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.

Stop Helping

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/12/09

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

I'm no Grinch, But...

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/12/09

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

Monsters, Money, and Melted Snow

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/12/05

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

The “Daddy” Dilemma

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/12/04

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,

Burning Stuff & Burning Lies

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/12/04

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

Castle Law & Common Sense

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/12/02

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

I Love "Global Warming"

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/27

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

Stop Saying "I'm Not Mad"

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/27

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

Who Cares? Apparently Not the Prime Minister

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/27

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 Cost of Power

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/14

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

Smarten up Canada

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/13

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,

Common Sense vs. Canada

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/10

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.

We’d All Be Fine (Kinda)

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/10

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.

Unread, Unsaid, Unnecessary

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/05

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

Stop Saying You’re Triggered: Part 2 (Overstimulated)

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/04

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

Stop Saying You're Triggered

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/11/01

“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,

They Must've Stunk Back Then

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/10/31

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

Politics: Common Sense is Gone

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/10/30

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

TikTok is Stupid

EJG The Weirdo ·

2025/10/28

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
