Episode #33 ”The Voice” Wayne Messmer

In this edition of “Candid Candace – The Podcast!” my co-host/producer John St. Augustine and I welcome “The Voice,” Wayne Messmer to the show. He is the renowned Chicago vocalist who has sung the National Anthem at countless sporting/entertainment events  (like the upcoming NASCAR Race in Chicago) and so much more! He shares his inspiring journey back from a life-threatening gunshot wound in 1994 and has some great advice we all need to hear. We also chat about Navy Pier’s “Luminarium” and what makes it special; Mariano’s cool “The Chicago Chefs Cookbook” and how you can find it; The Happiness Club’s annual benefit; Amdur Productions’ Millennium Park Art Fest this weekend; what member of the Rolling Stones I spotted and where and, of course, my unfiltered (candid) thoughts; how the popular hit series “The Bear” celebrates Chicago’s dining scene and what Chef Curtis Duffy has to do with it, and so much more! Enjoy the cool weather, grab a sweater and an Aperol Spritz and take a listen!
