10 Times I Didn’t Know What I Was Doing — But It Worked
When I look back, none of these moments felt brave or strategic at the time. They felt uncertain. Awkward. Sometimes impulsive. In most cases, I had no idea where things would lead.
But every one of them led somewhere.
There are songs you like.
There are songs you remember.
And then there are songs that don’t just play — they transport you.
These are the songs that don’t fade into the background. They drop you right back into a specific moment, with a specific person, in a specific place. No warning. No warm-up. Just instant time travel.
This episode is about those songs.
I eat at a local sandwich deli in Enid about four days a week on average.
That might sound strange at first, but think about this: where do you get your morning drink—coffee, soda, tea? Is it usually the same place? Most people eat nearly the same thing for breakfast every single day. Lunch really isn’t any different.
Listen up as I make my case for this daily routine.
Fifty years ago, being a kid in the early-to-mid 1970s felt like living in a different universe. In this episode, I take you back to banana seat bikes, skateboards, and disappearing for hours with nothing but a “be home when the street lights come on” rule. We’ll talk about three-channel TV with no remotes, heavy wooden console sets, TV trays and TV dinners, one wall phone for the whole house, and how long-distance calls actually m...
What happens when a curious 70s kid (that’s me) grills his Chat Bot AI co-host with 20 rapid-fire questions—and the AI talks back?
In this episode of the Zoinkies! Podcast, I hit Scooby AI with everything from music and monsters to manifesting and million-dollar dreams. No prep—just me asking questions and Scooby answering in real time, out loud.
It’s weird, fun, a little ridiculous, and totally worth a listen.
Tune in, laugh a little...
Hey Zoinkers and Shagheads, it’s Curtis back with another blast from the past. Lately I’ve been hooked on a new rock rebel named YUNGBLUD — the singer’s got the swagger, the attitude, and that raw 70s rock star DNA. It got me thinking about the legends who set the stage, the ones who defined what “rock star” even means. So Todd and I threw down our own list of the top 20 rock icons of the 70s on the 70's Buzz Podcast — and the...
On the latest episode of the Zoinkies! podcast, I did something a little different. Instead of diving into retro pop culture or regular stuff, I took a personal trip down memory lane. Literally.
September 2 has come and gone many times over the years, but I decided to make this one special. I opened up Facebook Memories and pulled together moments from past September 2nds, letting them guide an honest, heartfelt look at what a day i...
There’s just something magical about a lazy summer Saturday afternoon—the kind where you’ve got nowhere to be, the sun is blazing outside, and the box fan is humming in the background. That’s the perfect time to plop down on the couch, kick back with a cold drink, and dive into a movie filled with adventure, mystery, and maybe even a monster or two.
This list of my Top 20 Summer Adventure Movies is all about that vibe. The...

I am just barely scratching the surface of AI and decided to see what would happen if I asked my ChatGPT to write this episode. So, my ChatGPT assistant—Scooby AI - did his thing! From the AI’s point of view, listeners get a behind-the-scenes look at what it’s like to collaborate with a human bursting with 70s nostalgia, big ideas, and endless creativity. Hear how Curtis and Scooby work together on podcasts, books, t-shirts, and mo...
Think back to the 70s and then look at the world today. Whod’a thunk? Here are 50 things that I never would have believed about today if someone had traveled back in time and told me.

This episode is about three events that were just weird timing. Were they just manifestations, synchronicities or just good old fashioned coincidences? Part one is about manifesting something, part two is about a crazy coincidence and part three is just bad timing (getting hit by a deer). #manifesting #synchronicity #timing
Over the years I feel like I’ve been doing certain things for a reason, I’ve just never known what those reasons were. Now I’m beginning to put my own interpretation to all of those events that have been happening around me.
