The List for Friday, May 9th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Lainey Wilson straight-up mopped the floor at the ACM Awards last night—she snagged Entertainer of the Year, Female Artist, Artist-Songwriter, AND Album of the Year for Whirlwind. Meanwhile, Chris Stapleton took Male Artist of the Year… somehow beating out Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, and Jelly Roll. I guess he had a better year they did…man! That beard strength counts for something.

Hollywood has spoken—and the most inspirational movie mom is… Elastigirl. That’s right, a stretchy superhero mom beat out Molly Weasley and Forrest Gump’s mama. Honestly? She did fight crime, raise kids, and still kept her ponytail tight. Respect.

—–

Jennifer Aniston is ticked off at the LAPD—after her house location leaked following an intruder scare. Now she’s thinking about selling her $21 million mansion. Because clearly, creepy stalkers needed help finding her place. Great job, guys. Gold star.

—–

LeAnn Rimes and Kimberly Williams-Paisley are heading to TV, joining Chris O’Donnell in ABC’s 9-1-1: Nashville. Which sounds like country music meets emergency sirens.

You can catch The List, on weekday afternoon at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1

Tinker 6/17/25

Our KIX Critter of the Week!! Tinker!!

Tinker was surrendered after his owner could no longer care for him. He’s an incredibly sweet and gentle cat who’s looking for a quiet, loving home to call his own.

Tinker enjoys lounging in his bed and taking it easy. He’s not very playful, but he loves chin scratches and relaxing near his favorite people. He’s the perfect cat for someone looking for a calm, low-key companion. He is cat friendly and his adoption fee is only $17.50!!

Tinker is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, FIV/FeLV tested, and microchipped.

The List for Monday June 16th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Luke Combs just picked up 34 new certifications from the RIAA over the weekend. That's not a typo—thirty-four. That officially makes him the second-highest selling country artist of all time. So yeah, Luke’s not just crying at your wedding—he’s crying all the way to the bank.

-----

Brantley Gilbert stopped mid-song when a fan fainted—cleared the crowd, checked on her himself, and then went full WWE on a lazy security guard: “Don’t stand there in a uniform if you ain’t gonna do sh—. Go on somewhere. Bye!” Crowd erupted. Security probably updated their LinkedIn.

-----

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are reportedly done. “People” magazine says the couple’s been on the rocks, and it’s basically over. They’ve been together since 2016 and have a daughter, Daisy, who turns 5 in August. Well, love may bloom... but sometimes it just wilts.

-----

Rob Lowe admits his favorite workout song is “the cheesiest thing in the world.” And what is it? "Eye of the Tiger." That’s right—straight outta Rocky 3. He says he won’t max out without it. Meanwhile, if he’s running? No music. Just raw-dogging the wind like a true ‘80s action hero.
