  • GCP: National Grit – Hot Dongles, Walleye, and Weed Laws

    GCP: National Grit – Hot Dongles, Walleye, and Weed Laws
    Sep 10 2025
    This week, the crew goes national with voices from across the U.S. — Baton Rouge, the Twin Cities, and back home in the Pacific Northwest. They swap stories about crazy freeway ramps, cross-country driving, and why Minnesota’s pizza game is “the land of the bland.” From walleye obsession and ice fishing traditions to Michigan’s weed laws still figuring themselves out, no topic is too weird or too small for the GCP table. And if you’ve ever wondered how a bad headset dongle can turn into 20 minutes of comedy gold — you’re in the right place. Add in tales of cruise ship drinking packages, local pizza recommendations, and a few international travel fears (Canada, we’re looking at you 👀), and you’ve got one wild ride of an episode. ⏱️ Timestamped Highlight Guide 00:00 – 05:00 – The crew kicks things off with national roll call: Tacoma, Baton Rouge, and the Twin Cities. Cue tech hiccups, banter, and the usual chaos. 05:00 – 12:00 – Road talk: wild freeway ramps, crash-course nostalgia with Hot Wheels, and why driving in Olympia will make you question your life choices. 12:00 – 20:00 – Weed laws across the states: Michigan’s slow rollout, Minnesota catching up, and lessons learned from Washington’s saturated cannabis market. 20:00 – 28:00 – Cruise ship confessions: overpriced drink packages, day-drinking disasters, and why naps are the real vacation flex. 28:00 – 36:00 – Pizza wars: crawfish pies in Louisiana, Minnesota’s “land of the bland,” and the eternal search for a solid slice. 36:00 – 45:00 – All about walleye: fishing traditions, creepy eyes, and the great “pretty vs. ugly fish” debate. 45:00 – 55:00 – Ice fishing 101: augers, tents, beers of choice, and why PBR still reigns supreme on the ice. 55:00 – 01:05:00 – Border patrol paranoia: Canadian bans, international travel fears, and rating countries by how nice their jails look. 01:05:00 – End – The hot dongle meltdown: fried headsets, way too many puns, and a comedy spiral that only GCP could pull off.
