Welcome to The List,
Well, we’ve made it through another Christmas holiday…and we have a lot to be thankful for. Friends, family and the 20-22 to look forward to. Which brings up thoughts and hopes for the future. Some are downright superstitious about it. Like the Black-Eyed Peas thing…Maddie & Tae’s Maddie Marlow Won’t Be Eating Black-Eyed Peas On New Year’s Day not because of the superstition per say … “Because the black-eyed peas made me throw up one year, so I’m not a fan of the black-eyed peas thing anymore. So, I just go into a new year with a good mind set, and just start at that” Eating Black-Eyed Peas on New Years Day is suppose to bring prosperity…

There are others who just DON’T have any New Year’s superstitions like…Tim McGraw…” I’m not very big on that sort of stuff, I just sorta look to the new year as an opportunity to do new things and accomplish new goals.” In 2022 Tim has a new tour that kicks of in February in San Antonio Texas and Tim’s 7500 OBO from his latest album ‘Here on Earth’ is doing very well on the charts.

New Years resolutions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers Quarter Back Tom Brady has one..he says, “None of these ‘Patrick Mahomes underhand throws’ that he always does. Adding, I’ve gotta complete one overhand Lombardi Trophy toss in a boat parade. That would be a great way to get the New Year started.” Sounds like someone is a little salty about not being MVP last year…..

It took a while but it’s finally DONE…TMZ claims Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver are finally divorced after 10 years. It took a while to reach a settlement because of a lack of motivation and a very complicated property settlement agreement. Man, I’ve heard of lazy but…that’s a whole new level…

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.

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..
