Welcome to The List,
Kim Kardashian is allegedly eyeing the White House! An insider says she’s got the law degree, the connections, and the ambition to run for office. Honestly, if reality TV can become reality politics... we’re just one selfie away from "State of the Union: Sponsored by SKIMS." America, are we ready for First Lady North West?

Word is Blake Shelton’s pushing 300 pounds, and Gwen Stefani is not loving it. She’s worried about his fried-chicken-fueled lifestyle, calling it a ticking time bomb. When she’s there? He behaves. When she’s gone? It’s all brisket, biscuits, and barbecue. Man’s out here living like he’s at a state fair… daily.

Thomas Rhett’s got four daughters—and apparently, they’re tougher music critics than Nashville radio. Forget lyrics or production—if it doesn’t get the living room jumpin’, they’re hitting SKIP. His oldest is starting to appreciate songwriting… the others? If it don’t bop, it drops.

Since Superman hit theaters, Google searches for “adopt a dog near me” jumped 513%! Director James Gunn called it the biggest blessing to come from the movie and that’s saying something! So forget kryptonite, apparently the Man of Steel’s real superpower is turning you into a dog mom.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
