President Biden signed an executive order yesterday on artificial intelligence . . . you know, to stop it from taking over the world and sending unkillable cyborgs back to our time to assassinate the mothers of future resistance leaders. But his inspiration was NOT “The Terminator”.  It was the new “Mission: Impossible” movie, “Dead Reckoning Part One”. Biden recently watched the movie, in which an A.I. program called The Entity gains sentience and goes rogue. Biden’s chief of staff Bruce Reed says, quote, “If he hadn’t already been concerned about what could go wrong with A.I. before that movie, he is now.”

CBS says Wynonna Judd will be a mega mentor on this season of ‘The Voice’. A source close to the show says, “Fans are excited to see Wynonna as part of the show. Her expertise and personality will make this season special.”

Jason Aldean tells Parade magazine that it’s important to be true to oneself even if it generates controversy. “I think anytime you’re trying to do something and make a statement, there’s always gonna be people that don’t agree with it, As long as you’re doing things for the right reasons, I think it’ll all work itself out in the ends”. I wonder if he was talking about anything specific….

The Sun says Britney Spears’ memoir may be turned into a TV series, a feature film, or a documentary.  The book covers her relationship with Justin Timberlake, her family troubles and her struggles with mental health. The memoir has been a huge success, prompting plans for a second book. It’s The Sun so take it with a grain of salt…

The List for Thursday, February 19th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Travis Kelce is out here setting expectations so high the rest of us are gonna get yelled at for bringing home gas station flowers. He’s reportedly spent $141,000 on pre-wedding gifts for Taylor Swift, including Rolex watches, designer jackets, and daily flower deliveries. Daily. Meanwhile, I forgot my anniversary once and tried to fix it with a breakfast burrito. Travis Kelce just ruined relationships for every man in America.

Lainey Wilson is teasing new music, and the title might be the most Lainey Wilson thing ever. The new single is called “Can’t Sit Still,” which tracks, because she’s been everywhere except my back yard party. She says her friends describe her as “a suitcase with legs,” which honestly sounds like Delta Airlines lost her twice already. No official release date yet, but she says it’s coming “real soon,” so prepare your playlists accordingly.

-----

Bunnie XO just revealed she thought Jelly Roll was a jerk when they first met, which proves once again women love a fixer-upper. She said he had “teddy bear with teeth energy” and sad eyes, and she basically looked at him like a home improvement project from HGTV. Fast forward to now, they’re one of Country music’s biggest power couples. Moral of the story, sometimes the guy who ignores you becomes your husband.

-----

The new Mummy reboot is ditching the Tom Cruise action vibe and going straight for emotional damage. This one’s from the director of Evil Dead Rise, so instead of running from explosions, you’ll be running from your own nightmares. It’s about a girl who disappears and comes back after spending quality time inside a 3,000-year-old coffin. It hits theaters April 17th, and I’ll be watching it from the safety of daylight and denial.

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