Only Boring People Get Bored: A Beautiful Mindset with Meg Jager


Listen Later

Comedian Meg Jager joins me for one of the funniest and most insightful episodes yet. We dive into autism, anxiety, anger, identity, dating, chaotic life choices, unhinged DMs and why only boring people get bored.

Meg opens up about discovering she’s autistic in adulthood, how that reframed her entire life (including realising she was bullied without knowing), and why her autism actually protected her. We also explore OCD, everyday rage, Melbourne tram etiquette, mental health as physical health, antidepressants, grief, burnout and the strangely calming world of pimple-popping videos.

And of course… we expose some of Meg’s wildest DMs — from unsolicited “confessions of love” to sour reactions when she doesn’t reply. The parasocial relationships are real.

If you love episodes about autism, mental health, dating, feminism, comedy, boundaries and modern adulthood, this one is for you.

  • Autism in adulthood & the moment everything “clicked”
  • Why Meg thought her bullies were confusing her with another Meg
  • OCD, anxiety & the physical symptoms no one talks about
  • Everyday rage & Melbourne’s complete lack of spatial awareness
  • Why some people get bored — and why Meg never does
  • The mental load on women vs men’s learned helplessness
  • Parasocial DMs & men treating comedy like Hinge
  • Boundaries, love languages & being misunderstood
  • Weight, antidepressants & navigating burnout
  • Grief, family, community & the butterfly effect
