The List for Wednesday, March 11th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Wedding bells could collide with NFL whistles pretty soon. Rumors say Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may tie the knot June thirteenth. That timing could overlap with early Chiefs offseason practices. Imagine missing drills because romance called an audible. The power move here is Taylor getting the NFL to move this seasons kick-off…

Kenny Chesney is going coastal again for a great cause. He’ll receive the Ocean Conservancy Award at Tortuga Festival. It marks his sixth time headlining the beachside bash. Fans get music while the ocean gets real support. That’s a salty good-vibes victory right there.

—–

Here we go again with Gen X bragging about music. They had MTV videos, giant rock personalities, and guitar heroes everywhere. Concert tickets were affordable and nobody blocked your view with phones. Plus Live Aid moments the whole world actually watched. Yeah… that era hit different.

Lainey Wilson is trading boots for the big screen. She makes her feature film debut in ‘Reminders of Him’. At the premiere she said working with great people was her favorite part. Turns out movie magic still runs on good vibes. Country star leveling up in Hollywood.

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

The List for Monday, May 4th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Darth Vader just Force-choked his way to the top spot. It’s Star Wars Day, and a new list crowned him number one. Han Solo slides into second, Leia takes third, rebellion stays strong. Meanwhile, Yoda’s somewhere judging your life choices in silence. May the Fourth be with your bad decisions today.

-----

Charlize Theron just laid down the ultimate parenting reality check. She says her daughters will earn their own money, no shortcuts. And their first cars? Old-school Datsuns, because crashes are coming. Which is bold, considering Datsun hasn’t been a thing in years. Nothing builds character like a car you can’t Google.

-----

Tucker Wetmore just had a full “main character” moment overseas. He wins New Male Artist of the Year at the ACM Awards. Then, his mom walks onstage in London with the trophy. Thomas Rhett pops up on video like it’s a country music Avengers scene. Nothing says you made it like mom showing up internationally.

-----

Somewhere out there, confidence is doing a little too much. A woman says she’s marrying Riley Green, no doubts at all. Claims they met on Facebook and even talked on the phone. Yeah… so has half the internet and a guy named “Steve.” Love is blind, but this one might need Wi-Fi verification.
