The List for Wednesday, July 21, 2021

Welcome to The List,

As Thomas Rhett says in his song, ‘It feels good to be country again’ it sure has been a long road for him. “It doesn’t feel like that long ago, yet at the same time it feels like a century ago that I felt like I was in college just trying to figure it out. Today he feels more centered, loves to be outside, or fishing or sitting by a fire on a back porch.

 Cole Swindell says his one-time duet partner, Dierks Bentley, has always been one of his idols and credits HIM with the idea of writing his own songs.  When Cole was singing covers in college he realized he needed to make other people feel that way and write his own stuff…

US Weekly Magazine claims Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez may do another rom-com together ..please no…anyone remember ‘Gigli”…..Hoda Kotb of The Today Show. Asked if there was going to be a return of ‘Bennifer’ JLo responded, “I am happy. I’m always happy when you see me, Hoda … you can call me. You have my number.”

 Comedian Gabriel Iglesias Hasn’t Gotten To Meet His “Space Jam” Co-Star, LeBron James … Gabriel plays Speedy Gonzales in “Space Jam: A New Legacy.” ‘I’m hoping that’s gonna happen sooner than later, I missed the red carpet that happened at Magic Mountain. So, the first chance I get I’m going to tell LeBron who Speedy was if he doesn’t already know.”“Space Jam: A New Legacy” is in theaters and streaming on HBO Max now.

You can catch The List, weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1

The List for Thursday, August 28th 2025

Welcome to The List,

"Apparently Tom Cruise has a new mission hating Pedro Pascal. Word is, Tom’s in his 60s but still refuses to pass the Hollywood torch. He patched things up with Brad Pitt, but now Pedro bugs him because he does TV and movies. Tom’s like, real stars only pack theaters.’ Meanwhile, Pedro’s out here running the galaxy and HBO. Someone get Tom a juice box."

"Morgan Wallen tells Men’s Journal his escape from fame is hunting with his buddies. He says being in the middle of nowhere helps him chill out and de-stress. Which is fair, because nothing says peace and quiet like blasting ducks out of the sky with your best friends. That’s country therapy…

-----

"A new poll says 72% of us don’t care that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged. And yet over a million shares of their engagement post set an Instagram record. So yeah, we don’t care… we just care enough to make it the most talked-about thing on the planet.

-----

"Bill Belichick is 73 and dating a 24-year-old. And now, his girlfriend just filed to trademark the phrase ‘Gold Digger’ for jewelry and keychains. That’s a 49-year age gap, folks. At this point, their anniversary gifts are probably Metamucil and a TikTok ring light."
