My favorite candy

I'm a little odd (like you needed me to tell you that ;)). I have a sweet tooth, but I'm not huge into candy. That doesn't mean that I don't have my favorites! My go to would be something chocolate with nuts in it. I love peanut or especially almond M&Ms, Mr. Goodbar, Hershey's with nuts, Snickers, Milky Way, or I have always loved Crunch bars with the rice too!

I still have to buy my Halloween candy...even though it's Friday night and Trick or Treat is 24 hours away! I hope the stores still have a decent selection when I go tomorrow! Wish me luck and Happy Halloween!!!

The choice is yours!

Keep It or Kick It is back tonight during the New At 9:00. Shortly after the hour begins, listen for new music from Annie Bosko "Neon Baby". I will ask you to listen to the song all the way through, and then decide if WQMX should play it more, or toss it aside.

Don't be shy with your opinions! You can call me or text me on the Cricket Wireless Text Line at 330-370-2000. I'm excited to see if you want to Keep It or Kick It tonight!

It starts tonight!

Tonight is the beginning of the 2023-24 season fo the Cavs! They start on the road in Brooklyn against the Nets. The home opener is this Friday hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder. Let's hop they do just as good as last year, and then some! The Cavs made it to the playoffs only to be eliminated in the first round by New York. This year, let's shoot for at least the conference semifinals!!! (I'd of course love to them go farther than that...but I'm thinking realistically)

Plus, as we are ready to get the season started...news that Myles Garrett of the Browns has purchased a minority stake in the Cavs as well! That is so cool! Happy NBA season and GO CAVS!!!!

The best time of year to be a dentist

We are getting into the time of year when kids are going to be chowing down on an overload of candy! Between Trick or Treat and the stockings at Christmas, there will be A LOT of candy consumed over the next three months.

Trick or Treat at my house is this Saturday. I still have to go buy my candy to pass out for this year. I would LOVE to be the house that gives out the full-size bars...but I work in radio - can't afford that! lol. So I get a couple mixed bags of the fun sizes filled with candy that I like of course - that way if I don't get many kids coming by my house, I'll eat some of it and maybe bring some into wok as well.

Either way, this is the best time to be a dentist! A lot of appointments made to fix the damage of all that candy! haha

Since this is the last full week before Halloween, this will be the final week of my scary movie trivia. I have had a blast trying out your knowledge of the movies that go bump in the night! I hope you've had as much fun with it as I have. 

This final week I have your chance to win a pair of tickets to Forest of Screams Haunted Hayride in Medina! So I have five more questions regarding those movies that make it hard to sleep at night - hope you are my correct caller with the correct answer to have a great time getting spooked on a hayride!

Listen and then tell me what you think

Keep It or Kick It is back once again tonight! During the New @ Nine, I'll be featuring the song "Don't Let The Old Man In" by Toby Keith. Keith is planning to re-release the track after his performance at the People's Choice Country Awards.

We will give it a listen shortly after 9:00 and then it'll be time for you to call or text me on the Cricket Wireless Text Line and tell me what you think of the song.

Thanks for your participation!

Bosom Buddies 2023

Last night at the Civic Theater was so much fun! The show by Priscilla Block & Chase Rice was AWESOME! The VIP auction raised a lot of money for a great cause, and the raffles for the gifts and 50/50 went very well too!

It was great to see so many loyal listeners at the event as well. We thank you for all of your support and hope you had as much fun last night as we did.

How about we do it again next year? ;)

Who in Northeast Ohio ISN'T a fan of "A Christmas Story"?! The movie is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, and they are bringing the celebration to Cleveland November 10th-12th!

Cast members, panels about the movie, MERCH!!!! - it'll be like Cleveland's own little Christmas Story Con!!!!

It all takes place at Cleveland Public Auditorium. Find the full details from the Plain Dealer here.

What I did over the weekend

Friday evening I went with traffic reporter extraordinare Steffany Nicole to see "Pod Meets World: The Kids Wanna Jump Tour" at the Ohio Theatre down at Playhouse Square. It was such a great time! The actors who played Shawn, Topanga, and Eric on Boy Meets World are hosting a podcast rewatching the series and talking to other cast members about their experiences on set. They have decided to take the idea on the road, and Cleveland was the stop on Friday night. 

Growing up, TGIF on ABC was such a huge part of my week. I specifically remember watching Family Matters at 8:00, Boy Meets World at 8:30, Step By Step (RIP Suzanne Somers) at 9:00, and Hangin' With Mr. Cooper at 9:30. Sometimes I'd still be awake enough to see Hugh and Barbara come on with 20/20 at 10:00 :) lol. Listening to this podcast and re-watching some episodes is really bringing back some memories for me! I really enjoyed seeing three members of the cast explain what the show meant to them, and how big of a following it really has! The audience was wild!!! It really sounded like we were at a taping back in 1999.

Steffany and I had a great time!
