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 trail leads to an extraordinary reunion with someone who helped shape those unforgettable years. It's a heartwarming story about friendship, nostalgia, aging well, and the surprising ways life brings people back together. #northernoklahomacollege #markleyhall

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 that!” It’s part business idea, part memory lane, and part reminder that sometimes the best parts of the past are worth bringing forward. #70s

Yes, I'm 63 and I went to see Yungblud! Listen to the podcast and find out how my Yungblud weekend in Dallas went. I made it to the concert on Thursday, May 28 and then spent the weekend with friends. I give you my take on Yungblud's performance and where it fits on my scale of concerts.
I'll also rundown some of the other things we did over the weekend. Keep planning things, doing things and staying connected! Like Yungblud says, "Don't forget to live!"
FYI, I've decided to to a separate video with just the weekend and Yungblud concert footage in it. That will be posted on the Curtis Tucker YouTube channel.

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, and staying engaged with an audience, this episode is a reminder that getting older is automatic — but becoming old is something we can push back against every single day. #lifeover60

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 keep asking, “Why not me?”

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 lot of Facebook posts, people around town now recognize me as “the Enid Buzz guy.” #enid #oklahoma

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 ordinary.
What was out of the ordinary on Thursday, April 23, 2026 was that this tornado was heading for the hometown of Curtis Tucker who was out live streaming it as it was happening. Here are the details of what happened that day. #enidtornado #enid #tornado #oklahoma

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 plenty of good stuff tucked into it. Some of these are small, some are nostalgic, some are oddly specific, but almost all of them are the kinds of things that make you stop and think, “Yep… that just made my day.”

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 lasted from Thursday night until Sunday morning when I got tired of playing with them. This is a hoot!

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. Not in a bragging way, but in a this is who I am kind of way.
So as you read through mine, start building yours in your head.
You’ll be surprised what shows up.

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 historic moments. Not major inventions. Just regular pieces of life that used to be woven into our routines. They were in our homes, our cars, our stores, our neighborhoods, and our weekends. They helped shape the look, sound, and feel of ordinary life.
Some of them were practical. Some were fun. Some were tacky. Some probably needed to go. But taken together, they gave everyday life a texture that feels very different from the world we live in now.
Here are 25 everyday things that have quietly disappeared.

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 things people do that are a little out of the ordinary—using places for purposes they weren’t exactly designed for, turning everyday moments into little adventures, or simply finding fun in ways the rest of us may have never considered. Once you start thinking about it, the world is full of this kind of off-label living.
Here are 20 quirky things people do that you may never have thought 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 together, explain some of the lyrics, and play a little of it so you can hear where it’s headed.

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 seen every one of these multiple times, and if you’ve missed a few, you’ve just got some fun homework.

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 lives since 2017. We talk about the early projects (CurtisTucker.com, E-Talk, radio spots, livestream adventures), the wild Broadway Tower rooftop supermoon moment that helped launch our first studio space, the bumps we hit (including a building fire that shut us down for a while), and the decision that changed everything: stop doing random shows and go all-in on one subject—growing up in the 70s.
As of February 12, 2026, we’ve released 429 episodes and we’re sitting at 998,792 downloads with listeners all over the world (especially the US, Australia, Canada, and the UK). We also share what’s working best (our 70s song episodes) and where people listen most (Spotify, iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music).
This episode is a celebration, a behind-the-scenes origin story, and a thank-you to everyone who’s been along for the ride. One million is happening like, any minute now.

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.Support the show

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.
