Send a text 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 into a real studio, real microphones, and eventually a weekly show that’s become part of our li...
Send us a text 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.

Send us a text 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. Support the show
Send us a text 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. Support the show
Send us a text 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. Support the show
Send us a text 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 mattered. You’ll hear what it was like when smok...
Send us a text 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, and see if Scooby can keep up! Support the...
Send us a text 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 then I decided to double down and drop the full list he...
Send us a text 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 in my life really looks like—through the years,...

Send us a text 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 more—plus some funny moments, life lessons, and a...
Send us a text 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.

Send us a text 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 Support the show
