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 this week around 7:15 for your chance to win with W BOO MX!

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!

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.

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!

Friday night at 9:00, during the New At Nine, we will be featuring a new song for you. It's a new song from Jon Pardi and Luke Bryan. Rick Allen will play it for you and then ask for your votes! We wanna see if you think WQMX should keep the song or kick it to the curb!

Listen tomorrow night at 9pm to the New At Nine to hear the song on WQMX!

It's the middle of October and I am giving away haunted house passes with movie trivia for WBOO-MX, so let's talk more about scary movies. My favorites are the Halloween series as well as the Scream series. Another one I really liked was Insidious - but I've only seen the first.

One that I DON'T like - The Strangers from 2008. The thing is...I actually DID like it, but it scares me to death!!! I remember seeing it in the theater and not being able to sleep well for probably about a week! I don't know that I am comfortable ever watching it again. The scene where Liv Tyler is standing in the kitchen and one of the killers come from out of the shadows behind her back already in the house did it for me...NO THANK YOU!

Enjoy your scary movie viewing this Halloween season!

Today is World Mental Health Day. It's a chance to check on yourself and others around you to see that everyone is doing well in their own way. Some of us are better at that than others.

Speaking as someone who has dealt with mental health issues for 15 years, I can say days like this are important. We want to de-stigmatize having a mental illness. Many moe people deal with some sort of mental health issue than most of us realize. A big thing for me was saying "I have an issue, and I need to seek help for it." 

My trouble comes and goes. It could be months between an episode, but when one hits - it's rough. Please take today to work toward ending the stigma of mental illness and working toward possible solutions with those you know who suffer.

All this week, I have your chance to win a pair of VIP tickets to check out Nightmare Cleveland Haunted House in Brooklyn!

I'm going to try to challenge you just a bit though. I will ask you a question about a scary movie and you will have to be the correct caller with the correct answer in order to win. Haunted houses are always such a great thing to do with friends o family this time of year. I think it can be fun to get the you-know-what scared out of you and then start laughing at your own reactions!

Listen in the 7:00 hour all week for your chance to win and good luck from W BOOOOO-MX!
