Welcome to The List,
Tim McGraw is not a “comedy guy” he doesn’t watch comedy movies but we asked if he had to pick one guy… “George Carlin. He was always my favorite. Anytime I’m flipping through channels, and they have some old stuff with George Carlin and I sit and watch, and he’ll make me laugh.” Lately he and Faith every once in a while will catch an episode of All in the Family adding Archie Bunker makes him laugh pretty hard…

Your four-year-old is psyched right now, The Wiggles just went Country. They got a new truck. And in true Country fashion, they wrote a song about it. They replaced their “Big Red Car” with a big red truck. It’s called “Big Red Ute” (yoot) . . . Aussie slang for a utility vehicle. Maybe DON’T tell your kid about the song, though. Because if they love it, you’re in big trouble. It’s the kind of thing you only want to hear once, and even that might be too much.
