Dan the Man returned for a festive “Christmas in November,” while Will the Thrill from the Copper Country made his debut to give us the lowdown on Upper Peninsula sports. We caught up on Jack’s new business venture – jackneedsahouse.com, and once again tipped our hats to our sponsor, Dairy Queen of Cokato.

Ron showed up wielding an annoying chicken tool, and Max delivered a full-scale meltdown about Highway 494, sunglasses, and capitalism. The crew circled back to Halloween stories, previewed the upcoming Obsessed Podcast, and teased next week’s taping of the long-awaited Big Brothers episode.

Another perfectly average installment of small-town chaos, laughs, and friendship from the GRR gang.

Presented by Dairy Queen of Cokato – the breakfast spot of choice for farmers and blue-collar early risers.

Dan the Man kicked things off with some Thanksgiving talk and stories from his new gig at Hobby Lobby. The crew dove into a heated Mud Lake Decoys vs Knapp Men’s League Hockey preview, debated town vs. country trick-or-treating, and witnessed another classic Max meltdown—this time about flies in the car.

Carl Aho swung by with Taco Bell, Brad Johnson walked away with a DQ hat, and we wrapped it all up with a look back at the Dassel-Cokato Chargers fall sports season.

It’s small-town chaos, caffeine, and community pride—just another day on Gravel Roads Radio

Presented by the Knapp Open Golf Tournament – the official sponsor of Gravel Roads Radio Ep. 21 Part-Time Jack made his return, and chaos followed. We opened the show battling technical difficulties before diving into the hot debate: with two years and unlimited money and resources, could you make the NFL… or the PGA Tour? The crew had strong opinions, Ron sang his heart out, and Max went nuclear over every store begging you to join their loyalty programs. Chett and Abbi Hillstrom joined us via phone, Tyler Niemela stopped by to talk Mud Lake Decoys hockey, and somehow we managed to hold it all together — barely.

It’s unpredictable, off-the-rails, and proudly small-town. In other words, classic GRR. We promise next episode will be better… probably.
