Episode 163: Caitlin Durante v. Her High School

Caitlin Durante (Bechdel Cast) joins us to demonstrate just how you can get blocked by your high school, over a decade after graduating from it. Hint: it involves the school mascot. There's nothing cartoony or mascot-like about the rest of the episode though, as we dive very deep into Lego for Adults as Caitlin tells us the story of building the 9000-piece replica Titanic and tries to decide exactly what to do with it now that it's finished. Meanwhile, Stefan bought himself and his partner a model kit for Christmas, but it turns out to be a lot more than he bargained for. Plus, we get into our low-key New Years Eve celebrations, Richard Karn has an NFT, Chris James pulls his best prank ever, and Caitlin tells us about her favourite brand of joke tweet.

If you want to hear many, many more joke tweets (and about jokes, and tweets), head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every month. We just recorded the final episode of Paranoia, the RPG series we've done with Carlos Maza, Carla Mah, Racquel Belmonte, and Josh Buergel, and it is predictable chaos. Plus, we've got brand-new Patreon tiers including a totally revamped $100 Club which will get you access to a super-secret Discord channel AND a Cameo from Stefan and John!
