After premiering new Sam Hunt last night, tonight for Keep It or Kick It...I have brand new music from Scotty McCreery! Cherise gave you a taste at noon, so let's see what you say tonight at 9:00. Should we keep it or kick it?! I'll take your votes between 9 and 9:45 and the results will be given about 9:50. You can vote by texting me on the Toth Buick GMC Text line or call…
One of the best parts of this job is getting to hang out with you, the listeners as well as meeting the artists we play everyday in person. Lat night at The Knight Stage, we did both! It was such a nice evening for great music by these two artists (who both sounded AWESOME) with the best listeners in the area! You helped us raise a lot of money for breast cancer which is a…
Big props to Jelly Roll! He just completed a 5K race that he has been training for. That is quite an accomplishment! Not only that, but in the process he lost another 50 pounds in his weight loss journey! Which is totally amazing! Of course his biggest chearleader was his wife Bunnie XO. Maybe now that he has completed that one, let's get him to sign up for our 5K race this Fall! What do…

There are a couple things I DIDN'T get to that I need to do. First, I need to pay my bills - those are due next week! Second is go to the grocery store. I haven't had time to do that just yet. Third, I need to completely finish unpacking and get some extra laundry done - hopefully tonight after work...fingers crossed on that one. BUT, one thing I DID get done today before I…
I'm Back! I got home yesterday evening from my vacation, and it's time to get back to work. I went out to Southern California (San Diego) to visit family. It was so nice to just get away for a week. The weather was awesome - sunny and temps in the low to mid 70s. Only one day stayed cloudy, and one day in the low 60s was pretty chilly. We did a lot of fun…
For Keep It or Kick It tonight, I have a new song from Lee Brice with Hailey Whitters & Nate Smith called "Drinking Buddies". We have been playing it for you all day, but tonight on the New @ 9 I need your votes to tell me if WQMX should keep the song or kick it out into the garbage. You will have until 9:45 to vote after you hear the song in its entirety,…

It is a great time to be a Cleveland sports fan at the moment. I mentioned it last night: The Guardians have the best record in all of Baseball, and the Cavs are in the playoffs! We will see how deep in the playoffs the Cavs are able to go, and don't expect the Guards to maintain that best record for all that long (just being realistic). No matter what, just take a little time…
I stopped at the pet store earlier today to get some food for Buttercup. I happened to walk down the aisle with treats and other accessories - and found these! They are marketed to help your cat not get their nails caught on furniture, your clothes, help prevent scratches to you, etc. But to me it looks like something you'd put on your cat like nail polish! If your cat has that special night planned…
Hardy is dropping new music tonight...sort of. He has put his own spin to a Hip Hop classic and we get to take it for a spin this evening. He is releasing a cover of Snoop Dogg's "Gin & Juice". It will be interesting to hear a Country spin to a Hip Hop icon's song. I'm looking forward to taking a listen. This will be something I have never experienced before! haha

Now, I was not sleeping outside, but I had a very difficult time this morning...let me tell you! I first woke up around maybe 8:30 straight out of a dream. That meant I was dead tired! So I was able to go back to sleep. Then, I woke up again around 10:00. Again, straight out of a dream! UGH!!!! Tried to go back to sleep for a bit, then decided just to head down to…
