Welcome to The List,
Things are heating up between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt regarding their French winery…She filed new court papers against Brad Pitt’s claim that he built their French winery business. Angelina says he is an actor, not a winemaker, and that he deals in illusions, the Academy Award winner said…not dirt and grapes….

The media is really invested in the box office battle between “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer”, which both open on July 21st. Even though they don’t seem like they’d have any audience crossover at all. But maybe that’s not the case. AMC Theaters says that around 20,000 people who belong to their Stubs rewards program have already bought tickets to see both movies ON THE SAME DAY.

When Lainey Wilson performed on “American Idol” in May it was kind of a homecoming. Strike that. Let’s call it “returning to the scene of the crime”. The crime is how many times “Idol” rejected her in the past. She talked about it in an interview BEFORE the May appearance where we learned she got rejected SEVEN times!! Never got past the first round…and “The Voice” didn’t work out either.

Welcome to The List,
Luke Combs just committed the ultimate sports betrayal…he wore a Jacksonville Jaguars hat. Panthers fans immediately grabbed their pitchforks and pumpkin spice lattes and accused him of treason. One fan called him fake. Luke fired back saying, yeah, maybe he should have worn Panthers gear while playing in the Jaguars stadium…his bad. This man gave us “Beer Never Broke My Heart,” not “I Pledge Allegiance to Your Fantasy Football Team.”

Miranda Lambert kicked off the Daytona 500 in front of more than 100,000 screaming NASCAR fans. She admitted the massive crowd made her nervous, which is relatable, because the only thing scarier than that many people is that many people who drove there aggressively. She said it already felt like a concert thanks to the tailgating.

Hollywood officially ran out of ideas sometime around 2007, and now Charlie’s Angels is getting rebooted…again. Sony is already working on it, with the Crazy Rich Asians writer attached, and Drew Barrymore possibly involved behind the scenes. So yes, prepare for dramatic slow-motion walking, explosions that defy physics, and a plot nobody remembers. That’s Hollywood innovation….rebooting a reboot of a reboot of a reboot.

If you were waiting for The Simpsons to end, I have terrible news…you’ll be waiting forever. The showrunner says it will never have a real finale because the characters live in permanent cartoon Groundhog Day. They already did a fake ending just to mess with us. At this point, three things will survive the apocalypse: cockroaches, Twinkies, and Homer Simpson.
Get details on these stories at 4:20 this afternoon on The List, with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
