29:09 So we had a lot of different gifts to get. And we went shopping in Fredericksburg, Texas for Texas themed gifts for our family. Yes. Yes. I think we were very successful. And I want to just say, hey, just let's get everybody a don't mess with Texas t-shirt. And they're like, no, we need to do a little better than that. But then, so you're, I'm like, I don't really know. I don't know Willow, Tiffany and Sabi's taste. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what they like. I don't know what they have. We found, don't. I know Willow listens. Nobody else listens, but Willow. By the way, the only one in my family ever listens. That's it. No one. Isn't that amazing? Does your family listen?

29:49 I don't think so. No. Maybe my sister, Lisa. I don't know. She never mentions it to me. Tony doesn't listen. Jesse's mom listens. We know that. Yes. Connie listens. Ellen doesn't listen. Elise doesn't listen. Jesse doesn't. Christina doesn't. I don't think. What is that? I don't know. That's rude. Why wouldn't you want that? Rude family members. I mean, do they just think it's like boomer talk, which obviously it is, but let's just say with everybody I know who does podcasts, their family never listens. Our friends listen more because I got a text from Brandy yesterday. She goes, waka, waka, waka. She goes, I was cracking up laughing. I go, I like to make fun of Adam.

30:30 That's okay. But I don't know. I don't know if Lisa listens. She never mentions it. I know Tony does not. I don't know if Laura still listens. I don't know. They don't ever mention it. But I know like, I know Christina, Dame Christina Pearl listens. I know Trusa does. Peggy does. They just want to hear their name check. Got it. Yeah. So yeah, so we did Christmas shopping, so we got it all done. We couldn't buy big bulky things because suitcase space, because we got to take warm clothing, which is going to take up more space. It's apparently already snowing. It's arctic out there. I understand. I know. It's going to be chilly. We still don't know what we're doing. We don't know where we're going, but what we should be wearing other than she said, casual chic for Saturday night.

31:14 And then there are outdoor activities on Sunday. I don't know about the outdoor activities. I hope there's a fireplace and some, I hope there's like Irish coffee. Yeah, something like that. I'm like, okay, outdoor activities. Or cappuccinos, hot cappuccinos. And this morning I got up bright and early. Yeah, this was, well, actually I was up earlier than you, so I had your coffee ready, but I- I know that was so sweet that you did that. Right. Well, I woke up early. I'm like, I'll just get up and I'll have it ready. And I knew you were going to get up at 630. Yes. And so I had it good to go because you were doing something really cool. Yes. So I signed up to support this Devo's and Donuts at Bridge Church for the middle school students.

32:03 So this program was developed where they go into the schools and they minister to the students. So they do a worship. So they do a song. But it's outside. It's outside. It's outside before school starts. It's before school starts, yes. So we had to be there at seven. And they give out donuts and juice to all the students. And then they encourage them to participate in the worship music. And then they give up and they minister to them and then they close it with a song. And last count, I heard that there was 260 students there that came and listened to it. And what struck me more than number one, it was very well organized.

32:44 Number two, lots of volunteers from the church. So I was happy to be able to participate. I have to be careful because every kid I talk to, I'm like, here you go, hon. Here you go, hon. I call everybody hon. I think that's from Teresa. Is that inappropriate somehow? Yeah, I guess maybe I shouldn't do that, but it's so natural for me. I do it to anybody. But the thing that blew me away was this young girl in the Catalyst Youth Group, which is the youth group at Bridges Church, got up. She had to be maybe 12, 13. And she prayed. She prayed in front of all her peers. And I was blown away by her courage and her love for Christ.

33:28 And she had absolutely no fear. She just put it out there. And I just thought, because there's adults that won't do that. Oh, most adults won't do that, I'd say. And so I was just, I was blown away by that. I did. And there were several kids that bowed their heads and prayed. And it was cool to witness. It really was. And this is the second time they've done it. And from what I understand, the first time the school called the church leadership and said, this is our best day. The kids were great the whole day. Could you please do this every single day? I said, well, we can do it once a month. But I mean, think about the impact you're having on these young lives.

34:09 It's fantastic. You know, and it's just a nudge. It could be just a nudge or it could be a full-on effect. It's all good. It was really cool. It was cold out too. It was 31 degrees. Well, when you left, it was 26 degrees on Main Street in Fred. I heard on hellofred.fm. Yeah. So it was really cool. It was really cool to be a part of it. I enjoyed it. Yeah. Yeah. So are you ready to go? Are we set to go? Because we're leaving now. Let me see. Next Wednesday, a week from today. But actually, we go to Austin on Monday. Yes. A reminder for those of you who are in the Austin area, Monday, December 16th, Antone's, famous Antone's in Austin, famous club, Adam Curry's Boostergram Ball Live.

34:54 We have five bands with special guests, including Suzanne Santo. She's going to be performing that. You can promote that now? I can promote it now. Yes, I can promote it now. It's going to be streaming live, so you can watch it on the Modern Podcast apps. If you've got Fountain or Podcast Guru or what am I missing? Podverse or CurioCaster, LM Beats, et cetera, et cetera. Tunesir, all these different places, but you can also come live. I think my guest list is like 25 people. No, it's not that many, is it? Yeah, everybody has a plus one. Yeah, it's about 25 people. Wow. For sure. Well, I have Rogan plus three, two for security if he wants to bring anybody.

35:35 He hasn't said if he's going to make it or not. He's not going to come. You know, you don't know. You don't know. I don't know. He's always, you know, thanks. We'll see. Yeah. It's all right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got Gene coming and Mark is coming. Oh, Mark Hall's coming. Mark Hall's coming. Excellent. And Kim and Tim are coming and Tiffany and Rob, Julie and Ben. We definitely have people from all walks of entertainment, business and other life. So it's going to be fun. Yeah, it'll be fun. It doesn't end until like 11, I think. What? You're going to be starving. You're going to need something to eat. Yes, there's five bands. Oh my. I was hoping we could go out afterwards. I figured it'd end by nine.

36:15 What? This is not a kiddie show. I didn't know. It starts at seven. Babe, you're going to have to get something to eat. You're going to be hungry. We'll figure it out. It'll all be okay. And I'm doing an interview for a documentary before that about a value for value, which is nice. I like that, you know, so it's really, although I'm interested in different kinds of music these days, it really is for the whole concept of changing the music industry, regardless of what the music is. Yes. And we're doing it. And I just love the Costellos are coming in. Oh. Yeah, with Ainsley. Really? So Jim and Julie are coming in. Oh. Oh yeah. No. Have you ever met them? I've never met them face to face. Okay. No. Have you met Ainsley?

36:56 You haven't met Ainsley. No, never met him face to face. Cool. Yeah. So it's going to be fun. Nice. I'm excited about it. I'm excited to see you in action. I get nervous for you up there. I'm just going to be like, I need my leather jacket. Are you going to wear your leather jacket? I don't know. Let me guess, you're going to wear a hoodie. I might. I don't know. I don't know if it's going to be warm in there. If only I had that beautiful belt, that would be so perfect. The one you gave away. You told me I could give it away. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. You can wear your Uggs. Can't be. Yeah, you're right. I can't be wearing that. Yeah. And then Tuesday, of course, we have to take Phoebe to Paws and Claws on Monday.

37:37 Yes. And that will be the last I'll see of her for 12 days. I know. I can see you're jonesing over there already. Well, I just feel bad for her, but I don't think she, I think she probably has, it's okay. She sleeps all day. That's all the dog does. The people there are really nice. They really care. She sleeps. Yeah. Well, okay. At least she has an executive suite and makes me feel a little bit better. Which is basically just separate from the cages and it's got a wooden door. It's got a gate door. She, she's a princess, you know, like I wouldn't want to put you in a, in a, in a wooden cage. Yes. Yeah. Just saying. I'm not a dog. I'm just saying, wouldn't want to put you, I wouldn't do that to you.

38:19 So I'll be okay. Okay. I'll be okay. I'm sure she'll be okay. We're picking her up on Saturday, the 28th. I know. Yeah. It's quite, quite a bit, quite a bit. Yeah. Ah, where are we at? You want to do Godshot? Yeah, let's do it. It's time for Tina's Godshot. I can't wait to hear what you've got teed up for us this time. Well, you know, I've gone through this many, many times and it bears repeating. So God, gosh, praise God. He always gives us what we need. All we have to do. He hears us. He hears our cries. He hears our anguish.

39:00 He hears our prayers and he gives us what we need. So there was one day last week that I was, and I don't even think I told you about it because I was working through it with God. And I started to spiral when I learned about something. I started to spiral. And I'm not going to get into what I was spiraling about, but I could feel myself starting to self-sabotage. So I could protect myself and that's my protection mechanism. And that's what I had learned recently. And I did what I learned when I did my session with Tommy. And he told me that, you know, he said, when things are going to happen, he said, the enemy is going to keep coming at you.

39:44 He said, and picture it, and I think I mentioned this before, picture it like the enemy is going to take an arrow and he's pointing, he's pulling back the bow. And you catch the arrow. Yes. And he shoots the arrow and I grab the arrow and I break it in half and I throw it on the and that's exactly what I did as I felt. And I could, I could feel it and I could feel the self-sabotaging and, and then. Well, the fact that you even could identify it as self-sabotage is big. Yes. Well, this is a big, profound shift for me going through this freedom session with Tommy. And Annette's going to love that.

40:24 I closed my mic as I laughed. Freedom session. That could be the show title. And so I came across this proverb and I say this all the time and there's so much truth to it. That's why I keep repeating it. And it's Proverb chapter four, verse 25. Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you. And that is so true that when you feel those things, when you feel the enemy coming at you, when you feel something is not right, when it's not aligned with the fruit of the spirit, focus your eyes on Jesus and it just dissipates and it works.

41:04 And I am, I have testimony to it over and over and over again. So I was doing my daily devotional and I came across this. These were the words in the devotional. It says, if I stay in faith, all the pieces will come together for my good, not just the good breaks and increases, but even the losses and disappointments. It will be a perfect fit when God brings it all together. I can't, I cannot say enough about how that just is phenomenal. Phenomenal. And it works. I love it. Yeah. I love it. And so how long from start to finish do you think it took for you to get out of it? A couple hours? Five minutes, 10 minutes. Five minutes?

41:45 Yes. Wow. That fast? Yes. Wow. And you know what that means? That used to be five days for you. Tiptoeing around. And I'd be like, did I say something? That's what men always think. Did I say something? I know you always ask me that. All men do this. We always think, did I say something? Did I do something? Yeah. No, no. It's so quick because I can identify it now. And I know, I know the enemy. I can, I can see it so quickly. Lots of times. Of course, sometimes, you know, we have misfires and it's not always perfect, but this time, because it was so related to what I went to be healed, the topic.

42:26 And I could see it. I could feel it. I could, everything. And I, and I, yes. And it worked. It totally worked. I love it. That is so awesome. So isn't that cool? Yes. Yeah. So that's my grad shot. How about some more wine? Oh, well, yes, of course. Just a tad, not too much. While we're doing that, let's uncork some corks over. Okay. Here we go. Now it's time to hear from the Coke Soakers. We got to hear from those Coke Soakers now. What did you say? Wait, what did you say? Now it's time to hear from the Coke Soakers.

43:06 Go to curryinthekeeper.com to learn about our value for value model, a documentary forthcoming to explain it all. Yeah, I'm doing the documentary. It'll be a while. It'll be a while because they're doing a lot. The guy, this guy had a whole meeting with the guy. It's a documentary about value for value. Value for value. He's going to go and interview Dvorak in California. Really? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I thought it was about Booster Graham Ball. No, it's about value for value. Wow. Okay. Open mic, open mic or arranges everything. He takes care of that. Very cool. So value for value means that we put this out, you know, there's no paywalls or subscriptions or anything. We do it just to give it out to you.

43:48 And if there's anything you want to send back in return, we have a P.O. box. We love getting stuff in our P.O. box. It's always fun. And you can also send us. We love the Booster Grahams because it's like a direct. You can do it straight from the podcast app. It's directly connected to the app. You can also send us a PayPal. And we do have a reward structure for you. Go to curryinthekeeper.com. You can see how you can become a Salmonier, which means you get these beautiful Curry and the Keeper sippy cups. Yeah, there's dust all over them. I'm ready to donate them. And you get some coasters. I think there's a number of people who are Salmoniers who just haven't done the math. But you really should do it because we love to honor you that way.

44:28 And we appreciate the blessings that people give us. And we start off with not one, but a double Striper donation boost. Yes. Oh, 155,554 Satoshis from Pastor Jimmy. Because he totally says, I totally missed last week's boost. That's OK. That's what I said. He says, here's a double boost to make up. Love seeing you both at the WWJD classes, which. We get our second certificate because we completed them all. What a great course. This is phenomenal. Try editing the workbooks to talk about getting filled with wisdom and knowledge.

45:11 That'll do it right there. He says, PB was on fire, Pastor Brian. Pastor Brian, he is really good. What I like about Pastor Brian is he'll do the etymology of words sometimes in such a way. And they'll relate it to him. I mean, it's a different style from Pastor Jimmy. I wouldn't want them to be exactly the same. No, of course not. But he is on fire. And when he's doing this, he's in his wheelhouse, man. Yeah, I like him. But, you know, Pastor Jimmy's my favorite. Oh, OK, gotcha. I don't think Pastor Brian listens to the show. He says, Pastor Jimmy says, love you both. Looking forward to our Augusta Vin outing this weekend, which, of course, we talked about.

45:52 KYBO, KTLD. I like that you worked with him to get his wallet. Oh, yeah, I worked on the wallet. What I like doing right now with him is we're working on programming Hello Fred. I know. And we're doing the music. I know, you two have a project you're working together on. It's a lot of fun. It really is. He's very excited by it, as am I, of course. We have Daniel Williams checking in with $25. I don't have a note. Daniel, send us a note sometime. We'd love to read it. I don't think I have one either. Let me see. Uh, no. No, I don't think he sends notes.

46:33 You can put it in the PayPal. You can send us an email. Then with a mini striper boost. Oh, look who it is here. It's the OG Sam and Yang. We happen to be enjoying his wine right now. Young couple. Safe travels and Merry Christmas. We know Phoebe will be staying at her posh resort. But what about plant? Plant doesn't need a lot, because there's not much of plant left. Because there's not plant anymore. It's stick. You know, this is another great show title. Stick. You think it's all funny.

47:13 I'm sorry. You have to understand. This is as painful to me as when you broke my favorite cup and didn't care. Oh, oh, babe, I didn't kill your plant. Yet. You did not help it. I did not promise and promise and promise. And then it was. I did not kill your plant. Which cup was that that I broke? Everybody can worlds can be the world's greatest dad. But I invented podcasting. You thought it was just a cup. I'm like, I liked that cup. That's right. Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm more sensitive than you clearly think. OK, I'm going to get you another plant. No, I want this plant. OK, I'm going to try.

47:54 I'm going to perform CPR on the plant. Please do. Another mini striper boost here from sure. Brian with an eye. Seventy seven. Seventy seven. He says you got to make sure you give him splits when he does the show, because I don't think you did for the last show. Oh, does he have a wallet? Yes, he has a wallet. Oh, I'm sorry, Brian. I'll give you splits. Don't forget, everyone. This Monday in Austin, Texas, 6 p.m. It's Adam Curry's booster grand ball live at Antone's. Come and enjoy some fantastic music. Say hi to Adam and Tina. Meet the guy who did the in the evening jingle Clint. Yeah. And most importantly, come say hi to the special guests who shall not be named for reasons of anonymity.

48:35 He doesn't want you to know who will be because he's not bringing his secret service this time in the evening. I guess that's Brian. Hey, 5300 sets. There's comic strip blog. How do you love birds? Connecticut based Larry from Planet Rage podcast has a malicious, malicious, malicious deep voice. Got it. And I hereby recommend this podcast Planet Rage dot show. It's a clip show podcast exactly like no agenda, but by two Irish Americans. Other co-host is shouty deep voice Darren from Chicago War Zone.

49:15 Adam's no agenda pre-show partner. How many? How many podcasts is Darren do? Darren does a lot. Yeah. Is that his full time job? Yeah. Yeah. Good for him. I think he has a wife who actually works. I was very lucky that way. We're all looking for a wife like that, Darren. Excuse me. Yo, yo, CSB. Thanks, CSB. Five dollars from Timothy Emery.

49:58 Yes. Thank you. We got it. We're going to start in January. Enjoy it and dive into God's word together. KTLD KYBO. And there's a mini, mini, mini striper donation from Salty Crayon. Oh, in the evening. I don't think I've laughed more than when Tina said, is that what you're doing at Booster Graham Ball Live? Waka, waka, waka. I had to replay that part of Adam's reaction over and over. Priceless. Well, since it's a season, here's a little Christmas poem. He has a Christmas poem.

50:38 All through the night and all over town. Jolly St. Nick in the morning to see. Making sure he leaves presents under your tree. Unless you leave presents where you pee. He will skip your house if you don't leave the lid down. Leave the lid down or keep the lid down. Keep the lid down. KTLD KYBO. The talent, the talent we have in our audience, the talent of Vineyard Nation. It is beyond, it is beyond, beyond belief. Thank you all very much. That's beautiful value. We love those blessings. Go to curryinthekeeper.com to learn more. And again, we love all kinds of value. Even if you're just telling people about the show, that's also valuable.

51:21 Time, talent, and treasure. And, uh, yeah, go ahead. I was going to say, we're not going to be here next week because we're going to be on a plane. Now we're actually, are we not doing two weeks worth of shows? No, we're going to do the best of next week. So yes, we're not doing two weeks of show, but best of next week. And then what happens? And then we're taking off on Christmas Day. Oh no, it's Christmas Day. Of course. We're taking off. No, of course. But if Christmas Day landed on a Thursday or Sunday, no agenda would still be recording. Ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-da-ba. Ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da -ba. You know what, it's time for- Look, who am I? I'm saying that? What? Say what?

52:01 No, who am I saying that? Like, we're not recording on Christmas? Who am I? Yeah, what's wrong with you? Hey everybody, it's time once again for the question of the week. And Tina has the question all set, so her answer is good to go, so it's a real challenge for me. I'm ready. Okay. All right. I'm ready. Going back to May 19th, 2019. Okay. I know what happened on that day. Yes. Name one thing from our wedding you absolutely loved. Just one? Yeah. Like the one thing that makes you, that stands out. Well, there's so many things. I know. But what's the one thing? I think kind of the coolest thing, just what I like, because we also have video of it, is after we were pronounced man and wife by the dog walker, ACDC kicks in and we rocked out all the way down the aisle out of the room.

52:54 Which song was that? You Shook Me All Night Long. Yes. Yeah. I loved that. That was my favorite too. Bam! You get to choose another one. Because you know, that just showed our personality, you know, our relationship. Well, we also walked into Lovely Day by Bill Withers. And we walked in together. We walked in together. Yeah. I didn't even consider that that was different. Yeah. Yes. We walked in together as opposed to- Sorry. You have to come up with a new one now because I chose, that's why you were looking at me straight. I'm like, is this a bad one that I chose? No. But no, I chose yours. That was exactly the thing that I loved because it was just so perfect for our relationship. At that time. Yes. Yeah.

53:35 Gosh. Ah! See how hard it is? I know. I don't want to say those rings that were hanging from the ceiling. They were nobody's favorite, okay? Whatever that was, that was not what we intended it to be. I wanted these circles hanging, like these greenery circles hanging from the ceiling. They looked like half of the Olympic rings. And tiny. And they were bad. It was like, if you've ever seen a spinal tap, like, it would be like Stonehenge. And then these little rocks come down from the ceiling. That was basically our rings. Yes. Yeah. Our green rings. No, my favorite part was definitely walking out after we were married. That was by far my favorite. Other than our vows and our commitment to each other, of course.

54:16 But I love that because it was just such the essence of us as a couple and the fun that we have. And it was a fun, fun, fun wedding. Very fun. Yes. Yes. And we have a lot of it on video and on pictures, which is nice. And we have a book. We have a wedding album. We have a wedding album. It only took a couple of years, but we have a wedding album. It took five. It took five. Yeah. Wow. We're done. We're done. I think we're good to go. Yeah. Mrs. Curry. Yes. Will you join me here next week for the Best Of show? Well, yes, we'll sort of be here. But after that, we won't see, we won't actually be talking to you until the new year, until 2025. But we will, in the Best Of show, we will have a fresh God shot and a fresh question of the week.

54:58 Yes, we will. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And thank you to Sir Brian for pulling it together because he doesn't have a life and he said he's happy to do it. I love you, baby. I love you too, darling. Hey, everybody, make sure you catch that Best Of show and we will talk to you live again in the new year.
