New World Record Buck on Display!
After 3 years of chasing an elusive buck named Mufasa, a tag was finally punched Nov. 2, 2018 in Edgar County, Illinois. Pope and Young scored him during a special panel in Omaha, Nebraska with a record shattering 327 and 7/8 Net, 337 and 1/8 Gross score. Making him the new number one hunter taken whitetail of all time.

The song has a lot of truth to it so I had to ask Caryn what does he think of the song?
Accidental Cowgirl is her brand new song.

Welcome to The List,
Spotify is cracking down on robot rock stars, and it’s about time. They’re rolling out a “Verified by Spotify” badge for actual human artists. Light green checkmark means real person, not a laptop having feelings. After deleting 75 million spam tracks, yeah… we needed this. Congrats, humanity, you’re officially fact-checked by Spotify.

David Allan Coe fans just got a surprise from beyond the vault, and it’s not a ghost story. His longtime manager says a shelved 2017 album is finally coming out. Target date is September 6th, what would’ve been his 87th birthday. Unreleased songs, new material, and maybe some outlaw magic. Proof that country legends don’t retire… they just delay their drops.

George Birge almost didn’t make the team, and now he’s out here making charts. He had to win a walk-on golf tournament just for a shot. Then played in front of the coach like his future depended on it. Spoiler alert… it did, and he nailed it under pressure. Moral of the story, clutch swings build country singers.

Big weekend alert, cancel your plans or pretend you had some. The Kentucky Derby is off and running with hats getting bigger than egos. NBA Playoffs round one is wrapping up, brackets already busted. Wuthering Heights hits streaming if you’re feeling dramatic and windswept. And the iHeartCountry Festival 2026 brings the country party without the cover charge.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
