The List for Wednesday, February 9th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Today is National Pizza Day!!! Darius Rucker remembers when he used to mop floors and make pizza … he says: “I was fifteen, and I worked at a pizza place, and the guy decided that at fifteen, that I could not only clean the floors and wash the dishes, but I also had to make pizza. So, for two months, he taught me how to make pizza” I wonder if he still makes pizza at home…for the kids…and then cleans up…you know..old habits  and all.

Variety magazine says production costs for ”Mission Impossible 7” have soared past $290 million. That’s $100 million more than ”Mission Impossible: Fallout” cost to produce in 2018. They’re blaming the larger cost on the Coronavirus and not so much Tom Cruises antics. After a couple delays Mission Impossible 7 is set for release September of THIS year.

Valentines Day has changed so much, especially if you’re married with kids…it used to be a nice dinner, a glass of wine, watch a movie but Thomas Rhett in HIS house says being “romantic” is very different. “Me being romantic is really just helping, if that makes any sense. Like, if something is out of place, put it up. If the kids need to go take a nap, I make lunches in the morning before the kids get up to go to school, and all that kind of stuff. And so, when I’m off the road, being super present with my kids has turned into the new romanticism.”

It shows Kim in a blue gown holding a cross…creepy….

The List for Thursday, February 5th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Rumors are flying that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have allegedly set a wedding date. A so-called source says the planning is “military-level precise,” which tracks, because Taylor hates surprises and Travis runs NFL playbooks for a living. Pop music, professional football, and Hollywood elite all in one room. Locked down, protected, unforgettable. Basically the most intense group project ever attempted.

-----

Former Bachelor host Chris Harrison is launching a new dating show for people who want a “traditional, marriage-minded partnership built on commitment and shared values.” Which apparently is now considered edgy programming. Somewhere, reality TV just gasped. This is not roses and drama. This is compatibility and emotional maturity.

-----

Before Luke Combs made it big, he had $200 left in his bank account. That money went toward mastering one song, “Hurricane.” He releases it, sells about 10,000 copies the first week, and uses the cash to finish the rest of the album. Then pitches it to labels. And that, kids, is how you bet on yourself and win.

-----

Toby Keith, Kenny Rogers, and Ed Harris are being inducted into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. The ceremony happens in April in Oklahoma City. They’re joining legends like George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, Kurt Russell, and Burt Reynolds. That is a hall with serious swagger. Cowboy hats optional. Legends required.

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