The List for Tuesday August 25th 2020

Welcome to The List –

Thomas Rhett says writing songs for him…is really all about honesty and is a songwriter’s key to his success … “Especially as an artist, It’s tough to be vulnerable and to write songs about your life. When you put them out you go, ‘Does songs that I write, you’re really talking to a lot of the population. When you can put that into a song form that can evoke an emotion and bring people into that, I think that is songwriting 101 – to be unabashedly yourself and do things different, not because you’re just trying to be different because that’s actually who you are, I think that doesn’t go unnoticed.”

If Justin Moore could be better at something what would that be…writer, singer, bass boat fisherman…no…he says golfer…“ it’s funny, because now that I play worse I don’t get as upset. I’m just like, ‘Ehhh, whatever.’ I think I’ve lowered my expectations now. So, I don’t play near as well now but it’s almost more fun to me now.”

David Spade guest hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. David says that Jimmy does NOT have a feud with Matt Damon. Jimmy’s sidekick, Guillermo, is really Polish. and that the coronavirus can linger for a long time. “Scientist have found live Corona Virus up to sixteen feet away from a patient. They say Corona lingers so long, it’s still making jokes about Tiger King….”

Variety magazine says Hollywood producers are planning to reboot “The Nutty Professor” again. The original 1963 movie starred Jerry Lewis before Eddie Murphy remade it in 1996. No word on who is going to play Murphy’s character, Buddy Love ..why? we don’t know…maybe boredom…maybe to many late night binge watching comedy movies….
