このコンテンツについて

My name is Jon Eks and I spent more than a decade talking to people about work on the award-winning Jon of All Trades Podcast. I’m sick of talking about work. I want to talk about everything else in our lives. Men are traditionally not good at this. So, I’m talking to people I love, respect, and admire. I’m trying to embody the axiom “Be the change you want to see in the world.” Expect candor, vulnerability, profanity, and a wide range of topics.

  • Rock Star Sh*t with Justin
    2025/07/17

    On this episode of Off the Clock, I’m joined by my pal Justin, lead singer of The Frickashinas, formerly of the band A Void whose concert was the first date I had with my wife, and a dude who tries to d*ck with me during nearly this entire interview. Here’s some of what we talk about:

    • First Question: At what age did you first want to become a rockstar and who did you think you could emulate?
    • who were Justin’s early musical influences? which nerdy band instrument did he play?
    • the process of commissioning the song “Happy Friday” and our shared sensibility
    • the fine art of ballbusting
    • Dave Grohl screwing up his reputation by screwing around and Justin’s own crazy family discovery
    • punks listening to Foo Fighters, Sister Hazel, Tegan and Sara, Taylor Swift, Post Malone and Olivia Rodrigo
    • Justin tries to hijack the interview by constantly interrupting me and I just stare his ass down and make it super awkward
    • how our brains are not equipped to handle the constant barrage of information and how bad cell phones are for kids (seriously)
    • how maybe we in the punk community are just throwing talent shows for each other, but how that’s the antidote to loneliness
    • how even the smallest little projects can have a profound impact on someone’s day, someone’s life, someone’s entire existence and why we all need to keep creating
    • the hidden 1-2-3-4 in one of the Frickashinas songs
    • the actual process of recording new stuff and what the best practices are
    • the pivot the Frickashinas have made away from the negative and toward the positive

    Find Justin at The Frickashinas.

  • Championship Talk with Peaches 'n Diesel
    2025/07/10

    On this episode of Off the Clock, I’m joined by my workout buddy, Beer Pong Tournament co-champion, and all-around ray of sunshine Peaches ‘n Diesel. Here’s some of what we talk about:

    • First question: In your pantheon of accomplishments, where does Beer Pong Champion rank?
    • getting Big Shot into a costume to drink with strangers
    • how I potentially rigged the lethal lottery tournament draft like the 1985 NBA draft lottery
    • just how many DMs she gets in a day (which – OHMYGOD)
    • does she ever feel resentful of the online persona she’s built for herself
    • what are her biggest triggers and/or insecurities about being a creator?
    • which social media platform has the meanest commentors and how we’ve lost a lot of civility in this society
    • how do we break down the barriers of society and start talking to each other again? (hint: costumes!)
    • the pitfalls of tattoo location as you age and some general light tattoo talk
    • how we define weird and we answer the question of whether we find ourselves “weird”
    • goats, alpacas, yoga, and making yourself happy in moments of sadness
    • what are our most used emojis?
    • the endgame for Peaches n Diesel, brand deals, and misplaced self-righteousness from an audience
    • what’s Serena Williams like? (Peaches has met her)
    • are we prepared to defend our championship? (YES!)

    Find Peaches 'n Diesel on Instagram.

  • Dana the Fully Customized Human
    2025/07/03

    On this episode of Off the Clock, I’m joined by my friend Dana, a fellow punk rock radio DJ, trans rights advocate, and all-around great hang. Here’s some of what we talk about:

    First question: What was the band, song or album that turned you into a punk rock fan?

    • our early music tastes and migrating from pop into other genres
    • old war stories from college radio including the origin of Jonny X
    • not being a morning person and dealing with sleep deprivation
    • how long we’ve wanted to meet each other and then a lot of mutual admiration society energy
    • how apparently the bassist from Murder by Death bartends at a bar near my house (!)
    • her process of coming out, the pandemic, Laura Jane Grace and her path back into radio
    • we talk about the current cultural spotlight on transgendered people, grooming, and being a “fully customized human being”
    • which bands we’ve been keeping our eye on and her station’s Indiefest coming up
    • Dana’s extreme extroversion and the cocktail that’s named after her
    • how weird having notoriety in your community is
    • how finding the highest expression of yourself leads to greater success
    • what she would like to see out of society to make it better
