85 year-old Jane Fonda was recently doing an interview with the ‘Absolutely Not’ podcast when she allegedly said she will not date any men older than 20. She prefers younger partners because she doesn’t like “old skin.” Some Internet users wished her luck while others mocked her and said she will remain single for the rest of her life.

Miranda Lambert posted a bunch of pics from her big 40th birthday party at Billy Bob’s honky-tonk in Fort Worth last month.  Ashley Monroe, Dierks Bentley, Lainey Wilson and many others came out for it.  Miranda said it took her three weeks to post the photos, because there were so many to sift through.  She started posted them in bunches yesterday.  (Here’s Part 1Part 2Part 3, and Part 4.)

It’s going to get harder for Tiger Woods to find a date…Thirsty for News says Tiger is now considered a “bad apple” by women after his messy breakup with Erica Herman. Women see him as trouble and are avoiding him. A source says, Tiger has this reputation as a total cheater, which he’ll never be able to shake. It’s not hard to see why women are avoiding him like the plague.“ OUCH!

Parker McCollum grew up in Conroe, Texas and he and all of his family and extended family would go to his grandmother’s house on Christmas. One of his favorite childhood memories on Christmas Day was playing football in the front yard.  His favorite Christmas gift as a kid? “It would be a Browning 270 Deer rifle I got when I was 13? So, I wanted it so bad, and I’d always had to use my older brothers’ or my Dad’s gun, you know? They wouldn’t even let me shoot anything then. So, I was probably 11 or 12 years old and a Browning 270 Deer rifle…bad son of a gun.” Man, he had cool parents….

The List for Thursday, February 19th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Travis Kelce is out here setting expectations so high the rest of us are gonna get yelled at for bringing home gas station flowers. He’s reportedly spent $141,000 on pre-wedding gifts for Taylor Swift, including Rolex watches, designer jackets, and daily flower deliveries. Daily. Meanwhile, I forgot my anniversary once and tried to fix it with a breakfast burrito. Travis Kelce just ruined relationships for every man in America.

Lainey Wilson is teasing new music, and the title might be the most Lainey Wilson thing ever. The new single is called “Can’t Sit Still,” which tracks, because she’s been everywhere except my back yard party. She says her friends describe her as “a suitcase with legs,” which honestly sounds like Delta Airlines lost her twice already. No official release date yet, but she says it’s coming “real soon,” so prepare your playlists accordingly.

-----

Bunnie XO just revealed she thought Jelly Roll was a jerk when they first met, which proves once again women love a fixer-upper. She said he had “teddy bear with teeth energy” and sad eyes, and she basically looked at him like a home improvement project from HGTV. Fast forward to now, they’re one of Country music’s biggest power couples. Moral of the story, sometimes the guy who ignores you becomes your husband.

-----

The new Mummy reboot is ditching the Tom Cruise action vibe and going straight for emotional damage. This one’s from the director of Evil Dead Rise, so instead of running from explosions, you’ll be running from your own nightmares. It’s about a girl who disappears and comes back after spending quality time inside a 3,000-year-old coffin. It hits theaters April 17th, and I’ll be watching it from the safety of daylight and denial.

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