Welcome to The List -

The football season has just started and Matt Stell is thinking Super Bowl already "Obviously, the Pats will be in the mix, Kansas City will be in the mix. Man, what a bunch of talent that they’ve got. I think Drew Brees has 104% approval rating across the country. No one doesn’t like Drew Brees, including me, it’s going to be a fun season. I’m excited to get it started.”

John Legend was On The Kelly Clarkson Show and it looks like John and Kelly are cooking up a plot for The Voice this season - (Kelly) "We could just team up to ensure Shelton looses. I am down for this....(john) I don't know if Gwen will participate in this alliance (Kelly) Maybe she WILL she's never won! I just don't want Shelton to take it again." John and wife Chrissy Tiegan just celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary and Kelly sent them a a huge pizza.. I guess she figured they were hungry...

MovieWeb says Michael B Jordan may star in the Scarface reboot. The website claims he would play Al Pacino's character Tony Montana. Filmmaker Luca Guadagnino says the script has to be great - and it is...Our Tony Montana has to be current. and I don't want to imitate anything...

Ellen DeGeneres was back on her show yesterday and had this to say about the work environment allegations - "As you may have heard, this summer there were allegations of a toxic work environment at our show. Then there was an investigation, I learned that things happened here, that never should have happened, I take that very seriously and I want to say that I am so sorry to the people who are affected. We have made the necessary changes, and today we are starting a new chapter"

Jimmy Fallon payed tribute to the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg. and talks about 2020 "2020 really is insane, to put things in perspective. The biggest news of 2019 was baby Yoda....seriously this election already feels like a tense Thanksgiving dinner, Now it's like your uncle rolled in straight from rehab."

Here is Amber's sweet letter about her husband:

I love my husband Ken more than words can convey, and I would love this opportunity to share it with your listeners. Since our small wedding 24 years ago, he's worn (and loved) a slim, gold wedding band. Like his ring, we show our age more now. We are not as shiny as we once tried to be, we are a little mishapen around the middle, and have some weak spots. He's not a flashy man, but he deserves more. As an essential worker in the electric department who never missed work during the pandemic and put in crazy hours during the derecho, only to come home to an 85 degree powerless house with storm damage of its own - he never once complained. And he would never complain that his ring has seen better days, nor would he want to spend money on a replacement. This contest is an amazing opportunity to show him how much I appreciate all he does for me, for our family, for his job, and for our community. Every time he looks at it he would be reminded of my true and undying love for him and the fact that I wanted to shout it out to all of Kix country.

UPDATE: Doris was able to get a hold of Amber!!
