Candi andCompany

Join Candi with special guest Golden Czermak photographer, author, and model.  Back in 2012 - well after completing college with a Chemical Engineering Degree and working the corporate rat race as an environmental, health, and safety manager - I began a small photography company in the small town of Athens, Alabama. Starting with taking photos on the weekend, the FuriousFotog® brand grew to over 2 million followers on social media and I became an internationally published modeling/fitness photographer with a focus on romance book covers. Eventually, I also began working as a book cover model myself. Having been in the industry for over eight years, I've interfaced and networked with countless authors and other clients. As part of my work as a photographer and designer, I've captured many book cover images for them, licensing both photos and designs which now number over 1650.

Candi Fox welcomes cover model, fitness expert, and former Air Force Fireman, Kevin Davis.  Kevin was born and raised in Gadsden AL. After joining the Air Force, he served as a firefighter during Desert Storm. Kevin spent over a decade with chronic pain and had two surgeries on his neck. The constant pain led to an addiction and eventually, he hit rock bottom. He went to the Tuscaloosa VA for rehab and has been clean since 4-16-18. Kevin liked Tuscaloosa enough that he decided to stay. He found focusing on fitness helped him with recovery. After years of working in healthcare administration, he took a job at Crunch Fitness and is now the Assistant General Manager. Two years ago, famous photographer and author Golden Czermak of Furiousfotog(raphy) approached me online about doing a photoshoot for romance book covers. I’ve sold more than 20 covers so far and recently did another shoot with Golden.   Model: Kevin Davis   Professional Photos: Golden Czermak

No matter what genre you are writing in, you can use the same basic guidelines to start your next great novel.   This week we talk about story boarding and the importance of visualizing your book. While this process can be time consuming and intricate, many large studios use this technique to develop films. Storyboards are also used for books, businesses, ineractive media, and more.

The exclusive story written by Candi and Teresa will continue to be told in this episode.

Join Candi and Teresa as they talk bout the basics of gardening. Teresa will be out in her garden broadcasting live. The idea of backyard gardening is nothing new, but people are finally getting back to the idea that we need to grow our own food. With GMO's and pesiticides running rampant across America people want a healthier choice in their food supply. One way is to grow your own. In the past people thought you had to have a lot of land to grow your own food. Most families are smaller than they were a few decades ago and will be able to plant small gardens in their backyards, porches, or balconies. You can use boxes, large pots, old barrels and many other containers to grow a garden. You can also grow gardens using tubing, and water, no soil needed. Sustainable gardening is possible for everyone.

The series will continue, but you can only hear it here. Tune in!

Who knew that one in every five children in America were going hungry? I know, I didn't. One in every six Americans are also going hungry. Next time you are in a room look around you, somewhere in that room a person will go to bed without food. 49 million Americans, including over 15 million children are struggling to eat, every day in America. We are the wealthiest nation in the world and yet millions of Americans go hungry. The hunger in America is not caused by lack of food, but by scarcity of income. We throw out billions of tons of food a year, instead of feeding the hungry, because we are afraid of law suits. Nearly half of all the people on the SNAP program are children. Can you feed a child for $70 a month? Mississippi currently has the highest percentage of population  going without food at more than 20% of its population struggling to eat. Food insecure children are 90% more likely to suffer health problems through their entire life. 4 out of 5 teacher's state children in their classroom come to school hungry. Without school programs all of these children would suffer. Without your help the face of hunger will continue to grow.

Rape in our society says: "It's better not to get raped." It does not teach people not to rape.

Annette Funicello will always be known for her time on the "Mickey Mouse" club, her top 100 hits, and her iconic beach movies with Frankie Avalon. Those "beach movies" - "Beach Party" (1963), "Muscle Beach Party" (1964), "Bikini Beach" (1964), "Beach Blanket Bingo" (1965), and "How to Stuff a Wild Bikini" (1965) - became a new genre of light-hearted fun in the 1960s. Even though Annette released over 30 albums, she never considered herself a "singer."  We disagree. Listen in as we play several of her hits like "Blame It On The Bossa Nova," "Tall Paul" and "Beach Blanket Bingo." You can explore much of Annette's career on Amazon. Candi and Randy celebrate Annette's life, music and career.  We also discuss Multiple Sclerosis, the disease that had such a horrible impact on Annette's life.
