The List for Monday, June 14th 2021

Welcome to The List,

With Father’s Day just around the corner we asked Alan Jackson about the special way he raised his kids…“We try to be just not pushy hands on parents. We let them live and be their own way. I’m not stern with them. You know, I’m funny and light, and try to give them guidance and let them live and learn their own ways. And that’s something I think my parents did.”

And dads can be known for giving great advise…take what Brad Paisley’s dad said to him one time when it came to his guitar playing “You don’t have to be good right now, and that’s great.  But, someday you’re not going to be that cute, and you’re going to have to be pretty good or you’re just going to talk about the good ole days.”

The Northern Echo newspaper says Harrison Ford has allegedly asked fans to stop pestering him for selfies.  He’s filming the fifth Indiana Jones film in the U.K.. and he’s taken several selfies with some of his British fans, but I guess he’s over it…The 78 year-old has been placed on a grueling exercise routine for ”Indiana Jones 5”. He is walking, cycling up to 40 miles a day and eating energy bars. Indiana Jones 5 is scheduled to be in theaters July 28th of 2022

Author Stephen King has an interesting take on writing during the pandemic, sometimes it’s easier to retreat into the dream he says “Last year, during the pandemic that’s a great place to be.  Because the real world was kind of scary and kind of boring and it’s sometimes better to retreat into the dream.”

Vin Diesel says the Fast and the Furious franchise must come to an end. We agree….and On this date in 1969, Hee Haw debuted from “Kornfield Kounty” from 1969 to 1971…Were Buck Owens and Roy Clark were the hosts for 25 seasons…
