Regular Cast
Jason Bailey - Jason Bailey has been entertaining millions, thousands or at least those that’ll listen since 1995. He started his career in 1995 as a radio intern and powered his way up the ranks covering numerous formats like Top 40, Rock, Hot Talk and Sports Talk. Jason has worked with the WWE, TNA Wrestling, MTV, ESPN, CBS Sports, CNN, NFL Network just to name a few. His love of radio, TV as well as emceeing live events has not only put food on the table but also allowed him to voice his opinions to the masses. That being a good thing is still up for debate. This guy does radio, TV, writes, produces and at times he even sleeps. Jason has been in Atlanta since 2013, and when hes not doing radio, hes playing with small balls on the tennis court.

Southside Steve - West End Atlanta native, Steven James Rickman has rocked Atlanta for over two decades. “Southside” Steve’s career began at WRAS 88.5, The voice of Georgia State and has many stops since then including 96 ROCK, Eagle 106.7 (Yes, Southside was Country when Country wasn’t cool) and Rock 100.5. Steve’s bad boy Southern charm has earned him the opportunity and rights to and bond with NASCAR and HOOTERS’ finest at the Atlanta Motor Speedway and Daytona International Speedway for 40 plus races as well as Motocross Championships and Monster Truck events. Steve was the voice of the Atlanta Silverbacks Soccer team for 7 seasons, opened for George Carlin and Charlie at the Fox Theatre, hosted 6 Hooters International Swimsuit Competitions in Vegas and Miami, and is the only person in Atlanta that we know of to sit in every one of the 18,000 plus seats in the Omni before it was replaced by Philips Arena.

Steve has also been nominated for the 2015 Georgia Radio Hall Of Fame. His life changed a bit on January 25, 2014 when he married Amanda Lynn Bakalar turning her into “Mrs. Southside”. They have a twenty two year between age gap, and because she is a nutritionist, she’ll keep him around forever. When he is not having a blast on the air, you can find Steve spreading his own brand of “Southside” personality @southsidesteve on Twitter, Steve Rickman on Instragram, and Southside Steve Rickman Fan Page on Facebook.

Brandi Britain - She was born a Cumming woman but Atlanta is her home. She live in a brothel-esque cottage with three delightful dames and shares her life with the most handsome man… that’s a cat. Her love for cats is both palpable and unreasonable. She can’t deny the feline wiles.

When she's not using her magic phalanges on the buttons on the studio board, she's usually drinking Fireball, not spending over $4 on her wardrobe, and shaking her boyish figure all over Graveyard’s dance floor. She doesn't mean to brag, but her dancing skills are on the same level as the great MC Skat Kat. And finally, she has many tattoos and they don’t mean anything, but she does enjoy the looks on people’s faces when she says, “because I like unicorns.”

Digi-Dude Nate - (Nate Hanson) Originally an Iowa boy, Nate moved to Atlanta from Florida after completing his degree in Digital Media, a combination of art and technology. He began his career as an intern on Jason Bailey’s midday show in Orlando. A self proclaimed “Bro” he’s the smartest dumb guy in the room and brings the digital element to the show. Nate has always enjoyed “figuring things out”, ever since he built an FM radio transmitter with his father from parts at Radio Shack when he was 10. Now in his spare time he Photoshops funny pictures, designs websites, and brews his own beer.

Program Content
Bailey and Southside have a very regular rotation of games and guests on the program based upon the day of the week. The only game played every day for a prize is Headlines, in which a news audio clip is played. The caller is then given 2 headlines (1 correct and 1 wacky) to choose which one matches the story.

 Monday Smarta Marta This is where Digi-Dude Nate rides the MARTA and asks a "very intelligent" individual general trivia questions. Two callers are pitted against each other and have to guess if the MARTA rider will get the question correct or incorrect. If the caller guesses correctly they get a point. If they guess wrong, the opposing player gets a point. Whoever is ahead at the end of the segment wins a prize.

 Tuesday Nothing Personal Callers try to figure out if the personal ad is a man seeking a man, a man seeking a woman, a woman seeking a woman or a woman seeking a man. Southside Steve and Brandi are picked to help the contestants.

 Thursday Google Feud Each week, Jason gets the top 4 auto-complete answers after Googling certain phrases. 3 callers are paired up with Southside, Brandi, or Nate. The cast members try to guess what Google will auto-complete the phrase with, and whoever has more number 1 answers at the end of the segment, wins a prize for their caller which they were assigned.

 Friday Bet'cha Can't Bet'cha Can't is not a game, but a weekly bit where intern Shaky Hands Brent is bet whether he can or can't do something and has to go out and complete the task for money from Jason and Steve.
