My Radio Link says Thomas Rhett is launching his own line of sandals. They will cost $110 and come in two patterns. Garth Brooks performed on the campus of LSU on Saturday. The crowd went wild when he sang ”Callin Baton Rouge”. The roar was so loud that a seismograph recorded a small earthquake. The power of country music shakes the earth…

Jordan Davis got drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday.  Yes, football fans know I’m talking about Georgia defensive tackle Jordan Davis who went in Round One to the Eagles.

The List for Tuesday, November 4th 2025

Welcome to The List,

So apparently someone doesn’t like being looked at while dating a superstar NFL tight end. Taylor Swift reportedly dropped TWO million bucks on extra security so she can blend in at Travis Kelce’s games. Girl, you are literally Taylor Swift. Center of attention is kind of the job. Between the two of them, they’re spending eight million a year on security. She’s basically a small nation at this point.

-----

Lainey Wilson proved she’s queen of the yee-haw prank. At the end of her tour, she called her openers Muscadine Bloodline on stage for their normal sweet acoustic moment. But surprise. Their stools were swapped out with two classy… toilet seats. Nothing says “good show, boys” like resting your cheeks where strangers have gone before. Country comedy gold.

-----

Rumor mill alert. The Globe claims Keith Urban is not taking the Nicole Kidman split well. Sources say he’s exhausted, lonely, and struggling without her. They’re acting like he’s five minutes from writing breakup ballads in sweatpants, clutching a pint of ice cream. Apparently folks worry he’s emotionally fragile. Hopefully he finds peace, love, or at least a good therapist.

-----

Jonathan Bailey has officially been crowned People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive. If you don’t know the name, you definitely know the face. He’s Lord Anthony in Bridgerton, he’s in the Wicked movies, and popped up in Jurassic World. The internet is already swooning. Somewhere, Chris Evans is polishing his trophy like… “remember me?”

Laila 1/4/2025

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK, IS LAILA

Laila is an adorable 1-year-old Pit Bull mix who came in as a stray. When she arrived, she was wearing a collar with a piece of tape on it — the only clue to her name. Beyond that, her past is a mystery, but excited to help her build a bright future.

Laila is full of love and energy! She adores people and is eager to please, but like many young dogs, she’ll need a home that can give her guidance, structure, and training to help her grow into her best self. She seems interested in other dogs, though still getting to know how she does with new friends, as well as kids and cats.

Since she came in with little background information, it may take some time for her true personality to shine as she adjusts to shelter life, but with patience and consistency, Laila will make a wonderful companion.

Her $75.00 (since she is the KIX CRITTER) adoption fee includes her spay, vaccines, microchip, and health testing — everything she needs to get started in her new home. Find out more ARL Marshalltown

If you’re looking for a young, enthusiastic dog to join your family and you’re ready to put in the time and love she deserves, Laila might be the perfect fit!
