Blocked Party v. Itself w/ Jesse Farrar
We officially close the show's loop by inviting our first-ever guest, Jesse Farrar (Your Kickstarter Sucks), back on the show to put the final nail in the main feed's coffin.Of course, the show is going to continue to exist on Patreon for the next little while as Stefan and John figure out their next moves. 3 BRAND NEW bonus episodes every single month, plus access to the entire back catalogue of bonus episodes (over 150!), for the low price of $5/month. One tier, all the bonus episodes, that's it. You'll also get access to our...

Bryan Quinby v. His Brother-in-Law
We are LIVE from the Biltmore Cabaret with the FINAL main episode of Blocked Party EVER, and Bryan is here to tell us all about how he had to block his brother-in-law for being a flat-earther. And that's not the only strange Bryan story we get on the episode (obviously), as he fills us in on his overall disdain for nature because mountains don't sing or play music and his penchant for pissing in the drain in the laundry room in his basement. And of course, because it is the last main episode of the show, Stefan graces us...

Will Weldon v. Jeff Ross
Will Weldon (comedian) returns to the show to tell us about the time Jeff Ross blocked him after he clearly name-searched his own name and didn't like what he found. You probably remember why that might be. We remember lots of stuff on this show, including the Oilers and Hawk Tuah girls having their moments, the UK holding their elections, Vancouver's bad mayor, and Stefan and John prepare for their annual hockey pool trip, and Will really hates Bill Maher. Plus, Will gets suspended on Twitter, John is checking in on Book Twitter, and Mikey Miles has a truly...

Alex Berr v. Instagram
Alex Berr (comedian) is probably the smartest guest in the show's history, as she has a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering but also has muted just about every person's stories and posts on Instagram that she follows so it restricts her app use. She has "blocked" Instagram. It's impressive, and so is this episode, as John screws a bunch of stuff up, Alex joins a secret society, and Stefan talks about Cuckold Night on Go Off Kings, which leads us to go way deep on gimp masks and weird pet items. Plus, we discuss the carnivore diet, Stefan gives...

And so is the episode, as we discuss our word games habit, John doing the new lamest thing he's ever done, our teenage party experiences, cartoons, and Erin takes umbrage with something Stefan and John enjoy. Plus, Erin deleted all her social media, Stefan shows us some rejected vanity license plates, and John introduces Stefan and Erin to scenic pisses....

Yes, that John McAfee. Donovan Eyre (Radio-Free Tote Bag) joins the show to tell us about weirdly getting the late John McAfee on their podcast (before he died, obv), getting the follow, and then getting unfollowed after his passing. It's a strange sequence of events, and we break it all down here. We also break down CBD seltzers, the A&W Burger Family, Hawkins Cheezies, and Stefan and John make a horrible pitch: Canada Juice II. Plus, Dono's algorithm is full of dead fish, the Cybertruck gets compared to a prom dress (?) in a very strange tweet, and we...

Gavin Matts v. O.J. Simpson
Gavin Matts (comedian) returns to the show and catches a block that realistically we should all aspire to catch: he gets blocked by O.J. Simpson. You remember, the football player who also did some other stuff. It was a COVID-era block but Gavin doesn't catch it for a reason you'd think, but rather for a well-timed joke. And there are lots of well-timed jokes on this episode as discussion of bodegas leads us down a strange rabbit hole into the world of pitbull breeding and the very strange posters that accompany said breeding. We also chat about the...

Connor Ratliff (Dead Eyes) joins the show and it's a classic, as Connor runs us through a multi-year bit that culminated in a satire Twitter account he ran getting blocked by the well-known author of "Game Change", John Heilemann. We try to get to the bottom of that as we discuss what got people upset about Dead Eyes, weird new candies, and talk of the George Lucas Talk Show takes us down a deep Star Wars rabbit hole as John reveals that Limp Bizkit got to see the premiere of Phantom Menace at Skywalker Ranch and somehow this also...

We also went off on this episode, as we discuss sending poop pics, how to behave at parent-teacher meetings, AI pictures of Yoda and Elon Musk, voice mods, and Stefan and Ike compare notes on their "guys", and of course, their guys are YouTube fast food reviewers and competitive eaters...

It's a beautiful story that she's so eager to tell, she tells it during the social media update portion of the show. But who cares!

And it gets worse after, as they return to the texting service with some not great comments for Gianmarco.

It's a new level of odd! And this episode is our usual bit of oddness as we recorded it before the official status of the Oceangate sub was in, but we felt pretty confident discussing the eventual aftermath. Then, we...

How weird? You'll have to listen as we discuss that and burping, BlueSky, the Gollum game and their German-ass developers, The Idol, we ponder going to Hedonism II as a joke, and we celebrate Dan's birthday with a McCain Deep 'n' Delicious cake.

Dave Harris (comedian) returns to the show and yes, we do have a mobile delivery app in Canada called SkipTheDishes. It's based in Winnipeg, because...of course it is. It's a rare Block Tale where the blockee admits they're at fault, as Dave takes one on the chin here after getting upset with Skip for not delivering his six-pack of beer on time. Dave is at fault for a few other things too, as he tells us about changing the backgrounds on his colleague's computers to illicit images and we learn an awful lot about a website we probably...

Randee has a very strange interaction on Facebook Marketplace where she gets blocked by a potential customer, so she does what anyone else would do in this situation: she takes it to Instagram. It's a great Block Tale buoyed by a great episode as we go ALL the way off the rails discussing flipping TV channels as a kid, potentially entering our Chris Gaines' eras, solving religion, getting standing ovations...

It turns out drinking, drugs, and comedians living together is a bad combination, as Bobby learns the hard way when he gets kicked out of his house after being very stupid one night. The story isn't all bad though, as it is a stepping stone to Bobby's (and Will's) eventual sobriety and they are back to being great friends. And we make great friends with Bobby on this episode as well, as we chat about teacher fashion, the...

Whether Emily was blocked pre-January 6th or not, an inflammatory tweet on the fateful day sealed it, and she lived to tell the Tale. She also lives to tell us a bunch more stuff, as we chat about pull-out couches, doormats, writing jokes in our dreams, and we learn an awful lot about hot peppers.

It's truly one of the more baffling blocks in show history, but makes for a great Tale.

It's a fitting block for a wild episode, as we talk Tim Horton's, insane American "coffees", Trader Joe's, visas, and mean border guards. Plus, Deb tells us about her "Fake Boyfriend Fridays", Stefan gives us an update on the whole Twitter API fiasco, and John receives an unhinged message...

Despite being a First-Timer, Nathan immediately gets into the vibe of the show as we go after zombies as villains, saying no to things, the Rocky movies, and we go very heavy on the video game content, touching on games both old and new.

It's a bad-ass move and Darcy wastes no time getting re-acquainted with Stefan as we discuss Stefan's bidet, Connor Bedard, our hockey pool, the sorry state of the Vancouver Canucks, Darcy tells us about him and Jer touring America last year, and Darcy weighs in on whether or not Stefan is...

So while you don't get the usual Christmas rundown from the fellas, what you DO get is our annual look at who we want to be mortal enemies with for the upcoming year. Before that, we go over our 2022 Enemies List, where Stefan finds out that he didn't really have an effective vendetta against most of his 2022 Enemies but John actually managed to get a business shut down (probably).

Why? Well, our scheduled guest came down with the stomach flu a few hours before recording. Then, John came down with a migraine.

And that's not the only Grindr-type experience we get into, as Brandon updates where Stefan and John stand in the gay classification system now that he's met us in person, and he gives Stefan a compliment that Stefan believes is the highest he has received.

Tony Hawk v. The Olympics
Tony Hawk (legend) joins the show to fulfill John's dream and to talk about the time that the International Olympic Committee booted him off the Park Course and then the time right after that when he got home from Tokyo and got blocked by NBC for doing his own commentary on their content. Before all that, we reminisce about how Tony's appearance on the show came to be, through a Cameo from a listener and we learn the insane number of Cameos Tony has done. Elsewhere, Stefan and John ask Tony for advice on being cool which leads to...

Danika Thibault v. A Man Named Ashley
If you're thinking you can't trust a man named Ashley, our guest this week, Danika Thibault (comedian), is here to prove you right, as she tells a tale about a chance encounter leading to a very weird online interaction and subsequent blocking by...a man named Ashley. Speaking of weird online interactions, Stefan doubles down on his Marge impression from the Go Off Kings this week, and shows at least a little improvement. Plus we get into Canadian chocolate bars, Donald Trump, Stefan's MLB: The Show character, A24 films, Sisqo's beautiful reasoning behind the Thong Song, and Danika gives...

There's a block in here too, as "scene queen" Audrey Kitching blocks Yasi and sends her down a YouTube rabbit hole as she remembers the block. Elsewhere, Yasi and John form a kinship over music podcast reply guys and we get into some Canadian stuff, talking Tim Hortons and "Green Dennis" along with the revelation that Yasi lost her virginity to a Juggalo.

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.

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.

He's such an easy block to catch that we have multiple Listener Blocks this week too! It's a 3-for-1!

It's a saga with many twists and turns and leaves us with a mystery that will need some experts to solve.
