Elvie Shane On His New Song, ‘My Boy’ … ” “My Boy” is a song about my son and our relationship.

We appreciate you!”…You can find Elvie Shane’s ‘My Boy” on his EP Country Roads

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani had around 40 friends and family members in attendance when they got married at Shelton’s Oklahoma ranch last month, which means that some of the pair’s famous friends were left off the guest list. Speaking to SiriusXM‘s Storme Warren last week, Shelton revealed that he’s had “awkward” conversations with friends who weren’t even aware that the wedding was happening….they had the best honey moon…going NOWHERE…they just stayed in Oaklahoma – Gwen Stefani was recently spotted out in Los Angeles wearing Vans sneakers with Blake Shelton’s face on the top of them.

Team USA Swimmer Caeleb Dressel..won five gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics. He talks about being happy, and his thoughts on being a top athlete then  Today show’s Craig Melvin asked an important question..”Yes, I’m happy, it was really fun competing.  This is the pinnacle of our sport, to be able to do that on a world stage, with the rings in the background and the world watching.

Melvin – “Can you humbly accept being called the best in the world now.”

Dressel – “No, because the moment you do that, the moment you let complacency sneak in you get passed.”

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
