She can keep in the line, everything's fine, you got all that you need, we're Curry and a Keeper.
Yeah, Curry and a Keeper.
Wednesday, January 7th, 2026, this is episode 146.
Curry and a Keeper.
And hello, my queen.
It's been a while since we've been seen.
something like that hey how are you haven't seen you for a few months you know how you doing i'm
doing pretty good oh wait what is this i mean i just figured i'd roll something out so we all
can remember that we're back temporarily hey you did a lot of work today that's all the work i did
that's pretty much hey so here we are yes we are back in the saddle welcome to curry and the keeper
I actually noticed that I'm not quite sure what happened because I was looking at our rundown to see exactly what episode it was.
Yeah.
So we were supposed to do episode 146 on...
September something, right?
No.
November 31st.
Really?
1031.
No, that's October.
I'm sorry.
No.
Yeah.
No, no, no.
We did, our last show was 145 on October 15th.
Yeah.
Yes, you're right.
I'm sorry, what'd you say?
You are right, Mr. Curry.
I'm right.
You are right.
I'm right.
So it's been, where have you been?
It's all, you know, it's because of you.
Where have you been, babe?
That's not fair, man.
You've been busy, man.
Well, we've all been busy.
Maybe we should explain what happened.
What happened?
Why did the show stop all of a sudden?
Why did it just go away?
Why?
It's because it was hard to get you to commit.
Yes.
For a little, and I'll say.
Rested on my shoulders.
A lot of that had to do with the Wednesday night.
Yes.
Walking with Jesus discipleship journey, which is at the church.
And so that was, that's kind of the only night that it really worked for some reason to do a Wednesday night recording.
We had always done Wednesday night recordings.
And so then the class started and we were in, I won't forget this.
it was October and we were in a class and it was going long.
And I looked at you and I'm like, it's still going on.
It was 745.
And by the time we get home and start the show, it's like 815.
And then you're talking 915, 10 o'clock.
And then I have to get to bed on time because I'm getting up for the show on Thursday.
But also it was just late.
It got too late because doing it right after dinner, what you're doing now,
is the way to go.
Exactly.
But we were going to run into this problem because WWJD starts again next Wednesday.
So we have to figure out how we're going to do this.
Because we need to come back at least twice a month, I think.
Twice a month?
Oh, are you surprised?
Well, so at the same time, what happened is Pastor Jimmy and I decided that it was time for us.
My throat is.
Drink some wine.
Oh, yes.
What are you drinking, by the way?
Thank you.
I am drinking.
This I got from Mike.
Our good friends, Jill and Mike.
Jill and Mike.
This is the 2020 Zinfandel.
It's called Driven.
Oh, and you like it, huh?
Yeah, I do.
I hear my voice.
It sounds weak.
It sounds like on the top here.
Yeah.
Hey, maybe I could just talk like this.
It'd be better.
It's probably because you're 61.
But anyway, go ahead, Kara.
Listen, the one thing you don't want to happen to me is my voice going out.
Then we have a real problem, Houston.
Then I'd have to take over the show.
Yeah.
Well, you could just run the board.
Anyway, go ahead.
Nothing has changed as everybody can hear.
It's exactly the same annoyance as it was when we stopped in October.
So, no, I think we should probably do the show twice a month.
And then we'll see how we're feeling it.
I also felt like people stopped listening.
You know, I just felt like we weren't.
They didn't stop listening.
They stopped sending donations.
And stopped reading the newsletter, too.
Did they really?
Yes.
And also, maybe it's just too much.
Maybe weekly was just too much.
Maybe.
We're just like, here's our week and here's what we did.
And my husband is a dentist and everything's wonderful.
My husband is a dentist.
I don't know where that comes from.
But, you know, so that was part of it.
And the pastor, Jimmy and I, we really had been thinking about doing a podcast for, I don't know, two years.
Yes.
And so we started that.
We get to do this.
Yes.
Which I'm doing on Wednesday, Wednesday morning.
So you can tell my voice is all stressed out now.
I know.
I think maybe it's, I don't know what it is.
but I have to have to figure out.
Maybe need more licorice.
Thank you very much.
We'll get into that.
We'll get,
we'll get into that.
It's on my list.
You're pointing at me.
You're doing,
you're doing bird hands.
So that means you have,
what's that?
You've never seen that on the TikTok videos.
Let me tell you what's going on.
Whoa,
there goes my mic.
I hear people,
they,
they tap on,
they do that with their nails.
No,
that's,
that's annoying.
Yeah.
But when,
when women are talking,
bird hands,
am I doing bird hands?
Close.
you have a finger wagging at me and you look at your screen.
You go like, no, we'll talk about that later.
Okay.
I'm just going to roll with the flow.
Okay.
Let me write that down.
Cause that might be a bird hands.
Yes.
Bird hands.
Okay.
Yes.
So lots to cover, but I mean,
I don't want to go over the minutiae of our life of the last three months.
So let's just head right into Christmas.
Well, the first thing is we're okay.
Everything's okay.
We love each other more than ever.
There's nothing wrong.
We love you all.
We missed you.
We got all your emails.
Yes, and thank you, especially David Wicker, who said, get back on the mic.
There were a couple people who were like, get back.
I had Dutch people emailing me.
Hey, get back on the mic.
Get you back on the mic, man.
And then Sir Brian just gave up.
He would be like, is there a show this week?
He almost gave up life.
He wound up in the hospital.
Our show stopped producing, and then he just went down a drain.
He had a bad case of the C.K. Sads.
Worse than that.
the CK SADS. Yes, he did have the CK SADS. Real bad. So I feel that was one catalyst to come back
and do a show. Got to keep Brian out of the hospital. I got a message from somebody I went
to high school with, Karen. I know she's listening to this. And I was so delighted to hear that she
has been listening to our podcast. And she said that she was happy that we were coming back.
I went to high school with her. Wow. That's like years ago. Well, the assistant director
on Countdown when I was 19, 20.
Yeah.
She turned out to be a listener.
Really?
And she is actually rediscovering her faith
based upon the show.
Oh, I love that.
Henriette.
Henriette?
Henriette.
It's Henriette.
Henriette.
Sounds French.
Henriette.
Yes, it is.
Yeah.
Well, just say yet.
Yet.
And so she emailed me.
She says, happy new year.
Get back on the mic.
Yes.
What's up with you?
But as multiple people.
Yes.
And I'm sure my sister Willow will be very happy.
She posted it on Instagram.
Oh, she did?
Very happy.
Oh, okay.
Because you sent out a newsletter.
Thank you.
It was beautiful.
Our little matching pajamas for Christmas.
Yes.
So you take the lead, baby.
I'll just fill in with my usual candor.
I'm running the show as usual.
Patented humor.
Now you can see why I got a little tired because I'm running the show.
Uh-huh.
um christmas it was a very special christmas because your daughter and her boyfriend kevin
came into town yes and i and they were with us for nine days and so we they wanted a true american
christmas experience and that's what we gave them boy did we ever and fredericksburg texas is the
place if you want a true old school american christmas with all the fixings of course it's
german so there's there's a little bit of extra extra slant to it yes uh but our our main street
is completely Christmas vibe.
We had church services with Christmas songs,
Christmas worship songs,
and also some traditional songs,
which they attended with us.
Christmas Eve service, yeah.
The Christmas Eve service.
Did we have a party?
Well, we missed one party
because they were not feeling well.
Yes, yeah.
But the big news of their visit is
they actually helped clean up every night.
They did?
Yeah, come on.
Especially Kevin.
Kevin's like over by the dishwasher.
Like, I'm helping here.
I'm helping out.
So Christina doesn't eat a lot of beef.
And, you know, we're huge beef eaters.
So we had to accommodate her and get some chicken.
And we got some salmon.
And so I was making a picana.
Oh, yeah, picana.
And we asked Kevin, I bought chicken breast.
And I don't personally like chicken breast.
It's dry.
It tastes like shoe leather when I cook it.
and so i said kevin can you can you cook for christina can you cook it because i don't want
to be responsible it's awful he's like sure so you're making the picana i'm making all the other
stuff with it let me let me give you the i walk in with a picana and i and i'm just like what's
going on no i was standing next to him he had pulled out all the spices and he's just spicing
everything up cayenne pepper crushed red pepper and it got in my throat and i started coughing
and then you walk in the door and you start coughing.
I'm like, what's going on?
My eyes hurt.
What's happening?
And then Christina was on the couch and she walks over.
She starts coughing.
So apparently cayenne pepper in Texas is a little more potent than in Rotterdam.
And it was, that thing was smoking hot.
Yes.
She ate it though, didn't she?
No, she could not eat it.
Christina couldn't even, because she can eat spicy stuff.
No, she could not eat it.
Oh, poor Tyke.
But yeah, so I mean, yeah, I mean, that was funny than when that happened.
But yeah, we spent a lot of time playing Skippo.
Yeah.
I think we watched two Christmas movies and the rest of the time we played Skippo.
Yes.
And I think Skippo was invented in Texas.
Was it?
I believe so.
It is a fun card game.
Yeah.
I told Pastor Jimmy, he's like, oh, Skippo.
I haven't heard of that in years.
I think Jill said that too.
Yeah, I play Skippo.
I'm like, we're going to have to play.
It was fantastic.
Yes.
uh except for the fact that you were overly competitive and uh and kind of maniacal
but also i think you won i think you no i didn't didn't christina win who won the it wasn't me it
was i think it was christina i won two games we got like 30 points or something it was it was
horrible i was on i was on a streak i won i won the first two games then we played monopoly and
i wiped the floor with everybody that was that was pretty scared you kept reminding me i gave
you the railroads no no i gave you the railroads yes every time i advised you oh you advised me
i'll do you a deal and you really you can't go wrong with the railroads and i was right you
couldn't go wrong with the railroads that built your empire and then like it's the slum lord that
you are you just wiped everybody out and trampled us under the under your boot your boot heel and
ground us into the dust with while smiling i know i got a little cocky i got a little cocky
And Christina's like, we need to switch chairs.
Oh, yeah.
It's the chairs.
So we switched chairs, and I didn't win anymore.
And I think she ended up winning the Skipbo Championship.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It was just a wonderful time.
I loved that they went with us to church, both services for the Christmas worship and Christmas Eve service.
And they got to meet a lot of our friends.
They did.
And so they got to experience our life, you know?
Yeah.
And they seemed to enjoy it.
Yeah.
And it went by way faster than I thought it would.
It did.
It went by fast, but it was really a lot of fun.
And my dream is that all the girls are here sometime.
I said, if they do do that, we're getting them a hotel room.
Well, there's that new Hilton that's going up.
It should be ready by the time we organize this.
2027, maybe.
I don't know about this year.
You got to start a year in advance with these people.
I know.
Because they're young people now.
They're people.
They're actually like adults.
Yeah, they are adults.
That's the hard thing.
35.
I know.
What happened?
I know.
When did I wake up and I have a 35-year-old daughter?
What happened?
I know.
Where'd that go?
I know.
And I was, somebody had asked to see a picture of Christina's mom.
And I went, remember I went online and I typed in Adam Curry and your ex-wife's name.
And that video came up of you holding Christina as a baby.
Oh, yeah.
When she was like, no, she must have been less than a year.
Yeah.
She was probably about four or five.
No, she was like four or five months.
Yeah.
She was little.
She was a cutie.
Yeah.
she sure was so it was a beautiful christmas yeah it was and then we went new year's eve we went to
andrea and david's house we had um an early dinner it wasn't really that early i mean and
we i overindulged we had so much rich food no kidding no the whole week the whole week i gave
up i'm like i'm just gonna do everything i'm gonna drink i made a ton of gingerbread cookies
I know. You just kept telling me I'm going to die. My AC1
or whatever. I'm going to be diabetic.
I'm going to keel over. My legs are going to fall off.
Your feet, they're going to cut off your feet. They're going to have to cut off my feet. You're just
scaring me. You're a sugar addict. Yes.
We got to do something about that. We got to bring that in.
We need the producers to stop sending me goodies.
Yes. That's the number one problem. Like boxes of Dutch licorice.
So Loose from Hilo.
Speculas.
Speculas, very good.
So Loose from Hilo.
It started with the, I think it was.
Yeah.
Oh, who sent you the licorice?
From Veronica TV.
The woman.
Yes.
From catering.
I don't know.
I don't know if it was Tony or it was from the production.
Caudillin Bordevac.
I think she's the one that sent it.
They're friends, so I get confused easily.
But then I guess we were talking about, I don't know where we were talking about, maybe on no agenda.
And then Luce from Hilo, she was on vacation in the Smoky Mountains, brought bags of Dutch licorice and the Spekulas, shipped it from the Smoky Mountains to our P.O. box.
And how incredibly thoughtful is that?
That she thought, I've got to pack this because I'm going to mail it to Adam in the States.
Yes. And so when I have stumps instead of feet, I shall thank her again.
Your Dutch friends. All your Dutch friends.
But you're interesting because you're one of the few Americans I know ever who are like, oh, this is kind of good stuff.
And whenever I went to the trough, you're like, I want some.
Exactly. I know. I like it because it's not super sweet.
No, no. It's salty.
Yeah, it's got that savory, salty, sweet taste. I do like it.
But they need to stop sending that because you're inhaling it like a Hoover.
I mean, I can eat a bag a day of that stuff.
I know.
And I like how you go to the cabinet, you quietly open the jar.
And I put it in my hoodie.
And you put it in your kangaroo pocket of your hoodie.
And you think that I don't see it.
No, I know you do because you're like, what are you eating?
You got such a sheepish look on your face.
And then you hold your hand out.
You're like, I want some.
I'll take one.
I want some.
But so anyway, heading back to New Year's Eve.
So we started off with champagne.
Then we went into caviar.
With bellinis.
With bellinis and the creme fraiche.
Creme fraiche.
And then we had, then we went into wine.
And then we had a rich dinner of filet mignon.
I was very, I was not drinking a lot.
You, you, when you said in the afternoon, I think I have to get tipsy.
I'm like, oh boy, I know how this is going to end up.
Tina meet Bill.
gates and i didn't bill gates though no but i woke up in the middle of the night i was actually
hot i was sweaty i'm like i gotta get out yeah because we had a glucose went on the couch and
you know i'm like i just read some scripture this will help me get back to sleep like
door opens you're like what are you doing i don't feel good yeah like i don't feel so good
And then we went back to bed and everything was okay.
Oh, I had the worst stomachache.
I can't.
And I said, I'm done with alcohol.
I'm done.
I'm giving it up.
But it was good while we ate it.
Yeah.
I'm giving up alcohol until the next soiree.
But it's so weird because the kids were here.
I call them the kids.
And it was 72, 75 degrees.
It was beautiful.
They left.
Boom.
Went down into the 30s and 40s.
And today it was 80.
We have bipolar weather here.
and then it's going to be 50s on the weekend so it's just well we needed to go down and i'll get
to that in a moment but anyway i said that um i'm gonna quit alcohol i said i'm done i'm done
drinking i'm done and i'm like oh wait you're all you're already regretting this well you know i
have that huge bottle of f and vodka cucumber vodka maybe you'll quit after you drink that maybe
i'm like you know i probably shouldn't say that i'm gonna get the wrong idea they think we're
like winos i literally have a glass of wine per evening uh what is it well on show days okay
on show days but no so i don't know wow two glasses of red wine on show days seven days a
week though i'm an alco holy co well i like it but the other day i was sick i didn't even have it
I just drank water.
Yeah.
So it's not like I can't do without it.
Yeah.
But I like it.
When we go on our church fast, are you going to give up wine?
Well, you already told me what I'm doing.
Oh, did I?
You like so we have a church fast every year January 12th For five days Yeah And Tina like what are you going to do I think you should stop this Okay No I didn say I said what are you going to do
And he said, I'm going to do what I did last year.
I'm just going to have one meal a day.
Yeah.
And I said, good.
I think you should stop sugar and alcohol too.
Exactly how it goes.
And I'm like, okay, I have no problem.
I'm actually going to fast for the first 24 hours.
Yeah.
And, yeah, I could probably, yeah, I'm going to fast for the first 24 hours.
But the whole idea is it's not just the fast.
No, it's to spend more time with God.
Yes.
Give up something.
Yeah.
So what else are you giving up?
I'm going to give up social media.
Let's just be honest.
Instagram.
Yes.
Are you going to give up YouTube too?
Yes.
I'm going to give it all up.
I'm going to just get off my screen.
Your Instagram, you're Instagramming in bed now.
I know.
I mean, you have.
And I don't know why I do that.
Let's look at your screen time.
Right now?
No.
I was gone most of the day.
I wasn't on Instagram that much.
This day.
Yeah.
You have your scrolling sessions.
I do.
And you lay on the couch.
Which is okay.
When you're over 60, you need, if you can, you need the opportunity just to lay down on the couch.
I prop up on the edge of the couch and inevitably Phoebe comes and she sits right next to me.
She's like, service me.
Within seconds.
Pet me, pet me.
She knows.
And you'll be behind your screen, and I'm on the other side of the couch,
and you're behind the screen.
You go, I'm sorry, darling.
What did you say?
Her to her.
And then I'll think you'll be talking to me, but you're talking to your phone,
like speech to text.
Yes.
Or it's very confusing.
I'm like, what?
And it's interesting because you have those new hearing aids,
and you still can't hear me.
What's up with that?
Do they have a wife tune?
They're tuned specifically, yes.
Oh, so like tune Tina out?
Come on.
it's gotten a lot better.
It has.
It's gotten a lot better.
Yes.
Yeah.
I'm very happy with the hearing aids.
I think that it's much easier,
but still there's,
there's moments when just the sound in the house,
we have a lot of sounds in the house.
Yeah.
It just,
I have to just ask you,
I'm sorry,
but then I'm not like five times like I used to be it.
Like,
do you not find an improvement?
Yes,
I do.
Okay.
I do.
Sometimes I think that you can hear me all the time though.
And potentially go,
huh?
What?
Huh?
I'm like, really? Turn them up.
Turn them up.
But speaking of apps, so in October, we had our good friends Chris and Vic here.
And they spent the weekend with us.
And we had a lovely time.
We just love them.
They're adorable.
It was a great visit.
But Vic talked you into downloading an app.
Or no, did you?
No.
The poop app.
No, that was Christina.
Oh, that was Christina.
But did you tell Vic about it?
Yes, but I have not seen him show up on my poop map.
The poop app.
Yeah.
I've talked about this.
How old are you?
13?
Listen, when I was in Holland in, what was it, April?
Yes.
Yeah.
I was with Christina and she says, Dad, you got to get the poop app.
I'm like, now first of all, like, I'm always interested.
Poop app?
Okay.
These are two words that you have my interest.
And all of her friends.
And these are all 30.
What's the name of the app?
It's called, let me see.
Uh-huh.
It's called the poop map.
So you have a team.
You have a league.
Oh, my gosh.
And so all of her friends are in this league, you know, like Aisha,
and, of course, Kevin's in it, and Lota.
And these are all 30-plus-year-olds.
But whenever you poop, you just register your poop with a funny line.
You know, you got to say, like, you know, the oldest one in the book is,
drop the kids off at the pool but the more creative you get the funnier uh-huh but it also
it's a way of just hey is my daughter alive oh she poops she's alive yes because she she diligently
records everybody diligently does this and so and so when you told vick about it it made him so happy
he's like this completes my life but yet he hasn't registered well he hasn't joined my league oh he
hasn't you got to have the league and then you get all kinds you get all kinds of badges because
it's geolocation. Let me tell you, I have all kinds of awards. I have, let me see.
You have awards?
Yes. I have the chatty pooper. That's 50 comments worth the wait. That's not, that's if you poop,
it's uncommon by the way, poop after three days, quarantine pooper, 14 days in the same place
for just like early bird between 5 a.m.
My favorite is Highlander, 500 meters above sea level.
And then I also got a special one, Jet Setter,
pooped in the airport restroom.
Wow.
Did you have to pay for that?
No, no, no, no.
How do they make their money off of that?
Who cares?
If they charge money a bit, you deserve it.
This is a great idea.
This is a great, sure, it's an American invention.
But I'm surprised.
Vic hasn't joined your league because he was so happy.
He said, quote unquote, this completes my life.
I have not seen any drops from him.
Oh, okay.
But another thing when Chris...
Wow.
I'm glad you remembered that, babe.
I got it in my notes.
That was back from October.
Oh, you've been taking notes.
Well, I had notes prepared when we were going to do the show in October.
And I looked at them and I was like, we don't need to talk about that so far gone.
But one of the things when Chris and Vic were here after they left, they said,
oh, there's a delivery coming. And, and so he ended up buying you. Why don't you tell,
like tell people what they bought. Cause you love this. Yes. And cause of course I'm,
I'm out there grilling and, and this is typical Vic, you know, like, oh, you got,
and it was literally the day they left. I think it arrived on a Sunday and it's the meter M E A T E R.
And it's two wireless probes that you put into your beef and it comes with an app and you know,
it has changed my grilling life because you don't have to,
I was always out there putting the thermometer and checking it and everything.
Now you just have those thermometers in there. It, it, it gives you the,
you know,
you tell it exactly how many degrees you want the internal temperature to be.
It tells you when to take it off, how long it needs to rest.
And it has just changed my life so much so that I immediately bought one for
Pastor Jimmy. Like this is going to change your life. Yes. It's fantastic.
Yes. Yeah. I endorse this product. Yes.
highly recommended and he loves it too right oh yeah oh it's i mean we send each other screenshots
look it looks perfect and i remember so one time adam was you were in your studio and you're like
oh no i got a flare-up i got a flare-up was that what it was called flare-up yeah and uh and it
went all orange the whole screen like what is going on and indeed it had caught fire you know
it happens a lot of a lot of grease and stuff but the lid is down so i wouldn't have even known no
Without the meat or it saved the meal.
It saved our meat.
Well, well worth the price of admission.
Yeah.
It's a great product.
Yeah, definitely.
So that's a good gift for the special person in your life that manages the grill.
Yeah, well, a little late for the Christmas holiday.
Birthdays?
Valentine's Day?
Valentine's Day next month?
You're right, Valentine's Day.
I know.
What are you going to do?
Yeah, you probably haven't even thought about it.
I have actually because I had to schedule a Valentine's Day show for one of our customers.
So, yes, I actually was quite aware of it.
Oh.
Not that I've done anything.
Yeah, I was going to say.
Hey, all I know is you want a card.
By the way, how did I do this year?
You did fantastic.
Did I do it?
I mean, besides the gift that you wanted, I got you some extra attentive gifts.
You did.
Which I thought were good.
You got me some really nice gifts, especially the gloves to wear when I do so I don't cut my hands.
I gave you a big sharp knife and then gloves so you won't chop off your hands.
What were they made out of?
chain mail. Yeah, I sent him back.
I'm not wearing these.
I saw it come through on Amazon.
I'm like, she's sending him back.
I will never wear these gloves.
I see you with that huge knife, which literally
this is a knife you can throw a tomato in the air
and it'll slice
in half on the knife. I'm waiting for me to
cut off one of my fingers.
Let me just get this
avocado pig. Chop, chop, chop.
With your left hand, which looks
completely idiotic.
Idiotic.
It feels completely wrong because it feels like, how can you have control?
You don't.
You have sliced your fingers off halfway precisely with an avocado.
Did I ever tell that story?
Yes.
And you'll be talking and you're like, pay attention to what you're doing with the very large, very sharp blade.
So you bought me the gloves thinking she'll wear these and she won't cut her digits off.
So when it happens, I'll be like, your finger's gone.
Should have worn the gloves.
sorry babe i'll be like i'll carry my finger and i did i chopped it off we need to go to the doctor

bible yes love it so much fantastic i know so much so that i wanted to share it i wanted to share it
i'm like can we share the bible so that we can we i can read the bible this year and so you would
take the bible and you'd put it in your little case and zip it up and put it away i'm like
apparently he doesn't want me to read his bible you are a horrible person i said here it is you're
like, no, no, I'll just get my own, which means you were not going to get your own.
Because this is Tina.
No, I'll just get my own.
And then you won't get your own.
No, I found a different program.
I do this.
I felt like you were being like protective.
I told you no.
But you put it in the little case and you zipped it up.
Why didn't you leave it out?
Because my daughter gave me a little case.
Yeah, but that book doesn't go in the case.
Your devotional book goes in the case.
It goes in the case.
You put it in the case and you zipped it up.
Like, stay away.
No girls allowed.
Girls suck.
Backwards S.
So I was like, I'm going to do my own.
Well, you took it the wrong way.
And I can't believe that you're bringing this out now.
Like, I did something.
You're just mean.
Mean.
Well, I started the Bible recap again.
This is going to be my second time going through the whole Bible,
my third time going through the New Testament.
You know what I really love about our Bible time in the morning?
Yeah.
So I have mine on my hearing aids.
I'm just listening peacefully.
And then Tina's Bible time is,
Hi, everybody.
Today is going to be Genesis 2.
You know what?
You know what, though?
Today I had my earbuds in.
Did you know this?
Yes.
And then I talked to you and you go, talk to the hand.
You waved me off.
I did.
Because I didn't notice that you had your earbuds and you're like, yeah.
When you, when I'm listening, I say, wait a minute.
I press pause.
Yes, darling.
What can I do for you?
I know you do.
How can I service you?
And you just go, ah, I'm listening to the word of God.
Do not speak to me.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I was right in the middle of the.
Oh, I know what it's like.
But I'm like, Jesus, I'm sorry.
I just need to pause you for a second.
my Proverbs 31 wife is speaking to me.
I'm going to listen to what she has to say.
And it's always very important.
I'm sorry.
I can't tell when you're listening to something now because they're in your hearing aids.
Where before I would always see that goofy wires in your ears all the time.
You'd have one in your ear all the time.
And I've never, I couldn't feel like I could say anything to you because you,
I didn't know what you were listening to.
But as I've always said, you are more important than anything.
So when you talk to me, I'll just press pause.
I just, the reciprocation is a little lacking.
That was just one time today.
I just started.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
Speaking of.
What's that woman's name?
Kara Tara.
Tara Lee Cobble.
From the Bible Recap.
Yes.
It's actually very good.
It's a good program.
I'm reading Job now.
Now, does she do a new podcast every year?
or is it repeated?
You know what?
This is different
because the first time I did it,
so you'd go,
she'd give you her devotional
and she'd read
and then you would do the reading.
No, she wouldn't give you
your devotions.
She'd give you an introduction.
You do the reading
and then you go to the podcast
and listen to her kind of.
But is the podcast new this year?
Is it a new podcast?
No, I listen to the podcast
but now what's different now
is there's a video.
She has a recorded video
instead of listening to the podcast.
I just watched the video.
which i kind of which is killing podcasting this video stuff well you know i kind of don't like it
her talking or it's her talking on screen yeah and i don't like it because i'd rather just listen i
don't want to watch her because then i'll be like oh i don't like that you know i don't like that her
hair doesn't like that top so in genesis i don't like that top it's interesting you say that because
the um the you version bible app that's that's pretty much a daily go-to i just like it just see
yeah yeah it's it's always short it's it's always good and it's all it's usually somebody else
i cannot watch because i have the same thing i'm like looking at how their mouth works you know
what are they wearing what colors are nail polish like i i get distracted hair is perfectly coiffed
It's like, no, hey, wait a minute.
I think I've seen you on some worship team.
Well, for Tara Lee Cobble, she's single, but she wants to be married, but she doesn't know.
She's single.
And God doesn't, she's waiting for God to bring her husband.
So I'm always looking at her like, oh.
So that's another distraction.
Yeah, so I'd much rather listen to it.
So I turn it on and I just don't watch her speak anymore.
Because I learn more by attention states.
I think in general, it's better to listen to stuff.
And you hear things that you, I mean, I hear more.
I hear more when I'm not watching.
And I'm already learning new things, even though this is the second time going through the Bible.
She was talking about the enemy and she pronounced his name Satan.
What?
Not Satan.
She said it's Satan.
What is that about?
It's in one of the videos.
I'll have to joke to you, but that's how she said it's pronounced Satan.
Not Satan, Satan.
Is that like tinnitus versus tinnitus?
I don't know.
Satan?
Yeah, that's what she said.
We'll have to ask our theologian friends about that one.
So speaking of doing the Bible and all that, we completed our love dare.
Yes, we did.
Yes.
40 days and 49.
Give us a recap, Adam.
Well, it was really great.
It was a good race.
We won.
Saw the checkered flag.
Was real happy.
So the Love Dare, which is based upon a book and a movie with Kirk Cameron.
Called Fireproof.
Fireproof.
Is really a lovely thing to do.
In the movie, the book is presented to Kirk Cameron because he and his wife are splitting up and she is not aware that he's doing the Love Dare.
He's trying to save the marriage.
Right.
Well, and of course he does because it's a Kirk Cameron movie.
It always ends good.
So doing it together was a little different than I think the intent of the whole thing is.
But I really liked it because there was so much that we already do or already are in harmony with.
And it was also good to just have some conversations in the, because we discussed it in the morning.
Like, how about the love dare?
And we talk about, you know, whatever it was.
I can't remember anyone specifically.
I'd have to bring it back.
So I enjoyed that.
I enjoyed a lot.
I enjoyed doing that with you.
How about you?
Did you have a good time?
Yes.
I thought, same with you.
I thought, boy, we're already doing this.
So I have a couple thoughts.
Towards the end, we had to write each other a letter.
Yes.
And I loved that.
I loved that.
Oh, yeah.
We wrote each other a letter.
Yes.
And it took me hours.
I know, because you're handwriting.
Did you have to soak your hand in ice after you were done?
Well, first I had to write it out, you know, so that I could then be spending less time concentrating on the words and just on getting the actual letters to connect on paper to form words.
My handwriting is so bad.
And I think I wrote two full pages.
You did.
Front and back.
I know.
And that was, it was really, that was really lovely.
Yes, I love that too.
And I have, I have your letter in my Bible.
I have your letter in my special stash.
Yes.
In the, in the.
Up in the closet.
In Pandora's box.
with all the other garbage.
With all your letters and cards and everything.
You don't have all my cards because I have a lot of the cards that I gave you
in a special card box where you don't even know where it is.
I even saved some of your Post-it notes.
Just like, when I'm gone, I want my daughter to discover this and go,
aw, she was a bully.
She made my dad do all kinds of stuff and put it on Post-it notes.
That's horrible.
You love the Post-it notes.
Hey, it's the only way I can actually get stuff done. Post-it notes are the bomb.
I know you have one that been up there for about a month now Well 72 days because that the amount of time that my car is overdue for its I know It needs to be reset I know Yes it only needs to be reset
But it's annoying me now too because it pops every single time I start the car.
Like, for 72 days over time, shall I call?
Shall I make a call?
Next, it's going to go, listen, loser.
Get this car taken care of.
Shutting down in five seconds.
But anyway, getting back to the love dare.
So I loved – so that was day 39.
And then day 40, we had to re-vow, it was suggested to rewrite your vows.
And since we had just renewed our vows, we were like, we've done that.
And it was interesting because the woman that leads the group, she wanted people to share the vows.
And a lot of people were like, no, no, I'm not sharing that.
And I thought that was really interesting because if you're renewing your vows in front of all your family and friends, you're putting it out there.
And really, it's the audience of one.
So maybe that's where people.
I don't know.
So, so I.
To each his own.
That doesn't bother me.
Yeah.
What I did like is we'd get together every, we got together three times.
Three times.
Mm-hmm.
And yeah, it was kind of a two-parter because yeah, then actually we had a really nice one
here at our house and we sat out on the porch and I lit the fire and everybody, you know,
it was like a circle.
We were holding hands, telling secrets.
Kumbaya.
But also just hanging out and everybody coming over and everyone brought food.
Phoebe was phenomenal.
She is a good dog.
That's when Nicole, one of the women that came, she said, yeah.
She goes, she's so good.
She goes, we had gone over to some friend's house, I don't know,
and we got in the house and the owner said,
whatever you do, do not make eye contact with the dog.
Don't make eye contact with the dog.
She's like, nobody could look at the dog.
No, because we'd put Phoebe on her place.
And she was there most of the night.
And she would look out the windows, just like, oh, all these people.
She would be with her back torn, turned towards us.
But then at the end of the night, you're like, come on.
And she's like, come on.
She'd sniff everybody.
Hey.
And then she laid down in the middle of the room.
She just laid down in the middle.
I'm here.
What's up?
Yeah, it was great.
No, she was really, really good.
The other point I wanted to make about the love dare.
And I had, we had.
I'm glad you remember.
Thank you for producing the show.
Oh, you're welcome.
You're so good at that.
Do I get paid?
Yeah, today.
Yeah, we got donations.
All right.
So we had gone out to dinner with Pastor Jimmy and Annette,
and I was telling them, and I was telling you about the Love Dare,
about how we are already doing a lot of this, a lot of this,
and that I felt like, yeah, we're really clicking along here.
We're doing great.
And Annette was like, oh, no, don't say that.
Don't let Satan hear it.
Don't say that.
And Pastor Jimmy kind of said the same thing.
And I said, no, I go, I understand that.
I said, but what I really feel is that going through this and recognizing it, God is, is
strengthening our faith together in our marriage because the storms are coming.
The storms are coming.
And because we're getting older, all of our friends that we have are getting older, they
are coming and he, he wants to just fortify us.
And so that we always keep our eyes on him.
I liked your take on that.
Yeah.
I understood what you were saying.
Yeah.
And I think they meant very well when they-
Yeah, yeah.
No, no, no.
I know.
I love their guidance.
I really do.
Don't jump on Satan's tail.
I look to their guidance all the time.
Yes, of course.
So I love that.
I love that.
And another thing that we just did at the church, they had a prodigal worship night,
which was amazing.
Yes.
Amazing.
This was all, and that's, this was, God put this on her heart and she brought it to fruition.
It was a great idea.
I think over 200 people were there.
And 700 names were written down.
Yes.
We were praying for the prodigals in our life.
And we all have them, people who haven't come to faith.
And we just want them to come home to God's kingdom.
And not just children, as parents, as friends.
A lot of people have different kinds of family members.
And it was beautiful.
I love that the worship night was so intentional.
It was just so focused on the prodigals.
And Annette got up and spoke.
Pastor Jimmy spoke.
Pastor Brian spoke.
And it was great.
And then there was worship music.
And then at the end to what you just commented on, they asked people to write the names down of the prodigals.
And everybody came to the altar and placed the names on the altar.
And there was over 700 names, which the staff at the church prayed over.
It is online on YouTube if you want to watch it.
It's pretty powerful.
And then just to add to that, when we went to the church service, it was a regular service, I think.
Pastor Jimmy spoke about the prodigal when Kevin and Christina were there.
Yes.
And it really touched them.
I know.
I mean, they were emotional about it.
And we talked about it like, you know, yeah, it really touched them.
I was just like, praise God.
Look at how he's moving, man.
Yeah.
And especially because every night we pray at the table, big amens.
You know, they were all in.
Yeah.
I loved it.
I know.
It was beautiful.
It wasn't just like, we'll be polite.
You know, they were just in, they were into it.
Yeah.
It was great.
It made me feel very good.
This is going to be a big year for me because I'm going to give my testimony later on this year.
The women's ministry?
Yes.
What month are you doing that?
I don't know.
Maybe May.
I'm not sure.
I have to ask Annette.
So God has been preparing me for it.
And as we said, when you give your testimony, it's 90% about God and it's 10% your own story.
I talked privately with Pastor Jimmy about that.
Yeah.
And I said, he said, well, that's because a lot of people do like gutter to alter, I think is what he called it.
And it's all about how, you know, usually I had this big trauma.
event and this and this and then the god thing comes at the end oh so it's not necessarily that
it can be interwoven okay because i was for myself because i have to do my testimony on february 8th
we're going to florida in florida three times by the way you're gonna have it down by the third
time and and i yeah i'm a little worried like and i discussed with him how i was thinking he says
that's fine he says it's fine is you you don't have a like a broken down story where it's all
about you, all about the things that did. And then at the end, God saves you. It says,
when you weave it in, it's going to be fine. Because I was nervous when you said that.
Well, that's what, when I was at the women's ministry committee meeting.
You kept pointing at me like, it's got to be 90% about God. And I'm like, man, my PowerPoint,
it's all just messed up now. I got to rearrange my slides.
But so, you know, God has started to put on my heart how to do this. And so I've been taking
notes. And so I'm going to open with a slideshow of pictures of me starting as a baby up until
our bowel renewal, my baptism, tied to Zach, Zach Williams song, my rescue story. Is that
Zach Williams? I think so. Yeah. Yes. And so I was, I said to my sister, I said, you need to send me
those pictures of me as a little girl. You know, the one that you saw me with my jack-o'-lantern
your teeth and you told me if I would have seen that.
Hard pass.
Hold on a second.
Is it this one?
Let me see.
Yes.
Is that it?
Yes.
That is.
That's it.
Let me get into that.
Wow.
You're going to do like a photo montage?
Yes, at the beginning.
And then at the end.
Yeah, multimedia.
And then at the end, I'm going to do Jamie McDonald's.
Risk!
Desperate.
No.
Oh, what's it called with the chains?
Chain breaker?
No, it's called.
Hold on.
I should be prepared.
Yeah, you should.
I'm sorry.
Like liked songs.
Hold on.
Let me look.
I'm looking in my.
Left it in the river.
That's going to be the ending song.
Left it in the river.
Yes.
Oh, yes.
Hold on a second.
Since I'm a disc jockey.
Yeah.
Nice.
Yeah, that's my story because Jesus rescued me.
You can just play this episode, slap some slides on it, good to go.
Yeah, that's what I'll say.
I'm just going to play you the latest.
Curry the Keeper.
Yeah, Curry the Keeper, number 146.
So anyway, but I'm even thinking about it, I get nervous.
I get nervous.
You're going to be so good, man.
You have no problem.
You're going to be fantastic.
Anyway, but yes, I wanted to bring up that, yeah, I'm going to show all those horrible pictures of me as a child.
Are you going to say, when my husband saw this picture, he said, yeah, hard pass.
I showed it to Brandy.
One day we were coming back from San Antonio and I showed it to her.
She was laughing so hard I thought she was going to fall.
She was going to drive off the road.
What, about my comment or just the picture?
Both, the picture and, yeah.
I'm like, you know, I love you that I'm showing you this picture.
But anyway, so you want to catch up, catch people up on Phoebe and how Phoebe's doing?
Well, yeah.
I mean, first of all, Phoebe's still with us.
She's doing great.
She's had several overnights with Jill and Mike and their two dogs, their cat, their chickens, and the Longhorns at the ranch.
and it's gotten to the point where she really loves going on a sleepover.
I know.
In fact,
she's happy there.
Yes.
Like smiling,
tail up,
wagging.
Yes.
And,
and so Mike texted me and said,
Hey,
I'm in town.
Can Phoebe have a sleepover?
I'm like,
how can I say no to that?
Of course.
He picks Phoebe up.
She runs out.
Hey,
jumps right in his truck.
And then the next day he comes home.
He comes back with,
he says,
she was ready to come home.
Yeah.
I said, what do you mean?
I said, Phoebe, do you want to go home?
And she went right to the car, jumped in.
And when she jumped out, she went right to me, hey, dad.
And then rubbed her head against his leg and then went inside.
It's good.
I think it's good in general for animals to have different environments.
Yeah.
But when we went out with the kids to the Longhorns and that's where you see Phoebe, she's like, yeah, running around.
She's a total ranch dog.
And now she's very, very, very dirty.
She's a very dirty dog.
She's gray.
She's not white anymore.
But she had to shave a little bit off of her hip because she had an abrasion.
And I took her to the vet and the vet said, you know, do you mind if I just...
It's an open wound.
Well, it was already scabbed over.
Yeah, but it was big.
Yeah, it was a couple inches.
Yeah, it was big.
And so it was funny, the vet, Dr. Sammy,
It's like, do you mind if I just shave some of this hair so it can dry up and get some hair?
I said, no.
She said it like a lot of people don't like that.
So, well, yeah, she looks beat up for sure.
She's like rat tat dog.
But yeah.
So when she goes and stays with him in March for two and a half weeks, she's going to come back like brown.
Because she's outside all the time.
Yeah, she is.
Yeah, she'll be brown.
But that's okay.
But they have all this acreage fenced in.
So it's perfect.
Yeah, it's good for her to run around.
She runs around in our backyard.
Yeah, but it's very confining.
I mean, this is big.
So tell our listeners about the gift that she brought into our house.
So I'm walking with her.
I walk her three times a day typically.
Or she's walked three times a day during show days.
You walk her in the afternoon.
And we're always walking.
It's probably about, I don't know, three quarters of a mile in total.
Depends a little bit on how far we go.
And we're past the mailbox.
We're going all the way to the inn.
And there's like a dead mouse and she sniffs the mouse and I just keep on walking.
And in the evening I take her out and it's dark.
I mean, it is pitch black here.
If there's no moon, it's black.
And I have my flashlight.
But so we walk, we do our round, we go around Dilbert's tree or not Dilbert.
What's the dog's name?
What's his big dog's name?
I don't know.
I don't remember.
I've forgotten already.
Bailey.
No.
George.
Whatever.
The big dog.
Dilbert's tree.
And we come back and I see her sniff at the mouse.
And my flashlight's already on the road.
I said, come on, Phoebe.
And when I say come on or chop, chop, whatever, then you show up.
But now she's like, chop, chop, chop, chop.
I'm like, oh, okay.
And I like that.
So she's prancing.
Yeah, we're walking fast.
Like, oh, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
I'm like, oh, this is good.
Good.
A little bit of exercise.
She's happy.
Yeah, she's happy.
And she comes in, walks right to the dining room table.
opens her mouth. The dead mouse
falls out. I'm like,
what?
Was she bringing that to us
for a gift? I don't know, but then
I'm like,
Tana, hold on to Phoebe, because I've got to get
this mouse. And Phoebe's like, no, no, no, no.
She had the whole
mouse in her mouth.
Not chewing it,
just in her mouth as like a handbag.
If the tail wasn't hanging out or anything?
That would have been funny.
Like a handbag.
like a louis vuitton a louis mouse vuitton i'm like what is that she's never done anything like
that it was but i think she's like look at me look what i brought this is awesome dad because
usually when she goes after something wants to eat it it is gone it's gone in a nanosecond
whatever piece of wood or mud or whatever pies i mean it's gone you know with all those acorns
So underneath that live oak for weeks, she let go of that.
Cause she will actually get an acorn, break it open, eat the nut.
She's like a huge squirrel.
Did she spit out the shell?
Yeah, yeah.
And she's eating the nut.
And then at a certain point, the squirrels have eaten all the nuts.
And she's just like sniffing.
I'm like, Phoebe, there's not a single nut left.
And yo, she find one.
She crunch it and eat the nut.
I remember when you used to walk.
How many dogs do that?
I remember when you would walk her and you're like, yeah, let her eat deer poop.
I'm like, what?
It's just deer poop.
That's disgusting.
Anyway, so she's doing really, really good.
Well, this is her culture.
You know, she came from eating whatever's available whenever she can.
Yeah.
But we have her on Farmer's Dog with supplement with that dry stuff that we got from the vet.
And she is a svelte 87.8 pounds.
She looks good.
This is her ideal weight.
And she does.
She looks good.
When Christina and Kevin came in, they're like, oh my gosh, she's so skinny.
I guess she was a heifer when-
She was-
120.
At 1.120.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's a lot.
Anyway, she's a good dog.
She's a hot dog.
Yes.
Because at night, we're watching our favorite show right now.
Yes.
Which is Victoria.
And because it's winter night, even though it's not always-
80 degrees outside.
Not always that cold.
I'll turn on the fireplace.
And she just lays in front of the fireplace.
and then usually around episode three that we watched she'll roll over she'll
are you a hot dog you're like yeah i'm kind of hot that and then she lays her head back down and
just basks in the heat it's the strangest thing but she'll lay it out in the in the winter cold
outside she'll lay out she's an odd girl she's a great girl she's a great girl i said to adam i go
do you think we should give her to jill and mike she seems so happy there and you're like no
I'm kidding.
I was kidding.
You should see his face.
I'm kidding.
I love Phoebe.
You know I do.
No, I'm just kidding.
I did that on purpose.
And you were so, was it when Christina was here?
Oh, she snarled at Christina.
She showed her teeth.
But that's not the story I was, she was batting her butt.
at a certain, you were in a mood or something
and you were like, no, we're not going to have another dog
because you're always talking about the dog we're going to get when she's dead.
Is that how?
No, no dog. There's not going to be any dog.
We're done with dogs. This is it. We're done.
And then the next morning, like, no, I was just in a bad mood.
Like, oh, really? Sherlock?
Hadn't noticed that.
Chicks, man. Chicks are so unpredictable.
So we have a lot of travel this year.
We do.
We have a lot of travel.
So we're going to Florida, like you mentioned, to give your testimony.
Two weeks later or like nine days later, I'm going to Nashville for NRBs, a big Godcaster thing.
Yep.
And hopefully we have some big announcements.
Then I come back and-
Two days later.
Not two days later.
No, it's the 17th of the 21st.
Oh, okay.
All right.

It'll be fun.
And then, yes, then we're back in Amsterdam, July 5th, 4th.

or are we just going to stay in Amsterdam?
We can talk about it.
Yeah.
Hadn't really thought about it.
Yeah.
Well, it's going to be cold.
No, it's going to be hot.
It's going to be too hot.
Hot?
If we go anywhere south, like Italy, it's going to be too hot.
So I was like, maybe we go to Budapest or Prague.
You might not want to go anywhere in Europe at that point.
Who knows?
The whole place is militarizing.
They're locking their citizens down because Russia is going to kill them.
We'll have to see.
We'll play it by ear.
Yeah.
But we are footloose and fancy free, baby.
We are.
Yes.
We are.
Is Phoebe okay with Jill and Mike?
Do they have all the dates?
They have the Israel dates, yes.
You might want to check ahead.
They have the Florida and the Israel dates.
I'll have to cover.
I am so happy.
that they're in our life, first of all,
because Jill and Mike are just wonderful people.
We love them so much.
I love hanging out with Mike, especially.
And Jill is just so funny.
Yeah.
But the fact that they also are just willing to take Phoebe,
and that Phoebe has other dogs.
I know.
This is the big thing.
Well, we trust them.
So Jill's awesome.
Well, she's Dr. Doolittle.
So should I do my God shot?
I've been waiting for this.
Let me see if I can find the button.
Oh, yeah, there it is.
It still works.
Tina's God shot.
Wow. That's right. Back by popular demand, everybody.
That's a God shot.
So, Pastor Jimmy, when we started going to the church, when the new year would start, he would always talk about his word for the year.
Word for the year, yes.
And so what is your word for the year?
My word is kava.
Kava?
Kava. Q-A-V-A-H.
It was a word that was presented to me.
Actually, Gordon presented this word to me, my partner Gordon.
You never even shared this with me.
I did.
You weren't listening.
When?
Well, first of all, I told you.
Second of all, it was on the previous episode of We Get to Do This.
You know the podcast that Pastor Jimmy and I do?
It's only an hour.
I know it's hard to listen to amidst all your doom scrolling on.
Oh, look.
She's got her nails.
Oh, that's great.
Put more cheese on it.
you don't know don't even start saying you're sorry because you're not i know i'm amazed i'm
i'm amazed you said you sent me a text hey cc winens uh the first noel is playing on hello
fred i'm like okay first of all thank you second of all you're listening to hello fred that's all
i listen to now in the car ever since the christmas music changed on the message it's now
solely hello Fred.
And so I was driving with Andrea yesterday
and I go, I need to text him.
He's falling down on the job.
There's a Christmas song on January 6th.
CC wine and snuck in there.
By the way, you can get Corrine the Keeper
on the Godcaster app.
It's in all the app stores,
Android and iOS.
Godcaster. One word.
Okay, so your word is...
Kavah.
It's Q-A-V-A-H.
And it's a Hebrew word and it does appear in the Bible.
In what book?
Oh, please.
Okay.
What do I look like?
A theologian?
Yeah.
No, I'm a disco jockey.
I bet you Pastor Jimmy would know.
I'm a disco jockey.
No, he liked this word.
Okay.
But what would you know?
Because we discussed it on the show.
It means waiting, but it's waiting for the Lord to do something, but not sitting still.
So the analog is you're weaving a rope while you're waiting for God to let you know that
the rope is ready and you can swing on the rope, you can pull the rope, whatever this rope is
supposed to do. So it's way, it's kind of, it goes along with delay is not denial when you pray for
something. You know, people always want like rub the lamp, you know, Hey genie, come on out of your
God. I prayed for this, make it happen. And so I just thought with everything I'm doing, we've had
a lot of, you know, waiting for things and, but whatever we, things still happen and they happen
in God's perfect timing.
So kavah is my word for waiting, anticipating, and doing all the things that God is telling
me to do while we're waiting.
Yes.
That's my word.
Nice.
Thank you.
Well, my word for the year, and I was waiting for it to come, and it just came last week,
soon, like not, I mean, not too long ago, is alignment.
Yes.
So my word last year was seek, to seek him, and now I have to align.
Alignment.
And so based on that, the scripture I came up with was Isaiah 41.10, which is, don't be afraid for I am with you.
Don't be discouraged for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
And knowing that keeps me in alignment with him.
Nice.
Yes.
Yeah.
Very good.
Yeah.
What is the scripture again?
Isaiah?
Isaiah 41.10.
Okay.
Yeah.
Isaiah, man.
I just love how my words were, my word last year was seek, which is to seek him and now align with him, be in alignment.
My word last year I think was accelerate.
Was it accelerate?
I think it was.
I don't remember.
I have to go back and listen to the archives.
Yeah.
I think so.
Yeah, but Isaiah, I would love to do a study on Isaiah because I would love to study all the prophecies.
Man, Isaiah, there's so much richness in Isaiah.
I love when, oh, there's a devotional, it has Isaiah.
And when I read a little scripture, I'll be like, let me just read the whole thing.
Let me just get that whole chapter.
It's fantastic.
No, I would love to do a guided study on that.
I read Jeremiah.
Ooh, yeah.
Yikes.
Yeah.
He was warning everybody about what was going to happen.
Were you doing Job this morning?
And you're like, oh, Job.
Oh, man.
Yeah, it's heavy stuff.
Heavy stuff.
He goes to 11.
Yes, Job goes to 11.
Yes, it does.
Yep.
All right.
Shall we thank some people?
Yes, Cork Soakers.
Absolutely.
Now it's time to hear from the Cork Soakers.
That's right.
We got to hear from those Cork Soakers now.
What did you say?
Now it's time to hear from the Cork Soakers.

A lot of PayPals came in, but no notes, or almost no notes.
You can put a little message in the PayPal.
It's really the message that we really love.

Well, that depends on...
Jacqueline?

Okay.
You've been decanted.

Oh, nice.

5,015 sats from ComicScript Blogger.
Oh.
And now this is from a while back.
Because ComicScript Blogger, he loves promoting other things and promoting things on podcasts.
But if you don't do a podcast, you won't send anything.
And so that is value for value.
That is how it should work.

Which, by the way, Kevin and...
Oh, they were awful.
The lid was up.
Up all the time.
They didn't get the message.
I didn't feel like correcting them.
I'm just happy they're here.
I'm like, whatever, I'll put the lid down.
But anybody else, my friends, you're like, Teresa.
What?
Peggy.
Teresa.
The lid's up and you didn't even flush.
Well, Teresa needs to have another visit.
She needs to come by again.

So that was it.
Thank you.
Thank you all very much.

And was there anything else we got in the P.O. box in the last couple of months?
No.
There's been no agenda stuff.
But we really love it when you guys support the show.
And sorry it took us so long to get into the studio.
No, we are very bad podcasters.
Adam, yeah.

Is this one you had ready for episode 146?
No, this is a new one.
Okay.
This is always a scary moment in the show because it's where Tina has a question of the week.
Of course, she already knows the question, so she's had plenty of time to think about her answer,
and I'm just sitting here on the chopping block.
But don't you like it?
I love it.
