Apparently Tom Cruise makes a mean bunt cake…Uproxx says actually, it’s Tom Cruise’s white chocolate coconut cake and it’s the most coveted holiday gift in Hollywood. Doan’s Bakery, in Woodland Hills, California, makes the Bundt cake. Tom sends them to friends, family and co-stars. Henry Cavill: you know “Superman” says “It’s the most luxurious, unhealthy cake”

Actor Chris Evans is going from Captain America to Captain of Space Command…he’s going to voice Buzz Lightyear in a “Toy Story” prequel called “Lightyear” an origin story for the iconic “Toy Story” character. The project is aiming for release in June 2022.

Jon Hamm plays Vice Admiral “Cyclone” in the new ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ movie and says it’s a visual high five to the audience. “The movie is a visual high five, it is an excellent, perfect blend of nostalgia for the original and a continuation of the story. The visual elements in it the aeronautics the flight sequences are jaw dropping. It’s going to be worth the wait, I’m very excited for people to see it.”

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
