The List for Wednesday, February 1st 2023

Welcome to The List,

Who has the secret to looking young? Well, THAT would probably be Paul Rudd!!  In an interview for “Men’s Health”, he said, quote, “Eight hours of sleep, then diet.  Then weights.  Then cardio.  The most important part of training is sleep.  I get up and I have a cup of coffee, and then I do cardio before I eat anything.  I never would’ve done that before [‘Ant-Man’].  I lift weights, hopefully at least three times a week.”

“Dr. Phil” is throwing in the towel!!!  He’s ending his decades long talk show. So after the current season, which will conclude this spring.  The show debuted in 2002.  Phil says, quote, “While I’m moving on from daytime, there is so much more I wish to do.”

—–

“Bad Boys 4” is officially happening.  In an Instagram video, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence joke about how the third movie was called “Bad Boys for Life”, and they should have saved that title for this one…which I don’t know how excited I am about this, I didn’t see the last one…Hopefully, it doesn’t conflict with Jada’s schedule for “G.I. Jane 2”.

Ever wonder WHY Willie smokes so much weed?  Well in an E!Online interview he says it saved his life and explains it like this…”It not only saved my life, it probably saved some other people’s lives.  Because, before I smoked marijuana, I was drinking a lot.  And I might have killed a lot of people, too.  So I’m just glad that that didn’t happen”.  His wife does all of his cooking and says he doesn’t eat much…but he loves his protein shakes…what no munchies?

—–

How much does TV shows affect our lives? Well, Yellowstone for example has inspired the most baby names last year…the top three names?  Dutton, Rip and Kayce…

—–

Reba McEntire is getting her own COMIC.  She isn’t joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe . . . yet . . . this is a 26-page comic covering her career.  There will be three formats . . . a hard cover, a soft cover, and a digital edition . . .  and they’ll all be available on March 22nd. 26 pages seems a little light to cover a career spanning more than four decades . . . but it sounds like they ARE cramming it into one volume.

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

The List for Thursday, February 19th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Travis Kelce is out here setting expectations so high the rest of us are gonna get yelled at for bringing home gas station flowers. He’s reportedly spent $141,000 on pre-wedding gifts for Taylor Swift, including Rolex watches, designer jackets, and daily flower deliveries. Daily. Meanwhile, I forgot my anniversary once and tried to fix it with a breakfast burrito. Travis Kelce just ruined relationships for every man in America.

-----

Lainey Wilson is teasing new music, and the title might be the most Lainey Wilson thing ever. The new single is called “Can’t Sit Still,” which tracks, because she’s been everywhere except my back yard party. She says her friends describe her as “a suitcase with legs,” which honestly sounds like Delta Airlines lost her twice already. No official release date yet, but she says it’s coming “real soon,” so prepare your playlists accordingly.

-----

Bunnie XO just revealed she thought Jelly Roll was a jerk when they first met, which proves once again women love a fixer-upper. She said he had “teddy bear with teeth energy” and sad eyes, and she basically looked at him like a home improvement project from HGTV. Fast forward to now, they’re one of Country music’s biggest power couples. Moral of the story, sometimes the guy who ignores you becomes your husband.

-----

The new Mummy reboot is ditching the Tom Cruise action vibe and going straight for emotional damage. This one’s from the director of Evil Dead Rise, so instead of running from explosions, you’ll be running from your own nightmares. It’s about a girl who disappears and comes back after spending quality time inside a 3,000-year-old coffin. It hits theaters April 17th, and I’ll be watching it from the safety of daylight and denial.

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