About this listen

It’s not everyday that an interview turns into a collection of life lessons, but that is exactly what happened when comedian and radio personality Rickey Smiley spoke with Core 94! radio personality, DG Baggs.

In the discussion, Mr. Smiley shares his rules of success and the tells of how he learned them. You will hear amazing stories about when he played football, was raised by his grandparents in the south and about his internship with Mr. Steve Harvey. DG Baggs also chimes in with a flashback about getting “corrected” by another celebrity guest.

The Rules of Success are clearly expressed and even summarized by Mr. Smiley at the end of the conversation

  • Say yes ma’am and no ma’am
  • Gratitude gets you far
  • Respect Boundaries
  • Attitude equals Altitude
  • All Money ain’t good money

By the end of this interview, you will be reminded of why the people love Mr. Rickey Smiley and his no nonsense approach to manners and respect. You will also be reintroduced to a few themes of courtesy that the world seems to have forgotten.
