Pack the Backpack, presented by Central Office Supply, a division of Minuteman and Kix 101.1! Each month during the school year, we will be awarding $101 to a Kix Country classroom to help out with supplies. We will award the prize on the last Wednesday of the month. You can listen to each new winner at 8:30a on the Morning Kix Start.
Our latest winner is Teresa Rasmussen – Behavioral Teacher @ Edwards Elementary School, she was nominated by Bethany Hays
Teresa went above & beyond for my son, he has gone through so much trauma & she stood by him & myself every step of the way being so understanding & caring, helping me help him work though all the chaos that he went through & to control his emotions & also standing by him & being understanding when his father passed of overdose. She is so caring & gives everything she has to help all of her students & just all children & I feel like this would be the best way to show all of the appreciation & love I have for her & appreciation for everything that she does as the most AMAZING teacher I have ever met.
Take a listen to our surprise interview with Teresa

Welcome to The List,
The Hollywood Walk of Fame just announced its Class of 2026—and it’s STACKED: Miley Cyrus, Shaq, Demi Moore, Timothée Chalamet, Stanley Tucci, and Gabriel Iglesias. That sidewalk's about to be shinier than Shaq’s head and smell like Gabriel’s churros.

Megan Moroney just dropped a sultry little cover of Toby Keith’s “Who’s Your Daddy?” for Apple Music’s Nashville Sessions. A whole playlist of Toby tributes—just in time to soundtrack your fireworks, flag cakes,
-----
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom allegedly split because watching each other’s careers fizzle out was too painful. He wants a McConaughey-style comeback, and she’s exhausted from “American Idol.” Basically, it’s a Hollywood version of “Who forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer?”
-----
Post Malone just opened a massive honky-tonk in Nashville called “Posty’s.” It's got six bars, three stages, and a rooftop patio—plus bolted-down chairs, just in case Morgan Wallen swings by. If you spill a drink there, odds are it’s on purpose.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
