Kix Brooks Sits in the Hot Seat to Talk New “Cookin’ It With Kix” Cookbook, His Vegas Residency & His Reba Impression

Cookin-It-with-Kix-cook-book-2016-800pxJim Casey sat down with Kix Brooks to talk about performing in Vegas, hanging out in Tahiti with Reba McEntire and Ronnie Dunn, his new cookbook, “Cookin’ It with Kix,” and more. And be sure not to miss Kix’s “Fancy” impression of Reba at the 4:18 mark.
