DALLAS – This Sunday “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart” will interview last weekend’s Winston Cup Series winner Ryan Newman, catch up with platinum-selling country performer Tracy Lawrence, and get some tips from Ranger fishing guide Bill Wilcox.

Newman, who is now in his sophomore season of the NASCAR Winston Cup Series after ending his rookie year with a remarkable sixth-place finish in the points race and 14 top-five finishes, will talk about his win last weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. He earned his second career win by passing crowd favorite Dale Earnhardt Jr., who finished second. Newman will also tell how he slows down and relaxes before a big race by heading out on the water with his crew to wet a line. Lawrence, who has sold over 10 million records in a career that has spanned over a decade, will talk about touring and his passion for the outdoors.

Wilcox will guide “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart” host Keith Lebowitz to all the hot fishing holes on Lake Lewisville as Lebowitz prepares for his appearance in the TTT event May 10-11. The Great Texas Bass Club’s general manager and regular radio-show guest Derek Stratton will join the fishing expedition.

“FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart” is broadcast throughout Texas and parts of Oklahoma every Sunday from 10 a.m. until noon CST on Fox Sports 1190 AM KFXR in Dallas. Listeners who would like to ask a question of any of these guests can e-mail the question to [email protected].

Each week hosts Lebowitz and Travis Smith assemble an exciting group of distinguished guests – including entertainers as well as sports-industry figures – to discuss a variety of sports- and outdoor-related issues. “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart” brings listeners inside information on what’s new in the world of sports as well as what these celebrities do for fun when they’re off the stage or field and in the outdoors.
