This afternoon, he & Tom Waddle co-host a live broadcast from 115 Bourbon Street in Merrionette Park hours before the Packers/Bears' NFC Wildcard Game at Soldier Field. Tomorrow night, he'll be hosting the Chicago Bears Radio Network pregame and taking phone calls at halftime of the matchup between the 2 NFC North rivals.

He is Marc Silverman, who has been with ESPN 1000 AM since 1998 when WMVP became a full time ESPN Radio outlet.

Silverman has quite a story to tell, not just regarding the success of "Waddle & Silvy" weekday afternoons, but overcoming lymphoma during the pandemic year of 2020.

"Silvy" as he's affectionately known, shares his story with Barrett Media's John "Rock" Mamola. As this link reveals, Silverman has found new life in what's becoming quite a legacy both professionally & personally. Check it out and GO BEARS!
