The List for Wednesday, July 21, 2021

Welcome to The List,

As Thomas Rhett says in his song, ‘It feels good to be country again’ it sure has been a long road for him. “It doesn’t feel like that long ago, yet at the same time it feels like a century ago that I felt like I was in college just trying to figure it out. Today he feels more centered, loves to be outside, or fishing or sitting by a fire on a back porch.

 Cole Swindell says his one-time duet partner, Dierks Bentley, has always been one of his idols and credits HIM with the idea of writing his own songs.  When Cole was singing covers in college he realized he needed to make other people feel that way and write his own stuff…

US Weekly Magazine claims Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez may do another rom-com together ..please no…anyone remember ‘Gigli”…..Hoda Kotb of The Today Show. Asked if there was going to be a return of ‘Bennifer’ JLo responded, “I am happy. I’m always happy when you see me, Hoda … you can call me. You have my number.”

 Comedian Gabriel Iglesias Hasn’t Gotten To Meet His “Space Jam” Co-Star, LeBron James … Gabriel plays Speedy Gonzales in “Space Jam: A New Legacy.” ‘I’m hoping that’s gonna happen sooner than later, I missed the red carpet that happened at Magic Mountain. So, the first chance I get I’m going to tell LeBron who Speedy was if he doesn’t already know.”“Space Jam: A New Legacy” is in theaters and streaming on HBO Max now.

You can catch The List, weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1

The List for Thursday, July 31st 2025

Welcome to The List,

Football is right around the corner so… warm up those nachos because Carrie Underwood is back belting “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” for lucky year thirteen. The new version kicks off September 7th when the Ravens tackle the Bills. Clear your throat, stretch your chips, and prepare to scream-sing along like it’s national cardio.

-----

Ozzy Osbourne just flipped the script on funerals no sobbing backstabbers, just a full-throttle rock-n-roll revenge party. Marching band blasting “Crazy Train” through Birmingham, dark jokes louder than the hearse, and a firm “no fake tears” sign for anyone who crossed Sharon. Even Elton John showed up, probably wearing earplugs.

-----

Miranda Lambert just clapped back at the internet gawking at her caboose. She posted a slow-mo strut video labeled, “Warned y’all ’bout my backyard swagger since 2014.” Basically saying: the view’s been scenic for a decade, folks kindly catch up, adjust your binoculars, and remember manners before ogling country royalty.

-----

Tim McGraw just went full cue-ball chic buzzed off the cowboy locks and rolled out a sharp gray goatee. The Country Wire’s photos prove it: he’s serving “silver-fox bouncer at a honky-tonk spa.” Saddle up, shampoo budget; Tim’s new look could cut wind resistance and maybe your heart rate.

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