Jacob Samuel (comedian) tells us about the time that he was preparing for an album taping for Just for Laughs and got into it with a local showrunner who didn't want to give Jacob stage time for some reason and caught the block. Luckily, there are lots of great reasons to give Jacob mic time on our show, as something pretty big happened since last time Jacob was here: he won a damn Juno! We discuss what it means to win a "Canadian Grammy" in Covid times and we go deep on rec league sports: coming back after a long layoff, getting injured, bad players, picking the right division, and the craziness that is rec league ball hockey. We also find time for Stalin and data collection too. Plus! Jacob tells us about RV Instagram, Stefan finds out that Tony Posnanski referenced us in a blog post, and John gets a nice greeting from the people who repaired his blender.

If you want to feel like you've repaired your life (and ours), you can help support the show by heading over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every dang month. Last month, Stefan finally got behind the wheel for the first time in over a decade and we filmed the whole thing! Episode 2 of "Stefan Takes An L" is now live and this week, another mailbag episode is on the way! Plus you get merch discounts, access to our Discord, and our entire back catalogue of bonus episodes! So head on over and help us out!
