EJG The Weirdo

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, and workload could be calculated? What if everyone was required to contribute the same level of effort — not the same job, not the same outcome — but the same input?

I don’t support that system, and I explain why. But I explore it honestly, because it’s t...

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 episode, I try to figure out whether the problem is Pierre himself… or if it’s simply the party label attached to him.

I talk about leadership versus power, why accomplishments look different when you’re not in office, and how likability has somehow become more im...

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 helping people. We’re against spending money we don’t have, especially when Canadians are barely staying afloat.

I break down why:

conservatives would be upset no matter who sent that money

Canada is not financially or economically healthy enough to give billions away

uncontrolled...

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 getting mislabeled as abuse. I talk about intent vs. impact, why words aren’t the same as violence, and why learning to regulate how much you let things affect you matters more than inventing new labels.

This isn’t about denying that words can hurt — it’s about reco...

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 honest spiral about addiction, habits we never question, why people pretend they know things they don’t, and how half of adulthood is just confidently guessing. I get into spelling, words everyone acts like they understand, conspiracy theories, government corruption, and why questioning things d...

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 advice.

I explain:

How vaccines work in simple terms

Why I believe timing and quantity matter

How the immune system still has limits

Why vulnerability during immune response gets ignored

A pers...

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 real-life examples from work, hiring, everyday conversations, and preferences that people love to label as “racist” or “sexist” even when they’re not.

I also get into:

Why being offended doesn’t make you right

The difference between preference and hate

Why...

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 quickly incentives and behavior change when effort is removed from the equation.

From there, I get into risk, responsibility, and why success gets treated like something that needs to be punished instead of understood. This isn’t about idolizing billionaires or dismissing people who are struggling—it’s about qu...

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 for colds. The whole episode is basically one long rant that starts with common sense and ends with me wondering how we got so dumb as a country.

From red tape slowing down builders, to modular homes that cost a fortune, to trade deals that go backwards after every international trip—nothing makes...

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 the lights are up and the air hurts my face, I already know what month it is — no soundtrack required.

From there it turns into highway etiquette: the wave of thanks when someone lets you merge, the slow walkers who stare as they block traffic, and...

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 and water is for babies.

From there, the rant detours into Toronto vs. Calgary, my high-school nightmare of everyone wearing Liberal socks when Trudeau won, and how I was scared to admit I was conservative. Now I’m in Calgary, I feel at home, and...

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, Spanish honorifics I want no part of, and the two very specific situations where lying in a relationship is not only acceptable — it’s encouraged.

I get into honesty, ego, Christmas gifts, performance illusions, and why every guy quietly hopes his wife fakes enthusiasm sometimes. It’s blunt, sel...

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, confession, and a little healthy paranoia about what’s real anymore.

I get into why unlimited information is both a blessing and a curse, how history books might age terribly, and why ChatGPT is basically my brutally honest co-pilot for everything I do. Then it turns political: media bias, Trudeau vs...

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 human right — the right to keep your family safe.

It’s blunt, intense, and unapologetically honest. If you’ve ever wondered why defending your own home became controversial, this breaks it down in the simplest, realest way possible.

Highlights

Why self-defense laws in Canad...

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 winter life makes zero sense.

And yes — it goes into global warming, but from the brutally honest angle nobody says out loud. If warmer weather means no more snow, then what exactly is the problem? It’s sarcastic, unfiltered, and painfully relatable for anyone who’s ever...

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 and how honesty could save everyone days of tiptoeing.

You’ll hear stories about growing up in a brutally honest family, the infamous puddle-driving incident, and why taking people’s words literally might be the ultimate power move. It’s blunt, funny, and painfully relatable.

Highlights

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?” comment about Trump, to the endless globe-trotting, to the carbon-tax hypocrisy, this rant goes deep into why Canadians are fed up and finally starting to call out the nonsense.

It’s blunt, irritated, and full of the questions everyone’s thinking but nobody in power wants to answer.

Highlights...

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 ev...

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 that makes homeownership feel like sci-fi. From there, it turns into a full breakdown of taxes, politics, and why voting with feelings instead of facts has backed us into a corner. It’s blunt, confrontational, and probably offensive to anyone who refuses to take responsibility for the mess we’re in.

High...

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 common-sense fixes now. It’s blunt, fast, and very Calgary.

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 a word. It’s raw, a little dark, and very straight-up.

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 everyone’s sanity. From there, I get into social battery management, honest boundaries with family, and how people-pleasing still sneaks up on me—even when I swear I don’t care. It’s blunt, a little petty, and very real.

Highlights

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 than buzzwords.

From there I zoom out: phones, social feeds, and even ChatGPT have rewired habits and expectations; we’ve become dependence-first, solutions-second. Then I wade into energy common sense—oil & gas vs. wind/solar, grid reality for EVs, and why nuclear deserves...

“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 genuine harm vs. simple discomfort, why emotions still need steering, and how tough love and patient coaching can help (including with autism—acknowledging severity matters while still leaving room to try, teach, and adapt). If an opinion upsets you, say “that bothered me—and here’s why,” and let’s trade reasons. Deb...

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 out there — it’s a mix of old-world honesty and new-world chaos.

It’s about working hard, thinking for yourself, and realizing how disconnected modern life has gotten from reality. Because back then, they might’ve stunk — but at least they built something real.

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? And what happened to basic common sense?

It’s an honest talk about frustration, leadership, and how a country with endless potential somehow keeps falling behind. Whether you agree or disagree, this one’s meant to make you think — and maybe, finally, start talking about it.

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 out there — it’s a mix of old-world honesty and new-world chaos.

It’s about working hard, thinking for yourself, and realizing how disconnected modern life has gotten from reality. Because back then, they might’ve stunk — but at least they built something real.

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 as actually knowing them.

It’s about attention, comparison, fake connection, and the quiet addiction we’ve all accepted as normal. From the illusion of “staying in touch” to the way social media shapes negativity, this one calls it like it is — maybe it’s time to delete the app and call

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 episode explores how losing can actually be the greatest teacher, why pain and progress need each other, and why consequence isn’t always a bad thing. It’s about earning your wins, learning from your losses, and realizing that growth only happens when there’s someth...

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 — from its vocals and music production to how underrated the performers are. There’s also a nostalgic detour through Bieber’s evolution, the shame of liking pop stars in school, and how growing up changes what we value in music.

By the end, it’s part film review, part music com...

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 mental health labels have become trends, how anxiety gets romanticized, and why “tough love” might work better than constant comfort.

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 questions whether equality has become more of a slogan than a standard. It’s an honest reflection on balance, fairness, and what true equality should look like when no one gets special treatment.

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 the dangers of digital perfection — explaining why snow should disappear, why Tim Hortons betrayed Canada, and why AI-generated girlfriends might just ruin humanity.

A mix of comedy, opinion, and real talk — only the way EJG can deliver it.

“Laughing Through the Darkness: Dave Mowry on Comedy, Mental Health, and Finding Light Again”

In this heartfelt and hilarious episode, EJG sits down with comedian and mental health advocate Dave Mowry, who opens up about his journey from homelessness and bipolar disorder to rediscovering purpose through stand-up comedy. Together, they dive deep into the realities of mental illness, marriage, success, and how humor can literally rewire the brain.

From suicidal lows to laughter-filled highs, Dave’s story proves that sometimes the best therapy is a good punchline. EJG and Dave swap stories about resilience, love, and le...

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, nothing is off limits. But it’s not just about cars — we get into the messy truth about electric vehicles, how governments contradict themselves on energy, and why the word “literally” doesn’t even mean what it used to. This one’s part rant, part reality check, and all classi...

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, glove mishaps, ladder wounds), wander into pee-powered batteries, Aquaman slander, and why hands-on skills still beat desk jobs—for now. It’s half comedy, half “wait…is that actually a good idea?” with a little faith, family, and friendly roast mixed in.

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 wealth aren’t automatically evil—and that policy has trade-offs. We hit doctors vs. McDonald’s wages, why companies pass costs along, Elon-level reinvestment, and the role of risk, bankruptcy, and reward. Agree or not, it’s a spicy, no-notes dive into ambition, incentives, and what “fair” really means.

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 scares, leftover hate, plants taking over the house, and even which celebrities I think would make the best cuddle buddies. It’s chaotic, funny, and very real—just like every other night on my couch.

Why the Tattoos – From teardrop tattoos that scream “arrest me” to full-body ink that covers every inch of skin, I break down the weird, wild world of tattoos—and why some choices just don’t make sense. Along the way, I rant about goth phases, mohawks, my wife roasting my tattoo ideas, and even how my dad’s “you’re not special” talk turned into surprisingly good advice. It’s funny, blunt, and a little chaotic—just like this podcast.

Toilet Water Splash – This episode is all over the place, but in the best way. I kick things off with some exciting news about my podcast ranking in Canada before diving into phone storage struggles and a quick reflection on Charlie Kirk. Then we get into the real star of the show: toilets. From overzealous automatic flush sensors that leave you with a wet butt to the horrors of porta potty splashback (and my genius fix for it), nothing is off limits. I wrap it up with rants about housing prices, grocery costs (apples are a scam), and my be...

Why do we always say Congratulations – In this episode, I dive into why people feel obligated to congratulate others, even when they don’t actually care. From pregnancies to promotions, I question whether constant congratulations really mean anything—or if it’s just social habit. I talk about being genuine vs. fake, how tradespeople see the world differently than office workers, and why fancy trucks in corporate driveways get under my skin. As always, it’s unfiltered thoughts, a little bit of frustration, and some laughs along the way.

First Guest: Bearded Bill – In this episode, I sit down with my very first guest to dive into Canadian politics. We cover everything from the struggles of minority government and leadership failures to the impact of immigration on housing, crime, and public safety. Along the way, we share blunt takes on Trudeau, Pierre Poilievre, and how government decisions shape Canada’s future. Expect raw political commentary, a few laughs, and some no-filter honesty about where the country is headed.

Are you Sure you’re gay? – In this episode, I rant about how people sometimes confuse finding someone attractive with actually being gay. From Ryan Reynolds to Tom Hardy, I argue that appreciating a good-looking guy doesn’t automatically change your orientation—it just means you’ve got eyes. Along the way, I veer into embarrassing confessions about peeing (and sometimes pooping) your pants, the joys and pains of marriage versus dating, and why big angry text messages are scarier than getting yelled at in person. It’s unfiltered, awkward, and way too honest—just how I like it.

Motivational Speech: Accomplish it – In this episode, I try something different: going full-on positive. I talk about work, purpose, money goals, and why it doesn’t matter what job you pick as long as you give it everything you’ve got. From chasing financial stability to battling through tasks you hate, I share why effort, attitude, and balance matter more than shortcuts. Life’s tough, but if you stay patient, work hard, and own your choices, the universe (or God) will do the rest. Don’t overthink it—just accomplish it.

You’re a professional.

That’s what my journeyman told me while I was wiring a panel, and it hit me harder than I expected. If this is your full-time trade, there shouldn’t be “just in case” shortcuts—you should know what you’re doing. From that wake-up call, I drift into rants about soggy Egg McMuffins, failed lightning-bolt science ideas, weird sayings like “half-assed” vs. “half-asked,” and even my grandma’s rules about movies and swearing. It’s a mix of lessons, laughs, and the random thoughts bouncing around in my head.

Skunkman

What happens when life throws cars, skunks, and random hospital patients at you all in one story? In this episode, I break down the very important question: if you had insane hops and tried to leap over a speeding car — but got sprayed by a skunk first — could you still land it? From tomato juice baths to unfair betrayals, to the birth of the ultimate anti-hero “Skunkman,” this rant takes a weird turn (or five). It’s part comedy, part chaos, and all about how life doesn’t always smell so sweet.

Pop It or Stop It

My face still breaks out in my mid-20s and it drives me insane. Do people actually notice? (Yes. I do. And that’s the problem.) I rant about popping vs. leaving the white volcano, moms and wives who love pimple popping, and why strangers with planet-sized zits make it impossible to shop at Walmart. Then we swerve into the Great Shower Debate: peeing in the shower (aim for the drain, clean after, don’t do it with someone else in there), socks in bed, and other unfiltered bathroom/life opinions. It’s gros...

Ghosts Don’t Like Me

Everyone around me seems to have a ghost story—friends, family, even my wife—yet I’ve never had a single haunting. Maybe ghosts are just scared of me… or maybe I’m too boring for the afterlife. In this episode, I rant about hauntings, urns, and whether ghosts could be useful for telling us the real history that schools get wrong.

Of course, I go off-track too: dying in a “cool” way (like shark attacks), Ted Bundy hypotheticals, Grey’s Anatomy interruptions, Justin Bieber’s underwear, and why I’d rather b...

Is Being Fake so Bad?

In this episode, I dig into whether being “fake” is actually the worst thing in the world. If someone you don’t even like is acting super kind, offering you a glass of water or a chocolate bar—are they really the bad guy? I talk about honesty vs. politeness, when it’s okay to hold back the truth (like after someone’s family member dies), and when brutal honesty is actually the best thing you can do as a friend.

Along the way, I wander into books that s...

Gym Rats

Flexing in the mirror, posting shirtless selfies, chasing Tom Hardy’s body goals, and why most of it just screams “douche” energy. In this episode, I go off on gym culture, insecurity vs. confidence, and whether anyone actually cares about your pecs on Instagram. I also wander into trades talk, why I think electricians are the superior trade, and why sweeping is still part of the job no matter what anyone says.

It’s part rant, part honesty, part comedy—and very on brand for The Weirdo.

Ms Rachel

Kids love her, parents tolerate her, and I… can’t stand her. In this episode I go off about Miss Rachel, kids’ songs that make zero sense, and why some children’s shows feel more like torture than teaching. Along the way, I somehow end up talking about pineapple pizza, gravy, traffic in Cochrane, Florida Man, and why dentists should’ve never gotten rid of laughing gas.

It’s chaotic, it’s weird, and it’s exactly why this podcast exists.

Politics: Carbon Scam Tax

Today’s episode isn’t about Grey’s Anatomy or pee ducts — it’s about politics. I’m fired up about Canada’s carbon tax, government spending, and the ridiculous promises that never add up. From free money handouts to sky-high taxes, I rant about why the system feels broken, how working-class Canadians are getting crushed, and why the so-called “solutions” are making everything worse.

This isn’t a polished political show — it’s just me, EJG The Weirdo, venting my thoughts, calling out the nonsense, and asking if I’m the crazy one or...

Pee Duct

What if peeing and pleasure weren’t connected? What if we all had a retractable, fruit-rollup-style belly-button pee duct that grows longer every year? In this episode, I break down my genius/idiotic invention idea, explore the unfair advantage men already have when it comes to peeing, and imagine how life would change if everyone had their own personal pee hose. Spoiler: it’s weird, it’s gross, it’s kinda genius… and also very, very stupid.

Doctor Talk

Grey’s Anatomy, Derek Shepherd, unpronounceable medical words, vagina-cologists (yes, you read that right), worms, birds, dogs, tattoos, strawberries, McDonald’s discounts, Elon Musk, and why guys and girls get treated differently for being hoes. This episode has no plan, no filter, and somehow goes from doctors to butthole worms to cheesy bread without missing a beat.

If you came for professionalism, wrong podcast. If you came for weird, you’re home.
