The List for Friday, April 29th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Last year when Morgan Wallen got into some hot water and was ‘cancelled’ Jason Aldean stepped in to help his friend. Saying “Where I’m from, when you got a friend that’s down, you help them get back on their feet and teach ’em, and try to help them be better. He does think Morgan’s punishment was “a little excessive” . . . but at the same time he learned from it, and that’s always good.

The anticipated Walking Dead Spin-off that focuses on Daryl and Carol will happen…but not with Carol….It’s going to film in Europe, and unfortunately Melisa McBride can’t commit to the move just yet. The show is expected to carry on with just Norman Reedus as Daryl, but there’s no word if a  different  “Walking Dead” character will take Melissa’s place.  On the bright side, it sounds like we haven’t seen the last of her.

Maren Morris tells CMT that she loves to listen to music while cooking. “She’ll put on some music while cooking and just get lost in it. There have been times where I’ve almost burned things because I was so caught up in what I was listening to Be listening this Sunday when Maren Morris’s husband Ryan Hurd joins John Ritter Sunday on ‘Rise Up’ at 7am…

Andrew Garfield is taking a break from acting to rest and recalibrate.  He wants to be a “bit ordinary” for a while and take time to consider what he does next. Andrew says he’s tired from awards season. Yeah, all that hanging out with young starlets and latenight parties could wear ya out. I wonder…is ‘ordinary’ brooding all day and watching Netflix?

Coco and Leila 4/1/2025

Our KIX Critters of the week are two cats who have found they like to hang around each other. Coco and Leila.

Leila is a  sweet and playful cat who loves to spend her time chasing her favorite mice toys and snuggling up in her cozy bed. She enjoys having space to roam around and explore, but her favorite moments are when she gets some chin scratches – they’re sure to make her purr! She’s not too fond of being picked up, but Leila is a friendly, affectionate girl who loves attention and will happily hang out with you once she feels comfortable.

Coco

Coco is a sweet and playful 2-year-old cat She enjoys spending her time with her favorite scratchers and cat trees, and she’ll appreciate a cozy perch to call her own!

While she’s cat-friendly, Coco can be a bit selective with her feline friends, so she’ll do best in a home with either no other cats or with other laid-back cats. She’s also good with children, but she thrives in a calm, adult environment where she can relax and build trust. Coco loves to play, especially with balls, and she’ll entertain herself for hours. When it comes to affection, she has a special way of showing her love—giving sweet little “love nibbles” and gentle licks. Her soft meow will melt your heart every time.

Our KIX Critters are two for one!! total adoption fee $50!! that includes everything including the microchip. Find out more

The List for Monday, March 31st 2025

Welcome to The List,

Will Smith is back — THIS time, dropping beats instead of slaps! His new album, ‘Based on a True Story’, kicks off with the track "Int. Barbershop — Day," where he declares: "Will Smith is canceled." Then he hints it's because of his skin color… which is an interesting take, considering, well… 2022 Oscars, anyone? Maybe the cancellation had a little more… punch to it.

Morgan Wallen Pulls a Houdini on SNL—Poof, He's Gone! Morgan Wallen caused a stir by making an early exit from Saturday Night Live.
