Blocked Party ·

2023/09/25

Juniper (Western Kabuki) joins the show for the first time to regale us of the time she was blocked by someone who is definitely not appearing on the show for the first time, it's Scott Adams! The creator of Dilbert gets ratio'ed to hell thanks to Juniper's reply to his tweet, and we love to see another soldier fighting the good fight against that weird freak. Remembrances of our appearance on Western Kabuki leads us into a discussion about just how many "main characters" there are on Twitter now,

Episode 252: Django Gold v. God

2023/09/18

Django Gold (comedian, writer) joins the show to discuss a block from on high, from the Almighty Wonder himself, from the very person who created the entire planet we call "home"...that's right, Django got blocked by God. Fortunately, God could not block us from doing this episode, as an early "New York Story" from Django turns into a very long discussion about getting pooped on by birds, and we also have just enough time left in the opening of the show to introduce Django to the Venus for Men.

2023/09/11

Ike Barinholtz (actor) returns to the show and not a moment too soon, as he arrives without a Block Tale and leaves with about 50, as he insults Producer Dan and also remembers when he went off on a bunch of Trump people in his Instagram replies on Election Night. 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

Episode 250: Jamie Loftus v. Joey Chestnut

Blocked Party ·

2023/09/04

Jamie Loftus (comedian, writer) returns to the show for a monumental 250th trip around the BP solar system, and perhaps unsurprisingly, we delve into her recent past in the world of hot dogs, as she gets extremely worried she's going to get blocked by hot dog eating legend Joey Chestnut after writing about him in her great book, "Raw Dog". 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! It's a great episode that John

Episode 249: Erica Sigurdson v. A Facebook Friend

Blocked Party ·

2023/08/28

Erica Sigurdson (comedian) joins the show for the first time to tell us about something a lot of us went through during COVID: the former co-worker who re-appeared on the TL to get mad at you for something positive you said about the difficult time we are all going through. Luckily this episode was not a difficult time at all, as we get into Vancouver real estate, building "amenities", grocery delivery, the Australian horse movie Phar Lap, and Stefan and Erica try to convince John to smoke. Plus,

2023/08/21

Niki Mohrdar (comedian) joins the show for the first time to discuss a block that truly no person wants to ever pick up: one from a local pizza company. After a delivery gone wrong, Niki complains and when they refuse to follow through on a gift card, things get heated. And that's not the only fast food we discuss, as we get into the best fast food sides in our Top 3. Niki also lets us in on the weird YouTube commenters that are already pervading her new podcast, Stefan shows her Dewayne, Niki tells

2023/08/14

Gianmarco Soresi (comedian, The Downside) joins the show on a recent visit to Vancouver to tell us about the perils of having a texting service as a comedian, as one person texts him a bunch of times to tell him they'll be at a show and then...well, they ruin the vibe a bit. And it gets worse after, as they return to the texting service with some not great comments for Gianmarco. But we have LOTS of great comments for Gianmarco after this wonderful episode, as we discuss Canada and our silly money,

Episode 246: Tom Walker v. ???

Blocked Party ·

2023/08/07

Tom Walker (comedian, bigsofttitty.png) returns to the show in-studio and for only the second time in show history, we don't reveal the blockee in the show's title, so as to keep the suspense intact. It's a great Block Tale though and involves a recent meeting gone awry. What does not go awry is this episode, as Tom teaches us all about the Gratitude Cafe in Los Angeles and we discuss bad cocktail names, Tom and John performing on a show together, Jar Jar Binks impressions, and we learn about

Episode 245: Kevin Banner's Block Brigade

Blocked Party ·

2023/07/31

Kevin Banner (comedian) returns to the show and he's discovered something about himself in the last year: he loves blocking people. Previously a self-described "mute man", Kevin figures he no longer cares if someone gets mild satisfaction from a block, and he wrote down every single person (or type of person) he's blocked over the last year to tell us all at once. It's a wild list, and one of the most memorable collection of Block Tales in the show's history. The rest of the show is also very

2023/07/24

Mark Chavez (comedian) joins the show to tell us about that one friend that just won't stop taking bad pictures of you or any pictures of your kid and posting them to the internet without permission. Sometimes, we just have to block that friend. Mark is blocking that friend. Thankfully we aren't blocking each other, so we can chat about VIP theatres, multi-part movies, Stefan's Sonic costume, CraveCon, and John correctly susses out that Mark might like to see some Peep This Out! Yes, John suggests

Episode 243: Graham Clark v. Nicole Arbour

2023/07/17

Graham Clark (comedian, Stop Podcasting Yourself) returns to the show for an extra-long, in-person episode and it wouldn't be complete without us watching Nicole Arbour's insane music video and talking about a Block that Graham admits he fully deserves. On this episode we go deep on New York Fries, seltzer, free stuff we get for doing podcasts, ad jingles, and as we get into some B-movies Graham loves, we learn an awful lot about the football and movie career of Brian Bosworth. Plus, we discuss the

Blocked Party ·

2023/07/10

Danika Thibault (comedian) joins the show to tell us about those few times she weirdly went viral for just...existing and being funny. We learn about one Twitter account in particular who compares Danika very unfavorably to one of history's worst humans, and then blocks Danika so she can't even respond. A real brave and powerful move! But it's a very brave and powerful episode as we discuss college dorm room posters, Danika getting to live out her dream of throwing a drink in a guy's face, what

Episode 241: Danielle Florence v. An Ex

Blocked Party ·

2023/07/03

Danielle Florence (comedian) joins the show for a Block Tale that is a first in the show's history. While having an ex be the subject of a block is not new, what IS new is that Danielle got broken up with and then HE requested SHE block him so that he wouldn't be tempted to look at her profile. 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

Episode 240: Becca v. An Ex

2023/06/26

Becca joins the show in-person for possibly the last time before her big move to Calgary, and her Block Tale is a doozy, as we travel all the way back to the MySpace era as Becca notices that she starts to fall down the ranks of her boyfriend's Top 8...and then it gets pretty weird. 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

2023/06/19

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

It's the second episode in a row we have a guest returning after a long layoff, as Randee Neumeyer (comedian) returns to the show and folks...it's an all-timer. 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

Episode 237: Ivan Decker v. Microwave Experts

2023/06/05

Ivan Decker (comedian) returns to the show after a 230-episode absence to help explain one of the dangers of having a joke go viral online: idiots will try to tell you that the very hyperbolic facts you're offering in the joke about microwaves are wrong. It's Dutchposting gone wild in the comments, and Ivan's block finger gets itchy. We start the episode off on the right foot by discussing Ron DeSantis' insane lack of human emotion and feeling before getting into PoliSci guys, Stefan's return to

Christine Bortolin (comedian) joins the esteemed Four-Timers Club as she appears on a main episode of the show for a fourth time to tell us the tale of running a music venue's social media account and how that makes you responsible for destroying the attempts of various, obvious scammers trying to sell "tickets" to sold out shows. If this pod was live, it would definitely be sold out as we have a blast dipping into the Cameo well and visiting our friends the C*ck Destroyers, Christine discusses

Joe Kwaczala (comedian) joins the show to tell us about how creating something as a loving tribute doesn't always have its intended result, as Joe's comedy tribute to video game speedrunning documentarian Summoning Salt leads to a block. However, it seems mostly innocent and Joe has come to plead his case as to why the BP Community should help him get unblocked. Meanwhile, Stefan is back from Taiwan and it's our first main episode recorded in-person in nearly a month and it shows as we get a little

Dakota Ray Hebert (comedian) makes her debut on the show the day after Mother's Day by talking about, well, blocking her mom. Playing "Block Tag" for the last decade, Dakota tells us a great story of seeing her mom after a show, and finds the topic of various social media blocks an awkward topic of conversation among her family. But this episode is anything but awkward! In the last of the episodes we recorded before Stefan went to Taiwan, we discuss the Canadian Screen Awards, Love is Blind, the
