The List for Friday, January 27th 2023

Welcome to The List,

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports Jay Leno fell off his motorcycle last week. He broke his collarbone and two ribs. He also has two cracked kneecaps. Jay was testing his vintage 1940 Indian motorcycle when he got clotheslined while driving down an alley. Jay hit a wire and fell off his bike. It kept going. His show “Jay Leno’s Garage” is at the end of it’s run as well, ending Jay’s 30-year run of having a show on an NBC/Universal channel.  (Unless they give him yet ANOTHER show.)

The International News says casinos and betting agencies are offering odds on Jimmy Kimmel getting slapped when he hosts the Oscars. Jimmy says, “Will any host or award presenter be slapped during the show? If you put $100 on yes, you win $1,200 — which, I have to say, seems like they’re encouraging someone with a gambling problem to slap me.”  or just trying to get some interest back into their show.

Miranda Lambert and Brendan McLoughlin celebrated their fourth anniversary with a post on Instagram.  She included photos and, no surprise, Brendan was shirtless in half of them.

—–

The Carol Burnett Show aired on CBS, but it’s NBC that is honoring the comedy legend with a 90th birthday celebration. Burnett will celebrate her milestone birthday on April 26, and NBC will air Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter + Love that same day at 7 p.m. Central. Burnett is one of the funniest people to ever grace television screens and is still busy acting. She just had a recurring role on Better Call Saul.

—–

Luke Combs’ next album is called “Gettin’ Old”, and it’ll be out March 24th.  It’s a sequel to his last album, “Growin’ Up.  He even mashed them together to create the name of his new single, Growin’ Up and Gettin’ Old, which drops today.

—–

And finally, great news….”The Simpsons” have been renewed through 2025, which means it will surpass 800 episodes.

The List for Tuesday, February 10th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Will there be another Austin Powers? Rumors say Mike Myers is turning down massive offers to bring the franchise back. Sources claim he does not need the money, already made tens of millions, and still cashes in every Halloween. Apparently he is focused on dad life instead of shagadelic life. So no, baby… he is not desperate.

-----

Cody Johnson just confirmed he and Luke Combs finally cut a song together. Fans have been waiting years for this bromance to hit the studio. They toured Australia and New Zealand together, and now the friendship is officially on vinyl. And that is not all. Cody also says there is a track with Brothers Osborne on the new album. That record is about to be stacked.

-----

Ella Langley just hit number one on the all-genre Hot 100 with “Choosin’ Texas.”

That puts her in elite company with legends like Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Jeannie C. Riley, and Beyoncé. She is also reportedly the first female artist to hold number one on Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, and the Hot 100 at the same time. Released October 7th and it has been sprinting ever since. That is not just a hit. That is a takeover.

-----

And speaking of Taylor Swift, betting sites say there is a 50 percent chance her childhood friend Abigail Anderson is Maid of Honor. They also give a 25 percent chance that Vera Wang designs the dress. We are now gambling on bridal parties. This wedding might need its own sportsbook. Only in 2026, folks.
