The List for Monday, January 11th 2021

Welcome to The List -

Lady A Star Charles Kelley says when he's not on stage he loves spending time with his son ... "One of my favorite things to do with Ward now is … you know, there’s so many parents that are like, ‘No TV! No TV.’ We love our movie nights. I’ll come home from workin’ all day, and I love just settling down and we’ll sit down, pop popcorn and cuddle up together and just watch whatever cartoon movie he wants to watch. And we go on hikes, too, together, which is always fun.”

When you make it in the music business...how do you know...it's different for everyone...We asked Luke Combs about when he knew he had made it..."I think the honest answer to that would be when I could pay my bills doing music and not have to do another job. That was making it for me. That was the goal, was not having to work 40 hours. "

Comedian Gabriel 'Fluffy' Iglesias tells Kelly Clarkson what he would do if he could go back in time....."I'd probably start working out...I'd be like 'I'm coming to you from burger future' I'd be on that tread mill right now trust me." He says he's eating alot of protein in what he's calling a Dirty Keto diet...he's lost fifty pounds already.

The Irish Mirror says Brad Pitt is kickboxing and learning knife fighting in order to play a hitman in his next movie. A source tells the newspaper, “Brad is in the process of retraining and rewiring his body for a stunt-filled action film, which he hasn’t had to do in years. It’s risky due to his age now and also because he’ll try to do his own stunts.

Jimmy Fallon talks about the first week of 2021..."Well guys the first week of 2021 was quite a year...Honestly if I knew what this week was going to be like, everyone would have spent New Years Eve Poppin' bottles of Pepto Bismol.

You can catch The List weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on Iowa's BEST Country KIX 101.1

The List for Friday, January 8th 2021

Welcome to The List -

Thomas Rhett talks about his new song "What's Your Country Song" and what it means to him and what he hopes it does for you ... "My song, 'What's Your Country Song,' really is about an ode to all the songs that, I think, helped me grow up and finding what your country song was and what your country song is, and how those songs take you back to a really memorable moment in time."

Niko Moon had some drama on the set of his video for 'Good Time' ... "So there was one little bit of drama when we were making the “Good Time” music video. And that is the main car that’s in the video that I’m driving is a 1971 Buick GS. And as we’re shooting the music video and I’m standing in front of it singing, it starts to smoke everywhere. I thought we accidentally blew up this car. But come to find out it was just a leaky hose and it was like a $5 fix, but it really had me scared there for a minute."

Vanna White says she had a blast filming "Celebrity Wheel of Fortune" with Chrissy Metz and Drew Carey. She recalls her most embarrassing wardrobe malfunction after a long dinner break. "I remember I had meatloaf, mashed potatoes, banana pudding the whole thing and I had a very tight outfit to wear after lunch and my belt just popped off." Sounds like the meatloaf, mashed potatoes and pudding were fine...it was the 'whole thing' she should have left alone "Celebrity Wheel of Fortune" continues for the next eight weeks in primetime on ABC.

The National Enquirer claims Ben Affleck is reprising his role as Batman in ''The Flash'' and a Justice League film because of the money especially when he gets $5 million for a couple of weeks work. Ben says now he will play Batman as long as they keep paying him!

Jimmy Fallon has news about the 'Puppy Bowl' this year. "I saw that Discovery has confirmed the Puppy Bowl will go on as scheduled this year... whew! said absolutely no one..."

Welcome to The List -

We asked Chris Lane what it's like to still have his brother in the band "It's great I have my twin brother, I'm glad he can be a part of this with me. You know we started this together and he's still drumming with the band. What about the rest of the band? We're still just getting to know each other, we know each other really well but, they've only been with the band for a year now. But, we're best of friends out on the road everyone gets along great it's alot of fun."

Most people know Darius Rucker loves to golf to find out that his son loves the game just as much as he does is great! "You know, having my son be a golfer and love it the way that he does is so amazing for me because you know we could do it for the rest of our lives. We could play from different tees and we could play together for as long as we can physically play. I just look forward to those times with him…and the times we’ve already had have been amazing.”

Tim Allen talks about reviving his "Home Improvement" character for a special crossover episode of "Last Man Standing." "A lot of challenges for me as an actor, and then I play against another individual then they put obviously put me in the scene. We had to add an element of reality to it and it got kinda sad about it because he's lost his job at 'Tool Time' I don't want to give to much of the story away." "Last Man Standing" the crossover episode airs tonight on Fox.

Randy Jackson talks about his new game show 'Name That Tune' and how the new version is set up. "Now the beginning round is a little different we put in 'Mix Tape', we still have 'Spin The Wheel' which is like melody roulette and the final round 'Golden Medley' is just like the classic iconic gameshow." 'Name That Tune' airs Wednesdays on Fox.

Sad news to report today - Sacha Baron Cohen tells Variety magazine that he is done playing Borat. There was a purpose to this movie, and I don’t really see the purpose to doing it again. So yeah, he’s locked away in the cupboard.''

Welcome to The List -

Kelsea Ballerini talks about how it's been quarantining with her husband Morgan Evans "It's been good for us, we're so used to trying to like, cram a whole weeks worth of time together into one day because we're both touring artists. So, it's been really nice just to have the time to actually exist together and like you know just do life in a very real way."

Gwen Stefani tells Jimmy Fallon how Blake Shelton proposed to her. "Out of no where he just has this ring that's like in a cabinet, when I opened it he's like 'get the fire starter' and I opened the cabinet and there's this ring there...it was pretty like 'What??!!" and we both started balling."

Ralph Macchio star of 'Cobra Kai' talks about why people love the show and what you can expect from Season 3 "Johnny and Daniel both have to fix and own up to the responsibilities of what's happened to the kids. So Laruso is in a very bad place and he has to find the balance again in his life and with Kreese the big bad John Kreese taking over Cobra Kai, it's like how are we going to fight for the soul of the San Fernando Valley."
