Speaker 1: Harvey got a radio show. Sometimes when I chuckle like
Speaker 1: that reminds me of my oldest brother to pass the
Speaker 1: where he used to laugh like that. It's kind of
Speaker 1: funny how jeans get passed down through the line. I
Speaker 1: don't know why I told y'all that, just sont to
Speaker 1: share with you. That's all. As always, always kind of
Speaker 1: ask God to help me, you know, um, and and
Speaker 1: and and I had I had gotten off track a
Speaker 1: little bit because one of the principles of success I
Speaker 1: want to share with you all today is a law
Speaker 1: of attraction. And that is a very very serious principle.
Speaker 1: It cannot be ignored the law of attraction. And I'm
Speaker 1: not going to be able to explain it to you
Speaker 1: as well as the books secrets can, or as well
Speaker 1: as some people. I can only articulate it to you
Speaker 1: the way that I see it. And the law of
Speaker 1: attraction is very, very real. The law of attraction is
Speaker 1: a principle of success. It is something that everyone has
Speaker 1: to adhere to. Now, whether you know the law of
Speaker 1: attraction or not, it does not make it not exist
Speaker 1: for you. This is the case where ignorance is not
Speaker 1: the excuse. The fact that no one told it to you.
Speaker 1: There is no pass for this one. The fact that
Speaker 1: you never heard it before it does not allow you
Speaker 1: to do it any other way. So let me see
Speaker 1: if I can put it to you best I can.
Speaker 1: The law of attraction, the law of attraction, to put
Speaker 1: it real simple, is the thing that you focus on,
Speaker 1: the thing that you talk about, the thing that you
Speaker 1: think of, is the thing that you draw to you.
Speaker 1: It's what you attract to you. That's basically the law
Speaker 1: of attraction. The thing that you talk about, the thing
Speaker 1: that you think about, the thing that you focus on,
Speaker 1: whatever it is that is what you attract. The law
Speaker 1: of attraction does not differentiate from positive and negative. It
Speaker 1: only does what it does. What I am saying is
Speaker 1: this in the law of attraction, no matter what you
Speaker 1: think of, no matter what occupies your time, no matter
Speaker 1: what you say, or no matter what the focus is,
Speaker 1: positive or negative, the law of attraction knows neither one.
Speaker 1: It just attracts it. So let's use some examples here,
Speaker 1: and just your best example always uses me that way.
Speaker 1: I ain't got to figure out nothing. I can just
Speaker 1: tell you my side of it. I was in a
Speaker 1: lot of debt one time in my life, as before
Speaker 1: any of you knew me, so you can understand. In
Speaker 1: case you're not thinking, I don't. I don't want you
Speaker 1: to think that this conversation is about your income level,
Speaker 1: cause it's not. It doesn't matter what the income level
Speaker 1: you are. The law of attraction works in all aspects money, family, relationships, job, career, love.
Speaker 1: It just works that way. Okay, here's the deal. I
Speaker 1: kept saying, Man, this debt is killing me. I got
Speaker 1: to get out. That's what I thought was a good goal,
Speaker 1: to get out of debt. But what I kept saying was,
Speaker 1: you know, I kept talking about debt, and you know
Speaker 1: what it kept doing. It kept attracting debt to me.
Speaker 1: So guess what, so I could get out that's all?
Speaker 1: Is that crazy? That is an amazing law to understand.
Speaker 1: What turned it around for me was I started claiming
Speaker 1: a life of abundance. God, I am seeking a life
Speaker 1: of abundance. I want to have more than enough. I
Speaker 1: want to be able to help other people. I just
Speaker 1: want to have a law of attraction so that I
Speaker 1: be able to provide my family the lifestyle that I
Speaker 1: want to provide them. I want heavily, father, to be
Speaker 1: able to be an example of your goodness and your
Speaker 1: grace in my life. That is what I started saying.
Speaker 1: And guess what, that's what I started attractive. I'm going
Speaker 1: to have a great relationship with my children. I'm going
Speaker 1: to be the father that I always wanted to be.
Speaker 1: I'm going to be a good father. I'm going to
Speaker 1: be a good husband. Now. I am going to do
Speaker 1: the right things. I am going to be the type
Speaker 1: of example that my sons can look no further and go.
Speaker 1: I can be like my dad. I want to be
Speaker 1: able to be a place, a beacon of light and
Speaker 1: hope for my daughters to come to. That's what I
Speaker 1: started saying. That's what I started attracting to my life.
Speaker 1: The law of attraction does not care if you want
Speaker 1: it to be positive or negative. The law of attraction
Speaker 1: just attracts whatever it is. You focus on, what you
Speaker 1: think about, the words that come out your mouth. You
Speaker 1: cannot overlook this principle of success and expect to make
Speaker 1: it because of the fact that you've never heard of
Speaker 1: the law of attraction, because of the fact that you
Speaker 1: don't know how it really operates. It does not make
Speaker 1: it not exist in your day. You can start today
Speaker 1: attracting the right things to your life by changing what
Speaker 1: you say, what you think, what you focus on, change
Speaker 1: the focus, change the thought, change the words that come
Speaker 1: out your mouth, and guess what you change what you
Speaker 1: attract to yourself. You have got to ask yourself, why
Speaker 1: is it? Man? Man, let me tell you something. Somebody
Speaker 1: said the Bishop Jake's one time. They said, man, everything
Speaker 1: you touch turns to gold. He said, no, I just
Speaker 1: don't touch everything. Man, This it's crazy. Come on, man,
Speaker 1: he has a focus. He has a focus. See, he
Speaker 1: ain't just everywhere. Bring me any idea, Let me try that. No, no, no, man,
Speaker 1: he has a focus. He has a law of attraction
Speaker 1: that's working, where he's attracting things to his life that
Speaker 1: that's positive that he can't ask not to say, Bishop James,
Speaker 1: don't have problems because we talk often and man, he
Speaker 1: have them. Oh, please understand. And he's not trying to
Speaker 1: attract the problems. But what he will attract is the
Speaker 1: proper solution for the problem. And ain't that all you need? Sometimes?
Speaker 1: God did not say that it would be easy. He
Speaker 1: just said he would be with you. And if God
Speaker 1: is with you, who can be against you? God will
Speaker 1: make your enemies your footstool. God is powerful man, His
Speaker 1: word is true. He do what he say he gonna do. Now,
Speaker 1: all we got to do is do some of what
Speaker 1: we say. We ain't gonna do everything, just do some
Speaker 1: of what we say. Okay, here's a deal. God is
Speaker 1: going to do everything he say he gonna to you,
Speaker 1: and I just got to do some of the stuff
Speaker 1: we say we're gonna do because he already know we
Speaker 1: ain't gonna do all of it. He clear on that.
Speaker 1: He clear on that. All right, thank you, you're listening,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, man have your attention. Please Steve Harvey
Speaker 1: Morning Show, Old back, old back to cracking rice crisps
Speaker 1: with tap water and powdered sugar powder, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1: Shirley Strawberry, Huh okay, good morning. Yeah, just something different.
Speaker 1: You know, it's all the ingredients you need for snap
Speaker 1: crack on Pop, but the tap water actually should be

Speaker 1: but we want you did we already know it's gonna

Speaker 1: and that's that's like one table spo. You had to
Speaker 1: go to bed because the sugar rush is so intense.
Speaker 1: Then to this day, I thought that was the greatest
Speaker 1: invention ever. Yes, it is so delicious, but that's how
Speaker 1: you know it's so wrong for you on so many levels. Well,
Speaker 1: we're here again today, I think everybody is still a
Speaker 1: little bit still uh not a little bit in shock. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I just don't have a word for him.
Speaker 1: But I was thinking though, because I don't claim to
Speaker 1: know what God thinks, you know, and who am I
Speaker 1: to even figure what his ways is? But I was
Speaker 1: thinking about the tragedy of Kobe Bryant and his daughter
Speaker 1: and all the other people on there. Yeah, just when
Speaker 1: your time is up and you're a person of that
Speaker 1: magnitude his passing, I've gotten more phone calls, more texts.
Speaker 1: This is the most condolences, and hey, man, I just
Speaker 1: want call and tell y'all love you. Man. You know
Speaker 1: that would really hit me hard. And that's a that's
Speaker 1: a tough part of it. And I guess that's what
Speaker 1: his legacy is. You know, how he touched so many people.
Speaker 1: We're talking about Kobe Bryant, of course, how he touched
Speaker 1: so many people, and it prompted people to show love.
Speaker 1: Let people know that you are loved and we love you.
Speaker 1: I love you, not to take things for granted, right
Speaker 1: to live every moment. Yeah, yeah, that's a tough one.
Speaker 1: It is quite a few past days has an apend.
Speaker 1: Whether you knew him or not. I mean, but we
Speaker 1: all feel like we we knew him because we watched him.
Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, perform well, coming up at thirty, coming
Speaker 1: up at thirty two minutes after the hour. Um, you know, Steve,
Speaker 1: I think you've opened up something here. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: family and not taking your blessings for granted. We'll do
Speaker 1: that right after this. You're listening, Well, guys, we are all,
Speaker 1: like we mentioned, we're all still in shock about the
Speaker 1: death of Kobe Bryant and his daughter, uh and seven
Speaker 1: others that we're in that helicopter. Did you, guys, you know,
Speaker 1: just asking, did you, guys spend the day? Did you
Speaker 1: of course you thought about it. Did you talk to
Speaker 1: your family? Did you tell people you love them? Um?
Speaker 1: And just think about it? You know your life? Did
Speaker 1: it make you reflect? How did you spend the day? Steve?
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean yeah, I mean yesterday I was
Speaker 1: just a dish rag. You know, it was nothing. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean that's all it is. You know,
Speaker 1: of course, you know your family texts, you know, having
Speaker 1: having a get together before me and me and me
Speaker 1: and my girl leave for the Super Bowl. Uh. But
Speaker 1: you know it's just I mean, you know, everybody said,
Speaker 1: you know, you know, hey, we got to get together
Speaker 1: more often. You never know, you know, all of that.
Speaker 1: But you know, I what what I what I told
Speaker 1: everybody was it my family. I said, look, man, don't
Speaker 1: don't just do this cause it cause that happened. You know,
Speaker 1: if y'all not gonna do this, on going, don't do this,
Speaker 1: don't do this all calls Kobe gone, little momentum thing
Speaker 1: that I see building up here, this ain't gonna be real. Then,
Speaker 1: you know, let's just go on and just get just
Speaker 1: just be however you really gonna be. You know, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: so my key is okay, but yeah, you know, but
Speaker 1: I would revenue, yeah, yeah, I'd rather us do that.
Speaker 1: Didn't this you know, hell, this ain't Christmas, right, yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: you know we're gonna put the tree up halves from gifts.
Speaker 1: See you next year, you know. Yeah, I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: with you. You should mean it. If you tell someone
Speaker 1: you love them, you forgive them, you definitely should mean
Speaker 1: it and make it a rule. You know, if you
Speaker 1: truly love that person, you know, let them know absolutely,
Speaker 1: let them know. I do it. You know, I trying
Speaker 1: to get the phone without telling uh, you know my
Speaker 1: friends or family members love you, okay, love you love
Speaker 1: you really mean it though, Yeah, were you saying, Carla,
Speaker 1: I was saying yesterday. You know, Tasha was telling me
Speaker 1: how it affected them at school, the kids, you know,
Speaker 1: she's twelve, and the kids, their teachers were you know,
Speaker 1: I was talking to them about it, and they said
Speaker 1: some of the kids they were crying. Some of the boys,
Speaker 1: you know, they were huge fans. And it reminded me
Speaker 1: of what you were saying, Steve yesterday. This is their Jordan.
Speaker 1: You know, these little kids they loved Kobe Bryant. And
Speaker 1: Tasha said a lot of the boys at school were
Speaker 1: crying and they were in the lunch room at lunchtime
Speaker 1: chatting Kobe Kobe, and they were playing basketball. Tasha was like,
Speaker 1: I think I want to play basketball because the girl
Speaker 1: didn't know how to play. Momas I took the ball
Speaker 1: from I was dribbling. You know, they were really having
Speaker 1: a good time and celebrating basketball, and it's just it
Speaker 1: was refreshing to hear how his legacy affected these kids
Speaker 1: and how they wanted to keep going and keep playing.
Speaker 1: And remember, you know, Kobe and they, you know, they
Speaker 1: were talking about gig and it was. It was a
Speaker 1: lot yesterday, a lot of emotional stuff going on. I
Speaker 1: think it's going to inspire a new generation of basketball players.
Speaker 1: Really really gonna some kids out there that really want
Speaker 1: to play this game. Yeah, that'll be good for his legacy.
Speaker 1: And and you know, not only was he you know,
Speaker 1: has he inspired too many people to play basketball, but
Speaker 1: he played at such a high level. I mean everything
Speaker 1: he did was excellent. Yeah, he I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: for me, for me, for me personally, the takeaway for
Speaker 1: me simply was, you just don't know when this, this could,
Speaker 1: this that we often take for granted can slip away
Speaker 1: and be gone in the blink of an eye. I mean,
Speaker 1: that was to takeaway for me. I don't care old
Speaker 1: people play basketball. Look, if you're not gifted to play basketball,
Speaker 1: don't don't don't, don't don't do that. Don't don't don't. Yeah, don't,
Speaker 1: that's not what you do. You're not fitting to beat Kobe.
Speaker 1: You know. Now, is there another Kobe in the making somewhere?
Speaker 1: Of course, sure of course it is. And for that
Speaker 1: boy girl, I'm not talking to them, I'm talking to Restie. Y'all.
Speaker 1: Don't here you go you know who you and you
Speaker 1: just got a ball. Hey, man, this ain't what you
Speaker 1: if you ain't a league by now? Man, you know,
Speaker 1: if you ain't ever thought of basketball now, Kobe gone,
Speaker 1: Now you ain't. No, No, that's not what I'm looking at.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at what what What it made me think about?
Speaker 1: Like when my wife leave the house and she's trying
Speaker 1: to s running to the store and she just left,
Speaker 1: the fact that anything can happen, That's what I think about. Man,
Speaker 1: That's that's just on my mind all the phone with you. No,
Speaker 1: I don't. I can't take it for granted that that
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk to my mom again, you know, I
Speaker 1: just think about it. Yeah. I used to make a
Speaker 1: rule that, you know, never argue or get into any arguments,
Speaker 1: like before you have to take a trip or something
Speaker 1: like that, you know, or get in the car. Just
Speaker 1: don't do it. Try to resolve it if you can.
Speaker 1: Try to resolve it if you can, because you just
Speaker 1: never know, you just you know, you never know. And
Speaker 1: it makes it even more clear, you know now that
Speaker 1: we've lost um Kobe. Yeah, sure, I even know couples
Speaker 1: that don't fly together, you know, and people don't want
Speaker 1: to be on the together in case anything can go wrong.
Speaker 1: Oh oh oh yeah, yeah they have I'll get there
Speaker 1: at this point, She'll get there at that point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I never do. I used to want to have me
Speaker 1: and my family altogether. Right, yeah, Well, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: take any extra precautionary measures because of this incident, because
Speaker 1: one thing about it, when it's your time, it will
Speaker 1: be your time, you know. Uh just had that that move,
Speaker 1: like we were talking off the air. You know, it's
Speaker 1: it's just it's such a tough way. But this is

Speaker 1: basic part that's really You don't tell me that's favor,
Speaker 1: that's that really is Yeah, because somebody should have walked
Speaker 1: up on you and been stomping you by now. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: you Timmy, why y'all a little heavy with this? Just
Speaker 1: feel tense right now? It's this. I don't have prank tension.
Speaker 1: You know, y'all gonna cloud my creativity. Don't do it.
Speaker 1: You don't have prank tension. Did you listen to the
Speaker 1: reaction to these people they got talking about their kids.
Speaker 1: They're pastor, the wife, actor, the church, the wife. Yeah,
Speaker 1: wait till the next hour, all right, listen. Coming up
Speaker 1: at the top of the hour, we'll have some entertainment
Speaker 1: and national news for you right after this. You're listening
Speaker 1: to show. The NBA has officially postponed tonight to Lakers
Speaker 1: versus Clippers game at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: This is all, of course, out of respect for the
Speaker 1: Lakers organization, which is reeling as we all are, from
Speaker 1: the death of Kobe Bryant. The decision was made out
Speaker 1: of respect for the Lakers organization, which is deeply grieving
Speaker 1: the tragic loss of Lakers legend Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna,
Speaker 1: and seven other people that were in the helicopter crash
Speaker 1: on Sunday. The NBA set in a statement the game
Speaker 1: will be Excuse me, I need some water. The game
Speaker 1: will be rescheduled at a later date. Lebron James was
Speaker 1: seen sobbing and crying when he got off the Lakers
Speaker 1: team playing at lax on Sunday following a game in
Speaker 1: Brooklyn against the net. Several players, staffers, and other Lakers employees,
Speaker 1: many of whom have known Kobe four years, are simply
Speaker 1: inconsolable and just not ready to go to work. They're
Speaker 1: just not ready to do it right now. Of course,
Speaker 1: we know that Kobe played for the Lakers for twenty
Speaker 1: years and built lasting relationships with so many people. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's those These are the people that knew him. You know,
Speaker 1: it hit the people that didn't know him. I think
Speaker 1: I think that we're learning more and more that he
Speaker 1: not only had an epic career, but this brother had
Speaker 1: built an epic life. I think that's what a lot
Speaker 1: of people are coming away with him because like even
Speaker 1: the pictures, the big pictures that put up on the billboards,
Speaker 1: you know, the chromatic billboards outside of the latent, Yeah,
Speaker 1: none of them are him in a basketball jersey. It's
Speaker 1: him in a suit, you know, which is saying it
Speaker 1: just just him the man, Yeah, not the player. The
Speaker 1: man is missing. And I think that I'm even learning.
Speaker 1: Of course, you know, I knew him, but we weren't
Speaker 1: like I said, we weren't. We didn't have each other
Speaker 1: sale number, we didn't never called each other just every
Speaker 1: time we saw each other, we had we had a
Speaker 1: we had a mutually respectful conversation. I was complimentary of him.
Speaker 1: He was always complimenting me whenever we saw each other
Speaker 1: and Steve. I turned around. One time it was him,
Speaker 1: I said, Moonber. He turned around this me and like
Speaker 1: I said, last time I saw him was not at
Speaker 1: this past World Series, but the time before, and we
Speaker 1: both had seats like right on the front road, right
Speaker 1: behind the dugout or the Boston Red Sox. At last
Speaker 1: time I saw him and his wife, and you know,
Speaker 1: it was just cool. I was leaving. My wife, said Steve.
Speaker 1: That's kovid, he said, Steve. I went out there in front,
Speaker 1: you know a lot of people looking and stuff, you know,
Speaker 1: hugged him, shook his head and asking how the family
Speaker 1: is doing, hugged his wife. That was the last time
Speaker 1: I ever spoke to the buzz. So I'm not sitting
Speaker 1: up here trying to perpetrate like he was close friends,
Speaker 1: because we weren't. But what I'm learning even more and
Speaker 1: more is what I used to compliment him more about
Speaker 1: he really pulls his life together. I'm learning more and
Speaker 1: more of how great of a man he was community wise,
Speaker 1: and especially as a father father. I didn't know how
Speaker 1: involved he was in women's basketball. I just you know,
Speaker 1: and I'm just learning a lot more about him, which
Speaker 1: is really really cool. Yeah. And one other thing I
Speaker 1: heard that you guys had in common, Steve, They said
Speaker 1: Kobe liked to dress. You mentioned he had. They showed
Speaker 1: pictures of him not in a basketball uniform, ball and
Speaker 1: they said he liked to dress. He was into clothes,
Speaker 1: He liked cigars, you know, things like that. He was
Speaker 1: a champion for women's sports. You know. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: just a great guy all around. Um. Well, we're gonna
Speaker 1: move on now and time to get caught up the
Speaker 1: state with miss Anne. Ladies and gentlemen, miss Anne trip
Speaker 1: do you thank you? This is Awer with the news. Everybody,
Speaker 1: Good morning. Well, authorities say they've removed three bodies from
Speaker 1: the Calabasas, California's site where Kobe Bryant's helicopter went down
Speaker 1: Sunday morning, but they're not saying which bodies, although they
Speaker 1: have identified everybody now on board. Members of the National
Speaker 1: Transportation Safety Board they're there. They say the craft was
Speaker 1: not equipped with a black box, which they say was
Speaker 1: not required, but there was. They say an iPad used
Speaker 1: for the flight's itinerary, the weather conditions, and some other
Speaker 1: things that they're going to be studying and trying to
Speaker 1: put together. The NTSB also asking the public for photos
Speaker 1: of the area of the crash to determine what the
Speaker 1: conditions were like. Meanwhile, the La County Sheriff's office has
Speaker 1: set up a perimeter around the crash site with offices
Speaker 1: on horseback and on all terrain vehicles to keep the
Speaker 1: curious away because even they contaminate the scene and just
Speaker 1: really messed stuff up. They'd say. The last transmission, by
Speaker 1: the way, from Kobe's pilot was a statement that he
Speaker 1: was climbing to avoid some thick cloud and apparently he
Speaker 1: was told it he was too low at this point
Speaker 1: and he should watch out. The National Transportation and Safety
Speaker 1: Boards says their people are going to be there for
Speaker 1: about five days. They still are not completely sure what happened,
Speaker 1: but they're still piecing it together. So I don't want
Speaker 1: to say they said this or they say that. Oh. Thus,
Speaker 1: just so as you know, the NBA is inducted Kobe
Speaker 1: posthumously into the NBA Hall of Fame. All the formalities
Speaker 1: have been waived. He is in, they say. And also
Speaker 1: there's a petition out there to make Kobe Bryant shadow
Speaker 1: the new symbol of the NBA, replacing Jerry West. I
Speaker 1: don't know if that's going to fly very well, but
Speaker 1: we'll see. You know. Let people have a lot of
Speaker 1: respect for Jerry West as well. Now that it's a
Speaker 1: GOP's chance to defend President Trump against impeachment, they suddenly
Speaker 1: find themselves on an increased pressure to call former National
Speaker 1: Security Advisor John Bolton to testify, even though Majority Leader
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell's been firm about not considering any new information.
Speaker 1: Things might be about to change, though Senate Minority Leader
Speaker 1: Charles Schumer says the why of it is simple. According
Speaker 1: to The New York Times, Ambassador Bolton wrote in his
Speaker 1: book that he was ordered by the President to continue
Speaker 1: freezing assistance until Ukraine announced the political investigations the president
Speaker 1: was seeking, including the investigation into the Bidens. Ambassador Bolton
Speaker 1: essentially confirms the President committed the offenses charged in the
Speaker 1: first article of impeachment. We have a witness with first
Speaker 1: hand evidence of the President's actions for which he is
Speaker 1: on trial. He is ready and willing to testify anyone
Speaker 1: who says the House case lacks eyewitnesses and then votes
Speaker 1: to prevent eyewitnesses from testifying is talking out of both
Speaker 1: sides of their mouth. At least two GOP senators reportedly
Speaker 1: feeled that revelations in Bolton's soon to be published book
Speaker 1: or make his testimony crucial. At least two more Republicans, though,
Speaker 1: are needed to overrule McConnell's witness shutouts, So we'll see
Speaker 1: how that goes. Finally, today is National Daisy Day. Like
Speaker 1: in the words of Dark Holiday, I guess you're a
Speaker 1: daisy if you do to him, you know daisy. Now
Speaker 1: back to the Steve Harvard Morning Show. You're listening to
Speaker 1: show Well, Saturday kicks off Black History Month, and on

Speaker 1: I know you guys get this one. King, I have
Speaker 1: a dream, that's right, So I mean, you know, to
Speaker 1: sum it all up, we are truly amazing. All right,
Speaker 1: that's it. Yeah, that's it. Where's the most searched prank
Speaker 1: called that ain't in there? No, got to be kidding me,
Speaker 1: that that ain't on the on the paper. No, all right,
Speaker 1: we'll be back with more. You got to be kidding
Speaker 1: right after this. You're listening to show Kobe Bryant's helicopter
Speaker 1: pilot misjudged the terrain and didn't slow down. That's what
Speaker 1: some pilots are saying now. Federal investigators on Monday began
Speaker 1: working to unravel the mystery of why a helicopter carrying
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant, his thirteen year old daughter, and seven other people,
Speaker 1: including teenage girls, coaches, and some members of their families,
Speaker 1: crashed into the side of a hill in Calabasa's authority
Speaker 1: said the investigation is now wide ranging, including looking at
Speaker 1: the histories of the pilot, helicopter maintenance records, and the
Speaker 1: foggy conditions, which pilots have said at a level of danger.
Speaker 1: Kobe began relying on helicopters to travel around Los Angeles
Speaker 1: so he would have more time with his four daughters,
Speaker 1: he said in a December twenty eighteen interview, He said
Speaker 1: the traffic was so bad in Los Angeles that he
Speaker 1: missed one of his daughter's school plays. Kobe also wanted
Speaker 1: to figure out a way where he could still train
Speaker 1: and stay in shape, but still not compromise family time. Wow,
Speaker 1: like you say, Steve, we keep learning more and more
Speaker 1: about what a great man and father he was. Yeah, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: just just a really really great dude. And another thing too.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you know, I haven't looked at a lot
Speaker 1: of comments, but Kobe was young and famous with money,
Speaker 1: and he had to make his mistakes in front of everybody.
Speaker 1: And you know, I think that's the thing that some
Speaker 1: of us, some people fail to realize that in this
Speaker 1: day of social media and everything that young people nowadays, man,
Speaker 1: they make mistakes and it's it's blaring, It really blares
Speaker 1: out at him. Because of social media. That's why so
Speaker 1: many young people are suffering getting cyber bullied in and
Speaker 1: and and and and and suicide, all that and and
Speaker 1: all of this. Man, because of cyber bullying and what
Speaker 1: and what that internet means to them, and it's it's
Speaker 1: it's a it's a it's just a sad state. But this,
Speaker 1: this cat grew up in the limelight in the media,
Speaker 1: and the mistakes he made were just magnified. You know, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they were they were talking about today. You know, he
Speaker 1: wasn't perfect. I want I was just screaming at the screen.
Speaker 1: Who is Yeah? Yeah, they had had social media when

Speaker 1: and his sisters and his entire family, and praying for
Speaker 1: the other victim families, and definitely the other victims families
Speaker 1: as well, the other seven people in their families. I mean,

Speaker 1: Thank you nev subject. I never wanted to be the
Speaker 1: other woman. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a single mother and
Speaker 1: I'm at a nice guy two years ago at a
Speaker 1: local bar. I wasn't interested at first because he is
Speaker 1: significantly older than me and his overall look is completely
Speaker 1: different than what I typically like in a man. I
Speaker 1: didn't pay him much attention and I didn't give him
Speaker 1: my phone number. As I was leaving the bar, I
Speaker 1: told him how to find me on social media. Later
Speaker 1: that night, he reached out to me on Instagram and
Speaker 1: said it was great meeting me and he wanted to
Speaker 1: make sure I got home safely. He messaged me often
Speaker 1: and I would respond. I started looking forward to hearing
Speaker 1: from him daily, and we really got to know each
Speaker 1: other that way. He was very transparent and he told
Speaker 1: me that he was in a long term relationship with
Speaker 1: a great woman. His honesty made me like him even more,
Speaker 1: and I started opening up to him and we exchanged
Speaker 1: phone numbers. I agreed to meet with him just to talk,
Speaker 1: and it was good to actually see him in person
Speaker 1: after months of messages on Instagram. It was such a
Speaker 1: great meeting that I really started fall for this guy.
Speaker 1: We started meeting up more frequently in public and in private,
Speaker 1: and we eventually had sex. Nothing is changed about him
Speaker 1: and his relationship status, and he tells me that he
Speaker 1: wants to be with me. To make matters worse, his
Speaker 1: girlfriend is my sorority sister and we were at an
Speaker 1: event together recently. I have never met her, but it's
Speaker 1: really weird. If he leaves her for me, which is
Speaker 1: what he tells me he plans to do, this could
Speaker 1: get messy. I like this guy a lot, but he's
Speaker 1: a cheater and I don't know if I would ever
Speaker 1: be able to trust him. Stephen Shirley, what should I
Speaker 1: do in this situation? Do I continue to talk to
Speaker 1: him and see what happens or run for the hills? Okay,
Speaker 1: this is one of those letters where you already know
Speaker 1: the answer before you even write in. You know what
Speaker 1: to do, You know what's going on. You didn't give
Speaker 1: us any ages or how old you are. You said
Speaker 1: just that he's significantly older than you and you liked
Speaker 1: him because he was honest with you about his long
Speaker 1: term relationship with a woman. So this can't be your
Speaker 1: man when you really think about it. I think the
Speaker 1: turn on for you it is just the fact that
Speaker 1: he's unavailable and that he says he wants you, not her.
Speaker 1: You didn't even like him at first. He's an older
Speaker 1: man who knows what to do to get you, and
Speaker 1: he has you right where he wants you. Okay, he
Speaker 1: can go home to his other woman that he's been
Speaker 1: in a relationship with a very long time, and then
Speaker 1: he has you on the side. He was honest about
Speaker 1: telling you about his other woman, but lying through his
Speaker 1: teeth about leaving her for you. All men say that
Speaker 1: it's a lot easier to leave a girlfriend than a wife.
Speaker 1: So why hasn't he left her yet? If he wants
Speaker 1: to be with you as he said so, I tell you,
Speaker 1: don't don't believe the hype. I mean, if you don't
Speaker 1: want to be the other woman, you gotta stop being
Speaker 1: the other woman, as simple as that. I mean, your feelings,
Speaker 1: you know, may be involved, but if you don't want
Speaker 1: to be that, you can stop. I say you do this,
Speaker 1: give him an ultimatum, say her or me, and see
Speaker 1: what he does. He's gonna stay right over there with her,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be the side piece like you already are.
Speaker 1: He's not gonna choose you, Steve. I never wanted to
Speaker 1: be the other woman, but you is. Let us begin.
Speaker 1: I never wanted to be the other woman, but you is.
Speaker 1: I'm a single mother. Met this nice guy a couple
Speaker 1: of years ago at a local ball the right hill.
Speaker 1: These are old people who meets at a local bar.
Speaker 1: She's on too. Yeah, who meets at a local bar?
Speaker 1: A local bar? Don't nobody go to taverns? No more,
Speaker 1: don't nobody go to the bar up the street? Yeah,
Speaker 1: these deeds both these old people? She old? He old?
Speaker 1: Uh because two years ago, at two years ago, they
Speaker 1: met at a local bar. Who meets at a bar?
Speaker 1: Young people club? And now? Who as a bar? Just
Speaker 1: a local bar where the locals go to? When the
Speaker 1: last time you heard that, I wasn't interested first because
Speaker 1: he's significantly older. He an old ass dude over the bar,
Speaker 1: had a cigarette, a drink, a short, stingy brim on,
Speaker 1: and then you know he overlooked. He completely different to
Speaker 1: what I typically like it. I ain't paying much attention,
Speaker 1: and I get my phone number if I was leaving
Speaker 1: the bar. I told him how to find me on
Speaker 1: social media. She probably said, I'm on my Space he said,
Speaker 1: I still old old. Yeah, yeah, that's probably that. He
Speaker 1: reached out to Instagram, said the great meet me and
Speaker 1: wanted to make sure I got home safely. That's another
Speaker 1: old ass statement. You know how old you got to
Speaker 1: be to make sure a woman get home safely? You
Speaker 1: got to be old do young people don't do that, Steve, No,
Speaker 1: that's an old dude statement. I just want call and
Speaker 1: make sure you got home safe in it. That's an
Speaker 1: old playoff statement. Right, well, we come back. I got
Speaker 1: the rest of this letter for you. All right, We'll
Speaker 1: have part two coming up at twenty three minutes after
Speaker 1: the hour. Today's Strawberry Letter. I never wanted to be
Speaker 1: the other woman. We'll get back into it right after this.
Speaker 1: You're listening harp show, all right, Come on, Steve, let's
Speaker 1: recap today's Strawberry Letters. Subject I never wanted to be
Speaker 1: the other woman, but you he is. These two old
Speaker 1: people met at a local bar. Local they both walk
Speaker 1: up there. I wasn't interested at first because he's significantly
Speaker 1: older than me and his overall look is completely different
Speaker 1: from what I typically like in a man. So she'd
Speaker 1: met this old dude at the ball stany brim on
Speaker 1: short sleep polo shirt bandln you know, got on, got
Speaker 1: on the long jeans, watch Stacy Adam and he dranking
Speaker 1: Brown Dun. Yeah. I didn't pay much attention. I ain't
Speaker 1: giving my phone number. As I was leaving, I told
Speaker 1: him how to find me on social media. Late at night,
Speaker 1: he reached out to me on Instagram and said it
Speaker 1: was great meeting me. He wanted to make sure I
Speaker 1: got home safely. That's an old school player move. Want
Speaker 1: to make sure you got hold safely. He messages me
Speaker 1: often and I would respond, so I started looking forward
Speaker 1: to hear from daily. We got to know each other.
Speaker 1: We got to know each other that way. Now here
Speaker 1: we here go the player move. They always say we're
Speaker 1: very transparent. He told me he was in a long
Speaker 1: term relationship with a great woman. Yeah. Now his honesty
Speaker 1: made me feel made me like him even more. You
Speaker 1: falling from that and I started opening up to him
Speaker 1: and y'all exchange phone numbers. These people still got house numbers, yeah,
Speaker 1: I says. I agreed to meet him just to talk
Speaker 1: and it was good to see me in person at
Speaker 1: the mons on Instagram it was a great meeting. I
Speaker 1: started falling for this guy. We started meeting up more
Speaker 1: frequently in public and private, and we eventually had sex.
Speaker 1: Nothing has changed about him and all and his relationship status.
Speaker 1: But he tells me that he wants to be with me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's how you get to be with a woman. You
Speaker 1: tell her you won't hull. But what the words? What's
Speaker 1: what's the new stuff? He tells me that he wants
Speaker 1: to be with me. We all say that, Yeah, we
Speaker 1: posted to make matters worse. His girlfriend is my sorority system.
Speaker 1: She is one of the founders. That's how old is yeah,
Speaker 1: or if she ain't the founder, her mama founder sorority.
Speaker 1: Now they both in the same serrity and they were
Speaker 1: an event together. See, I've never met her, but it
Speaker 1: was really weird. What okay, I'm confused. You all were
Speaker 1: both at an event together. I've never met her, but
Speaker 1: it was really weird. Well, she knew who she was?
Speaker 1: How she know her? Maybe he described her and you know,
Speaker 1: maybe he's told her her name something some clue. How
Speaker 1: small was this event? That's what you're worried about the
Speaker 1: size of the event. Then hold on. If he leaves
Speaker 1: her for me, which is what he tells me, he
Speaker 1: plans to do this could get messy. How's gonna get messy?
Speaker 1: Y'all in the same sorority, I don't understand. I like
Speaker 1: this guy a lot, but he's a cheetah and I
Speaker 1: don't whoah, Oh he's a Cheatah. So you think because
Speaker 1: he been in this long term relationship with this woman
Speaker 1: and he's seeing you, that that just makes him a
Speaker 1: Cheatah you don't. You don't see yourself as a Cheatah. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me let me let me break this down for
Speaker 1: you women. The number one question I get asked when
Speaker 1: I'm touring with the books and anything, Steve White, do
Speaker 1: me and cheat? Do you know what? One of my
Speaker 1: answers is because there are so many women willing to
Speaker 1: cheat with us. If you know that this man is
Speaker 1: in a long term relationship and he's been transparent about it,
Speaker 1: and you sleep with him, he's not the only cheater.
Speaker 1: You're a cheater too. I know you don't want to
Speaker 1: hear this because you own but you're a cheater too.
Speaker 1: I like this guy a lot, but he's a Cheatah.
Speaker 1: What's you? What are you? And I don't know what
Speaker 1: is you? And I don't know if I would ever
Speaker 1: be able to trust him. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: can trust you because you ain't got no problem sleeping
Speaker 1: with me, and that's already in relationships. So you're throwing
Speaker 1: this up in his face. He could throw that up
Speaker 1: in your face. Stephen Shirley, what do I do in
Speaker 1: this situation? Do I continue to talk to him and
Speaker 1: see what happens? Or run for the heels you said
Speaker 1: at the top of the letter, I never wanted to
Speaker 1: be the other woman I said you is. And then
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the letter, do I continue to
Speaker 1: talk to him and see what happens? The hell you
Speaker 1: think gonna happen? She already knows. Why wouldn't he leave
Speaker 1: her to get you when he already got you? Check?
Speaker 1: All right, Steve, thank you? Men don't do emotions. Oh lord,
Speaker 1: post your kind of done today's Jobberry. Let Steve Harvey

Speaker 1: hitting close to home for Kylie Jenner. Kylie was a
Speaker 1: frequent flyer on that particular chopper and even rented it
Speaker 1: for one of Dreams birthdays. That's her niece, Rob's daughter Dream.
Speaker 1: Kylie just broke her silence on the tragic accident that
Speaker 1: killed Kobe, his thirteen year old daughter Gianna, and seven
Speaker 1: other Sunday morning in Calabasas and said she knew the
Speaker 1: pilot and said that hug your loved ones, you know.
Speaker 1: That was That was her takeaway from it, similar to yours, Steve.
Speaker 1: Just hug your loved ones, um, you know, let them
Speaker 1: know that you love them. Multiple multiple reports are saying
Speaker 1: that one of the pilots said that the pilot on
Speaker 1: Kobe's flight was very experienced. He worked as a flight
Speaker 1: instructor and knew the area very well. So they are
Speaker 1: baffled about what went wrong. Yeah, I mean if you
Speaker 1: but if you in that fog, it's foggy. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: rough man, that's it's from. Yeah, but you know, because
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly wait for the investigation. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: they were that. Yeah. You know again, our condolencence go
Speaker 1: out to everyone involved. Um, and we'll have more of
Speaker 1: the Steve Harvey Morning Show and some trending news coming
Speaker 1: up at thirty three minutes after the hour. That's right, Um,
Speaker 1: right after this you're listening to. The NBA has officially
Speaker 1: postponed tonight to Lakers versus Clippers game at the Staples
Speaker 1: Center in Los Angeles. This is all, of course, out
Speaker 1: of respect for the Lakers organization, which is reeling as
Speaker 1: we all are, from the death of Kobe Bryant. The
Speaker 1: decision was made out of respect for the Lakers organization,
Speaker 1: which is deeply grieving the tragic loss of Lakers legend
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and seven other people that
Speaker 1: were in the helicopter crash on Sunday. The NBA set
Speaker 1: in a statement the game will be rescheduled at a
Speaker 1: later date. Lebron James was seen sobbing and crying when
Speaker 1: he got off the Lakers team playing at lax On
Speaker 1: Sunday following a game in Brooklyn against the Nets, Several players, staffers,
Speaker 1: and other Lakers employees, many of whom have known Kobe
Speaker 1: four years, are simply inconsolable. Of course, we know that
Speaker 1: Kobe played for the Lakers for twenty years and built
Speaker 1: lasting relationships with so many people. These are the people
Speaker 1: that knew him, you know, it hit the people that
Speaker 1: didn't know him. I think that we're learning more and
Speaker 1: more that he not only had an epic career, but
Speaker 1: this brother had built an epic life. I think that's
Speaker 1: what a lot of people are coming away with him
Speaker 1: because like even the pictures, the big pictures that put
Speaker 1: up on the billboards, you know, the chromatic billboards outside
Speaker 1: of the lat Yeah, none of them are him in
Speaker 1: a basketball jersey. It's him in a suit, you know,
Speaker 1: which is saying just him the man, not the player.
Speaker 1: The man is missing. And I think that I'm even learning.
Speaker 1: Of course, you know, I knew him, but we weren't
Speaker 1: like I said, we weren't. We didn't have each other
Speaker 1: sale number, we didn't never called each other just every
Speaker 1: time we saw each other. We had we had a
Speaker 1: we had a mutually respectful conversation. I was complimentary of him.
Speaker 1: He was always complimented with me whenever we saw each other,
Speaker 1: and stay, I turned around. One time it was him,
Speaker 1: I said, Momber. He turned around his meat And like
Speaker 1: I said, last time I saw him was not at
Speaker 1: this past World Series, but the time before, and we
Speaker 1: both had seats like right on the front road, right
Speaker 1: behind the dug out of the Boston Red Sox. And
Speaker 1: last time I saw him and his wife, and you know,
Speaker 1: it was just cool. I was leaving. My wife, said Steve.
Speaker 1: That's kobd. He said, Steve. I went out there in front,
Speaker 1: you know a lot of people looking and stuff, you know,
Speaker 1: hugged him, shook his head and asking how the family
Speaker 1: is doing, hugged his wife. That was the last time
Speaker 1: I ever spoke to it. But so I'm not sitting
Speaker 1: up here trying to perpetrate like we was close friends,
Speaker 1: because we weren't. But what I'm learning even more and more,
Speaker 1: it's what I used to compliment him more about. He
Speaker 1: really pulls his life together. I'm learning more and more
Speaker 1: of how great of a man he was community wise
Speaker 1: and especially as a father. All right, coming up our
Speaker 1: last break of the day, and some closing remarks from
Speaker 1: the one and only Steve Harvey at forty nine minutes
Speaker 1: after the hour, right after this. You're listening, all right, Steve.
Speaker 1: Here we are our last break of the day. Wow,
Speaker 1: we got through it. We got through it. Yeah another
Speaker 1: day yeah yeah, lessons m h for sure. Um yeah.
Speaker 1: And to get us through the rest of the day.
Speaker 1: Here's Steve with our closing remarks were today, Steve. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, Um, I know, I know everybody's focused on
Speaker 1: the tragedy, but I want to go a different way here.
Speaker 1: I want to remind everybody that all of us who
Speaker 1: are here still have so much to live for events
Speaker 1: as tragic as what happened to Kobe and his daughter
Speaker 1: and other the people on that helicopter. And like I
Speaker 1: said earlier, I am not one of those people who
Speaker 1: pretend to know what God's will is or why God
Speaker 1: does things sometimes the way he does, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I've questioned him before when I lost my mother. I've
Speaker 1: learned over years to not even question it because it's
Speaker 1: really unapproachable. He's beyond reproach and I don't claim to
Speaker 1: know what he does. But I do know this that
Speaker 1: when a person is taken away that was of the
Speaker 1: magnitude of this young brother, and it happened in such
Speaker 1: a tragic way. I think what it does is it
Speaker 1: makes everybody. It gets everybody's undivided attention, and however you
Speaker 1: choose to analyze it. For you, if it means calling
Speaker 1: somebody that you love and making sure you touch base
Speaker 1: with them, or becoming more and more aware of how
Speaker 1: fleeting life can be, or if it's made you become
Speaker 1: more grateful and appreciative of where you are and who
Speaker 1: you are. However it has affected you, this one had
Speaker 1: a massive effect into nationally, but we are still here,
Speaker 1: and in twenty twenty, I want to implore people to
Speaker 1: do more, get bigger dreams. Have a dream so big
Speaker 1: that in order to attain it you absolutely have to
Speaker 1: have God's help. I want to become more light in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I want the light that God has shined
Speaker 1: in me and through me to come out in a
Speaker 1: way that it becomes attractive to more people. Like hey, man,
Speaker 1: if Steve can pull himself together, if Steve can manage
Speaker 1: to keep getting back up every time it seemed like
Speaker 1: they're knocking him down, then maybe I can do it.
Speaker 1: I just want to be a more of a beacon
Speaker 1: of light to people. I want to become more spiritually
Speaker 1: connected in twenty two. In twenty twenty, I want to
Speaker 1: be more aware of my spirituality and how it might
Speaker 1: be able to help somebody else and me along the way.
Speaker 1: I want to become a better father. I want to
Speaker 1: become a better grandfather. I want to be more of
Speaker 1: a more of an even better husband, you know. I
Speaker 1: want to be a better man. I want to be
Speaker 1: a better global citizen. I want to be I want
Speaker 1: to live up to my African name or two, you see.
Speaker 1: I want to be considered an helper of people. You know.
Speaker 1: I want to improve myself on so many levels in
Speaker 1: the event that I continue to live. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: really trying to improve myself so that my state, whatever
Speaker 1: it is that's left on this earth, will be a better,
Speaker 1: more productive, and more meaningful life. I want to have
Speaker 1: a legacy of having served people, shared with people, taught people,
Speaker 1: encouraged people. I think that those things are important to
Speaker 1: all of us. If those things aren't important to you,
Speaker 1: then what is important to you. Maybe it's finally getting
Speaker 1: your dreams on track. Maybe it's finally for the first time,
Speaker 1: getting a vision boarded, writing down what you really want.
Speaker 1: Maybe you want to start the process of having a
Speaker 1: relationship with God. Maybe twenty twenty for you is maybe
Speaker 1: you want to just get under get out from under
Speaker 1: the grip of addiction. Maybe in twenty twenty, you just
Speaker 1: sick and tired of being sick and tied, and you're
Speaker 1: looking for a change, and you're trying to make a
Speaker 1: decision about your faith, whatever it is. Get started today,
Speaker 1: don't delay, don't put off tomorrow. What you can do today.
Speaker 1: You could do something towards all of your goals today.
Speaker 1: Every day you wake up is God giving you a
Speaker 1: new opportunity to make forward steps towards one of your
Speaker 1: goals or visions. Every day you get a shot, even
Speaker 1: when you get knocked down. Sometimes just get up. As
Speaker 1: long as He wakes you up, you got another shot.
Speaker 1: In so far all of us have been awaken again.
Speaker 1: Ain't God good? Those are my closing remarks. Oh dropped
