It just feels a little corny, cheesy, like, loving the attention.  Every time I’ve ever seen a video he’s just always drunk. And I hope she doesn’t go on that … I see her drinking more now, ’cause of, like, the company you keep.” Her funeral is Friday….

The List for Monday, May 6th 2024

Welcome to The List,

The roast of Tom Brady aired live on Netflix last night, and it was pretty wild. There were jokes about Gisele and her jiu-jitsu instructor, Tom abandoning his kids to play football, the cheating scandals, Bill Belichick was surprisingly good, including a crack about Tide Pods being one of Gronk's favorite foods. There's a great rundown of the roast here, with a lot of the best jokes, There might be some questionable language…But if you’re a Brady fan…or NOT you might like these.

-----

Morgan Wallen had his day in court this past Friday, but was allowed to skip it.  His attorney was there in his stead.  No plea was entered, and the case was set for another hearing on August 15th. Several things can happen in the case.  We might have a hearing, we might settle the case, or the case might continue."  So pretty much every option, Meanwhile, Chief's, the site of Morgan's infamous chair-throw, put a sign up on their roof warning people not to do what Morgan did.  The sign says, "Don't even think about it, you are not Morgan Wallen."

-----

Randy Travis confirmed A.I. was used for his new song that came out on Friday, and it's actually pretty amazing.  "Where That Came From" is his first new song since his near-fatal stroke in 2013 that robbed him of his voice.  So, A.I. is allowing him to finally continue his music career. Which makes it a little harder to hate on A.I. than it was a week ago . . .

-----

"Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" is coming back to ABC for its 25th anniversary. In this new season, pairs of celebrities will compete to win up to $1 million for a charity of their choice.  It'll premiere July 10th. Jimmy Kimmel is returning to host.
