So sit back, relax and get ready to be inspired by Vince the voice Bailey a true baller story. My man, how you doing.
Speaker 1:Man, I feel real good right now. Boy, you took me down memory lane there. I truly appreciate it.
Speaker 2:We truly will go there. You know a guy like you grew up in Gary, indiana. Can you talk about growing up in Gary during that time? Was that around the time of the Jackson Five? Were you hanging out with the J-5?
Speaker 1:You know Michael was a little bit older than I. We definitely knew of them. I went to Catholic school. My parents had lived in the hood but my daddy worked three jobs and mama worked at the hospital. So she sent all four of us boys to Catholic school.
Speaker 1:And uh, but the the beautiful thing. I mean I love Gary Indiana man. I grew up people that were in charge looked like me from day one. So I was born in 63. Mayor Hatcher came in in 67, first black mayor of a major US city. So the mayor, the doctors, the superintendent, folks look like me and that was inspiring. I mean it's kind of like the Obama effect. I think that was the biggest thing that kids got to see someone that looked like us, you know, looked like you, coach, you know doing things, and that was inspirational, aspirational. It taught me that you can do whatever. And so Gary was a great place to grow up. I say we went to Catholic school, so I lived in the hood but got bused, you know, with Catholic school over to the other community. So I got the best of both worlds coming up. It was a beautiful thing.
Speaker 2:You know we talk a lot about. Well, we don't hear enough of these stories about black men and particularly black fathers and the impact that they have, and they've always been, in the lives of their children. Could you talk about your three sons, four boys? Can you talk about your dad and the impact that he had on you?
Speaker 1:Well, you know it's, and I hope I don't shock you with these stories, but my dad was, again, you know, three jobs. I can recall one time I was at the basketball court and kids, you know how we did back then. You'd be called jiving on each other, shooting the dozens, what have you. And they was like man, your daddy, a garbage man. I said man, you crazy. And next thing, I know I see my father coming down the street, but he worked for the city of Gary. He worked at the Bud Company and then he had his own thing going on for the city of Gary. He worked at the bud company and then he had his own thing going on. So he was just a Jack of all trades.
Speaker 1:Um and uh raised us. Uh, pretty, I mean, mom had a Cadillac, we had the best looking house in the hood, I would say Um, but unfortunately, uh, coach, uh, and I lost my dad at the age of 17,. Uh, and you know, even fast forward to there, I lost my oldest brother in 2006, the same and one of the things that you know. I say, their lives were not in vain and it really served as fuel for me to. You know, try to help others. And so you know, I know that's a tragic thing, but at the same time, like I said, it wasn't in vain. Uh, they lived through me.
Speaker 1:My brother, uh, tony, was one of the sharpest dressing you know genius kind of guy. So still to this day, I, you know, love getting dressed up. I'll be getting dressed up later on today for an event. You know, love getting dressed up. I'll be getting dressed up later on today for an event. And but my dad was, was an inspiration man for work, work ethic and how to take care of your family, and that's what I really took away from him.
Speaker 2:Amen, you know, with that, with that baritone voice, or you were a singer back in the day did you emcee the school events?
Speaker 1:You know it's funny. You say that I didn't. I was a reader, anybody. But Vince, come up and read. It got to that point, you know, jumping out of my seat. Who wants to read? I'd be the one. And then in church, as a lector. You mentioned talent shows. I was 13 years old. This is when the light bulb went off. I was 13 years old. One of those summer jobs when you're cutting down the weeds and all that kind of thing, and we had a program at the end of the uh, summer, uh talent show and I was selected to be the mc because I was a, you know, runny mouth kind of guy, a kid, and there was a girl in the contest uh, the talent show that I liked that. She sang, coach, and she messed up and everybody started laughing at her and she started crying. So I jumped on my white horse and jumped on stage, grabbed the microphone and I was like you don't laugh at people when they make them. Everybody shut up, coach. And I said, oh my God, there's power in this microphone.
Speaker 2:Wow, that's a heck of a story. I know you got your start. What inspired you to start reading for the blind as a volunteer at United Way radio reading service, and how did that experience?
Speaker 1:shape your career. Well, I was in class. I was in college for two weeks there at Indiana University Northwest and the gentleman came into the classroom and says hey, we're looking for volunteers to work with the Tradewinds radio reading service. They need readers for the blind. And so I volunteered, signed up, went down there and, truth be told, never went back to school. I got on that microphone and started you know the newspaper ads and magazines, things like that. It was on the dial. So the neighborhood, my mom could hear me, you know way at the end of the way, at the far left end of the dial. But I was on the radio and I just found that fascinating.
Speaker 1:And then, as you mentioned, maybe a year into that, learned about public access television and went down there volunteered, learned how to work the equipment, and I did that for several years while I worked in the hospital. My mom worked in administration at the hospital, so I was always working like my dad. But I learned how to work that equipment there at the public access television station and the guys that were running it, the program director, they did some political ads or something. They got in trouble and got fired and I can see Miss Bandy coming around the corner right now in slow motion. She's there. Who know how to work this equipment? You know, there I go again. And so I was 20 years old man, you know, running the television station from my hometown and it was whoa quite an adventure. You get thrust into the local politics, you know, and, and you know, was able to highlight the local businesses and family and friends. And so the light bulb went off again, man, and I still have the tapes. They're terrible but I still got them.
Speaker 2:So, like you, hit the ground running, you know, from public access TV to radio stations, production companies and even a professional ballroom dancing emcee there's a particular topic. I want to talk to you about a special project you worked on with HBCU schools, particularly the University of Arkansas, pine Bluff. Can you talk about that project, what that meant to you?
Speaker 1:Yes, so I worked there, gary, for about three and a half years and I got married and, to be honest, we put it in a hat. My brother lived in Detroit and her sister lived in Little Rock, arkansas, and we put it in a hat and we pulled up Little Rock. So it was like the Beverly Hillbillies. I remember coming across that Mississippi River Bridge at midnight saying what have you done? But I got there and started working in radio and, uh, then I worked for the city of little rock. I was successful in radio, I did, did well. But the music, uh, had me conflicted. It was raising our boys to be good christian young men and daddy on the radio playing you know this, this music, and so I stepped away from that for for a minute. But I went to work for Comcast Cable and then I went out on my own and somewhere along that way I interacted with a mutual friend of ours, mr Henry Golat, and Henry was working with the business department there at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff and wanted to do some outreach. I was well known for working with nonprofits and organizations that help the community and he talked to me and asked me about coming to do an infomercial on the business department at the university business department at the university and we did that and it was very well received, so much so that the university asked me to come on board as the what was it? Marketing manager for the technical services department, where I was able to run the TV radio, and at that time we had the best internet on earth, again thanks to Brother Golat.
Speaker 1:This was in the late 90s, early 2000s. We had fiber and those Cisco phones and all that. We were the first, one of the first in the country, and I really I mean it was the most how could I explain it? Just fulfilling, but it was so tiring, I will tell you. You know, I did the morning show Get up, you know, but it was so tiring, I will tell you, you know, I did the morning show get up, you know, four o'clock every day, do the morning on the radio, then teach the students about uh TV in the afternoons and we did the ball games, we traveled, uh, it was an amazing experience. And then today, uh, as we fast forward. You know some of the students that worked with us. You know their careers. You know, because I came in killing. First thing I did was kill the rap on the radio station.
Speaker 1:The kids did not like Mr Bailey, coach, I'll tell you Mr Bailey is crazy, but we killed that, went to a jazz format and it became very popular and, you know, worked with the students on on content creation way before what we're talking about here today. And some of the students I stay in touch with them today. I mean I worked at espn, cnn, wendy williams show on the radio, uh, own production companies, um, and those were the ones that worked with us, you know, without just wanting to be on air. So you know we always started. First thing you're going to learn how to do is wrap cable so that you can get in somewhere. You know how to wrap that cable up and those that worked with us hats off to them today. I mean I'm so proud and they stay in touch and you know how that is, Coach, when you hear back some feedback from something you were able to impart in someone, it makes you feel real good oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:You know you mentioned about your, about your faith. Can you talk about how your faith has impacted you and helped you doing your, doing your life journey?
Speaker 1:uh, yeah, I was, uh, you know, catholic, uh, raised in Catholic school, altar boy, all that. But I think what really struck me was the part about doing unto others as you have them do unto you charity supporting. It's not politically correct now, but we would do things like walk for the retarded that's what we called it and you raised money and you had rice bowls and things like that and when you saw the impact that you could make on someone else's life, I know that could be nothing but God, and despite me, you know I will share that. You know, after losing there's, there's some time in my life that I can't remember because it was just so devastating at the time. Um, but I knew, you know God talks to you.
Speaker 1:Recently, like in the past 10 years, I'll say I was driving, coach, and doing all these things you say ballroom dance and I was the PA for the Atlanta Dream, wnba, nba, boxing, all these things. And I was driving and loud as a trumpet, he said to me it ain't about you and I said what hold on, man, and what, once that sunk into me, coach, that freed me up so much, just to go forth, you know, and I I share that in class. I'm like, hey, my hair could be sticking up like alfalfa, who cares? You're there for the message. You're there to make others you know feel good. You're there for the program, and that's the reason they call you back and that's the reason they put your name on a piece of paper called a check.
Speaker 2:That's good word. Good word there, you know. Uh, what advice would you give to young voiceover artists looking to break into the industry, and how do you think your blend of experience and personality has helped you stand out as a professional, because there's a whole lot of people out here doing this work?
Speaker 1:yes, yes, a lot of people it is. It is a hugely competitive field. You'd be surprised, but all I can say is that everywhere you go, you hear a voice Guess what Some voiceover artists did that whether it's on your cell phone, you know when you're hearing a message at the airport, even at the gas station we have Kroger here you take the, you know, lift the, pump the thing up and they'll say, hey, one more octane in your tank. You know somebody's talking to you. It's used in every arena on earth education, health care, transportation. We're talking right now, and so what I talk to my students about all the time is, first of all, mastering the network that you're in. I can get students, you know, maybe they worked in again. I can picture a lady right now who worked in aviation there at the airport, or you know transportation, and she's like I've been there 25 years and I just I got to do something else and so, wait a minute, that may be your first opportunity. As a matter of fact, I know it is because that's where I can't compete with you. I can't beat you in your network and you can't beat me in mine, but you can get started today If you go through your Rolodex again. You know, with some training, with some direction and guidance, and I've been very pleased with results of my voiceover students.
Speaker 1:You know this political season just ended. Political season is huge for voiceover artists, you know. It's like. You know, coach Tim Brown is running for third district congressman but coach don't even live in the third district, he don't like puppies. He don't like puppies and he makes babies cry. Vote for John.
Speaker 1:Hey, it's a job, you know, but it is. It is. It is used everywhere, it is wide open and for those that want to pursue and what, what really is, uh, so satisfying. In fact, yesterday I did a live uh, I like sometimes to go live when I'm doing some sessions here at the house and I do a voiceover for awards, programs like the trumpet and the stellar awards and black uh music honors. Well, the King Center here has what they call the Beloved Awards for the Community, the King Center, and one of their honorees this year is Black Voters, matter, latasha Brown and Cliff Albright, who are friends of mine and I've done work for and so they're one of the honorees. So I read the script. You know that is honoring them and, like I say, it's nothing better than to be able to do that. Over the years, man, I've been able to, you know, provide voice on Freddie Jackson, clarence Avon, bobby Brown, and then to be in the audience and see their reactions after hearing it.
Speaker 2:Man, I could go lay down somewhere, you know it's all right, you know, vince, as someone who's worked in so many different areas of media. Going back to these young people, what do you think is the most important quality for success in any creative field, cause you've been in all these different spaces?
Speaker 1:Hmm, um, you know, when I first got started in um with with public access TV, I'll say, when I first got started with public access TV I was the young whippersnapper. I'm the young kid. There were older men who were running things and they were the stars and to be honest, they did not treat me very nicely. I was that maybe got on their nerves or I don't know what the deal was at the time. But I learned just to be stay humble. I fooled them. I say, look, I just I hold your cue card, sir, I just want to be stay humble. I fooled him. I say, look, I just I hold your cue card, sir, I just want to be on the set and be there. You know, hang in there. And I mean, it lasted. That was like, I say, two, two and a half three years where you know, I was a grunt or, you know, just did whatever I needed to do to be in that space. I needed to do to be in that space and then that day happened when they were no longer in charge. And I'm only 20 years old, you know. So for young people, I advise you to stick with it If that is something that's really in your heart and your passion to stick with it.
Speaker 1:I like to share a story when I worked for the city of Little Rock. So when we moved I ended up there at the city of Little Rock a little later on running the government channel, and then I went out on my own. So I had a lot of inside knowledge and one of the first contracts that I got was with the city. As I was saying, you know, that's your inside. People cannot compete with you. You know in your Rolodex. So they knew me very well. They hired me at that time.
Speaker 1:It was a welfare to work uh, a program that had just started, and so I did a 30 minute infomercial, some radio and TV commercials and, you know, ran it on the television. As a result, 700 women in one month signed up for this program, coach. So much so the people in charge said stop running that stuff because we can't have it. You know right now. But I would be at the mall with my wife and my two little boys and Keisha Shamika, whoever would come up to me.
Speaker 1:Mr Bailey, I'm back in school. I got a car now, I got child care and I said, oh my gosh, media can make a huge difference in people's lives and so, hey, you couldn't stop me. After that, you know you couldn't stop me. Yeah, man, you know when you can use this platform as you're doing, sir, and I want to take my hat off to you and thank you and commend you. You know, to make a difference in people's lives, sometimes all it takes is a word to get a spark going and then that spark turns into a fire and there's no turning back.
Speaker 2:Yeah, as you mentioned that, my son TJ. He works in Indiana but he has this guy. A guy gave him some great advice. He told him to be seen young man. Let me tell you this be seen but not heard when you're young. Be seen working and not heard. And then he also has a motto. Tj says no job's too big, no job's too small. Tj Brown can do it all. Hey, I like that.
Speaker 1:That's still my mantra today it don't matter my question. All the time, when somebody asks me, I say what's your budget, you know? And then they'll tell me what their budget is, and sometimes that budget they say well, I got $100. You got it in your pocket right now. No, that's true, Right now. All right, let's go ahead and go get this over with.
Speaker 2:Speaking of that, about mentors as you were growing up in the industry and the business, who were some mentors in your life.
Speaker 1:Ah, mentors? Good question, I know there are, they were there. I know they were there. My older brother, dominic, has always been in my corner, the one right above me. He's always supported me as I was DJing and you know, and even times probably, when he shouldn't support him. He's a big brother, but my brother was a big influence on me.
Speaker 1:I saw people in Gary at the time they had put their pool of money together and bought a TV station in Chicago as a gentleman by the name of Irons Mr Irons, he was just a businessman who I greatly admired here in Atlanta a gentleman by the name of Julius Hollis. His brother, michael Hollis, founded Atlanta Airlines back in the day. Man, I mean a black man that started an airline and his brother is continuing the legacy and he was someone who I, as an adult, you know, look to. I could say you, everyone could be considered a mentor to me. I'm like a sponge. You know, I try to soak it in. Take away a little bit from here, a little bit from there, and how it can be an asset in my journey as well.
Speaker 2:You always try to share with men, and just particularly men. A lot of times working with young men or boys, a lot of things that they learn is not sit down and talk to them, it's caught by watching, and I know people like you watch people. I watch people. I watch older men. I watch their style, I watch how they do things, how they react, and they didn't sit down and tell me hey, tim, this is how you're supposed to do it, but I caught it. And, lord, when you catch it, watch out. Yes, it's there, it ain't going nowhere. It's there and everybody's story is there.
Speaker 1:Everybody's story, you know, is different and unique, but I, you know, like to tell and you know to embrace, you know those gifts and talents that you have. So in another world here I've worked in workforce development. First started there in Little Rock on the workforce board, workforce board and uh. And then when I got here in Georgia as well, one of the uh inspirations along that way was the job core program there in little rock.
Speaker 1:I I'm a huge fan of job core, um and and so there in little rock, I was on the board there and ended up doing some um recruitment videos for the uh three centers that were based there in Georgia and, if you will, you know that was early on. I started really liking the program and I called the gentleman who was the disciplinary guy at this center in Wachita up in the mountains and I called him and I said well, I talked to him. I said, man, I'd like to come back and talk to the students if that's possible. And he asked about faith. The next day after shooting, I was praying, coach, and he told me go back down there today. And I said what? And he said go back down there today. So I called Mr Johnson. I remember his name. I called Mr Johnson and I said, man, you know we talked yesterday. And you said, uh, I'd be okay to come back and talk to the kids. Is today a good day? He said, vince, come back, man, we have special guests here today at everything. Lord behold, I drive up there. I do my little rah-rah speech to the students.
Speaker 1:There was this little man sitting in the back of the room. Turned out. This man was the assistant director for the national forest service coach. This man said Vince Bailey, we are celebrating 40 years of Job Corps next year and I'm going to make sure we're going to sole source that video project to you. Man, I'm getting goosebumps right now, and that took me on a journey to like 12, 15 states, all up in Oregon, utah. I worked with the Cherokee tribe there in Cherokee, north Carolina, made friends down there that still last today and so you know, following that, you got to be obedient, follow that voice.
Speaker 1:You know that's telling you use your gifts and I was able to, you know, have a life-changing experience through Job Corps and through workforce investment, workforce development.
Speaker 2:That's a great story and you've got to be ready.
Speaker 1:Right now.
Speaker 2:Right now. Right now, you can't hesitate. You got to do it today, not tomorrow. That's right.
Speaker 1:That's what it says Go back to today. That's right, that's what it says.
Speaker 2:Go back to that today. Today, okay, that's good, you know, as we kind of coming around the corner here. What does the word? This is a legacy podcast where we talk about building a lifelong legacy. When you think about that word legacy, what does that word mean to you my wife, she'll push on me about this.
Speaker 1:You know, because I was having such an enjoyable time along the way in this work, and still am today, that it wasn't for me about the finance. It wasn't about, you know, trying to get rich, it was just trying to achieve and do some things. Well, now that I'm, you know, in my early 61, you know money makes a difference. However, my, my legacy, that that I like to say, is that it was able to help, you know, get the light bulb to go off for for a lot of people along the way. Um, I have two sons myself. Uh, my youngest is a doctor of mathematics. Uh, my oldest is a project manager for a great company. He's in Arizona as we speak. I wanted to make sure that they were going to be, you know good, so you know private school, and forgive me, but when they come home with a B, I say B, that's there for built.
Speaker 2:You had one job, one job.
Speaker 1:Yeah, one job, one job yeah, one job bro, so uh, but they did good scholarships and all that kind of stuff, you know. So, um, if, if, legacy, you know you ask anybody about, you know. You know vince bailey, and I want people to put a smile on their face when they think about me and that I was able to impart something in their lives, if you will. You know I have a podcast myself, black Mental Matters, and I just got my 501C3. Do a lot more in that mental health, and not just so much clinical, but just how we, as our people, process things and how we deal with life, and so I'm excited about that. That's the next journey. We did 80 episodes prior to the COVID, but coming out of this now, I think there's a lot that we can do to help people realize that they're not alone, that there are others who share the same struggle, same journey, same successes, and if we could just learn to share with each other as you do. I listened to your last with the police chief there.
Speaker 2:I really enjoyed that.
Speaker 1:I have a cousin that is a former commander for the Illinois State Troopers, so we talk about law enforcement a lot. You know how it affects our communities and how important vetting of officers and things like that are, so you know we need to discuss these things. It affects all of our lives. We need to discuss these things. It affects all of our lives and the only way we're going to get that knowledge is if we talk about it and work together to make things better.
Speaker 2:That's good stuff, you know. Lastly, as we come around the corner, you know you have this mission about making make people feel good. You know how did that come to you? What's the vision behind that? Well, I think it goes all the way back to that, that that girl on the stage back in the day, man.
Speaker 1:I mean you know she loved me after that, uh, but but I really so this is great recording. But I really love being on stage as an emcee for events because you know that's immediate and so you know who would have thought I'm 13 years now. Professional ballroom dance. I mean, I'm talking Russians. I mean, can you say Oksana Zolotorevskaya? You know names like that, but one. They love hearing their name said properly. But then B Susie. Susie, forgive me, may weigh 400 pounds, but she got that purple dress. And Susie, youie, forgive me, may weigh 400 pounds, but she got that purple dress. And Susie, you are popping and looking great and I love the way you did that cha-cha. Susie got a grin on her face from ear to ear.
Speaker 1:Or, if it's an awards program for a company, if Charlie is the janitor when it was cold outside, ladies and gentlemen, charlie was here and he made sure the heat was on. Get up here, charlie, you are number one. And here and he made sure the heat was on. Get up here, charlie, you are number one. And Charlie's happy. Everybody, you know. I mean there's again you give me goosebumps, man talking about it. It's just people. We deserve that, we deserve that and I guess that's one of the purposes that I was put on this earth for. It has afforded me an opportunity to work with diverse groups, and you know I can't thank them enough.
Speaker 2:Exactly Well, vince, as we come to the end of today's episode on Be A Baller podcast, I want to thank you for being our special guest and I want to thank you for sharing your heart and your experience in media. But, most importantly, I thank you for answering the call. When you mentioned that 13-year-old coming up on that stage, you know that's truly a blessing a lifelong ministry. It's a ministry that God's given you to make people feel good, and so I want to thank you for answering that call. And then also, I want to thank you for your commitment to empowering the next generation. You know, and we can't keep all this to ourselves. You know we got it. God called us to give it away and I thank you for being willing to give that away and sharing that so openly with the next generation.
