The List for Wednesday, March 2nd 2022

Welcome to The List,

So, is it true that Kane Brown working at Lowe’s used to sing at work? “Yes I got to ah, it’s kinda were my music career started. I used to sing in the halls and the aisles. All of my co-workers used to tell me to sing louder, and I remember always being around that was my family.”

The Drinks Business website says rapper 50 Cent recently attended a wine auction and dinner in Houston. He wore a black cowboy hat and purchased a $125,000 bottle of wine. After buying the 2017 Hye Meadow Winery Boooom Red, he tweeted,  “You’re a nobody till you win a bid at the wine auction. Now I have a bottle of wine that costs more than a Rolls Royce.”  And the world rolls there eyes…

Miranda Lambert tells EW.com that the pandemic was hard for her. “The first six months of 2020, I didn’t write anything. I didn’t do anything. I painted and cooked. Like everyone else, I ate too much and tried out all the wine and found all the places we had it hidden.

MovieWeb says Chris Hemsworth is going to play a villain in the next Mad Max movie, ‘Mad Max Furiosa’. He says, ”Pretty damn fired up to be a part of a franchise that meant the world to me as a kid growing up in Australia. I’ll do my best to continue the tradition of cinematic badassery.”

A career search website called Zippia.com posted a list of each state’s most famous movie star. Some of those choices were questionable to say the least. For example, for Arkansas.  They chose:  Wes Bentley.  They could have chosen:  Mary Steenburgen or Billy Bob Thornton. Missouri.  They chose:  Evan Peters from “American Horror Story”.  They could have chosen:  John Goodman, Don Cheadle, Dick Van Dyke, Jon Hamm, Don Johnson, and for Iowa it HAD to be Ashton Kutcher

 Whiskey Riff reports that CODY JOHNSON sold out his Opening Night appearance at the Houston Livestock and Rodeo Show.  He’s only the third performer to ever do that.  The other two are Garth Brooks and George Strait.  Cody will be at the Xtream Arena in Coralville Friday March 18th

The List for Thursday, March 26th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Hookup shows come and go. Paychecks apparently stay forever. Taylor Frankie Paul will still get her full Bachelorette salary. TMZ says the payday lands in the low to mid six figures. The season got shelved after that viral domestic violence video resurfaced. Reality TV motto. Love fades. Direct deposit survives.

-----

Some guys jog. Some guys apparently brawl with neighbors. “Reacher” star Alan Ritchson reportedly got into a physical altercation. Sources say intense behavior is kind of his brand at this point. He doesn’t think he crossed a line. Neither does the authorities,

-----

Country star meets horsepower. This feels aggressively on brand. Darius Rucker is now a NASCAR Cup Series team owner. He invested in Legacy Motor Club which competes at the top level. From singing about wagons to literally owning fast cars. That is what we call career acceleration.

-----

If you like free music. Nashville just planned your summer. CMA Fest announced around 150 artists for daytime stages. Names include Ernest, Melissa Etheridge, Tucker Wetmore, more. The free shows run June fourth through seventh downtown. Wallet stays full. Voice will absolutely not.

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