KIX-KLASH RE-HASH

Welcome to The List,
Darth Vader just Force-choked his way to the top spot. It’s Star Wars Day, and a new list crowned him number one. Han Solo slides into second, Leia takes third, rebellion stays strong. Meanwhile, Yoda’s somewhere judging your life choices in silence. May the Fourth be with your bad decisions today.

Charlize Theron just laid down the ultimate parenting reality check. She says her daughters will earn their own money, no shortcuts. And their first cars? Old-school Datsuns, because crashes are coming. Which is bold, considering Datsun hasn’t been a thing in years. Nothing builds character like a car you can’t Google.

Tucker Wetmore just had a full “main character” moment overseas. He wins New Male Artist of the Year at the ACM Awards. Then, his mom walks onstage in London with the trophy. Thomas Rhett pops up on video like it’s a country music Avengers scene. Nothing says you made it like mom showing up internationally.

Somewhere out there, confidence is doing a little too much. A woman says she’s marrying Riley Green, no doubts at all. Claims they met on Facebook and even talked on the phone. Yeah… so has half the internet and a guy named “Steve.” Love is blind, but this one might need Wi-Fi verification.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1

The song has a lot of truth to it so I had to ask Caryn what does he think of the song?
Accidental Cowgirl is her brand new song.
Welcome to The List,
Spotify is cracking down on robot rock stars, and it’s about time. They’re rolling out a “Verified by Spotify” badge for actual human artists. Light green checkmark means real person, not a laptop having feelings. After deleting 75 million spam tracks, yeah… we needed this. Congrats, humanity, you’re officially fact-checked by Spotify.

David Allan Coe fans just got a surprise from beyond the vault, and it’s not a ghost story. His longtime manager says a shelved 2017 album is finally coming out. Target date is September 6th, what would’ve been his 87th birthday. Unreleased songs, new material, and maybe some outlaw magic. Proof that country legends don’t retire… they just delay their drops.
-----
George Birge almost didn’t make the team, and now he’s out here making charts. He had to win a walk-on golf tournament just for a shot. Then played in front of the coach like his future depended on it. Spoiler alert… it did, and he nailed it under pressure. Moral of the story, clutch swings build country singers.

Big weekend alert, cancel your plans or pretend you had some. The Kentucky Derby is off and running with hats getting bigger than egos. NBA Playoffs round one is wrapping up, brackets already busted. Wuthering Heights hits streaming if you’re feeling dramatic and windswept. And the iHeartCountry Festival 2026 brings the country party without the cover charge.
