Around the House with Eric G® Home Improvement Remodeling & DIY

Around the House with Eric G® is the home improvement podcast that helps homeowners, first-time buyers, and DIYers renovate, repair, and upgrade their homes with confidence — without the costly mistakes. Ranked the #1 Home Improvement Podcast of 2026 by FeedSpot, this nationally syndicated radio show and podcast is hosted by Certified Kitchen Designer Eric Goranson, CKD (“Eric G”), who brings more than 35 years of experience in kitchen design, remodeling, and construction to every episode.
Whether you’re planning a kitchen remodel, tackling your first bathroom renovation, budgeting a whole-home project, or just trying to figure out what that weird noise in your wall is, Eric G and co-host John Dudley — a former contractor — break it down from two perspectives: the designer’s eye and the builder’s know-how.
Every episode delivers practical, actionable advice on:
Home renovation and remodeling (kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and beyond)
DIY projects and home repair for every skill level
Hiring contractors, avoiding scams, and understanding bids
Smart home technology and energy-efficient upgrades
Sustainable and healthy building materials
Design trends, product reviews, and what’s actually worth your money
You’ll also hear exclusive interviews with celebrity guests, industry leaders, and top building pros — plus honest, entertaining conversations that make home improvement feel less overwhelming and a lot more fun.
About the Host: Eric Goranson, CKD, is a nationally recognized home improvement expert and keynote speaker, named a Top 50 Innovator by Kitchen and Bath Design News. A former member of the Baldwin Hardware Design Council with brand experience including KraftMaid Cabinetry — and a creative streak from his days as a Seattle rock band bassist — Eric makes expert advice engaging and relatable.
If you own a home, want to own a home, or work on homes for a living, this is your show. Follow Around the House with Eric G® on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen, and start upgrading your home like a pro.

Is Angi or Angi's list being dishonest about kitchen remodeling costs? Feb 21, 2023

Show notes

This last week the Kitchen and Bath Industry was up in arms over a story that was published on Angi.com about the costs of kitchen remodeling. These numbers are so low they were not accurate even 20 years ago. Eric dives into where they are wrong and the possible motivation for publishing a story like this and what the potential financial benifit for them could be. After Eric gets off his soapbox he then explores the rebates that are slowly coming out for electrical and appliance upgrades that could help lower income people upgrade heating and cooling systems, electrical panel upgrades, and new kitchen appliances and so much more.
