Welcome to The List,
Dierks Bentley keeping fit as the weather gets cooler! He recently took part in a 50-mile bike race in Bentonville, Arkansas before taking a plane to Dallas to perform later in the evening. The man is a machine, Dierks hopes to bike 100 miles at next year’s race… Just reporting this makes my back hurt…..

Another country artist taking up biking is Chris Stapleton. He tells CMT that he started riding a bike during the pandemic . Actually it was mountain biking saying he hadn’t ridden in years. You know when people say, ‘Easy as riding a bike’? They’ve never had to re-teach themselves how to ride. It’s hard!”

Mila Kunis tells The Blast that she has a ladder in every room saying I have ladders everywhere. I have a ladder in the closet, I have a ladder in the kitchen. I can’t reach things! and it’s not really because she’s short..well, yeah, she’s 5’4” but her husband Ashton Kutcher is 6’3”…she feels it’s a good marriage compromise.

And a little bit of a departure today but still worth mentioning…The San Francisco Gate reports Analicia Garcia and Kyle Howser had their wedding reception at a Pacifica, California Taco Bell THIS Taco Bell is widely regarded as the nicest Taco Bell in the world. Wedding guests dined on Crunch wrap Supremes..but they forgot the hot sauce and napkins…Just FYI because a base was stolen at the World Series this year…America gets to steal a FREE Doritos’ Locos Taco Thursday November 4th

Welcome to The List,
Sad news from the NASCAR world. Greg Biffle, one of NASCAR’s 75 Greatest Drivers, has died at age 55 in a plane crash in North Carolina. Authorities say seven people were killed, including Biffle, his wife Cristina, and their two children. Beyond his racing success, Biffle was widely praised for his humanitarian work, especially helping communities after Hurricane Helene. The racing world is mourning a champion on and off the track.

Tom Cruise is allegedly on a long, carefully planned mission to become Sir Tom Cruise. A source says this has been years in the making hosting events, shaking hands, embedding himself deep in the British film world. Apparently he knows exactly how the system works and he’s been playing the long game. At this point, don’t be shocked if the next Mission: Impossible ends with him bowing politely and accepting a sword tap on each shoulder.

Miranda Lambert is developing a new TV series for Hulu inspired by her music and real-life friendships. The show centers on a messy female friendship, an escape from an abusive marriage, and a fresh start in a small Texas town that turns out to be full of secrets. So basically heartbreak, healing, strong women, and Texas drama which is already Miranda’s brand. Country music meets prestige TV.

Jon Pardi says Christmas music is what keeps his household sane. He’s got two little girls with very big emotions, so songs like Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph are on constant rotation. Forget parenting books the real hack is letting a cartoon reindeer handle crowd control..
