3:31 This had to be I had both my girls They were little They were probably like Oh, I know It was 1996 Ellen was not even two Elise I was pregnant with Elise And so we went to my ex -in-law's house for Thanksgiving Now, I love Thanksgiving meal I love the turkey I remember the story The mashed potatoes This is a classic The gravy It's a classic The cranberry sauce The broccoli cheese casserole The rolls The butter I love it all I don't eat like that typically I mean, who makes a meal like that during, you know Outside of Thanksgiving And so we ended up going to downtown Chicago To my ex-in-law's house And so I'm excited I'm like, oh, my favorite meal My favorite holiday meal And then so we're all seated at the table And out comes my father-in-law with steaks And I'm like, what?

4:27 What? Did you actually say what? Did you go No, I was just I couldn't Are you stunned? And then I'm like, surely he has mashed potatoes Surely Oh, no Out comes the baked potatoes And I'm not kidding you I was probably mad until New Year's This is the most anti-anti-Thanksgiving ever Why? Did you get any explanation about this? Oh, yeah Because the ex-sister-in-law's fiance They weren't even married yet Was allergic to poultry So they had steak That was the reason? Yes How about you just uninvite her? Right It's un-American I was angry I was angry for weeks I'm still a little angry about it Really, you were that angry?

5:09 Do you have any Thanksgiving stories? Well, most of the Because, you know, we lived in the Netherlands So a lot of the Thanksgiving Yeah, I know Brian is a fail Yeah, sorry Do you want me to get a different bottle for you? No, no, no, I'm good Are you going to drink that though? Because I'll drink it I'll give it to you So most of our Thanksgivings Weren't really Thanksgivings And you couldn't really get a big turkey Oh In Holland They were like, you want a what now? So your parents didn't celebrate it? My mom would definitely try to do stuff And we'd have sliced turkey or something But we did have a couple at Mead Road Oh Mead Road is where Is the curry clan Yes Since 19 My grandfather bought it in 19 I don't know, 34 or something Yeah, yeah And it's still in the family My uncle owns it Uncle Don And that was always the gathering place As you witnessed yourself You've seen You've been with the clan at Mead Road Yes, yes So you can imagine how fun that was as a kid Lots of places to hide And trip and fall And skin your knee And fall in the pond And all that stuff And this is where I learned of the tradition Of the cranberry sauce Yes, yes And so the tradition With the cranberry sauce So this is the cranberry sauce In the can Out of the can The jellied cranberry Yes Which, you know So Mama Who was my grandmother She was an excellent cook But her kitchen You would immediately have A heart attack She had signs everywhere That said, bless this mess What

6:41 came out of it Was amazing Was just so good But it was a disaster Oh, was it? I mean, just stuff Everywhere all the time So the food was phenomenal So then how this plop This, this This jellied cranberry Just popped onto a plate And it was kind of like Well, that's kind of odd Because you normally get The cranberry kind of in a dish Yes And the idea is This is the curry tradition You have to scoop it out Of the middle Starting from the top And the person who scoops it When it breaks and falls apart They're then the loser Which is And there's no penalty Just everybody laughs Yeah, I know It was just a fun thing But my grandfather Was kind of a practical joker Yes And so We had all eaten It was There were a lot of people There must have been two tables There was a kid's table You know, the whole thing And then they said Time for dessert What do you have for dessert?

16:12 I haven't really done You go in your studio And I don't see you all day You are heads down I see you on the couch And I wave at you sometimes And you don't see me I can see you right through the door Yeah Yeah Are you upset by me working? No not at all Not at all So I You know I wanted to talk about My question of the week Last week Do you remember What the question was? Yes Um How come you don't date me You bastard Oh Adam Why are you cussing? That's not a cuss Yes it is Bastard is not a cuss Yes it is Really? Oh I take it back You need to bleep it out I think I don't think that's a cuss word I think it is You really? Yes Yes It's not a nice word And I would never I would never Ever say that to you Okay Well I apologize God forgive me Yes I I didn't I did not know I was sitting in this moment Yes I really didn't think That was a bad word I I don't ever remember it As being a positive word No This is correct Yes No The question of the week was Uh I I can't remember the I know what happened Out of the question of the week But I don't remember The actual question of the week The question of the week was What do you think Is the most romantic Thing you've ever done Oh yeah And so then You started to spiral You want to go You want to talk about it?

17:31 Well Yeah Um Cause I I realized that Well hold on a second I'm I haven't been very romantic With my wife And I'm like This is This is not good This is not good I'm like And as I thought about it And then you kept Reassuring me that I didn't ask the question For that reason It wasn't intentional No No But it brought up a lot And then I got Yeah I started to have a meltdown I was melting down Like well I You know for 17 years Basically I My No agenda rules Kind of our life You know Vacations aren't Ever really You know Maybe we have 10 days a year That is That can completely unplug And you know That really has to be Timed perfectly With us going somewhere And you never Ever take If we're gone for a week You never take Two shows off Ever Not in a row You may take one Yeah Yeah But you're typically Always working And I'll be honest That's That's Purely fear That people will find Something else And then move on Which I think is A real plausibility In the In the podcast world And so I Yeah I was I was definitely spiraling Like Oh man What am I doing With my life If I'm not romantic With my wife Nothing is worth it The show is not worth it And then And then of course You're like Well I can always get a job I'm like Now Now I'm really spiraling Now I'm really going down the tube Like no No you can't That's not That's not the point So Well yeah Cause I said And it wasn't You

19:01 not being romantic It was you Dating me Because when we Exchanged rings in 2017 Well So then you reminded me Yes That I said I will always date you And then I realized I have really I've come very close To breaking my promise I think I have Still have a grace period It's called the windows closing Well you had an easy one You said I'll always be your biggest fan Well that's easy When your husband is so awesome But always dating you That requires some effort You know I was like I gotta live up to my promise But yes I really realized And I've just been super busy And it's not intentional But it's not good No I really You know I really had to think about it And then I prayed about it And I was like Hey God Should I Do less No agenda shows Uh huh You know So I can Well it started to spiral Into other things though too When you Oh sure It came to this realization Like wow I'm not really I'm not This is what you did say to me You go Well I really like I'm sitting on the couch with you And watching Seinfeld I was like That's not exactly How it went That's kind of what you said Like that's romantic isn't it No I didn't I never said that was romantic Yes you did It's not No I said I love We watch our Our sappy movies Our rom -coms But yeah No that's not romantic You know Right I mean It's not It's not

20:32 Being romanced Is you taking charge And making plans Because I'm usually Always the one that makes plans And like Again The question of the week Was not intentional But we realized That we kind of No Stop right there Stop right there Because you realized And you said And this was the thing That really hurt I haven't actually Discussed this with you Oh This is It's not It's not your fault But the thing that hurt me the most Uh oh Is that you said Well we just kind of Fallen into our paths And Into our lanes Into our lanes And I'm like That is the worst thing You could have said Yes Not Not That you meant it In a mean way Meaning But Horrible person Um But that really That That touched me I'm like Well I don't want to be In lanes like that Now It is true That you're very good At organizing Our trips and stuff But that has nothing to do With me dating you That That is That is Outside of it Well I think what happens Or happened Is I We We got in our Lanes And I agree with you It's not good Because we become Complacent then And then You become complacent And then It could turn into Resentment Um Which Thank goodness We haven't We haven't Gone down that But What happened was We just fell into our roles That I always just Plan the calendar And And then There were no dates available And then Do you just I just did it And then You know Just like the laundry I just do it And

22:03 you open the drawer And it's there I just make the plans And you show up And I tell you what to wear Hey that Oh Um Could you Just for the listeners Could you just tell everybody What my lane is Just so they know That I do something Oh you work See You work really hard That's horrible But you work really hard And you mentor Young men And you play with Willie And you hang out With your bestie Pastor Jimmy And you Yeah Yeah Yeah It It really It really doesn't matter Because It's just Well what ended up happening Is we didn't really do things Together Just me and you Well On vacation we do But Yeah That's not the point of You said it And I think This is going to sound really Uh oh Toxic Careful I think In a Male female relationship Sometimes the woman wants the man Just to take charge And arrange something And do something I'm one of those I'm in charge Yes Right By the way Not a very popular opinion For the past 15 years in America Teach his own I'm not I'm not saying This is I'm saying this for men out there Not for myself Yes Because It has definitely become Oh you're toxic masculinity I don't want But I think You in particular Enjoyed if I take charge Okay we're going to do this And I've taken care of it And we're good to go Yes Yes So I did that I know I know Because you know That was the Adam that I dated You know and Well I put a ring on

23:35 that man It's like I own that now Okay So I get to play with it How I want Just saying Um No I mean That's one of the reasons Why I fell for you Is because I liked That You took charge And you made plans And you made it happen And I remember when you called And you're like Hey I bought concert tickets To go see Chicago And Earth, Wind, and Fire Hey I bought concert tickets To go see Hall and Oates And I just I love that But yes I think We just both became I also have been Much busier in the last Couple of years You're very very busy Yes and so that's why That's why my question Was not To hurt you In any way And we have I've never had This level of Friend group And stuff that we're doing So there's just There's a lot going on So Yeah I'm not making excuses Yeah Yeah So anyway So I was looking For something So what did you do Adam Curry?

35:38 And was basically Dictating what You know What they would Preach about And what they'd speak about Well Hitler was Almost kind of becoming Like Nebuchadnezzar In the book of Daniel Totally Yes Totally Yes And you know There was more More worship of the state Than of God And And he was speaking up And so the story Not everything in the movie Reflected what I'd read In the Metaxas book Um Honestly Listened to Because it was Audiobook for me Um But the The general concept was And I didn't even know That this movie was out Apparently it took about 10 years to get this thing made Really? Yeah it's taken a long time And Angel Studios Uh Did it Um And I know it was different For me Than Probably anybody In the theater Because I grew up Knowing all this Not so much about The church part of it But knowing about Because you know The Netherlands was They capitulated within 24 hours To the German Invasion And I just know a lot About the persecution Of the Jews And the gypsies And all of this Throughout Europe And you grew up With these stories And And my My ex's Uh Dad He literally Rotterdam was bombed His The entire Where he lived His whole city Was bombed He would drive On a bicycle With wooden Uh Tires Um About 75 miles Oh my To get one sugar beet Oh my goodness And then On wooden wheels Okay Wow On wooden wheels And then drive back So they had a sugar beet To eat for the rest Of the week Oh my goodness You

My friends just call me Barney for short. And as you all said, your show is basically Seinfeld. So I'm claiming the role of Newman. Perfect. Yes, you are. You are our Newman. Because he irritates Jerry. Hello, Newman. Hello, Newman. Yes, that's perfect. From now on, Sir Brian the Newman. Yes. I should probably make a jingle for any time I show up uninvited. Nope. Which is most of the time. In the evening, y'all, he says. In the evening.

54:46 Thank you, Brian. Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving. Oh, another mini Striper donation coming in from KSUPike97. He says, so what is the amount of sats to become a salmonier? 350,000. I've calculated it. Oh, you have. You get time and a half. And today's Bitcoin price, 350,000. And you've sent in some. So do your own calculation. It's the honor system. We are looking forward to sending out some Kareem the Keeper sippy cups. I'm ready to donate them. And he says KTLD.

55:29 Randy Black comes in with five dollars. I hope you find the couple's devotional book I sent you to be a blessing and helps you both keep growing in Christ together. Which one was that? Have we seen it? I don't think we've seen the book come in yet. Have we? I don't remember. I have to look at my... I don't remember. Did we? I don't remember. We haven't read it together yet. That's for sure. I know that. We haven't. But did it come in? I don't... Randy Black? You keep asking me that. Well, I'm confused. I don't know if... Send me an email and tell me what the name of the book is. Yeah, because it might still be in the P.O. box. I don't know. This is... I don't remember.

I'm sure that, you know, I don't want to get mad at me again. Hold on a second. That's odd. ComixRibBlogger is usually always in here. Let me just double check that he didn't get missed somehow. Um, hmm. No. Oh, yes, here it is. I'm glad I checked. Well, that's interesting. I don't know how that, uh... Well, here it is. Happy Thanksgiving, Lovebirds. Yo. Yo. CSB.

57:30 5,415. Thank you very much. Thank you, CSB. I knew, I knew I was missing something somewhere. And that's it. Those are our, um, our supporters, our, uh, our producers. We have executive producers, associate executive producers. We give everybody credit. We're always happy to thank you on the show and go to curryandthekeeper.com. Subscribe to the newsletter. Tina's newsletter is fun. It kind of gives you a heads up of what's coming. Yes. Also, you can see the picture of her with an elephant. Yes. And I just wanted to read Peggy. Peggy sent us a sweet, sweet email. Well, she sent it to me. Yeah. From, from, uh, she responded to the newsletter and she said, love you both so much. Excited to see you in 2025. I guess the Leiden family is coming to visit sometime soon.

58:12 Oh, they are? Okay. I don't know. Oh, it's a nice chat with Jake today. So I said that. So she said, Scott says, happy Thanksgiving to you. And he says he is grateful that I have both of you and your podcast as sources of friendship and laughter. Jake is now home, which means, which means we need to have lots of food. We know how Jake eats for sure. I know you do caught up with Jake today. Yeah, it was a nice little chat. Fabulous young man. Yes. Yes. It gives me a lot of hope about the future of our nation. Yes. A number of these young guys that I, that I talked to from time to gives me good hope. Yes. There's good things happening in our country. You know, I, before we go to the question of the week, I did want to talk about the greatest story ever told. Yes, please roll it out, sister.

58:53 Do you want me to talk about it? Shall I give the background? Yeah, give the background. We've talked about some of it on the show, but probably about a year ago, maybe a little bit more. A year ago? When we had our first Mercy Me concert. Was that not about a year ago? Oh, a year and a half ago. Yes. The minute I was in that Mercy Me concert, I'd never seen, I knew half a song. In fact, I'm wearing my Mercy Me t -shirt today. Imagine. Imagine. I was at that concert. I'm like, this is a concert like I've never seen before. Because, you know, the guys are all big No Agenda fans, most of the band. And it was just mind-blowing. The songs. I'd never been to a concert where the lyrics were on a screen.

59:35 I know, you love that. I'm like, this is a great idea. How come Ozzy never had that? It's so much... Well, of course, that'd only be... That's Sharon. Sharon! Just loved everything. Loved the audience. Loved the vibe. And then we saw Lauren Daigle. Yes. 12,000 people. And I saw Elevation Worship. And I saw Phil Wickham. And I was like, this would be great for Fredericksburg. Fredericksburg, there's something happening here. It would be great to have a venue in Fredericksburg. So I've just started talking about this and talking to people. And Trey, aforementioned Trey with the food truck and Salvation Spirits.

1:00:18 He actually said, can you come over and tell me the story about what you're thinking about? And he said, I just want to get this started. So I'm just going to start with a Christmas concert. And he literally started the next day and... Well, it wasn't the next day. It was a few weeks. It was a few weeks. But he started working on it. And he had a meeting with me and he's like, well, it seems like you got everything done, Trey. What do you need? He says, will you emcee it? I said, of course I will. Yes. And so it's happening. And, you know, he's put together a nonprofit. People have generously supported this. You've been a big part of that. Take it away, Tina, to explain what's going on. No, I mean, because of my fundraising background, I've been able to help him with a little bit of things.

1:00:59 But what I did today is I got the posters. I went and picked up the posters and the flyers and I walked Main Street. And I walked all the way up and down. Up and down from Adams to Washington. And then Andrea took the... Oh, she also... She took a part of it too. We're not done. But I don't know how many posters I had in my hand, but I walked in and I asked them a lot. So many people were so delighted and said, oh my gosh, this is amazing. Because I said, it's a concert. It's a free concert. I said, we're bringing more Christ into Christmas. And everybody was delighted to hear that. I love that. Oh my gosh, that is so great. So yes, I walked up and down and I'm happy to help. I mean, it's, you know, we're a rag tag crew.

1:01:42 We're a rag tag crew, but we're getting it done. You are, I love that. You just walked Main Street, put it in store windows. When you're passionate about something and people can tell, and I was pleasant. And I'm like, happy Thanksgiving, have a blessed day. I mean, I just was filled with... And then one store you went into, you went back in and bought the blazer. I bought it, so I bring the blazer. So I asked the woman, she's like, I can't put it in the window, but I'll put it in the back. We get a lot of traffic in the back. And I said, oh, that's great. Thank you so much. And I'm walking out and this blazer catches my eye. I grabbed the blazer, put it on. I go up to her and I go, this is not a part of the plan for me to buy something. So that was fun. But I wanted to ask you... The poster is beautiful, by the way.

1:02:24 Oh, a lot of people were. Nice poster. It's a work of art. It's called The Greatest Story Ever Told. It's beautiful. Yeah. Is there a website that people can go to? It's projectharvesttexas.org. Projectharvesttexas.org. Let's double check. So what are you going to say, Adam? So you're emceeing and you're supposed to give your testimony. That could be really long. No, it's not going to be long. Like tonight's prayer or dinner. Is it projectharvesttexas? Or is it... You better say this right now, girlfriend. Harvestprojecttexas.org. Harvestprojecttexas.org. I want to make sure I want to put it in there. Yes, it's harvestprojecttexas.org. There you go. It's there.

1:03:04 Beautiful. Okay, excellent. HPT. Um, I'm going to start off by saying hello, everybody. And then, Freebird, here's Whitesnake. Now, don't worry. I don't have it planned yet. You know me. Well, you can't talk for a half hour. No, I'm going to talk about eight minutes, maybe seven. Okay. Yeah, it all depends on the flood. You going to mention me? Yeah, should I mention Sir Brian, too? Newman? Should I talk about everybody? All the people who need to be mentioned? I'm just traumatized by the Marconi award. Yeah, yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah. And then Pastor Jimmy's going to do the opening prayer. So I'll probably introduce him first. You know, Trey and I have got to talk about it, but you know me. It's like, we'll figure this out the day before, and it's going to be perfect.

1:03:46 But the whole idea is there'll be volunteers before and during and after, and they will have t-shirts on that say, ask me about my story. About my story. And the T in story is a cross. Yeah, so if people are interested, instead of like, ask me about Jesus, which is, you know, like, ask me about my story. So I'm going to kind of set the tone by here's my story. It'll be short. Don't worry. I won't go into the whole thing about, hey, I love your show. And I won't go into all of that. I'll just. Yes, I need to hear it before you get up there because you need to stay on track. Do I have a whip sound effect?

1:04:27 Because I really need it right now. It's got to be captivating, too. Or else people will be like, snooze fest. Man, really? You're speechless. I am. You're kind of like sitting there like, like, like I don't know how to do public speaking. I'm looking for a whip sound effect. Honestly, I thought, I thought I had one here. I only have. I'm just making myself laugh. There we go. Your lasso. It'll be fun. It'll be fun. If anybody's in Fredericksburg next weekend, we hope you can join us. And for more details and all the cool stuff, go to hellofred.fm, everybody.

1:05:09 You know what it's time for? The question of the week. Your glass tastes crappier than mine. Hey, everybody. It's time for the question of the week. The one that pushed where? The question of the week. Tina knows the question. So, you know, it's always fun. Because, you know, sometimes it sends me into a complete meltdown for three days. But here we go. It's the question of the week, everybody. Tina, what have you come up with? I'm going to do the question next week because, you know, this has become a danger segment for me. It has not. It was it was traumatizing. Okay. Ready? Think back to your dating days.

1:05:50 Think back. What dating days? I know, but you had a few. Dating. Okay. What was a deal breaker when you went out with somebody? Kankles. Deal breaker. Remember, shallow dating days. Kankles. Sorry. You asked me right off the top of my head. That's it. So if I wore pants the whole time we were dating, like six months, you fall madly in love with me. Then I decide to wear a skirt and I have kankles. You would have broken up with me. Deal breaker. It's not you. It's me. You said thing back to my dating days. This is way long ago. This is not. This is superficial dating days.

1:06:31 No, no, I definitely I would have. It would have not been a deal breaker. But you would have worn pants for the rest of your life. Shallow, shallow. That's not correctable either. Sadly. No, you can't exercise off your kankles. That's all right. Okay. So it's not a deal breaker when we were dating. But you asked me, you asked me. But consider how easygoing I am. If that's all, I mean, you could be a four as long as you didn't have kankles. All right, you're up. I definitely, hands down, without a doubt.

1:07:12 Can I say it? No, I'm going to say it. Can I write it down and see if I was right? Hold on. Hold on a second. Hold on a second. Hold on. This is like the honeymoon game. The newlywed game. The newlywed game. Okay. I nailed it! I, a deal breaker for me is a man with long fingernails. I cannot, I can't. No. We need you to do the Curry and the Keeper question of the week home game. So it's like a board game. You have all these cool questions and then people have to answer them. Yeah. Yeah. No, exactly. Men with long fingernails, deal breaker, done and nope.

1:07:55 That's correctable though. You could, you could train somebody and say, dude, your face is a 10, but your nails are a one. Should I use that as the promo on Hello Friends? Oh man. And then how about those guys that have the really long pinky nails? Like what is that? It's disgusting. So dudes, if you have long nails, cut them, cut them. Just cut them. It's not good. Women, wear pants if you got the kankles. We're not superficial. We're Curry and the Keeper, everybody. I love you, Mrs. Curry. I love you too, babe. We'll see you next week, everybody. Happy Thanksgiving. Yes, happy Thanksgiving.

1:09:14 you
