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 John committing how to learn to hardflip. Plus, we chat curling, burgers, karaoke, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, exit surveys, and Tony tells us about retiring tricks and making skate decks with his blood.

 

If you want to commit a sort of online blood oath with us, you can donate to the show at patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month. This week, we've got Kofie Yeboah returning to the show as we teach him (and ourselves, really) about the Canadian Football League and it's a good one. Plus we have our Paranoia series ongoing and if you hate the ads, we have some new ad-free tiers for you check out. And! Zoom shows return in November. So give it a peek!
