Rachel Brodsky (writer) joins the show and immediately proves herself to be one of our smartest guests ever, as she comes up with the perfect answer to "what is the opposite of corn?", helps us with our lacking musical knowledge, and has the rare Block Tale that actually provides a moral and some genuine prescriptive advice. But as always, don't let all of that fool you, as we still drag Rachel way down into the mud with us as we read a Blocked Party Secret that involves us talking about pissing in a tent, a Facebook friend of John's finds a pet rat, and Dan eats Doritos for dinner. Plus! Stefan gives us an update on Jerry Saltz's coffee situation, Rachel introduces us to the new Nerf mascot, and Tim Allen takes some kids to Disneyland.

 

If you want to go to podcasting Disneyland, you can head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every dang month! Last week, we released a mailbag episode with Producer Dan, and if you're donating at the $8 or $100 Club levels, we got a special video bonus episode coming this week where Dan O'Sullivan joins us to watch some Dragon's Den and Bar Rescue. Plus we got some big news coming up you won't wanna miss, AND we have the Jibbitz Challenge just kicking into high gear. So get into it!
