Welcome to The List,
You might remember back in June, when John Cena set a record with the Make-A-Wish Foundation for fulfilling 650 wishes. Maybe not but he did!! Well, he’s now being recognized by the Guinness World Records. John is now listed under “Most Wishes Granted Through the Make-A-Wish Foundation”. No one else has even fulfilled more than 200 wishes. Back when he hit the 500 wish mark, John said, quote, “I just drop everything. If I can offer a fantastic experience, I’ll be first in line to do my part.”

Darth Vader has retired….well, his actor that does the voice…has…James Earl Jones has been the voice of Vader since the original movie back in 1977, but he’s 91 years old now, and he just officially retired. He did, however, give Lucasfilm and Disney the right to digitally recreate his voice going forward, so the character can live on.

A new horror movie is coming out this week, it’s called ‘Smile’ and the studio found a creative way to let people know about it … sending background actors to live baseball games, front and center. In all of them, there was at least one person positioned behind home plate that held a super creepy smile the entire time. We’ll take a closer look at ‘Smile’ Thursday with ‘At the Movies’ during the Drive at Five.

We end on some sage advice Jackson Dean got from Clay Walker who actually got from George Strait….. “He says, ‘No matter what, you have to put this first, cause if you don’t, your family doesn’t eat. Whatever you have to do to keep yourself running, do it. Whoever has to go, whoever has to step in, make it happen. And just make sure that you keep your [stuff] straight,’ is what he said to me.”
