GCP: Hangover Sunday: Rambo Knives & Tarot Cards

1 hour 2 minutes

Jeff, Scott, and Mike ring in the "heatwave" with the latest episode of Hangover Sunday. The guys dive into the evolution of The Scrapyard with Tacompton Files, the ethics of cleaning local skate parks, and the new GCP Hotline—including C-Note’s legendary Rambo knife birthday story. Things get mystical as Jeff uses a specialized Norse tarot deck from Iceland to read C-Note’s future (spoiler: Odin is involved). From Nigerian "Social Catfish" scams to the horrors of the Bellevue commute and the mystery of the "Bacon Vault" at Salish Lodge, this episode covers the gritty reality of life, work, and the impending robot revolution.
