About this listen

Ego & Vice Podcast has been supporting Ottawa’s music, art, and DIY spirit for 9 years strong. It’s not about flashy gimmicks or over-produced nonsense—it’s about real people telling real stories. From musicians to makers, comedians to creators, it’s a raw look at the talent driving Ottawa’s scene.

And we’re not stopping there. Alongside Ego & Vice, check out our new lineup: Mike & Vic’s Southie Stories (off-the-cuff banter, laughs, and songwriting talk), The South Hood Stereo (a showcase of Ottawa bands and artists), and the One Year Later Series (deep dives into how things change with time).

At the end of the day, it’s all about giving a voice to the artists, hustlers, and dreamers who make this city tick—unfiltered, inclusive, and 100% from the heart

  • Episode 171: Lazy Bratz
    Feb 13 2026

    Lazy Bratz are a three-piece punk rock band from Ottawa, Canada, delivering massive energy, mayhem, and a raw rock ’n’ roll attitude.

    Their songs range from unapologetic party-and-debauchery anthems to politically charged tracks that confront anarchy, social upheaval, and frustration with how the world operates. Known for explosive, high-energy live shows and well-crafted DIY studio releases.

    Lazy Bratz are a band built to be loud, fast, and impossible to ignore and one you’ll want to keep on your radar for years to come.

    Southie Stories is the podcast you throw on when you need to lighten your day, find inspiration, or just enjoy some genuine music banter from people who live and breathe it
