Welcome to The List,
If you follow Walker Hayes on his socials, then you know he and his family are very active…and the DANCE moves? Well, it takes a lot of patients from his teacher…”Lela and I just did that for fun. She loves it, she loves to dance. She teaches me, she’s very patient with me, it takes me longer to learn them and she learns them so fast.” I think they’re up to three dances now. I’m still trying to learn the first one.

Seth MacFarlane talks to Kelly Clarkson about his upcoming television series based on his movie, ‘Ted’. I loved the movies, so what got him to do a TV show? “Well, it helped that the studio asked, it’s a prequel and takes place in 1993. So, we’re kinda digging back into the pop culture of that era.” Even though no premier date has been announced it looks like it will be picked up by the Peacock streaming network.

Carrie Underwood is doing a one-off next THURSDAY from the historic Bell Tower in Nashville. It’s to celebrate the release of her new album, “Denim & Rhinestones”, which drops the next day, on Friday. You can listen to the concert via Amazon Music on Twitch, the Amazon Music app, and Prime Video.

It’s National Donut Day – So happy hunting for the happiness that is a large, glazed object of goodness!!! Pop Culture magazine says ”Married … With Children” may be rebooted as a cartoon. None of the original cast would reprise their roles. Fox, Hulu and Peacock are reportedly interested in hearing more about the reboot.

This is the most excited you will EVER see Luke Bryan He shared a video of himself moments after catching an 11.6 pound bass. It’s his lifelong dream to catch a 10-pounder, so this probably ranks up there with the birth of his kids.

A change.org is at it again…..THIS time it’s a petition has been started to get Johnny Depp’s lawyer, Camille Vasquez, to replace Amber Heard in ”Aquaman 2”. The petition reads, “Although Amber is a ‘credible’ actor and has actually demonstrated it on many occasions, not just in films or ‘perhaps’ on the stand. If Camille is half the actor she is as a lawyer this will be an absolute blockbuster of a film.” Please someone stop this ride…I want off….

Welcome to The List,
Lainey Wilson and former NFL quarterback Devlin "Duck" Hodges were one of country music's most beloved couples of 2024, so it's only natural that fans are buzzing about whether they might be taking the next step and tying the knot sometime soon. Bunnie Xo is wondering, too. She confessed to Wilson that she's "manifesting" a wedding for her in 2025. Lainey has even offered to propose to HIM!!

It's not too unusual for Luke Combs to tease new music before releasing it, but this time, he's got one important question to go along with his unreleased demo. "Who should I duet this with?" he asked fans as he posted a clip of something that appears to be titled "More Less Than Perfect." Combs' new song is a love ballad with lyrics that appear to be directed at a person who fell in love with him, even though he thinks he doesn't deserve her attention.

Blake Lively has filed a lawsuit against her "It Ends with Us" co-star and director, Justin Baldoni, according to court docs…as well as the film’s production company, Wayfarer Studios. Lively filed a sexual harassment complaint against Baldoni with the California Civil Rights Department on Dec. 20. On Dec. 31, Baldoni and his publicists also sued the New York Times for libel, after the news outlet published a Dec. 20 article about Lively's claims that she'd been the victim of a smear campaign after speaking up about sexual harassment on the set of "It Ends with Us."

And lastly, Megan Markle started the new year with a fresh Instagram post from a newly launched account. In it, the Duchess of Sussex happily runs barefoot along the sand on a beach while wearing a white button-up shirt and a pair of white jeans rolled up above the ankle. Writing 20-25 in the sand before running out of the shot. Though the former “Suits” actress, 43, turned off the comments for the post, several stars showed their support by “liking” it, including her pals Serena Williams and Chrissy Teigen.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
