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.
