Geoffrey Baer

Geoffrey Baer knows Chicago. After spending the last 36 years as a docent for the Chicago Architecture Center, he’s gotten into Chicago’s hidden nooks and crannies more than most people. He’s even put together not one, but two PBS specials about all of the beauty Chicago has to offer. Now, he’s working on something a little more…mysterious. Geoffrey sat down with Whip of the Morning Mix to talk about the city he loves, the “most fun project he’s ever worked on,” and why Chicagoans don’t put ketchup on our hot dogs. You can stream his new project “Most Beautiful Places in Chicago 2” now, and his upcoming production “Chicago Mysteries” releases this coming April.

Belinda Carlisle

Belinda Carlisle knows she’s been in the game for a long time. She was riding the high of The Go-Go’s induction into the 2021 Rock N Roll Hall of Fame, and thought maybe it was time to hang up the boots and retire. That was until her son ran into Diane Warren who had some songs for Belinda to record. Now, retirement is out of sight and out of mind. Whip caught up with Belinda to talk about her new single “Big Big Love,” her upcoming five song EP, and a very interesting painting.
