However, Curry put a brake on any podcast ideas for the foreseeable future. During an interview recently, Curry was asked if he has thought about starting his own podcast. Curry said,” Doesn’t fit into my daily time schedule. Just stay consistent with that. So just make sure you know what you’re signing up for… If I’m going to do something, I kinda be all in on it.”?

“At this point, a daily, weekly, whatever podcast is kinda in my wheelhouse right now,”?he added.

Curry is undoubtedly a very busy man these days, as he is getting involved in various business ventures of his own off the court. Along with that, he has his own shows alongside his YouTube channel. So adding a podcast would likely become very hectic for the Baby-Faced Assassin.
