    Ep 30. "A is for Angry!!!!!!!!"

    Imagine having two incredibly eventful, impactful months and then just talking in circles like you usual do? You don't have to imagine - because we're doing it for you.  Today, Abbey and Michelle are finally back together in their living room. Discussing dating, commercials, and people just being plain-ol'-mean, it's good to be back and on the mic.  We're going to start asking y'all questions of the week. Xo.  Softblock, The Podcast is a new Canadian show hosted by Abbey Humphreys-Morris and Michelle Blight. Softblock is the ramification of two young girls meeting at an underfunded public school nearly two decades ago. Trauma-bonded by standardized testing, high school theatre programs, terrible ex-boyfriends, arts degrees, and s****y inflated apartments, Michelle and Abbey invite you to join their kitchen floor time, their bar rambling, and nearly twenty years of friendship. + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/softblockpod/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@softblockpod  + LINKS Linktree: https://linktr.ee/softblockpod  + CONTACT US  If you have any questions, comments, or stories you wish to submit, send us an email about softblockpod@gmail.com.

    Ep 29. "Split Ends"

    Hello from Toronto! Hello from Halifax! Can you hear us from all the way over here/there?  Okay, we actually recorded this episode in March. We sat across each other in our living room. But the anticipation of separation was just too much. God forbid two besties wish to experience everything together!!!!!!! This week, we talk about The Artist's Way, Abbey's Graduate program, exes, and slowing down. It's a lot of introspection and just a touch of judgement. We're finding the balance.

    Ep 28. "It's Not The 'News' It's The 'Olds'"

    Sometimes you have to be a little behind on reporting. The Academy Awards, our one year anniversary, the start of spring??? Been there. Done that.  This week is a casual chat before Abbey and Mish jump into their busiest season YET. When we're back we gotta start a suggestion box or something.  Softblock, The Podcast is a new Canadian show hosted by Abbey Humphreys-Morris and Michelle Blight.

    Ep 26. "In Sickness And"

    Is it just us, or is it cold and flu season like all the time?  This week, Michelle and Abbey are hot off the birthday press, and they're keeping it casual. Maybe it's nonchalance. Maybe they're recording super last minute. Maybe Michelle has a head cold.

    Ep 25. "Making Move(ment)s"

    It seems like anyone can just say anything these days. Everyone has a platform. Everyone is starting a movement. If you can't beat 'em, why not join 'em?  This week, Michelle and Abbey create a hypothetical "movement," and somehow in the process, prove that they may actually have the talent (or just the audacity) to be really good cult leaders.  All in good fun, babes!

    Ep 24. "Weekend Update"

    It can't be all bad, can it? It can't be all good.... can it? Or must we be one thing all the time?  This week, Michelle and Abbey cover a lot of ground. Kind of like the snow in Toronto. But hopefully less cold and less dreadful.  As the days start getting longer, we're hoping we can all make it to the other side.  But for now, be there for your neighbours. Leave the house. Don't piss on the present. Xo  Softblock, The Podcast is a new Canadian show hosted by Abbey Humphreys-Morris and Michelle Blight.

    Ep 23. "Year of the Four Horsemen"

    Signals, warnings, omens - all of us have tell-tale signs when something is about to go off the rails.  This week, Michelle and Abbey list their personal "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" - instances that may warrant a check-in from a friend before the inevitable crashout occurs. In the wise words of Michelle, who is writing this right now: "What matters not is the demon, but how we exorcise them before they possess our digital footprint." (So far so good.)

About

A podcast about girlhood, community, and talking about things—big and small. Abbey and Michelle overthink out loud, balancing humour, nuance, and a little bit of chaos. Smart but not try-hard, fun but not fluff. No shame, no guilt, just good conversation and a space to figure it all out together.
