Welcome to The List,
Morgan Wallen just dropped the tracklist for his new album I'm the Problem—and surprise! He wrote 22 of the 37 songs. Yup, thirty-seven. Man’s working harder than a coffee machine on Monday! He’s got his first-ever collab with a woman—Tate McRae—and some familiar voices like Post Malone, Eric Church, Hardy, and Ernest. It’s already breaking records before it's out May 16th, and his tour kicks off June 20th in Houston. This thing’s about to explode like a beer can in a bonfire!

Aaron Rodgers says football’s not the only drama in his playbook—he’s got personal issues stealing the spotlight. On The Pat McAfee Show, he spilled that life’s been “interesting” since the Jets said buh-bye in February. These days, he’s lifting weights, soul-searching, and spooning with his dog, Apollo. As for retirement? He’s not ruling it out, saying, “I’m open to anything, attached to nothing.” Translation: he might throw one more pass... or start doing yoga in the woods with Shailene again.

The Daily Mail says Johnny Depp might be swash bucklin’ his way back into that eyeliner and rum breath as Captain Jack Sparrow in a brand-new Pirates of the Caribbean flick! Disney’s reportedly close to sealing the deal—yeah, even with all the past drama. Word is, the script’s done and this is a full-on reboot. Translation? More Jack. More chaos. And probably way more guyliner.

Brooks & Dunn will be honored the night before the 60th ACM Awards during the "Play Something Country" gala. Eric Church . . . Cody Johnson . . . Megan Moroney . . . Keith Urban . . . and Lainey Wilson will all be on-hand performing renditions of Brooks & Dunn's biggest hits.
