“True country music is honesty, sincerity
and real life to the hilt.”

This Week's Speaker: Cadillac Jack
Atlanta Morning Radio Icon
 
 
 
Cadillac Jack, known as “Caddy" to his friends had been on the radio with KICKS 101.5 for 26 years when he departed the station in July of this year.  Little did he know that he’d be with the same station since he was 19.  It's hard to image the millions of listeners Caddy has entertained through the years.  He started as the host of "Crying, Loving or Leaving" in the evening timeslot.  Later he covered the afternoon drivetime and eventually the coveted morning drive in 2005. Caddy's television appearances included a role as Ted Phillips on ABC's Hope and Faith.  Additionally, he won an Emmy Award for his work on ABC's The Road to the CMA Music Festival.
 
Cadillac plans to share a very personal journey with the club; how he was able to morph his termination with KICKS 101.5 into the best thing that could have happened to him.  He’ll discuss how he’s promised himself to kick it up a notch as a dad, and a lesson many moms and dads can still learn. Caddy had lived in Milton since before it was Milton for 17 years with his wife, Donna, and their three children.
