The List for Friday, November 29th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Believe it or not, Samuel L. Jackson has only been nominated for an Oscar ONCE . . . Best Supporting Actor for “Pulp Fiction” in the ’90s.  But he didn’t win.. In an interview with the AP, Samuel says the Oscars are strange . . . because it’s like “a contest that you didn’t volunteer to be in.” adding, “Folks will go, ‘Well, it’s just an honor to be nominated.’  No it ain’t.  It’s an honor to WIN.  You get nominated . . . and most people forget.”

It’s being reported that Taylor Swift is changing her approach to her romance with Travis Kelce. And really making a conscious effort to go with the flow a lot more now and let her hair down. When they first got together, she was a lot more focused on the timing of everything, now  she just wants to take the shackles off and let people judge them based on what comes naturally.

Garth Brooks talks about what Trisha does with all the leftovers after Thanksgiving…saying she takes all the leftovers and puts them into one casserole, puts a biscuit top on it and bakes the casserole….ideas for NEXT year?

Keith Urban now owns Waylon Jennings’ iconic 1950 Broadcaster guitar.  It was given to a session player who toured with The Highwaymen in the ’90s, and then he put it up for auction.  Keith said the reason Waylon gave it away in the first place was, quote, “It was too [effing] heavy.”

The List for Thursday, February 5th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Rumors are flying that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have allegedly set a wedding date. A so-called source says the planning is “military-level precise,” which tracks, because Taylor hates surprises and Travis runs NFL playbooks for a living. Pop music, professional football, and Hollywood elite all in one room. Locked down, protected, unforgettable. Basically the most intense group project ever attempted.

-----

Former Bachelor host Chris Harrison is launching a new dating show for people who want a “traditional, marriage-minded partnership built on commitment and shared values.” Which apparently is now considered edgy programming. Somewhere, reality TV just gasped. This is not roses and drama. This is compatibility and emotional maturity.

-----

Before Luke Combs made it big, he had $200 left in his bank account. That money went toward mastering one song, “Hurricane.” He releases it, sells about 10,000 copies the first week, and uses the cash to finish the rest of the album. Then pitches it to labels. And that, kids, is how you bet on yourself and win.

-----

Toby Keith, Kenny Rogers, and Ed Harris are being inducted into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. The ceremony happens in April in Oklahoma City. They’re joining legends like George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, Kurt Russell, and Burt Reynolds. That is a hall with serious swagger. Cowboy hats optional. Legends required.
