The List for Friday September 18th 2020

Welcome to The List –

Keith Urbans new album ‘The Speed Of Now” is out today and he tells US how he came up with the name…“This title came to me in October of last year, and it was more of a comment about how fast everything was going. So, the title was a bit of a comment on that, but it took a 180 and suddenly now means something very, very different.” Keith’s second single from his new album ‘God Whispered Your Name’ is at number 13 on the US Hot Country Songs Chart for Billboard.

Luke Combs talks about what his experience getting married during a pandemic was like “It was really wild getting married this year….we were going to get married on August 1st, whether that meant no one could be there or a million people could be there. We have just been waiting for a while to get married and I’m so excited that we were able to do it with a small group of our closest friends and family”

Creator of Family Guy and American Dad Seth MacFarlane was on with Jimmy Fallon and talks about keeping busy during quarantine “I’ve been stockpiling scripts of all kinds and I have a recording studio so I’ve been recording Family Guy and American Dad, We’re hoping that we’ll be back soon.”

Sunday’s Emmy Awards will take place in 20 cities and 10 countries. ABC is using 130 cameras to produce the show. Jimmy Kimmel will host the awards show from inside the Staples Center. There will be no red carpet or audience. E! News is hosting a virtual red carpet ceremony with Giuliana Rancic and Vivica A Fox.

Jimmy Fallon talks about Amazon.com’s new invite-only site “I saw that Amazon has launched a new invite only section of it’s sight called ‘Luxury Stores” now you can order a five thousand dollar Oscar DeLorenta gown and have the package thrown over your fence…It’s about time you can order a designer dress that comes in the same box as your ragu sauce and Lucky Charms”

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

The List for Thursday, April 2nd 2026

Welcome to The List,

Horror fans, buckle up, because nightmare fuel just got a backstory. That creepy Aunt Gladys from Weapons is getting her own prequel. The same witch who basically ruined recess forever. Now we’re diving into her origin story. Cool, cool… just what we needed. Sleep is officially canceled this fall.

-----

ABC went full chaos for April Fool’s Day, announcing Miss Piggy as the next Bachelorette. Twenty-five men competing for love, drama, and probably karate chops. Jesse Palmer hosting, roses flying, egos bruised. And yes, they even joked about criminal records. Finally, a dating show where someone might actually get slapped on night one.

-----

Garth Brooks might be hitting the road, but apparently his nerves got there first. Reports say he’s stressed about touring and not having Trisha by his side. Because even country legends need emotional support spouses. Between legal drama and stage jitters, it’s a lot. Moral of the story, even Garth gets the pre-show butterflies.

-----

Taylor Sheridan says if critics are mad, he’s doing his job right. The guy behind Yellowstone is basically trolling reviewers on purpose. He wants them fired up, writing angry think pieces. Because nothing sells like outrage and cowboy drama. Imagine getting paid to annoy people… oh wait, radio.

The List for Wednesday, April 1st 2026

Welcome to The List,

Meghan Markle allegedly thought she could jump the royal line. A new book claims she believed she should be queen next. Said she was smarter, better, and worked harder than Kate. That’s not confidence, that’s skipping the entire family tree.

-----

Two Blackhawk helicopters hovering over Kid Rock’s house raised eyebrows fast. Army pilots got suspended while the investigation played out. Then the Defense Secretary stepped in and shut it down. Suspensions lifted, no punishment, case closed just like that.

-----

Keith Urban might be ready to say a little more. A report claims he felt iced out of Nicole Kidman’s interview. She talked family and life but didn’t mention him once. Now there’s talk he could finally tell his side. Nothing says romance like a possible press tour response.

-----

And if you saw Jason Aldean storm off Colbert… relax. That viral story is completely made up from top to bottom. Wrong show name, bad details, zero credible sources behind it. The internet really said “let’s just create chaos today.” Moral of the story, not everything trending is actually true…I know…surprise right??
