Life’s lessons can come from places you’d least expect. For instance, imagine a Roman Catholic priest who shows up every Monday morning in a skull cap to preach from the studio of a Top 40 radio station in Atlanta.
"This is Father Ricardo Bailey, coming at you live and hard core from the pulpit of Q100," he announces upon his entrance into the studio.
Such is the life for Father Bailey, who has teens and 20-somethings hanging on his every word. Father "Crunk," as he is affectionately known to the crew of Q100’s The Bert Show, is the Parochial Vicar at Holy Spirit Catholic Church.
Father Bailey has found a niche in bringing inspirational messages based on that day’s entertainment headlines. As the morning crew hits on and jokes about the usual topics of pop culture, this priest fits right in.
