Hugh Jackman’s new movie “Reminiscence” is doing well and On The Nature Of Human Memories what does Hugh think HIS memories looking back consist of…”80% of it is…terror, don’t screw this up, don’t screw that up.

Elon Musk Reveals Plans For His Humanoid Robot …  “At a mechanical level, at a physical level, you can run away from it and most likely overpower it. So, hopefully that doesn’t ever happen but…”He says the robot is friendly and will eliminate dangerous, repetitive and boring tasks. I’m pretty sure that’s how Skynet started out before the Terminators showed up…yeah, all nice and great until something decides they want to have autonomous thought…

The List for Thursday, March 26th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Hookup shows come and go. Paychecks apparently stay forever. Taylor Frankie Paul will still get her full Bachelorette salary. TMZ says the payday lands in the low to mid six figures. The season got shelved after that viral domestic violence video resurfaced. Reality TV motto. Love fades. Direct deposit survives.

-----

Some guys jog. Some guys apparently brawl with neighbors. “Reacher” star Alan Ritchson reportedly got into a physical altercation. Sources say intense behavior is kind of his brand at this point. He doesn’t think he crossed a line. Neither does the authorities,

-----

Country star meets horsepower. This feels aggressively on brand. Darius Rucker is now a NASCAR Cup Series team owner. He invested in Legacy Motor Club which competes at the top level. From singing about wagons to literally owning fast cars. That is what we call career acceleration.

-----

If you like free music. Nashville just planned your summer. CMA Fest announced around 150 artists for daytime stages. Names include Ernest, Melissa Etheridge, Tucker Wetmore, more. The free shows run June fourth through seventh downtown. Wallet stays full. Voice will absolutely not.

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