The List for Tuesday, April 11th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Russell Crowe’s new movie “The Pope’s Exorcist” is based on the supposed TRUE story of a priest who performed exorcisms for the Vatican. Unfortunately, that hasn’t earned it the endorsement of the International Association of Exorcists.  They say its purpose is to arouse “strong and unhealthy emotions,” such as “anxiety, restlessness, and fear.”…yep, job done then…well, if there’s ONE way to get NO ONE to see this movie…. it’s to come out and say how scarry it is….I’m getting advance tickets….

Carly Pearce’s latest number one song, “What He Didn’t Do,” was the final release off of her 29: Written in Stone album. Carly is excited to share the next chapter of her music, because she thinks fans may not even know what to expect. “I feel like in a lot of ways I’ve become a little bit more private with my personal life, to the point that maybe people don’t even know what this music is gonna be like, and that’s kind of fun for me. I like the mysterious side of that.”

The Hollywood Reporter says Kim Kardashian is going to star on season 12 of ”American Horror Story”. Emma Roberts is also returning to the show. The plot and storyline of season 12 are being kept a secret as is Kim’s role. All we can say is Emma and Kim…are ‘Delicate’.  Season 12 debuts this summer.

There was a major death on Sunday night’s episode of “Succession” . . . but a lot of people had it SPOILED for them by the “Los Angeles Times”. The paper ran a fake obituary for the character right after the episode was released . . . and a lot of people saw IT before they could watch the show. Obviously the “Times” was trying to be funny by printing an obituary for a fictional character, but they could’ve waited . . . even a day would’ve probably helped.

Carrie Underwood is celebrating 15 years of being a Grand Ole Opry member with a two-show performance at the Opry on May 13th.  There will also be performances from Deana Carter, Michael Ray, and more. One hour of the night’s first show will air live on Circle Television at 9:00 p.m. Central.  But the entire show will air on WSM Radio and Opry’s website.

Last year, Gwen Stefani shared footage of Blake Shelton in a full body, pink bunny costume . . . and this Easter, Blake broke it out again.  Gwen posted a little montage on Instagram, and captioned it, “Bunny Blake strikes again!”

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??
