The List for Wednesday, July 14th 2021

Welcome to The List,

Miranda Lambert’s new son ‘Settling Down’ is climbing the charts but what inspired the song?  She says LIFE did…” um, I got married, but I also still love the road, I have a gypsy soul, and I wanted to write a song that kind of spoke to the sentiment of “can you have both?” and is that okay? I think the video just compliments the lyrics.”

Brad Paisley’s meets shark week in ‘Shark Country’ on Discovery channel last night…HE and comedian JB Smoove met in the Bahamas to attract new fans: sharks. With the help of Dr. Austin Gallagher, Brad’s musical talents are put to the test in shark-infested waters to see how sound can attract or repel sharks. JB Smoove was a little confused about what was about to happen

Brad – “We’re gonna go swim with sharks today,

JB – What!?  So, wait a minute we’re going out to Mark Cubans Yacht to pre pitch these ideas?

Brad – No….

JB – Somehow Brad something got mixed up here…

The List for Monday, March 23rd 2026

Welcome to The List,

Keith Urban is officially boarding the yacht rock cruise. The country star says a full covers album is coming. It will feature classic yacht rock songs and only one original track. He even teased fans with a smooth cover of Stephen Bishop’s “On and On.” No release date yet. But apparently Keith brought boat shoes.

-----

ABC may be ready to dump The Bachelorette for good. Insiders claim executives now call the franchise “toxic.” Critics say the show stopped being about love and started chasing messy drama. Ratings have been sliding for years. The big question inside ABC now is simple. Is it finally time to pull the plug.

-----

Travis Kelce is apparently running an investigation. Someone has been leaking details about his wedding plans with Taylor Swift. Sources say Travis is trying to figure out who is talking. He is also trying to keep Taylor calm about the chaos. Because nothing says romance like a celebrity leak hunt.

-----

Luke Combs just turned Las Vegas into a country concert record book. His show at Allegiant Stadium pulled in 70,921 fans. That breaks the stadium record previously set by a massive boxing match. Country music just beat prize fighting in Vegas. Luke Combs basically threw the knockout punch.

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