Danica Patrick made a pit stop on “The Rachael Ray Show” during a Wednesday of media appearances in New York City, and as a matter of fact, yes, the topic of Aaron Rodgers did come up.
Over a glass of wine with Rach during a speed-round segment on the talk show, Patrick revealed the Green Bay Packers quarterback was the last person she texted.
“What do you like about your boyfriend?” Ray asked.
"He’s funny, he’s very kind, he’s thoughtful, he’s super smart. And he’s really good at football,” Patrick said. “And he’s tall and he’s big, and I like that.”
The show will air April 30. "The Rachael Ray Show" airs locally at 11 a.m. weekdays on WLUK.

When Ray asked Patrick the last time she laughed until she cried, she brought up her recent trip with Rodgers, which included time in Africa to help the Starkey Hearing Foundation fit people with hearing aids.
“We just went on a trip around the world, literally. We met the Dalai Lama. We did a mission trip for giving hearing aids to people in Africa. And there were some seriously funny people on this trip. There’s one guy that I look at and his face makes me laugh. So for a week straight, I just laughed. ... I think I have a six-pack from it.”
Patrick talks about how she feels about her upcoming retirement from racing after she competes in her final Indy 500 on May 27 and her postracing plans.
Patrick also appeared on NBC’s “Megyn Kelly Today” on Wednesday morning to talk about being a woman in a male-dominated sport. She and Kelly raced each other on go-karts around the studio.
