Rachel Evans
Rachel was born and raised in Central Ohio, and moved to the Northeast Ohio area when she went to The University of Akron to study Communications with a focus on Media Studies. She fell in love with radio as she studied and has been on air since 2018. After a brief move to Missouri, Rachel is back on air in Ohio as the evening personality on WQMX!
When she’s not on-air, Rachel loves spending time with her friends and family, as well as her dog Sif and her kitten Pebbles! She loves to cook, read, and watch movies and tv to review online! She’s a huge fan of the Browns, Guardians, Buckeyes, and of course the Zips, but she usually goes to the games just to see the marching band!
I have a BIG annoucement that I'll be posting here on WQMX.com! It's going up at the end of the week, but I'm so excited about it I just wanted to tease it now! Trust me, this announcement is going to be HUGE!!! Stay tuned!

Ever have a craving? Not a food craving, but a desire to do something you wouldn't usually do? That was me last week! For some reason, I wanted to watch the J.J Abrams Star Trek trilogy. Why? I have NO clue! I'm not a Trekkie (if that's even how you spell it), I'm much more of a Star Wars fan, and I'd seen the first two like forever ago. There was no reason to do…

Spring is "officially" here but I don't buy it. Sure it was nice out today, and UA is on spring break, and the sun is shining. But it just doesn't quite feel like spring yet. I love spring, it's mostly the weather, either rainy or a perfect cool over a lush green pasture. My favorite flower, daffodils, are planted everywhere thanks to spring. I can stop hiding under coats and hoodies. Everyone is in a…

I'm filling in for Cherise this week (tune in from 10-3!) so that means I get to partake in a ritual I often neglect: breakfast! I don't hate breakfast, it just isn't something I do daily anymore. I intermittently fasted for a very long time, usually only eating from noon to 8 pm. I'm starting to phase out of it, but with the way that my mornings usually go, my first meal isn't until the…

First of all, let's just all say a collective THANK YOU to Spiderman: Into The Spiderverse for opening the door to NOT GENERIC LOOKING CGI!!!! The art style is phenomenal. It also looks really fun, and like it's going to be pretty funny as well! Check out the trailer now!

The second film I watched this week to prepare for the Oscars was Tár. This is a psychological drama about a maestro named Lydia Tár, and the unraveling of her actions as she prepares for a live recording of a piece. This probably wouldn't be something I would seek out in theaters, but that's what I love about the Oscars, it puts things on your radar. I really liked this film. It's stylish, raw, refined,…

This Sunday is the Oscars, and I'm going to catch up on all of the Best Picture Nominees I haven't seen yet with a different movie each day this week! Today I saw Avatar: The Way of Water. Technically this was a double feature, I watched the first one again this morning before I went to the movies. I never actually finished it the first time I watched it, since I was on a plane.…

This Trailer Thursday is very special, because I'm featuring the teaser that just came out today: Disney's Haunted Mansion! This one is brand new, and NOT the really bad Eddie Murphy one! It's special because The Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides in the Disney parks, so I'm really excited seeing all of the references in the teaser! Check it out below:

I don't really consider myself a gamer. It's mostly because I'm really bad at them, like extremely bad. If I do play a game, it's usually a life sim or a puzzle that doesn't require a ton of skill to be good at. But as of late, I've really been getting back into the Fallout series! Somehow, despite being terrible at shooting games, I love this series. I've only played a handful of them, and…

I love the Super Bowl. The game, the halftime show, the music, and of course the commercials. It's my favorite part every year. And after sitting on it for a few days, this is definitely my favorite commercial this year: This was my favorite for so many reasons. If you're not aware, Ben Afflack and Dunkin is kind of a meme at this point. Ben and Jennifer Lopez are also one of my favorite celebrity…
