The List for Thursday, March 23rd 2023

Welcome to The List,

97-year-old Dick Van Dyke crashed his car into a gate last week, after losing control on a wet road.  His injuries were minor, and he might have suffered a concussion, but didn’t go to the hospital…unlike that pesky footstool he just couldn’t sidestep it!!

There’s a list of movie characters who are basically impossible to kill, according to voters on Ranker.com.  But for the record, some of these characters were eventually killed.  The vote getters were…John Wick at the top followed by James Bond, and Indiana Jones.  Others on the list were The Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail…”is but a flesh wound”…Westley in The Princess Bride  and Captain Jack Sparrow…

Tim McGraw was recently asked what’s in his tour rider.  The guy is a fitness fanatic so you’d expect him to list things like lean chicken breasts, tofu chips, and potassium-loaded smoothies.  But you’d be wrong.  Partly.  How about peanut M&M’s, and Coke in bottles that are from Mexico because they use real sugar…Tuna Sandwich and Muscle Milk.  Tim said he’s been touring so long there’s stuff in there he forgot he ever requested and just never touches.

Dierks Bentley tells Rolling Stone magazine that he’s still a front porch man. He loves the big front porch he has in Nashville. What he had in Colorado was like that…bikes, a porch. Outdoors is where he enjoys being. His porch is his favorite room in the house. It takes him back to the days when everyone used to sit on their porches in the evenings.”

Tom Brady has signed up to get “The Treatment” and we’re not talking facelifts…the retired quarterback has signed on to a Netflix Roast special…hold sauce…or in THIS case pile it ON!!  with the working title, “The Greatest Roast of All Time,” according to TMZ.    The ONLY thing that WON’T be roasted will be his family.  Hosted by the RoastMaster General Jeff Ross. The Greatest Roasts of All Time: GROAT kicks off a series of roasts and is scheduled for some time later this year.

Hailey Whitters was the last to know her song “Everything She Ain’t” had officially been certified as a gold single. The country singer, from Shueyville Iowa released her groundbreaking album ‘Raised’ less than a year ago, had quite the surprise coming when she was called into a meeting with her team “They called me in for a breakfast and all of a sudden there was a gold plaque in my face,” there’s no better way to wake up than two eggs over easy…toast…hot coffee, crispy bacon and oh! By the way here’s your GOLD RECORD!!

The List for Thursday, December 26th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Did you catch Beyonce’s performance during half-time on Wednesday’s game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans? She performed a medley of songs off her album, “Cowboy Carter,” released earlier this year. Post Malone and Shaboozey, who are featured on “Cowboy Carter,” made special appearances during the Christmas Day performance.

Carly Pearce spent some time on tour with Tim McGraw earlier this year, and although she’s an avid runner and big into other fitness regimens like Orange Theory and spinning, one workout she has no plans to incorporate into her routine is Tim’s intense CrossFit training. “Yeah, I’m not gonna be a part of Tim McGraw’s workouts because quite frankly, I don’t think I could keep up. I did pull the tire up and I got it up, but he said that he will flip the tire the length of like a football field, y’all. And I’m just not going to do that. I will stick to running. If Tim McGraw wants to do a running challenge, let’s go.”

Some people may not know that one of Justin Moore’s favorite hobbies is cooking. He loves to try new recipes and often watches the Food Network for inspiration. We wondered if Justin has ever considered putting all those family recipes and his other favorites into a cookbook. “I would certainly be up for it. I’ve not ever thought about it, but I think it would be somethin’ that would be fun to do.”

The 42nd president is currency hospitalized after coming down with a fever that required medical attention. NBC News reports Bill Clinton is in a Washington, D.C. hospital on his own accord. An aide told the media outlet that Clinton,  who is 78, “Is in good spirits and grateful for the care he is receiving.  “The former president will be fine. “He developed a fever and wanted to be checked out. He is awake and alert.”
