Bishops generally oversee a diocese, and tend to the clergy as well as the parishes within that diocese... in this sense, you can think of a bishop as a Catholic "district manager". There are some ceremonies that they carry out that priests don't usually do, such as confirmations; they also sometimes lead mass at the main church within their diocese
A Diocesan Bishop confirms, ordains Priests, administers a diocese, preaches the Holy Gospel, performs visitations of, monasteries, convents, and seminaries, instructs the faithful in sound doctrine, and performs other Priestly duties as well.
An auxiliary Bishop of a diocese does whatever work he is instructed to do by his diocesan ordinary (the Bishop of the Diocese).
Bishops directly in the service of the Holy See serve in the offices of the Roman Curia, oversee certain Apostolic works, or can be employed in diplomatic service, such as Nuncios of the Holy See to various countries.

Who is archbishop Martin pius kelly?
Mr Martin Pius Kelly is a local preacher in Carlow, Ireland. He claims to be an ordained Tridentine archbishop but has not received any formal tertiary education (e.g. B.A., B.Th.) and has not received any formal seminary training. While Mr Kelly claims to hold an honourary Doctorate of Divinity, this was not awarded by a recognised degree awarding institution.
While Mr Kelly has not received formal training, he does seem to genuinely care about people and about scripture. To my knowledge, Mr Kelly does not seek financial gain via his preaching activities. Based on this anecdote, I would not consider him to be a predatory preacher.
Furhermore, Mr Kelly is a talented amateur musician.

What was the job of the bishops during the middle ages?
Bishops were the leaders of the church. The leader of the bishops, of course, was the pope. Bishops were often very wealthy. They dressed lavishly, wearing many of the same clothes as a feudal lord. Of course, they had their own religious garments to wear also. Bishops often had their own castles from which to conduct buisness. In this way, they were firmly entrenched in the feudal society. They were accepted in royal courts and dallied in politics. They also had many duties. They levied taxes and settled on issues such as annulments of marriages.
