The List for Friday, March 18th 2022

Welcome to The List,

The Big 12 is in action in March Madness…and Brett Young Thinks Duke Is Going To Win ‘March Madness’ “I mean, born and raised a UCLA basketball fan. But over the past couple of years and I know they’re back and they’re better now but I’ve kind of lost interest, not lost interest, but I haven’t kept up as much as I’d like to with them. From what I’ve seen, I don’t know if they’re this good in the season, I don’t know how Duke doesn’t just dominate once we get into the playoffs, into the bracket.  There are a lot of great teams in college basketball right now, but if I had to bet on anybody it would be Duke hands down.”  You can catch the Iowa State Cyclones as they take on LSU tonight on Kix 101.1 coverage begins at 5:15.

Tyler Henry, is getting a lot of press lately he’s known as ‘The Hollywood Medium’, says his first prediction was the death of his grandmother. “Well, this all really started with me when I was only ten years old. I randomly one night just woke up and had this knowingness that my grandmother was going to pass away. So, it was really that catalyst that kicked off  the series of knowingness that kinda followed me throughout my life.” His series, ‘Life After Death;, is streaming now on Netflix.

Kelsea Ballerini tells TheSkimm.com that there are four items she always takes on tour. Her Throat Coat tea. She has a mug before and after she goes on stage. She needs her humidifier. Never leaves home without it. And her Skyn Iceland eye patches to keep her eyes from looking all puffy. Oh, and I one more thing her weighted blanket.  She can’t fall asleep without one anymore.”

 —-

Breland tells People magazine that he plans to take some time off and spend the weekend watching March Madness games and drinking wine with his friends. And the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not going to honor Dolly Parton’s request to pull her nomination…of course if she gets the votes she could always pull a Garth Brooks and not accept the award.

We’ve always heard that Tom Cruise was one of the actors considered for the roll of Tony Stark for Marvels Iron Man…. well he tells the Indian Express Newspaper that it was true and he turned it down  Saying “It had to be done in a way that I know it’s gonna be something special. And it just didn’t feel to me like it was gonna work. I need to be able to make decisions and make the film as great as it can be, and it just didn’t go down that road that way.”  Sounds to ME he wanted it HIS way and THEY wanted it MARVELS way…

THOMAS RHETT’s album, “Where We Started”, is ready for pre-sale orders and if you DO that you’ll have the option of receiving a cassette with commentary from him about each song.  He’s going old school because the title of the album feels nostalgic. So, if you’re still driving a car with a cassette player and want to play some music here’s your chance. “When I think about a cassette, I think about being young.  I remember my mom taking me to the store to buy a Faith Hill cassette when I was like, six or seven.  “And with the album being called ‘Where We Started’, it’s kind of just a deep dive into looking back at your younger self, and cassettes are what I grew up with.” Thomas Rhett’s album “Where We Started” is out April 1st

You can catch The List, weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1

Ira Dean Tel-Man, Johnny Cash, Trick Pony and more

What a pleasure it was to talk with Ira Dean. The interview was recorded in August when Iowa was dealing with "corn sweat".  We talked about how he got his job with Tanya Tucker, I asked him about Trick Pony and how Heidi Newfield join the group.

Ira shared how he met Johnny Cash, his wife June through their son John Jr. So many great stories one that hit Ira pretty hard-a conversation he had with Charlie Daniels.

His current single was a tribute to his mom who had recently passed. Then he shared about this new song...Tel-Man!!

A special thank you to Lynne Connolly for setting up this chance to talk to Ira. I hope it won't be the last. Also a huge shoutout to Ira's label 8-Track Entertainment for this beautiful autographed Telecaster guitar!!!

The List for Tuesday, January 21st 2025

Welcome to The List,

With the Inauguration yesterday…the question is…Who was the most bad A** movie president??  Harrison Ford's character in "Air Force One" tops the list followed by Bill Pullman in "Independence Day" and Jamie Foxx in "White House Down".

-----

Carrie Underwood had to sing "America the Beautiful" a cappella at the inauguration thanks to a technical glitch.  She was also just on the floor with no stage, and "The Daily Mail" claims she was annoyed about that.  Everyone online thought she shined though, and handled the moment very well.

-----

Zach Bryan promised to release a new song called, "Blue Jean Baby" on Sunday . . . But only if the Philadelphia Eagles win the NFC championship against the Washington Commanders…something tells me he’ll release it anyway…

-----

Is Demi Moore dating Andrew Garfield?  We don’t know but the two were seen together at Demi's Sun Valley home in Idaho. She is 62 while he is 41.

You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
