The List for Thursday May 21st 2020

With everything that’s happening right now The tornado in Nashville, to COVID-19 Thomas Rhett’s new song “Be A Light” really touches a nerve for him… “I feel like now there is no better time to release a song like ‘Be A Light.’ I just feel like the world was in darkness for a minute, and so, I think a song like this can be really encouraging for people.” “Be A Light” also features vocals from Reba McEntire, Hillary Scott from Lady Antebellum and Keith Urban and Christian music singer Chris Tomlin

With Memorial Day weekend coming up fast Country music stars are paying tribute – Jordan Davis Thanks The Men And Women Who Serve And Protect Our Country … “You know, both my grandparents were in the service; my cousin was also a Marine, so the military hits close to home. I mean I can’t say enough about ’em. We live in the best country in the world, and it’s because of those guys and because of the people that came before ’em. So, I can’t thank ’em enough. I wish we had Memorial Day every day, but it is great to have one day to thank the men and the women that gave it all.”

Ace Showbiz says Game of Thrones star Jason Momoa and Peter Dinklage are going to star in a new vampire movie based on Van Helsing. Dinklage will play a vampire hunter, who teams with Momoa’s undead character to scam superstitious townspeople. Vampires decide to make an example of them for conning people.

Being on lockdown during a pandemic can sure bring out the creativity in people…Lady Antebellum’s Dave Haywood And His Wife Perform A Coronavirus-Inspired Parody Of Brian McKnight’s “Back At One” … Their version of the song is called “Back To Phase One.”

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

The List for Thursday, March 19th 2026

Welcome to The List…

Hollywood’s biggest fear is officially here. Dead actors… still booking roles. A new movie is using A.I. to bring Val Kilmer back. Yeah. From the grave… straight to the premiere. The director says Val wanted this. His family signed off too. Which is great… until your Netflix suggestions start haunting you. Somewhere an Oscar just felt uncomfortable.

-----

Tom Brady says he wears a disguise to his kids’ games. Not kidding. Hoodie. Hat. Full undercover quarterback mode. Apparently the kids don’t want attention on them because… you know… their dad is TOM BRADY. Imagine trying to sneak into a gym when you’re built like a superhero statue. Sir… we still know it’s you.

-----

Rumor is Keith Urban might be going through a midlife crisis after the split. Sources say he wants to live the single life again. Totally different person now. Which honestly just sounds like every guy who suddenly discovers energy drinks and fitted jeans. Next step is obvious. Corvette. New Balance. Bluetooth headset.

-----

Kenny Chesney just launched his own record label. Big move. Real boss energy. It’s named after his boat… because of course it is. And the first artist he signed…drumroll… Kenny Chesney. Man skipped the middleman and hired himself. HR meeting must be real smooth.

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