The Cost of Power
from EJG The Weirdo · host EJG The Weirdo
I dive into the strange world of people who want authority but have zero clue what comes with it. From young apprentices who think they’re journeymen, to inspectors who suddenly love the taste of power, to actors complaining while cashing million-dollar cheques — this episode is about responsibility, ego, work ethic, and reality checks.I talk about what real responsibility actually looks like, why some people chase status without understanding the consequences, and why I’m not rushing into leadership until I’m actually ready. Then I get into fame, acting, singing, and what I’d really do if I ever made “one big million-dollar hit.”It’s honest, ranty, relatable, and full of the stuff people think but never say out loud.Why young workers overestimate their skill levelThe danger of giving authority to people who only want powerReality of being a van driver vs. the fantasyInspectors with ego vs. inspectors with experienceWhy actors complaining about long hours gets zero sympathyMy dream life: big impact, no fameIf I ever made one hit song — I’m outHighlights
