OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS THE COUCH JUMPING, BEAR!!

Bear is a handsome, two year old well-mannered boy who’s ready to be a part of an active and loving home. He’s fully housetrained and knows commands like sit and shake, and he even enjoys playing fetch! His favorite toys are balls and ropes, and he loves interactive playtime.

Bear is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations, heartworm tested, and microchipped. He’s a smart, energetic companion looking for a family who can match his playful spirit and shower him with love.

Bear is looking for his permanent couch to call home. Since he is our KIX Critter of the week, his adoption fee is only $75.00!!

The List for Monday, March 23rd 2026

Welcome to The List,

Keith Urban is officially boarding the yacht rock cruise. The country star says a full covers album is coming. It will feature classic yacht rock songs and only one original track. He even teased fans with a smooth cover of Stephen Bishop’s “On and On.” No release date yet. But apparently Keith brought boat shoes.

-----

ABC may be ready to dump The Bachelorette for good. Insiders claim executives now call the franchise “toxic.” Critics say the show stopped being about love and started chasing messy drama. Ratings have been sliding for years. The big question inside ABC now is simple. Is it finally time to pull the plug.

-----

Travis Kelce is apparently running an investigation. Someone has been leaking details about his wedding plans with Taylor Swift. Sources say Travis is trying to figure out who is talking. He is also trying to keep Taylor calm about the chaos. Because nothing says romance like a celebrity leak hunt.

-----

Luke Combs just turned Las Vegas into a country concert record book. His show at Allegiant Stadium pulled in 70,921 fans. That breaks the stadium record previously set by a massive boxing match. Country music just beat prize fighting in Vegas. Luke Combs basically threw the knockout punch.

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