Blocked Party

It's a little Monday surprise to cap off your summer, as we hit you with another FREE BP bonus episode. For those of you who haven't been following along, we've brought back the "BP Classic" format to our Patreon, doing occasional episodes with the BP format you know and love. Social media updates, blocks, a Top 3...it's all here. And we started it off in style back in March as Dan Duvall (comedian) guested on the show with one of the most insane blocks we've ever heard in the entire run of the show. We couldn't NOT share it with you! We also discuss what happens when your joke goes viral on Instagram, reminisce about old Twitter, and Stefan gives us an Elon Musk update that I'm sure was cool to talk about back in March when we initially did this episode. You can join the Patreon now and never miss another new episode of the show! We're doing tons of fun stuff over at patreon.com/blockedparty and it's just $5/month for 3 bonus episodes every single month, including our brand-new series "Stefan Hell" where Stefan takes over the show, booking the guests and deciding the topic. It's....a lot. But it's fun! Join today! And you can watch Dan's special "Cheat Day" on YouTube or by clicking RIGHT HERE. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

You didn't think we would mess with tradition, did you? The main show may be dead, but our hatred never dies. We are back with the 6th annual Enemies List, where we take a look back on our 2024 Enemies and decide if they ate enough crap to have been defeated by us, and we look ahead to 2025 and wish the worst possible years for a select group of people. We also discuss our Christmases and what's been going on with us lately. Enjoy. As you may have heard, we are a Patreon-only show now. You can still get THREE, NEW!! bonus episodes every single month over at patreon.com/blockedparty. We're doing the usual fun stuff over there and having a grand old time. Come join us for the low price of $5/month! You also get access to our entire back catalogue of over 150 bonus episodes, access to our Discord, exclusive merch discounts, and other little fun things from time to time. We also have a FREE 7-day trial if you want to see what you're missing and give it a try before signing up. And as announced on the show, we also have a brand new shirt design to commemorate the end of the show, drawn by our friend Rory Blank. It's awesome and we think you'll like it.

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 with an insane Joey compilation to really bring it on home. Plus, Bryan gets taken to a card show in Vancouver by Stefan where he wins a big prize, Stefan finds a truly unbelievable Rule 34, and someone craps themselves at a Godspeed You! Black Emperor concert. While this is the final main episode of the show (we will also be doing a retrospective episode in the coming weeks but this is the last one in the "BP Format"), the Patreon will continue to live on with all your favorite bonus episode content. We'll continue to do THREE NEW bonus episodes every single month, while the entire back catalogue will also remain available and you get access to all of it the second you sign up. It's well over 150 episodes at this point, and if you want to hear John and Stefan together, our Patreon will be the only place to do it in the coming months before the new show launches sometime in 2025. So head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, donate to the show, and stay with us as we head into this new chapter.

Alex Goldman (podcaster) returns to the show to tell us about a block he picked up from weird conservative guy Eric Conn, host of the "Hard Men" podcast, for uhh...pointing out that's a strange name for a podcast if you're a guy who presents as an alpha. Our podcast is strange too, as we discuss the TwitchCon cheating scandal, podcast conventions, recording while under the weather, and Bryan's list of best bodily functions. Plus, Alex fills us in on Gamergate 2, John enjoys a throwback funny sports tweet, and we get a clip of Elon Musk talking about hosting SNL that Stefan deems "the worst video to ever be played on Blocked Party", which is an extremely high bar. If you want to see some other horrible videos, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month! Some of which we watch horrible videos in! But others, like this week's, are much more fun, as our friend Josh Custodio pitched us on the idea of an interview about the history of Blocked Party as we near the main feed's end. It was a great time! We also have ad-free episodes, an exclusive Discord, and MORE! Also, a reminder that we are going LIVE in a few weeks!

Jamie Loftus (comedian) is BACK and faces a problem that a lot of us do in the podcasting world: having a reply guy that lets you know every week why they're not going to listen to your show anymore, and trying not to let it get to you. Thankfully for Jamie, she catches a block and doesn't have to deal with this particular person anymore. There's a lot of stuff we don't wanna deal with this week as we discuss undecided voters, nepo babies, and we go really deep on Bugaboo Creek, a Canadian-ish themed restaurant with animatronic animals that Jamie loved as a kid. Plus, Jamie hates the new Twitter algorithm, Donald Trump says yet another insane thing, and Elon Musk sets a new precedent with what is probably the worst tweet of all-time. If you want to hear about more of the worst tweets, you can head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where we talk about a bunch of them! For just $5, you'll get THREE new bonus episodes every single month PLUS you'll get access to our entire back catalogue of over 150 episodes. It's the best! Last week, Becca rejoined the show for a mailbag episode and coming up this week, our good friend Luke Taylor joined us to discuss Canadian CGI cartoon ReBoot. You won't wanna miss it!

Amar Singh (comedian) makes his first appearance on the show to tell us about a time when self-help just went way, way too far and he had to do some blocking to take care of it. Amar is a comedian, but perhaps more importantly, he is John's former student. So we talk to Amar about being in John's class and getting John to book him his first stand-up gig, which has now led to a career in comedy, for better or worse. We also discuss Amar struggling to find a job due to AI, which of course leads Stefan to create some AI Yodas and also show us a nasty picture he found of a really big Nintendo fan. Plus, Amar also loves the sad cat videos we discussed with Libby Watson on our most recent bonus episode, and the Oasis reunion has us revisiting some of their funniest moments of the last decade including Liam Gallagher's meeting with Paul McCartney, his interview with a kindergarten class, and making their own tea. If you want to hear some more tea, we're spilling it all over the place over at patreon.com/blockedparty! $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every damn month including the aforementioned Libby Watson episode that just came out last week, where John had to do the blocking due to an insane Jeopardy! fan. We also do ad-free episodes, have an exclusive Discord, and MORE! And a reminder of BP Live! It's Top Three Weekend II with our friends at Not Even a Show and Guys, Bryan Quinby and Chris James!

Holy hell! Kick us into a pit, we've reached Episode 300! Nick Wiger (Doughboys) joins us to celebrate almost six years of this show by getting blocked by a right-wing-leaning account for telling them straight up that their hero died jacking off. Thankfully we don't die on this episode as we debut our brand-new theme song (thanks to the wonderful Howell Dawdy) and get into the Despicable Me/Minions franchise, which of course, leads to a wide-ranging Rule 34 discussion. It wouldn't be Episode 300 without it. Plus, Wiger details how a book has helped him mostly quit social media, JD Vance brags that he's starting the new Entourage, and our friend Josiah has some fun with the entire country of Australia thanks to a Bluey tattoo tweet. If you wanted to get a tattoo of our show...please don't. But! That probably means you are a big fan, and you should maybe think about donating to us over at patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month!

Sam Burns (comedian) joins the show for the first time to tell us about a hot tip that he received that the Facebook group for the small town of Woodstock, Ontario, was a happening time...and about how he got blocked from that Facebook group. It's a real "remember some times" episode as we discuss X-rated video games, games that are banned from Twitch, Outlaw Golf, Grand Theft Auto, smoking weed in college, and Sam tells us how he randomly ended up seeing the Michael Jackson concert documentary film "This Is It". Plus, Sam gives us an update on his Facebook feed, Republicans are being weird about being called weird, and John relives an old, funny viral tweet. If you want to relive a bunch of old tweets (and moments) with us, then head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty and support the show!

Howell Dawdy (musician) returns to the show with a familiar tale of getting banned from Twitter for too many DMCA strikes, but what isn't familiar is that many of those strikes came from one source: the rapper Eminem. Howell takes us down a road of terrible mashups and horrible parody songs as we discuss our new theme song, plastic straws, our favorite pies, and we learn about the guy who is in love with his car. Like, sexually. Plus, Howell introduces us to the social director of a Florida golf course, Sammy Hagar loves tornadoes, and a tattoo artist has a bizarre interaction with a potential customer. If you want to hear more of our bizarre (but great!) interactions, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty and donate to the damn show! Just $5/month gets you THREE bonus episodes every month, including this week, as Racquel Belmonte makes her triumphant return to the show to celebrate our 50th mailbag with a full clean-out of our old, unanswered mailbag questions. There were so many that this is just Part 1! Speaking of old episodes, your donation immediately gets you our entire back catalogue of 150+ episodes, ad-free episodes, and more! So check it out! Howell Dawdy is a musician and comedian whose latest album, "I Need Some Help" is available now wherever you get your music. "Mexican Coke" is the song of the summer.

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 us a Joey update where he has an actually funny tweet, and speaking of tweets, John goes viral for an observation he makes in London and gets Dutchposted. If you want to learn about Dutchposting and many other brilliant concepts, you can head on over to our Patreon and donate to the show. Help the Blocked Boys, do some learning, it's a beautiful thing. For your $5 donation, you'll get THREE bonus episodes every single month. This week, fan fave Christine Bortolin is back on the show discussing the time Stefan got blocked by the guy pretending to be Will McAvoy from The Newsroom on Twitter. We also have ad-free episodes and much more, so check it out! Alex Berr is a comedian who has a brand new comedy podcast about the cool lives of scientists called Uncontrolled Variables, the first episode of which is out now.

Clare Belford (comedian) returns to the show on the last of our pre-tapes before Dan gets back from Japan, and it's a fun one, as Clare blocks any "sexy chat" spam DM she gets invited into but notices one commonality...a fellow comedian showing up in these chats, and subsequently following some of these women. We don't reveal who it is, but you can maybe guess! No guessing about this episode being fun though, as Clare tells us about her new dog (who snores adorably throughout), and we discuss The Leftovers, Clare's dad's dog obedience tips, falling asleep at comedy shows, and our friend DBJ trapped themself in a box. Plus, Clare gets a confusing tax slip, a man gets caught in a court proceeding, and Twiggy owns an interviewer. If you want something to do that's a lot less confusing than your taxes, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where a simple $5 donation gets you access to our entire back catalogue and THREE brand-new bonus episodes a month. Last week, Sequoia Holmes returned to the show for a Canadian Education episode, as we watched the MuchMusic staple "intimate & interactive" with Canadian legends Our Lady Peace. We also have ad-free episodes, an exclusive Discord, and more, so check it out! Clare Belford is a comedian who will be at Edmonton's Grindstone Comedy Festival in a couple of weeks from July 3-7.

Dave Merheje (comedian) joins the show in-person for the first time to tell us about different blocking patterns with two exes, one of which leads to a very interesting reveal. Dave immediately connects with Dan on the episode as we discuss Dan's can situation, the few times Dave stayed with John over the years, people taking selfies with celebs, meeting fans, expensive train rides, and the Disney Star Wars hotel. Plus, British kids complain about ice cream, Elon Musk wants your family pics on X, Shaq talks that talk to Draymond Green and Jeff Teague explains that the Bucks' victory party wasn't that good. If you want to attend a much better party, head on over to the one we're having on our Patreon, which is at patreon.com/blockedparty. $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month, including this week, as Danika Thibault rejoins the show to review some terrible Cameos with us in our Word Up! series. We also have ad-free episodes, video bonuses, an exclusive Discord, and more. Plus! Details on how you can save on a ticket to our upcoming Top Three Weekend II with Guys in Vancouver!
