The List for Wednesday, May 12th 2021

Welcome to The List,

CMT says Dierks Bentley offered some piloting advice after learning that Dustin Lynch has been taking flying lessons. He said, “Don’t get drunk on a plane unless you are sitting in the back, That would be advice number one. That’s important. Don’t be hungover either. That’s not a good way to go either. Sage advise….

 Trisha Yearwood talking about Garth says he pushes her to go beyond what she thinks she can do…he’s very close to being perfect…in fact he’s become a very important person in the kitchen. “Especially for spicing, for salt and pepper. I have to call on him to tell me if this tastes right. He’s always happy to do that.” Trisha knows what she’s doing in the kitchen but because of her bout with COVID her sense of taste and smell haven’t come back 100%

And for those of us waiting for the “Friends” reunion…it’s on it’s way Here’s what Courtney Cox said about the show. “It’s unscripted with lots of surprises and we all got to gather on stage 24 at Warner Brothers and that’s the first time we got to do that since the show ended. It was very emotional, and it was great.” HBO Max hasn’t yet announced a release date.

The Ellen DeGeneres Show is coming to an end. The daytime talk show has been at the center of controversy ever since former and current staffers alleged there was a toxic workplace environment on the show. In light of those allegations, WarnerMedia launched an investigation into these claims in which they spoke to former and current employees about their experiences. The show subsequently fired three top producers.  Ellen confirmed the end of her long-running talk show on today’s show, revealing how Season 19 — the show’s upcoming season — will be the last.

The List for Monday, April 6th 2026

Welcome to The List,

WKRP is finally becoming a real thing after 48 years, and radio people everywhere just felt a chill. The legendary sitcom made Cincinnati famous without even having a real station. Now the actual call letters are being sold, and someone’s bringing WKRP home. Somewhere, turkeys are nervous and DJs are smiling.

-----

Carrie Underwood says the secret to staying sane in fame is faith. She says the industry can make everything about you real fast. Faith keeps her grounded when everything else is trying to lift her too high. So basically, humility is her real number one hit.

-----

Zach Top says a bad round of golf can wreck his whole mood, which feels very relatable. Instead of throwing clubs, he writes songs about it like a classy human. Turns out his sadness already had a soundtrack, his own song “Between the Ditches.” Nothing like turning a bogey into a ballad.

-----

Britney Spears’ life is still headed to the big screen, even with recent drama swirling around her. Universal says they’re in it for the long haul and ready to tell the full story. Apparently, that includes love life chaos, music fame, and everything in between. Somewhere, Justin Timberlake is allegedly pacing and stress-eating popcorn.

The List for Friday, April 3rd 2026

Welcome to The List,

Taylor Swift’s wedding guest list is already causing drama, and we’re not even at the cake yet. Apparently, Kim Kardashian is a hard no after all that Kanye chaos. Sources say Taylor wants zero bad vibes on her big day. Which honestly makes sense, nobody wants awkward small talk at the open bar. Moral of the story, bring a gift… not baggage.

-----

Megan Moroney just proved pre-show routines don’t have to be all zen and candles. She says it’s loud, messy, and basically a backstage sleepover. Music blasting, friends everywhere, chaos level high. Because if it gets too serious, she starts overthinking everything. So yeah, sometimes the best prep is just controlled madness.

-----

Jo Dee Messina is leveling up her tour snacks. Gone are the soda and basic chicken, hello protein everything. We’re talking shakes, bars, Quest chips, hydration. And yes, still a glass of wine because balance matters. Fitness goals…

-----

Julia Roberts might be heading back to rom-com land, and fans are ready. She and Richard Gere have said no to Pretty Woman 2. But a fresh romantic comedy reunion is back on the table. Because sometimes you just need that classic chemistry again.
