Reba McEntire is in love!
Four years after her divorce from Narvel Blackstock, she's living happily ever after with a man they call “Skeeter” -- a retired oil geologist she met while visiting Jackson Hole, Wyoming. 
She says,  “We’re totally in love -- absolutely. I wouldn’t put up with somebody for two years if I wasn’t in love with ’em!”
Well, we all know dating a geologist really rocks!
Reba’s new album Stronger Than the Truth  comes out tomorrow and then on Sunday, she'll host the ACM Awards for the 16th time. 

Dolly Parton fans listen up- her likeness will be on driver Tyler Reddick’s No. 2 Chevy Camaro at Bristol Motor Speedway. Not only will her face be on the pink and white car- it will also feature shout outs to Dollywood. The races starts at 1 on Saturday.

Baseball season is now in full "swing!" (See what I did there?)

My "Texter's Choice" question for Wednesday, April 3rd: How do YOU prefer to watch a baseball game? Live at the stadium? At home on TV? Or...do you say, "Baseball, no thanks...I choose neither!"

And here are the results!

52% At the stadium

24% At home on TV

24% Neither

Check out my daily "Texter's Choice" question every afternoon on WQMX at around 3:53pm...and hear the results when I announce them at 4:23pm! And make sure YOU vote everyday with our Studio Text Line (Powered by Discount Outlet) at 330-370-2000.

LANCO has released new music, and we played it for you during Trending Tracks! "Rival" is the lead single from the groups Sophomore album that is due out... well, they haven't said just yet. So, no details right now, but you know that we will keep you updated! The new song was co-written by lead singer Brandon Lancaster and drummer Tripp Howell, take a listen and let us know what you think in the comments! 

With the Indians season underway and things starting to warm up, we have much to look forward to.  The 2019 All Star Game is coming to Cleveland and the area is pretty geeked up!  Cleveland will host its 6th All Star Game, which is more than any other franchise!

I am a big Tribe fan, and a 20 game season ticket holder (section 172).   I remember as a kid when the All Star game seemed like such a big deal, and it was.  It was baseball on during the week, which was rare enough, but all those stars coming together was just magical.  With today's athletes, the pay, the hype and the saturation of games on TV, it may seem less of a big deal than it was in our youth.  

But when it comes to your town?  It's not less at all.  Having he entire baseball and social media world coming to, and watching your town is the stuff that evokes immense civic pride.  I have always said that nothing can galvanize a city like a winning baseball team.  It's the every day-ness of it, the pressure, the drama, and the post season. 

Best part is this year the momentum will continue through July, as where the rest of the baseball world has a few days off to rest, we will just be warming up for the fun to come.

Who can forget the last time we had the All Star Game?  Indian great Sandy Alomar WON the game for the American League!  And was the games MVP! 

This could be one of the best inventions, well- EVER! A giant tortilla blanket that you wrap yourself up in thus making you a big human burrito! 

I will let you in on a little secret- when I get invited to a baby shower, my go to gift is a piggy bank a baby swaddle. There may not be anything cuter than a baby burrito. So cute, and now we as grown-ups can be actual adult burritos!!! Yeah, I'll take two!!! They run about $40 bucks on Etsy and the social media pics alone make the price worth it ;)
