Hey you Baby Boomers, Generation Jonesers and Gen Xers! Are you all getting nostalgic about anything? Are you searching for something from the 60's, 70s or 80s that you have not been able to find or remember? Have you started purchasing things from your childhood? Listen up as I tell some fun stories about running across many things from my childhood.
In this episode, Curtis takes a trip back to his junior college days at Northern Oklahoma College's Markley Hall, where a group of mischievous friends known as the "Markley Angels" kept campus administrators on their toes. From dorm-room shenanigans and campus adventures to lifelong friendships, Curtis shares memories from one of the most fun chapters of his life. Then, 45 years later, an ordinary walk on an Enid tr...
In this episode, Curtis dreams up the ultimate retro retail shop: Zoinkies! Retro Fun Shop — a colorful pop culture time machine filled with 60s, 70s, and 80s treasures. From lava lamps, lunch boxes, vinyl records, arcade games, comics, retro candy, posters, t-shirts, groovy art, pottery, and macramé, Curtis imagines a store built around nostalgia, creativity, and the simple joy of saying, “I remember th...

In this episode, Curtis Tucker takes a hard look at what it really means to “not let the old man in.” Inspired by the famous Clint Eastwood line that became a Toby Keith song, Curtis talks about delaying old age by staying active, curious, creative, connected, and willing to keep trying new things. From walking, working out, going to concerts, learning new technology, grooming better, standing taller, an...
A surprising opportunity recently made me stop and take a closer look at who I am, what makes a person memorable, and why we often underestimate our own stories. In this episode, I reflect on the vulnerability of putting yourself out there, the disappointment of not getting the thing, and why I’m still glad I took the shot. At 63, I’m more convinced than ever that we should remain available to life and k...
In this episode, I talk about how I accidentally became a familiar face around Enid, Oklahoma. From starting Enid Buzz as a small local blog in 2005, to rebuilding it after my website business collapsed, to posting daily videos, covering events, and showing up online year after year — it all added up. I’m not famous, but thanks to consistency, local coverage, sunrise videos, tornado footage, and a whole ...
Enid, Oklahoma was struck by a tornado on Thursday, April 23, 2026. The National Weather Service officially rated the Enid tornado an EF-4 with winds of 170–175 mph, carving a 9-mile path at 500 yards wide.
This is the Thursday Tornado Adventure because when you live in Oklahoma in the spring, there could be a Saturday Tornado Adventure, a Monday Tornado Adventure, etc. So normally this is not out of the ...
There’s a funny thing about life: most of the time, the best moments aren’t the big dramatic ones. They’re the little surprises. The tiny wins. The unexpected bits of joy that sneak into an ordinary day and suddenly make it feel a whole lot better.
Tonight’s episode is about those moments. The simple things that can instantly lift your mood, make you smile, or remind you that life still has pl...

Have you ever been scammed on Facebook or had someone at least try to scam you? I normally skip that stuff because it's so obvious and just delete. But this weekend I thought I check out what the latest scam was all about. Listen as I describe the scammers tactics and how I left them hanging for hours all weekend long. This is sweet revenge for anyone that has had to deal with one of these lame scams. My anti-scam l...
It’s funny how we all carry around a quiet list in our heads.
Not a bucket list… the opposite.
A list of things we’ve never done.
Some of them are intentional. Some just never happened. Some we’re oddly proud of. Others… maybe we’ve avoided for reasons we don’t fully understand.
But here’s the thing—people hold onto these “nevers” like a badge of honor....
Some things disappear with a bang. Everybody notices. Everybody talks about it.
But then there are other things that just slowly fade away.
No big announcement. No farewell tour. No official last day. They’re just there one year, less common the next, and then one day you realize they’re basically gone.
That’s what happened to a lot of the little everyday things many of us grew up with. Not giant hist...
People are fascinating. We all have our routines, our little habits, and our own strange ways of enjoying life. But every once in a while, you hear about something someone does and think, Wait… people actually do that? Not bad things. Not crazy things. Just quirky, unexpected, harmless little side quests that make life more interesting.
That’s what this podcast episode is all about.
These are the kinds of...
In this episode I’m talking about the story behind my ultimate 70s tribute song, ‘These Were the Seventies.’ What started as little memory notes and fun 70s references while I was writing my book slowly turned into a full song. This tune is packed with the sights, sounds, and goofy little details people from that era will remember instantly. In this episode, I’ll share how the song came toget...
There’s a certain kind of person who sees an empty domain name and doesn’t just see a URL — he sees a storefront, a cartoon character, a product line, a movement, maybe even a media empire.
That’s been me for over two decades.
Today we’re doing 80s movies everyone should see at least once. Not “the best films ever made,” not “deep cuts,” but the iconic, can’t-believe-you-haven’t-seen-it kind of movies. These are the ones that shaped pop culture, launched careers, defined genres, and basically taught a whole generation how to talk, dress, dream, and occasionally overreact in slow motion.
I’ve ...
Todd and I are on the edge of a huge milestone: The 70’s Buzz Podcast is about to hit one million downloads.
In this special episode, I rewind the tape and go from growing up in Enid in the 1970s (long summer nights on W. Broadway with the neighborhood crew) to my early days of blogging and experimenting with podcasts way back in 2005.
You’ll hear how a “let’s try something” idea turned i...
In this episode, I talk about 22 things I’ve kept from my childhood! Many items are nearly 50 years old and still packed with meaning. From magic tricks and marbles to comic books and cassette tapes, these aren’t just keepsakes. They’re time capsules, each one tied to a memory, a feeling, or a moment that never quite left.
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.
