0:00 Unknown: And she can keep in mind, everything's fine. You got all that you need. Curry and a keeper. Curry and the keeper. August 7, 2024, Episode 99 curry and a Adam Curry: keeper. Well, hello, my queen of the dog, rolling scene. Unknown: You finally witnessed it. You Adam Curry: finally witnessed it. I Tina Curry: did. I finally did. I didn't know, I did not know what you were talking about. And I finally, I just got the show tonight, before the show. Adam Curry: So this rarely happens, but all I'm I'm prepping, getting everything ready. It's, uh, 730 you're like, I want to take her out for a minute. I'm like, what?

0:46 Tina Curry: Yeah, which is unusual, because she doesn't usually go out to about 930 Adam Curry: never. It's like, we never take her out. And you said, Oh, she's standing by the door. Well, she's Tina Curry: standing by the laundry door, which is back by the back door. And I said, Do you want to go out? You want to go outside and walk to the front door? Say, Yes. She walked to the front door, to the front door, yes. Okay, I guess you need to go out so she knows what outside means, Adam Curry: yeah, yeah, yeah. She knows car won't say it because she's here. She knows, she knows. And so you took her outside she pooped, because clearly that was what was going on. Like, a 10 dropper, like, Tina Curry: little like, little like, cookies, dropped a Adam Curry: bomb on me. Yeah? Well, was like, Tina Curry: I'm not picking that up. Sorry. It was like, you know, area, Adam Curry: it was not really in front of a neighbor who has a house there.

1:33 Tina Curry: I would always, but then, but then, Adam Curry: because this is something I keep telling you, said she does this, and you say she never does that for me. Well, you walk her true, but, but tell, tell everybody what she did. Tina Curry: So she's the grass. So our, one of our neighbors, always mows the perimeter of the whole subdivision. And our subdivision is not that big. There's maybe 14 lots, yeah. And we Adam Curry: refuse to have an HOA, Tina Curry: and he he mows it so that the snakes, because, he said, because the snakes will go in the long grass, and it's about maybe six feet from the curb, he mows it, and then there's long grass. Well, it's time to be mowed again. And so some of the grass is really large, and I see her going through, like, she takes her face and her shoe, her she puts her face through the long grass, and I'm like, what? I've never seen her do that. And then she stopped, and she rolled, 97 pound dog rolling in the cool Adam Curry: and didn't her legs in the air and everything. Never seen that. Lay down on one side for a second, and then she rolled over to the other side, and then she rolls over. I Tina Curry: wonder what that behavior is. I have no idea.

2:41 Well, Adam Curry: I do know that if there's a dead animal in No, Tina Curry: I know that because she did that with the baby fawn that was eaten by the vultures, she stopped and had to roll in that. No, I know you got to pull her away from that. It was basically gone. What is Adam Curry: it? That's wolf instinct. That's that way they smell like the prey. And, you know, this is dumb, of course, because you know these animals. Hey, by the way, cheers, Oh, cheers, cheers, darling. So what are you drinking? Well, but first, let me try it, and I'll tell you what it is. Oh, oh, I don't know smells, I'm kind of musty. Oh, let me try this. Tina Curry: I think that's a vaudeville bottle. I'm not sure.

3:24 Does it need to open up for sure? So I need to try, would you Adam Curry: like to try that for a second? This is a Spanish wine. I believe. I'm not, I'm not Rico. And it's, it's comes from San Miguel. It's from Mexico. It is from Mexico, San Miguel, Mexico. What is this? Tina Curry: I'm not a fan of Argentinian wine. Adam Curry: It's a cutting Carina, 15% volume alcohol. That'll do it for me. Oh no. Wine, if Chile, it says, oh Unknown: no. Uh, Adam Curry: no, this isn't Wow. That's kind of that is disappointing.

4:07 Tina Curry: I think that's a vaudeville wine too. Adam Curry: I want to talk to Dylan, like, Dude poison. Are you trying to give me? I'm not 100% he's from Chile, Chile, Chile, Tina Curry: the home of Whitney Webb. Adam Curry: This is Tina Curry: maybe just needs to open up. It's got, it's got quite these Adam Curry: needs to open up in the garbage can. Tina Curry: Maybe you're gonna leave it there. You leave it there on your desk, because you're not gonna knock it over. Okay, thank you. Thank you. You don't, I was gonna say you never put your drinks, Adam Curry: yeah? Well, actually, I need to swap it around. Okay, right? Okay. Hey, babe. I had a thought. Yeah, I'd have thought that. Why don't we flip the script, do something crazy? Tina Curry: Okay? Oh, Adam Curry: not that. Why don't we do our cork Soakers? Thank you at the top, and maybe that will give you some joy about how much I've Tina Curry: been saying that I'm losing my. Joy for the show. And joy is my word for 2024, and I have practiced a lot of joy.

5:04 Unfortunately, I'm losing the joy for the show, because I feel like nobody's really listening. Nobody's respond, except for one person, which we know, who built a website around. He mentioned, and I'm not gonna mention his name, because then he'll clip this and put this on his Adam Curry: you know, it's like, maybe it's because, you know you're not on Twitter anymore. So that's good. I mean, someone today made a fun joke about the show on Twitter, and of course, you don't see that and, but that's good. And I want to talk, I'll be talking about Twitter later, or x and, and, you know. And I see the, I see the boost to grams. I know I'm a mess. I see the booster grams coming in. I see people listening. So I know they're listening to me. I thought, why don't we just thank everybody up front for a child? Okay, just now Unknown: from Nicole Adam Curry: putting the joy back in China curry, yeah, by the way. Oh, wait, what did you say? What did you say? I do think it's kind of horrible that that Tim waltz guy took your word.

6:12 Oh, I know he's using joy everywhere now all of a sudden, yeah, I don't like that so, so I'm very joyful and happy. Yes to thank our producers, okay, in the value for value, which, if you go to curry the keeper.com, a lot of people may not hear this. They may not get to the Tina Curry: end of our show. So the person who I refuse to mention, he who shall not be really happy, because when he listens to the show, the first thing he does is he searches for for his name. That's what he does, and he listens, yes, and so he shall be left unnamed Adam Curry: before anything. I want to thank Sir, Sir Patrick Scoble, the covid Scoble Coble, Sir Patrick Coble, yes. Who was the one who gave me the Bible? Yes, and I thank the guy who actually produced it, because Patrick said, I'm glad you got the Bible. Said, Wait, it came from you. He said, Yeah, is it?

7:04 But it had a whole different name on the package. Yeah, I forgot to put a gift Tina Curry: card in. Oh, dude, dude, it was so and I know his faith journey was ignited as he was listening to pastor, Jimmy Nanette, and to listening to our show. And I love that he sent you the Bible. And I had jokingly said, oh, I want one. And so he's like, I'll send her one. I said, No, I was really kidding. I really, really, it's hard to stop. He's been more more than generous for us. But I appreciate even the sentiment. But Adam Curry: if you liked one, you'd want a new, international version. Tina Curry: Carry on. Thank you, sir, Patrick, you're awesome as always, you Adam Curry: know. And I also, and I also say, I get so many notes from people, sometimes no agenda related or so, but there's so many people who love our show and really, really, and maybe we're here to do what we're doing now, maybe it's not as as, uh, as jolly as it was, because we were basically drunk.

8:01 Tina Curry: That's what I was saying to Elise. I feel like the quality of the show has gone down. Now that I'm no longer drinking Adam Curry: wine, I think the quality of the show has gone up. Yes, Tina Curry: I don't know. I don't know why. I don't know why I'm feeling and I'm feeling joyless about it. I don't know why I have to, I have to figure it out. I have to, like, because Adam Curry: I keep saying, like, well, if you look up toward like, this mountain on Wednesday, that you have to, and, of course, you do the newsletter. Tina Curry: And it doesn't help that I have somebody who texts me all the time. Don't forget about the newsletter. And it's not Dame Christina Pearl, it's somebody else. So, oh, that Adam Curry: actually hurts the cause. Yes, have to do some Tina Curry: anyway. Yes. So I know you. I know you are Adam Curry: I would not do this show if it sucked, I would say, babe, has been so much fun doing this. But you know you're no good. Yeah, I'm great. Your voice is not right. Your voice, that's the thing. Your voice is perfect.

8:59 Tina Curry: Even though you're better behind a microphone, you're better, not even in front of a microphone. Adam Curry: I love i By the way, do I have big ears? Tina Curry: No. Adam Curry: Are you sure? Look? Let me see, because I was looking in the mirror just a minute ago. They're not small. Well, Tina Curry: they're in proportion to Unknown: your head. Okay, your Tina Curry: holes are big. Adam Curry: I got big holes. Unknown: Get big holes, big holes. There Adam Curry: it is. All right, we already have a title for the show. That was easy. Boy, no, Tina Curry: but you don't have big ears. They're in proportion to your head, because Adam Curry: sometimes, on no agenda, make fun of other people. You know, are you always and I was thinking, look at the plank in my own eye. These ears are huge. I'm like, hold on. I can't see. I can't see. So anyway, I just want you to know that I think for whatever reason, we're doing this podcast, and I know a lot of people at church listen. No, I know for sure and but a lot of people have reconsidered their faith. I Tina Curry: know of this podcast, and I had a talk with God when I was walking Phoebe, and I'm like, Okay, it's Adam Curry: just a great time to do it. But.

9:59 Tina Curry: Yes and I, and I recognize that the way that the podcast began is not really where it is today. And no, I just have to figure out why I'm just joyless. Yeah, joyless. And Fred, maybe there's a lot just going on, yeah? Well, there is, there Adam Curry: is, I need a vacation. Tina Curry: Okay, anyway, okay, thanking our cork suckers. What Adam Curry: you literally said at dinner was, well, it's hard, you know, now they don't have to work, and I got a thing that I got to do, and I'm looking at you like, Girl we've been talking to here. I got things I got created this monster did. I did. It's nice to see you retired from corporate life. Yeah, I love it. Anyway, let's thank the people. Curry the keeper.com.

There's cobwebs, there's dead scorpions, glasses Tina Curry: and broken coasters. So Adam Curry: tally it up, everybody.

And coming in from pod verse with 1981 which might be the year he was born, salty Tina Curry: crayon, oh, and he says, Adam Adam Curry: says in the evening, how interesting that the day this episode was released is the same day that MTV debuted in 1981 Oh, Tina Curry: that was Renee sent it to me too. She said, I remember this day. Yeah, Adam Curry: I some people think I was there in 19 I

18:30 Tina Curry: remember the day I worked for the cable company. And I did launch it. I worked for the cable company. Didn't you pull Adam Curry: that big red handle like MTV is now on the air, Tina Curry: but you weren't there yet. You didn't go right to 87 Yeah, Adam Curry: yeah, which was some considered to be the real MTV period. Yeah, yeah, that wine is so good, I gotta have some. Tina Curry: Like, we'll be cooking, yeah, Adam Curry: I don't know what exactly what that is, anyway, in the evening, yes, 1981 the day MTV debuted. Adam went from leather jackets to leather wrap Bibles. Oh, God must have had this plan from day one for you. Well, yes, we know. We know that. We know that is true. And he says, ktld, Tina Curry: thank you. Thank you, Adam.

19:22 Adam Curry: Isn't that joyful? It is just here people are thankful for the people listening to the show. They are listening to the show. Part of Tina Curry: it is what, you know, the newsletter, when they send you the stats, and they they just keep going down the open rates. I'm like, oh, you know. And then it's just, yeah. Just makes me joy. Well, anyway, Adam Curry: maybe you shouldn't look at them. Open Rate. I mean, I get an Tina Curry: email. Here are your stats. What's the percentage? It's down in the 50s. Now. It was at 70 now, Adam Curry: but the subscriptions have gone up. Right? It's more people, let me see. Okay? And also, people have to check them. Sure it didn't go to spam or promotions, as Gmail likes to do promotions, yes, the worst, you know, they make it very difficult for anyone to communicate through email, so people may not realize that you're saying.

20:12 Tina Curry: I guess maybe I should look at that is that it's the subscribers have increased five in the last 30 days. Okay, yeah, but Adam Curry: I can see how it's demoralizing if you see that go down, but at least email more, yeah, you know how email marketing, I Tina Curry: know, but it's still, it's like it went it's at 5555 it was 6361 60. Oh, man. Anyway, I gotta get out of my head. Yeah, serious, 69 Adam Curry: anyway, it's not all that bad. It's not half the people open the email, the other half may see it, you know. And I don't know how accurate these open rates are. I don't know, yeah, you know, when I open email, I don't send my little pixel. You Tina Curry: have to remember, though, as a communications marketing professional, KPIs, KPIs, we're all KPIs. Your Adam Curry: husband happy, good. Newsletter. Okay, that's your KPI key performance indicator, okay. K h, I key, husband indicator, okay. K h, i husband is happy. Oh, good, yes, yes, okay, but it's definitely, summer here in Fredericksburg.

21:23 It has got hot, hot, Tina Curry: but it hasn't really broken 100 which is no amazing, no, but you're wearing hoodies all the time. You wear a hoodie. You wear a December, January hoodie. Unknown: I love my hoodies. And you walk out, you're grilling in a hoodie, Tina Curry: and you're like, that's, oh my gosh, it's so hot, dude. You are dressed for December. Adam Curry: Well, in the morning is usually kind of cool. It's nice, kind of cool. It's 75 that's a nice temperature, and the hoodie keeps you cool as long as you're not out there too long. It actually works both ways. In case you didn't know, it works as a shield for the heat. Unless you're standing in front of a grill. Tina Curry: You wear black hoodies all the time in the blazing sun, because over a grill, I Adam Curry: feel like I look better for you in a hoodie inside. Not like this weakling, 70 pound weakling that I look like a T shirt Tina Curry: on. Seriously, Adam Curry: Oh, babe, kind of and I like wearing Jesus, yeah.

22:17 I like Tina Curry: J, C, D, T shirt. This is one of my favorites. Yes, but Adam Curry: I was going to say that the kind of the the longer period of heat, which it is now, came right after our shower has been completed. Yes, the shower is done. It is beautiful, Tina Curry: fantastic. Yes, Mike did a great job. And for some reason it feels Adam Curry: bigger. I know what it is Tina Curry: weird because it's actually smaller, Adam Curry: maybe a built in shelf. Yeah, that's Tina Curry: part of it, because not all the stuff is on the floor. Yeah, yeah. Adam Curry: That's true, yes, part of it, yes, it's it was Tina Curry: well worth the wait. The rug doesn't match now on the Oh Adam Curry: yes. First Lady was doing was like, hmm, you know these, these marble tops, these countertops here, they're not really the right color. No match. We need get out of the bathrobe, turn the lights down, or whatever, ttld and tltd, tltd, turn the lights down. Oh, geez.

23:20 Tina Curry: Anyway, yes, so that's done. That was good. That's been a definite. I think it was done last Wednesday too. We've been did we talk Adam Curry: about it? I said when you went to take a shower and then it was only one temperature, Tina Curry: yes, I couldn't move that. Couldn't move the valve. Randall, yes, he had to call the plumber. He had to come back out and fix it. Adam Curry: Well, I want to talk to him about our toilets, because I do have some thoughts. Our toilets are like, Tina Curry: what's wrong with them? What do you want? Well, we've Adam Curry: been to other houses, and quite honestly, do you like, I like Susie Bernard's toilet? It's like a snowmobile, that thing, man, those big snowmobile saddles, like elongated. Something about, oh yeah, it's, I don't know. I Tina Curry: don't I mean, you're tall, so just and you spend hours in there, so you might Adam Curry: as well do need me to get started, because someone has taken a little lesson from me when it comes to using the bathroom time, and I hear your reels going, and I sometimes you're in there face timing with people. You're Unknown: like Matt, even muting when you can hear I was definitely muted Tina Curry: anyway. And he said, Okay, I will ask Susie how, what kind of toilet? That's so funny that you make note of it, like, I like this Adam Curry: toilet. There was something like, that's a cool toilet. And any of these, I mean, honestly, they're just

24:53 kind of, like, literally, from Home Depot. Yeah, Tina Curry: they're American Standard. I like that. They're one piece. I like that, as opposed to having a separate tank, I like that. Yeah, I'd like them a little higher, because we're tall, yeah, Adam Curry: yeah, yeah, okay, well, I want to talk to Randall about that. Okay, yeah. And also, the one toilet seat keeps falling down no matter Tina Curry: what you tried to fix. I've tried Adam Curry: just jacked up, and so I'm just imagining people, especially men, coming in, like, wanting to use the powder room and like, yeah, to push it back. Like, yeah, using one hand for that one hand. Like, now, so anyway, Susie Bernard, I'd love to come and check out your toilet. Brother, I'm sure she'll be fine, yes, yeah, my step daughter is healing. Oh, I know Tina Curry: I'm gonna have to hang up my nurse's hat pretty soon. I mean, she says bouncing. She said to me today, she goes, Are you gonna miss me? And I go, I don't want to talk about it. I said. She goes, I'm gonna cry. And I said, Yes. I said, I don't want to talk about it right now. Has been a delight. She has been, yeah, and we've both been able to spend one on one time with her, which has been really great, man. Most importantly, she's healing so well, and she well, she is in the prayer room.

26:14 She's surrounded Adam Curry: by just a million Bibles and prayers on the walls. Everything she's been cleaned, has been blessed. I mean, this is totally like an old school hospital, with everything just God all over. Well, she's Tina Curry: been completely supported. So she went and had her two week post op appointment yesterday, and then the stitches out, and she got the stitches out, and they took an x ray, and they said she's the X ray that they said, She's healing beautifully. She can walk unassisted. She just has to keep her brace on. And he said, Okay, I want you to come back in four to six weeks. And she looked at him, she's like, I'm flying back in four weeks. He's like, why did Adam Curry: you do that? Need Tina Curry: to get home. I need and so he pushed it up for her, so she's coming in in two weeks, really, oh yes, because they have to basically measure her for a brace. So this brace is, like, custom made. Oh, I don't know what it looks like. It's not like one of Adam Curry: those Forrest Gump metal.

27:08 Tina Curry: I don't know directors. I don't think it's like that. But, yeah. I mean, this is this definitely very, very fast. So, yeah, so she's to me, she's diligent. She's doing her exercise. She's doing her exercises, her PT she wants to go. Yeah, so but yeah, it's, but also, Adam Curry: her friends have been nice, and a couple are coming by to Tina Curry: visit, yeah. And it's, it's great. It's been great having her here, really has been so we've had a lot of Adam Curry: fun. I took her to the movies, yes, and she's like, we have to go see TRAPPIST, this movie by this director. Have it a Tina Curry: habit now, Night of the Yeah, Night Adam Curry: of the Smash happen, I don't know. No, that's not even English. Tina Curry: Shama some Shama haya Shyamalan, who did six senses. Oh, yeah, I Adam Curry: think I've seen that. So I Tina Curry: said to you, you better pray over again. See this movie. You better pray over yourself before you go Adam Curry: there. It's called trap, and it's supposed to be a horror thriller movie. And we're in that, and we are literally laughing. It is so bad. I mean, there's only two, two other people in the theater, like, oh, there's four people. There was the Oh, yeah. And what was it? 1230 Yeah. And, like, this sucks. And, but, but it was funny enough to sit it out.

28:13 We're like, oh, this was the twist. And then that wasn't the twist. The twist never came it was just the whole thing was weird. But it wasn't the movie. It was we went out for we had hop doddies, and we're in the car, and she just started talking about stuff and you know, stuff that you know I won't share it on the show, you know, chat and point says, you know, I really do love you. She said, you know. At first, you know, when my mom said, you know my boyfriend, he has a podcast, she thought, I would a loser says, but you're really cool. And, you know, not a lot of step dads are cool. It's not always easy. And I was just my heart was so my heart was so Tina Curry: then she said, Hey, skirt, skirt, can we go to Nordstrom? Got your card? No, Adam Curry: she didn't know. She does that to you. She knows I'd be like, okay, yeah, Tina Curry: no, absolutely. Oh, that's really smooth. And that's all we want. All we want is a little Adam Curry: hop doddies. This was lunch, right? And so she got a chicken burger or something, and I had chicken nuggets, and we both had a big, you know, like a big fish bowl of beer and, and I'm getting ready, and she says, Don't you want to pray? Seriously? I said, Oh, wow. Yeah, sure, Tina Curry: absolutely, wow, yeah. Well, today at dinner, and she's like, No, Adam Curry: she tried, you tried to slip a good try, though, good try. I like it. Good try.

29:34 Tina Curry: I'm gonna make her pray before she leaves whatever Adam Curry: she wants. But I just, I love that. She was like, don't, don't you need to pray. I'm like, Yeah, great. Thank Tina Curry: you. That's sweet. No, it's been a good girl, Adam Curry: young woman. I should, yeah, I can only see all these kids as kids. She's eager Tina Curry: to get back to her her community, and all her friends are waiting for her. So we went to Costco today. We went to San Antonio. We had to go to Target and to TJ Maxx, the TJ Maxx in San Antonio. It can you, it's nice. But the the line, I'm not kidding you, is 50 deep every time the only wraps around one check out line. No, they have like, eight really, it's, I'm not kidding. So Adam Curry: are they just slow, or is it just, I Tina Curry: have no idea. We don't I don't usually wait. I'm not just not waiting in this line. Just don't buy anything.

30:19 You leave Wednesday afternoon at 11 o'clock in the line is nobody, nobody work. Apparently, not. They're out there spending money. But oh, so we were in. So we went to and then you went to Nordstrom. No, no, no. We went to Costco afterwards. And so we're like, Oh, we got to make sure that, you know, there's a motorized, uh, cart for her, yeah? Because it's a lot to walk around Costco, yeah, and, um, so praise God, there was one. Since she gets in, she's like, back it up. She Unknown: took one of those typical pictures where she drives by video Tina Curry: of me, because I go, can I take a picture of you? She was take a video of me, but start it, and I'm gonna drive by. And so she puts her sunglasses on. It was hilarious.

31:06 She's driving by in this, like, cart. It was fun. It was a lot of fun. Very cool. It was a lot of fun. So yes, that was our day today, but we both get to spend one on one time with her. That's good. Yeah, lovely now, and Adam Curry: we're gonna go to see it to vaudeville on Saturday. That's her friend, Caro is coming in, and Richard will love her, yes. But while we were doing the while we were seeing the horrible movie, you did an interview with Sir Timothy. Yes, I did tell me how that was. It went well, what's the name of his podcast? It's not for Tina Curry: his podcast. He teaches a class. He teaches a communications and so he interviewed me on my career as a communications person, and, you know, in high school, like, did I know? Could I write? And I said, No, you know. And then he talked about me being at the bank and the first time I had to write. And I told about the first time that I wrote the annual report, which was scary for me, because I wasn't real. I wasn't a writer. I had somebody who guided me along. And then, and then I talked about, you know, working in nonprofits, Adam Curry: high school class or, no, it's Tina Curry: college, college. Then I was talking to him about video production and how, you know, with communications, how to conduct an interview, and how, when you ask the how I'm a storyteller, and how, when you ask a question, you want the person who is speaking, who's answering the question to incorporate the question and answer that's Yes. I told about that, and I said, you know, for for just a couple tips, like, less words is better. Nobody wants a word salad. I said, get

32:36 rid of the extra adjectives. Get rid of the extra words and just make it really succinct. Remember who your audience is. Adam Curry: Did you rag on chat? G, P, T, Tina Curry: I did not. No, I did not. But he, um, it's kind of cool what he's doing, like he and I. He, so he, he has his students write a paper, a short paper, he said, maybe four pages on a topic of whatever they want. But before they finish the paper, they have to get up in front of the class and get give like, a two minute presentation on what their paper is about. And I said, I encourage them to really talk about why they chose that topic, and weave in a personal story. I'm sorry we've in a personal story. I said, Because storytelling really captivates people. And I talked about how, when I had to get up in Florida in front of these women, it was called Impact 100 and was was 100 women who donated Adam Curry: $10,000 $10,000 this is for the Community Foundation.

33:35 Yes, and I had Tina Curry: to get up and I had to present something on behalf of the Community Foundation. And I told the story about how I got my girls into giving back at a young age, when we did the peanut butter and jelly drive. And I think Brad talked about that on our previous show. And so I said, I wove that story into my presentation, I said, and it brought people tears to people's eyes, because they understood and they could relate to that. And I said, when your students get up to talk about why they chose a particular topic, personalized, exactly, exactly. Nice. It was good. The unfortunate thing with the Zoom we he the sound just kept dropping out on his end. I could hear him, but he could not hear me. I Adam Curry: mean, you were talking into the mic, right?

34:16 Yeah. And I was looking at, you know, the because I was, I was worried. I mean, I'm literally in the movie theater doing what you're not supposed to do, looking at my phone. Did she text? Did she text? I'm like, I was ready to walk out and help you. Well, here was, this Tina Curry: was the interesting thing. So I would leave the meeting, reconnect, and then he could hear me, and then it would just drop out, that is. So he didn't know if it was the connection at the school, but anyway, we got through it. It was very, I felt very flattered, and he's going to send it to me so I could hear it. Cool. Yeah, cool. And then I got to re redo the interview with Vic. Yeah. Do Adam Curry: you have a schedule for them? No, no. Tina Curry: They just got back from New Jersey. All right. So yeah, because people want to see that. People want Adam Curry: to see Yeah, we can't put Tina Curry: that piece of garbage out there. You're Adam Curry: that big. I don't know if Vic listens. No, Vic, Tina Curry: it's not your fault.

34:59 Adam Curry: My. Melissa, did you hear that vehicle was my fault? Yeah, sorry, I forgot. I forgot it was all my fault. Okay, we're on fire. Yeah, yeah, good. Tina Curry: So you want to talk about the big trip to Dallas, yeah, Adam Curry: yeah, definitely, from your perspective, I'd love to hear it, because we left Friday, Tina Curry: yes, so that my last flying experience was not good. And I think this, we Adam Curry: have to point out. Tina's like, yeah, we'll go up there. We'll it'll be great, you know, it's just a dinner, and we'll stay overnight, we'll come back. I'm like, Yeah, but you know that means we're fly, I'm flying, and we're flying in the plane. She's like, Yeah, okay, you wanted to go so bad that I think you didn't even care. Tina Curry: You know what? Though, here I in revisiting what happened? It was I, I was worried. When we talked about this. I was worried about the wind because we were sitting at breakfast and I hear the building shaking, and I'm thinking, oh my gosh, this plane is going to blow over. It's going to roll over. And so I was worried about that. And you were trying to tell me the wind is not the problem. Don't worry about the wind is not the problem. I'm like, What about a wind shear? You hear that they take down jumbo jets down anyway. So that's like, what started my fear and Adam Curry: then, and then you got the, oh, we have an alarm.

36:12 Unknown: Hold on to your hat. And here's your vomit bags. Adam Curry: Of course, it was smooth as glass all the way home. So Tina Curry: anyway, so I realized that I'll let myself get so worked up. And also this, Adam Curry: this pilot wasn't 18 years old, yeah? So we walk up to Tina Curry: the plane, I go, please don't be 18. Please don't be 18. Please don't he was 27 Adam Curry: Yeah, he looked the business, didn't he? Yes, he looked the business like, because we hadn't flown with Ed yet, like, I like Ed. Ed's a good guy, yeah, Tina Curry: yeah. And so the flight up was was good. Rose good. So we're flying, you know? And I actually fell asleep, because it's kind of, you know, Adam Curry: I know I looked like said, the passenger is asleep. Yes, we're doing a good job. But I Tina Curry: look out the window, you point, and there's a Southwest like 737 out Adam Curry: the window, almost touching. How far away was it?

37:01 700 feet. 700 Tina Curry: feet. And so Adam goes, Yeah, we got the TCAS T cast alert. I go, What? What is that? And Adam Curry: you're collision alerts. I'm like, Oh, lovely. Well, on the radio was even better because we're now it's busy, so yeah, because when a Dallas is just crazy, there's four or five airports, and we're going to McKinney. And so we're chugging along. We're doing 200 miles an hour, but we're no 737, and you hear like and and then they call us, okay, well, we're gonna let him overtake you. He'll be a little bit off to the right. And so southwest said, Yeah, we see him. And you can and we can literally see on the screen, you see, you see him coming up behind us on the on the radio, he saw you right. Oh, yeah, of course. And then, and then he's and we see him coming over to the right. And then if you're less than 1000 feet separation, you get this traffic alert. Traffic Alert is that what you heard? That's what we heard. Freaked out Tina Curry: that Adam Curry: the Southwest Airlines said we see him where we got it funny, we got a tea cast alert on him, and we're looking each other. Yeah? We got that too, and, like, we're literally pointing at you. We're waving at you. Yeah, that was, it was most Tina Curry: people would freak out. It was kind of, I wasn't freaked out. I was like, wow, that's kind of close.

38:17 Adam Curry: We're definitely in the Big Boy lane, yeah, Tina Curry: for me too, I was, I was very calm there and back, and I just, I was like, You know what? This isn't God's hands. This isn't God's hands. Like, I you know? Adam Curry: Yeah. So, anyway, so we landed at McKinney, I landed twice. Actually, yes, you bounced like, No, it's not like, Bucha, Bucha, Tina Curry: Bucha. And Ed goes, Hey, you landed twice. Adam Curry: He said, Hey, you landed on the second time. Yeah, thanks, Ed. I fly once Tina Curry: every time. I filmed it when you were landing. And, you know, did I film it when you were landing coming home? No, no, that's Adam Curry: the point. No, that was on the way over, on the way home. I'm like, no, no, no, I Tina Curry: filmed it. No, I Adam Curry: filmed it. No, you didn't. You filmed the bounce and then you posted it on social media. I Tina Curry: didn't post that bones. I said, No, I sent it to Unknown: pastor, Jim. And so then we're landing in front it was just a little thing, pink, pink.

39:15 Tina Curry: I my stomach went up to my throat, Adam Curry: stop, stop. And then I fly once three months, you know, like, I got to get used to it. How long you've Tina Curry: been a pilot for 20 years. Though it's different every time anyway. So when we're landing, coming home, and I didn't film it, or you go, I see you didn't film that, because you always smooth. Adam Curry: And I did a whole radar instrument approach and everything. I was like, we're all jitty about it. Tina Curry: Anyway, we went up there. There was a gala, there was a fundraiser for citizens defending freedom, and Pastor Jimmy Nanette invited us to sit at their table. And so we went up there, and Lara Logan spoke, and General Flynn and. I don't know who else, several people from, well, Dr Rick Scarborough and Charlie Kirk and Charlie Charlie Kirk, he Adam Curry: was the keynote. Yeah, he Tina Curry: was good. Oh, he Adam Curry: was really good. That guy can spend talk about doing a speech now, not like a teleprompter thing. No, he just got up and talks.

40:16 Tina Curry: Yeah, no, he's young. He's in his early 30s. Yeah. So he was good. No, it was really, really good. So that was good. And then you want to tell about what happened at the end, when Joe, Joe, Laura, Adam Curry: okay, so did Tina Curry: you talk about this on no agenda? Adam Curry: I did. I did, but it's that not everyone listens to no agenda, and not everyone catches all the bits. So Laura and Laura Logan and her husband Joe, were there. They live right down the road, so we know them, and I see we went up to we're gonna say hi to Laura, but she was being inundated by people, so she saw us. We just wave, say, hey, whatever. We'll see you next time. And then Joe was like, hey, hey, Adam, you gotta know Joe.

41:00 Unknown: Finger, come over. Come on. Take a picture. Take a picture. And then we're standing Adam Curry: there, and General Flynn is talking. And, you know, this is, I'm sure he gets a million of these people this all want to take a picture with him. We're like, but it was more for Joe. We're like, okay, I really need my picture with no but really, and, and so, and then it's like, I won't stand here. Listen, general Finn's Adam curry, head bangers, ball and Flynn gives me a look. I'm like, Tina Curry: I don't know what the heck you just said. Adam Curry: Okay, of all things he could have said, all the things Tina Curry: he could have said, like, he, you know, he covid, barely Adam Curry: got a chance to thank you for your service, you know. Like, didn't even get a chance that.

41:49 Tina Curry: No, it was pretty funny. It Adam Curry: was nice to be there with Pastor Jimmy, Dame Annette, Pastor Brian, with Naomi's parents living in the area. And the food was good. Yeah. We had a really lovely time. It was nice. Yeah, 500 people. Tina Curry: They were up there for they were part of the remnant Alliance, Adam Curry: three days of courses, seminars and stuff. Tina Curry: They made a lot of connections up there. And yeah, so, and then, Adam Curry: of course, so now they had been there, they went, went back on Southwest, and we flew back. Regular, yeah, regular, speedy guns. Tina Curry: We were down on the ground by what drove straight Adam Curry: to pick Phoebe picked her up. Not admit it's kind of cool. It is cool. It's not quite private jet level, but it's kind of cool to just, you know, be able to fly. Of course.

42:38 I had to climb over the over the wing. Yes, I know there's no stairs. Tina Curry: I had to lay with. You have to lift the seat forward so that you can climb to the back like a coupe. Unknown: Yeah, I Tina Curry: was saying to Lisa, I go. You know, it's, it's just kind of boring because there's nobody to talk to. I'm sitting there by myself. There's no in flight entertainment. How Adam Curry: come you never want Sirius XM. We can literally turn on news channels, music channels. You can get your you can get the message, Tina Curry: oh, I don't know. I mean, do you listen to that too? If it's turned on, is it all on the same frequency? No, we can Adam Curry: just, we can separate it just for you. We don't have to hear it. Okay? We'll have to do that next time the whenever I fly with Mitch, he has Sirius XM, yeah. And he always has music on very softly in the background. Does he likes that, you know, I don't really care. I'd rather hear the, you know, what's going on in the air around me? Yeah, not be distracted along to something. No, we could, yeah, we can totally. I mean, it's Tina Curry: so much easier than driving five hours.

43:33 Adam Curry: Did you have your noise canceling on? I thought later. Was it loud? Tina Curry: It seemed loud to me? Yeah, I didn't. Nobody told me, because, Adam Curry: at least said that to me, I thought, Oh, you might not have hit the button for noise cancel, because it should be completely quiet. Oh Tina Curry: no, oh no. Oh, now you tell me, Adam Curry: I'm so sorry. Four ears, I'm so yeah, it should be completely quiet. No, Tina Curry: no, nobody ever so sorry. No, you forget them one time, and now damage in my hand anyway, but it was a fun it was a fun quick trip. Adam Curry: It was a great trip. Yeah, and then, of course, Saturday, and then, you know? And by the time Sunday came around, I was up at five. I was tired. Tina Curry: We went to church, and then I went to Boone and Bella's fourth birthday party. Jimmy Adam Curry: was great. It was good to have him back, Pastor Jimmy, because he hadn't been in the pulpit for five weeks, four weeks, yeah, something like that. Good to have him back. And he was, he was all Tina Curry: amped up. Yeah. He was energized. Energized. Yeah, it was good. It was really good.

44:29 Adam Curry: Was good. And then, like I said, I went to the four year old twins. How was I couldn't go. There's Tina Curry: a lot of little kids there, so that I saw them in their element playing with other kids. And so we're all sitting outside eating, and we turn around and look, and there's Bella. She's taking her dress off. And so she Adam Curry: always, she's always Tina Curry: Karen's go ahead to go over there. And I don't know she had, I don't know what she did to get her to put her clothes back on, but she was ready to take all her clothes off and jump in the pool. And that's what they do. They just, they have, they just don't refuse to. Her clothes Adam Curry: to do that all the time. I remember Tina Curry: you telling me that. But the thing to me that just kind of seared my heart was they each have seared your heart, or seared like a sear on my heart, like, you know how you sear a steak, like, Adam Curry: like brandy. So it's good or not good thing. Oh, it's Tina Curry: a good thing. Um, was when they sang Happy Birthday to them. So they each had their own cakes. And I was watching Bella and Boone and the looks on their faces. It was so so precious. And, you know, you just look at them and you think, oh my gosh, if Adam Curry: only you knew what's ahead in your life. It's just so Tina Curry: innocent, you know, so innocent. They were so present to the moment, nice, you know. And it was so nice to be present for them in the moment. I mean, it was, Adam Curry: it was, I loved it. I absolutely loved it.

I'm like, Well, should I do the gunshot? Not having anything, I'm like, should I just take care of it? Yeah, okay, but a god shot did come to me. Okay, and it happened this morning, and I think I even said last night to you, I'm concerned about social media in general.

54:47 Yes, we talked about this Elon Musk in particular, yes, because a lot of people you know now that he's supporting he's Tina Curry: a cultural Christian, whatever that means. I don't know what that means, right? So. Adam Curry: Supporting President Trump, and he's talking about how, you know, he's a cultural Christian, but I have followed him for a long time, and I have my own opinion, and he's talking about AI gods, and he's all in on carbon credit. So I just don't like the idolatry of anybody, almost, but certainly not idolatry. Tina Curry: Lot of people idolize him, too. It's amazing, yes, Adam Curry: but more generally, and that's really I was talking about to you, is like, what people do on social media is completely useless. It makes no difference. It no longer gets into mainstream media. The New York Times doesn't say so and so said something on Twitter, or this went viral. It's become meaningless, because there's so many networks, and it's just a place to go and and go at each other, and I just see nothing good coming up. And this is my it just, it's been, it's been on my heart. It's been on my mind. And this morning, Pastor Jimmy sends out his devotional. And he sent to Timothy three, verse one, but know this, then the last days, perilous times will come, and which was, and he had his message was more positive than what that sounds like. But what I typically will do is I'll go and read the whole, the whole chapter, you know, and so I'm

56:18 reading, and I was just astounded, because right after that comes the following verse, two to four in these last days for men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips without self control, brutal haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure, rather than lovers of God. I'm like, wow, there's your social media right there. And then right after that, five to seven, and this is where I see Elon Musk holding to a form of godliness. Although they have defined, defined its defied his power, AVOID SUCH MEN AS THESE.

57:06 For among among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins led on by various impulses, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Cultural Christian. Wow. It just, and I was just like, Thank you, God, thank you. You put me at rest. This is all designed. This is all meant to happen. And of course, as I read on further, there will be many more. I mean, so in a way, yes, the last days, which, by the way, doesn't mean you know necessarily, in times, Jesus isn't coming tomorrow, and you never know, be ready at all times. But that and I even texted back to pastor Jim. I said, Dude, this is how I see this as you're absolutely, right, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

57:47 I'm just like, Ah, Tina Curry: I see that too, more and more on Instagram so I know exactly what you're talking about. Because right now I'm becoming more and more bored with it, because all I see is narcissism. That's all I see. I mean that Adam Curry: whole list, that whole list. I'm like, there you go. Yes, completely useless. Be aware of this. Be conscious of this. But from a more practical standpoint, it does nothing. It does not move culture forward or backward. It used to be different, if Tina Curry: anything, it pulls it makes them more divisive and totally pull down. Adam Curry: But what I mean is it's no longer a publishing platform where you could get traction with something, and then all the mainstream outlets will be talking about, it's inverted. People just talking about, oh, look at this clip from MSNBC. Look at this clip from Fox, and like it's and it's and it just spins everybody up and it does nothing. You're not going to convince anybody. You're not going to teach anybody, anything, nothing. I agree. Podcast is better. A blog is better. I'm telling you, the pulpit Tina Curry: is no getting in God's word every morning is is the way to go. You know, I don't really have a god shot, but I wanted to share this. And this is kind of vulnerable, and we've talked about this, but I do want to share it, because I want it, it, it. This was unscheduled. Yes, I don't even have a list. I am free, willing. You are today, am I? I don't know.

59:12 Adam Curry: I do have a question this week called improv, Tina Curry: but I was so I was I went to bed. This was a couple nights ago, and this was kind of on my heart, and it plagued me all night, and it was how I felt, like you, I was undesirable to you, like that. You didn't desire me anymore. And I it was starting to overtake me like and it bothered me, and when I got up in the morning, I recognized that that was the enemy, like I recognized it immediately, because there was no basis for that at all, and it was going transforming, because we've been transformed. I can see it so clear. Really now, and that's the Holy Spirit coming in, like the Holy Spirit is right there with me, and I can see how the enemy whenever you have any of those negative thoughts, and there's no basis for it, because there was absolutely no basis for this, and it was worming. It can really capture you if you don't step back and get in, you know, seek the Holy Spirit's guidance and realize that's the enemy. And I knew it, but it affected me going to sleep that night, and then through the night and in the morning, and then that's when the Holy Spirit was like, time out, time out. This was the enemy. So I just bringing that up for people, when you start going down a negative pathway and there's no there's no rhyme or reason for it. There's no

1:00:45 basis for it. Realize that it's the enemy at work just to keep you, keep you locked down, and keep you away from seeking God and finding Yes. Adam Curry: And from what I understand and what is also written, the more you're in the word, the more the closer you come to God, the bigger the Jesus freak you are, the more the enemy tries to attack. Oh, for sure. That is just so clear. For sure. Tina Curry: Wow, for sure. Yeah. So anyway, I just wanted to share that. Adam Curry: Thank you for sharing. Yeah. I mean, I already knew it. Yeah. You didn't know that I was going to Tina Curry: share it on the show. I did not. I did not, and you did. When you got up, you're like, Yeah, you're looking kind of shitty. Just kidding. There you go. And Adam Curry: then I also want to share something, oh, I beat Willy. Do Tina Curry: you need to keep a tab like, who's winning? That's Adam Curry: funny because Aubrey, who is one of the baristas, she says, What's the tally? I said, I know Willie's Still ahead, but we might want to keep school Tina Curry: you should do. You should, because this has been a regular thing. How long you've been doing this now? Oh, goodness, months and months, yeah, because you started going to church in October, when that was when I was coming back from my hiking trip, and then you met him shortly thereafter, a couple months after, probably since February. So, yeah, yeah, congrats. We should get little trophies made that you guys transfer back, and Adam Curry: that's a good idea.

1:02:12 Tina Curry: Yeah, a little trophy, like, with like a knight on it, or like a little rook, that Adam Curry: would be very cool. Yeah, I'll bring it in, and then, yeah, he takes it. He'll get a kick out of it. Anyway, you get a kick out of it. All right. Tina Curry: Question of the week, this one, I did not Unknown: do. No, I did it. Time. Tom wants to get everybody for the question of the way Tina knows, because, of course, she Adam Curry: already made it up, so she has her answer. So it's really just another way to embarrass me.

1:02:54 Tina Curry: Oh, it's to give people insight into your past. Adam Curry: Well, that to my past, yeah, because there's always questions. Typically, we already know. I don't think you're desirable. I mean, what more do you need to know after that, baby? If I can just stop the show for a second, you Tina Curry: don't even have to say that was all the enemy. I know. I know. I know. Okay, yes, when you were a child, did you commit any crimes and what were they? Adam Curry: Oh, yes, okay. Well, what a defined child. Oh, young, Tina Curry: you know, under 18. Oh, okay, yes. Oh, Adam Curry: breaking and entering. Oh, did we tell this? Did you tell the story? I don't think so. What? Well, so there was this warehouse, and it lived in this, we lived in this little village, and there was this, and we were and we were just outside all day long. We were riding ponies, horseback, bear back. We were, you know, shoveling poop. We were working in rows nursery, you know, we were around. We had boats with outboard motors. We had motorcycles that we welded together. It was a very it was a cool time. And there was this shed near the gas station, up on the dike, like a warehouse. And in it, how old are you?

1:04:07 Tina Curry: 1312? 13. Adam Curry: And in it was all this old army stuff. There was a guy who collected World War Two army stuff, trucks, tanks, wow. Just all kinds of stuff. And we decided we're not, we're gonna go in and we're gonna look, we're gonna break and enter. And we had it all planned out, and we had ropes and we had lights and we had backpacks. It was like, just all black, and totally it was like, Mission Impossible. We snuck out, you know, we removed a skylight, and we repelled down. And we didn't, we basically just, you know, just looked around and, you know, there was some you Unknown: repelled down, yeah, with a rope.

1:04:51 Adam Curry: It was, like, it was like a dumb, dumb, we were a complete and a mission, impossible stuff. We didn't take anything. We just wanted to see what we have. They were just sitting in the tanks and turning the lights on because the batteries of stuff was working. Wow, turned on transmitters and see if anything worked. And I remember that, like two weeks later. There's a little blurb in the paper that there had been a breaking entry in the shed, in the in the in the collectors play. We didn't take anything but, and I remember we all went, oh, so, yeah, that's funny that that just came to mind, breaking and breaking and entering into the into the surplus army collectors floor. Yeah, so that was a crime? Yes, that Tina Curry: was definitely a crime. Ask Adam Curry: that question again. I got many more Unknown: How about you, darling, Adam Curry: what kind of crime would you commit? I Tina Curry: was a thief, let Adam Curry: me guess, store theft. Yes, Tina Curry: yeah, two incidences. So my mother, when we were young, like probably five six, would write a note, please give my daughter one pack of balls. Oh. Kent, 100 Pat Allen, wow. She Adam Curry: was telling you at five to Unknown: go, fire, smoke, maybe, was Tina Curry: maybe a little older, maybe seven. So she would give us money. And so what I would do, I would go, I would bring a paper bag with me, and I go, and I like thought it was just being really cool. And I grab some candy, and I'd go around to the back and I'd put it in the bag, and I would just

1:06:25 walk out, like, Adam Curry: bubble gum or something. What kind of, I don't Tina Curry: know, like, two things. I would just put it in the bag and, like, Adam Curry: and you had, so you had your cans, and then, and you, yeah, yes. Tina Curry: And so then I did it once. I think I did it twice. The third time I'm putting the candy in the bag, and the pharmacist, it was Roy's pharmacy. Roy, Roy came grab my arm. He's like, What are you doing? You're stealing from me. And I was like, well, Unknown: he called the police, awesome. They hand they threw me in the back Tina Curry: of the car, handcuffed Unknown: me back to your mom's house. Well, they're Tina Curry: like, where do you live? And I had my bike inside to ride my bike, and then when I got home, the cops were like, yeah, she was stealing candy from Royce pharmacy. And he doesn't want to press charges, but he wants you to know, I wish I got spanked. Like, Adam Curry: yeah, but I wish they still did that. What? Oh, I Tina Curry: know we wouldn't have the issues. Now you can steal up to Adam Curry: nine. I mean, that's what, that's exactly what it was like, like she got caught. You know, the cops would come to your door and they'd have a chat with your parents, and you get in trouble. Yeah, Roy's Tina Curry: pharmacy was there for, I mean, it was right down the street. But yes, we'd have to buy and then when I was a teenager, I remember we would steal jewelry from the department store. We'd go to the goodmar Mall, never shop. And you know what? It wasn't because I wanted it. It was the thrill of it. And so I shop that I was probably 13. It was done. I never stole from now. I would never do that. Never. I know. I know I did Adam Curry: something cool. I repelled down.

1:07:56 Unknown: I was you repelled my paper bag. I was a cat burglar. I will use my paper bag. Hey, this was joyful to me. Yes, it was joyful. Tina Curry: I enjoyed myself. Thank you. We'll Adam Curry: have a lot to talk about next week. Tina Curry: Oh, we will. I love you. I love you too, baby. We'll Adam Curry: see you next week. Everybody remember curry in the keeper.com? Send us some value. Send Tina an email. Hey, Unknown: Keeper, yeah, curry the keeper. You
