The List for Tuesday, April 19th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Elle King tells IllinoisEntertainer.com that she not only wrote music but took up boxing during the pandemic. But she did something a little outside the box…she took up boxing!  Saying Boxing is genuinely the most amazing thing because it’s such an incredible release of energy.  My neighbors are very close to me, so they can all definitely hear me hittin the bags”

Garth Brooks tells Entertainment Tonight that he wants to do a dive bar tour. “If there was going to be another tour, I’d like to go to dive bars, 75 of them… let’s line ’em up and let’s go. Those are the most fun you can have that’s somewhat legal.” Meanwhile his new downtown Nashville bar ‘Low Places”….is still in the planning stages with no opening date released just yet.

Tim McGraw tells CMT that the first thing he did after filming the final season of ‘1883’ was shave his beard. He had to grow one for the show. And had to dye it every day to make sure it looked right. The first thing he did once they wrapped was shave that thing off. It was a lot more trouble than it was worth.”

The National Enquirer claims Brad Pitt has put down the booze and picked up the FORK…it’s got his friends concerned.  He’s not taking good care of himself at all. They told him he needs to find other pleasures — and he’s finding them in the kitchen…

The List for Friday, July 11th 2025

Welcome to The List,

It’s been 40 years since Live Aid rocked the world—literally. Back on July 13, 1985, Wembley and JFK Stadiums tag-teamed a global concert watched by nearly 2 billion people. And now? CNN’s dropping a 4-part doc, and the UK is throwing it a full-blown birthday party. That’s right—Live Aid’s old enough to complain about back pain now!

-----

Ozzy Osbourne has officially hung up the bat wings. His last-ever concert—"Back to the Beginning"—went down July 5th in Birmingham with Black Sabbath and a parade of metal legends. It was epic, emotional, and charitable! When he sang “Mama I’m Coming Home,” even the devils in the mosh pit teared up.

-----

Jelly Roll clapped back HARD at people calling his wife a gold digger. He said, "She was a high-end escort when I met her—I was the broke one living in a van!" And honestly? The man married up! So maybe stop judging and start taking notes, huh?

-----

Parker McCollum was asked the most country thing he’s ever done… and buckle up: He said, “Rode a horse bareback. Naked. In Crocs.” I—what?! That is peak country chaos right there. And no, there are no plans for a repeat performance. His words, not mine.

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