The List for Tuesday September 29th 2020

Welcome to The List –

Thomas Rhett think’s he’s found a silver lining in the pandemic “Honestly, it’s just been such a blessing in disguise, this whole year. I would say the first 30, 40 days into quarantine I was kinda losing my mind, going, ‘I need to play a show. I need to write a song. I need to do something.’ And then one day my wife looked at me and she said, ‘Honey, you’re not gonna play a show this year. You just need to let it be and relax and be with our family.

Blake Shelton tells Ellen he’s excited about the upcoming season of ‘The Voice.’ But, they had to change a few things due to the coronavirus. “Our chairs are already pretty far apart, but they made them a little bit further apart now. To be honest It made it a little easier I think to concentrate. Our insults cut a little deeper because we hear exactly everything the other person was sayin’…somehow that thing worked out.” Blake was on tour when the coronavirus shut him down. ‘The Voice’ Season 19 will have Gwen, Kelly, John and Blake premieres October 19th on NBC.

Rainn Wilson you might remember him if you’re a fan of ‘The Office” tells Kelly And Ryan about his new Amazon Prime series, “Utopia” He plays a scientist who researches a pandemic that came from bats….sound familiar? “I describe it as Stranger Things meets Quentin Tarantino, it’s a really fun wild romp.” “Utopia” is streaming now on Amazon Prime Video.

Screen Rant says The Rock almost starred in the James Bond movie ”Spectre.” He was going to play a henchman named Mr. Hinx, kinda like Goldfingers OddJob?  MGM said The Rock was too expensive and they couldn’t find a hat sharp enough so, instead, cast fellow wrestler Bautista.

Jimmy Fallon says last night was a big night for hockey fans. “If you just watched game six of the Stanley Cup playoffs, that mean you’re either drunk and happy or drunk and very angry. I actually watched the game through my plastic face shield so I could feel like I was really there.” The Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Dallas Stars to capture the Stanley Cup!!

The List for Thursday, March 19th 2026

Welcome to The List…

Hollywood’s biggest fear is officially here. Dead actors… still booking roles. A new movie is using A.I. to bring Val Kilmer back. Yeah. From the grave… straight to the premiere. The director says Val wanted this. His family signed off too. Which is great… until your Netflix suggestions start haunting you. Somewhere an Oscar just felt uncomfortable.

-----

Tom Brady says he wears a disguise to his kids’ games. Not kidding. Hoodie. Hat. Full undercover quarterback mode. Apparently the kids don’t want attention on them because… you know… their dad is TOM BRADY. Imagine trying to sneak into a gym when you’re built like a superhero statue. Sir… we still know it’s you.

-----

Rumor is Keith Urban might be going through a midlife crisis after the split. Sources say he wants to live the single life again. Totally different person now. Which honestly just sounds like every guy who suddenly discovers energy drinks and fitted jeans. Next step is obvious. Corvette. New Balance. Bluetooth headset.

-----

Kenny Chesney just launched his own record label. Big move. Real boss energy. It’s named after his boat… because of course it is. And the first artist he signed…drumroll… Kenny Chesney. Man skipped the middleman and hired himself. HR meeting must be real smooth.

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