About this listen
In part one of this conversation on Pretty Likkle Jacket,, Kathy sits down with her longtime friend Ricardo, with Arlene in the studio too, for a raw, funny, and heavy look at the backstory behind the guy everyone thinks has it all together. Ricardo shares what it was like growing up in the British Virgin Islands with roots in St. Kitts and Nevis, where fighting at school felt like survival and responsibility started young.
He talks about a complicated father, harsh discipline, and the family dynamics that shaped his work ethic, his outlook on relationships, and his need to protect his energy. Ricardo also opens up about witnessing abuse at home, the promises his mother asked him to keep, and how those lessons carried into adulthood, including fatherhood and caring for his mom today.
