The List for Wednesday, October 26th 2022

Welcome to The List,

The scariest horror movie villains of all time were calculated using the average number of kills and jump scares.  The top three are Michael Myers, the Werewolf from “An American Werewolf in London”, and the creature from “The Grudge”….So uncle George from Pennsylvania didn’t make the list again this year.  But you’ll see him for Thanksgiving.

The actors on “Avatar: The Way of Water”, worked with specialists to learn how to hold their breath for underwater scenes.  Zoe Saldana got to the point where she could hold hers for almost five minutes.  Sigourney Weaver did six and a half minutes . . . and Kate Winslet, always the overachiever, went SEVEN minutes without taking a breath…meanwhile Tom Cruise is over here like ‘Hold  my beer”…

Scotty McCreery’s wife Gabi gave birth to their first child on Monday.  It’s a boy named Merrick Avery McCreery.  Scotty posted pics and wrote, “Next to his mother, he is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.  Gabi was a total rock star during Avery’s birth.  I could not be more proud of her.”

The CMAs announced the first round of performers, and they include Luke Bryan, Carrie Underwood, Morgan Wallen, Miranda Lambert, Hardy, Carly Pearce, Jimmie Allen, Kelsea Ballerini, and Zac Brown Band. They also announced that the show will OPEN with a “star-studded” tribute to Loretta Lynn.  I’m sure you’ll see several of those performers take part in that.  “The 56th Annual CMA Awards” is airing November 9th on ABC.

Chase Bryant married model Selena Weber in a hilltop ceremony in Texas on Saturday.  The venue overlooked 30 miles of Texas Hill County.  For Selena’s walk down the aisle, they had a string quartet perform “Can’t Help Falling in Love” by Elvis Presley play.

He is about a two year old tabby who came to the ARL as a stray. He came in with an injury to his hip, but thankfully it was the serious and has fully healed. That's when the ARL staff realized Pierre is a cuddy bug who loves to snuggle. They believe he would be good with other cats too. Since Pierre is the KIX Critter his adoption fee is half off the regular price of $50, you can make him your couch buddy for $25.00!! More info

The List for Monday, March 30th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Tiger Woods is back in the headlines after flipping his Land Rover in Florida trying to pass a truck with a trailer. The vehicle ended up on its side, he crawled out like it was no big deal, and somehow nobody was hurt. He blew a 0.00 on a breathalyzer but refused a blood test and was charged with DUI and property damage. So yeah, that “no alcohol” part isn’t exactly calming anyone down.

-----

Keith Urban is dealing with some awkward rumors linking him to younger Nashville singers, and apparently his daughters are not loving the headlines. Sources say it’s a bad look no matter what, because either he comes off like a womanizer or a guy striking out. Meanwhile, the women involved are flat-out denying everything.

-----

Country legend Charlie Daniels is making a return in hologram form for America’s 250th birthday celebration. The show is set for Fort Campbell and will feature performances from Aaron Tippin and others, along with a digital version of Charlie headlining. His son says it’s a dream come true, which is sweet… but also a little “we’re living in the future now.”

-----

Michael Jordan says he still dreams about making an NBA comeback… in his 60s. He told CBS that competitive fire never really leaves, and he’d love to pick up a basketball again at that level. Which is adorable, because most of us dream about getting off the couch without making a noise.

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