Delusions of Grandeur: The Podcast
Delusions of Grandeur is a weirdo best friend art collective from Canada, established by Janet and Carmen in 2013. We write, we draw, we paint, we dance, we dick…around. We’ve been podcasting since 2020. The concept is simple: two bi-coastal besties, two microphones, a topic, and a little weed. War. Climate change. COVID-19. The culture wars. You will find none of that here. Delusions of Grandeur is a podcast of lighthearted philosophical banter. Join Carmen and Janet as they explore topics in unprecedented depth. They aren’t afraid to ask the important questions and piss their pants laughing while doing it. Take a break from the tragedy of living and come laugh with us! Theme music written and performed by Dave Buschemeyer. (Thanks, buddy!) delusionsofgrandeur.co Instagram: @delusionsofgrandeur.co Twitter: @Delusions_Grand

What makes something an addiction? Janet opens up about her bulimia. Is there such a thing as an addictive personality? Recovered addicts rule. Shame spirals. Smart addictions. Safe injection sites. Rock bottoms. Interventions. The recovery aha moment. Recovery as liberation. Addiction swapping. The answer is that there isn’t an answer. It’s like cooking a frog. If you’re gonna do it, overdo it.

Janet and Carmen get to the bottom of what is cool. Life is one big high school. I ♥ Donald Trump. The original never-nude. Someone could make 80 cool. Your body is a Tupperware container. The cool dog. Everything depends on so many things.
