The List for Monday, June 13th 2022

Welcome to The List,

This Sunday is Father’s Day….and we all remember dad for the things he’s do for us and the sage wisdom he would pass on from time to time. Brad Paisley shares some of the wisdom he got from HIS dad when it came to playing his guitar. “My dad used to say, and this is the best advice.  You don’t have to be good right now and that’s alright.  But, someday you’re not going to be that cute, You’re going to have to be pretty good or you’re just going to talk about the good ole days.”

Chris Evans tells Variety magazine that replacing Tim Allen as the voice of Buzz Lightyear was intimidating. Saying “The first time you have to do that iconic line, ‘To Infinity and Beyond…,’ you kind of just do a shameless Tim Allen impression.  Eventually you feel comfortable and find your own interpretation, while still using Tim Allen as the blueprint.” “Lightyear” staring Chris Evans, Taika Waititi and James Brolin is in theaters Thursday night

Walker Hayes Says Fatherhood Has Helped Him Better Understand His Father … “It definitely helps me forgive my dad for a lot things.  now, I’m that guy who’s too full to throw the football at night, which I never understood growing up. I was like ‘How are you too full and tired to throw a football?’ And now, that’s me, on the couch.”

You may have already heard; Toby Keith broke the news yesterday that he’s been battling stomach cancer since last fall.  Country music has come out to support Toby, I saw a video from Chris Cagle posting on Facebook an emotional message of support, John Rich of Big & Rich tweeted “Hang in there” with a thumb’s up emoji.  His tour will be postponed as he needs, quote, “time to breathe, recover, and relax.”

Even though she wasn’t invited to the wedding, Lynne Spears congratulated her daughter Britney.  And Britney posted video of herself at the reception dancing to “Like a Virgin” . . . with Madonna. And in case you’re wondering,  no they didn’t….kiss… Jurassic World Dominion” knocked “Top Gun: Maverick” off the top of the box office heap with a $143.4 million opening.

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

The List for Monday, February 16th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Luke Combs just committed the ultimate sports betrayal…he wore a Jacksonville Jaguars hat. Panthers fans immediately grabbed their pitchforks and pumpkin spice lattes and accused him of treason. One fan called him fake. Luke fired back saying, yeah, maybe he should have worn Panthers gear while playing in the Jaguars stadium…his bad. This man gave us “Beer Never Broke My Heart,” not “I Pledge Allegiance to Your Fantasy Football Team.”

Miranda Lambert kicked off the Daytona 500 in front of more than 100,000 screaming NASCAR fans. She admitted the massive crowd made her nervous, which is relatable, because the only thing scarier than that many people is that many people who drove there aggressively. She said it already felt like a concert thanks to the tailgating.

-----

Hollywood officially ran out of ideas sometime around 2007, and now Charlie’s Angels is getting rebooted…again. Sony is already working on it, with the Crazy Rich Asians writer attached, and Drew Barrymore possibly involved behind the scenes. So yes, prepare for dramatic slow-motion walking, explosions that defy physics, and a plot nobody remembers. That’s Hollywood innovation….rebooting a reboot of a reboot of a reboot.

-----

If you were waiting for The Simpsons to end, I have terrible news…you’ll be waiting forever. The showrunner says it will never have a real finale because the characters live in permanent cartoon Groundhog Day. They already did a fake ending just to mess with us. At this point, three things will survive the apocalypse: cockroaches, Twinkies, and Homer Simpson.

Get details on these stories at 4:20 this afternoon on The List, with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
