Speaker 5: First of all, I know you're trying to get the
Speaker 5: intro and stuff right. A lot of people don't know.
Speaker 5: Had it not been for you, it would not be
Speaker 5: the Ricky Smider Morning Show. Thanks to you and your
Speaker 5: influence and talking to Alfred and Missus Hughes when they
Speaker 5: asked a question, who would be great to fill in
Speaker 5: because y'alls going to another company'll and y'all said Ricky Snouley.
Speaker 5: So I really appreciate the opportunity, and I just try
Speaker 5: to take advantage of every opportunity that y'all have ever
Speaker 5: provided for me.
Speaker 2: So I appreciate you were shigning for everything.
Speaker 5: Well, thank you, Ricky, thank you for being a mentor
Speaker 5: and thank you for being a big brother.
Speaker 3: Well, first of all.
Speaker 4: Thank you because a lot of people get opportunities, Ricky,
Speaker 4: you know that, and they don't understand the work that's involved,
Speaker 4: because getting up every day all these years since we
Speaker 4: gave you the opportunity can be challenging, can be frustrating,
Speaker 4: and people walk away and go give half effort.
Speaker 3: But you've established your brand in radio.
Speaker 4: Tell the importanness of branding through the radio and how
Speaker 4: you impact the community other than just being a funny guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Brandon is important.
Speaker 5: One thing that does reshine to keep your name out there,
Speaker 5: keep your brand out there. If you're lucky and blessed
Speaker 5: enough to get stations like DL Steve myself different ones
Speaker 5: every hour, at least two or three times an hour
Speaker 5: your name is mentioned on the radio station. Somebody dropped
Speaker 5: in the car, they hear your name. You know that's
Speaker 5: that's good for your Brand's good for your social media.
Speaker 5: That keep your your name presence with people. At the
Speaker 5: top of the hour when they do the station I
Speaker 5: d a home of the Ricky Smiley Morning Show or whatever,
Speaker 5: and then they might play a clip or whatever. These
Speaker 5: are in cars while people driving to work getting off work,
Speaker 5: dropping the kids, or you know, when they're flipping radio station,
Speaker 5: they hear your name. So when you show up at
Speaker 5: a comedy club or whatever, it hurts your name so
Speaker 5: much and it's a build up. People pay money and
Speaker 5: they stand the line and they come out to see you.
Speaker 5: Because it's not a lot of people that do radio
Speaker 5: that still perform other than d L and myself that.
Speaker 2: Have their own show, syndicated show.
Speaker 4: Now, that's that's important that the business side see. I've
Speaker 4: met Ricky Smiley.
Speaker 3: Web back when he was just a young comedian that
Speaker 3: wanted to be on stage to tell Joe. Now I'm
Speaker 3: here Ricky Smile and the business man.
Speaker 4: When did that part of Ricky Smile has started going
Speaker 4: in front of the comedian.
Speaker 5: People like you cussing people out on the phone every
Speaker 5: other week. Yah yeah, yeah. I want everybody that's watching
Speaker 5: this interview to see that this a very classy and
Speaker 5: pleasant interview. As a matter of fact, when I came
Speaker 5: on the interview, I had on a Nike T shirt
Speaker 5: and Rashaan cursed at me and told me I need
Speaker 5: to go put on a suit coat. Tired or told
Speaker 5: them that, so I had to run run back to
Speaker 5: my room and get dressed. People don't understand the relationship
Speaker 5: without listen. You have to have somebody to coach you,
Speaker 5: and coaching don't have to be kind. Nick Saban holler
Speaker 5: at those guys all day, cussing out all week, but
Speaker 5: then they.
Speaker 2: Hold up the SEC championship at the end of the day. Day.
Speaker 5: And if you don't have anybody mentoring you, somebody saying, hey,
Speaker 5: go put on a shirt. Hey, okay, this is a
Speaker 5: real this is an interview of our business. Go put
Speaker 5: on a shirt and tie. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: I wasn't thinking or whatever, but I just appreciate. I
Speaker 5: appreciate the correction. And Rashaana know I'm not sensitive. Get
Speaker 5: in my face, curse me. I'll tell me what I
Speaker 5: need to know. Don't let me walk around the party
Speaker 5: with nothing in my nose. Give me some tissue, tell
Speaker 5: me to go in the corner and blow my nose.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. That's that's what a real
Speaker 2: friend gonna do for you.
Speaker 5: So people like yourself one of my top mentors, getting
Speaker 5: at me about certain things and certain stuff on like
Speaker 5: you'll call me if you see something on social media
Speaker 5: saying hey, you, you should reconsider that you maybe you
Speaker 5: should take that down.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about that. Hell, you don't know unless you
Speaker 2: have a coach. So I just appreciate everything.
Speaker 5: But that's what turned you into a business, and having
Speaker 5: a coach and having correction.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: Well, you know your hometown guy, you know, and I've
Speaker 4: been down to your house and I'm a let everybody
Speaker 4: know when you come to Ricky Smiley house, come home, gry,
Speaker 4: come homewark because.
Speaker 3: He gets mad if you don't understand that.
Speaker 4: He's you're coming to a hidden chef because if he
Speaker 4: didn't do the RICKSI Morning Show, he'd be doing Ricky
Speaker 4: Smiley Cooking Show.
Speaker 3: Tell us about that. He's gonna walk you through the house.
Speaker 3: He gonna take you out in the garage, show you
Speaker 3: that extra refrigerator.
Speaker 2: He gonna show you.
Speaker 3: The shelves that looked like walmart Ricky. I love that.
Speaker 2: Talk about the chicken and dumplins something I know.
Speaker 3: So what did what did the cooking training come from?
Speaker 3: What did that? I know you down home? Both tell
Speaker 3: us about that.
Speaker 5: Rason, I'm the oldest grand child, so I had to
Speaker 5: help my grandma. You know, people would drop aunts and
Speaker 5: uncles would drop their kids at my grandmother's for the summer,
Speaker 5: so I had to help my grandmother prepare meals. I
Speaker 5: got that kind of figuring out, like, well, why are
Speaker 5: you doing that like that? Why don't you do that
Speaker 5: like this? And and then this started making sense to
Speaker 5: my grandmoma, you know, so I started getting in there.
Speaker 5: And then it got to a point where my grandmother
Speaker 5: got tired of argument and the kitchen. She said, well,
Speaker 5: you where you cook the meal, will you go in
Speaker 5: there and take out the part ropes? And I started
Speaker 5: adding my own little seasonings and spices and.
Speaker 2: Stuff too it.
Speaker 5: And then it got to a point where my grandmother
Speaker 5: wouldn't cook anymore. As a matter of fact, when my
Speaker 5: grandparents got older, I would cook a lot of food.
Speaker 5: At the beginning of the week, my grandparents would come
Speaker 5: over with tougher wear bowls.
Speaker 2: And then they would have dinner. For the rest of
Speaker 2: the week.
Speaker 5: I would cook for myself and both set for my
Speaker 5: grandparents and we would divide the food.
Speaker 2: Just before they all passed away, and.
Speaker 5: They just really didn't have to cook anymore, so they
Speaker 5: would warm up stuff.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: I just love to cook, and I started adding my
Speaker 5: own little twisting and flavor to it. So I learned
Speaker 5: how to get down and get down. Plus I'm trained
Speaker 5: by an executive chef. I am trained Kurt Boudreaux, chef
Speaker 5: Gennar Uh. They are giving me some wonderful recipes and
Speaker 5: gotten in the kitchen with me and taught me a
Speaker 5: lot of techniques and a lot of things about seasoning
Speaker 5: and flavoring and making sure that your food is good,
Speaker 5: you know, helping me, coaching me in and cooking.
Speaker 4: So but I share a name like pastor body there's
Speaker 4: into Burman and market. Not trying to connect the two.
Speaker 4: But church church, you are a church boar. You start
Speaker 4: your show every day with a gospel song. Why is
Speaker 4: that important?
Speaker 3: Ricky?
Speaker 2: Uh? First of all, shout out the past.
Speaker 5: Uh uh uh Pastor Mike, Uh, he lived, he lived
Speaker 5: one street over.
Speaker 2: Her right there. Let me show Let me show you

Speaker 5: You know you know sign before we eat before black folks,
Speaker 5: before we eat, we honor God. Before we travel, we

Speaker 5: before you do a morning show, you don't know what
Speaker 5: kind of date somebody's having, what kind of morning somebody's having.
Speaker 2: You don't know what somebody went through that night.
Speaker 5: And I always told God, if I ever had my
Speaker 5: own morning show, I was gonna always open up and
Speaker 5: on him. So those first fifteen minutes on my morning show,
Speaker 5: I'm giving you, giving God the praise that he deserved,
Speaker 5: woke us up this morning and closed on our right mind.
Speaker 5: Things might not be perfect, but we just putting a
Speaker 5: lot of hope in people giving you know, and God

Speaker 4: and what value he was going to bring and has
Speaker 4: been bringing to the table the last two decades of
Speaker 4: being on the radio.
Speaker 3: He didn't see that back then, but I think he

Speaker 8: Yeah, don't forget my hometown in Houston now, yes, yes,
Speaker 8: we're definitely in Houston on a big station in Houston.
Speaker 2: As a matter of.
Speaker 4: Fact, Now, book are rumors that Ricky Smileley wants to
Speaker 4: be an author. I said it in the credits for
Speaker 4: the Next Level talk about that I wrote one.
Speaker 5: Book called stand By Your Truth. I just wrote another book.
Speaker 5: I'm so excited about it. And if I'm not mistaking
Speaker 5: this topic that I mean, the title is going to
Speaker 5: be side Show. Uh you remember show step step right
Speaker 5: up her Hey can't afford to pass it by, but guaranteed.
Speaker 2: So it shows the happy side and the sad side.
Speaker 5: Considering that twenty twenty twenty three, I had something to
Speaker 5: go on with all.
Speaker 2: Of my kids.
Speaker 5: My oldest son passed away, my daughter gave birth, and
Speaker 5: both of my younger two kids graduated college in one
Speaker 5: graduate college and pledge.
Speaker 2: AKA.
Speaker 5: So it's been it's been twenty twenty three has been.
Speaker 2: It's been like that.
Speaker 5: I've been dealing with depression, sadness, anxiety.
Speaker 2: Losing a child is.
Speaker 5: Something I would never wish on anybody. This time of year,
Speaker 5: you know, the holidays are are really hard. I've been
Speaker 5: getting therapy twice a week, learning how to sit in
Speaker 5: my feelings instead of just finding something to do and
Speaker 5: blocking it out of my head.
Speaker 2: Because it's still there.
Speaker 5: It's a possible, and it's gonna come out one way
Speaker 5: or the other. So I had to learn how to
Speaker 5: sit in my feelings and just sit right here in
Speaker 5: this chair about this fireplace and cry it out.
Speaker 2: And I'm talking about sitting in this house.
Speaker 5: If you was a fly on the wall and saw
Speaker 5: me sit by myself at this table and cry for
Speaker 5: hours in hours and just just cry, you know, trying
Speaker 5: to get that, get that out of my system. Because
Speaker 5: losing a kid or shunning the bills don't stop coming.
Speaker 5: I still got to get up the new radio because
Speaker 5: other people have lost kids.
Speaker 2: Also. My son was thirty two.
Speaker 5: But I did carry ok last night and there was
Speaker 5: a lady and her husband sitting in the audience just
Speaker 5: trying to enjoy the husband's birthday because they got to
Speaker 5: bury there of twenty five year old son Saturday. So
Speaker 5: who are you, Who are you not to get up
Speaker 5: and get on the radio and inspire somebody just because
Speaker 5: you suffered the loss from people going through worse twenty
Speaker 5: five my son, God gave me.
Speaker 2: I look at it like God gave me.
Speaker 5: Extra years because my son could have died when he
Speaker 5: was twenty five.
Speaker 2: He could have died when he was seventeen, you know,
Speaker 2: And a lot of time.
Speaker 5: Man, God, all of this stuff, at the end of
Speaker 5: the day is a test. How are you going to
Speaker 5: handle this situation?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 5: You gonna make this situation about you? Are you gonna
Speaker 5: use the situation to get better, to get close of
Speaker 5: the God, bring other people close to the God, and
Speaker 5: help other people with their situation. And so my son
Speaker 5: died on a Sunday. They told me to take as
Speaker 5: much time as I need. That Wednesday, I was back
Speaker 5: on the air and I cried in between the songs.
Speaker 5: I cried doing Mercy Break, but I thugged it out
Speaker 5: and I stayed on the radio and did what I.
Speaker 2: Had to do.
Speaker 5: And I went and served the homes at the Salvation
Speaker 5: Army that Wednesday before his funeral. I thank God for
Speaker 5: carrying me. I thank God for keeping me. I thank God.
Speaker 5: If I never knew God.
Speaker 2: A day of my life, I knew him January.
Speaker 5: To twenty ninth, twenty twenty three. Because I didn't do
Speaker 5: it by myself. God was carrying me. I couldn't walk
Speaker 5: down the hall to get to the elevator to get
Speaker 5: on the plane to get the Birnham.
Speaker 2: I said God, if I can make it.
Speaker 5: Down the hall, from my door to the elevator at
Speaker 5: my apartment Complax in Dallas.
Speaker 2: If you let me make it to the elevator.
Speaker 5: I can make it because I promised God I was
Speaker 5: about to pass out, and that's a fact.
Speaker 3: I'm glad he allowed me that honest moment.
Speaker 4: That's why I didn't want to interrupt, because our relationship
Speaker 4: is about honesty. Our relationship about the truth. Let me
Speaker 4: tell you the truth about this man. Incredible family, incredible father, parent.
Speaker 3: I love it. Hey, Ricky, smile again.
