Episode 125: Wes Barker v. 200 People

Wes Barker (magician) joins the show to tell us what happens when magicians prank each other, and how it can lead to actual, real-world consequences of the utmost annoyance. The episode itself is also magic, as Wes makes for a great first-time guest as we dive into his recent move to Montreal, having to learn French, and what happens when one of your best friends (who is also a magician) lives next door. The Blocked Boys also get into blue checkmarks, getting suspended on the PlayStation Network, the CN Tower, mythical beasts, and Wes tells us about the time he tried to teach John how to do magic.   If you want even more of the show's beautiful magic, head on over to patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to FOUR bonus episodes every month, including this week, where we debut a brand-new feature, an episode where we teach a non-Canadian podcaster about Canadian pop culture. We kick the new series off with our good friend Lydia Burrell learning about Canadian children's entertainer Fred Penner. It's a great time, and it'll be out Wednesday. Plus!! Our next live show has been announced, and on Saturday, April 24th, David Roth from Defector Media will join us to review some classic sports bloopers.
