Welcome to The List,
Today we start with Russell Dickerson as he talks about his country roots and how he was brought up in country music. “Being raised on country like old Garth Brooks is what I was raised on. The first time I sang in public was in my fourth-grade talent show, singing ‘Standing Outside The Fire’. So, obviously country is my roots.” Russell has released ‘Studio 900 Sessions’ which are his songs with a new spin on them stripped back to THEIR roots you can check it out on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes or wherever you stream music.

As far as hangover cures…and there’s A LOT of them…I kinda like Jon Pardi’s approach…he says a ‘Bloody Mary’ does the trick…but adds a warning…“My hangover cure is Bloody Mary’s, but be careful – because once you have a couple, don’t go to beer, because if you go to beer, you’re gonna start drinking again and you’ll end up a morning drunk. OR if you want to go the non-alcoholic route, there’s nothing you can do for hangovers. [laughs] You just go deal with it.” And by deal with it means Tylenol and sleep…

Welcome to The List,
Diddy is allegedly gearing up for a one-billion-dollar legal smackdown against Netflix over the docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning. His camp says there’s unauthorized personal footage in the series. The director fired back saying the footage came to them legally, with full rights, and added that Diddy has basically filmed himself obsessively for decades. She also says they repeatedly asked his legal team for comment and heard… nothing. I’ve watched it and let’s just say, this lawsuit is gonna need popcorn. We with him all the luck.

Lainey Wilson and Devlin Hodges are reportedly planning a big, expensive wedding and sources say Lainey wants the best of the best. Here’s the twist: neither one of them is swimming in mega-millions. But Lainey loves everyone, considers everyone a friend, and apparently invited half of Nashville. Rumored guests include Dolly, Blake and Gwen, Luke Bryan, Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen, and more. At this point, it’s less a wedding and more a CMA after-party with vows.

And finally… when Leslie Nielsen died, he went out exactly how you’d expect. A fart machine was placed in his casket and anyone walking up to the bar at his funeral could push a button and make him fart. Even in death, the man committed to the bit. That’s not just comedy… that’s legacy planning.
