EJG The Weirdo
by EJG The Weirdo
“EJG The Weirdo” is exactly what it sounds like — me, a random voice on the internet, saying whatever pops into my head. No scripts. No filters. Just weird thoughts, random rants, and whatever else makes me laugh (or makes no sense at all). If you came here for something deep and meaningful, you might be in the wrong place… but if you came here for weird, you found it.

Enough with the Candles
I’m back! Turns out the only thing standing between me and this podcast was a $20 USB C adapter. In this episode I air out everything in my house that’s slowly driving me insane. We start with why everything in life is apparently bad for you (yes, even ice water), then move on to the candles in...

What's Better, Weddings or Funerals?
Today we’re talking about weddings, dress codes, awkward social expectations, food logic, and why I apparently can’t just wear sweats everywhere. I talk about: Showing up to a wedding in track pants and a hoodie Why my wife got absolutely ticked off at me Why I genuinely don’t understand dressing...
-
Dependence is Cancer
Today we’re talking about dependence, independence, debt, parenting, hard work, and why struggle is actually necessary for growth. I talk about: Why depending on people can hold you back The difference between needing help and relying on others Why hardship teaches lessons success never can…

Why Kids Have No Respect Anymore
Today we’re talking about anger, discipline, respect, parenting, and why it feels like nobody fears consequences anymore. I talk about: Why anger destroys lives The difference between anger and drive What “God’s wrath” actually means to me Why consequences matter for children Respect for parents,...
-
Flowers Are the Biggest Waste of Money
Today we’re talking about gifts, flowers, Mother’s Day, birthdays, and why trying to surprise your wife feels like a full-time job sometimes. Seriously… how are people affording all these holidays back-to-back? I talk about: Why flowers make zero logical sense to me Trying to surprise someone who...
-
Why Everyone Gets Offended by Everything
Today we’re talking about honesty. Not “brutal honesty” where people use the truth as an excuse to be cruel — I’m talking about real honesty. The kind where you actually say what you mean instead of pretending all the time just to avoid awkwardness. Because apparently now, honesty automatically...
-
Why the Furries?
Let’s talk about something no one seems to fully understand… hugs. Because I don’t get it. When are you supposed to hug someone? When are you not? And why is there no universal system for this? One second you’re going in confidently, next second you’re stuck in some weird arm position wondering…
more -
The Suitcase Attack & Grammar Rants
It’s been a minute. Not because I ran out of things to say — but because cancelling a $30 subscription felt like more effort than just… continuing the podcast. So here we are. This episode starts with a late-night ambush: a suitcase, a dark hallway, and a pinky toe that didn’t stand a chance.…

Canada supports underage drug addiction
Let’s talk about something serious for once. Because what’s happening right now doesn’t even feel real. In this episode, I get into the direction Canada is heading — and why some of these policies make absolutely no sense to me. From medically assisted death being easier to access than actual...
-
Being Real isn't the Problem, Being Fake is
Be honest with me for a second. At what point did telling the truth become disrespectful? This episode dives into the line between honesty and rudeness — and why people confuse the two. From those awkward moments where you should say something (but don’t)… to telling a friend their new shirt…
more -
Why Party Loyalty Is the Real Problem
Let me ask you a real question: If you’re liberal, would you ever consider voting conservative? Because it doesn’t seem like it. This episode dives into party loyalty, political bias, and why so many people refuse to even listen to conservative ideas — no matter what those ideas actually are. I...
-
Why Is Everything Such a Hassle
This episode starts with something simple: trying to get internet set up. And somehow turns into a full breakdown of modern life. I talk about how unnecessarily difficult internet companies make everything, why relying on other people sucks, and how expensive it is just to exist on your own in...
-
Why “Fair Pay” Isn’t Fair at All
I’ve always believed that forcing everyone to earn the same amount, regardless of effort, will never work. But this episode isn’t just a rant — it’s a thought experiment. I walk through the idea of whether fairness could exist if effort itself were measurable. What if exhaustion, mental strain…

If Pierre Were Liberal, Everyone Would Love Him
I genuinely don’t understand why people dislike Pierre as much as they do. From my perspective, he’s one of the few leaders actually arguing for personal freedom, common sense, and accountability — yet people seem determined to shut him down without really listening to what he’s saying. In this...
-
$2.5 Billion to Ukraine While Canadians Fall Behind
After hearing someone claim that conservatives would support sending $2.5 billion to Ukraine if it came from their leader, I had to set the record straight. This episode isn’t about hating Ukraine — it’s about understanding what being conservative actually means. Conservatives aren’t against...
-
Gaslighting is so Stupid
Gaslighting has become one of those words that gets thrown around constantly — and honestly, I think it’s gotten ridiculous. In this episode, I break down what I was told gaslighting actually means, why people take it way too seriously, and how teasing, joking, and normal human interaction keep...
-
Coffee is Overrated
I don’t understand coffee culture. At all. If something tastes awful the first ten times, why force yourself to like it—especially when it turns into a daily dependency people can’t function without? This starts as a rant about coffee (and why hot chocolate wins every time) and turns into a very...
-
Common Sense Isn’t Anti-Science
In this episode, I talk openly about vaccines, why I think they’re necessary in some cases, and why I’m uncomfortable with how many are given at once, especially to infants. I’m not a doctor. I’m not pretending to be one. This is about logic, common sense, and personal experience, not medical...
-
Criminalizing Speech Is Insanity
In this episode, I go straight at freedom of speech and why the idea of arresting people over words is completely insane. I talk about why offense is subjective, why you can’t legally police opinions, and why actions — not feelings — are the only thing that should ever be criminal. I use…
more -
Free Money Helps No one
I break down why the idea that trillionaires should simply give away their money sounds compassionate, but collapses once you actually run the numbers. I walk through what happens when wealth is redistributed in theory versus in real life, why free money doesn’t solve structural problems, and how...
-
Stop Helping
I figured out how to fix Canada in about five minutes. The solution: stop touching everything. Every time the government tries to “help,” it gets more expensive, more complicated, and somehow worse. Housing? Stop interfering. Environment? Stop interfering. Healthcare? Maybe stop going to the ER…

I'm no Grinch, But...
Christmas is still the best holiday… but some of it is wildly overrated. I talk about why Christmas music should not be played year-round (my own family is guilty), why inflatable decorations are a waste of storage space, and how constant reminders of the holiday just make it harder to enjoy. If...
-
Monsters, Money, and Melted Snow
This one starts with caffeine panic and ends in Alberta independence. I talk about drinking three to four Monsters a day, ask ChatGPT if I’m going to die, and apparently land on: “probably not, but don’t make it a lifestyle.” Which means I’m still drinking one at 7:40am because they taste amazing...
-
The “Daddy” Dilemma
This episode dives straight into the awkward collision between past dating life and dad life. I talk about why certain… names… used to be great, why having a kid changes everything, and how one innocent word can suddenly ruin the mood forever. From there, it spirals into nicknames gone wrong,...
-
Burning Stuff & Burning Lies
This one goes all over the map in the best way possible — childhood pyromania, frog-torturing guilt, the White House being “Canada’s fault,” and how easy it used to be to believe whatever the newspaper said. From backyard fire bins to grown-up fact-checking, this episode jumps between nostalgia,...
-
Castle Law & Common Sense
This episode dives into something huge: the shift in Alberta’s self-defense laws and why it matters more than most people realize. I get into the insanity of homeowners being arrested for defending themselves, the double standards in politics, and why this new protection actually restores a basic...
-
I Love "Global Warming"
The first real Calgary snowfall hits, and this episode is one big rant about why anyone chooses to live like this on purpose. From freezing mornings to useless pea gravel, icy sidewalks, winter beaters, and the universal suffering of brushing off your car at 6 AM, this is a full breakdown of why...
-
Stop Saying "I'm Not Mad"
This episode dives into one of the most universal relationship headaches of all time: when someone is clearly mad, obviously mad, undeniably mad… and still says, “I’m not mad.” From emotional landmines to week-long silent storms, this rant breaks down why pretending everything’s fine never helps...
-
Who Cares? Apparently Not the Prime Minister
Another day, another political update that makes zero sense. This episode breaks down the wild double standards in Canadian politics — especially how the media bends over backwards to protect Carney while tearing Pierre apart for things Carney says himself. From the now-infamous “who cares?”...
-
The Cost of Power
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...
-
Smarten up Canada
This one goes everywhere: busted microphones, jealous stares at million-dollar houses, and why people love hating anyone more successful than them. I get into the bad math politicians and media throw around, the truth about wealth resentment, and how the younger generation got handed an economy...
-
Common Sense vs. Canada
I rant about people who stop in doorways (and Costco aisles), a 10-minute drive-thru purgatory at the wrong window, and street-blocking small talkers. Then we pivot to local and federal politics: why I started paying attention, why home ownership feels impossible, and why I think Canada needs...
-
We’d All Be Fine (Kinda)
I riff on why a sudden, unstoppable end (like a nuclear strike) weirdly doesn’t scare me—because if we all go together, there’s nobody left to mourn. From there I talk about pain and “interesting experiences,” why honesty beats getting caught, how wives have a sixth sense, and why “anyways” isn’t…
more -
Unread, Unsaid, Unnecessary
I go off about my #1 social pet peeve: people who never respond. If you’ve ever called, texted, voice-memo’d, and still gotten radio silence, this one’s for you. I talk phone etiquette (why even have a phone if you don’t use it?), why long text wars are a trap, and when a quick call saves...
-
Stop Saying You’re Triggered: Part 2 (Overstimulated)
I pick up where I left off—this time taking on the word “overstimulated.” Do we really need a clinical label for “there’s too much going on,” or are we complicating what used to be simple? I unpack when that feeling is real, when it’s an excuse, and why plain language (“I’m overwhelmed”) helps…
more -
Stop Saying You're Triggered
“Triggered” gets tossed around like confetti—and it’s emptied the word of meaning. This episode digs into why that bugs me: not because people don’t have real pain, but because slapping “triggered” on every disagreement shuts down thought, conversation, and growth. I talk through what counts as...
-
They Must've Stunk Back Then
This one starts off with a simple question — did people in those old medieval movies actually smell that bad? But it turns into a full-blown rant about how crazy modern life really is. From pointless power bill fees to the tax system that punishes success, to AI coming for every cushy desk job…
more -
Politics: Common Sense is Gone
This episode dives headfirst into Canadian politics — no script, no sugarcoating. From Doug Ford ticking off Trump to Mark Carney’s economic mess, it’s a raw breakdown of what’s really going on behind the scenes. Why does Canada keep making the same mistakes? Why are we in more debt than ever?…

TikTok is Stupid
Let’s be honest — TikTok isn’t helping anyone. It’s a trap disguised as entertainment, a scroll that never ends, and somehow we convince ourselves it’s “news.” This episode breaks down how endless scrolling kills time, focus, and real connection — and why checking someone’s story isn’t the same…
more -
Participation Trophies
This one dives deep into what participation trophies really do — and how they quietly chip away at the reason we try in the first place. From sports to the trades, life runs on incentive, struggle, and the lessons buried in failure. If everyone gets the same reward, what are we even chasing? This...
-
K-Pop Demon Hunters Review
This episode starts off one way… and takes a wild turn. What begins as a rant about bad drivers becomes an unexpectedly deep (and hilarious) appreciation of K-Pop Demon Hunters. From refusing to watch it to calling it “exceptional,” this review dives into what makes the movie surprisingly great —...
-
Everyone's Got ADHD
Everyone's Got ADHD It feels like everyone suddenly has ADHD—or at least says they do. This episode digs into how over-diagnosis, medication culture, and social media have blurred the line between real ADHD and everyday distraction. It’s an honest, funny, and sometimes uncomfortable look at how...
-
Why Equal Rights Doesn't Exist
Why Equal Rights Doesn’t Exist Equality sounds simple — but is it? This episode takes a hard look at what “equal rights” really means in today’s world, and how modern society has blurred the line between fairness and favoritism. From workplace incentives to gender expectations, the conversation...
-
Katy Perry Dating Trudeau
In this unfiltered and hilarious episode, EJG dives into everything from Katy Perry allegedly dating Justin Trudeau (and why that’s a downgrade) to global warming, AI girlfriends, and the death of real-world standards. He takes listeners on a wild ride through Canadian pride, climate logic, and…

-
I’m Sorry… You Bought That?
I’m Sorry… You Bought That?Some cars on the road just make you stop and ask why? In this episode, EJG dives into the mystery of vehicles that probably should’ve never left the design room (looking at you, Kia Soul and Nissan Juke 👀). From hideous paint choices to questionable design decisions,...
-
Pee Theory & Power Tools (with Bob LeMent)
Pee Theory & Power Tools (with Bob LeMent) Static Radio’s Bob LeMent drops in and we go full curiosity-mode: gas-pump urinals (for efficiency!), splash-free bathroom “engineering,” and the eternal battle between grit, ice, and cracked Calgary windshields. We trade trade-stories (HVAC bravado…
more -
Are Billionaires Really That Bad?
Are Billionaires Really That Bad? — I riff on incentives, taxes, and why most people don’t spend a decade becoming a doctor “just for fun.” From managers losing motivation under higher tax brackets to how founders reinvest (and risk) their way to huge outcomes, I make the case that success and...
-
Gay Bacon
Gay Bacon – From late-night snack binges to the glory of rainbow strip candy (a.k.a. “gay bacon”), I dive into my unhealthy love for junk food, why Reese’s Fast Break is the king of all chocolate bars, and how Domino’s cheesy bread has ruined my self-control. Along the way, I rant about diabetes...
