Texans Share Their Playful Guilty Pleasures And The Charm Of Trashy Habits

5 days ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

We polled a bunch of Texans asking them "What's The Trashiest Thing About You?" Get ready for some really fun answers. Of course, "trashy" is a bit in the eye of the beholder. Then again, eating nachos over the sink, or having a tramp stamp might make one an auto-qualifier (but, man...I really like those tramp stamps).
Texas Shines In Economic Strength, Landing 8th In The Latest Rankings

5 days ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

Texas is a lot of things—some good, some bad—but after a string of poor rankings, the Lone Star State finally has something to celebrate. In a new WalletHub survey, Texas was ranked as having the 8th best economy in the nation. That’s solid news, especially considering the scope of the study. The report analyzed three key areas: Economic Activity, Economic Health, and Innovation Potential, each broken down into numerous metrics.
Texas’ Most Googled Spelling Word

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

Texas has a problem with a word, that shouldn't be a problem. Learn how to spell an easy word today!A recent survey compiled the words each state Googled how to spell. The word for Texas is actually one of the easier ones—so why not learn it today? Nationally, the U.S. struggles with the word “definitely.” I’ll admit it: I’ve seen that little red squiggle under it more than once. People tend to put an “e” where the “i” belongs or mix up the “e” and “l” at the end.

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

Lt. Governor Dan Patrick tried to make a point about THC products, but degenerated into nonsense, falsehoods, and fake news.

Stop By Post For A Taste Of Beef Jerky And Five-star BBQ

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

I have made a number of visits to Post, Texas. I also frequently stop on my way to Austin. You could say I'm a little familiar with the town. Post is about 40 to 45 minutes from Lubbock. It's a perfect stop when traveling and a very nice little drive just to get out of town. The road was more frequently used during "Old Mill Trade Days" but the town still has plenty to offer. So, what do you do if you visit Post?
Texas Tech Grad Donaldson Returns for Survivor 50

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

The cast announcements have dropped for the 50th season of Survivor on CBS. One name sticks out for us Lubbock superfans. I am a big Survivor fan. I have not missed a single season since the show debuted in 2000. In fact, I remember hearing rumbles about the show long before it aired because the idea of dropping a bunch of people on an island to see what happened was still new.
Exploring Texas Tech's Hidden Tunnels And The Stories They Hide

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

There is a network of tunnels underneath Texas Tech University. We'll explore what they are for, and some urban myths about them. It wasn't that long ago one of the secret tunnels under Texas Tech University belched green fire. The green fire was almost secondary news to people in Lubbock saying, "Wait, there's tunnels?". Texas Tech has a series of tunnels that allows the University to run campus utilities through them.
Why Lubbock's Barbeque Is Finally Getting The Recognition It Deserves

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

There was a time when Lubbock wasn’t even in the conversation for best barbeque, but that’s changed. Surprisingly, it’s not the old-school joints but the fresher faces taking home the kudos. I guess I need to be upfront: Evie Mae’s scored the 10th Best Barbeque Joint in the Texas Monthly 2025 survey. The only issue is, Evie Mae’s is not technically in Lubbock—it’s in nearby Wolfforth. Evie Mae’s is frequently lauded as one of the best anywhere, and we’re certainly proud of them.

Lubbock’s Family-friendly Image Takes A Hit In New Survey Results

1 week ago | kfmx.com | Wes Nessman

A new survey has some disappointing results about Lubbock. Despite it's "family friendly" reputation, the Hub City had a very poor showing when it comes to raising kids. Probably the thing I've heard most about Lubbock is "It's a great place to raise a family". Survey says (ding!) That is a lie. While I certainly hope you're having great success raising your kids in Lubbock, the facts say they would do better elsewhere. It's a little heartbreaking because most of us can't pick up and move.
