The List for Friday, May 6th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Mother’s Day is this Sunday….we’re all grateful for the things we learned from her…Ingrid Andress says she Inherited Her Mother’s Work Ethic … “My mom has an incredible work ethic, and she raised five kids. And I definitely use that to this day. I don’t have kids, but I feel like the music industry is difficult and takes a lot of work, and she definitely inspired me to work really hard.”

——

Amber Heard continued her testimony about Johnny Depp’s alleged abuse yesterday, while Johnny’s people say she’s giving the performance of her life.  The trial is on recess until May 16th.

Will Smith is a guest star on an upcoming episode of David Letterman’s Netflix talk show, “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction”.  But it was recorded BEFORE the Oscars, so there will be no mention of THE SLAP….so I guess Letterman won’t be wearing a catcher’s mask…

Shania Twain says she’s Is Proud To Be A Parent … “It’s such a joy to be a parent. So, I relate to all the mums out there who are getting all their love and appreciation from their kids, and I hope, when you’re a kid, a child of somebody, show your mum you love her, because it means everything.”  Celebrate mom this Sunday because she deserves it.

The premiere for “Top Gun: Maverick” was shown on board the U.S.S. Midway an Aircraft Carrier in San Diego…Tom Cruise arrived by Flying himself in on a helicopter and getting out like a sharped dressed man…as Tom Cruise would do.  Top Gun: Maverick (which also stars Jon Hamm, Jennifer Connelly, and Miles Teller) arrives in U.S. theaters on May 27.

Blake Shelton and Carson Daly are creating a new game show for the USA Network called ”Barmageddon.” Nikki Bella will host the show from Blake’s Nashville bar. Celebrities will play games against one another at the bar.  And Dolly Parton tells Billboard magazine that she wants Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones to be her backing band if she records a rock album.  I might get some different rock bands, some of the classic bands, to back me on some of the songs I do and then do two or three or four originals.

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."

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