KIX-KLASH RE-HASH
May 5, 2026
Tuesday 5th May 2026
United States Air Force Veteran Jerry Meadows is set to walk from Marshalltown, Iowa to Jacksonville, Florida on February 1. He expects the walk to take at the minimum, six months. Looking to raise funds for veterans and raise awareness of Veterans, Jerry is passionate about completing this walk along with his better half, Virginia.
Meadows joined me on the Morning Kix Start today to talk about the walk and how you can help. Listen below to the Kixcast.
To donate towards The Road Walker Journey with Jerry Meadows, head to bit.ly/2Edxw26.
If you would like to contact Jerry to support the event, contact KIX 101.1. Checks can be made payable to THE WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT, PO BOX 758541 Topeka, Kansas 66675. On the Memo section of the check write Road Walker.
Keep tuned for updates once Jerry starts his journey to the Wounded Warrior headquarters in Jacksonville.
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.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
