Blocked Party - Stefan Heck & John Cullen

Episode 125: Wes Barker v. 200 People Apr 12, 2021

Wes Barker (magician) joins the show to tell us what happens when magicians prank each other, and how it can lead to actual, real-world consequences of the utmost annoyance. The episode itself is also magic, as Wes makes for a great first-time guest as we dive into his recent move to Montreal, having to learn French, and what happens when one of your best friends (who is also a magician) lives next door. The Blocked Boys also get into blue checkmarks, getting suspended on the PlayStation Network, the CN Tower, mythical beasts, and Wes tells us about the time he tried to teach John how to do magic.

If you want even more of the show's beautiful magic, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month, including this week, where we debut a brand-new feature, an episode where we teach a non-Canadian podcaster about Canadian pop culture. We kick the new series off with our good friend Lydia Burrell learning about Canadian children's entertainer Fred Penner. It's a great time, and it'll be out Wednesday. Plus!! Our next live show has been announced, and on Saturday, April 24th, David Roth from Defector Media will join us to review some classic sports bloopers. It's gonna be great, don't miss any of it!

Episode 124: Tim Gray v. Peter Nygard Apr 05, 2021

Tim Gray (comedian) joins the show for our first-ever cease-and-desist, as apparently telling jokes about someone on a local cable access show is grounds for getting lawyers involved. It's a particularly scummy man and so it feels like a great thing all around. And this episode is a great thing too, as we find time for John to display his impeccable Godsmack impression and Stefan to display his...less than impeccable impression. Amidst talk of butt rock, The Blocked Boys also crash into witchcraft, cover bands, YouTube algorithms, Reddit, sports Twitter, and emo.

If you're feeling particularly emotional, you can head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty for some more sensitive content, as we give you four beautiful bonus episodes every month for the low price of $5. This week, we have another edition of the Blocked Party Mailbag coming at you, where Producer Dan makes a couple shocking reveals that you can't miss. Later this month, we will be debuting our brand-new bonus series, the "Canadian Education Programme for Foreign Podcasters", our attempt to educate our podcasting friends from across the globe about the Great White North. Episode 1 should be a blast as we bring on our pal Lydia Burrell and teach him about Fred Penner, a very famous and beloved children's musician. It's fun for everyone, so don't miss out!

Tim Gray is a member of the HUNKS sketch troupe, whose debut album, "Mouth Beef", is available now on CD Baby. Tim can be followed on Twitter and Instagram at @timgrayrulez.

Episode 123: Lauren L. Walker v. Ricky Gervais Mar 29, 2021

Lauren L. Walker (writer/podcaster) joins the show to demonstrate that the best way to get blocked by Ricky Gervais is to write one of his jokes for him. He's another in a long line of very famous name-searchers and we're surprised it took 123 episodes for him to land here, but it's all worth it. Elsewhere on the episode, Lauren drops a controversial food take as we talk Tums, gourmet dog food, bad breakfasts, bad doctors, bad museums, Bone Bone, and Hawked Party 2021 somehow becomes more of a reality.

If you want your 2021 to have a bit more party in it, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every single month. This past week, we released an episode with our pal Jesse Farrar, and coming up this week, Stefan's good friend Greg joins us to talk about one of John's blocks.

Episode 122: Molly McAleer v. Robert Herjavec Mar 22, 2021

Molly McAleer (podcaster) joins us to discuss a much juicier Block Tale than the one in the episode's title, one so juicy we've diverted attention from it because we don't want that particular website's followers after us. The Shark Tank block is very fun too, and the whole episode is just a nice time as we learn about Christian YouTube, Juggalo TikTok, and the Real Housewives. Elsewhere, we get into getting pitched by a beauty Instagram account, Lifetime Original Movies, Sylvanian Families, American Girl Dolls, and Stefan watches the Snyder Cut.

If you don't want to miss the cut, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month, including one this week with Jesse Farrar from YKS, as we take a listener donation episode to brand-new heights and get Jesse to talk Pacific Rim 2, among other things. We also have our charity stream coming up this Saturday, March 27th, as Stefan and John will compete in all manner of online competitions to see who is the better man. Join us at 7 pm EST/4 pm PST on our Twitch channel so you don't miss a second of the action!

Episode 121: Beth McColl v. An LOTR Fan Mar 15, 2021

Beth McColl (writer) joins the show and breaks new ground for us as our first-ever guest outside of a North American time zone. This prompts a discussion about Daylight Savings Time and doing taxes in different countries, amidst a Block Tale where Beth makes the mistake of being a female fan of Lord of the Rings online. The episode isn't all taxes and timezones though, as the Blocked Boys find time to get into dad mishaps, changing our Twitter habits, Naomi Wolf, and the BBs introduce Beth to Pete Weber, Jr. And to cap it all off, Beth hits us with one of the best top 3 topics in show history.

If you want more of the show's best history, you can head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every single month, plus our entire back catalogue of bonus episodes immediately.

Episode 120: Jane Stanton v. A Tinder Match Mar 08, 2021

Jane Stanton (comedian, High School Sucked) joins us for what is truly the craziest and weirdest Block Tale we've ever had, and both John and Stefan lose their minds over a shocking reveal. The rest of the episode isn't quite as shocking but still has us on the edge as we talk about Stefan's Lord of the Rings weekend, Jane's high school parties, and John's follies living with his parents into his mid-20s. Plus, The Blocked Boys find some time to get into the Chris D'Elia "apology", Lola Bunny, shitting our pants, and we get a lost Cameo from our most recent Word Up! episode a few days late.

Speaking of that Word Up! episode, it is now live at patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to ALL of our bonus episodes, including our great Sweeps Month content. This week, we move into March bonuses, as Becca makes her triumphant return to the podcast with an appearance on a mailbag, and we have lots more great stuff planned for this month you won't wanna miss.

Episode 119: Lance St. Laurent v. Arthur Chu Mar 01, 2021

Lance St. Laurent (Jeopardy! champ) joins the show to demonstrate that the fraternity of Jeopardy! champions is not guaranteed, as he tells the story of being blocked by past J! champion and noted internet shitheel Arthur Chu. John and Lance also get a chance to formally squash their brief Twitter feud after John tweeted about Lance's run on Jeopardy!, and get into some of the finer details surrounding appearing on the show in general. Elsewhere, the Blocked Boys make their BIG ANNOUNCEMENT and also get into film, fictional dads, parking lots, WandaVision, horny letters, and Stefan and John relitigate the "is the Grim Reaper a monster?" debate.

One thing there's no debate about is the great bonus content over at patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR great bonus episodes every single month. This week, we will have the video from our live all-Cameo bonus episode with Nick Ciarelli and Bradford Evans, and we have a ton of great episodes from Sweeps Month right there for you as well, including our latest Trivia Party with our good pals, The Doughboys.

Episode 118: Lance Storm v. Taz Feb 22, 2021

It's the grand finale of BP Sweeps Month, and we couldn't have capped it off any better, as Lance Storm (former ECW, WCW, and WWF wrestler) joins the program to tell us why you'd have to block a fellow wrestler, and the consequences if you forget to unblock them. Elsewhere on the show, Lance gives us the skinny on how being a professional wrestler ends up ruining a lot of conventional entertainment, and we learn a lot about the process of reality television. Plus, we dive into the NHL's Lake Tahoe experience, the misadventures of the Newsmax network, crazy road stories, and we buy someone a wrestling lesson.

If you want a very cheap lesson in bonus episode podcasting, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month.

Episode 117: Karen Kilgariff v. A Wraith Feb 15, 2021

BP Sweeps Month continues as Karen Kilgariff (My Favorite Murder) joins the show to talk about getting a very strange follow that led to an immediate block, a follow so bad we won't even mention the person's name in this space. The rest of the episode is not bad at all, but in fact, very good, as the Blocked Boys talk with Karen about our online ordering habits through COVID, crazy dreams, the CIA Valentine's Day wish, Miley Cyrus, appetizers, and John finally gets called out by a Jeopardy! champ.

If you want to be sweet for more than just Valentine's Day, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month. This month is Sweeps Month, where we have special DUO bonus episodes all month long.

Episode 116: Brent Butt v. Awful Twitter Usernames Feb 08, 2021

BP Sweeps Month continues as we welcome Canadian hero and comedy legend Brent Butt (Corner Gas) on the show for a look inside his block list. We ask the question, "what's in a name?", as it seems that you can almost immediately tell why Brent would've blocked these people based on their Twitter names alone. We look at a couple and it's...not good. Elsewhere on the episode, the Blocked Boys talk cruise ship comedians, Howie Mandel, pinball machines, Super Mario World, and Brent tries to convince Stefan to return to Canucks fandom after Stefan announced he was going to become a Seattle Kraken fan this week.

Episode 115: Julie Klausner v. Pauley Perrette Feb 01, 2021

BP Sweeps Month is here!!! And we kick it off in a big way, as Julie Klausner (actor, author, Double Threat) joins the show to tell us about her one red carpet interview experience: at the Golden Collar Awards, where she runs into Pauley Perrette, the actor from NCIS who might also be an insane person. We dig into that story as well as Pauley's tweets, which are predictably quite wild. Elsewhere, Julie bestows the Blocked Boys with their first-ever nicknames, as Stefan tells us about his new foray into cryptocurrency and John tries to sell off his Funko Pops. We also get into life in Manhattan, the Jon Kay dog shampoo thing, failed investments, and Julie reveals her plan for moving to Canada had Trump won re-election.

If you want to feel closer to a couple Canadian guys, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month and given it's BP Sweeps Month, we have some big things planned.

Plus, we have newsletters, annual subscriptions, a great Discord server, and tons of fun stuff happening all the time, so head on over and get swept up in Sweeps Month.

Episode 114: Nick Nemeroff v. A BP Listener Jan 25, 2021

Nick Nemeroff (comedian) makes his return to the show and in a moment of panic that he wouldn't have a great Block Tale, blocks a BP listener to have something to talk about on the show. It's much sweeter than it sounds, and Nick displays his general niceness throughout the show as we talk about Larry King's passing, cooking and eating meals, and John watches "The Girl Next Door" for the first time since 2004 and discovers it's a very perplexing movie. The Blocked Boys also find time to get into Mikey Miles, Amanda Palmer's viral tweet, and with Funko Pops in the rearview mirror, Stefan finds the new, 2021 way he's going to piss John off.

TW: This episode's top 3 about the Denver Broncos contains some mentions of criminal activity, including sexual assault. Very few details of the cases are provided, but if you'd like to avoid that section, it occurs from 1:05:30 to 1:22:30.

If you want to hear John get pissed off more, there's lots of that content and more over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month. This week, we are releasing a brand-new Hell Block, as Gavin Matts joins us to discuss Stefan getting blocked by Chris James, and the BP Live! with Street Fight is up as well. PLUS!!!! BP Sweeps Month is just ONE WEEK AWAY, as all February we are going to have huge guests, including the just-announced Trivia Party with The Doughboys. We have lots more surprises in-store, so stay tuned for what will be a big month!

Episode 113: Darcy Michael v. TikTok Jan 18, 2021

If you're into John getting bullied, this is the episode for you, as returning guest Darcy Michael (comedian, High School Sucked) and Stefan team up to bust John's chops for not owning a cat, never making it in hockey, and an old classic: forcing him to watch a Joey's World Tour video. We also learn about getting bullied on TikTok, as Darcy gets his account shut down by the homophobic Chinese company for a very innocuous video. Elsewhere, the Blocked Boys go in on Darcy's first appearance on the show 103 episodes ago, pets, saunas, housework, and corporate comedy roasts.

If you want to avoid getting roasted by your friends, do the thing all the cool kids are doing and donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes including TWO this week, as we do a Freaky Friday mailbag where John and Stefan switch bodies to answer questions and we post the on-demand video of our Dragon's Den live show this past Friday. PLUS!! We have Blocked Party Sweeps Month coming up in February, where we have some amazing bonus content planned you won't wanna miss!

Episode 112: Josh Gondelman v. Not Cap'n America Jan 11, 2021

Josh Gondelman (writer, comedian) joins the podcast to tell us the story of a very confusing block that only gets more confusing as we learn that all 3 of the Blocked Boys are also blocked by the very same account. But that hardly matters on this very busy week in Twitter history, as Josh gives us all the details behind #Beangate, Stefan tries all of his new mustards, and we go in on all of the business surrounding the storming of the Capitol and the President's banning from Twitter. And the moment you've been waiting 112 episodes for happens, as we finally get into some Bar Rescue talk.

If you don't wanna wait that long for more episodes, head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes and ONE live episode every month. This week, we've got a great bonus episode coming up, as we were made to watch a terrible Lifetime movie about porn addiction this week and we brought past guest and fave Libby Watson along for the ride.

Episode 111: Allie Pearse v. A Filmmaker Ex Jan 04, 2021

It's a new year but it's the same us, as Allie Pearse (comedian, writer) joins us for a classic Block Tale, where after she breaks up with an ex, he blocks her on everything and then makes a short film where the main character strongly resembles her and it launches his career as a filmmaker and is seen by millions. A tale as old as time. The Blocked Boys have plenty of time for other tales too, as we get into the Instagram Explore tab, childhood snacks, getting duped by a fake post, and an attempt to discuss Bean Dad turns into a much lengthier conversation about can openers. Above all that, Allie turns in a Top 3 that makes Stefan noticeably uncomfortable for the first time in the show's history, a truly special moment.

If you'd like some more special moments, head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month.

Episode 110: The 2021 Blocked Party Enemies List Dec 28, 2020

In the second edition of this yearly tradition, John and Stefan eschew a guest in favour of a list of enemies to set the table for the turn of the calendar. 2020 was a year full of ups and (mostly) downs, and we try to predict who will continue into 2021 with our cups full of hatred for them. Before that, the Blocked Boys talk about their Christmases, Inglehoffer Mustard, charcuterie boards, and they give you a peek behind the curtain at how they prepare guests for the show. Plus, we review our 2020 Enemies List to see how the year played out for us vs. them, a sort of "year in retrospective", Blocked Party-style. And of course, we get into the 10 Official Enemies of the Blocked Party podcast for 2021. There's some choices that will make sense but also some that will surprise as we prepare for another year of the show.

If you like surprises, we have even more in store for you over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every single month. This month was a doozy with a holiday mailbag featuring Santa, the return of Olivia Stadler for an all-Cameo bonus episode, and more! Plus, starting in January, we're going to be introducing yearly subscriptions, a fun way to save some money and support the BBs all year round. Stay tuned for more info on that very soon!

And finally, a sincere thank you to everyone who stuck with the podcast through a very weird and trying 2020. We know it's been a tough one but the show continued to grow and we felt your love and support all year. We love you all very much and in a lot of ways, it felt like we got through all of this together and it means just so much to us. Thanks for being with us and get excited for more great content in 2021!

Episode 109: Kofie Yeboah v. Common App Dec 21, 2020

It's an educational episode this week, as Kofie Yeboah (Fumble Dimension, Chillin' with Kofie) lets us know exactly how NOT to apply for college, as he manages to get rejected by eight colleges at once through the American university service Common App. It's an episode that's rife with rejection, as Stefan rejects Cyberpunk 2077, John rejects his Peloton instructor, and we discuss the Australian comedian who rejected a DM slide from a guy who was really into Australia's Funniest Home Videos. The Blocked Boys also manage to find time to discuss UPN's primetime lineup, prison breaks, smoke alarms, and Christmas songs.

If you want some more joy this Christmas, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month.

Episode 108: James Austin Johnson v. A Former Partner Dec 14, 2020

James Austin Johnson (comedian) joins the show by telling us before we start recording that "he doesn't have a very exciting Block Tale" and then it turns out to be one of the most personal and messy Block Tales in show history, as him and a former comedy writing partner turn on each other and lawyers get involved. It's high drama on an episode full of it, as the Blocked Boys get into windshield decals, regional dialect, quarantine weight, getting divorced, Bobby Flay, "cannibal sandwiches", and John introduces a new character to the Blocked Party Twitterverse. And to top it all off, we're joined by a very special call-in guest, who has a lot of...thoughts on things. It's our longest episode ever, and worth every minute.

If you want to listen to even more minutes that are worth it, you can head over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you FOUR bonus episodes every month, including this week's bonus, another edition of our all-Cameo bonus episodes, Word Up, featuring past guest Olivia Stadler.

Episode 107: Claire McNear v. MC Hammer Dec 07, 2020

Claire McNear (author, The Ringer) joins us for a lesson in rookie journalism, as she gets blocked by MC Hammer for some, shall we say, unprofessional practices. Block: Hammer Time! Given Claire's new book is about Jeopardy!, the Blocked Boys take the opportunity to talk all things Jeopardy! with her, including John's Jeopardy! tweets, the show's audition process, the terrible anecdotes, and Celebrity Jeopardy!. And of course, the BBs still find time to talk their usual BS, as they get into the monoliths, #StoptheSteal, Pokémon, the apocalypse, and John tells the story about his tough day in a ninth-grade classroom this week.

If you want to forget about your tough days, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you all the BP business you can handle!

Episode 106: Demi Adejuyigbe v. The CW Nov 30, 2020

Demi Adejuyigbe (comedian, writer) gives us a double dose of blocks: one that makes a great deal of sense, and his feature block, The CW, which really doesn't. We help him try to get to the bottom of this baffling block as he gets blocked by an entire network that he has never interacted with once on Twitter. The rest of the episode is a bit less baffling, as the Blocked Boys go through some wild sects of the internet this week, as John attempts to buy crazytown.com and learns a whole lot about domains, a wholesome conversation about My Octopus Teacher turns into a lot of information about a lady who fell in love with a dolphin, Demi tells us about his gas station election celebration, and we figure out the true story behind how Harry Houdini died. Plus, John and Becca get a wonderful treat to celebrate their engagement from the Discord.

If you want to be a part of that marvellous Discord, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you Discord access PLUS three bonus episodes AND one live episode every single month. It's one of the best deals in podcasting.

It's all there, and it's all $5! Check it out.

Episode 105: Gina Harms v. A Comedian Nov 23, 2020

Gina Harms (comedian, Dear Pop Culture) joins the show for some more local comedy scene drama, as we get the scoop on open mic "hierarchy" and the entitlement of room-runners in a baffling and childish Block Tale. It's also a big episode this week for the Blocked Boys, as Stefan finally creates an Instagram account for his cat and John finally gives everyone what they want and proposes to Becca. Amidst stories of engagement, both in the very real, betrothed sense, and in the fake, online sense, we talk about proposing at ballparks, chaos meals, Princess Diana nostalgia, Stefan's mustache, and the Blocked Boys receive one of the weirdest pitches of all-time.

If you want to receive more weirdness, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes and ONE live episode every single month. This past week, we put out the third instalment of our beloved Trivia Party series with Chris James and Christine Bortolin, and this week ahead, you get the epic conclusion of our D&D adventure with Jamie Loftus and Branson Reese, a tale for the ages.

Episode 104: Arian Foster v. Jerry Rice Nov 16, 2020

Arian Foster (former NFL All-Pro running back, current Twitch/YouTube streamer and hip-hop artist) joins the show to let us know what can happen when you criticize an NFL legend on Twitter, even if you're an NFL All-Pro yourself. The episode discussion gets serious for a minute when we get into Arian's post-NFL career, as we chat about sitting down and talking to people you fundamentally disagree with, how giving pep talks changes with age, and the weirdness of being a philosophy major in the NFL. But as usual, the Blocked Boys also find time to mess around as we talk Valorant, e-Sports, Tito Ortiz, the Voter Fraud Hotline, fantasy football, Toy Story, and Arian's new life as a Dungeons & Dragons player.

If you need some more pep talks from the Blocked Boys, you can go to https://patreon.com/blockedparty and donate to the show. $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes and ONE live show every single month. This week, we'll be dropping Trivia Party 3 with two excellent guests and we just released a fantastic mailbag with fan favourite Grace Spelman. And speaking of Dungeons & Dragons, the exciting conclusion of our D&D series with Jamie Loftus and Branson Reese comes this month, as we see if we can manage to recover the sneakers in time to save Eddie Fastlane's life. It's all there, plus our entire back catalogue, newsletters, and a wonderful Discord, so check it out!

Arian Foster raps under the name Bobby Feeno and his latest, "A Late February", is available everywhere you get your music. He can be found on Twitch at https://twitch.tv/bobbyfeeno and on YouTube at https://youtube.com/bobbyfeeno. He's also on Twitter at @ArianFoster.

Episode 103: Brendan James v. Steven Crowder Nov 09, 2020

Brendan James (Blowback podcast) joins the show for another pile-on for conservative "comedian" and all-around numbskull Steven Crowder. This Block Tale goes deep into the early origins of Crowder's success and Brendan teaches us that sometimes, dunking on a conservative can have some unfortunate consequences. The rest of the episode is not unfortunate at all, as the Blocked Boys go in on quarantine hairstyles, video games, the Voter Fraud hotline, the whole Four Seasons thing, our favorite memories of Alex Trebek, and Becca buys John a birthday Cameo.

If you want to give yourself (and us) a present, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to three bonus episodes, one live episode, and our Discord.

Episode 102: Carla Mah v. Men on the Internet Nov 02, 2020

Carla Mah (improviser) joins us to talk about the unique and strange experience of being an Asian woman online, and how it leads to many blocks, almost all for the same reason. It's a spooky episode as we recorded mere hours from Halloween and we get into the once-in-73 years full moon on Halloween, and the rare "blue moon" phenomenon as well. The BBs are clearly affected by this blue moon, as John and Stefan get particularly feisty a few times this episode as we argue about fistfight strategies, movies, and Halloween candy. We also find time to go in on cheese fountains, Tyra Banks, Kim Kardashian, and Stefan gets John a birthday present.

If you want to give yourself a present, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. We just posted the third episode of Blocked Party D&D, where Jamie Loftus and Branson Reese join us on a wild adventure, and it gets hairy this month as we finally get into some combat.

So don't hesitate to get in on this sweet action!

Episode 101: Mack Gordon v. Blues Traveler Oct 26, 2020

It took 101 episodes, but Mack Gordon (actor) helps us get to one of the most notorious name-searchers on all of the Twitter [dot] com (who will absolutely block us once he finds this episode title), John Popper of Blues Traveler. He's such an easy block to catch that we have multiple Listener Blocks this week too! It's a 3-for-1! And it's all downhill from here as we contemplate life after episode 100 and it leads to a lot of memories of childhood food, as Mack reveals the weird foods he ate as a kid amidst tales of local haunts we loved and the "pey wet" viral video. Finally, the Blocked Boys also find some time to get into the death of Quibi, Stefan gets a new phone and some new soccer jerseys, and John leans into a week of Miley Cyrus takes.

If you want some new stuff too, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where we are going wild for bonus content this month that you can't get anywhere else. Last week, we posted our BPTV: CanCon episode with Jesse and Mike and followed that up with the video of John and Stefan drinking the nasty Canada Juice. This week, it's a special clips episode where the Blocked Boys remember the finer moments of the first 100 episodes with a ton of new commentary from the boys themselves, and you'll enjoy episode 3 of BPD&D with Branson Reese and Jamie Loftus. You won't want to miss any of it!

Mack Gordon is an actor who splits his time between Chicago and Vancouver, and his company, Theatre in the Dark, is currently performing a radio play based on H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds. Tickets can be purchased at https://www.theatreinthedark.com. Mack can be followed on Twitter at @MackGord.

Episode 100: A Celebration! Oct 19, 2020

We made it! We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate a century of Blocked Party episodes than by bringing a bunch of our favourite people on to PARTY (get it?) with us, and boy did we get spoiled! First things first, the Blocked Boys get absolutely jacked on the sugar-intense Canada Juice and we feel the rush with Cait Raft (comedian, Hot and Rich) as we talk about Stefan's new VR game idea and shitting his pants. Then, we're joined by Chris Locke (comedian, Happy Good) for an absolutely wild update on his life, as we learn that he was involved in a pretty crazy incident as a child that's affected him in a very surprising and positive way.

From there, it's Adam Christie (comedian) time, as we dig into our social media updates and learn how two girls' opinions on fruit snacks have converted Adam to Christianity, and John finally gets a dunk in on Stefan. And you know that we couldn't do a Block Tale without one of Twitter's finest pests, with Chris James joining us to give us the full story on how he's been blocked by Seb Gorka two different times and to give us a positive update, an "Anti-Block Tale", if you will, with Ken Marino.

And it's Episode 100, so we couldn't just leave you with a single top 3, no, we brought in two guests for two very different Top 3s. First, we're joined by Racquel Belmonte (improviser, Dragon Prince) for another of our horniest top 3s ever, and then Becca joins us to close things out with a very on-brand top 3 for the Blocked Boys, a way of reminiscing that only we could be capable of. And make sure to stay all the way to the end of the episode for a special surprise.

If you want even more special surprises, why not donate to the show in honour of 100 episodes over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month. We've been a bit late on bonus content this month, so we are releasing FOUR episodes in the next two weeks, including the making and drinking of the aforementioned Canada Juice, CanCon Live! with Jesse and Mike from YKS, our third instalment of BPD&D with Branson Reese and Jamie Loftus, AND John and Stefan are going to relive some of the show's best moments in an episode we're calling "100 Episodes, 100 Memories". We probably won't remember 100 things, because we're dumb. But anyway, support the show! We love you.

Episode 99: Maddy Kelly v. A Special Reply Guy Oct 12, 2020

Maddy Kelly (comedian) joins the show to tell us about a very unique "reply guy" situation, where she replies back and he isn't quite sure how to handle it. Maddy offers a lot of other great advice on this episode, like how to properly manage your Instagram, how to slide into her DMs, how to go viral on TikTok, and how to order at McDonald's if you're a hot girl. Elsewhere, the Blocked Boys reveal their usual amount of knowledge (very little) as we discuss hot mascots, monocles, manicured lawns, Putt-Putt games, mayors in Korn masks, and the Poplitics girl getting diagnosed with COVID.

And hey! It's the Centennial Celebration Month here at BP, and we are celebrating our 100th episode in style, as we've got FOUR bonus episodes coming your way at https://patreon.com/blockedparty. This month, we are gonna drink that vile Canada Juice, Stefan and John are gonna reminisce about 100 episodes of the show, we're gonna have our third instalment of BPD&D, and the YKS Boys are gonna join us for a BPTV episode where we get them to take a look at a bunch of CanCon. You won't wanna miss it, and you can access it all for $5/month over on our Patreon!

And if you want some more comedy content, John's new album, "Long Stories for No Reason", is out THIS FRIDAY! October 16th. Mark your calendars, it's gonna be a good time and it'll be available everywhere you get your music and comedy.

Episode 98: Cole Hersch v. Tobey Maguire Oct 05, 2020

Cole Hersch (writer, Podcast But Outside) joins the show with one of the earliest-in-life Block Tales we've had, as he got blocked by Spider-Man himself, Tobey Maguire, on AOL Instant Messenger when he was 11. It's a saga with many twists and turns and leaves us with a mystery that will need some experts to solve. The rest of the show leaves no mystery though, as the Blocked Boys are eager to shake off their good behaviour from last week and it gets wild early and often. The BBs start with some more Shark Tank/Dragons Den talk as Stefan pitches a new hangover cure and Cole pitches a new version of the show entirely, and that leads to a discussion of new condoms for different body parts. Cole then tells us the story of how he went viral pitching a new mascot to Saddleback College, John gets introduced to a cursed TikTok, and Stefan's social media update gets so intense it leads to a very special surprise at the end of the episode you won't wanna miss.

If you want more fun surprises, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month. Of course, this is the Blocked Party Centennial Celebration Month and we are going all out. John and Stefan are going to finally make and drink the cursed Canada Juice, we are going to have Jesse and Mike on for a LIVE BPTV episode with exclusively Can(adian)Con(tent), and our D&D series with Branson Reese and Jamie Loftus continues! We have some other fun surprises planned for the month you won't wanna miss so check it out!

And hey, John's new full-length comedy album, "Long Stories for No Reason" is out next Friday, October 16th on Comedy Records. Look for it on Spotify, Apple Music, or anywhere else you get your music.

Episode 97: Jemele Hill v. Travis Tritt Sep 28, 2020

Who knew the Kentucky Derby VIP section could be a source of consternation? We learn just how, as Jemele Hill (The Atlantic, Jemele Hill is Unbothered) tells us the story of her positive meeting with country star Travis Tritt over mint juleps and how it didn't seem to matter to him later on, as he blocked Jemele for having opposing political views (we think). Speaking of politics, this episode doesn't shy away, as we get into what the mentions of someone with 1.3 million followers looks like, how Trump's divisiveness has affected social media, and how the goalposts for how a President should act are constantly shifting. But hey, we're the Blocked Boys and we also find time for silly stuff like Doritos, 2009 Twitter, old class photos, and we dig into Vancouver's Da Vinky Twins.

If you want to dig into some more Vancouver content, you can do so by donating to Vancouver's own at http://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month. This month was a doozy as we released the second edition of BP D&D with Jamie Loftus and Branson Reese, we did another all-Cameo bonus episode with Taylor Lorenz, and a great mailbag with Lydia Burrell. Plus, we've got our Centennial Celebration coming up next month with tons of sweet bonus goodies coming your way, so don't delay! You'll also get access to our entire back catalogue and our super sweet Discord server, one of the best deals in podcasting, baby!

Episode 96: Sarah Ramos & Caroline Goldfarb v. Jonathan "Foodgod" Cheban Sep 21, 2020

It's only the second time ever that the BP Studios have been graced with two guests on one main episode, but it's a special occasion as we have Sarah Ramos (actor, filmmaker) and Caroline Goldfarb (comedian, writer) join us to tell us all about their new show, The Renner Files, and their block by the man who is famous for being friends with Kim Kardashian. It's a shameless Block Tale that will go down in the annals of show history as one of the best, and this episode is one of the best too, an "all-timer" in Stefan's words, as the Blocked Boys talk Peep This Out facemasks, getting old, and we learn more about how Stefan ended Jeremy Renner's vanity app. Plus, we get into the very upsetting RBG tributes, fizzy drinks, wet eggs in a bag, and Becca gets her very own theme song.

Speaking of theme songs, our bonus episodes have some pretty amazing ones, and you can hear them (and the episodes) at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month. Last week, we released our latest edition of Word Up! with Taylor Lorenz, where we delve into the world of TikTok Cameos, and this week, we have the continuation of our BPD&D series, as Branson Reese and Jamie Loftus join us for a wonderful adventure in a mythical city. Plus, that $5 gets you access to our top-secret Discord server, all of our back catalogue of bonus episodes, and celebrations next month for our 100th episode that you won't wanna miss.

Episode 95: Jack Allison v. Hoarse Wisperer Sep 14, 2020

It's here. The most requested Block Tale in the history of the show is finally here, as Jack Allison (JackAM, Struggle Session) joins the Blocked Boys to talk about the Hoarse Wisperer saga. We get all the gritty details from their initial dealings with each other to Jack finding out the anonymous centrist horse's real identity to the epic conclusion, where Jack raises $125k for Bernie Sanders under the guise of Mr. HW and then trademarks the Hoarse Wisperer title, forcing him to swap his Twitter handle. It's an online story for the ages and one built for this program, 95 episodes young. And we don't stop there, as we find time to talk about Denis Leary's Pumpkin Spice tweet, the Chris Evans mishap, John getting DMCA'ed, Jack impersonating a high school quarterback, and Stefan pays John $140 to watch a Badlands Chugs video.

If you also like paying for the content you're dying to hear, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. We just released a mailbag with fan fave Lydia Burrell this past week, and this week, we'll have the video from our live show with Taylor Lorenz, where she introduces us to the world of TikTok on Cameo, and it's...very bad. Plus, we've got Episode 2 of BPD&D coming up later this month, and our Centennial Celebration happens in October too! You won't wanna miss out.

Episode 94: Brian Gaar v. Chuck Woolery Sep 07, 2020

Brian Gaar (comedian) joins the show to talk about getting blocked by America's favorite game show host over his "pain-free catheter" line of products, and this episode delves into other pain as we chat about Producer Dan's illness. But it's not all pain and sadness as we go back in on one of our favorite targets, Frank D'Angelo, and we learn about Nick Cannon's line of headphones. Plus, the C-List celebrity dunks don't stop there, as we find time for Chet Hanks and Jim Davis amidst talk of awful Chadwick Boseman tributes and the Donald Trump boat parade.

If you want to be in a much better parade, you can join all of the greats over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE wonderful bonus episodes every month. This week, we'll have a mailbag from our friend Lydia Burrell for you to enjoy, plus we're going live again, this time with Taylor Lorenz, as we watch some horrid celebrity Cameos. And we'll see the second episode of BPD&D, where our friends Jamie Loftus and Branson Reese join us for a game of Dungeons & Dragons. It's all happening now and you don't wanna miss out!

Episode 93: Becca v. A Married Guy Aug 31, 2020

The time has come. A guest that has been requested for many moons (both hexed and not), John's partner Becca (writer) joins the show to get into it with the Blocked Boys about the time a married guy got aggressive with her in the DM. The BBs don't waste time getting aggressive elsewhere on the show, as the familiarity they have with Becca leads to some intimate conversations about body hair, pets, our parents, and the first time we touched ourselves. We also learn a lot about open mic comedians, John singing Alanis Morissette, and Producer Dan's infamous encounter with Vancouver's auspicious Uber Eats-only restaurant, Brick 'N' Cheese.

If you want to have an infamous encounter with us, you're very likely to do so over on our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE exclusive bonus episodes every single month. This past week, we officially launched BPD&D, the series where Stefan and John play Dungeons and Dragons with Branson Reese, Jamie Loftus, and Joshua Buergel, with hilarious results.

https://patreon.com/blockedparty for the full episode!

Hey everyone, thanks for listening to the show. Very cool of you to do. We promise posting Patreon previews won't turn into any sort of regular thing, but we thought we'd give you a sneak peek at our recent Patreon bonus episode release, BPD&D. It's an idea we've been percolating on for a while, and when our two great friends Jamie Loftus (Bechdel Cast, My Year in Mensa, Robot Chicken) and Branson Reese (Rude Tales of Magic) agreed to do it, it was a no-brainer for us. Luckily, one of our listeners, Joshua Buergel, is also a renowned board game designer (Fox in the Forest) who was recommended by the Spiel des Jahres and is a huge D&D fan.

As an added bonus, if you subscribe between now and September 1st, you'll be entered into a draw to win a free BP T-Shirt! Fun all around. We hope you'll join us.

Episode 92: Racquel Belmonte v. Ronnie Ortiz-Magro Aug 24, 2020

What do you get when you cross two guys who are recording their third podcast episode of the day and entering some sort of fugue state with a guest who doesn't understand espresso has more caffeine than coffee and drinks an entire mug of it? You get this chaotically horny episode of the show, as Racquel Belmonte (comedian, voice actor) uses her wellspring of energy to drag the Blocked Boys into her scandalous tale of being blocked by one of the cast members of Jersey Shore. It's a fitting block for the other trashy discussion on the episode, as John accidentally finds the dildo he got sent to him during the #FunkoPopChallenge in the studio. Plus, we find time to talk Bronies, POV fantasies, plastic surgery, and an Australian MP liking a pornbot account. Like we said. It got horny. But fun!

If you want to get more horny for BP content, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. We just released the BPTV video episode with Derek and dril and coming up this week, it's the debut episode of BP D&D, where John and Stefan are joined by Branson Reese (Rude Tales of Magic) and Jamie Loftus (My Year in Mensa, Bechdel Cast) to play Dungeons and Dragons. It's gonna be a four-month series and the adventure is just getting started with an absolutely wild first episode you won't wanna miss.

Episode 91: Tony Boswell v. Culture Abuse Aug 17, 2020

Tony Boswell (Minion Death Cult) proves the theory that if you name your band something as dumb as "Culture Abuse", then you probably are very bad at tweeting, being online, and just generally being cool about getting mentioned in a story about a bee sting. It's a hot one in SoCal for Tony and at BPHQ for the Blocked Boys, and the heat inspires talk of box fans and Dragons Den, as the BBs hit another deep dive on everyone's favourite Canadian reality TV show. Plus, we touch on the realities of Black Lives Matter organizing in a small town, bad NHL jerseys, Joyce Carol Oates' horrific blisters and even worse keyboard, and John makes his pitch to get Tony Hawk onto the show in 2021.

If you have a normal person's keyboard and want to put it to good use, you can do so by heading over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to three EXCLUSIVE bonus episodes every month, including the recently announced, multi-month series BP D&D, where we've invited past favourites Branson Reese and Jamie Loftus on for some insane adventures through the world of Dungeons and Dragons.

Episode 90: Libby Watson v. Glenn Thrush Aug 10, 2020

Libby Watson (writer, The New Republic) joins the show as we begin the countdown to the big 100 with one of our favorite types of blocks, one from a man who loves to wear bad hats! We strike a victory for the Bad Hat Haters, as Libby makes fun of his demotion for being a creep and manages to get blocked by his writing partner as well. We double your fun on this episode, and the Blocked Boys also find time to double down on Garfield Eats with a phenomenal listener block. Elsewhere on the show, we get into video game speedruns, villages of the UK, maskless dating, the worst pizza we've ever seen, and we learn that real men do, in fact, control their bowels.

If you are in control of your life, you can really show it off by donating to us at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where we have lots of exciting things happening this month. We just posted a bonus episode with Kath Barbadoro where John gets blocked by a Minor League baseball team, and we've got a super special, multiple-episode feature launching at the end of August you won't wanna miss.

It's $4/month just for newsletters (5 per month!), $5 just for bonus episodes (3 per month!), or $8 for both! It's fun for the whole family and we've got tons of great content planned for the coming months, so join us, won't you?

Episode 89: Jacob Samuel v. Garfield Eats Aug 03, 2020

Jacob Samuel (comedian) joins the show for only our second fully in-studio episode since March, and we waste no time getting down to business, as Jacob has a run-in with the Chief Entergagement Officer of Toronto's weird, Garfield-themed Uber Eats restaurant over a role in a movie the CEO was funding. Everything in that sentence is somehow true, and we break it all down for you in the Block Tale. The Blocked Boys also find some time to meander, as we discuss the curling emoji, pets, Vancouver politics, ice cream, and Stefan tries to reclaim his throne as the man with the worst takes in podcasting. It doesn't go well.

What does go very well with this episode, however, is some more Blocked Party! Head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month, including our latest, an all-Cameo bonus episode with Brandon Wardell and Jack Wagner.

Episode 88: Katherine Krueger v. Jomny Sun Jul 27, 2020

It's another block that's taken a surprisingly long time to get to, given everyone's favorite positivity alien has one of the quickest block fingers online, but Katherine Krueger (writer/editor) joins us to talk about her very early days of Twitter, highlighted by a block from Jomny/Jonny/Jobny Sun/Sum/Sudn. After meditating on it, Katherine comes away feeling fine, and we finally get to read the slew of listener blocks we have from Jonny as well. The Blocked Boys also dive into the world of Cameo on main (it's the horny on main equivalent for us), the animal tweet going around this week, childhood trauma songs, Stefan's back on Twitter, baby! and we get a glimpse into what gets Tori Amos going.

If you really wanna get going, you can donate to our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you so much good stuff. Three bonus episodes every month. Access to our super-secret, super-awesome Discord server. And our undying love.

Becca, John's girlfriend, made her Guest Letter debut this past week and it was fantastic.

We've also got our most recent Hell Block with fan fave Adam Christie live now, and if going Cameo on main wasn't enough for you, we've got another all-Cameo bonus episode coming out this week with the sweet boys Brandon Wardell and Jack Wagner from the Yeah, But Still podcast.

Episode 87: David J. Roth v. Donald J. Trump Jul 20, 2020

It's a bit shocking that it's taken us 87 episodes to get here, but folks, we finally have the big man himself, the damn Cheeto-in-Chief, in our sights, as our guest, David Roth (writer, Deadspin) joins us to talk about the time he got blocked by Donald Trump. It's a fantastic Block Tale driven by Trump's own idiocy and a worthy first-time appearance on the pod for the POTUS. But don't worry, we're well-aware we are also full of our own idiocy, as the Blocked Boys find time to get into Witch Twitter, Tom Cruise, cognitive testing, the viral mummy, the 2003 film Biker Boyz, and Stefan is still locked out of his Twitter after Friday's blue checkmark fiasco.

If you no longer want to be locked out, you can subscribe to our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. John finally ate his Big Mac this month and we filmed it, Michael Hale and Jesse Farrar from YKS joined us for a mailbag, and we're introducing some brand-new bonus content: The Guest Letter! Previously, $4/month got you newsletters from Stefan and John and $8/month got you those newsletters plus the bonus episodes. But we decided it wasn't enough! Starting in August, for those same donation tiers, you'll also get newsletters written by guests! Some will be high-profile writers, others will be budding writers from our own community, it's gonna be great. Start your morning with a BP Newsletter, why don't you?

Episode 86: Ginny Hogan v. A Twitter Psycho Jul 13, 2020

Ginny Hogan (comedian, author) joins us for an episode that gets weirdly topical for BP, as John gets a COVID test and we dig into the very odd Wayfair conspiracy. And that's not the only conspiracy theory we dig into, folks. ToppingsGate once again rears its ugly head, as Ginny is forced to wade into the "are sauce and cheese pizza toppings?" debate and she presents a new angle that forces Stefan to dig that hole even deeper. Plus, the Blocked Boys find time to tackle John's Peep This Out video, Ginny's viral tweet, John's Jeopardy! tweet, and adult psychos who most definitely have COVID and attended Disney World anyway. And this is without mentioning Ginny's Block Tale, where a 70 year-old man lets loose on Twitter, follows her to email, and is just, well...a 70 year-old man online. It's a wild episode.

Speaking of wild episodes, if you want even more of this delicious content, you can subscribe to our bonus feed over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE tasty bonus episodes every single month. Of course, this week, we finally debuted John's long-awaited Peep This Out impression in a video episode called, "Take a Look at THIS!" to rave reviews (most people were disturbed by it), and we have a mailbag episode out this week with our pal Michael Hale from YKS. PLUS, we've got a Cameo bonus episode coming this month with some very special guests and it's gonna be a busy July for the BBs. $5 and it's all yours!

Ginny Hogan is an author and a comedian whose book, Toxic Femininity in the Workplace, is out now. You can follow her on Twitter at @GinnyHogan_.

Episode 85: Ike Barinholtz v. Jimmy John's Jul 06, 2020

Ike Barinholtz (The Mindy Project, The Hunt) joins us for a rare double block against two monstrous human beings: the guy who owns Jimmy John's (makes bad sandwiches, bad guy) and Sebastian Gorka (eats a lot of sandwiches, bad guy), as neither one of these ghouls likes to be called out for being a ghoul, and Ike pays with a pair of blocks. The Blocked Boys learn quite quickly that Ike shares Stefan's affinity for Peep This Out, and the BBs tackle YouTube food reviewers, bad Cameos, the U.S. Army eSports team, weird pregnancy photoshoots, and Ike goes off on Kanye West.

If you want to feel like a VIP at Jackson Hole but don't wanna hang with Kanye, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to all of our exclusive bonus content, including, finally, THIS WEEK, John plays Ian K. as he eats his first-ever Big Mac and reviews it, Peep This Out-style.

Episode 84: Brandon Ash-Mohammed v. His Family Jun 29, 2020

Brandon Ash-Mohammed (comedian) joins the show for the first time right after hosting a virtual Pride Parade and the Blocked Boys learn a lot as they get into the TLC Tugger, Prince Alberts, and Brandon dons his "Gay Sorting Hat" to identify their status in the Gay community. Here's a spoiler: Stefan learns he's in a new category! The show also features a Block Tale that has its roots in France, as Brandon is forced to block his entire family on Facebook after sharing a racy ad. PLUS! Stefan has a busy week online with the Parler app and John introduces the show to Cheese Wife.

If you want to have a busy week online, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE shiny bonus episodes every single month. We just released our live show with Cait Raft where we review the Canadian TV show Whistler, we did a Cameo episode earlier this month with Emma Wong, and coming up very soon: John eats his first-ever Big Mac and films a review of it, Peep This Out-style. You won't wanna miss it.

Episode 83: Chris James v. The Go Off Kings Jun 22, 2020

Whether he's playing the triangle, the square, or the fiddle, Chris James (comedian, Not Even a Show) is always a fan favourite, and this episode is wild off the hop as some changed plans result in a remote episode with one of our closest friends. The Blocked Boys' familiarity with Chris results in a lot of one-upmanship in the beginning of the show as they piece together how Chris ended up on this episode, and we talk about Father's Day, Twitter mentions, Queensryche, and dunking on Conservatives. Of course, the real spice of the show happens with the Block Tale, as Chris, the unofficial "Fourth King", details the story of how he got blocked from the Go Off Kings' Twitch stream, and why Stefan was being unfair.

One way to ensure you never get blocked by us is to donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month and this month is a DOOZY. We recorded an all-new Cameo bonus episode with Emma Wong, we watched the trashy Canadian primetime soap opera Whistler with Cait Raft, and coming up soon, John eats his first-ever Big Mac in the style of Peep This Out. It's only getting wilder as we are introducing a brand-new series in July commissioned by a listener, and of course your donation gets you access to our entire back catalogue PLUS our Discord. It's gonna be a Blocked Boy Summer.

Chris James hosts the Twitch show No Prank Radio every Thursday/Sunday and is the host of the prank show Not Even a Show, airing every week on YouTube. He is on Twitter at @TheCJS.

Episode 82: Savannah Erasmus v. Her Ex Jun 15, 2020

We're back in studio again and this time, everyone is here! We're joined by our first in-studio guest in three months, Savannah Erasmus (comedian), who has the most powerful block in the show's history, a flex that will be talked about for episodes to come. We also talk dating in quarantine, Paw Patrol, the Royal Family, The Last of Us 2, and John gets contracted to do a very strange gig. PLUS! We lay plans for a Dan-only episode and talk about the celebrities we had crushes on as kids.

If you want us to have a crush on you, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month (plus access to the whole back catalogue!

It's gonna be a good month, don't miss out.

Episode 81: Alex Goldman v. Zappin_Liberals Jun 08, 2020

The Blocked Boys are back, baby! In studio, that is. With the COVID restrictions in BC allowing social gatherings of up to 6, the BBs get together in the BPHQ Studio for the first time since March, and we haven't missed a beat. Well, we think, anyway. And who better to celebrate our return with than one of our most popular guests ever, the returning Alex Goldman (Reply All), who treats us to a lovely Block Tale as he gets blocked by some right-wing account called, and we are not making this up, @Zappin_Liberals. The BBs also have some time to talk childhood memories, New York Times op-eds, Boogie Cousins' best dunk, and the most cathartic moment of the Black Lives Matter/Defund the Police movement thus far.

If you're in search of more cathartic moments, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where your money will get you access to three bonus episodes every month. This month, we've got a Cameo episode coming up AND John will finally film his tribute to Peep This Out!, as he tries his first Big Mac ever. Conversely, you could ignore all that and donate to a worthy cause in support of the Black Lives Matter movement, or a women's shelter in your area. If you have enough money to support those causes and us, wonderful. If you don't, I think we all know where your money should go, and it isn't to us.

Alex Goldman is the co-host of the podcast Reply All and you can look for his new project, The Scaredy Cat Horror Show, out now on Spotify. He can be followed on Twitter at @AGoldmund.

Episode 80: Grace Spelman v. Kevin Spacey Jun 01, 2020

In an episode that was recorded a week ago and thus feels like it was recorded eons ago, Grace Spelman (writer, musician) joins the show to talk about being blocked by Kevin Spacey, but not for any of the reasons you'd suspect. Call it serendipitous for Grace, given what we learned about Mr. Spacey after, but a very funny block nonetheless. As we said, this episode was recorded in what feels like a more breezy time, when the world was wracked by a devastating virus, and we find some time to touch on that as John shares one of the craziest COVID stories we've heard yet. The Blocked Boys also get into trips to Disney theme parks, video games, musicians we could beat up, and Stefan brings back "Real or Fake", but this time with Marilyn Manson quotes.

CW: This episode features a brief retelling of the Mr. Buckles story, which contains a story of animal death (no cruelty or violence). This story is told from 47:35-48:55, if you wish to avoid it.

You can also donate to our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty. We do bonus episodes there, it's fun. You could also instead donate to any one of the numerous worthy causes that need your help right now, whether it be for bailing protestors out of jail or supporting the Black/Indigenous community where you live. We stand with those communities and with those who are standing up in protests across the nation.

Grace Spelman's new show "That's My Jam" is coming out soon, and she can be followed on Twitter and Instagram at @GraceSpelman.

Episode 79: Charles v. John Podhoretz May 25, 2020

Our one-named friend Charles (@Ugarles, Hostile Witness podcast) makes his show debut having an argument about religion with noted dumbass and bad Twitter guy John Podhoretz that follows the classic "I've lost this argument, so I will block you instead of admitting defeat" pattern, and it's a delight. Recording the episode a little earlier in the day than usual gets the Blocked Boys talking about coffee as Stefan ponders his new life in a gaming chair. The BBs also find time to talk about the MCU and Star Wars before the social media updates get truly wild and we get into sovereign citizen videos, the Armageddon commentary track, and Stefan has a surprise for John from an old friend.

We love old friends but we also love new friends, and if you want to be one of our new friends, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. This month, however, we're stepping it up to FOUR in the name of content in the time of Covid. And it's sweet content too, as we get a Clara Jeffery block trifecta on a bonus episode with Street Fight Radio's Bryan Quinby, and coming up this week, we debut our brand-new episode type HIGH FIVERR, where we look at all the worst things the gig commerce website Fiverr.com has to offer. We have even bigger plans for June, so you won't wanna miss it!

Charles is the host of the Hostile Witness podcast and can be followed on Twitter at @Ugarles.

Episode 78: Ashley Feinberg v. Lena Dunham May 18, 2020

Ashley Feinberg (writer) makes her first appearance on the show a memorable one, as she gives us one of the best Block Tales of all-time, a block that starts in the emails and ends up on Twitter as she questions Lena Dunham's weird relationship with her pets. Speaking of weird relationships, John tells Stefan and Ashley about the dream he had the night before involving the podcast and Phoebe Bridgers, amidst reminiscing on the childhood game of jinx. The BBs also manage to find time to tackle Ron Jeremy saving a tree, Brendan Fraser, Stefan pranking Your Kickstarter Sucks using Animal Crossing, and an r/relationships post involving roleplay.

If you want to roleplay as an extremely cool person, you can do so by donating to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to a bunch of delightful bonus goodies including access to our Discord and THREE bonus episodes every month. And hell, this month, we're doing FOUR bonus episodes because of quarantine times, with two already posted--a mailbag with Producer Dan and our live show with Will Weldon--and two to come, including one with Street Fight Radio's Bryan Quinby this week and another that will debut a brand-new bonus episode type, all about the website Fiverr. It's gonna be a big month and you don't wanna miss it!

Ashley Feinberg is a writer for Slate known for her internet sleuthing and can be found on Twitter at @AshleyFeinberg.

Episode 77: Lydia Burrell v. Ryan Saavedra May 11, 2020

Lydia Burrell (musician, comedian) joins the show and since Stefan failed to explain the concept of the show to him properly, delivers a litany of blocks including Steven Crowder and his own governor before concluding with his favourite, right-wing reporter Ryan Saavedra. LB just couldn't help pointing out to Saavedra that he resembles a certain reptile, and well...it goes from there. This episode is equally all over the place, as LB shares the worst COVID-19 parody songs from YouTube, Stefan shares the worst TV theme song of all-time and a thriller movie trailer with an unlikely star, and John tells a joke so heinous that we're forced to introduce a brand-new $500 Patreon tier for it.

You know what doesn't cost $500? A monthly donation to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where in fact just $5 gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month, including this week's bonus episode where Producer Daniel makes his show debut in an exclusive mailbag episode where we answer YOUR listener questions! There are some shocking admissions and it gets truly crazy. Plus, the video bonus episode of Blocked Party TV with Will Weldon, and some more wonderful things are all coming up later this month! Join today!

Lydia Burrell hosts both a Twitch stream and radio show called "Big Howell and Possum", and his musical comedy can be found on YouTube. He is on Twitter at @LydiaBurrell.

Episode 76: Molly Lambert v. SKD Knickerbocker May 04, 2020

Molly Lambert (writer, Night Call) scoops up one of the most prestigious blocks in an election year: the Public Affairs Agency that represents Joe Biden and many others, after she discovers one of their prime tactics for “managing crisis” (it’s dumb and bad). It’s some serious political talk, but we manage to temper that with our usual silliness, as the Blocked Boys get into elementary school Sports Day, creating weird beverage combos as kids, and a brand-new Patreon tier: John drinks the Ben Bartch chaos smoothie. We also tackle Canadian television, Megan McArdle’s insane coronavirus theory, and John ends the show with another one of his classic “bad food opinions”.

If you want more bad opinions (but great content), you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to three bonus episodes every single month! Plus our whole back catalogue! By the time you listen to it all, we’ll be licking each other’s ice creams again! After a long wait, we finally have the video episode up where Stefan teaches John how to play Hearthstone, and this month, we’ll have the Will Weldon video bonus episode from last Friday where we watch a bunch of strange internet stuff together, a mailbag, and much more. You also get access to our Discord for the $5, a great and fun server with a wonderful community. Join today!

Molly Lambert is a writer and podcaster who hosts the very popular Night Call podcast with Tess Lynch and Emily Yoshida. She can be found on Twitter at @mollylambert.

Episode 75: Branson Reese v. Scott Adams Apr 27, 2020

One of our favourite targets is BACK, baby! Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, returns with a vengeance, and Branson Reese (artist, Rude Tales of Magic) is here to tell us how he managed to get blocked by the trigger-happy cartoonist turned horny, right-leaning weirdo. This episode gets wild right off the hop, as the boys reminisce about a story submitted to their previous podcast regarding Mr. Buckles, a child's pet who met a very tragic end, and it only gets wilder from there as we delve into the chaos breakfast of an NFL offensive tackle draftee, fighting with your childhood friends over video games, and the chonky baby. Plus, Stefan walks us through his crazy week on Twitter, as he tricked multiple journalists into thinking the Steak'Umms Twitter guy was the son of Branch Davidian leader David Koresh. Like we said, this episode is wild.

CW: this episode contains a story about animal death, however, there is no cruelty or abuse involved. It is found on the show from 4:00-11:20, if you wish not to hear it.

Something you might wish to hear though? Bonus episodes! That's right! Bonuses! More of this show! Head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty for THREE bonus episodes every damn month.

Episode 74: Graham Clark v. The Cast of American Pie Apr 20, 2020

Graham Clark (comedian, Stop Podcasting Yourself) returns to the show and does something few of our guests have tried to do, in that he tries to get blocked just so he can be on the program. Not only does the brave Graham try to get blocked, but he tries to get blocked by the entire cast of 1999 teen horndog film American Pie, and resorts to bribery to do it. Is he successful? You'll have to listen to find out. Before Graham even reveals his Block Tale, The Blocked Boys talk 90s movies as John and Becca continue their rewatching of nostalgic classics, and that dovetails into talk of Harrison Ford, Will Smith, Keanu Reeves, and giant spiders. Elsewhere, we go in on cereal, candy, quarantine snacks, isolation protestors, Muppets, and Stefan's birthday.

If you want to celebrate like it's your birthday, you can do so by donating to our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every dang month. This month, we had the boys from Your Kickstarter Sucks on the show, plus we have our live bonus with Jamie Loftus coming up AND Stefan teaches John how to get even more online by learning the digital card game Hearthstone. We have a newsletter tier as well, where John revealed this week he's rewatching Entourage, and a great Discord community you can also get in on. Check it all out on Patreon right now and support your favourite BBs.

Episode 73: Alison Stevenson v. Mindy Kaling Apr 13, 2020

Alison Stevenson (writer, comedian) joins us to help get to the bottom of a mystery John calls "The Mindy Project": why did Mindy Kaling block her? It's another Block Tale where we try and help our guest get unblocked, as she cannot figure out how or why she got blocked and tries to enlist our help. Speaking of needing help, Stefan requires some help with his damn goatee, as he's finally given up on trying to grow a full quarantine beard and has now become a "Goatee Guy". The Blocked Boys also learn about the business of dick pics, who the New Hope Club are, and Stefan gives us an update on the COVID-19 truthers he talked about on the show a few weeks prior.

If you want to make sure you are always fully updated, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to THREE full bonus episodes, every single month. We have a big month coming up in April, as we try to bring some sweet medicine to your self-isolation in the form of a video episode featuring Stefan teaching John to play Hearthstone, a "live" episode watching bad Cameos with Jamie Loftus, and another edition of BPxYKS, where Jesse Farrar and Michael Hale join the boys for a fun hangout episode where we laugh and talk about the good ol' times. It's gonna be a great month and we appreciate all of your support during these weird times.

Alison Stevenson has a show on Adult Swim called The Perfect Women, and she will critique your dick pic on Twitter at @JustAboutGlad.

Episode 72: Eli Yudin v. ?uestlove Apr 06, 2020

Eli Yudin (comedian, What a Time To Be Alive) joins the Blocked Boys and it's clear they're all getting stir-crazy, as this is our longest episode to date, chatting about blocks you didn't know you had, especially when they're from people you respect as Eli gets blocked by the famed drummer from The Roots. With all this episode (and spare) time, the BBs cover a lot of topics: what to drink in the morning, cross-border references, Animal Crossing, Dragons Den, sports commentators, clothes we loved as kids, and Stefan shows John a series of gross images that John hates. What else is new?

You know what else is new? Our bonus content! You can donate to the show over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to THREE fresh bonus episodes every damn month. Last month, we recorded our last two in-person episodes as we watched some Cameos and did a mailbag, and we posted the audio from our live show with Chris James. This month, we have another live show coming up, plus Stefan teaches John how to play Hearthstone in an all-new video episode. It's gonna be a great one, and we appreciate all your donations in this difficult time. We hope you're keeping well.

Speaking of live shows, we have another one coming up THIS FRIDAY, April 10th, as we're gonna watch some terrible Cameos live with our good friend and fan fave Jamie Loftus. RSVP to live@blockedparty.com for an invitation to the show, which will be at 10 pm EST/7 pm PST.

And finally, you can follow Eli on Twitter @eliyudin and catch his Twitch stream at https://twitch.tv/pig_dog .

Episode 71: Nikki Glaser v. DM Sliders Mar 30, 2020

Nikki Glaser (comedian, "Bangin'" out now on Netflix!) gives us a glimpse into the DMs of a female celebrity, and it's uhh....not good. We delve into the push and pull of wanting to possibly meet the right person through the DMs, while also needing to deal with the full frontal assault from everyone else, as we look at four different times dudes unsuccessfully tried to strike up a conversation. It's another remote episode as Stefan and John are socially separated and Nikki is at home with her parents in St. Louis, so we discuss the merits of being quarantined with your partner as opposed to your parents, and Nikki ponders her potential cancellation over comments we make towards the old couple who drank aquarium cleaner and the TikTok guy who licked a toilet seat. Plus! Stefan and Nikki go in on John's dad energy, Nikki weighs in on Stefan's quarantine goatee, and John tells the embarrassing story of hitting on Nikki on Twitter in 2011.

If you don't want to be embarrassed, you could tell your friends that you donate $5 a month to our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where that donation gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every dang month! The social isolation hasn't slowed us down either, as we have FOUR bonuses this month, a Cameo episode with Christine Bortolin, a mailbag, a video recording of the live Zoom show we did on Friday, AND John finally acquiesces to Stefan's demands that he learn Hearthstone in another extra-special video episode. We know times are tight, but we appreciate all of your donations and we promise to keep the great content rolling over the next little while as we're all stuck indoors. So come join us on our descent into madness!

Episode 70: Kate Willett v. John Cusack Mar 23, 2020

Kate Willett (comedian) joins us for our first-ever fully remote episode, as John, Stefan, and Dan all observe social distancing despite living 5 minutes away from each other. The episode is understandably a bit COVID-heavy, as we make sense of this new world around us, ponder whether this will finally prompt the United States to make changes to their healthcare system, and worry that any sign of diarrhea will be a harbinger of bad things to come. But the Blocked Boys manage to stray off-topic too as we try to make some light of our situations and get into nephews, video games, cooking, and Kate tells us about self-isolating with a brand-new partner plus a very redemptive Block Tale.

If you want to redeem yourself in self-isolation, you can do so by donating $5/month to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty. That $5 will bring you our entire back catalogue, which features over 40 episodes and this week will bump up to 20 newsletters. Plus your $5 grants access to our Discord server, which has started its own quarantine content with some online gaming and a lively chat. We want to make sure you have all the Blocked Boy content you need in these trying times, and we're gonna keep producing bonus episodes as we can.

SPEAKING of bonus content, we're also going to be doing our first-ever Blocked Party Live!(ish) this FRIDAY, March 27th. Join us at 10 pm EST/7 pm PST on Zoom as we present the live show we wanted to do a week ago, but couldn't because of the virus. Send us your info at live@blockedparty.com and we'll make sure you get the invite for what should be a great show.

Episode 69: Jaya Sundaresh v. Jon Favreau Mar 16, 2020

It's episode 69 (nice), so you know what that means: it's one life cycle of the podcast, as Jaya Sundaresh (journalist, Jaya Time) brings it all back to where we started, by getting blocked by Pod Save America dweeb Jon Favreau. Like many before her, Jaya gained a following by dunking on him repeatedly, and we're all too happy to set her up for the alley-oop. You may think that's a cheap sports metaphor, but it's apt, as we hear from a listener who got blocked by OJ Simpson, and we only talk about the virus a little bit, as Stefan reveals his new plan for content in the wake of self-isolation, and John shares what he thinks is the best tweet of the corona saga so far.

I don't even need a fun tagline this week, because you're indoors and you need some content! Well, we have a whole lot. Only $5/month gets you access to our ENTIRE back catalogue, for those moments when you want to avoid getting sick in public by making yourself sick at home listening to us idiots. We will also have THREE new bonus episodes this month including this week, as we do another Word Up! Cameo episode with a new feature: we can see people's instructions for the celebs. It gets wild, and fan fave Christine Bortolin joins us to break it all down. Plus, that $5 gets you access to our Discord, the best darn community on the internet. So join us, we have lots of fun stuff waiting for you as we ride the 'Rona together.

Episode 68: Adam Christie v. ??? Mar 09, 2020

Adam Christie (comedian) refuses to tell the Blocked Boys who his block is, and the surprise paid off for us, so we figure it should have the chance to pay off for you in one of the more memorable Block Tales that ends with the three men in song. The Blocked Boys continue along their usual path of destruction, starting a little on the crude side but ending with the sweetest Top 3 yet. In between, we discuss Adam's new website, frequent flyer miles, Lunchables, parents, and John's album recording.

If you're hoping to reach 100K status with Blocked Party this year, you'll join the Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE amazing bonus episodes every month AND our top-secret Discord, which has a wonderful community. This past month, we did another all-Cameo bonus episode, we played trivia, and we finally did the video reveal of all 37 Funko Pops John received as part of the #FunkoPopChallenge. This month, we've got another Patreon goal reached, as John is forced to eat the first Big Mac of his life and review it, Ian K. style with a video review in his car in the style of Peep This Out!. It's gonna be a doozy and you won't wanna miss it!

Episode 67: Beth Stelling v. Her Ex-Stepdad Mar 02, 2020

Sweeps Month comes to an end with another huge guest, as Beth Stelling (comedian) joins us to break things off with her ex-stepdad quite a few years after her mom did, as she blocks him live on the show after one of the craziest Block Tales ever. It’s well-known old people cannot tell time, but he provides a crazy example, finally getting upset with a joke Beth told about him about seven years after she released it. The BBBs (Blocked Boys n’ Beth) don’t stop their targets there, as they aim their sights at dentists, veterinarians, veterinarian dentists, Michael Bloomberg, Love is Blind, and Stefan’s newest absolutely absurd take involving breakfast cereals that has to be heard to be believed.

One thing you don’t need to hear to believe is that donating $5 a month to our Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty will get you access to three phenomenal bonus episodes every month. February was our Sweeps Month and we pulled out all the stops, bringing in Chris Locke for an all-Cameo bonus episode, Jesse Farrar for Trivia Party 2, and we finally released the long-awaited Pop THIS Out! video episode, where John, Stefan, and Kevin Banner open all 37 of the terrible Funko Pops John received over the last two months. It’s insane! You gotta get over here!

Episode 66: Doughboys v. Hoarse Whisperer Feb 24, 2020

It's a podcasting crossover for the ages as we near the end of BP Sweeps Month, with the Doughboys themselves, Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell, joining the Blocked Boys in the studio. We discuss how being friends with Jack Allison is definitely very good but also led us all to be blocked by the famous Hoarse Whisperer, one of the worst Twitter accounts known to man (or horse). The Blocked (and Dough) Boys start the episode by talking about arcade games and Pokémon, and move into a bunch of our favorite subjects, like Funko Pops, auto-texts from candidates, Julian Castro, the heinous TV show Suits, and we are forced to apologize yet again for our actions through our apology medium of choice, Joey from Joey's World Tour.

One thing we will NOT apologize for is all the amazing bonus content we have available over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to our entire back catalogue, gets you access to the healthiest, happiest, and most fun Discord on the internet, AND gets you access to all of our special BP Sweeps Month bonuses. Those include an all-Cameo bonus episode with Chris Locke, a new episode of Trivia Party with Jesse Farrar, and this week, the #FunkoPopChallenge will finally meet its end, as John, Stefan, and Kevin Banner review all 37 Funko Pops John received in a very special video episode. It's all there for you to discover! Right now! Do it!

Episode 65: Charlie Demers v. Himself Feb 17, 2020

BP Sweeps Month continues with one of our most requested guests of all-time, Charlie Demers (author, comedian). Charlie has one of the more involved Block Tales ever, as he has an existential crisis over a tweet going viral, and decides to quit the platform entirely. The episode once again balances the serious with the hilarious, as we wonder what the point of social media is in 2020, while also appreciating its finer points, like a man getting his penis stuck in between train doors, the firing of Tanner Zipchen, and Instagram algorithms not understanding anything about us. And Charlie kicks off the episode with a bang, immediately coming after Stefan for his prosciutto/melon take, before ultimately getting sucked into Stefan’s gamesmanship and partnering up with him against John as the fruit takes get more and more insane.

If you want to partner up with Stefan, you can do so at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to an insane amount of bonus content. You get 3 bonus episodes every month, you get access to our Discord, which has been called one of the best places on the internet, and once you donate $50 lifetime, you get a free shirt! It’s wild! And we’re pulling out all the stops for Sweeps Month, as we have an all-Cameo episode up now with Chris Locke that has one of our funniest riffs of all-time, we have Trivia Party 2 coming out this week with YKS’ Jesse Farrar, and Kevin Banner will be joining us at the end of February for a video episode featuring the #FunkoPopChallenge, where John opens all 37 (!) Funkos he received over the last month. THE TIME IS NOW!

Episode 64: Carlos Maza v. Comfortably Smug Feb 10, 2020

BP Sweeps Month keeps bringing the heat as Carlos Maza (media critic, YouTube, Vox) learns that even if you want to win an ignominious award for being a liberal hack, you can’t stuff the ballot box, as he gets blocked by one of the worst Republicans on Twitter. Keeping Carlos updated about Cameo leads to some new insight on the dreaded website, and the Blocked Boys go in on BreadTube’s Reddit, Michael Bloomberg, our $1 million dollar Patreon goal, mustaches, and we get serious as Carlos has some thoughts on the 2020 Election. It’s not all serious though, as we end with one of the most memorable top 3s in show history as the BBs tap into their drag queen side.

If you want to create more memories with the show, you can do so by donating $5/month to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where that $5 gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. For BP’s Sweeps Month, we are going crazy, as we’re bringing on listener favourite Chris Locke for an all-Cameo bonus episode, we’re bringing back Trivia Party with Meg Walls as Jesse tries to win back some smart points for YKS, and John finally unveils all the gifts he received as part of the #FunkoPopChallenge. Donate today and don’t miss out on a moment of the magic!

Episode 63: Taylor Lorenz v. Lin-Manuel Miranda Feb 03, 2020

It's BP's Sweeps Month and Taylor Lorenz (New York Times) takes the beautiful lob pass we've thrown at her and dunks on one of Blocked Party's favorite targets, Lin-Manuel Miranda. We celebrate Taylor's block by playing another round of "Is This a Lin-Manuel Miranda Tweet?" that leaves Taylor and John completely stumped. The Blocked Boys, to continue this pointless basketball metaphor, drain 3s from everywhere as they talk about magic underwear, mechanical bulls, veganism, Caroline Calloway, The Hoarse Whisperer, and Stefan getting involved with Medicare twitter.

If you want to take your commitment to Blocked Party to overtime, you can head on over to https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to tons of amazing bonus content. As we said above, it's BP Sweeps Month, and we're going all out for February. High-powered guests, your favorite theme episodes, and John completing the #FunkoPopChallenge aren't to be missed, so head on over to our Patreon for what promises to be our biggest month ever!

Episode 62: Derek Estevez-Olsen v. George Shapiro Jan 27, 2020

Derek Estevez-Olsen (TruthPoint) joins us in studio for one of the best reaction moments in show history, as the #FunkoPopChallenge gets taken to an all-new level when John opens his Funko gift from Stefan. Elsewhere, the Blocked Boys talk curling, porno, Craigslist (but not Craigslist porno), Bone Bone (the cat not the porno), and the whitest possible response to Marshawn Lynch's last press conference of the season. And in our Block Tale, Derek tries really hard to get represented by Jerry Seinfeld's agent, and it ends in a block, though we discover George Shapiro does have the most old man Twitter of all-time.

If you don't want to be accused of being an old man online, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes, including this month's strong trifecta of a mailbag featuring John's girlfriend Becca, an all-Cameo bonus episode featuring Will Menaker of Chapo Trap House with our most insane Cameo ever, and coming up this week, John talks about getting blocked by Jalen Rose. It's the best deal in podcasting and we'd hate for you to miss out.

Episode 61: Christine Bortolin v. An Ex-Employee Jan 20, 2020

Christine Bortolin (improviser) returns for an episode that gets wild right out of the gate, as talk of the #FunkoPopChallenge goes sideways. John opens his first Funko Pop from a listener (and Christine brings him one as a gift!) and it leads to discussion about the hairy-faced twins from Mexico, whether or not there's Funko porn, and John's very least favourite subreddit. Elsewhere, Christine tells us of having to block a former employee of her work to spare him from constant tweets from them, and John shares what might be the greatest nutshot of all-time.

If you don't want to feel like you got hit in your precious parts, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month will get you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. This month, we've already brought John's girlfriend Becca on the show for a predictably wild and embarrassing mailbag episode, and this past weekend, Will Menaker from Chapo Trap House joined us to record another all-Cameo bonus episode, where we reveal the worst Cameo we've ever purchased. It'll be coming out this week and worth the $5 all on its own. We also release bi-weekly newsletters and give out t-shirts and you'll get access to our Discord server, one of the happiest places on the internet. So come on in. It's nice here.

Episode 60: Gavin Matts v. Chris D'Elia Jan 13, 2020

Gavin Matts (comedian) returns to deliver a double dose of D'Elia, though his block is a little more innocuous than Olivia Stadler's, as he tells Chris that another comedian is better than him. That's it. That's the whole block. Seems a bit sensitive by Chris. Speaking of sensitive, Chris D'Elia does not appear on this podcast, so if you're some weirdo from Norway who thinks he is and gives us a one-star review because he's not, that's the scoop. He's not on the show. What you WILL find on the show is the Blocked Boys going off on clown college, the Black Forest, Tony Hawk, and Stefan reveals who he thinks the sexiest train from Thomas the Tank Engine is. Plus, you'll find out why Gavin deleted all of his tweets, how he befriended Dan Nainan, and how he definitely remembered to prepare a Top 3.

If you want to be more prepared for this podcast, you can access all of our sweet bonus content over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every dang month. This week, we have a very special mailbag episode where we are joined by John's girlfriend, Becca! She does not disappoint, spilling all the beans about John and lots of BP history. That'll come out this week and next week, we've got another all-Cameo bonus episode on the way with a VERY special guest, so get in while the getting is good. PLUS, we have newsletters, some upcoming video episodes, and a $50 lifetime donation gets you a FREE Blocked Party shirt!

Episode 59: Ellen Cushing v. Taylor Swift Fans Jan 06, 2020

Ellen Cushing (The Atlantic) sparks the wrath of one of the worst online fanbases despite being a massive Taylor Swift fan herself, as the fans show Ellen no mercy for a fairly innocent Swift take, and it becomes pretty hard for her to look at her mentions and just shake it off. Ellen admits that she finds it very easy to fall into the rhythm of the show, which is to gang up on John with Stefan, and Stefan also announces his new year's resolution: to bring back that heinous mustache. Elsewhere, the Blocked Boys talk physical fighting as they plan a potential boxing match, John describes his disdain for the name Ellen, and we learn about Billionaire Magazine, the magazine for billionaires.

If you want to feel like a billionaire without actually making a billion dollars, you can donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month will get you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. We had a great December with the introduction of Trivia Party and the return of Ivan Decker, and January is going to be unbelievable, as we've got some VERY special guests lined up this month that people are going to love. Hop on in, enjoy the luxurious bonus content, access to our Discord, and knowing that you may be contributing to the Blocked Boys boxing. (say that three times fast)

Episode 58: The 2020 Blocked Party Enemies List Dec 30, 2019

It’s a new year and a new us, as we kick off the turn of the new decade by declaring our top 10 enemies for 2020. Enough with positive resolutions, it’s time that our enemies be identified and aware that we are not putting up with their shit in the new year. Stefan and John both come to the table with their 5 Most Hated, and then they work together to decide the official Blocked Party Top 10 Enemies of 2020. The BBs also talk about Stefan’s excursion to see the cursed movie “Cats”, and they both talk about their respective Christmases.

So get to it, Santa will be disappointed if you don’t.

Episode 57: Clare Belford v. Her Uncle Dec 23, 2019

Clare Belford (comedian) helps us understand that the time our mom added us on Facebook really wasn't as bad as we thought it was, because one time, her uncle added her on Instagram and it was...well, his profile was pretty horny. It's the perfect block for the holiday season, as the Blocked Boys throw some sleigh bells on the theme song, talk about family, and call it a Christmas episode. And what an episode it is, as the BBs dive back into Canadian small towns, the history of Boston Pizza, the CBC horse-raising soap opera Heartland, the most pleasant exchange about video gaming on the internet, and John gives out his first-ever Peen Nuts business card on the air.

If you want to give a great Christmas gift this year, why not donate $5/month to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty where that donation will get you access to THREE bonus episodes every month.

We work really hard to bring you only the best in bonus content, and when you reach a $50 lifetime donation, we send you a shirt. Santa loves deals I think I heard in an ad, so hop on this one!

Episode 56: Taz VanRassel v. His Dad's Friend Dec 16, 2019

Taz VanRassel (improviser, The Sunday Service) picks up a block in a surprising place: from a senior citizen! We didn't even know they knew how to block, but an ironic swear word in a Facebook post does the trick as Taz's dad gets served with a paragraph-long explanation for the block. The Blocked Boys also learn from Taz what it's like to go on a tour of elementary schools doing improv while also hitting on vapes, kombucha, gym class, bears, police poetry, and we run through the most wholesome top 3 ever: houseplants.

If you want some more wholesome content, you can get it by donating $5/month at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where your five dollars gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month! This month, we are going wild with an all-Cameo bonus episode, a brand-new bonus episode format where we play trivia with our good friend Michael Hale (Your Kickstarter Sucks), and Stefan and John answer listener questions in a new mailbag, which will be out this week. We also have newsletters and other fun stuff, and if you donate $50 lifetime, we'll send you a free shirt! We're cool like that. Come be cool like us.

Episode 55: Jamie Loftus v. Mensa Dec 09, 2019

Jamie Loftus (writer, Bechdel Cast) returns to give us a sneak peek of her new show, "My Year in Mensa", by detailing the time she went to a Mensa thing called "Nerd Camp" and got blocked from a very weird alt-right Mensa Facebook group as a result. It is both one of the most detailed and insane Block Tales to ever be told on the show. And the goodness this week does NOT stop there, as Stefan details his couple of days where he pretended to get a Baby Yoda Tattoo, dragging John and a bunch of our listeners along with him in a crusade against the man who couldn't understand irony. The Blocked Boys also hear from the kid who called Doug Ford a timbit, the totally bonkers Christmas movie Jack Frost, and Jamie helps us revisit one of the most beloved top 3s of all-time.

TW: This episode contains discussion (albeit light-hearted) of stillbirth and miscarriages from 27:05 to 36:19.

If you want be beloved, you can do so by donating $5/month to the BBs at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where that donation gets you THREE bonus episodes every month. This month, we've brought back listener favorite Ivan Decker to look at some insane celebrity Cameos with us, and this week, we will be debuting a BRAND NEW bonus episode format: Trivia Party! That's right, the boys get challenged by a $100 donor to a trivia contest, and they bring along another fan favorite, Michael Hale, to play a rousing game of trivia with them. The results are predictable in their unpredictability, and it's a blast. We've got a ton of great bonus episodes in the back catalogue too, and they're all yours with a donation, so let's make it happen and we can all understand irony together.

Episode 54: Olivia Stadler v. Chris D'Elia Dec 02, 2019

Olivia Stadler (comedian) teaches Chris D'Elia (and us) a valuable lesson: just because you're famous doesn't mean you can slide into the DMs clumsily. An attempted meet-up ends with the two never meeting and Chris footing Olivia's hotel bar bill in a wonderful Block Tale. Elsewhere, John gives Stefan and Olivia a diagrammed lesson about the sport of curling (which also leads to talk about his vaguely athletic body), Olivia prods Kendall Jenner to come out, Stefan talks about ball lightning (it's not what you think), and John gets some comments on his Entourage podcast guest appearance that are exactly what you'd expect.

For other things you'd expect (mostly stupid), you can also donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month will get you access to THREE shiny bonus episodes every single month. Our esteemed series where we break down celebrity Cameos (as featured on A.V. Club) returns this week with special guest Ivan Decker, and there's tons of great content from John's first time smoking weed and our first tour of live shows from last month ready to go right now! There's literally nothing that could be better. It's a great Christmas present! So do it today!

Episode 53: Jesse Farrar v. Jessica Morales Rocketto Nov 25, 2019

Jesse Farrar (Your Kickstarter Sucks, Go Off Kings) returns to the show, and whips up a frenzy to try and get blocked for the occasion. After firing barbs at the likes of Mark Cuban and Jonathan Chait, Jesse finally catches a block from "JMR" after her very misguided tweet about socialism and her vote. It's our longest episode ever, and quite frankly, it's deserving of the chaos, as Jesse gets Stefan a special gift to celebrate his Song of the Day, John unearths a social media update he's been waiting 3 months to reveal, and Jesse and Stefan have a Social Media Update surprise for John. In addition to all that, the Blocked Boys go in on the worst team at their first trivia night, the worst game show we've ever heard of (Geeks Who Drink), and chicken wings.

If this insane episode inspires you as much as it does us, you may want even more of the insanity at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE wonderful bonus episodes every month. This month, we celebrated our 1-Year Anniversary with a ton of content, including live audio from our first-ever live show, and the video/audio episodes where John, a 34 year-old man, smokes weed for the first time. Chris James and Joshua Custodio join us, and it's a heck of a time. We have a ton of great stuff planned for December as well, so make it a holiday occasion and hop on the BP train. And remember: once you donate $50 to the show lifetime, you get a free shirt. It never stops being this good.

Episode 52: Chris Locke v. Gary Gulman Nov 18, 2019

Chris Locke (comedian) becomes our first guest to return for a second regular episode, and folks, it's a doozy. If last episode with Becca Lewis proved we were a smart podcast, we go all the way dumb on this one as Chris gets blocked by famed comedian Gary Gulman after an innocuous comment on one of his #GulManTips. Elsewhere, it's a 5-alarm blaze as the Blocked Boys go absolutely wild on getting cut open by a whaler's rusty fish hook, Bill Gates and The Poop Guy, mood ring toilet seats, instruments of torture, and we learn the story of how Chris got banned from Twitter.

If you want to finally catch the great white whale, you can do so at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month will get you more bonus content than you can handle. This week, we are celebrating the 1-Year Anniversary of the show with new content releasing every day, from audio from our first ever BP live show to the content you've been waiting months for: John smoking weed for the first time. It really happened, and we filmed it, then we recorded an episode, and it's all going to be coming out this week. It's a big one, folks. If you ever thought you were gonna donate to the show, now's the time.

Episode 51: Becca Lewis v. Internet Trolls Nov 11, 2019

Becca Lewis (PhD candidate in Internet Politics, Stanford) makes us all smarter by telling us what life is like as a PhD student who exclusively studies internet culture. It's mostly good but also sometimes very bad, when that culture you research almost exclusively consists of internet nutjobs. After spending a large amount of time learning stuff, the Blocked Boys then drag Becca down into their weird corner of the internet, as the BBs go in on YouTube makeup tutorials, inspiring Kleenex, the Vancouver otter that's terrorizing botanical gardens, and Stefan decides it might finally be time to get a bidet.

If you want to feel as clean as you've ever felt, you can donate $5/month to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where your donation will make you feel great because you're getting THREE bonus episodes every damn month. This is the month where John smokes weed for the first time with some very special guests, and you won't wanna miss it. You can also donate just $4 to get access to Stefan and John's weekly newsletter, or $8 will get you both the episodes and the newsletter, if you're the content monster we know you are.

Episode 50: Nick Nemeroff v. Comedy Central Commenters Nov 04, 2019

Nick Nemeroff (comedian) gets very excited for his first TV appearance on Comedy Central, without considering that they have 3M Facebook followers, and they might have some opinions on his comedy that are very bad. However, Nick deals with it in the best way possible and talks about what is one of the funniest internet bits ever. Aside from that, this episode is essentially just John’s Worst Nightmare, as the rest of the episode is mainly designed to punish him. Stefan makes John watch the episode of Peep This Out! where he walks on a bridge he believes is haunted, John talks about Becca absolutely owning him with a birthday card, and Nick…well Nick doesn’t really punish him, but he’s also not Chrissy Teigen (we tried). Just a bad time for John all around, and we also learn about the guy who orgasms 100 times a day, which doesn’t make it any better.

If you’d like to feel better, you can donate to the BP Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single damn month. We’re crazy. October was a hot month as we had guests from Street Fight Radio, Truthpoint, and Welcome to Sullyville on the show, talking Cameos, The Fanatic, and answering your questions. This month, we are going to be doing some live stuff AND JOHN SMOKES WEED FOR THE FIRST TIME. It’s happening, and he’s doing it with a couple of guests who were described as “the worst possible people you could smoke weed with if it was your first time.” You won’t wanna miss it. And hey, if you hate bonus audio and don’t have the time, we also have a BP newsletter you can access for $4/month. It’s all good stuff and it’s all for you.

Episode 49: Chris Griffin v. A Girl He Met After a Show Oct 28, 2019

Chris Griffin (comedian) joins us on the show to tell a cautionary tale: no matter how well you do at a show, and no matter how interested a woman seems, there's always the potential for things to go sideways. And go sideways they do, as the woman pitches Chris on a weird date idea and then blocks him a day later. The Blocked Boys help Chris understand exactly what happened as they also tell tales of gender reveal disasters, the worst types of sports fans, Halloween costumes, and trips to small towns across Canada. Very specifically, Powell River, British Columbia. This episode was NOT brought to you by the Powell River Board of Tourism.

What we can bring you, however, is a fine helping of bonus content over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month now gets you THREE beautiful bonus episodes every single month. We've had a big month too, as we were joined by Bryan and Brett from Street Fight Radio, Derek and dril from Truthpoint, and this week, Dan O'Sullivan returns to the show to play FMK with the Blocked Boys and John reveals a massive secret. It's only $5 and you get lots of great bonus goodies, our undying love, and a T-Shirt once you donate $50. It's good and you should do it.

Episode 48: K.C. Novak v. A Booty Call Oct 21, 2019

K.C. Novak (comedian) asks the question, "can you do sex tonight?" and folks, the answer isn't a positive one. We learn all about her ex-boyfriend and occasional lover blocking her while also leaning on K.C. for emotional support but also being mad at her for not being spiritual enough? It's a wild series of DMs that makes for one of the best Blocked Tales ever. Elsewhere, The Blocked Boys get yet another care package from Australia and try very hard to figure out what "Chicken Crimpy" is, K.C. tries to educate us on the finer points of social media follows in the beginning of a new relationship, and Stefan and John get incredibly heated about time zones.

If you want to bring some real heat, you can do so right now by donating $5/month to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty where that $5 will get you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. This month, we've got two doozies already as we had the Street Fight Radio boys join us to watch the absurd Fred Durst movie "The Fanatic", and the boys behind Adult Swim's "Truthpoint", Derek and dril, joined us for our monthly Cameo episode, where we take a look at awful celebrity Cameos. We've got a mailbag coming up next week with another very special guest, and this content train just keeps rolling. So come aboard. It's nice here. We also have a top-secret Discord and your donation gets you the entire back catalogue of bonuses too.

Episode 47: Sam Seder v. Dave Rubin Oct 14, 2019

Sam Seder (Majority Report) is definitely not encouraging you or discouraging you from asking Dave Rubin to debate him, as he fills us in on the months-long saga that progressed from an offer for a debate to a Twitter muting to finally a blocking. It's one of our most detailed Blocked Tales ever, and one of the best. That doesn't stop the Blocked Boys from having lots of time for other stuff too, as they delve into video games, summer camp, hot dogs, Steven Crowder, one of the largest Twitter ratios of all-time, and Stefan getting a Trump guy to quit Twitter.

One way to ensure you don't get ratio'ed is to donate to everyone's favourite Patreon at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every damn month. That's right, before we were doing two, now it's THREE! We're dumb and you love content, it's a match made in heaven. This month we've already watched the insane/horrible Fred Durst/John Travolta movie "The Fanatic", and this upcoming week will feature our monthly Cameo episode, where this month we're joined by "Truthpoint" stars dril and Derek to review the worst in celebrity shout-outs from Cameo.com. There's never been a better time to be a part of this mess.

Episode 46: Paul Bae v. A Twitter Troll Oct 07, 2019

Paul Bae (The Black Tapes, Marvels, The Big Loop) joins us for a block as old as time: a Twitter egg replies to you, you dunk on him for a few minutes, and then you get blocked. As far as old tales go, the Blocked Boys also waste no time getting to talking about their favourite topics, as John gives an update on his waxing and Stefan reveals that he cursed himself on the last episode in a totally unsurprising way. The three men don't just stop there, as we delve into Saturday Night Live, The Joker, local politician Rocky Dong, and John and Paul--a former teacher--swap stories about the funniest pranks they've pulled on students.

If you want more funny pranks, you can donate $5/month to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 now gets you THREE bonus episodes per month, as we reached the $5000 goal! That's right, baby: John is gonna smoke weed, and you get more of our very stupid content. Last month we were joined by the YKS boys for a Cameo episode and later this month, we're going to have another two VERY special guests join us for a Cameo episode you won't wanna miss. But first! This week, Bryan and Brett from Street Fight join us to break down the Fred Durst/John Travolta vehicle "The Fanatic". It's all happening! Our Patreon is the place to be.

Episode 45: Cait Raft v. Her Middle School Crush Sep 30, 2019

Cait Raft (JackAM, This Podcast is Self Care) created 30+ AIM accounts to profess her love for her middle school crush, ranging from posing as his best friend to blatantly creating accounts just for him, and he blocked 'em all! It's one of our wildest Block Tales yet and it makes sense as this episode goes absolutely and completely off the rails. The Blocked Boys get into all sorts of mess in this one, from Joey's World Tour farting on camera to the Bristol Stool Chart to the top 3 things that come out of our bodies. Not enough? We also go in on bad toilet auras, ass waxing, and Ed the Sock makes a triumphant return. The only wholesome thing in this entire episode is when John pays a Top Chef Masters champion, Chris Cosentino, to weigh in on Stefan's insane pizza take. So enjoy that. Who knows about the rest.

Speaking of wholesome content, you can find so much of it over at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where every month we are producing TWO bonus episodes and some newsletters too! This month's bonus episodes were SPECIAL, as we were joined by Will Weldon for a Hell Block and just last week we released an all-Cameo bonus with Michael Hale and Jesse Farrar from Your Kickstarter Sucks. So many bad Cameos, so little time, and Joey from Joey's World Tour provides what Jon Hendren called, "the funniest 5 minutes of a podcast I've ever heard". If that's not an endorsement, nothing is.

Episode 44: Graham Wright v. Gary Janetti Sep 23, 2019

Graham Wright (Tokyo Police Club, Girlfriend Material, our theme song writer) joins us for a lot of firsts: the first time our theme song has ever been played live, the first cold open in the show's history, and the first time a Block Tale has been done IN REAL TIME, as Graham searches for someone to block and we find a very boring and mediocre Instagram personality as the target. Elsewhere, The BBs discover that John only really goes off the rails while recording in the morning, as we talk smashing windows, Badlands Chugs, the Santa Cruz Joker, McDonald's breakfast, and the anatomy of John's...well, anatomy.

If you wanna go off the rails at any time of day, you can do so by donating $5/month to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where you'll get TWO bonus episodes every month. This month, we have already had Will Weldon on to discuss Stefan's Bill Simmons block, and THIS WEEK we'll have another treat featuring your two favourite boys, Jesse Farrar and Michael Hale from Your Kickstarter Sucks, on to do an all-Cameo bonus episode with us, featuring the stupidest Cameo we've ever purchased. And if you know our Cameo episodes, that's an extremely high (low?) bar. It's gonna be good.

Episode 43: Josiah Hughes v. Mike Bullard Sep 16, 2019

Josiah Hughes (writer, blink-155 podcast) dips deep into the well of CanCon to discuss being blocked by a legendary Canadian talk show host about a matter of "chivalry". The Blocked Boys also look at the famous episode of Open Mike where Tom Green brings a dead raccoon on air, and mix in more Canadian references than you can shake a maple leaf at. Elsewhere, the BBs get into their various experiences with liquor store bootlegging, and talk Tom DeLonge impersonators, Gronk curing his own CTE, and MuchMusic legend Ed the Sock.

If you want to help us create even more Canadian content, you can do so at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you full access to TWO bonus episodes every single month. This month, we welcome another Canadian on the show, Will Weldon, to talk about the time Stefan got blocked by Bill Simmons, and we have another Cameo bonus episode coming soon with two VERY special guests. AND if that isn't enough, we also write a weekly-ish newsletter for those who don't need any more of our Canadian accents. It's $4 a month for those, or $8 if you want the newsies and the bonus episodes. Great deals, great times.

Episode 42: Andrea Jin v. Contest Voters Sep 09, 2019

Andrea Jin (comedian) tells us that she'll do just about anything for votes in a stand-up comedy contest, whether that means showing her body, face, or stringing along a guy from Miami. Also on the show, The Blocked Boys finally put a pin in the Jeremy Renner saga as Stefan (Mr. Heck, according to the New York Times) delivers the final update and John finds out what happens when you tell the Stop M app that you've just relapsed. Andrea fills the boys in on what the hell TikTok is, and Stefan goes truly wild with his stupidest opinion yet, the opinion that makes the "morning is not part of the day" controversy seem like a widely accepted opinion that everyone holds.

Want to do something uncontroversial? You could go ahead and donate to the show at https://patreon.com/blockedparty. For $5 a month, you'll get two bonus episodes, including the one we just recorded with Will Weldon due out this week, and one coming at the end of this month where we are joined by two VERY special guests for a Cameo episode you won't wanna miss. The BBs are also writing newsletters, and for $4/month, you can access those. You know, if you hate listening. $8/month em both! Avoid the hate and donate today!

Episode 41: Guy Branum v. Antoni Porowski Sep 02, 2019

One of the most requested guests in Blocked Party history, Guy Branum (comedian, author “My Life as a Goddess”) joins the show to help us learn why a man with a 6-pack should never be trusted to be a food critic. Speaking of food, John continues on his roll of terrible food critique, except this time he has to experience it live and in-person as he overhears one of the worst dinner conversations of all-time. Elsewhere, Stefan details his destruction of the Jeremy Renner app and Guy weighs in on Canadian politics, Stefan’s mustache and reveals why he had to delete Twitter this week. #boursin

If you have deleted Twitter, you may not know about our wonderful Patreon. You can find it at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to TWO brand-new bonus episodes every month. This past month, we did a mailbag and a special BOYS CHAT where Stefan and John sat down, sans guest, and rocked an episode. In September, we’ll be doing another very special Cameo episode with two VERY special guests you won’t wanna miss. So get into it! And if you hate hearing stuff, we have a weekly (ish) newsletter for $4/month with some great writing from Stefan and John. Plenty of reasons to let your favourite Blocked Boys know you love them.

Episode 40: Sophia Johnson v. Her Classmate Aug 26, 2019

Sophia Johnson (actor, comedian) is probably the first woman in history to get blocked for playing Magic: The Gathering with a guy her classmate had a crush on. He played an all-blue deck, so he was probably too controlling anyway. This episode sees the Blocked Boys get the lowdown on New Zealand's favourite soap opera (which Sophia acted on) and Stefan & John pitch their own ideas for a soap opera involving them. We also look at the fake Sophia who studied hieroglyphics, we check in on past guest Bryan Quinby from Street Fight Radio, and Stefan causes John an intense amount of emotional distress as John watches one of the worst videos in internet history. And finally, we announce our plans to land a big guest for Episode 50.

If you want to ward off emotional distress, a great way to do that is by donating to the show at http://patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5 a month gets you access to TWO bonus episodes. This month, we have a mailbag feature episode with Kyle Bottom, and we're going to be debuting a NEW bonus episode format THIS WEEK! Exciting. Stefan and John are also hard at work writing newsletters, which you can access by upping your $5 donation to $8, or by skipping the audio content altogether and donating $4. SO MANY THINGS! Donate today!

Episode 39: Kevin Banner v. Gene Simmons Aug 19, 2019

Kevin Banner (comedian) returns, this time on a regular episode, to tell us about the time he pissed off the lead singer of KISS and the Prime Minister of Canada in one fell swoop. Kevin and John get an up-close look at Stefan’s new weed pen as they discuss how close John is getting to that $5k Patreon goal of smoking weed for the first time and the Blocked Boys get all the details about Kevin’s divorce announcement. Elsewhere, we discuss jacking off at work, Gene Simmons’ sex tape, and this week it’s John’s turn to play an absolutely cringeworthy video.

You want something you won’t cringe about? Donate $5/month to Blocked Party at https://patreon.com/blockedparty, and you’ll get TWO bonus episodes a month, which this month includes our second mailbag installment with Kyle Bottom, and a future Hell Block coming up next week.

Episode 38: Bobby Big Wheel v. Benny Johnson Aug 12, 2019

Bobby Big Wheel (internet funnyman) gets Stefan extremely excited for his Block Tale by getting blocked by Stefan's most hated man on the internet, Benny Johnson. This block also leads to an extremely fun revelation during the listener block segment, and we partake in one of the worst Ted Talks of all-time. The Blocked Boys also dive deep on getting hacked by ISIS, feral hogs, the fish tube, rewriting Christmas carols, and Tommy Lee borrows from Reddit in one of the most bizarre tweets of all-time.

Episode 37: Rachel Schaefer v. Her “Roommate” Aug 05, 2019

Rachel Schaefer (comedian) joins us to tell a story of how a close friend became an unwitting roommate after she asked to couch surf and then never left. Needless to say, the story doesn’t end well. The Blocked Boys don’t waste any time and give a crucial update on John’s elevator situation with some new information that might blow the case wide open. John also finally reveals the company he did a commercial for and Rachel gets into her own commercial history, while Stefan keeps us updated on children getting attacked by animals and John reads the worst wedding invitation of all-time.

Episode 36: Jake Flores v. Jen Kirkman Jul 29, 2019

Jake Flores (comedian, Pod Damn America) spins the wheel of comedy blocks he has and lands on Jen Kirkman, who we find out even blocked one of our listeners for just tweeting “Russia” at her. The Blocked Boys then get riled up talking about dog poop in John’s elevator, fast food breakfast, Dina Hashem’s joke (we love it), Belle Delphine’s Pornhub grift, and Stefan gives us an update on John Delaney. Plus! The BBs talk at length about recording Cooked Party and Stefan eating the tuna and peas pizza.

Episode 35: Dave Shumka v. The Captain's Boil Jul 22, 2019

Dave Shumka (Stop Podcasting Yourself, This Sounds Serious) shows some dedication to the show, reviving his SPY Twitter exchange with crappy restaurant The Captain's Boil in an effort to be blocked for the show. That doesn't work, but a surprise post-show leads Dave to commit his first-ever block. The Blocked Boys also get into John's sober history, French Immersion, FaceApp, Deion Sanders Jr.'s intimate tweet to his father, and Stefan shares a bonus Block Tale that leads to a shocking admission from John.

Karen Geier (writer, On Belief podcast) proves to be a dream guest as she's blocked by a long-time nemesis of the podcast, Ed Krassenstein, who follows up blocking her with a weird series of emails that do nothing to dispel the Krassenbrothers' creepy vibe. The Blocked Boys also get their shots in on Candy Crush: The Game Show, Chuck Wendig's horrible tweet, video game documentaries, the U.S. Women's Soccer team, and we end the show with the most Canadian Top 3 yet.

Episode 33: Dave Harris v. An Ex-Girlfriend Jul 08, 2019

Dave Harris (comedian, Beer Me) uses the threat of a block to win back an ex-girlfriend (and it works! Sort of). Elsewhere, the Blocked Boys continue on their crusade to be the first show ever with multiple hosts that refuse to use the term co-host with middling results, and they reminisce on childhood skin mags. The three men also go in on Baby Shark, the Honor and Respect shoes, the family game where a dog pisses in your kid's face, and Stefan becomes an olive guy.

If you want some extra olives, you can donate $5 a month to http://patreon.com/blockedparty, where that donation gets you access to TWO sweet bonus episodes a month. We wrapped up June with two great bonuses with Jack Allison and Chris James, and July promises to be a doozy, with another Cameo episode coming out this Wednesday with a VERY special guest and our first-ever video bonus comes later this month as Stefan tries a tuna-and-peas pizza.

Stacey McLachlan (comedian, Nasty Women Comedy, AfterChef Junior) shows us that you can never be too sure who listens to your podcast after she gets blocked by the parent of a MasterChef Junior contestant. It's also a huge episode as the Blocked Boys reveal their grand plans to host the first-ever live podcast inside an 18,000-seat arena with an idea that's too big to fail! PLUS: smart light bulbs go way too far, Scott Stapp sings the national anthem, and we learn that Stacey knows far too much about McGruff the Crime Dog's anti-drug album, which is somehow a real thing.

Episode 31: Jon Hendren v. Lin-Manuel Miranda Jun 24, 2019

Jon Hendren (@fart, internet funnyman) hates that we introduce him as "internet funnyman", but we do it anyway. We also hate Lin-Manuel Miranda's daily affirmations, and Jon tells the story of how he found out that LMM hates when people criticize Hamilton on Twitter. The Blocked Boys also get serious about cooking techniques, old man fights, and vehicles in movies, while John learns about the world of Amo Amo and OJ Simpson gets Twitter.

Episode 30: Hunter Collins v. "Felix" Jun 17, 2019

Hunter Collins (comedian) brings a hidden identity with him to the podcast, as the threat of actual legal action makes this Block Tale so juicy we can't reveal exactly who he was blocked by. But it's a wild story and easily our best Blocked Tale yet. Around that, the Blocked Boys get into John's numerous spoken mishaps on the pod, some more controversial food takes, and the BBs finally weigh in on the Doctor Disrespect incident.

Tom Hill (comedian, Hip.Bang!) is the first person to come on the show with a PHYSICAL block, as he gets owned in a game of basketball and his dead tooth from the incident haunts his acting career from then on. After the Blocked Boys once again dive into their small-handedness, Tom gets into a heated argument with Stefan about piano-playing that spans far too long--like a canal(John makes a lot of canal puns in lieu of choosing sides). And amidst all that, the social media updates get wild as Stefan digs into the Scripps National Spelling Bee, John reads one of the most insane r/relationships posts of all-time, and Tom encourages the BBs into their most sincere Top 3 yet.

We dig around to try and find the truth about why Alex was blocked by Captain Kirk. The BBs also explore the great history of “Twitter Wives”, from Elf Wife and Curvy Wife to the newest sensation, Cliff Wife.
