The List for Thursday, September 25th 2025

Welcome to The List,

“So the NFL told Taylor Swift no when she wanted full control of the halftime show and all the ad space…basically the VIP package nobody else gets. The NFL said no… because apparently only the ref gets that power.”

-----

Charlie Sheen is making the rounds…doing podcasts like Rogan and Jake Paul..even a Netflix Bio.  And he’s out here casually admitting among a lot of other things he’s been with 47,000 women. That’s not a number, that’s a census. And his advice? “Don’t wear hamburger pants on safari unless you wanna get attacked by a lion.”  Charlie is still the human version of a fever dream.

-----

Miranda Lambert says her marriage survives on coffee and silence. Apparently, Brendan hands her a cup in bed every morning without speaking, like “take this, or I die.” Miranda… are you flirting with me??

-----

“People” magazine is letting fans vote for the “Sexiest Country Star.” The finalists? Cody Johnson, Riley Green, Shaboozey, and Warren Zeiders. Just four dudes who all look like they just finished chopping wood but still had time to moisturize.

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

September Pack the Backpack Winner: Aaron Backlin

The September Minuteman Printing & Graphics Pack the Backpack winner, is Aaron Backlin – Spanish / Computer Science Teacher @ Grinnell High School. He was nominated by Mary Lindberg, and here is what they wrote to Kix 101.1.

Grinnell-Newburg High School was unable to fill an open high school Spanish teacher position for the 2025-2026 school year leaving Mr. Backlin as the only full-time high school Spanish teacher. Because of this, Mr. Backlin's teaching schedule wasn't finalized until less than a week before the school year started. He graciously switched one of his classes from a standard class to an accelerated class very last minute to allow for the incoming 9th graders to have a path towards AP Spanish. He is always willing to do what is best for the students and the school even if it creates more work for himself. He is always smiling and willing to help a student. In addition to his Spanish teaching, he assists with high school debate and was selected by the students as a commencement speaker in 2024. He also helps lead a trip to Spain once every three years. He is a positive, engaged, welcoming, hardworking part of the school and the community who makes an impact inside and outside of the classroom.

On the last Wednesday of the month during the school year, we award $101 to a Kix Country classroom to help out with supplies. Nominate a Kix Country teacher today at Kixweb.com.

The List for Wednesday, September 24th 2025

 

Welcome to The List,

Eric Church just shared a wild Taylor Swift throwback on Jimmy Fallon. Back in 2006, he got dropped as Rascal Flatts’ tour opener replaced by 16-year-old Taylor fresh off "Tim McGraw." Eric found out online and joked she owed him her first gold record. A few weeks later, Taylor handed it to him at a festival, engraved: "To Eric, thanks for playing too long and too loud."

-----

Kacey Musgraves confused some Nashville fans at her latest Ryman appearance. They thought they were at a concert turns out it was a live taping of a podcast about mushrooms and psychedelics shaping her music. Cue disappointed fans in "cute concert outfits" walking out. One TikToker even said, “No singing, lots of big words I didn’t understand.”

-----

Camila Cabello surprised a bride-to-be in Iowa last weekend by performing her song "First Man" live at a hotel bar. She even shared a sweet backstory about the song being about her dad and father-daughter dances, then personalized it with the bride’s name. A cousin called it “pure magic.”

-----

The Daily Mail says Travis Kelce’s mom, Donna, is already pressuring Taylor Swift to have kids after just one month of engagement. Travis and his brother Jason joked about it, with Jason claiming he’s Donna’s “favorite” because he already has kids
