The List for Tuesday, March 21st 2023

Welcome to The List,

Amanda Bynes is on a psychiatric hold after calling 9-1-1 on herself while walking the streets of L.A. naked.  She also dropped out of last weekend’s ’90s Con due to an unspecified illness.  According to an eyewitness, The ‘Easy A’ actress waved a car down and told them she was coming down from a psychotic episode.  Then she called 9-1-1 on herself. Luckily, she’s not hurt and she’s currently hospitalized receiving care.

Someone took a load off in the aisle next to Hillary and Chelsea Clinton last week at a performance of “Some Like It Hot” on Broadway.. I’m not saying they kicked off their shoes and got comfy.  So, either someone is LITERALLY pooing in the aisle or they’re dumping poo they smuggled into the theater. A source said this is the fourth time it’s happened. That’s just unreal…that someone went back to see “Some Like It Hot” four times like that…

Luke Combs and his wife Nicole are expecting another child.  It’s a boy, and he’s due in September.  Their son Tex will be turning one in June.  Saw the announcement last night on social media…they are officially part of the 2 under 2 club he says…Congratulations…

Keanu Reeves’ John Wick : Chapter 4′ …is in theaters this weekend and here he talks about the training he does for the ‘John Wick’ movies. “I’ve had the chance to train, now for four films so it’s like I’ve been basically doin a year of my life practicing. Movie Judo and movie Jiu Jitsu, weapon manipulation.  I’ve got a chance to be a little bit better at it just through experience with the teachers that I’ve had. That’s the fun and the great pleasure that I’ve had.” Keanu says he loves it when the director says ‘Action’. ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’ opens in theatres this weekend.

How different would life be if “Shazam!” star Zachary Levi got the part for Captain America? He tells the Happy Sad Confused podcast that he blew his audition for Captain America. Saying I look like Rogers pre-serum! Like, clearly they could help me work out and I could get big, but, wasn’t meant to be – I did not have that energy, Chris Evans had that energy.

Dame Helen Mirren — star of Taylor Sheridan’s latest Yellowstone prequel, 1923 — says she shops at a local Walmart while filming the series in Butte, Mont. During a visit to The Kelly Clarkson Show. She says “I know that Walmart very well, I know it like the back of my hand”.. maybe a trip to Butte Montana is in the future…maybe get a glimpse of Helen Mirren looking at big screen TV’s and dodging Girls Scouts trying to sell her cookies…Season two of 1923 my hit us sometime late this year or early 2024…

Aurora 5/20/25

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS AURORA!!

Aurora is a sweet, two-year-old cat who has been at the shelter since October 2023. She’s got a big personality and loves to chat—she’s a vocal girl and isn’t shy about sharing her thoughts! Whether you’re talking to her or just hanging out, she’s always happy to “talk back” and let you know how she’s feeling.

When she’s not having a conversation, Aurora is all about relaxing. She loves curling up in her comfy bed or soaking up the sun. She’s definitely a laid-back kitty who enjoys her peace and quiet, but she also likes to be close to her people when she’s in the mood for attention.

Aurora is a bit selective about her feline friends. She’s okay with other cats as long as they’re not too in-your-face. If they respect her space, she’s happy to coexist with them.

Aurora is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, FeLV/FIV tested, and microchipped to ensure her safety.

She’s ready to find a home where she can relax in a sunny spot, enjoy some quiet time, and chat with her humans whenever the mood strikes. If you’re looking for a sweet, vocal kitty who enjoys a peaceful life, Aurora might just be the one for you! HER ADOPTION FEE IS ONLY $25.00!!! BECAUSE SHE IS OUR KIX CRITTER!!

The List for Monday, May 19th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Tom Bergeron is back, But not on the ballroom floor—he’s hosting Dancing with Sharks for Shark Week. Yes, real sharks. Yes, real dancing. No, this is not a fever dream. Expert divers will waltz underwater with actual sharks thanks to a world-class underwater choreographer. So basically… “So You Think You Can Swim.”

-----

Morgan Wallen Dropped a 37-Song Album on Friday. It’s called I’m the Problem, which honestly sounds like a therapy breakthrough. It’s a double album, it’s country, it’s rap, it’s…controversial. Especially the rap cover of a Keith Whitley song—because nothing says “classic country” like autotune and a trap beat. Swifties are still mad. So, mission accomplished?

-----

Sharpen your stakes and crank up the angst—the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" reboot is happening, and they've found a new young slayer to team up with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Yep, Buffy’s back, and apparently she’s mentoring now, which means this girl’s about to get a crash course in slaying and sarcasm. The Hellmouth won’t know what hit it... but probably still ends in a dramatic slow-motion fight scene.

----

So here’s something straight out of a murder ballad—human remains were found near Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island mansion. Yeah. Real ones. Police say no foul play is suspected, and Swift’s team hasn’t commented. So either it’s a tragic coincidence… or the Cruel Summer just got way darker. Either way, cue the eerie piano music.

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