Tis the season for holiday album announcements, and we all know the season just wouldn’t be the same without the smooth vocals of Mr. Christmas himself, Brett Eldredge.  He solidified himself as an integral part of the holiday season with the release of his 2016 Christmas album, Glow, and is spreading more Christmas cheer this year with a brand-new project, Mr. Christmas!  Between HIM and Mariah Carey…I think we’re covered for Christmas music.

Everyone knows and loves Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, but she’s getting downright evil for her next role. Deadline reports that she has been cast as the Evil Queen in Disney’s live-action adaptation of Snow White. It was previously announced that Rachel Zegler was cast as Snow White. Production on the movie is reportedly to start sometime in 2022. Although, an exact start date has yet to be revealed.

This week, I talked about Carol Baskin’s refusal to be a part of the Tiger King sequel today it’s Joe Exotics turn…The big cat collector shared with his 367,000 followers that he has been diagnosed with an “aggressive cancer.” Exotic didn’t specifically say the name of his cancer but he mentioned that he recently had a prostate biopsy performed and his attorney confirmed the diagnosis.

The List for Thursday, February 5th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Rumors are flying that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have allegedly set a wedding date. A so-called source says the planning is “military-level precise,” which tracks, because Taylor hates surprises and Travis runs NFL playbooks for a living. Pop music, professional football, and Hollywood elite all in one room. Locked down, protected, unforgettable. Basically the most intense group project ever attempted.

-----

Former Bachelor host Chris Harrison is launching a new dating show for people who want a “traditional, marriage-minded partnership built on commitment and shared values.” Which apparently is now considered edgy programming. Somewhere, reality TV just gasped. This is not roses and drama. This is compatibility and emotional maturity.

-----

Before Luke Combs made it big, he had $200 left in his bank account. That money went toward mastering one song, “Hurricane.” He releases it, sells about 10,000 copies the first week, and uses the cash to finish the rest of the album. Then pitches it to labels. And that, kids, is how you bet on yourself and win.

-----

Toby Keith, Kenny Rogers, and Ed Harris are being inducted into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. The ceremony happens in April in Oklahoma City. They’re joining legends like George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, Kurt Russell, and Burt Reynolds. That is a hall with serious swagger. Cowboy hats optional. Legends required.

Catch The List, with Jonathan Knight weekday afternoon at 4:20. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
