The List for Friday, August 30th 2024

Welcome to The List,

The ‘Friends’ cast is determined to safeguard Matthew Perry’s legacy. The cast is deeply saddened and outraged by the exploitation of the late star. They plan to come together to create a special program honoring Perry’s life and positive impact.

A fun note…Sigourney Weaver told James Cameron she didn’t want to pick up a gun for “Aliens” because she’s “for gun control”.  But she changed her mind when he made her fire machine guns and she found them “unfortunately very addictive.”

—–

Some of the best moments from “Toby Keith: American Icon” were:  Listening to Toby sing “Ships That Don’t Come In”, it was the last vocal recording of his life . . . and Toby’s daughter Krystal Keith honoring her dad by singing “Don’t Let the Old Man In”.

—–

The new “Jurassic World” movie will be called “Jurassic World Rebirth”.  It doesn’t come out until next July, but some pictures were released yesterday.

The List for Tuesday, April 22nd 2025

Welcome to The List,

Eric Church ain’t just strumming guitars—he’s breaking ground! His nonprofit just kicked off their first housing project ever in North Carolina, and he's calling it a “lifeline.” Basically: Eric’s out here building more than just houses—he’s laying down heart and soul, hammer in hand. Move over HGTV, Church is coming in hot!

-----

Ella Langley just showed up and chose violence—with eight ACM noms to her name! Right behind her? Cody Johnson, Morgan Wallen, and Lainey Wilson with seven each. Oh, and Reba’s hosting, so you know we’re gettin’ sass, sparkle, and possibly a rhinestone mic drop. May 8 on Prime Video—yeehaw, y’all!

-----

Chris Rock is not laughing—again. Word is, he’s ticked at Will Smith for milking that Oscars slap in his new music. Chris says Will’s still “arrogant and self-serving.” Honestly? Hard agree. Will’s trying to rebrand like we forgot—but we remember, sir. We remember.

----

Ryan Coogler is on fire right now—his horror-musical Sinners just crushed the box office, and next up? A reboot of The X-Files! He says it’s “immediately next” on his to-do list and yes—he’s already talked to the iconic Gillian Anderson. Quote: “She’s incredible. Fingers crossed.” He promises it’ll be “really friggin’ scary” and made “for the real X-Files fans—and maybe some new ones.

Peg 4/22/2025

Our KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS PEG!! She described as the "The Goodest Dog on the ARL website!

Peg is a 1-year-old lab mix with a heart full of energy and legs made of springs—she can jump as high as 6 feet! This lively girl is looking for an active family that can keep up with her adventurous spirit. She’s always ready to play and explore, making her the perfect companion for outdoor activities.

Peg is dog-friendly, so if you have a dog at home, a meet-and-greet will be required to make sure they’re a good match.

Peg is a bit cautious around men, especially those wearing hats or hoodies, she’s a sweet and loving dog who will warm up with time and patience.

Her adoption fee of just $75, because she is our KIX Critter of the Week,  covers her spay, vaccines, microchip, and heartworm test. If you’re looking for a high-energy, fun-loving companion who will bring joy and excitement into your home, Peg might just be the perfect fit for you!
