Street Curb Curiosity

You lucky enough to have a good day today?  I propose you make your own luck and there's lots of "good stuff" that can happen in your day. You just may not have taken the time to see it. Let's explore a day in your life…and find how lucky you were to have a few good things fall in place. Smile, you're about to experience 9 minutes of positivity!

Some creamy dialog about our favorite cold treat in the USA. I'll do you a favor and talk about your favorite flavor… and why you head hurts when eating it.

A refreshing rant about what most of us do not drink enough of.  Water! You know...the same stuff the dinosaurs…ahhh, used? Savor the episode and some water while listening, your liver will thank you for it. H2go Water Bottles referenced:  https://www.h2gohawaii.com/

The one universal thing we all love:  Things on sale! And we're gonna chat about them. Please don't think this episode as cheap. Joking about sales? Does discount? A quick rant about not paying retail, with the humor marked...way down.

What makes you buy a different product?  In many cases, it's NOT price.  It's from being treated lousy.  Goodbye Brand Loyalty... An episode that's a little marketing, madness, disappointment, desire and distain about the stuff we buy. Loyalty comes from keeping promises.  I promise you'll like this rant…at least a little…maybe.

So the pizza you ordered is screwed up.  Wrong toppings!  How do you react? Calm (like me) or CRAZY like another guy I witnessed?  What should the manager do? Let's get saucy about this situation. My childhood pizza place:   Matucci's Pizza (Willow Café), Mount Carmel PA

The job of this podcast is to share what kids wanna be when they grow up…what you wanted to be when you grew up.  Did you grow up? We voraciously peer into potential kid career choices…maybe good or maybe bad.  At least consistent.

An instant conversation starter with anyone anywhere:  Chat about the weather. How much do we complain about it?  Here's a hint:  constantly. A rant about how we run hot and cold on the topic…and keeping cool about weather people. An episode that may give you something else to talk about?  ;0)

They're in the news and in the skies just about everyday.  UFO's = Unidentified flying Objects. The discussion shouldn't sound too alien to you.

Some fun about what's in the bun. A rant about one of the most eaten sandwiches on the planet is what we're serving up to celebrate this very special day. (5/28) How do you like yours?

8-out-of-10 people say they consciously do this:  They litter!   A true trash talk rant where we'll toss out some ideas and trivia about garbage on the street and the garbage peeps that put it there.

A few minutes all about odors…and some answers about them you may find foul. Like can you really smell yourself?  You may think this episode really stinks…but (maybe) it was meant to.

A carb loaded conversation about the (alleged) most important meal of the day. We chew about what we like, what we don’t, where they eat pickles, yak butter and sprinkles (Jimmies if you're from Philly) plus what's good, what's bad, and what's brunch… all without a lot of bacon . Shameless plug for one of the best Brunch spots in Philly.  Parc; here's the menu. https://parc-restaurant.com/men...

A seriously not-so-serious look at being serious…and how humor may be your answer to being a little more happy.   Can you cope with an 11 minute rant on a worthy coping mechanism? A worthy listen for National Mental Health Awareness Month (May) A link to the "happy" experiment episode referenced in this therapy episode: https://anchor.fm/stcurbcuriosity/episodes/You-and-someone-else-will-have...

What did 700,000 people start doing in only 3 weeks?   They started playing chess on line!   Chess...it's back...in a big way, thanks to a redhead on Netflix.  We talk about the moves, the mayhem, and the people who make them. There's no getting bored with this board game.  It's your move....gonna try this podcast?

50!  The Big 5-0.  No, not my age (I wish) but the number of episodes of Street Curb Curiosity.  A rant of how it all started (not the big bang, this podcast), why 50 is special, some behind-the-scene craziness, stats and why this thing even exists.  Join the discussion that's less time than the rinse cycle of your washing machine.  The first 50…the latest episode.

We have something in common besides death and taxes:  It's our birthday. Let's rant about their fun, their facts and their founding (besides your parent's part) How common is your birthday?   Here's the website referenced in this episode http://thedailyviz.com/2016/09/17/how-common-is-your-birthday-dailyviz/

We rant about prices, history, the things we hate (including the #1 thing we despise) and some things we did and do and shop for at these places.   A full service podcast about gas stations.  And oh yeah, a few really bad jokes to put in your tank.

They may look funny and respond well to a little extra attention: not friends and family, we're talking houseplants. We talk about how we talk to plants as well as the ones that could be a perfect new friend for you.   This rant shares the dirt on the good, the bad and the thorny of those things hanging around your home 

A table for one?  Many say it's fun. Here's an audio appetizer about this growing culinary curiosity. All in about the time it would take to get the waiter's attention. Extra Info Here are the websites for the two NYC restaurant/bars mentioned in the episode; both places you should visit 1) Gallagher's:  a phenomenal steakhouse and bar in Midtown Manhattan - https://www.gallaghersnysteak...

A little rant about what and how we'll be binging on that TV or mobile phone of ours.  And what about that cable bill?  A quick take on the changing channels and challenges about all the content we aren't content with. (you like that?).  Enjoy the veracity about video with some angst about audio about our choices: past, present and future.

It's been a year of wearing the same clothing. My number is "18".  Yours? (articles of clothing you actually wear) What's the next style trend? Will it change or will we remain: "Fashion on the top, comfort on the bottom" thanks to ZOOM calls? A 10-minute out-of-style oration about our current fashion situation.

Are you one?  Want to be one?  A personal discussion with aspiring influencers leads to this rant about the nature of the influence and content business, the money some people are making and a thought or two on how we can influence this crazy career choice.
