The List for Friday, July 22nd 2022

Welcome to the List,

Summer is here, time for vacations, swimming pools and sunscreen…I love summer…motorcycle rides and hot weather…Mitchell Tenpenny loves summer too…except for one thing….“The thing I love about summertime the most is just being outdoors. Except for the bugs all the time. It gets a little mosquito heavy down here in the south but I’d take it just to be outside.” I have to agree, you can KEEP those little flying bloodsuckers.

Drama at ‘Dancing With The Stars’!  A source tells OK! Magazine that Tyra Banks allegedly threatened to quit the show after Alfonso Ribeiro was hired to co-host. Tyra is supposed to be an executive producer on the show, she insisted that she also be a producer to make sure she was sitting at the table where the decisions are made. But didn’t find out about the co-host until the deal was done. Tyra walks when she is not happy.   If Tyra doesn’t feel like she is being respected, she is gone.” And so…..they have a built in back up…right?

We reported on Jason Aldean’s mural someone painted on a wall in his home of Macon Georgia and he’s finally weighed-in on it. Saying He doesn’t know who painted it, and he appreciates the gesture.  But.  He thinks it makes him look like Beavis of “Beavis and Butt-Head”…

Some seats for the upcoming Bruce Springsteen tour are selling for up to $5,000 directly from Ticketmaster.  It’s part of their new “dynamic pricing” program, which supposedly freezes out scalpers.  Unfortunately, it doesn’t do much for the concertgoer.

Gabby Barrett’s songs like ‘The Good Ones’ is being used by her fans as wedding songs…She was asked how it feels to have fans use her music for special occasions.  “One of the reasons I do what I do is to help people, and be related to people through music.  So to have a song that can be involved in somebody’s special day that you never forget about.  It’s amazing.”

And finally if you care…The website Nicki Swift recently conducted a survey to see who America wants Brad Pitt to date next. Jennifer Aniston got the top vote…

The List for Thursday, April 2nd 2026

Welcome to The List,

Horror fans, buckle up, because nightmare fuel just got a backstory. That creepy Aunt Gladys from Weapons is getting her own prequel. The same witch who basically ruined recess forever. Now we’re diving into her origin story. Cool, cool… just what we needed. Sleep is officially canceled this fall.

-----

ABC went full chaos for April Fool’s Day, announcing Miss Piggy as the next Bachelorette. Twenty-five men competing for love, drama, and probably karate chops. Jesse Palmer hosting, roses flying, egos bruised. And yes, they even joked about criminal records. Finally, a dating show where someone might actually get slapped on night one.

-----

Garth Brooks might be hitting the road, but apparently his nerves got there first. Reports say he’s stressed about touring and not having Trisha by his side. Because even country legends need emotional support spouses. Between legal drama and stage jitters, it’s a lot. Moral of the story, even Garth gets the pre-show butterflies.

-----

Taylor Sheridan says if critics are mad, he’s doing his job right. The guy behind Yellowstone is basically trolling reviewers on purpose. He wants them fired up, writing angry think pieces. Because nothing sells like outrage and cowboy drama. Imagine getting paid to annoy people… oh wait, radio.

The List for Wednesday, April 1st 2026

Welcome to The List,

Meghan Markle allegedly thought she could jump the royal line. A new book claims she believed she should be queen next. Said she was smarter, better, and worked harder than Kate. That’s not confidence, that’s skipping the entire family tree.

-----

Two Blackhawk helicopters hovering over Kid Rock’s house raised eyebrows fast. Army pilots got suspended while the investigation played out. Then the Defense Secretary stepped in and shut it down. Suspensions lifted, no punishment, case closed just like that.

-----

Keith Urban might be ready to say a little more. A report claims he felt iced out of Nicole Kidman’s interview. She talked family and life but didn’t mention him once. Now there’s talk he could finally tell his side. Nothing says romance like a possible press tour response.

-----

And if you saw Jason Aldean storm off Colbert… relax. That viral story is completely made up from top to bottom. Wrong show name, bad details, zero credible sources behind it. The internet really said “let’s just create chaos today.” Moral of the story, not everything trending is actually true…I know…surprise right??
