This Hangover Sunday episode of the Grit City Podcast is pure chaos in the best way possible.

The crew kicks things off talking about historic flooding across the Pacific Northwest before spiraling into hobby farms, sheep rentals, goats for HOA landscaping, and why everyone secretly wants a farm—even if they pretend they don’t. From holiday shopping disasters and mall nightmares to Costco-induced rage, the conversation takes a hard Midwest turn with hotdish debates, Minnesota winters, and the surprising joy of ice-fishing bars built directly on frozen lakes.

It’s a high-energy, no-filter episode packed with laughs, weather trauma, questionable food opinions, and exactly the kind of conversations you’d expect from a Sunday morning hangover session.
