The List for Tuesday, September 6th 2022

Welcome to The List,

—–

It happens to the best of us and Saturday it happened to Luke Combs.  His voice was shot..and he knew it BEFORE the concert… Saying he knew they’d spent money on things like gas and hotel rooms . . . so he wanted to give everything he had, even if it wasn’t his best. He still put on the show but did it for free and refunded everyone’s tickets.

Walker Hayes and his wife Laney did another goofy video, and why not?  Maybe it’s the reason they’ve been married for 18 years.  Sunday was their anniversary so they “renewed their vows” and had their daughter Everly be the minister.  Laney wore slippers and gym shorts while walking down the “aisle” carrying a flower in a pot.  Walker was in jeans and a baseball cap, and he hummed “Here comes the bride”.  And when it was time, they mashed lips.

Dish Network determined the most popular Stephen King movie in each state using Google Trends ‘The Mist’ was the favorite in Iowa.

—–

The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Jane Fonda is undergoing chemotherapy for what they’re calling a very treatable form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.  The 84-year-old actress took to Instagram on Friday to reveal that she’s begun the treatment.

—–

Cole Swindell’s hit, ‘She Had Me At Heads, Carolina’ is barreling up the charts…it was last weeks number one song on the Top Kix At Six.  The video HAS Jo Dee Messina in it.  Cole talks about meeting her for the first time. “It was cool, being a fan of somebody you never know how it’s going to be. I was nervous, and I’m such a big fan of her and her songs. To get to meet her for the first time I don’t know that’s a pretty big moment”

Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman recently became CPR-certified. She posted, “CPR, AED and basic first aid are invaluable skills to learn. My family and I got certified last week because you never know when an emergency will occur and who will be affected.

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

In Theaters this weekend: ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’

Avatar: Fire and Ash picks up after The Way of Water and dives into darker territory, introducing a more aggressive Na’vi tribe tied to fire and volcanic regions. It cranks up the conflict, explores moral gray areas, and shows Pandora is a lot less peaceful than we thought.

The List for Thursday, December 18th 2025

Welcome to The List,

The Oscars are officially breaking up with ABC and moving in with YouTube. Starting in 2029, the Academy Awards will stream on YouTube, along with all the red-carpet chaos, through at least 2033. ABC still gets the show through the 100th Oscars in 2028, but after that, no channel flipping — you’re clicking a link.

Don’t expect to see Michael Bublé back in the spinning chair next season. He says he’s done with The Voice after dealing with online backlash and missing his family. An insider says the negative comments really took a toll, even though he loves the show and the crew. Sometimes the smoothest crooner in the room just wants to go home and be Dad.

-----

Blake Shelton shared the first time he brought Gwen Stefani home to Oklahoma and it blew her mind. Gwen, raised in Anaheim, saw Blake’s land and asked, “You own this?” Then she spotted a creek and said, “You can have that?” She thought rivers only came with national park admission. Blake called it one of the joys of his life. City girl meets country acreage…

Morgan Wallen is now the highest-selling country artist of all time. He just picked up 80 new certifications and officially crossed 240 million units sold. Luke Combs comes in at number two, Garth Brooks at number three. Let that sink in. Skipped awards shows, topped streaming, and now sits on the mountain. Morgan let the numbers do the talking and they did….loudly.

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