The List for Tuesday April 28th 2020

Thomas Rhett Says The World Needs To Hear “Be A Light” Right Now … “I’ve been wanting to release ‘Be A Light’ since the day that I wrote it, and when all this stuff happened – I mean from the tornado’s in Nashville now to the COVID-19 coronavirus – 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. And then when I had asked some of my buddies to get on the song, it was an immediate yes, which was so cool – Reba, Keith Urban, Chris Tomlin and Hillary Scott from Lady Antebellum. And when they jumped on the song, man, it just took it to a whole different level, and I am so proud of this song and really hope that this song can be an encouragement to people who are really going through a tough time right now.”

The List for Thursday, July 31st 2025

Welcome to The List,

Football is right around the corner so… warm up those nachos because Carrie Underwood is back belting “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” for lucky year thirteen. The new version kicks off September 7th when the Ravens tackle the Bills. Clear your throat, stretch your chips, and prepare to scream-sing along like it’s national cardio.

-----

Ozzy Osbourne just flipped the script on funerals no sobbing backstabbers, just a full-throttle rock-n-roll revenge party. Marching band blasting “Crazy Train” through Birmingham, dark jokes louder than the hearse, and a firm “no fake tears” sign for anyone who crossed Sharon. Even Elton John showed up, probably wearing earplugs.

-----

Miranda Lambert just clapped back at the internet gawking at her caboose. She posted a slow-mo strut video labeled, “Warned y’all ’bout my backyard swagger since 2014.” Basically saying: the view’s been scenic for a decade, folks kindly catch up, adjust your binoculars, and remember manners before ogling country royalty.

-----

Tim McGraw just went full cue-ball chic buzzed off the cowboy locks and rolled out a sharp gray goatee. The Country Wire’s photos prove it: he’s serving “silver-fox bouncer at a honky-tonk spa.” Saddle up, shampoo budget; Tim’s new look could cut wind resistance and maybe your heart rate.

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