Welcome to The List,

It was a big night last night for Country music at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards…with Morgan Wallen walking away with Top Country Artist, Male Artist and Top Country Album for “Dangerous: The Double Album”

Another big winner was Gabby Barrett for Top Country Female Artist, Top Collaboration, and Top Country Song. She says winning these awards is an amazing feeling and blessed that she can involve her family. “To have a husband that’s super supportive and knows how much it takes.  I’m just very blessed.” Gabby’s husband is her guitar player Cade Foehner.

Another big deal last night was Duran Duran!!  The British 80’s pop group was on stage for the very first time EVER on the awards show.  The guys still making music after 40 years and have an album on the way!!  They’re putting finishing touches on ‘Future Past’ due out October 22nd

Someone won Friday’s Mega Millions lottery jackpot so Tuesday’s jackpot is worth $20 million.  The winning ticket was sold in Pennsylvania…

In case you missed the American Idol: Grand Finale …. Chayce Beckham is the winner of American Idol. Willie Spence comes in second while Grace Kinstler comes in third.

This weekend…check out Netflix and  'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery'

“Wake Up Dead Man” drops Benoit Blanc (Ben-WAH Blanc) into another bonkers billionaire circus where everybody’s lying, nobody’s normal, and the murder victim apparently didn’t stay dead. It’s twisty, messy, and deliciously chaotic.

The List for Thursday, December 11th 2025

Welcome to The List,

The Kansas City Chiefs are reportedly going out of their way to respect Travis Kelce’s relationship with Taylor Swift. They haven’t monetized the romance, they don’t splash her on the big screens, and they don’t blast her music in the stadium. Travis says he appreciates it because when he’s on the field, “it’s all about the team.”  Meanwhile, judging by how he’s been playing the last few games… it seems like his mind might be somewhere else. Maybe in a cardigan.

-----

Tim McGraw stunned fans at a recent concert after stepping onstage in skin-tight suede pants with tassels down the sides. Parade Magazine says the Internet responded instantly with commentary like: “Dude raided Lainey Wilson’s closet,” “Lainey Wilson wore them better,” and my favorite — “Lainey McGraw.” I mean… if you’re gonna rock tassels, commit. Somewhere, Faith Hill is lighting a prayer candle.

-----

Jelly Roll just had the moment dreams are made of. While chatting on Joe Rogan’s podcast, Joe played him a recorded message from Craig Morgan officially inviting Jelly to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry. Jelly immediately broke down in tears. This is the kind of full-circle moment that hits harder than his songs. From jail cells to the Opry… man, that story writes itself.

-----

Sharon Osbourne revealed heartbreaking details about Ozzy’s final night. She said he asked her to kiss him and hold him tight, and that he was incredibly happy in his final weeks thanks to the “Back to the Beginning” concert. Say what you want about the Osbournes… but that man loved his music, loved his fans, and clearly adored Sharon until the very end. That’s a tough one.

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